Chapter 279 Trial of Destiny! Divine Metal!
The players suddenly realized what was happening.
Shame, regret, and then fervor.
"The God of Travel is right! We've made a complete fool of ourselves!"
"Damn it, I've been blinded by greed to let a bunch of idiots fight amongst themselves!"
"Stop talking nonsense! Clear the monster! The guardian spirit is watching us!"
"Experience! Lots of experience, guys!"
The players, who were previously at loggerheads, are now more united than ever before.
Driven by a collective sense of honor that "we can no longer let the team down" and by a wealth of experience.
They howled and pounced on the undead creatures that were still kneeling on the ground, trembling.
In an instant, the brilliance of skills once again illuminated the battlefield.
This time, however, there was no internal strife, only efficient and ruthless harvesting.
Chen You ignored the deafening shouts of battle erupting behind him.
In his view, these players have been thoroughly fooled and are unlikely to cause any more trouble in the short term.
His mission is complete.
With a flash, he appeared atop the towering western city wall of Qianguang City.
City Lord Meng De was anxiously directing the defense with his personal guards when he saw Chen You land. A complex expression appeared on his pale face.
There was a sense of relief at surviving the ordeal, a deep sense of awe, and an overwhelming sense of gratitude.
"Brother Chen... Brother Chen..."
Meng De rushed forward in one stride, about to say something, but saw Chen You simply raise his hand casually.
A simple act of stopping.
Mengde's next words were instantly stuck in his throat.
He stood there, stunned, staring at Chen You's calm and composed profile, and hesitated for a moment.
In the end, he bowed down and silently stepped aside, not daring to make any more noise to disturb them.
Chen You had absolutely no expectations for the lines Meng De was about to say.
He walked to a quiet corner of the city wall, gazing at the bustling monster-hunting scene below, but his mind was preoccupied with something else.
Previously at the Supreme Tower, Hill mentioned that reaching level 30 would activate a brand new system.
I'm already level 32, so I'll take this time to do some research.
With a thought, the system interface unfolded before my eyes.
Next to familiar icons such as [Backpack] and [Skills], a brand new icon is quietly burning.
It is shaped like an ancient eye, and deep within the pupil, it seems as if a river of stars is flowing.
[Destiny System]
Chen You touched it with his mind.
The interface switches, and a brand new window pops up.
In the center of the window are three dull, gray stone-like grooves, with brief text descriptions beside them.
[Destiny Stone Inlay Slot (Not Activated)]
Everything in the world has its predetermined destiny, yet also its variables. Those destined by fate can seize the immense power of heaven and earth and alter their own destiny.
By passing the Trials of Destiny, you can obtain Destiny Stones containing different powers. After embedding them, you can gain powerful Destiny Force.
Chen You quickly understood.
To put it simply, it just means three more terms?
To obtain the Destiny Stone, one needs to consume Destiny Emblems to activate the Destiny Trial.
Chen You casually opened his backpack.
In the corner, a dozen bronze emblems, emitting a faint glow, lay quietly.
The emblem is engraved with an eye pattern that matches the system icon.
[Destiny Emblem (Bronze): Upon use, unlocks one Bronze-level Destiny Trial.]
[How to obtain: There is a very low chance of it dropping from monsters after reaching level 30.]
"Extremely low probability?"
Chen You looked at the dozen or so monsters he had killed and only managed to get, and couldn't help but purse his lips.
This drop rate is just too low.
Moreover, the emblem's name includes the word "bronze," clearly indicating a higher grade.
Clicking on the Destiny Emblem reveals that, in addition to the [Use] option, there is also a [Craft] option.
Select [Craft].
[Consume 3 'Destiny Emblems (Bronze)' to synthesize 1 'Destiny Emblem (Silver)'?]
A three-in-one approach.
Bronze, silver, gold, purple gold, and... the highest level.
按照这个递进，一个最高级的徽记，岂不是需要3x3x3X3=81个青铜徽记？
Chen You looked at his pitiful dozen or so men and fell into deep thought.
Looking for a place to grind monsters?
No, that's the mindset of an average player.
A slight smile played on his lips as he expertly opened the glittering golden interface.
—Online store.
He slowly typed four words into the search bar.
"The Symbol of Destiny".
Swish!
The product list has been refreshed.
A bronze-lustered emblem is prominently displayed, with a clear price tag.
【Heavenly Mandate Emblem (Bronze)】
Price: 10 gold coins/each
[Usage Level: 30]
10 gold coins each.
This is indeed an astronomical price for the average player.
Most people wouldn't spend 10 gold coins to try their luck at drawing a divine stone that drops by chance.
But for Chen You...
Looking at his balance of over 200,000 gold coins, he felt like he was looking at a bunch of Happy Beans.
"Let's start with... 999."
He said it casually, as casually as buying vegetables at the market.
[Ding! Dear 'Pioneer of Immortality', the system has detected a large purchase quantity. Are you sure you want to purchase 999 'Heavenly Mandate Emblems (Bronze)'?]
A system notification sounded.
[Friendly reminder: This item has a chance to drop when defeating monsters level 30 and above. Obtaining it through your own efforts will enhance your gaming experience!]
Chen You raised an eyebrow.
This system is quite intelligent; it has even learned to advise people to consume rationally.
"Probability?" He chuckled lightly, his tone carrying a hint of nonchalant indifference.
"Stop talking nonsense, pack it up."
Okay, as you wish.
The system notification seemed to pause for half a second before quickly executing the command.
-9990 gold coins
A string of cold numbers was deducted from the balance.
The next second, 999 bronze badges were stacked together in Chen You's backpack.
[Consume 3 [Destiny Emblems (Bronze)] to synthesize 1 [Destiny Emblem (Silver)]?]
"Yes."
[Consume 3 [Destiny Emblems (Silver)] to synthesize 1 [Destiny Emblem (Gold)]?]
"Yes."
[Consume 3 [Destiny Emblems (Gold)] to synthesize 1 [Destiny Emblem (Purple Gold)]?]
"Yes."
[Consume 3 [Destiny Emblems (Purple Gold)] to synthesize 1 [Destiny Emblem (Divine Gold)]?]
"Yes."
Chen You initiated mass synthesis, and the number of emblems in his backpack decreased rapidly, while the quality of the emblems continued to rise.
A moment later.
The 999 bronze emblems were synthesized layer by layer, eventually becoming 12 top-tier emblems that flowed with seven-colored light and whose pupil patterns seemed to rotate slowly as if they were alive.
[Heavenly Mandate Emblem (Divine Gold): Upon use, it unlocks one Divine Gold-level Heavenly Mandate Trial.]
[Legend has it that there is a chance of creating a mythical-grade Destiny Stone during trials at the Divine Metal level.]
"Mythical level..."
Chen You looked at the emblem and nodded in satisfaction.
That's how you make the money you spend.
Without further hesitation, he took out a [Heavenly Mandate Emblem (Divine Gold)] from his backpack.
The moment the emblem appeared, it caused ripples in the surrounding space, and an ancient and desolate aura emanated from it.
He ignored the horrified looks from Meng De and the others behind him, and simply placed the emblem in his palm and gently squeezed it.
"Click."
A crisp cracking sound rang out.
The purple-gold emblem transformed into countless points of light, instantly enveloping him.
The world before my eyes began to distort and peel away.
The walls of Thousand Light City, the battlefield below, the distant sky... everything was fading rapidly.
The Trial of Destiny (Divine Metal) has begun...
