Chapter 654 Opportunity.


    [Mesmeryx Lineage Blessing (—) (Lineal Inheritance)]


    —


    A Lineal Inheritance, ording to the Madness Key, was an Inheritance that could only be epted by those with the proper "Lineal Heritage".


    This felt vague to Ss, and he didn''t know the specifics. But his Insight Path Talent wouldn''t lie to him. He knew that this was incredibly important for Nosphaleen and this would be what decided whether he could take her in as a contract or not.


    Like this, he wouldn''t have to worry about finding Corrupt Genes to rece the function of the cancer Gene he had been relying on until now.


    But his Insight Path Talent was also telling him that it likely wouldn''t be so easy.


    Lineal Inheritances had far stricter requirements than Inheritance Crystals, and if one put that into perspective, it would be easy to understand the kind of trouble this would bring.


    In order to gain ess to his Scorpion Warlord Inheritance Crystal, Ss had to grasp Sparking Will. And even that wasn''t enough to perfectly gain its eptance. Without his exceptionally high Ruin Mastery, he wouldn''t even be able to climb the stairs of his Inheritance Crystal.


    Lineal Inheritances had an easier first bar to clear… sort of.


    How rare was a Mesmeryx Bloodline? It was a creature with a Gold Grade Lineage. The number of people who could have it were all too rare.


    But technically speaking, so long as you had the Lineage, it was quite easy for you to gain initial eptance of the Lineal Inheritance.


    Unfortunately, it would be far more troublesome after the fact. And it would only scale with difficulty the rarer the Lineage in question.


    What Ss knew for certain was that he was going to have to help Nosphaleen prepare much more than she was now before he allowed her to make an attempt.


    ''The Lineal Inheritance will only trigger if she''s not yet Level 10, so it''s good that she isn''t. I''ll need to do more for her, though. The Frost Bane Armor she has needs to be Leveled up more, and I also need to try to find recements for her disk des. We''ll also need to increase the Mastery she has over her Skills…''


    Ss was willing to make a great investment this time because he knew that Nosphaleen would definitely not turn down this Inheritance. And the moment she became a true Mesmeryx, she wouldn''t be able to resist his Beast Totem.


    By then, a single nce from him would easily force her into a contract. So he simply wasn''t worried about betrayal.


    Plus… this Lineal Inheritance couldn''t be used by him anyway.


    Well, it could… if he was able to extract the Essence of Nosphaleen''s Lineage. But he wouldn''t do this.


    Why would he pigeonhole himself into this path when he would be able to ess it all anyway so long as Nosphaleen was one of his Beast Contracts?


    ''Hm?''


    Ss grabbed at the air and a tokennded in his hand. It was beautiful, more like a work of art or the emblem of a royal. It was so perfectly circr that it almost hurt to look at.


    ''Why do I feel like that…?''


    There was no denying that such a description was odd. Why would how circr something was make it difficult to look at?


    However, Ss was distracted by the etchings on its surface a momentter. Roaring dragons, flying phoenixes, mythical oceanic beasts rising from the ocean and subterranean legends piercing out from the ground…


    The circr token was so small, and yet it seemed to epass so many things at once.

    [Mancer Scape Token (Gateway Treasure)]


    —


    Once again, there was no other description. It felt like every one of these Treasures was so far above Ss'' paygrade that he simply didn''t have the right to know anything other than their names. But the moment Ss saw this one, his mind connected it to another memory…


    —


    [Tamer of Dimensions (Legendary)]


    [The Beasts of Legend exist across all known and unknown Existence, impossible to find to all but you. Form a Dimension of your own to store your beasts, and open gateways to explore new worlds to find more]


    —


    Maybe it was arrogant of Ss to believe that without him, Earth would certainly fall through the cracks. But… he had yet to see anything that could make him feel otherwise.


    This was one of the ten Legendary Paths that Ss had to choose from with his Profession. It had been an intriguing possibility, but the more Ss learned about the world, the happier he was that he hadn''t made this choice.


    If every time he opened up a portal he lost several months of time in a single sitting, then he wouldn''t even be able to make use of this talent. By the time he gained anything on the other side, Earth would have already failed its Summoning.


    Maybe it was arrogant of Ss to believe that without him, Earth would certainly fall through the cracks. But… he had yet to see anything that could make him feel otherwise.


    But now this Mancer Scape Token seemed to be giving him the same opportunity.


    ''I could use this world to find the perfect creatures I need to finish my Legendary ss perfectly… I might even be able to find Serpentes to target that could make an otherwise very difficult Quest almost superficially easy… but I need more information first. How long does the gatewayst? Where will it lead me? How dangerous would it be…?''


    Ss would either need a stronger Scouting Skill, or he would have to rely on the Madness Key for the answers.


    Without an option for the former, he chose thetter. Luckily, the answer only cost him 10 Bronze Genes.

    [Mancer Scape Token (Gateway Treasure)]


    [Open a Portal to the Mancer Scape, a virtual world that carries the Essence of Path of the Mancer beasts, creatures, and spirits.]


    [Uses Left: 1/1]


    —


    Ss wasn''t very satisfied with this answer alone, so he ended up asking more, and it unsurprisingly cost him even more.


    As he began to learn more about this Mancer Scape, his eyes shone brighter and brighter.


    This really was an opportunity.
