Metamorphosis

The card depicted red Plankton Algae, a strange Plankton Species that could bring inanimate objects to life. It seemed his lineage was quite good. The card shrank, solidifying from its ethereal form, and landed in Lu Li's hand. He carefully put it away, Lu Li, with Lilith, chose to return.

Only three survived this instance. The other two failed to reach the hospital due to unforeseen circumstances. Fortunately, they both possessed medical skills, so they healed each other and managed to stay alive. This could be considered a blessing in disguise.

Inside the stronghold in Hexi, a flash of light appeared, and Lu Li and Lilith appeared inside. This was because Lilith was Lu Li's possession, which was why they could teleport normally. He squeezed Lilith's hand to feel its hardness.

Lilith and the mask have achieved 100% fusion, but because she has a physical body, she cannot Integration into the mask like the Shadow Assassin, which is somewhat troublesome.

In the real world, there's nothing strange about it, at least not outwardly. Lilith's human-headed, snake-bodied appearance, while quite beautiful, would probably get her called the police immediately if she walked down the street.

Lu Li carefully sensed Lilith's body. The Shadow Magic within the Shadow Mask, combined with Lilith's own Hybrid Magic to transform herself, would allow Lilith's body to transform from a physical entity into a semi-energy life form in just a few days. At that time, Lilith could be absorbed into the mask, just like the Shadow Assassin Claw Ghost, and summon similar units.

Lu Li glanced speechlessly at the Snake Woman who was in some kind of state, then sat down at the workbench and began to think about the gains and losses of this mission. This mission was actually extremely abnormal, and the abnormality was the Bronze Tree.

Without the Bronze Tree, there would be no Morgue or other alternate dimensions. So, following the normal pattern, ten players would initially compete for eight medical qualifications, or allocation numbers. After healing their injuries, they would begin to complete tasks assigned by the hospital, such as dealing with rampaging living beings or other dangers hidden within the hospital. In the not-so-large hospital, players would have to outwit and outmaneuver each other to win these tasks. In this situation, the players would essentially become the hospital's experimental subjects.

Based on the information revealed by the female doctor, Lu Li confirmed that the hospital had discovered they were time travelers. Therefore, when the hospital issued missions, they were actually using them as experimental subjects to test the game players.

However, the above situation did not occur, or rather, it was about to occur but was stopped due to external factors. Because of the Bronze Tree, more than a dozen alternate dimensions appeared in the hospital. This was only what the hospital discovered. According to the Bronze Fruit on the Bronze Tree, there are actually more than forty alternate dimensions.

Thus, the players, who should have been fiercely competitive, were scattered. Lu Li only encountered another player Min Zidao, and then met the Marine Species in the alternate dimension. If Lu Li hadn't unexpectedly obtained knowledge about the Bronze Tree, he would have been stuck inside the Marine Species, waiting to die. This level of difficulty was completely inconsistent with the mission.

Subsequently, Lu Li caused a chain reaction due to the Bronze Tree, and other players died inexplicably, which was completely inconsistent with the competitive nature of this instance.

"So, in reality, the game developers don't have complete control over the dungeons. The appearance of the Bronze Tree directly disrupted everything in the dungeons." Lu Li thought of the last four words of the Bronze Tree Prayer: "The work of the Yellow Emperor."

This ancient ancestor of humanity is a legend among legends. He is also recorded in the history books compiled by the Yue Kingdom. After the great calamity of the previous era, all ancient civilizations Destruction, leaving only a few humans to survive.

When a small number of humans gathered together and lived in tribal form, the Yellow Emperor was born, defeated a powerful enemy, unified all the tribes living in the east at that time, established a state, and later ascended to heaven on a dragon with three thousand women.

This is the earliest historical legend or myth of the Eastern Kingdom. However, many relics from the previous era were later unearthed, and the technology and history of the previous era became known. Thus, people discovered that there was also a Yellow Emperor in the previous era.

Later, scholars speculated that the Yellow Emperor of this era must have learned about the Yellow Emperor of the ancient era from somewhere, which is why he used the name of the Yellow Emperor. His history teacher had mentioned this before, but now, Lu Li seriously doubts whether the two are the same person.

"To have three thousand women in one night and ascend to heaven on a dragon?" Lu Li muttered. If this was just an exaggeration, it would be fine, but if it was a real event, Lu Li really wanted to know what kind of person could have three thousand women in one night. Unless they weren't human? Lu Li inexplicably thought of the maid in the dungeon before last. Only someone with tentacles as their prototype could do that.

After putting an end to this wild and unrestrained daydream, Lu Li began to plan his own development. Three of the nine Shadow Mask now housed different types of troops: the Assassin -type Shadow Assassin, the frontal combat Claw Ghost, and the healing and troop-generating Lilith. Lu Li needed some ranged troops next, such as archers.

Then there's his own skills. After completing three dungeons, his skill bar increased from three to four, allowing him to add a new skill. Lu Li wanted to create a detection skill to deal with increasingly complex dungeons.

As for the other three skills, Tranquility Meditation Method is still usable, but upgrading it should begin as soon as possible. We can't rely solely on Moonshadow; we also need to find ways to upgrade and optimize it. The effect of Touch of Fear needs to be strengthened, which will probably require adding a few modules. The operation of Shadow Spear needs to be changed; relying on language to activate it is a bit slow. This time, we need to try to acquire Accuracy Module.

Having completed this mission, aside from winning the Plankton Species in the lottery, Lu Li's only gains were the five modules and 500 Game Points from the dungeon mission. Adding the 700 Game Points he hadn't used up last time, Lu Li now has a total of 1200 Game Points. The new modules he obtained this time are: Energy Module - Battle Qi, Rule Module - Awakening; Stability; Integration, and the Special Module - Space.

Some of these modules were unsuitable, while others could be incorporated into his plan. After thinking for a moment, Lu Li first posted the Energy Module - Battle Qi in exchange, as he was still in dire need of the Magic Module.

Skills are easy to deal with; it's just a matter of acquiring and combining modules. What's really causing Lu Li some trouble is his own shadow ability. He hasn't forgotten that a Bronze Fruit turned into smoke Integration into it. Although he hasn't felt anything unusual, and the game's attribute panel hasn't shown it, that doesn't mean it didn't happen.

Lu Li looked up at the Snake Woman who was staring at him in a daze not far away. His mind raced, and a vague idea formed in his head...
