The Dao Lord's Grand Gift Package
"Hint: You have returned to ' The Deer Hunting Platform of Yore '. Time has passed 180 seconds in the Prime Material Plane."
"Extermination Order: Draw or not?"
A mountain path.
A gentle breeze washes over the shallow stream.
The fawn was nowhere to be found.
Roger stared blankly ahead.
He didn't rush to draw the "Dao Lord's Gift Pack".
Instead, I sat there quietly reflecting on the details of my last life—
Looking back on the past thirty years.
The past is as vast and boundless as clouds and smoke.
The voice, appearance, and smile of the person I miss seem to still be right before my eyes.
That feeling was truly magical.
Roger closed his eyes.
Digest it slowly.
In the last life of Legacy of Time.
He unusually refrained from actively seeking more benefits.
Instead, they chose a simple and ordinary daily life.
One reason is that Sir Blue Will encountered the "End of Dharma Era" of Psychic Art!...
After Mystra was born.
The spirit world collapsed.
Psychic Art: Open to decline in an unprecedented way.
The demons that once roamed the spirit world became history overnight.
The abilities of psychics are also disappearing.
Roger also could not escape this calamity.
Fortunately, he transformed the sword master's corpse into Slaughter Authority Rank in the shortest possible time and stored it on the "Present World Panel".
Only in this way can we avoid ending up with nothing.
After the Slaughter Authority Rank has been accumulated.
His Psychic Art were also completely rendered useless.
The world where Far Gaze Town is located has officially entered an era of war and chaos.
Most superhumans who lost their Psychic Art became destitute.
Due to past practices.
Their fate is often tragic.
Emily and Victor were also greatly affected.
But Roger was different.
He too became a mortal.
But he still had a vast fortune! And his father was a powerful nobleman with a title and an army! He returned home immediately after the chaos began to inherit a small portion of the family business.
After cultivating a good relationship with his close elder brother and through some effort...
He successfully carved out a piece of land in the barren "Stag Mountain Range".
He built his own castle, territory, and manor here.
Many people who wanted to escape the chaos of war came to seek refuge with him.
As a result, the population of the territory gradually increased.
In this process.
Other forces have also come to test the waters.
But Roger skillfully countered them all.
In addition, this land is really too remote.
Those who aspire to gain a larger share of the new order give up after encountering setbacks several times.
that's all.
Roger gradually began to lead a life that was almost like a recluse.
He lived up to the character of Blue Will.
His main work is the study of history, and he has made considerable achievements in this field.
Accompanying these tasks.
Roger's Historical Knowledge successfully broke through to 600 points.
But at this point...
Historical Knowledge is actually useless to him now.
After all, he had already obtained the clue hidden in the "Dust of History"—the "last fragment of the Robin Token".
despite this.
He continues to work tirelessly on this research.
Just like a true scholar.
As for why this is the case.
He himself couldn't explain it.
It might just be a passing whim.
I want to try a different lifestyle.
I just didn't expect it.
Thirty years have passed since then.
During this period.
The war gradually came to an end.
The power of ether arose greatly.
The wizard who walked in the wild silently stepped onto the stage of history.
Strange things began to circulate among the people.
Regarding these...
Roger was not without his feelings.
But I don't know why.
Every time he was about to make up his mind to explore the newborn power of the ether.
A deep sense of weariness would rise in his heart.
Like a traveler who has gone through a long journey.
He longed for peace and tranquility.
Moreover, this fatigue is only relieved when seeing the little Mystra, whose growth rate is extremely slow.
Roger was suspicious.
This is a kind of self-protection mechanism that young gods possess.
It awakened Roger's paternal love.
This made it impossible for him to leave her to do anything else.
Roger resisted several times.
final.
Faced with the lovely and innocent smile of young Mystra.
He was defeated.
Roger swore.
This was the first time in his life that he had been defeated by a woman.
In order to satisfy his excessive fatherly love.
He took Emily and her daughter, who had lost their source of income, into his castle.
So they simply raised Mystra as their daughter.
The most fulfilling aspect of raising gods is that—
Her growth rate is far too slow.
It perfectly meets Roger's needs.
Unlike human children.
In just over ten years, he went from being a babbling child to becoming rebellious and withdrawn.
They then become worldly and assimilated into unlovable adults.
As is widely known.
Regardless of the type of organism.
They are all cutest when they are young.
The childhood of the gods is so long.
This gave Roger enough time to exert his fatherly love.
Whenever I see little Mystra's adoring gaze.
Roger felt it was all worth it.
That feeling.
It's much more satisfying than killing an Immortal-grade powerhouse!
So, in addition to his regular work, he did this every day.
His favorite thing to do is to take his daughter running around inside and outside the castle.
Or you could tell her stories in the study.
I wonder if this is a common ailment among gods.
Little Mystra always acted very stupid in front of Roger.
She had heard many fairy tales hundreds of times.
But she kept pestering Roger to tell her the story.
This ability to forget.
Roger even suspected she was a fake Goddess!
Until one time later.
He was so busy with work that he was about to ask the nanny to tell his daughter a story.
But she discovered that her daughter wasn't interested in the stories the nanny told at all.
At this point, he discovered...
It turns out she just wanted to hear him tell a story.
Or rather...
The story itself is no longer important.
She just wanted to be with him.
That's just a child's instinct, isn't it?
After realizing this situation.
Roger found himself devoting more time to his daily interactions with her.
I don't know why.
Those details of life.
It's a very ordinary thing.
He can still recall it clearly.
There was even a warm urge of tears welling up in his eyes.
Besides her lovely daughter.
Roger also received a confession from Emily one day.
He gladly accepted her.
Not long after.
The two held a grand wedding at Owl Castle.
Although the marriage did not receive the blessing of the Arteslo family, from which Blue Will originated.
But for Emily, it was the best gift in the world.
No one knows what burden she carried when she gave birth to the strange child Mystra while still a virgin.
After experiencing those hardships.
She finally found the stability and happiness that belonged to her.
Emily is actually a very interesting woman.
Her appearance wasn't particularly outstanding.
But she has a great personality, is humorous, and is gentle and considerate.
While Roger was spending close time with his daughter.
She always played the role of the one who silently supported them.
After Roger returned from horseback riding with his daughter, she would always prepare delicious snacks and drinks for them; when he told his daughter stories, she would always listen quietly, occasionally using her fan to cool her daughter off, or thoughtfully brewing a pot of tea for her husband.
And during their time together as a couple.
She always managed to create unique surprises for Roger.
If it were the previous third-person perspective.
Roger might feel like he's been force-fed a mouthful of dog food (a Chinese slang term for witnessing public displays of
But when you're actually there...
He felt only boundless happiness! His wife was gentle.
My daughter is adorable.
The world is relatively peaceful.
You can do what you want to do without worry.
Such a life is simply too wonderful.
So much so that when his time was almost up.
Roger is even a little reluctant to leave this world! Even now.
Roger even had an urge to go back and reunite with his wife and daughter!
"Is this the aftereffect of Legacy of Time?"
Open your eyes.
Roger took a dozen deep breaths.
He tried with all his might to clear his mind.
I don't know how much time passed.
The memories of the past gradually faded from my mind.
Those experiences seemed to have been sealed away by him, becoming incredibly blurry.
He can only recall those vivid details when he concentrates.
On the data panel.
Suddenly, a message flashed by.
"Hint: You have overcome the 'aftereffects of the Legacy of Time ' and have received the 'Blessing of the Legacy of Time: Mortal Passerby '"
"Mortal Passerby: Your original intention is unwavering, your temperament is stable, and your emotions are hard to fluctuate;
perhaps.
After experiencing a fulfilling life.
Few other beautiful things can move you anymore.
Effect: Your Willpower (hidden attribute) +10
"Warning: The 'Blessing: Mortal Passerby ' effect has been detected to conflict with your ' Sensitive Constitution ' specialization!"
"Blessing transformation in progress... You have received the 'Blessing of Legacy of Time: Child's Heart '."
"Child's Heart: Your original intention is unwavering, but your temperament and emotions remain as sensitive as a virgin's."
After countless sails have passed.
You can still have the same perfect experience as the first time.
Effect: Your Willpower +8; Your Passion (hidden attribute) +8
"Call..."
Roger let out a deep breath.
He could truly feel the changes in his body and mind.
It was a process akin to metamorphosis.
Although there was no significant improvement in attributes.
But he could clearly feel that after experiencing this transformation.
I've become stronger.
In terms of mindset.
He is completely different from before.
To completely detach oneself from the Historical World.
This allowed Roger to examine his experiences in The Legacy of Time from a higher perspective.
He noticed.
The word that the system repeatedly prompts is—
"History of the Present World"
From this perspective.
Does a corresponding "History of the Present World" exist?
Considering that there are many worlds in Legacy of Time.
There are also many "History of the Present World world".
What is the relationship between these histories and "History of the Present World"?
Back then, the Dao Lord defied the laws of time.
A divine seed, suspected to have been brought from the realm of Between Purgatory, was planted on the Spirit World Cliff.
The seed took root and sprouted within the Spirit World Cliff, draining the entire spirit world dry.
Ultimately, however, she chose to be born inside Emily's womb.
The Dao Lord himself planted melons but failed to reap any harvest.
He tried to escape the forbidden spell but died because of it.
Is this history's punishment?...
About these.
Roger dared not think too much about it.
I was afraid of falling into an endless mental trap again.
Anyway.
This journey through time.
He achieved the Slaughter Authority Rank prowess, obtained the Robin Token, and also amassed a considerable amount of Historical Knowledge and Milestone Points. Aside from burning a few brain cells, it was basically a risk-free, high-profit venture! No.
"What a loss, a Cindy!"
Roger silently reminded himself.
As for Vilan.
Roger didn't seem to care much.
Judging from the conversion efficiency of time-space Psychic Art.
Even if the other party becomes Ancient One.
In the Real World, it would probably be difficult to even get an upgrade.
Roger just needs to get promoted before him.
In addition, there are many trump cards.
I'm sure I can crush him!
The thought of Vilan.
Roger was suddenly filled with renewed energy! "Extermination Order!"
"Draw it for me!"
"Slap me hard!"
"Extermination Order: Mixed Extraction in progress..."
"Drawing results: 3 failures, 6 successes. You have obtained 4 specializations and 2 ranks from ' Dao Lord Wu Jiu '!"
"Position: Your Funerary Authority Rank +0.06"
"Funerary Authority Rank: You can earn extra income from presiding over funerals and burial ceremonies."
Your skill 'Ritual' +200;
You can easily appease the newly deceased zombies and prevent them from causing trouble;
You can gain XP from purifying the dead;
You gain higher regional reputation from performing funeral rites; your emotional resistance to grief is increased by 20%.
The authority that this position may transform into:
Death; Earth; Music.
You have gained a random rank feat: Suona Specialization.
"Suona Specialization: You can easily master this incredible solo instrument; you have a basic grasp of the 'suona' making techniques."
"This Dao Lord... used to perform rituals?"
See here.
Roger was completely baffled!
never mind.
Anyway, he has a lot of strange and unusual specialties.
It's not like we're missing out on this one point.
As the saying goes, having many skills is never a burden.
If things really don't work out in the future, I can always work in the funeral industry to make a living...
"What kind of funeral is there in Mystra?!"
Roger kept shaking his head inwardly.
If it weren't for the fact that the Funerary Authority Rank could potentially transform into authority over death, etc.
This thing might really be a useless slot!
After all, times have changed.
These days.
The environment on Mi Star has deteriorated to the point that even cremation is considered a grand funeral.
"Position: Your Lightning Authority Rank +0.04 (non-Lightning)"
"Lightning Authority Rank: You can comprehend the mysteries of heaven and earth by observing the evolution of thunder, and thus gain supernormal benefits (please be vigilant, being struck by lightning will not increase your XP).
Your maximum voice volume increased by 40%;
Your lung capacity increased by 40%;
On stormy nights, your training speed doubles (limited to martial arts); you gain the ability to predict regional weather 8 hours in advance; possible powers to transform into: lightning; magnetic fields; weather.
You have gained the Random Rank Perk: Seize the Initiative with Sound.
"Seize the Initiative with Sound: Consumes 2000 Qi. Before attacking, suddenly roars, which has a certain chance to stun the enemy and greatly increase the morale of your own troops.
Once the Seize the Initiative with Sound takes effect, the dizziness lasts for at least 15 seconds.
Note: In large-scale wars.
If both sides have the ability to "Seize the Initiative with Sound" and successfully shout at each other, then the final effect will depend on the volume of their shouts.
"This is good."
Roger showed a hint of relief.
Whether it's Lightning Authority Rank or Seize the Initiative with Sound.
The quality is not low.
The former has the potential to wield power over three individuals who will become very powerful in the later stages of their lives.
The latter was one of Roger's favorite fighting styles.
He used to prefer ambushing people silently.
That was a last resort in order to First Strike initiative.
Now we have the ability to "Seize the Initiative with Sound".
He could have easily launched a surprise attack face-to-face! As for whether the act of 'shouting upon meeting' was undignified...
Let those who like to fuss over such things go underground and think about it!
"I'll need to practice my voice in the future."
"I wonder if there are any martial arts techniques or anything that can amplify the sound."
Thinking this way.
Roger looked at the four specializations given to him by the Dao Lord.
"The Heavenly Evasion Technique: It allows one to briefly travel back in time and arrive at a History of the Present World."
However, avoid staying there for too long.
Otherwise, they are easily assimilated.
"Gui Water Yin Lightning: Collect a small amount of water element and Lightning Element, purify them with 'qi' and encapsulate them."
It can be used as a projectile to attack enemies.
It can also be ambushed within a specific formation and detonated suddenly.
Multiple Gui Water Yin Lightning linked together or detonated simultaneously will produce better results.
Note: The effect of detonating a single Gui Water Yin Lightning is equivalent to the 7th-level spell 'Frost Thunder Blast'; detonating 9 at the same time will produce the power equivalent to 9th Ring spell.
If 99 Gui Water Yin Lightning are properly detonated, they will produce an effect close to that of 11th Ring Spell.
Explore the rest on your own.
What does "figure it out on your own" mean?
"I just want to know if 9,999,999 ' Gui Water Yin Lightning ' can achieve the effect of a level 21 spell!"
If possible.
Roger is now free to start rubbing! With his patience.
Ring 21 is indeed quite difficult.
But he could still conjure up a 15-ring "Gui Water Yin Lightning Formation" with 9999 stones in a matter of minutes!...
I spent most of the day organizing data and outlining the next volume, so I'll have to update less frequently. We'll continue with a burst of updates tomorrow. There's also a character card bonus chapter after this one, ending on page 321. I'll try to update earlier tomorrow, though I'm sorry, but I still need your monthly votes, cough cough.
