[Binder: Lincon]

[Talent: Lord(blue)]

[Main occupation: Longwind Lord]

[Professional ability: Rule Edict]

[Rule Edict: As a Lord, you have the highest authority to define rules in your territory. Every month you can issue a law with actual effect in your territory. This law will last for one month until the next law takes effect or overlaps.]

[Ability: Production of Fine Shrine, Junior Rune Blueprint, Xingyi Fist, Firearms Mastery, Rune Array...]

[Strength: 132--Agility: 129--Spirit: 108--Charm: 56--Reputation: 3186]

"Huhuhu..."

The wind helped the fire, and fires were ignited everywhere in the dense forest. The heavy rain could not extinguish the raging flames caused by the Rune Stone storm.

The withered branches crackled in the Flame, and the shadows reflected on the ground were like the ferocious claws of monsters, or twisted into terrifying faces.

Lincon's face was slightly pale. After successfully changing his main profession, a surging force appeared in his body, constantly transforming his body.

The muscles are remodeling, the blood is boiling, and the bones throughout the body seem to have evolved, becoming tougher and able to carry more powerful force.

And Lincon can clearly feel that a Energy Pellet seems to be condensed in his Dantian.

The surface of this Energy Pellet is covered with mist, which can travel around the body with his thoughts, or be released from the body. It can be used as his ultimate boxing move to enhance the power of the shot. It can also form an air shield for defense.

"If you only look at physical enhancement, my strength should have completely entered the ranks of C-Rank enhanced ability users."

Lincon spread out his left hand and controlled the Qi emitted by Energy Pellet in his Dantian to move to the wound location.

Wrapped in this vapor, the wound is healing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Compared with the previous healing speed, it has improved by an unknown amount.

Now, he feels like he can beat a hundred of his former self.

Changing jobs seems to be a quantitative change that leads to a qualitative change.

Not only did the main professional attributes increase by 30 points, but there was also an additional professional ability.

"Rule Edict!"

Regarding this ability, Lincon is still unclear about the specific role it can play, but judging from the introduction of the ability, it seems to be biased towards the direction of territorial rules.

Could it be that he follows his words?

Probably not, this is too exaggerated.

This ability only exists in mythology, and even in those fantasy novels, it only appears in the final stage.

"Perhaps we can try to issue an order after returning to the fortress."

Lincon took a deep breath, looked around at the fire that was about to attack him, gathered up some usable things scattered on the ground and put them back into his bag.

And Shadow Sword.

If it weren't for Shadow Sword's guardianship this time, he would have died long ago.

At this time, Shadow Sword was lying quietly on the ground. The sword had been broken into several sections, and the black light that always lingered around the sword was gone.

Lincon picked up Shadow Sword and put it gently on his forehead.

"..."

As a faint ray of consciousness entered his mind, Lincon's face showed joy.

Just be alive!

As one of the first plants to follow Lincon, Shadow Sword is the same as Sunlight Sunflower. Lincon has special feelings for them and does not want to give up easily.

As long as Shadow Sword is not dead, there is a possibility of recovery with Plant Cultivator's ability.

Shadow Sword sank into the shadow under his feet, and when he arrived at the previous location of Pale Wraith, there was only a pile of black coke left on the ground.

In the center of the coke, a fist-sized C-Rank Dark Matter Crystal fell.

Lincon picked up the crystal and threw it into the bag.

This is a good thing. Dark Crystal is required for many plant upgrades. The more powerful the advanced plants, the higher the quality of Dark Crystal required.

But just as he was about to leave, he suddenly stopped and turned around to rummage through the pile of charcoal.

The coke was turned over, kicking up thick dust, and then Lincon stopped moving and took out two dark glass eyes from inside.

Just now, he felt in a daze that there seemed to be something reflecting light in the coke, but he didn't expect that there was actually a residue.

"Are these...Pale Wraith's eyes?"

Lincon put his eyeballs in front of his eyes and looked at them for a while, and then he felt as if his consciousness was being dragged into some kind of dark space.

He quickly pulled away and looked at the two eyeballs in his hand in surprise.

"There are still some characteristics of Pale Wraith left on it, and even Purifying Firestorm cannot be damaged. Using this thing, you might be able to cultivate plants with special abilities."

Lincon carefully put away his eyeballs and found that the fire around him was getting more serious, so he immediately fled outside.

With the guidance of Shrine, he didn't have to worry about getting lost in the sea of fire. He quickly escaped from the fire and arrived outside the dense forest.

The Shrine that was lit by him was still burning like a candle in the darkness.

It's almost safe here.

Being able to complete the main job transfer task this time was still mostly due to luck. Although the fire might burn down the entire dense forest, Lincon had no other choice.

It is impossible to put out this fire with the manpower of this era, we can only let it extinguish slowly.

As for the rain...Lincon I have never seen a wildfire extinguished by a light rain.

"This dense forest is not big. As long as it does not affect the fortress, let it burn slowly."

Fortunately, the plants in the forest have lost their self-awareness under the influence of Pale Wraith, which makes Lincon unable to feel the plants' need for help, which is a good thing.

He took out a candle from his backpack, lit it, and turned around to leave.

But before he had taken a few steps, he heard another rustling sound coming from behind him.

Could it be Black Insect?

Lincon looked back at the soaring fire coming from the depths of the jungle, and saw groups of black shadows rushing out from inside.

Carrion Rat.

This group of Carrion Rat is extremely numerous and usually hides in the forest or in dug holes. However, this dense forest fire forced them all out.

Seeing a group of Carrion Rat the size of wolf dogs rushing towards him, Lincon frowned slightly and held Purification Dagger around his waist.

Several rays of cold light flashed, and two Carrion Rat were instantly stabbed through the brain.

Then four, five... anyone that came close to Lincon was easily dispatched by him.

As for more Carrion Rat, they fled in all directions and disappeared directly into the thick darkness.

Their main purpose is not to attack Lincon, but to escape from the sea of fire.

After leaving more than a dozen corpses, nothing came out of the dense forest again.

Lincon looked at Sunlight, who was still more than a hundred points short of reaching one thousand on his own panel, and let out a long sigh.

"Forget it, it's still a long time before dawn, let's just collect a thousand Sunlight before returning to the fortress!"

Holding a candle in his hand, he walked into the darkness and once again started the work of hunting dark creatures.

However, compared with before, the efficiency has obviously been greatly improved.

Longwind Fortress.

Luo Qian As a watchman, he is mainly responsible for waiting for dawn and ringing the gong to tell the time for the residents in the fortress.

He always pays attention to the time. Every time it is about to dawn, he will sit next to Shrine at the door of Mushroom House in advance, waiting quietly for Dark Veil to recede, until the first ray of light falls in the world.

"I really don't know why those people left the fortress. You are so good, so what if you have to face Black Tide again? I believe Longwind Fortress will be able to get through it safely."

Luo Qian is only sixteen years old, and his parents died in the early stages of Dark Descent.

At that time, he was young and wandered with the crowd. He encountered good people and bad people, but no matter what, he was lucky enough to survive in the end.

He has stayed in many shelters controlled by ability users, but Longwind Fortress is the only place where he feels at ease.

Fresh air, strange Mushroom House, vigorously growing plants... and no need to worry about being evicted anymore.

He still remembers that night when the owner of this fortress pulled them, who should have died, out of the darkness of death alive.

The gorgeous flower that released endless light and heat and stood in the sea of fire was engraved in his heart like a brand.

"Those people will definitely regret it!"

Luo Qian stared at the blurry face in Shrine, the candle held in the palm of his hand emitted a warm and bright light.

If there really is a god in the world, it must be the Lord of the City!

At this moment, a beam of light shot towards the earth.

Even if it rains all night, the sun will still rise the next day.

"The sunrise seems to be a few minutes earlier today."

Luo Qian glanced at the dirty watch on his wrist and hurriedly got up from the ground. He first said goodbye to Shrine, stepped on the road reflecting the mottled light and shadow, and sounded the gong.

"It's dawn, it's dawn..."
