Apocalypse: I Can See the HP Bar, Killing Monsters Drops Loot - Chapter 1605: 675: Comprehending the Law Domain

Chapter 1605: Chapter 675: Comprehending the Law Domain

Wang Tao faced two critical difficulties in his Seventh Level ascension.

The first was obtaining Fire Attribute Law Power, ensuring that all his basic attributes met the threshold. This was completed after the arduous slaying of the Fire Beast, granting Wang Tao the qualification to ascend to the Seventh Level.

Now he faced the second critical difficulty—comprehending the Law Domain. Failure meant death.

In Wang Tao’s opinion, this was far more dangerous,

Because when battling the Fire Beast, at least he had [Shadow Protection] as a safety net—if he couldn’t win, he could always escape and wouldn’t die. But comprehending the Law Domain was different; failure meant death. According to Wang Tao’s intuition, no current survival methods could help him.

At this moment, Wang Tao’s priority wasn’t finding life-saving solutions but thinking of ways to increase his odds of success in comprehending the Law Domain.

Fortunately, all the Power of Laws he had now was fire-based, meaning the Law Domain he needed to comprehend was definitely fire-related. So next, his primary mission was to research “fire.”

This might sound abstract to outsiders, but deep down Wang Tao already had some inklings. As long as he understood fire well enough, he should be able to successfully comprehend the Law Domain.

Back at the villa, Wang Tao suddenly turned to the group and asked:

“Are there any other Fire Awakened in our base?”

“Yes, but not many.”

Lan Yulian immediately nodded.

Lan Yulian was nominally the head of the Starfire Society, and aside from Wang Tao’s team, they occasionally recruited other talents into the society. Because of this, she had a clear understanding of such matters.

“Tomorrow, summon all of them in my name.”

Wang Tao thought for a moment and said.

There were various types of Fire awakenings. He had only some understanding of his own Fire awakening, but very little about others’. Although their strength wasn’t comparable to his, the saying “three people are always able to teach one another” held true. By studying others’ Fire awakening abilities, he might gain some inspiration.

“Alright!”

Lan Yulian immediately nodded.

“And are there any Water System or Ice System Awakeners…”

Wang Tao suddenly thought of something. If he wanted to study the Fire Attribute, he couldn’t just study fire alone—he needed to research related attributes too. But just water and ice seemed insufficient, so Wang Tao added:

Th𝘪𝙨 ƈh@pτҽr 𝐢𝕤 p𝟬ʂṯ𝙚𝕕 b𝓎 𝒌𝑖𝖙𝕖ṅ𝙤𝘷ɛḷ

“Water System, Ice System, Wood Attribute, Earth Element, Metal System, Wind Element… Summon those Awakened as well!”

Water and fire restrain one another; when water meets fire, it results in a situation where the stronger gets stronger, and the weaker gets weaker. Ice is a variant of water; though it also restrains fire, its restraining effect is weaker than water’s, while fire’s restraining effect on ice is stronger.

Then, according to the Five Elements theory, wood produces fire, fire produces earth, and fire restrains metal… So Awakeners of wood, earth, and metal attributes also had to be summoned. As for wind, it could amplify fire’s effects—”fire thrives with wind, wind strengthens the blaze”—thus the two were complementary…

Whether these elements proved useful or not was secondary; the important thing was to be thoroughly prepared. If failure in comprehending the Law Domain resulted from insufficient ability, Wang Tao could accept it. But if failure stemmed from carelessness, he would die with regrets.

“… No problem, I’ll notify them right away.”

After hearing Wang Tao’s extensive list, Lan Yulian nodded repeatedly.

The base’s current top priority was to provide Wang Tao with every convenience during his Seventh Level ascension.

Summoning these individuals for discussions was nothing. If Wang Tao needed them to sacrifice themselves, they would have to comply—even if forced.

Once the tasks were dispatched, Wang Tao left everything behind and had a proper rest.

The battle with the Seventh-Rank Fire Beast, though brief—lasting barely ten minutes—had subjected Wang Tao to unprecedented pressure. His spirit had been extremely tense during the fight, and now that he had successfully slain the Fire Beast, he felt elated. However, such drastic emotional swings could impair judgment, so he needed to rest and regain composure before diving into the study of the Law Domain.

…

The next day, Wang Tao woke naturally. Upon stepping out, he saw Lan Yulian already waiting outside the villa.

“Wang Tao, everyone is here; a total of 52 people.”

“So few…”

Wang Tao was somewhat surprised.

Not only did he need Fire Awakened, but also Awakeners of other systems—yet together, there were only fifty-some people.

“No choice. Most Awakeners’ abilities belong to systems…”

Lan Yulian shrugged.

“Alright then, fifty people will have to do. I should be able to learn something from them.”

After quickly eating breakfast, Wang Tao headed to the training grounds outside the villa to meet the group.

Upon seeing Wang Tao, everyone’s faces lit up with excitement.

Lan Yulian hadn’t told them Wang Tao needed their help; instead, she had said that after slaying a Seventh-Level creature, Wang Tao had many revelations and wanted to share and exchange insights with them.

The group had been so excited they couldn’t sleep all night. After all, this was Wang Tao! If they could learn even a single move from him, forget about the seemingly out-of-reach Seventh Level—it would likely be enough to elevate them to Level 6, and their combat abilities within their tier would undoubtedly be among the best.

Many of them had initially doubted if they had misheard. To be chosen by Wang Tao for this sharing session felt like an incredible stroke of luck!

Lan Yulian had just informed Wang Tao of this misunderstanding, and Wang Tao nodded in understanding.

It wasn’t exactly a lie, since Wang Tao genuinely intended to exchange insights with them—progress could only come through mutual exchange. Wang Tao wasn’t the sort to hold back; he would undoubtedly share his experiences without reservation.
