Chapter 1609: Chapter 1609: Choice
Of course, Li Yao doesn’t need it, but the other team mbers might.
Although everyone in Starfire is considered among the top-tier players, there are still significant weaknesses that require extensive ti to address.
However, choosing the first reward could completely shorten this process. Of course, for soone like the enchantress, the second reward might actually be more suitable.
It depends on individual circumstances to make different judgnts, and Li Yao won’t interfere.
At this point, the live broadcast finally ended. Although many people were disappointed they couldn’t see Starfire’s choices,
this was unavoidable. It pertained to others’ secrets and privacy, and even the officials had no right to disclose it.
Li Yao directly chose the third reward: making a wish.
With Li Yao’s choice, everyone around him disappeared, and it felt as if he were in a dark underground palace. In front of him was a dimly lit statue.
The statue was huge, seemingly enshrouded in a layer of black mist, making it impossible for Li Yao to discern the true appearance of this so-called Creator God.
Even when Li Yao used his Heart Eye, it still felt like trying to see through fog—vague and indistinct. At tis, Li Yao felt like the Creator God’s face looked like his own. Yet, when he snapped out of it, the Creator God’s visage morphed into the Moon God, or even into a hazy starry void.
Beneath the statue was a censer, with three pillars of green incense burning brightly. This indicated that the ceremonial setup was complete, and Li Yao could now fulfill his wish.
“System: You gaze upon the Creator God’s statue and experience an epiphany, comprehending the true essence of Void Text. The Creator God is an embodint of the Creation Dragon, the personification of natural order in the Void, ruling ti, space, and life creation within the Void Universe, representing the source of all order. Bathed in divine radiance, you feel purified and elevated.”
“System: Due to your mastery in archaeology, a special scenario has been triggered, elevating your archaeological expertise to the peak of master level.”
Li Yao was struck with a sudden realization. He finally understood that this so-called Creator God was one of the six ultimate beings of the universe, symbolizing life, creation, and order—the Creation Dragon.
The Creation Dragon, Void Lord, and Dead Spirit King Scarlet Skeleton are all entities of the sa tier, representing the apex of cosmic Void power. Those Ancient Gods and Titans are, in comparison, two levels weaker.
Only True Gods are close to their level of existence.
Moreover, it was Li Yao’s proficiency in archaeology that allowed him to trigger this special scenario and reap considerable rewards.
Among these rewards, his archaeological experience was elevated to the point where Li Yao was just one step away from becoming a Great Grandmaster of archaeology.
The Creation Dragon embodies extres in many powers, one of which elevated Li Yao’s Natural Resistance by a level, effectively immunizing him against damage and effects from natural-elent skills below Tier 3.
Additionally, the Fla of Life, which Li Yao had obtained from the Red Dragon Queen, was also enhanced.
The Fla of Life possesses strong adhesive combustion and contagious properties, and it can increase bloodsucking abilities. When Li Yao had first acquired it, it was a decent weapon.
However, as Li Yao’s level increased—especially after obtaining the Star Bow—the Fla of Life had beco sowhat insignificant.
But now, with the Creation Dragon’s strengthening, Li Yao felt as if he had gained so kind of protective power. The accompanying life flas, though not as potent as those of Dragon Clan princes and princesses, were no weaker than those of formidable Giant Dragon warriors.
If one were to categorize its levels, the protective power would be divided into stages: hatchling, growing, mature, elite, warrior, prince, and Dragon King.
Previously, Li Yao’s Fla of Life was equivalent to the growing stage. Now, it jumped several levels, reaching the warrior stage of the Fla of Life.
Moreover, Li Yao sensed that the Fla of Life was akin to an egg, still evolving and far from its peak state.
At the sa ti, Li Yao’s ti-related abilities also received enhancents.
Originally, Li Yao’s ti powers stemd from two sources: archaeology and his equipnt. His archaeology-based Ti Deceleration could slow ti down by one-third of a second. Now, Ti Deceleration could reduce ti by a full second, representing an imnse improvent for soone of his level.
More critically, the equipnt-based Ti Trace ability had now beco Li Yao’s own skill. Its recordable duration increased from twelve seconds to a full minute.
This leap in quality didn’t directly boost Li Yao’s combat power but unlocked unprecedented possibilities for him.
In particular, the Path of the Strong quest presented Li Yao with many new options.
However, Li Yao’s current priority wasn’t the Path of the Strong quest—it was the wish ceremony.
“System: The wisher must complete their wish before the incense burns out. Otherwise, the opportunity to make a wish will be forfeited.”
The system’s prompt helped Li Yao refocus. He ceased examining the Creator God. Considering his current strength, it was normal that he couldn’t comprehend the deity’s face. The rewards were what mattered most. While he had already gained enhancents and mastered Void Text, who wouldn’t want more rewards?
“System: Based on your current state, the wish categories are divided into equipnt, attributes, skills, mysteries, Path of Law, Eye of the Heart Training, pets, chanical Pet Manufacturing. Please choose one.”
In his previous life, Li Yao had never been fortunate enough to receive the blessings of a top-tier cosmic powerhouse, but he’d seen posts on forums bragging about such experiences, so he had a good sense of the process. Thankfully, it wasn’t overly complicated.
“Choose chanical Pet Manufacturing.” Li Yao made his decision without hesitation.
He didn’t need equipnt; if he wanted a Divine Artifact, he could likely obtain one, but being too weak to wield one might bring him trouble. Attributes were unnecessary, as he had his own ways of strengthening them.
Skills? He had plenty. Mysteries were the sa—even his Gale Mystery wasn’t fully deciphered yet; having too many mysteries wouldn’t be practical.
The Path of Law? He wasn’t even a Demigod yet. Thinking about Laws was far too premature; he couldn’t control them anyway. Eye of the Heart? It was essentially a personal dreamland akin to a customizable growth-focused space, which he didn’t need. He’d obtained one in his previous life but didn’t find it necessary anymore.
As for pets? Li Yao didn’t lack them either, and he could intentionally hunt down any mythical creature he desired.
What he truly needed was chanical Pet Manufacturing. Though Li Yao was capable of crafting pets himself, he could only create ones like Fire Eagle at best. And even then, Fire Eagle’s intelligence was a fortunate outco of his nurturing efforts—it was already the weakest among his pets.
Creating superior chanical pets still demanded high-quality blueprints. Without top-tier blueprints to aid him, any pets he crafted would essentially be substandard products.
Li Yao knew where to find those blueprints, but he wasn’t at max level yet and couldn’t reach such locations. Moreover, he had too many responsibilities at the mont with no free ti to go searching.
His territory and the Abyss posed significant challenges; he couldn’t remain a hands-off leader forever. Additionally, the imminent Path of the Strong quest demanded his imdiate attention. Completing the dungeon’s first task ant dealing with the Withered Sun Legion—after all that, he’d likely be well past level 100.
Obtaining a crushing-level chanical pet right now would be imnsely helpful for tackling all these challenges…
