Chapter 290: Chapter 168: Divine Inscription
Just as she was about to speak, the distinct ringtone of her phone went off in her pocket. Her eyes lit up with surprise, and she quickly broke free from Aileen’s embrace to retrieve her phone.
She exclaid with so excitent, "Eh? The boss has replied, and he says he’ll be back soon!"
Aileen’s excited expression froze and she seed a bit distracted. She turned to look at her master and cautiously asked, "Master, can we go out for a few days? Just a month?"
Mina smiled, "Of course, but you can’t leave Dongwu City."
"Yay!" Aileen was instantly thrilled, and she turned to Luoning, asking, "Luoning, want to join?"
"No, I’ll wait here for the boss," Luoning shook her head, content with her fulfilling life and not wanting to change it.
"Uh, okay then, bye... Master, let’s go quickly. When that capitalist returns, I’m sure I’ll be conscripted. I feel like I’ve already owed the capitalist a lot of money; back then, the cost of that knowledge surely cos with interest..."
-----------------
Outside South Spirit City.
[Task: Night Containnt (Completed).]
[You received Divine Inscription × 1, attribute points
10, skill points
10, experience value
3 million.]
[You leveled up, reaching Level 56.]
[Your world increased, current world count: 2.]
Baiyi fell into deep thought while looking at the ancient inscription in his hand.
All three Rule Zones had been breached, yet there was nothing like the Tear of Rules.
In a kingdom with five Mutated Zones, it would be alright if the drop rate was 25%, but he feared it was sheer luck that he managed to obtain one at that ti.
If that’s the case, he would be tied up in it for a long ti. With the existence of player forums, he knew many situations in Dongwu City.
With a war about to break out, he couldn’t abandon Dongwu City in search of a possible Tear of Rules.
Dongwu City was the foundation, after all.
Baiyi checked the information about the Divine Inscription.
[Na: Divine Inscription.
Attributes: ???
Effect: ???
Introduction: An item of the New God, it contains the power of destiny and is inscribed with writings that only gods can understand.]
The attributes and introduction were quite simple, and Baiyi pondered, the power of destiny... Lord of Gods indeed.
Though he didn’t yet know its use, it’s always wise to keep things related to destiny.
But why would sothing related to destiny appear on the panel?
Baiyi pondered for a long ti before shaking his head, deciding to suppress these perplexing but unanswerable questions until he achieved Divine Level and could understand everything.
For now, he needed to focus on growth, not on unearthing secrets.
Zero: [Connected to the Bone Dragon Network, Bone Dragon is on the way, received Luoning’s ssage: Boss, it seems a war is brewing, what should we do?]
Baiyi paused and smiled. Luoning, it’s been a while, and he did miss her a bit.
[Tell her I’ll be back soon.]
Zero: [ssage sent.]
"Roar~"
In the sky, Dragon Power filled the air, and a familiar dragon roar rang out.
Baiyi lifted himself onto the dragon’s back with his spiritual power.
The giant dragon flapped its wings at Mach 5 speed, covering two thousand kiloters in an instant.
South Spirit City remained unchanged; under the governance of the elves, it was difficult for things to change here, always clean, tidy, and... backward.
The developnt of cities requires an economy, and elves are inherently unsuitable for economic developnt.
Moreover, this race is generally arrogant, with elves ruling the city and all major officials being elves.
The four major border cities all followed Sabo in taking a sip of soup, and South Spirit City had the least share.
Nevertheless, South Spirit City is an elf city, so the lack of economic developnt isn’t a concern. The cohesion of the elves is stronger than that of the human race, and the pure elf army is invincible throughout the Federation, as no other city can boast of having a Silver Legion of three thousand elves like South Spirit City.
With this legion and Adis, a Level 79 big boss, South Spirit City is the strongest border city, even stronger than the current Dongwu City.
Unless the Modified Legion gathers all its troops.
Arriving at the City Lord’s Mansion.
It was the sa as when he left, with only Adis and Qin Xia under the Tree of Life. Upon seeing his return, neither of them showed any reaction.
Baiyi didn’t dismount the giant dragon but instead produced an ice card, which was sent to Adis under spiritual manipulation.
"City Lord Adis, have South Spirit City prepare. War is about to comnce, and the opponent will be the realm of the Ancient Gods. You will need more soldiers."
Baiyi added, "The elf population is too sparse."
Adis paused and nodded, "I understand."
Baiyi didn’t say anything more and nudged the Bone Dragon.
Imdiately, Dragon Power surged, and the speed of Mach 5 burst forth, leaving a long-lasting trail through the clouds at a speed of 1,700 ters per second.
Adis watched Baiyi’s departing figure, a flicker in his eyes, and turned to his disciple, "Go prepare; when the war breaks out, you’ll take the lead."
"Yes, Master." Qin Xia’s eyes were filled with excitent and war intent.
Elves are a matriarchal society, where female elves are the ones who go to battle, and the Fla Tribe is the most warlike. She had been looking forward to this day for a long ti.
The elves of the Fla Tribe may love peace, but they never shy away from war!
anwhile, on the Bone Dragon, Baiyi was quickly scanning the recent events.
There weren’t many changes; he had only been in Night Town for thirteen days, which wasn’t enough ti for much to happen.
However, the actions of Dongwu City’s legions still drew much attention, and from the response given by the official account of Dongwu City, there was so suppression across the Federal Network.
After all, the recovery of magic power wasn’t a secret. The Old Sword Saint’s deterrence still existed but was no longer absolute.
Without minding much, Baiyi instructed, [Tell the council I’ll be at the Capital City in seven hours, and a eting will be necessary then.]
Zero: [ssage sent.]
Baiyi fell silent again, sowhat sentintal. It had been two years since he left the Capital City; he hadn’t expected to return here again.
But this ti, he returned not as a timid, weak alchemist but as a City Lord capable of influencing the Federation.
Although he didn’t care much about past events, in his mories, he knew that so favors received still needed to be repaid.
He thought of sothing and checked a task on him.
[Task: Boss’s Ambition.
Task Trait: Position Task.
Task Description: Gain at least one promotion and greater authority within the specified ti.
Task Duration: 46 days 13 hours.
Fixed Rewards: boss specialty ×1, Legend Level ×5, skill points ×10, free attribute points ×10.
Additional Rewards: Additional rewards will be given based on the level of position and authority.
Current Additional Rewards: skill points ×20, special skill points ×3, random eight-star title ×1, experience value
8 million, random reward ×1.
Failure Penalty: No rewards.
Introduction: How can one be called a boss while alone? After all, not even gods are solitary beings.]
This task rarely caught Baiyi’s attention, but it wasn’t ignored entirely either.
When he beca the City Lord, he had seen this task, and it couldn’t be submitted in advance, which was disappointing to him.
But at that ti, the additional rewards were only skill points ×10, a random eight-star title ×1, and 3 million experience value.
As Dongwu City developed, the additional rewards kept increasing.
This made Baiyi understand the aning of additional rewards based on position and authority.
The city lord’s position hadn’t changed, but the authority could.
The larger Dongwu City’s population, the more people were managed, and the stronger Dongwu City beca, the greater the influence on the Federation.
So, upon realizing that the rewards would continue to increase, he no longer paid much attention to this task. Looking at it now, its rewards had beco incredibly high.
There are still over forty days left; who knows what changes might occur by then?
However, Baiyi had so ideas about those random rewards and random titles.
Don’t forget, he had a Daughter of Destiny by his side.
When it cos to luck, when and how to draw is an art by itself...
Baiyi sat in a chanical throne in a daze as the cities below the giant dragon appeared increasingly frequently.
The closer they got to the Federation, the denser the city network beca.
When Baiyi could see the massive 30-ter-high city walls,
A sudden sense of crisis hit.
Baiyi was taken aback; this was the core of the Federation, who would dare to attack him here? Surely that would be suicidal?
But in the next mont, as the endless undead aura exploded and the Bone Dragon beneath him began to fly erratically out of control, he sowhat understood.
"Boss, I’ve been controlled; the controlling power is strong, and I can’t resist."
Baiyi looked ahead sowhat helplessly, "Young lady, this way of greeting isn’t very friendly."
