Back in the burning ruins.
Li Feng kept his eyes fixed intently on the spinning numbers of the system window.
His breathing was slightly uneven, and a thin trail of blood still lingered at the corner of his lips.
Despite the catastrophic pressure still pressing down from the False Crown in the distance, all of his attention was locked on the result of this single gamble.
The second number continued to spin at high speed.
Then—
It suddenly stopped.
0
Li Feng's pupils contracted.
The leading digits now read 01.
But it was not over yet.
The next number spun for only a brief moment before locking into place.
0
Then another.
0
And another.
0
One after another, the digits continued stopping on zero with merciless consistency.
The window in front of him filled with an ever-growing string of zeros.
And ech new number made the air around him feel heavier.
Li Feng's heart clenched tightly.
