Beating Instances through Words Left by the Dead

Chapter 217: Chapter 160: Revelation

Even though Wu Chang was excited, as if seizing the Earthly Divine Kingdom was as easy as picking something out of a bag, Erin was not as optimistic as he was.

Erin didn’t want to dampen Wu Chang’s spirits, but she felt obligated to bring him back to reality. She sighed and said:

”Your idea is great, but unfortunately, I can only see the mystical ceremonies arranged here, and I don’t know how to alter them.”

As her grasp of emotions grew, she found that being able to sense others’ feelings not only failed to facilitate communication but made it more difficult.

To not disappoint Wu Chang too much, she added, ”If it’s just destroying the mystical ceremonies here, I can easily do that.”

Wu Chang looked at the hesitant Erin, a smile appearing on his face. He could sense Erin’s changes.

When you ponder if what you say will affect the other person before speaking, it means you care about them.

She cares about me.

He had thought it out. If it’s a boy, he would be named Wu Wei, and if it’s a girl, Wu Shuang.

Just when Wu Chang was already fast-forwarding to naming the child, Erin waved her hand in front of him.

”Wu Chang, are you okay?”

Wu Chang shook his head to clear it, coming back to his senses, ”Sorry, I was a bit distracted. Where were we? Oh right, it’s impossible to alter the Earthly Divine Kingdom, right?”

Erin said, ”Unless you can control the other party’s master of mysticism or find a master of mysticism who can help you.”

Wu Chang shrugged and said, ”This matter can only be known to you and me, absolutely no room for a third person.”

The reason is simple, he wanted to keep it to himself.

Something like the Earthly Divine Kingdom might be his biggest trump card in the future, and he wouldn’t allow others to know about it or meddle in it.

”You don’t understand mysticism, and I don’t understand mysticism, yet we are supposed to change a great mystical ceremony. Doesn’t that sound unreasonable?”

Seeing Erin nod, Wu Chang laughed and said, ”What the god does is a miracle, and miracles are inherently unachievable and unreasonable. If it’s unreasonable, then it’s right! When the Earthly Divine Kingdom is completed, everything will become reasonable.”

”Let’s continue looking for the next node. We must thoroughly understand their arrangement, it can be considered as a rehearsal for the future transfer.”

Erin looked at Wu Chang’s hand holding hers. When she was feeling down earlier, Wu Chang had taken the opportunity to grab it, and hadn’t let go since.

”I’m fine now, you can let go.”

Wu Chang shook his head in refusal, saying, ”Didn’t you see it during the day when you were shopping? In my plane, when a man and woman come out together, they’re supposed to hold hands like this. It’s all local customs, you need to learn to blend in.”

Erin frowned slightly. Although she hadn’t learned that part, her intuition told her that Wu Chang was talking nonsense. However, when he held her hand earlier, she could indeed feel a power from his palm, a power that reassured her.

Since she didn’t mind, she didn’t expose Wu Chang’s lie.

Erin searched for traces of the mystical ceremonies, determining the direction of the next node. The two of them walked hand in hand out of Wenchang Hall, like a couple about to take a test, coming to make a wish.

”Erin, actually, there are many different local customs in our plane, I think you should try them all. For example, in a western country, they are popular with face touching as a greeting in the morning.”

”There is a country called France, where they even have kiss greetings, which means kissing the other’s cheek. They also have a tradition of a French wet kiss, which I also suggest you try.”

”Hey, I’m talking about culture, what are you doing with the Light of Steadfastness, wait, don’t smash it!”

The two spent one night, almost circling around Wanghai City, and found twelve nodes of the Earthly Divine Kingdom.

Wu Chang marked each of the twelve nodes with reality anchors, receiving an attribute reward for every two nodes completed.

He initially thought he had found a good opportunity to farm attributes, but after the reality anchors exceeded nine, he no longer received display rewards. Even after completing the twelfth anchor, no new attribute reward appeared.

It seems that five attribute rewards are the reward limit for the first reincarnation task.

All five attribute rewards were in the form of deducting Life and increasing other Body Attributes, in total reducing Life by 8 points, increasing Power by 7 points, Agility by 5 points, Endurance by 3 points, and Energy by 10 points.

No wonder there is a vast difference in combat power between players with and without reincarnated professions, especially those with hidden professions, even the worst hidden profession does not fall short of the strongest ordinary reincarnation.

Not to mention the strength brought by the profession, the first reincarnation task alone brought 17 Attribute Points, if a series of tasks are completed, who knows how many more attributes would be gained.

No wonder when facing Sword Star, he felt such a huge attribute gap, the real gap was due to reincarnation.

The twelve ritual nodes were not all the nodes of the Earthly Divine Kingdom. According to Erin, for unknown reasons, whether intentionally or accidentally, the players setting up the ritual did not activate the core part of the Earthly Divine Kingdom’s ceremony.

Without the operation of the ritual nodes, it’s impossible to detect the location of the nodes.

It seems to be a good way to hide the nodes, but it should be known that modifying or destroying an unactivated mystical ceremony is much simpler than modifying or destroying an activated mystical ceremony.

This situation was exactly what Wu Chang anticipated the most.

The framework of the Earthly Divine Kingdom had already been established, equivalent to the house having been built, the title deed issued, only waiting for the homeowner’s name to be written and stamped.
