Thermal Stone

On a steep cliff, a black robot climbed upward with effort, carrying a green figure on its back. Since this stretch of the path could only be traversed by climbing, Mu Fengyu took the opportunity to educate Siyou Qilong on the common knowledge of the World Tree.

He started with the general situation of the nine worlds, race selection, class composition, weapon quality, various items, and the two hundred World-class Items in the game that were the most broken.

Recalling how Mu Fengyu had clapped his hands yesterday to envelop everyone in a domain, and how today a single NPC had been sucked into a domain, Siyou Qilong asked curiously.

"Captain, what is the effect of your World-class Item? Does it always envelop everything, or can you choose?"

Mu Fengyu smiled slightly and replied.

"My World-class Item is called Cecilia's Flower. Its effect is to create an independent domain within a certain range, which can isolate everything inside from the outside world."

"Inside, I can create Traptrix that share my race, and it can also automatically generate monsters of indeterminate levels, such as predatory plants."

"As for whether it envelops everything or if I choose, that depends on how I use the domain. I can adjust the range and intensity of the domain to decide whether to envelop the entire team or target only a specific individual."

Siyou Qilong's eyes flashed with envy as he heard this. He knew full well how important such an item was for support in battle, so he couldn't help but ask.

"Captain, how did you obtain this item? Was it very difficult?"

Mu Fengyu shook his head and said with a smile.

"Actually, it's not difficult. As long as you are also a shareholder of the World Tree, you can get one for yourself."

"Even if you really want one, you aren't guaranteed to get it. World-class Items are divided into two types. One type appears randomly in the nine worlds, like the strongest 'Twenty'."

"The other type is tied to specific achievements. For example, the first World-class Item to appear, Fortuna's Coin, has an acquisition condition of hitting the gold prize within five pulls ten times in a row in the prize pool."

"That thing is still hanging next to the prize pool to this day. Its ability is to boost probabilities. For skills like percentage-based instant kills, using this World-class Item makes them a one-hundred-percent instant kill."

"It can also reduce an opponent's probability-based skills to zero. Although the effect is quite good, the limitations are too great. Dungeon bosses cannot be instantly killed, and it's easy to be countered in PvP. As long as the opponent carries an item that ignores certain effects, the holder doesn't have many good options."

"Even someone as wealthy as me doesn't want to waste money to whale for that."

After hearing this, Siyou Qilong's envy for Mu Fengyu grew even stronger. As an ordinary player, he now understood how difficult it was to obtain a World-class Item.

Not only did one need sufficient luck, but one also needed to put in tremendous effort and time.

Yet Mu Fengyu, as a shareholder of the World Tree, could easily obtain such items for himself, which was undoubtedly a massive advantage.

He couldn't help but feel curious and asked again.

"Captain, do you have any other World-class Items?"

Mu Fengyu tapped him on the head and said irritably.

"There are only two hundred World-class Items in the entire game. Aside from the one I started with, our group has only managed to get one, Heaven-Supporting God, after all these years. Do you think we don't want more?"

Siyou Qilong felt a little disappointed, having hoped to learn about more World-class Items, but he understood what Mu Fengyu said and let out a complex "oh."

Seeing Siyou Qilong's expression, Mu Fengyu couldn't help but laugh. He patted Siyou Qilong and said.

"Wipe that disappointed look off your face. Isn't it just that you want to see a World-class Item? I have an item here that can let you take a look."

Upon hearing Mu Fengyu's words, a flash of joy crossed Siyou Qilong's eyes. He nodded, wondering what kind of item he would take out.

Mu Fengyu pulled a red book with gold-trimmed edges from his backpack. Pictures of various items on the pages flipped before his eyes as Mu Fengyu explained.

"This is the Proof of the World. It can display all known World-class Items—that is, those that have already been obtained or made public."

"There are a total of one hundred and fourteen World-class Items here, and only fifty-six have been made public. It seems those who have obtained World-class Items don't want to make a..."

At this point, Mu Fengyu's voice trailed off. He looked closely at the Proof of the World, which indicated that there were three World-class Items nearby.

In addition to his own Cecilia's Flower and the stolen Heaven-Supporting God, there was a consumable World-class Item: the Thermal Stone. The Thermal Stone was a consumable World-class Item that allowed one to submit requests or proposals to the operators.

It had a wide range of uses; it could be embedded in items like swords or armor, or used as a power core for Golems. As long as one knew the correct method, one could continuously obtain them.

Mu Fengyu looked at the information on the Proof of the World with a flash of surprise in his eyes. He hadn't expected the Tears of Angels to be able to obtain this World-class Item. Could it be that they knew how to acquire the Thermal Stone?

Regardless, he had to take this place down to find out. He turned to look at Siyou Qilong, his eyes shining with excitement as he said.

"Little Siyou, it seems our luck is good. We actually encountered another World-class Item here. Hurry up and charge up; when the time comes, I'll let you get your hands on the Thermal Stone."

"Captain, although I really want to get my hands on a World-class Item, we should still be cautious. After all, items of this level definitely aren't easy to get, and there are only two of us, so isn't it..."

Mu Fengyu nodded, agreeing with Siyou Qilong's view. He put away the Proof of the World, returned it to his backpack, and said.

"You're right, we do need to be careful. However, since we've already encountered it, we can't easily let this opportunity slip by. Now, just close your eyes and charge up; that's all you need to do. With me here, there won't be any accidents. Trust me."

Although Siyou Qilong was a bit nervous, he chose to trust Mu Fengyu and began to climb upward with all his might.

Through his efforts, they soon approached the summit.

At this moment, Mu Fengyu noticed that something was wrong on the mountaintop. He could see a massive figure on the summit, radiating a holy aura.

Siyou Qilong struggled to climb up, and the sight before him left him stunned.

What he saw was a pure white eyeball with wings, hovering in the air and emitting a holy light.

On those six pairs of wings, dense rows of eyeballs were arranged neatly, like a cold and ruthless army, staring coldly at him and Mu Fengyu. He stammered as he asked.

"Captain, what kind of monster is this?"
