You can tell from "The Joker".

The power of Actor's Mask should not be underestimated.

These days, items with added status bonuses are already rare.

What's more, it boosted it by 0.33 in one go!

Although it is only an artistic rank that is not suitable for combat.

But Roger believed he would be useful in the future.

After reading the description of the Joker.

Roger became even more interested in the "Actor's Mask".

He then tried to click on the descriptions of the other two buffs.

But this was the only feedback I received.

"Hint: You have not completed the ' Clown Trial ' and are unaware of the 'Domestic Abuser' and 'Idiot' buffs..."

Note: You are currently using Actor's Mask.

Only the command to obtain the Joker buff can be received;...

After you complete the Clown Trial.

You can then unlock the next level of performance.

"It needs to be unlocked again?"

Roger was a little surprised.

But then it seemed reasonable.

It's Actor's Mask.

Its usage requirements and performance relevance are quite normal.

"According to this mechanism, now that I'm wearing a mask, I can only play the clown?"

"What if we unlock them all? Wouldn't it become random instead?"

Roger felt that this was not quite reasonable.

However, now is not the time to delve into this.

The next moment.

His gaze shifted to the second item Axiya had given him.

It was a thick and strong one...

Candle.

"Lie Detector Candle (Consumable)"

Instructions: Light this candle.

Within the range of candlelight.

If someone is lying.

Then the candle will automatically extinguish.

This is indeed a tool with a simple and straightforward function.

Roger was interested in trying it out.

He then lit the candle.

A soft glow emanated from the candle wick.

The warmth also spreads through.

Judging from the appearance.

It looks no different from a normal candle.

It's just thicker and stronger.

Roger looked at the candle.

He pondered for a moment and said, "I'm very handsome!"

The candle burned steadily.

There wasn't the slightest reaction.

Axiya, standing beside her, remained silent.

Roger's face lit up with joy.

He then added:

"I am the most handsome man in the universe!"

Poof! The candle went out mercilessly...

That extinguishing speed.

It's even faster than Roger's sword-drawing speed!

"There's actually someone more handsome than me!?"

"This is not scientific!"

Roger glared indignantly at the candle.

The latter remained silent.

Axiya, standing next to her, completely turned her head away.

Roger saw this.

So they lit the candles again.

Then the third question was posed:

"The Master Qu Feng is dead."

A miraculous scene unfolded.

The candlelight suddenly dimmed.

It was nearing the point of being extinguished.

Suddenly it lit up again.

Then it went out again.

It lights up again.

This cycle repeats itself repeatedly.

Roger stared at the candle wick for a long time.

It was discovered that it could never break out of this cycle.

"What's the meaning?"

"Could it be that the Master Qu Feng is constantly in a cycle of death and resurrection?"

Roger's heart tightened.

At that very moment.

The Copper Dragon standing nearby could no longer stand idly by.

She spoke in a weak, tense voice:

"Lord Demon Slayer."

"Lie Detector Candle enters this state when it encounters a problem that it cannot verify itself..."

"This shows that it cannot answer this question."

Is that so? Roger looked disappointed.

He even thought he could make a difference by exploiting the "lie detection" mechanism.

"Too."

"Axiya's strength speaks for itself."

"We shouldn't have too high expectations for what she offers as tribute..."

Roger adjusted his mindset at that moment.

After extinguishing the candles.

He looked at the third prop.

It was a miniature house.

It feels as soft as clay when you hold it in your hand.

But it contains extremely strong resilience.

Roger sensed the power of spatial laws hidden within it as soon as he got his hands on it!

On the data panel.

Hint: You have obtained ' The Copper Dragon's Maze '

"The Copper Dragon's Maze: After Activation"

You can place an underground maze with 999 rooms in a specific location.

Through the Heart of the Labyrinth.

You can expand, modify, and upgrade the maze.

You can also recruit specific monsters or guards to join the dungeon.

Once you feel you are ready.

You can spread rumors to lure greedy Adventurers into exploring the dungeon.

You can set your own ticket price for the maze based on local price levels.

It is recommended that the amount not exceed one-third of the average annual income of Adventurers.

You can add a small amount of treasure and let Adventurers who have explored the area spontaneously spread the word for you.

But please don't leave any evidence against you.

Although the relatively positive image of the Copper Dragon is more popular with the public.

However, enraged Adventurers might still change their minds and switch their goal from treasure hunting to dragon slaying.

Please remember.

You're here to make money.

We are not here to fight with others.

Every war is meaningless.

All of these represent a tremendous drain on capital!...

For more information, please refer to "The True Dragon Maze Forging Guide".

This is a very sophisticated maze.

Roger was willing to call it the ultimate money-making tool! He was examining the interior structure of the maze.

He couldn't help but scrutinize Axiya repeatedly with a suspicious look.

The latter became shy under Roger's gaze.

Unable to contain himself, he whispered in defense:

"I've only used it a few times."

"Um... this was given to me by my friend..."

"Actually, besides making money, the maze's main purpose is to attract the attention of bystanders and also to gather intelligence..."

"You can keep it as a little toy to play with."

Roger nodded.

He has no interest in accumulating wealth.

However, the maze itself is still quite interesting.

"From now on, when Clear Spring Sect holds celebrations..."

"It would also allow everyone to participate in exploring the maze!"

"Tickets are secondary."

"Having fun is the most important thing!"

Roger thought to himself with great conviction.

After checking the three props.

Roger looked up at Axiya with delight and said:

"I really like these little things."

"Regarding what you said before, I want to say that if things really come to that point, I will absolutely not let you down."

"But before that, I still want to..."

Speaking of which...

Roger's senses suddenly trembled slightly.

That instant.

He suddenly turned his head.

He stared eastward.

"Who?!"

Roger shouted sharply.

Within sight.

At the border of the Water Moon Kingdom.

A ghostly figure flashed by.

Then it disappeared without a trace.

A hint of surprise flashed in Roger's eyes.

Based on one's own perception.

They couldn't even pinpoint the spy!

"Take it easy!"

Axiya hurriedly advised, "That's Wind Spirit."

"She's very timid. Ever since my condition started to deteriorate, she's only dared to gaze at the edge of the plane from afar..."

"She probably sensed that a battle was taking place here, but she didn't dare to come closer."

Roger was slightly taken aback. "Wind Spirit?"

"Yes..."

Axiya said with certainty:

"Wind Spirit is the youngest and most timid among us, but also the purest."

"The last time I saw her, she was still very protective of herself."

"Those who follow her are also the safest."

"By the way, you seem to have the blessing of the Wind Spirit Clan on you, right?"

Roger blurted out:

You mean dandelions?

"Her people are Wilderness Fairy?"

Axiya gave an affirmative answer to this question, "It's her."

"She is rather timid and shy. If you refuse her invitation, she may never feel comfortable seeing you again."

Roger scratched his head.

He immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as they're one of our own, that's fine.

He was curious about Wind Spirit.

But it won't disturb you excessively.

As long as we ensure that this place is not spied on by demons in the short term, it will be fine.

However, when it comes to Wind Spirit...

Roger then thought of another problem—

The Wilderness God on the Ancient Desolate Continent.

Is this too much activity? We need to know.

The Wilderness God and the Plane Will collectively went berserk and united.

This kind of thing can only happen in the dark ages after the complete fall of the Star Lord!

But when Roger brought this issue to the forefront...

Axiya gave an affirmative answer:...

"That's true."

Ever since the god of Quenan severed himself from the human world.

We will no longer be able to sense His power.

at the same time.

The power of all the Wilderness God is surging.

The planet's constraints and protections on us have been greatly reduced.

Some of the Wilderness God were corrupted as a result.

Became ambitious.

Even the Plane Will and the Plane Will, which should have been suppressed, became active.

This situation is very worrying.

Although I don't want to admit it.

But Lord Quinan.

Maybe it really is...

Why!"

"Is Quinan gone?" Roger was a little incredulous.

At least in the "Raging Sea Blood Vortex" incident.

Quinan also helped Beya open the God-Human Passage.

unless...

That was achieved by Beya using some kind of tool left behind by Khunan.

"Can something as powerful as a god be destroyed?"

Roger sighed inwardly.

The next second.

He hesitated and said:

"Speaking of Quinan."

"I have a friend who believes he is the reincarnation of Khunan."

Axiya was stunned for a moment.

A deep sense of confusion flashed in her clear eyes:

"Is the friend you're talking about yourself?"

Roger shook his head.

He was just about to explain himself.

Brandon just happened to walk by.

He seemed to have heard Roger say what he had just said.

He then took the initiative to showcase himself, saying:

"The friend he was talking about..."

"That's me!"

"I believe I am the reincarnation of the god Khunan. What do you think?"

These words were spoken.

Axiya's reaction was quite strange—

Her face seemed to turn red.

However, the skin and scales of the Copper Dragon are naturally reddish-brown.

After a while.

She managed to squeeze out, "Um... it doesn't seem like it."

Brandon said irritably, "Hey!"

"Isn't that a bit disrespectful?"

Roger glanced at the guy's preening and posing manner.

He then glanced at Axiya's uneasy expression.

Then, unable to hold back, he coughed softly and said:

"That's already giving them a lot of face..."

This brought an end to the little episode involving Brandon and Axiya.

Roger quickly surveyed the surrounding area.

What's rather strange is...

The massive number of monsters that had been entrenched in this area vanished without a trace in a very short time!

Through "The Ultimate Hunter".

Roger determined the direction the monsters had gone—

It is Sub-Plane! This is evident.

The monsters and demons that suddenly appeared near the Water Moon Kingdom are definitely involved.

It is highly likely that Aimerhua and his group manipulated and directed it.

This well-trained retreat further heightened Roger's vigilance.

The fact that these demons retreated so quickly probably means they don't want to give up.

Instead, they are plotting a further attack!

Therefore.

Roger did not rush to recall the Primal Dwarves to the territory of the Water Moon Kingdom.

Instead, they told them the good news first.

They were gathered near the "Ancient Furnace".

That's why I chose this place.

One reason is that it is close to the ground.

Roger was meddling in the affairs of the Red Valley Descendants.

On the one hand, they also have to keep an eye on the situation on all four sides of the battlefield.

He left behind "exotic fragrances" throughout the Ten Thousand Year Mountain Range.

He also assigned two wolf cubs and many other spies to keep a close watch on the war situation.

There is a chance to persuade someone if they want to stand up for you.

He would then use the special effects of ambergris to infiltrate the battlefield and claim a share of the spoils.

On the other hand, it was because the dwarves placed several seals when they withdrew from the Water Moon Kingdom.

The place where Roger met Axiya before.

It's actually just the outermost area of the Water Moon Kingdom.

Leaving aside Secret Vault No. 1, which is located in the core area.

The place where the dwarves usually live is about 200 kilometers away from there!

And they want to return to the Water Moon Kingdom.

That means we have to break part of the seal.

Roger learned this from the Dwarf Race chieftain.

The key to this part of the seal lies in this seemingly abandoned "Ancient Furnace"! Only by activating the Ancient Furnace can this be achieved.

Only then could they enter the outer barrier.

Returning to my former residence!

That is precisely why.

Previously, a group of dwarves attempted to bypass Aimerhua's surveillance and take over the Ancient Furnace.

Unfortunately, it was discovered by Aimerhua and others.

Ultimately, they could only retreat and patiently wait for a better opportunity.

And in their interactions with the dwarves.

Roger also learned that the Ancient Furnace was no ordinary object.

It was the super tool used by the ancient sages of Honggu to forge divine weapons!

The internal design of this object is extremely ingenious and cannot be replicated.

The Primal Dwarves' unique "Black Gold Forging Method" and many super heat-resistant metals can only be melted in the Ancient Furnace!

In the chronicles of Honggu.

Each time the Ancient Furnace is started.

Each of these will give birth to a divine weapon that will be famous throughout the Celestial God Game!

all in all.

The Dwarf Race sang his praises to the skies.

Roger's heart was pounding as he listened.

He couldn't help but ask the other party to forge weapons.

The dwarves did not hesitate for a moment.

They all agreed immediately.

Not only that.

They directly passed on their family's secret techniques to Roger! Along with them came the forging method for "Tian Yuan Alloy," a material unique to Red Valley! Looking at the series of knowledge displayed on the data panel...

Roger truly appreciated the benefits of high prestige and charisma! Imagine if you had a dark-skinned, hideous guy instead.

Even if they saved the lives of an entire family and preserved their treasure.

You might run into a wall when you try to ask for a forging opportunity! Let alone be taught secret techniques.

The level of charm.

This determines how smoothly one can interact with indigenous people.

in this regard.

The differences between people.

It might be even bigger than the size between a human and a dog!

"Hint: You have gained knowledge (Black Gold Forging Method)"

"Black Gold Forging Method: The Primal Dwarves Forging Secrets."

Specifically designed for casting black gold props;...

All black gold items have the potential for growth.

"You have acquired knowledge (Tian Yuan Alloy)"

"Tian Yuan Alloy: An alloy with extremely high strength and unlimited ductility potential"

He acquired two unique skills.

Roger's hands were itching to get started.

The Primal Dwarves happened to have some stock.

So he took a piece of Tian Yuan Alloy ingot.

To everyone's astonishment.

It began to ravage it violently—

But the incredibly hard alloy ingot changed shape in Roger's hands like clay.

The surface of the alloy ingot sometimes bulges.

It sometimes dents.

Sometimes a hole is poked out of it.

A few minutes later.

Roger finished his "Barehanded Forging" with a sweat pouring down his face! He looked at his work with great excitement.

After glancing at the data column...

Roger's blood pressure immediately spiked!...

"Hint: Congratulations! You have successfully created an Alloy Doughnut!"

"You have created a work of art."

You received 10 inspirational insights;

Every 100 inspirational insights can be exchanged for 1 complete artistic inspiration.

"You've reached a new milestone: the unconventional artist."

"The Unconventional Artist: Calorie-Free Donuts, Genius Creations!"

"Corresponding title: Crossover Chef (The probability of producing exceptional works when you engage in crossover creations is greatly increased)"

"What the hell are those donuts?!"

Roger couldn't help but question the meaning of life:

"I clearly made a bracelet!"

"And it was modeled after Laozi's Vajra Bracelet!"

As he spoke.

He opened his palm.

Show the creation you just made to the dwarves around you.

Before he could even speak...

A series of chattering sounds came through the sensory system: "What amazing donuts!"

"Exactly the same?"

"May I have a bite?"

Okay.

Roger gave up.

He gave the donuts—oops—I mean the golden bracelets—to the Dwarf Race as a gift to witness their friendship.

The dwarfs were moved by what they didn't understand.

They also learned that Roger was planning to forge a divine weapon in order to achieve Second Ascension.

So one by one they volunteered.

Whenever Roger encountered any difficulties with forging...

They will all step forward!

even.

Roger didn't even need to complete the preliminary work of forging.

The dwarves will be in charge of almost the entire process.

He only needs to clean up the mess! Roger didn't want to take advantage of the dwarves.

But I couldn't refuse their kind invitation.

These Red Valley Descendants are honest people.

Roger helped them.

If we don't give them a chance to get it back.

They'll probably be frowning all the time!

then.

Under the influence of these various factors.

Roger eventually handed over the blueprints for the "Coiling Dragon Spear" to the Dwarf Race chieftain!

This is the Ascension-grade weapon he's preparing to forge! It's also one of the long-unseen exclusive weapons for the Hidden Hero!

It can be deduced from the blueprints.

The Coiling Dragon Spear possesses exceptional AOE (area of effect) and one-on-one combat capabilities.

It is one of the more difficult weapons to master among the Hidden Hero' weapons.

This is also an item that is currently missing from Roger's arsenal.

He planned to take this opportunity to forge himself a suitable spear—

It has top-tier materials such as "Nemesis Blood" and "Tian Yuan Alloy".

In addition, there was the dwarves' solid craftsmanship and Roger's excellent character.

This weapon is sure to get an SSS+ rating!

The dwarves are extremely mobile.

That night.

Roger was still switching screens to check the situation on the surface battlefield.

The area near the Ancient Furnace is already bustling with activity.

The preliminary work for starting up the furnace is quite complex and tedious.

But the dwarves did it with great enthusiasm.

Roger sat there observing their movements and expressions—

These dwarves seem to have returned to a time of peace.

They seemed completely unafraid of the demons attacking again.

Regarding this scene.

Roger was also speechless.

But at this very moment...

Brandon, reeking of alcohol, suddenly leaned over and patted him on the shoulder:

"Aren't you envious of their optimism?"

Roger nodded.

The latter stretched out a big yawn.

After lying down in relaxation, he sighed:...

That's because they have unwavering faith in you.

"Hey, the Twin Stars Guardian, the exorcists of Mystra..."

"With such a prestigious and upright person around, even wealthy ladies wouldn't close the door while sleeping naked, right?"

"I'm so envious..."

As they talked...

A soft snore came from behind Roger.

Roger turned around in astonishment.

But they found that Brandon was already sleeping like a log!

This feeling is actually quite complex—

He was both indignant and resentful.

There was also a sense of helplessness.

More than anything, there was satisfaction and apprehension.

Is this what it feels like to bear the expectations of others?

Roger silently sensed the emotions of the crowd.

Night deepened.

The dwarves are still working.

Brandon's sleep became even more unpredictable.

Roger was pretending to be asleep.

Suddenly, he opened his eyes.

Within perception.

There's movement on the other side of the spatial rift!

In the darkness and silence as vast as the starry sky.

A dense swarm of dark shadows is landing!

"Heavenly Vision and Earthly Hearing!"...

"Warning: You have discovered ' Demon Lord Little Yura '"

"You've discovered the ' Blue Blood Legion '!"
