Chapter 40: Generous Reward, Certificate of Champion Trial ?
?
After obtaining the new BUFF, Su Ming walked towards Aaron Town.?
?
He intended to submit the quest to the village chief.?
?
On the way, Su Ming received the first place prize for his contribution in the quest “Guarding Aaron Town”.?
?
“Ding!”?
?
“Congratulations on receiving rewards: 1000 gold coins, 5000 experience points, 10 free attribute points, [Certificate of Champion Trial].”?
?
There were four rewards in total.?
?
Except for gold coins, the last three items were good.?
?
Su Ming casually added the 14 free attribute points he got from this battle to his Spirit.?
?
Then he looked at the last item.?
?
[Certificate of Champion Trial]?
?
Quality: Special?
?
Description: Entry ticket of the Temple of War Champion Trial event which is held once a year. It will start when the number of contestants becomes 10,000. Only the player who wins first place is eligible for the prize.?
?
Current number of applicants: 8452/10000?
?
“The Temple of War… As far as I remember, it seems to be located in the eastern city of the Holy Light Kingdom, [Leot City].”?
?
Su Ming was very familiar with the champion trial.?
?
Because this event was open to the entire world of [Origin]!?
?
Only the first place in the competition was rewarded, and the quality of this reward was at least gold level and at the most mythical level.?
?
Anyone who got a better ranking at the champion trial would become very popular.?
?
Sometimes, even the major forces of other countries would offer you an olive branch.?
?
“As soon as I finish the final quest in Aaron Town, I’ll go to [Leot City].”?
?
Su Ming made a decision.?
?
After that, he took out the silver equipment dropped by the Wrath of Hills.?
?
It was a pair of long boots.?
?
[Phantom Boots – Silver grade]?
?
Part: Foot?
?
Attributes: Defense +15, Strength +10, Agility +30, Spirit +11?
?
Special effect: Movement speed +15%?
?
Additional Skill: Phantom Clone: Leave a 10% HP substitute in place, move 10 meters away, and obtain 6 seconds of invisibility. Cooldown Time: 30 seconds. Consumes 150 MP.?
?
Equipment requirements: level 10, general class?
?
Substitute + displacement + invisibility!?
?
A skill with three types of effects was also very useful.?
?
It could be used to escape or deceive the enemy’s vision, and then launch a surprise attack from the dark.?
?
Su Ming immediately put on the phantom boots and replaced the level 3 shoes.?
?
His attributes immediately increased a little.?
?
Apart from that, after his equipment, [Hills’ Robe of Glory], evolved to Gold rank, his attributes had greatly increased.?
?
[Hill’s Robe of Glory – Gold]?
?
Part: Body?
?
Attributes: Defense +45, HP +550, Physique +30, Agility +15, Spirit +25?
?
Special effect: Mental resistance +20%?
?
Additional Skill: [Berserk Magic: After activating the skill, 200 MP will be consumed per second. Spell damage caused by spell ability will be increased by 20%, lasting up to 15 seconds. Cooldown Time: 25 seconds (Cooldown is calculated when the skill ends).]?
?
Equipment requirements: Level 10, magic class?
?
After its grade increased, all of its aspects had been improved considerably.?
?
As he closed the equipment panel, Su Ming had arrived near the mayor’s house.?
?
As a result, he met an unexpected person.?
?
Priestess Elos.?
?
She smiled and said, “Hello, Mr. Cang Hai, thank you for saving Aaron Town again.”?
?
“What’s she doing here?”?
?
Su Ming walked over with some doubts. After greeting her, he asked, “Priestess Elos, are you here to see Mayor Buck?”?
?
“Yes, there are some things that I need to inform the old mayor.” Elos nodded.?
?
After thinking about it, Su Ming still asked her about the doubt in his heart: “How come I didn’t see Bishop Halman during the attack of [Wraith of Hills] this time?”?
?
“The day after we assisted Guard Post 3 in fending off the demon attack, the Great Demon Lord suddenly stormed the seal of the Abyss Portal. Lord Bishop had to go to the Dark Ridge to reinforce the seal.”?
?
Elos explained in a warm voice.?
?
“So that’s what happened.”?
?
Su Ming was surprised to find that things had changed again.?
?
In his previous life, Bishop Halman had stayed in the Church.?
?
The trajectory of the plot had changed!?
?
“Which part of the plot has changed?”?
?
As Su Ming thought carefully, suddenly he remembered something.?
?
From the start of the game until now, the first time something different had happened was when he assisted the sentry soldiers in repelling the demon army’s attack.?
?
It was also from that time that the trajectory of the game began to change.?
?
“It turns out that I’m the one who caused all the changes.”?
?
Su Ming felt a little helpless.?
?
Based on this speculation, his suspicion that Bishop Halman was behind this was lowered a bit.?
?
There were too few clues.?
?
Su Ming was only familiar with the process of the first and second part of the mayor’s quest. The player from his previous life had not completed the third part.?
?
He didn’t bother to think about it.?
?
After saying goodbye to Elos, Su Ming came to the mayor’s house and submitted the quest.?
?
“Adventurer, thank you for your contribution to Aaron Town! Here is your reward.”?
?
The mayor gratefully took out a skill book and a lot of gold coins.?
?
“Ding! Congratulations on completing the task [Demon Crisis (1)], and receiving rewards: 10,000 experience points, 4,000 gold coins, free attribute points +2, [Holy Light Blessing Skill Book – Silver grade]”?
?
This skill book was a group assistance type support skill, so Su Ming did not learn it.?
?
Assistance??
?
He would never assist someone in this lifetime.?
?
He put the skill book into his inventory to use it as a material for synthesizing a new skill book later.?
?
Immediately afterward, Su Ming took out the quest prop [Blood-stained ring].?
?
“Mayor, do you know the owner of this ring?”?
?
“Let me see…… West, isn’t this the name of Pharmacist Ron? Adventurer, you should go and find Ron. He might know the owner of this ring.”?
?
The mayor took the ring, studied it for a while, and found a name engraved on it.?
?
“Okay.”?
?
Su Ming took back the ring and left the mayor’s house.?
?
However, he did not look for Ron. Instead, he prepared to log off.?
?
It was not too late today.?
?
He opened the system and clicked the Exit button.?
?
“Ding, you are exiting [Origin].”?
?
His vision darkened, and in the next moment, he returned to the bedroom of his apartment.?
?
Su Ming could clearly feel the powerful power contained within his body. As expected, the power he obtained in [Origin] was really synchronized to reality.?
?
However, it was not fully synchronized. This power was only 50% of the power in the game.?
?
If he wanted to increase his strength, he had to wait for the [Mystery Dungeon] to appear. That dungeon had an item called the [Stone of Origin] that could increase synchronization by 5%.?
?
“Let’s get some rest now and then make some plans for the future development.”?
?
Su Ming made up his mind.?
?
Nowadays, all major news media were reporting about [Origin].?
?
I believe that numerous players will be entering the game tomorrow.?
?
It could be said that a new era is coming!
