Dominate the Storm

For the last piece of equipment remaining, Lin Yuan didn't even check its stats and tossed it directly to Tie Chui.

"It's for you."

Tie Chui reached out and grasped it, and a grey quiver appeared in his palm.

[Flaming Quiver - Auxiliary Equipment]

[Quality: Epic]

[Equip Requirements: Ranged, Agility >= 6000]

[Attributes: Strength +3000, Agility +5000]

[Trait 1: Can condense a Flaming Arrow every 3 seconds. Upon hitting a target, it causes an explosion with an attack radius of 30 meters. Can accumulate up to 10 Flaming Arrows.]

[Trait 2: Can condense a Scorching Arrow every 30 seconds. Upon hitting a target, it deals additional magic damage equal to 1% of the target's maximum HP. Can accumulate up to 5 Scorching Arrows.]

It was another top-tier piece of ranged equipment.

Tie Chui chuckled, "Thank you, Master." He accepted it happily.

After the distribution was finished, Lin Yuan walked to the position of the spine.

Looking at the magic circle still emitting a faint blue light, Lin Yuan conceived a bold idea.

He reached out his right hand and touched the magic circle.

A prompt sounded.

[Yes/No: Restart the Fusion Circle?]

[Probability of successful continued fusion: 0.35%. 99.65% probability of instant death.]

Lin Yuan cursed, "Damn it, who the hell would choose to continue the fusion?"

"Alan, it's up to you. Tear it down for me."

Lin Yuan and the others retreated far away, leaving Alan alone on the spot.

Having not participated in the battle to kill the BOSS earlier, Alan had been eager to try.

Upon hearing that she needed to dismantle the Fusion Circle, she immediately revealed an excited look.

"I'll slash!"

"I'll slash!"

"Ahahahahaha!"

This crazed appearance caused the outside world to fall into a dead silence.

"Is this still that gentle Alan?"

Mu Tianxing was dumbfounded.

He had seen Alan at Lin Yuan's house before; every smile and movement was like that of a well-bred young lady, the perfect ideal lover for an 18-year-old youth.

"How long has Alan been like this?"

"Doesn't she need to see a psychiatrist?"

Lin Yandong chuckled, "It's no problem."

"She is usually still her gentle self; she only gets a bit crazy when fighting."

You call this a bit crazy? Do you have some misunderstanding of the word 'crazy'?

Mu Tianxing complained inwardly, but since everyone else was unfazed, saying anything else would just make him look low.

Without Asukel presiding over it, the magic circle was not very sturdy.

After seven or eight consecutive axe strikes, the magic circle was smashed, and a thirty-meter mushroom cloud appeared on the spot.

Alan swooped down from the sky with a 'whoosh'.

Just as she was about to land, Lin Yuan snapped his fingers, and Alan appeared behind him, perfectly unharmed.

[Successfully destroyed the Fusion Circle, stopped Asukel's fusion plan, exposed Zeratul's true identity, and helped him recover the Star Beast's power. Perfect clearance of the current Dungeon.]

[EXP +500,000, evolution points +500,000, Starry Sky Legend +1]

Starry Sky Legend: Your legend has begun to spread above the starry sky. As a human who dared to challenge Purgatory, many powerful beings are placing bets on how long you can survive under the watchful eyes of demons.

"Dared." Lin Yuan chewed on these two words repeatedly, his tone cold.

"I really don't like these two words."

"And those bullshit powerful beings who want to see me make a fool of myself."

"I will keep living."

"For a very, very long time."

Just as Lin Yuan was preparing to finalize the rewards, he suddenly heard Zeratul's urgent voice in his ear, "Leave here quickly."

A white Teleportation Gate appeared in front of Lin Yuan.

Without any hesitation, Lin Yuan stepped into it and subsequently appeared in the subspace.

Zeratul's body was suspended in mid-air.

Rich starlight fell vertically, and immense power was poured into him.

Zeratul's body developed wounds of various sizes; this was because the energy had reached its limit. If it continued, there was a possibility of exploding and dying.

Fortunately, there wasn't much starlight left. After the last trace of starlight poured into Zeratul's body, Zeratul let out a painful roar, "Ah!"

In a short period, Zeratul completed two consecutive evolutions, advancing from a Tier 5 Dark Templar to a Tier 7 Dark Archon.

After completing the evolution, Zeratul's level instantly increased from level 50 to level 70.

He had lost too much power before; even after absorbing it all back, he could only reach level 70.

Landing back on the ground from the air, Zeratul looked at the slowly dissipating Star Beast with a complex expression.

Lin Yuan walked over, his eyes filled with admiration.

"Not bad, you've really upgraded."

Before, you wore a ragged black cloak, held a dull grey dagger, and walked hunched over, looking like you escaped from a refugee camp.

Now, it's different. A black, flowing crystal shell tightly wraps your entire body, maxing out your sense of mystery. Your height has also increased from 1.5 meters to 2 meters.

Whoever stands there and doesn't take a second look must definitely be blind.

"From now on, I will live as Zeratul."

Once this sentence was spoken, it meant the Star Beast had completely become a thing of the past.

"That's right." Lin Yuan patted Zeratul on the shoulder.

"People need to look forward; you can't live in the past forever."

"Look at you, isn't it great now?"

"A Tier 7 Dark Archon, you're already a big shot."

"Tier 7, in your world, might be a powerful creature." Zeratul shook his head.

"But within the Protoss, it is not considered an absolute powerhouse."

"Tier 8 Arbiters and Apostles, Tier 9 Prophets."

"They all possess the power to destroy the heavens and the earth."

"Interesting." Lin Yuan showed an interested expression.

"So the Protoss are actually this strong? Then why were you beaten by bugs and forced to flee in panic?"

Zeratul rolled his eyes at Lin Yuan.

"Which race dares to say they can go head-to-head with the Zerg?"

"You humans?"

"Without even needing the Zerg Queen to act, a single Tier 7 Overlord could crush your world."

Zeratul had a straightforward personality; he never held back what he wanted to say and also liked to retort.

Lin Yuan was retorted and had a half-smiling expression.

"Oh ho, your strength has increased, and now you're talking tough too."

"If a Tier 7 Overlord dares to invade, I'll be the first to summon you over."

"I'll let you feed the bugs."

Zeratul: ...

When it came to retort, Lin Yuan had never feared anyone.

Zeratul was rendered speechless. He shook his head.

"I am leaving. After the Star Beast's corpse dissipates, a Domination Storm will appear."

"That is a contingency left behind by the Light Archon, intended to unexpectedly control the powerhouse who killed the Star Beast."

Upon hearing this, Lin Yuan sneered.

"How despicable."

"Light Archon, what an insult to that name."

"I suggest you stay here." Zeratul stood face-to-face with Lin Yuan.

"The Domination Storm can only take effect on a person once, regardless of whether the target is controlled or not."

"Although the Human race and the Protoss are both in the Order faction, as your strength grows, you are likely to be targeted by malicious Light Archons."

"You have a Mental Protection Helmet; enduring the Domination Storm here is better than being secretly backstabbed by someone one day."
