Before the stone gate, pale golden light began to condense, spin, and gradually form a dazzling sphere of light.

Inside the sphere of light, faint illusions of mountains, cities, and armies could be seen flowing.

The five options floated before his eyes.

"Why even choose?" Lin Mo said without hesitation, "Gold!"

[Confirm Selection: Golden Legendary Lord Heart]

[Warning: Legendary Lord Heart, carries excessive power, there is a 30% chance of failure during fusion, failure will result in soul damage and permanent loss of Lord job change qualification]

[Confirm?]

"A 30% failure rate..." Lin Mo hesitated.

If he failed, all his previous efforts would be in vain.

"Main body, choose Gold!" the First Clone suddenly said, "We've come this far, it would be a disservice to the blood we've shed if we don't take a gamble!"

"That's right! Legendary grade! It sounds amazing!"

"It's only a 30% failure rate! What if it succeeds?"

"Gamble it all, and you might go from a bicycle to a motorcycle!"

The clones egged him on in a flurry of words.

Lin Mo looked at these "himselves" and suddenly smiled.

Yeah, what was there to be afraid of?

He had clones, after all!

Even if he failed, with his clone abilities, the future was still bright!

"Confirm!" he gritted out.

The golden sphere of light trembled violently, then transformed into a torrent that rushed into Lin Mo's chest!

"Ahhhhhh--!"

An indescribable pain instantly swept through his entire body!

It felt as if thousands of red-hot steel needles were coursing through his veins, etching themselves onto his bones, and churning within his brain!

Lin Mo knelt on the ground, his body convulsing violently.

Golden patterns began to appear on his skin.

These patterns were complex and ancient, like some lost script, or perhaps the veins of mountains and rivers.

The patterns grew brighter and brighter, gradually spreading across his entire body.

"Main body!" the clones wanted to step forward, but were pushed back by an invisible force.

"It's fine!" Lin Mo gritted out, roaring, "I... can hold on!"

The pain lasted for a full three minutes.

When the last wisp of golden light completely merged into his body, Lin Mo's clothes were already soaked through with cold sweat, clinging tightly to his back.

His face was so pale that not a trace of blood could be seen.

But his eyes shone with astonishing brilliance.

[Fusion Successful]

[Congratulations, you are the first 'Legendary Lord' during the closed beta period]

[System will make a global announcement, do you wish to remain anonymous?]

"Anonymous!" Lin Mo blurted out the two words without hesitation.

[Global Announcement: Congratulations to player 'XXX' for successfully transferring to the rare hidden profession 'Lord' and obtaining the Legendary Lord Heart! This announcement is made to encourage you!]

The golden announcement text flashed three times in a row on the retinas of all beta testers.

"Holy shit!"

In the mountains, a player being chased by a wild boar, his pants full of fear, suddenly froze. His steps faltered for a moment.

He was then brutally gored in the backside by the boar's sharp tusks, letting out a pig-like scream of pain.

"It's only the first day since the server opened? And someone has already successfully transferred? And it's a legendary hidden profession? This kind of luck is too insane!"

Beside the blacksmith shop's furnace, an apprentice player was hammering away.

His eyes turned red with envy as he looked at the announcement, almost missing his target and sending his hammer smashing askew onto the anvil, scattering a shower of sparks.

Beneath the Earth God Temple, Lin Mo had no time to pay attention to the announcement.

He was immersed in the shock of gaining new power.
