The apocalypse has arrived. Monstrous beasts run rampant, while humanity huddles in its bases, struggling to survive under the law of the jungle.
Lin Chen unexpectedly awakens the core ability [Myriad Clones]. His level determines how many clones he can have, and experience can be transferred in either direction between him and his clones. The greater the level difference, the more terrifying the experience conversion rate!
Main body at level 4, clone at level 0: an eightfold experience conversion rate!
Looking at the nearly terrifying experience loss, Lin Chen sets himself a cardinal rule of survival: unless he’s facing certain death, he will never risk his main body’s foundation. If a clone can fight for its own survival and earn experience, he won’t waste a single bit of his main body’s resources.
From then on, the apocalypse gains a legend of staggering contradictions.
The main body keeps a low profile, stays safely in the rear, and steadily levels up while accumulating experience at zero risk. He guards the bottom line of maximizing his gains, keeping his trump cards buried deeper than anyone can imagine.
His clones are vicious and ruthless. They slaughter monstrous beasts, take down enemies, charge into deadly lairs, and break impossible deadlocks. They earn experience with their lives on the line, carving a fearless madness into their very bones.
The Black Snake Gang sets a trap to assassinate him? His clone turns the tables, destroys their hideout, and finds ironclad proof of treason, sending the entire gang to ruin.
Beast traffickers smuggle weapons and leak defense plans? His clone infiltrates their deal, records all the evidence, and lets the guard corps wipe them out in a thunderous raid.
A city-destroying beast tide arrives ahead of schedule, the base defenses are riddled with holes, and hundreds of thousands of civilians are in mortal danger?
Lin Chen sits calmly in the rear, links his consciousness to thousands of clones, taps the panel with one finger, and says coolly:
“The main body stays put. The clones go first. In this apocalypse, either you survive to the end by keeping your head down, or you go mad enough to become invincible.”
One main body, ten thousand clones. Keep your head down to the extreme, and you become invincible!
