In that moment, Yous, Merry, and the others stood not far away, scanning the Entities and paying close attention to Yelai's next move. Which Entity would he choose to establish a connection with? It should be those few over there—the one by the left signpost and the one near the window of the yellow house.
If it were me, I would choose those as well; after all, those Entities had a high Rank. A higher Rank means a greater cost for establishing a connection, and it’s likely that after making the connection, I wouldn’t have enough Sequence Power left to do much before being overwhelmed by the cost.
That said, it was true that the Daxia People were special; they had the qualifications to choose those few.
What do you think, Brother Yous?
They whispered among themselves, their expressions filled with envy and curiosity. With so many powerful Entities around, to be honest, they would love to establish a connection with them. This would mean they could become formidable Sequencers, unmatched at their level.
Yous remained silent. He understood what his companions were discussing regarding Sequence. But he also knew that establishing a connection with a high-level Entity didn’t guarantee success. Only those that suited oneself were truly powerful. If one couldn’t wield the power of Sequence or pay the corresponding cost, then even connecting with the highest-level Entity would be meaningless.
"Let’s disperse," Yelai finally spoke up at that moment. He glanced over the Entities present; each one was indeed powerful enough to reside in Cthulhu Town, just as Yous’ companions had said—connecting with them would mean soaring to new heights.
But as Yous thought, establishing a connection wasn’t simply about choosing a high-level Entity; it had to be suitable for oneself.
The Sequence Power I currently possess is manageable; I don’t plan on changing it for now.
Yelai grinned and added, "The cost of connecting with you all is quite substantial; I might not be able to handle it."
The meaning was clear without words. He refused to establish a connection with all the Entities present. Regarding this outcome, the Yous cast their gazes toward Merry; they couldn't understand the Daxia Language and needed Merry to translate.
However, even without translation, they could gauge something from Merry's expression at that moment. He rejected any connection with them. Merry stood frozen in shock.
The Yous were taken aback. As Merry translated Yelai's words, many felt a sense of relief. Indeed, while these Entities were of high rank, the corresponding cost was also significant. The refusal was unexpected but also understandable.
The concept of "cost" was something that Sequencers had to comprehend when establishing connections with Entities to gain their power; it was an unavoidable reality. Entities were not philanthropists. Ruthlessness, coldness, and a lack of emotions defined them. In their dictionary, there was no such thing as compassion.
Establishing a connection with an Entity could grant one their power, but this power came at a price that Sequencers had to pay. If one failed to meet this cost, there was only one outcome: either being killed by the Entity or becoming one themselves.
It was akin to taking out a loan from a bank; the cost was repayment. If one couldn't repay the loan, the bank would naturally come knocking. As for what the specific costs were, it depended on which Entity one sought to connect with. The higher the rank of the Entity, the greater the price that needed to be paid.
Moreover, the nature of these costs varied widely. However, one thing was certain: over time, these costs would undoubtedly pose a danger to Sequencers.
"Big Brother Yous, those Entities won't get angry, right?"
Yous's companion beside him was tense. Refusing to establish a connection with the Entities was no small matter.
