After watching the cosmic scenery for 4 minutes, Mu Bei withdrew his gaze from outside the transmission light path.
There were still 36 seconds until he would be forced into deep sleep.
He planned to use this time to review and analyze his journey in the Derivative World - Apocalypse Frenzy.
Without the suppression of the World's general consciousness, Mu Bei's Intelligence attribute had become 100.
Now, he felt that his thinking speed was too fast, so fast that he had the illusion that time had slowed down considerably.
Although these 36 seconds seemed short, they could be used for a relatively complete review.
He asked himself, were there any oversights in this trial that could be improved?
Mu Bei thought of this:
He had actually given his permanent summon an opportunity to backstab him when his own condition wasn't so good.
After the Side Quest - Submission was completed, and before A Ling had eaten the corpse of the World Child and Overlord-level creature, the Tyrant, A Ling's loyalty was 63.
Lacking Strength, coupled with her life not being her own, she naturally didn't have the courage to betray him.
Although Mu Bei felt that the number 63 was a bit low at the time, it wasn't a big problem; he could just imprint his thoughts on her when he returned.
Thus, possessing absolute Strength and believing he controlled the life and death of the Zombie Lord, Mu Bei didn't wait for A Ling for even 1 minute, and instead left the City Lord's Mansion alone in a hurry to collect the World Power and treasure chests in Jinzhou City.
In the next few hours, Mu Bei, who was completely in a killing frenzy, didn't look at A Ling's information again, and naturally didn't know that her information had been updated.
The Paradise was not a nanny for the Contractors; it wouldn't actively remind the Contractors of this. Mu Bei admitted that he had indeed been negligent in this regard and would pay attention to it in the future.
After eating the Tyrant's corpse, the Zombie Lord, whose virus crystal had grown back, naturally developed the ambition to be on equal footing with its master. This was reflected in the loyalty, which dropped from 63 to 33.
If Mu Bei had discovered an hour earlier that A Ling's loyalty had dropped to 33, he would have immediately found a safe place to recover his stamina;
He would also have eaten and drunk all the remaining food and water in his storage space to face the upcoming siege of tens of thousands of Zombies in the best possible condition;
Instead of waiting for the Zombies to surround Mu Bei, and only then, when he was completely in a killing frenzy, realizing that A Ling's loyalty was problematic.
Why was he in such a killing frenzy at that time?
Mu Bei summarized the reasons into two points:
1. The temptation of World Power;
2. The strong sense of crisis brought by the Luck attribute, which could only decrease and not increase.
The second reason needs no further explanation.
The first reason, when expanded, is as follows:
When Mu Bei was adding points to himself with World Power, the feeling of becoming stronger made him intoxicated and captivated.
This experience, this feeling, was more addictive than drugs for Mu Bei, who had lived in a sterile room for 18 full years and had never received any positive feedback from his body.
Moreover, World Power could genuinely make Mu Bei stronger without side effects, which was completely opposite to drugs that harm the human body.
Therefore, Mu Bei couldn't find, and didn't want to find, a reason not to embrace the temptation of World Power.
However, World Power itself might not have any problems, but the person using World Power might not be!""
Facing the temptation of World Power, Mu Bei found that he seemed to have become a different person.
Mu Bei found that he had become very pure now, with his mind full of how to efficiently kill everything that could be killed and turn it into his World Power.
Mu Bei also found that he had lost patience in doing things, and his violent tendencies had become very serious. Not only did he have no psychological burden when killing his own kind, but he even felt a sense of heartfelt joy.
But, was this a bad thing?
Different environments require separate discussions.
In the real world, this was undoubtedly a very bad change for Mu Bei, because he would become a criminal, a fugitive, a murderer, and a great unstable factor disrupting society.
But in the Paradise, this was exceptional talent!
This talent is not that talent; it does not refer to Mu Bei's talent ability named Heaven Forsaker, but rather his mindset, his psychological quality.
Had his psychological quality already become this strong? This was truly wonderful.
He was simply a genius of killing, and coupled with that unparalleled talent, people like him deserved to stand out in a place like the Paradise, where the weak were prey to the strong!
Mu Bei told himself in his heart that one should not be carried away by success; he still knew the principle that things would turn around for the better after reaching the extreme, but at this moment, the corners of his mouth still curved upwards uncontrollably.
Wait, how did his train of thought go off track?
Mu Bei had originally planned to review his experiences in the trial world properly, but somehow, his train of thought uncontrollably shifted towards updating his self-perception and the almost smugness after his self-perception was updated.
It was probably because his Intelligence attribute had increased too much in a short period, which inevitably made his thoughts seem a bit jumpy and chaotic.
Let's get back to the main topic and continue the review.
Mu Bei could have avoided the situation where A Ling backstabbed him if he had stayed by the Tyrant's corpse after killing the World Child.
Waiting for A Ling to come over, watching it eat the corpse with his own eyes, watching it transform and evolve with his own eyes, and watching its virus crystal grow back again with his own eyes.
Afterwards, Mu Bei would sigh about how such a small probability could happen to him, while simultaneously confiscating A Ling's newly grown virus crystal, completely eliminating the possibility of A Ling betraying him.
However, if Mu Bei were given a chance to go back to the past, he would not give up the gains of several blue treasure chests and hundreds of ounces of World Power for such a small amount of stability.
Just like normal people wouldn't stop drinking water because they might choke on it, or stop eating because they might choke on food.
Among the tens of thousands of Zombies that A Ling summoned to attack Mu Bei, at least 99% of them couldn't even break through Mu Bei's defense.
Therefore, if Mu Bei were given a chance to go back to the time before A Ling ate the Tyrant's corpse, he still wouldn't wait for his traitorous summon.
At most, he would rest a little longer, eat some food and drink some water to replenish his stamina, and then start harvesting the World Power and treasure chests from these Zombies.
Mu Bei believed that the only thing truly worth reflecting on was 1 point—
That is, after his physical attributes had become so much stronger, some concepts and behavioral habits developed when his physical attributes were lower should be changed in time!
For example, don't eat during strenuous exercise; it's not only bad for the stomach but also easy to choke.
This concept is appropriate for ordinary Humans with single-digit Constitution attributes. However, for Mu Bei, whose Constitution attribute is 64.5, it is no longer appropriate.

【Contractor will be forced into deep sleep. Please be prepared.】
“Hoo~”
Mu Bei exhaled deeply, preparing to be forced into deep sleep.
When he woke up, he would probably be in the Order Paradise, within his exclusive room.
What would the Order Paradise be like?
Previously, by opening a box, Mu Bei had obtained a profession scroll called Fire Elementalist, which let him know that there was such a thing as professions in the Paradise.
Then, what powerful profession would he transfer to in the future?
Mu Bei was really looking forward to it.
“Dong——”
With a dull thud, Mu Bei completely lost consciousness filled with anticipation.
Before losing consciousness, he felt something bypass the defense of his skull and hit his brain hard.
