Chapter 310: True Dream World (Four-in-One) (May 9300 Monthly Ticket Bonus Chapter)

After answering Qin Chuan and Lin Yue's doubts, Mahiya did not linger, soon bidding farewell and leaving.

Watching her retreating back, Lin Yue whispered, "How credible do you think her words are?"

"Regarding that part of the Heavenly Stairway, there should be no problem." Qin Chuan spoke slowly, "After all, we can easily verify that content."

Lin Yue glanced at Qin Chuan sideways, a hint of smile in her eyes.

It seems they thought of the same thing.

That part of the Heavenly Stairway is fine.

This indicates the remaining part is problematic.

"This isn't the place to talk." Qin Chuan lowered his voice, "Let's first complete the dungeon requirements; we can discuss the rest later."

The gloomy, ominous gray-black aura that had seeped out from the contaminated core of the shattered Kasakaban has now vanished, dissipating into heaven and earth.

The option to exit the dungeon for the two of them lit up again.

Qin Chuan, who had not used time stop in battle, gave no chance for the terrifying entity hidden in the ominous to reveal itself.

But to be safe, Qin Chuan does not plan to use time stop in this run.

As of now, there's also no need for it.

With a Second Realm Mythic slain, it's believed no other Second Realm will attempt to descend at this critical juncture.

Although Diriklei fled, he can run but the monastery cannot escape.

Under the lock of the Gnomon Third Talent Effect, Qin Chuan has already seen him.

Spirit Descent not yet dispelled, Dragon Wings gave a fierce beat; Qin Chuan pulled Lin Yue upward into the sky, straight toward Diriklei's direction.

The strategy for the SSS-level dungeon turned out this way; its scale has already exceeded Qin Chuan and Lin Yue's expectations, but they are not completely without gain.

At least, regarding the Heavenly Stairway and the Six Major Races, they have gained more understanding. —In an ordinary, unremarkable lake in Mahisio Territory, Diriklei concealed his aura to the utmost, sitting cross-legged at the lake bottom.

His aura merged with the entire lake; even if a Mythic Stage expert flew over the surface, they could not discern any trace.

Moreover, any movement of wind or grass by the lakeside, he would instantly know.

This special concealment method is achievable only by combining a special item Diriklei obtained in his youth with his own power.

Before reaching Mythic Stage, he repeatedly turned danger into safety using this method.

He believes this time will be no exception.

His heart jolted, Diriklei slowly opened his tightly shut eyes underwater.

He faintly sensed something, his heart unable to hide shock.

"The Remnant Ember Demon God has fallen."

Just how strong are those two humans, that they could even defeat a Second Realm Remnant Ember Demon God?

This is absurd.

The material world can indeed grant a home-field advantage, but as a Half-Demon Clan Mythic Stage, Diriklei knows well that such advantage usually only brings a one-level leap in combat power.

Humans certainly lack a Mythic Stage, for if they had one, they would qualify to formally ascend the Heavenly Stairway.

Therefore, these two humans are merely at the Legendary Stage.

Can a home-field advantage allow a Legendary Stage to leap two levels and defeat a Mythic Stage Second Realm?

None of the previous races could achieve this during their SSS-level dungeon campaigns! "Humans..."

Diriklei's low voice echoed beneath the lake surface.

As the last race to arrive at the ten-thousand-year mark, could it, like the first Moon Spirit to ascend the Heavenly Stairway within ten thousand years, enjoy some privilege? In this moment, Diriklei thought of many things.

But shortly after, his expression suddenly changed.

Two figures suddenly appeared in the water, before his eyes.

Yet he felt no disturbance the whole time! "You..." sensing the suffocating terrifying aura of Qin Chuan and Lin Yue before him, Diriklei's face underwent a drastic change; moments later he lowered his hands, "I will return again."

"Hum—"

Accompanying Qin Chuan's sword strike, Diriklei collapsed heavily.

【Congratulations player for achieving dungeon strategy goal, completing the strategy for SSS-level dungeon: Heavenly Stairway First Level, current dungeon strategy rating: SSS】

Unlike previous dungeons, the SSS-level dungeon has no minimum strategy requirement, only a dungeon strategy goal.

Achieving the goal equals an SSS rating.

【Current strategy rewards: 【Gold】Diriklei's Nether River Spear, 【Gold】Demon God's Jade, 【Gold】Title: Calamity】

【Additional strategy rewards: today's attempt count +3, carry dungeon item +1 (multiple players can only carry one item)】

【Claim strategy rewards】

Carry dungeon item?

Qin Chuan's gaze involuntarily turned to the additional strategy rewards.

After obtaining an SSS rating in the SSS-level dungeon, the additional strategy rewards differ from before.

After a moment's thought, Qin Chuan understood.

In the dungeon, obtained items can be temporarily placed in the equipment slot, but cannot be taken out, except for dungeon rewards.

With this strategy reward, besides the dungeon reward equipment, Qin Chuan can also take one item from the dungeon.

This reward does not increase with the number of participating players; no matter how many players, only one extra item can be taken.

Instinctively, Qin Chuan glanced at his equipment slot.

There lay a golden object named Life Source Crystal.

He had previously been considering how to truly obtain this item.

The original plan was to hide it in a place only he and Lin Yue knew, to retrieve it upon truly ascending the Heavenly Stairway.

Now, there is a better way.

Qin Chuan then immediately claimed the other three rewards.

Derek Lai's Underworld River Spear: Derek Lai's innate weapon, the Underworld River Evil God, water-element usage, attribute control increased by 150%, attribute might increased by 100%.

God Demon's Jade: a key item for the Half Demon Clan after reaching Mythic Stage; although it is useless for other races, it is believed that the Half Demon Clan would be willing to exchange it at a reasonable price.

Title·Calamity: grants a 50% boost to all attributes.

Underworld River Spear, is a decent golden weapon.

Previously Qin Chuan, under the state of Spirit Descent·Water-Chanting Throne, had been using Darleysa's Tidal Halberd; now that he has this stronger superior weapon, he can swap it out.

Although God Demon's Jade is useless for Human Race, but if one can find a Half Demon to exchange for a golden equipment, that is also a good choice.

Perhaps, one could try entering the SSS-level dungeon next time? If the next raid target is not Half Demon.

As for the final golden title, it's not bad, but not as good as Godslayer.

Put away the rewards, Qin Chuan and Lin Yue joined hands and instantly disappeared on the spot.

Not long after the two left, a graceful figure appeared by the lakeside.

Purple moon halos layered behind her, making her look like a moon spirit.

Purple Moon Chief Priest·Mahasia gazed at the lake, speaking softly, "Lord Krai, they have left, the SSS-level dungeon is over."

"Good." A voice drifted from the void, "Mahasia, you and I are both Chief Priests, no need to address me as 'Lord'."

"No, if not for Lord Krai, I would not be who I am today." Mahasia spoke softly, a grateful look in her light purple eyes, "No matter when, I will follow Lord Krai's footsteps."

"You're still as stubborn." Krai gave a light sigh, "Do as you wish."

"Lord Krai, you say… will the Human Race believe?" Mahasia suddenly spoke.

"Why not?" Krai's voice carried a hint of a smile, "We are the first race to ascend the Heavenly Stairway, so we have privileges and corresponding duties."

No race on the Heavenly Stairway will doubt this.

Moreover, when the Human Race dungeon stage had just begun, I gave the Human Race a small gift, appropriately expressing goodwill.

Speaking of which, the one who received this small gift happened to be Luo." Krai spoke softly, "I believe the Human Race should already have recognized our race's goodwill."

Moreover, what you said is not wrong." Krai smiled, "We truly will strive to help the Human Race ascend the Heavenly Stairway."

So Mahasia, why do you have such worries?

I just feel… the Human Race seems somewhat special." Mahasia's voice paused slightly, "Their home-field advantage, why can they skip two levels?"

Could it be… the last race to enter the Heavenly Stairway has corresponding privileges?

That's impossible; the race that finally enters the Heavenly Stairway after the ten-thousand-year period has no such privilege and is the most dangerous." Krai spoke softly, but his tone was quite certain.

Regarding this question you raised, I have asked the Ancestor." Krai's voice paused slightly, "As for this, the Ancestor's answer is…

Human Race, perhaps an old friend." — When Qin Chuan and Lin Yue returned to reality, the sky had already grown dark.

They started raiding the dungeon in the morning, and by the time they finished it was already evening.

Across the world, countless superpowered beings who had been closely watching the progress of the SSS-level dungeon let out a sigh of relief at the same time.

Feng Yin's call came through immediately.

"Have you really reached the Heavenly Stairway?" On the other end of the line, Feng Yin was asking, but her tone was quite certain, "Otherwise, how could it have taken so long?"

Under normal circumstances, clearing the dungeon should have been over long ago given Qin Chuan's ability.

"It is indeed the First Level of the Heavenly Stairway." Qin Chuan smiled, "When we first entered, Lin Yue and I did some extra scouting..."

At that moment, he openly told Feng Yin about the situation of the Heavenly Stairway and their clearance process.

After Qin Chuan finished speaking, the other end of the line fell into a long silence.

After a while, Feng Yin slowly spoke up.

"The words of the Chief Priest of the Purple Moon may be problematic."

"In the dungeon information you shared earlier, you mentioned the Phantom Tribe."

"If the Moon Spirits were the first race to set foot on the Heavenly Stairway, then when did the Phantom Tribe appear?"

"On this point, they have concealed something."

"Based on this, there is a very important question."

"If the Moon Spirits were not the first race to set foot on the Heavenly Stairway, then do they truly have the privilege of not being wiped out even after defeat?"

"Without this privilege, their reason for aiding the Human Race would completely fall apart."

"Yes."

Qin Chuan smiled, once again recognizing Feng Yin's keen judgment in his heart.

He and Lin Yue were able to notice the clues because they had cleared the S-level dungeon, the Migelu Sleeping Plains, where, in that somewhat special dungeon, they had made remote contact with the Phantom Tribe.

Many details, he did not disclose in the clearance information because he was unsure.

For example, the door that Salma, leading all the Phantom Tribe, finally walked through.

Despite having only a little information, Feng Yin was actually able to deduce this.

Be that as it may, he is indeed the player whose insight talent best fits the present age.

Now, looking back at the past in the Migelu Sleeping Plains, the questions that had once puzzled Qin Chuan seem to have all found explanations.

What constitutes a victor, and what constitutes a loser.

The measure of victory and defeat is the Race War that occurs once every ten thousand years.

The Phantom Tribe was defeated, ultimately heading toward annihilation; Salma, as the last of the Phantom Tribe, created a miraculous Dream World through self-deception, yet still could not change the final outcome.

At the moment she awoke from her dream, no trace of the Phantom Tribe remained in the world.

Thus, she is the "Lost People."

Salma's existence proves one thing.

The Race War had already taken place ten thousand years ago.

What is about to happen is not the first time.

And Salma, who had participated in the previous Race War, was able to meet and fall in love with Beklan Deng, a Moon Spirit, in the same era.

So, the Moon Spirit also participated in the previous Race War.

In Bei Keleng Deng's notes, there is such a sentence.

【Ancestor said, we did not win, but we are not considered losers.】

Chewing on those words repeatedly, Qin Chuan felt increasingly uneasy.

The Moon Spirit was not the first to ascend in this ten‑thousand‑year.

They were the remnants of the previous ten‑thousand‑year.

Although we don't know by what means they escaped the punishment of defeat, one thing is certain.

In this ten‑thousand‑year, there is also an unknown race that suffered defeat.

The Moon Spirit took their place, considering itself the first race to ascend the Heavenly Stairway, and told every later race that it had the privilege of not perishing despite defeat and the duty to wholeheartedly help every race ascend the Heavenly Stairway.

"Feng Yin, you say… do other races know this?" Qin Chuan said in a low voice, "Will they believe the Moon Spirit's words?"

After a moment of thought, Feng Yin spoke slowly, giving an answer that surprised Qin Chuan.

"They will believe."

"Why?" Qin Chuan frowned slightly.

This is clearly a clumsy lie that anyone who understands and believes the past situation can immediately see through.

"I hadn't noticed before, but I just took a look." Feng Yin's voice paused slightly, "All information about the Phantom comes from an S‑rank dungeon called the Migru Sleeping Plain, right?"

"Yes." Qin Chuan nodded.

"But on the map of the First Level of the Heavenly Stairway that we obtained…

"There is no Migru Sleeping Plain."

Qin Chuan's pupils contracted sharply.

An area that does not exist on the Heavenly Stairway has become a dungeon?! "If one does not know of the Phantom's existence, everything the Moon Spirit says is perfectly reasonable." Feng Yin's voice carried a hint of gravity, "That is the truly frightening part."

"You suspect the Migru Sleeping Plain is a special dungeon known only to us humans?" Qin Chuan felt his voice sluggish, "Other races have never experienced this dungeon, and the Heavenly Stairway has no such place."

"So, they don't know of the Phantom's existence and therefore fully believe the Moon Spirit's words?"

"At least judging by other races' attitudes toward the Moon Spirit, that's the case." Feng Yin spoke faintly, "But whether they truly believe it, nobody knows."

"Regardless of whether the Moon Spirit Clan's words are true or false, one thing cannot be changed."

"The Moon Spirit Clan is also a competitor."

"If the Moon Spirit possesses privilege, other races will unconsciously overlook it during the Race War; if it lacks privilege, other races will treat the earliest‑ascended Moon Spirit as their biggest rival."

"I think this is why the Moon Spirit Clan continually emphasizes its privilege."

"Feign weakness?" Qin Chuan showed a thoughtful expression, "Then why do they help other races enter the Heavenly Stairway?"

The reason other races can believe the Moon Spirit's words is that the Moon Spirit truly does this. Not only humans, but all races receive the Moon Spirit Clan's aid before ascending the Heavenly Stairway.

"This is also something I cannot fathom." Feng Yin sighed helplessly, "The information we have is still too scarce."

After much discussion, the two could not deduce a reason.

Various signs indicate that the Moon Spirit Clan certainly harbors deep schemes.

But the Moon Spirit Clan's actual actions are completely contrary to that.

They are truly doing their best to play the role of a kindly old man and an enthusiastic member of the public.

It seems as if they survived the previous Race War just to do good deeds.

In the end, the two only arrived at one conclusion.

Besides humans themselves, do not trust any race of the Heavenly Stairway.

"The information about the Race War is too important." Feng Yin said in a deep voice, "If defeat leads to extermination, the seriousness has already surpassed our most pessimistic expectations."

"We need some time to discuss corresponding countermeasures."

Having said that, Feng Yin hung up the phone.

One can imagine that he will be busy from now on.

Qin Chuan slowly put down his phone, his face showing a hint of regret.

Everything that happened today inside the Heavenly Stairway also requires time for him to digest.

Lin Yue wrapped her arms around his arm and lightly rested her head on Qin Chuan's shoulder.

She stared at Qin Chuan and spoke softly.

"We will win."——Dream World

The moment Qin Chuan and Lin Yue's consciousness descended, they were surrounded by concerned guild members.

"Guild leader, what is an SSS‑rank dungeon like?"

"Is it hard to clear? Even the guild leader took that long."

"…"

Hearing everyone's questions one after another, Qin Chuan felt both amused and exasperated.

"I'll post the detailed account in the strategy information tomorrow; you just need to look at it."

The Race War is of great importance; whether to announce it now or wait for the Special Affairs Group to discuss with high‑level officials of other countries to reach a conclusion.

The guild members felt a little regret, but soon shifted the topic to something else.

"Guild leader, the SSS‑rank secret realm has refreshed!"

"Let me check." Qin Chuan, not surprised, immediately opened the secret realm information.

After a moment, his gaze locked onto the brightest dot on the secret realm map.

There is only one SSS‑rank secret realm in the entire Dream World map.

【Secret Realm Name: Miracle Realm】

【Secret Realm Rank: SSS】

【Secret Realm Difficulty: ★★★★★】

【Secret Realm Subjugation Target: Creator God·Raideks】

【Player Level Limit: Legendary Tier】

【Player Count Limit: 5】

【Entering Secret Realm Cost: Secret Realm Key x200, Secret Realm Stone x4000】

【Secret Realm Guaranteed Drops: Random Item, Random Super Rare Spirit Beast, Self-selected Mythic Tier Resource, Self-selected Legendary Tier Resource, Self-selected Epic Tier Resource……】

"Miracle Realm..." Qin Chuan's expression turned solemn.

The subjugation target had no level marked, but the title Creator God was already enough to be frightening.

Without a doubt, this is a Mythic Tier spirit beast.

"Let's go scout the path first." He took Lin Yue's hand and spoke softly.

In the next instant, the two disappeared from the spot.

"Alright, alright." Looking at the people still standing in place, Iron Hammer waved his big hand, "Why are you still standing there? Do what you need to do."

The crowd instantly found their backbone, beginning the day's exclusive subjugation and Secret Realm subjugation. —In a flash, Qin Chuan and Lin Yue, leading the ten little ones, stepped into a forest.

In the next instant, both exclaimed in surprise.

"How come I feel this place's environment is a bit familiar?" Qin Chuan said uncertainly.

"Do you have this feeling too?" Lin Yue likewise became surprised.

"I remember an A-rank Secret Realm we subjugated before looked like this." Qin Chuan pondered for a moment, pointing in a direction, "In my impression, there's a peculiarly shaped crooked-neck tree over there; when we passed by then, you specially pulled me to look at it."

After a moment, the two, not having walked far, stopped before that crooked-neck tree in their memory.

"It really exists!" Lin Yue widened her eyes, couldn't help stepping forward to touch it.

"Exactly the same!"

Qin Chuan thought for a moment, flipped onto Xiaohei's back, "Let's go up and have a look!"

Lin Yue sat behind Xiaobai, and the two rose into the air simultaneously.

As the black and white twin dragons kept flying, the two's expressions grew increasingly astonished.

Although the scenery was exactly the same as that of the previous A-rank Secret Realm, the expanse of the space they were now in was clearly beyond what an A-rank Secret Realm could match.

When the two flew over the area range of the former A-rank Secret Realm and explored more expansive regions, they were astonished to discover that the familiar scenery was not just one place.

With each distance they crossed, the two could see a familiar region; these regions had once belonged to different low-level Secret Realms, but now they all appeared together.

It seemed… the place called Miracle Realm was the source of the Secret Realms.

Those more numerous regions, unfamiliar to the two, might also be Secret Realms.

They were simply Secret Realms the two had never ventured into.

And this correspondence seemed familiar.

Qin Chuan and Lin Yue exchanged a glance and exclaimed in unison.

"Heavenly Stairway?!"

The correspondence between Miracle Realm and the Secret Realms is remarkably similar to that between the Heavenly Stairway and dungeons!

"Did you notice?" Qin Chuan pondered for a moment, "Although this is a world formed from countless Secret Realms combined, the number of spirit beasts here is not as many as we imagined."

"In previous Secret Realms, the number of spirit beasts was great enough to form beast tides."

"Moreover, Secret Realm spirit beasts sense and actively attack players who enter the Secret Realm."

"But here, the spirit beast numbers are much lower, and they don't attack us on sight—in fact…" Qin Chuan's voice trailed off slightly, "After sensing the aura of a Legendary Tier spirit beast, they even display fear and terror."

"Are you saying this is like the Dream World?" Lin Yue glanced at Qin Chuan.

Qin Chuan didn't answer, gently patted Xiaohei's head.

Xiaohei let out a dragon roar and suddenly lunged at a passing bird-type spirit beast with a claw.

Under its terrifying power, that bird-type spirit beast was instantly split in two, scattering blood rain as it fell to the ground.

If this were a Secret Realm, that bird-type spirit beast should have turned into light points and dissipated, dropping some experience gems or the like.

But now, it is just like the spirit beasts that die in the Dream World—still flesh and blood.

"Didn't we speculate about this before?" Qin Chuan's eyes held a hint of strangeness, "The guardian spirit beasts of the 9999 game zones are actually projections; they respawn immediately after being killed, so they cannot be slain."

"Perhaps their true forms are right here."

"The Dream World is the world where spirit beasts from the Juvenile Tier to the Elite Tier live."

"Miracle Realm is the world where spirit beasts from the Hall Tier to the Legendary Tier live."

"World…" Lin Yue seemed to think of something, quickly checked her panel, and in the next instant showed a delighted expression, "The Blessing of Fate can be used!"

The restriction preventing player talents from being used in the Secret Realm has been lifted!

"It's not just player talents that can be used." Qin Chuan shook his head with a wry smile, gazed at his personal panel, and his eyes locked on one line.

【Map】 【View】

This function appeared with the Blue Star 2.2 version update.

Along with it came the division and leaderboard of the 9999 game zones.

Through this function, players can see the map range of the entire Dream World.

And at this moment, Qin Chuan is in Miracle Realm.

If one views the map here…

Thinking of this, he hesitated not and clicked to view.

A vast, boundless world appeared before his eyes; Miracle Realm is a gigantic spherical world.

This world has land and ocean, each occupying half of the area.

Qin Chuan's gaze involuntarily turned toward a certain spot in the ocean.

There, there was a blank area occupying only one percent of the entire map's size, as if a piece had been forcibly dug out from the map of the Miracle Realm.

And the outline of that blank area perfectly matches the continental outline of the Dream World.

「We really are in the novice village, huh. 」 Qin Chuan gave a helpless smile.

At the edge of the Dream World, the world beyond the air wall turned out to be like this.

「I might know where Creator God Raideiks is. 」 Lin Yue suddenly spoke.

「I know too. 」 Qin Chuan nodded.

The two exchanged a smile and simultaneously looked at a certain spot on the map.

There, a place called the Creator God Temple was extremely obvious.

The Creator God Temple is an extraordinarily grand structure.

With dimensions of nearly ten thousand meters in length, width, and height, it looks like a towering peak on the earth, and its exquisite details are difficult to replicate even with modern human technology.

When Qin Chuan and Lin Yue landed on its extraordinarily grand entrance steps, a Spirit Beast with four legs, whose body seemed to combine the finest traits of all Spirit Beasts, walked out step by step, its aura bursting far beyond the legendary tier, crushing toward the ten little ones.

「I admire your courage, but here, your fate has only one outcome. 」

「Those who offend the god, die! 」

The majestic voice echoed long in the void.

Qin Chuan curiously looked at the manifested Creator God, then suddenly spoke.

「If I kill you, will you really die? 」

「Absurd! 」 Raideiks let out an angry roar, 「I am eternal…」

【00:06:25】

Time came to an abrupt halt at this moment; Raideiks' mouth, still open, hadn't had time to close, and his aura solidified silently.

「Then I can rest easy. 」 Qin Chuan spoke softly, then immediately pointed at Raideiks.

「Go! 」

Fortunately, Time Stop can still be used freely here.

【00:06:17】

In the previous instant, Raideiks was still incredibly formidable; in the next instant, his form shattered, his wide eyes filled with shock and bewilderment.

Qin Chuan smiled and waved at it.

「So, I will come again on the next Dream Day. 」——A male and female figure silently appeared somewhere in the Dream World.

Lin Yue looked at Qin Chuan beside her and couldn't help but giggle, 「You think you're coming to restock on the next Dream Day? 」

「I didn't say anything wrong either. 」 Qin Chuan spread his hands, 「There's only one Miracle Realm, and Raideiks is its sole subjugation target; today we killed it, and tomorrow it will refresh again. 」

Lin Yue stopped laughing and suddenly said, 「What do you think, when will the Miracle Realm and the Dream World merge? 」

The two have such a close relationship on the map that their future merger is almost inevitable.

「The next update. 」 Qin Chuan said without hesitation, 「Once the Miracle Realm and the Dream World merge, perhaps there will no longer be secret realms appearing. 」

「Perhaps, the merged two worlds will be the true Dream World. 」

「The current Dream World is merely a streamlined version. 」

Lin Yue nodded, her gaze drifting to the little creature fluttering beside them, curiously looking this way and that, a hint of smile in her eyes, 「Are you going to contract it, or am I? 」

「I'll contract it. 」 Qin Chuan smiled, 「I've always wanted a metal-type Spirit Beast. 」

「The remaining light-type will be contracted by you. 」

「All right. 」 Lin Yue had no objection.

Qin Chuan raised both hands and cradled the little creature flying in the air.

It had a pair of eyes glowing with red light, a round little body trailing a bent tail behind, and a metal helmet covered in spikes on its head, making it look quite proper.

Unfortunately, it possesses no lethal capability whatsoever, neither in appearance nor in strength.

【Spirit Beast Species: Steel Helmet Ball】

【Spirit Beast Attribute: metal-type】

【Spirit Beast Level: Juvenile Stage Lv1】

【Spirit Beast Status: Uncontracted】

【Spirit Beast Introduction: metal-type Spirit Beast Steel Helmet Ball, with a flamboyant and combative nature, innately possessing the exclusive trait 【Ancient God】, an ultra-rare species.】

This is a random ultra-rare Spirit Beast rewarded after conquering an SSS-rank secret realm.

After 【Dragon Descendants】, 【Holy Spirit】, and 【Fairy】, a new exclusive trait appears!

【Ancient God: possesses ancient power, has the ancient attribute: Absolute Damage】

【Absolute Damage: ignores defense, damage reduction, and final damage mitigation, directly subtracting from HP】

「Little one, will you follow me from now on? 」 Qin Chuan patted the Steel Helmet Ball's head, smiling as he spoke.

「Goo! 」

The Steel Helmet Ball's eyes flashed red, revealing its delight.

The contract was completed in an instant; feeling the rapidly growing bond between them, Qin Chuan looked at the Steel Helmet Ball's particularly special eyes, pondered for a moment, then quickly made a decision.

「From now on, you shall be called Red Pupil! 」
