Chapter 167

"Someone is approaching. You need to leave the dream as soon as possible."

Just after eating the fruit of the Tree of Life, he saw Inollucia's expression suddenly change in front of him, and said this to her.

Ye Bai's face changed when she heard this, and the next moment, she also felt the uneasiness that came from the perception of danger.

He quickly asked Aino Lucia in front of him: "Do you know who it is?"

"I sense the presence of the dead, and a faint wisp of light," Inollucia mused. At the same time, the Tree of Life on her body and behind her glowed green. "Time is urgent. Don't worry, I will use the power of the Emerald Dream to move you to a safe place."

Undead? Light Force?

Ye Bai's expression froze, and he immediately realized that it was because he had used the Code of Death on the second floor that he attracted someone's attention?

Speaking of which, this is the first time Ye Bai has used the Code of Death in the Divine Realm since he obtained it.

It's not surprising that the undead are chasing the Codex of Death, but the other thin force of light... Only the two major duchies of the human race have the bloodline to awaken the power of light, but the way the power of light is mixed with the undead is a bit strange.

After finally meeting a divine NPC who knew or had personally participated in the history of the divine world, Ye Bai originally wanted to ask for more information, but she didn't expect to encounter such an unexpected situation. Seeing the space in front of her begin to blur, she could only hurriedly say:

"Thank you, and I have another half key..."

"Of course, that's something that must never be forgotten."

Ino Lucia smiled at Ye Bai, but Ye Bai did not take any of the items she brought.

Immediately afterwards, Ye Bai saw Inolucia slowly move towards the Tree of Life at the back, close her eyes, and become the same person she looked when she first arrived at this floor.

The dream was fading away, and the light quickly engulfed her figure until it was completely swallowed up.

"I will always wait in my dreams, waiting for the Eternal King to return..."

The Elf Queen sighed softly, as if she was talking to Ye Bai, or as if she was talking to herself.

Finally, the dream completely shattered, and in the light, a large number of bizarre images of Inolosia flashed before Ye Bai.

There was the Queen in a White Dress, casting a spell to construct the Emerald Dream; there was the Queen in battle armor, shooting the Branch of Life at the Infernal Devil; and there was the most distant, as if from the very beginning, when a vague hand opened a bud on the Tree of Life, and the flower blossomed, revealing a tiny Inollucia sleeping soundly on her side...

And finally, these images filled with the colors of memories flashed and solidified, turning into a hidden and dark space, where a small tree stood quietly without any light, looking no different from any ordinary tree.

Beneath the small tree, the blonde elf was sleeping in the same position as in the dream. The difference was that her armor was tattered, and her white limbs were covered with infernal scorch marks that even life force could not erase.

The three layers of emerald forest are all dreams, only this scene is real.

…

[You discovered the historical event 'Purgatory Invasion and Emerald Dream', you gained 500 historical experience points, and you gained 5,000,000 experience points.]

[Your historical knowledge has reached expert level, and your historian level has been upgraded to 'Historian V'.]

[You have eaten more than three (or more) fruits of the Tree of Life, and you have obtained the title of 'Nature's Favor'. ]

Three consecutive system prompts brought Ye Bai back to her senses. She suddenly woke up, sat up from the ground, and found that she was no longer in the area she was before.

Ottophis was still beside him. In front of Ye Bai were mountains and forests, but the forest did not show much green. The leaves were bare or all dark green needles, still maintaining the dark and cold style of the divine world.

However, the area around here was very quiet, with no dangerous creatures and no unknown enemies. It seemed that Inollucia had, as she said, used some method to move her from the wilderness to this safe place, without encountering those undead and light bloodlines.

"Great, you succeeded!"

At the same time, the voice of the paper man sounded beside him, and this time Ye Bai heard obvious excitement in his voice.

Afterwards, Ye Bai felt something strange in her hand. She looked down and saw that she was holding a branch in her hand.

No wonder the Elf Queen in the Emerald Dream didn't give her the key. It turns out she gave it to her in reality...

Looking at this branch, Ye Bai's heart moved, and then she picked up another branch of life that had been a pendant around her waist for a long time.

As soon as the two branches came close to each other, they naturally stuck together and became a larger complete branch.

Ye Bai used his insight into it——

【Key to the God King's Treasure】

Level: Mythic

Attribute: Life Branch (Quest Item)

Special Effect - Life Tribute: The holder can obtain an additional 100% of the current health limit, and this additional health is added with 50% additional recovery speed.

Status: Traction in progress (Countdown: 719 hours, 59 minutes, 57 seconds)

Description: It is filled with the deepest expectations and blessings.

The complete aggregation of the two branches of the life tree further strengthens this task item, which also has the effect of a pendant. The previous special effect [Gift of Life] has become [Praise of Life], and the attributes are directly doubled on the original basis.

The deepest expectations and blessings... Ye Bai's gaze lingered on the description for a moment, and the image of the Elf Queen in reality emerged in his mind. He paused before slowly moving his gaze to the place where the two branches merged.

They seem to have merged into one and will not separate or fall apart, but there is still a gap at the merged position, and green light shines through the gap.

"Wuming, what does the traction on the key mean?"

Just as this extra state said, Ye Bai vaguely felt that in a distant place in the divine realm that she could not describe, something was being pulled.

"It's leading to the hidden treasure." The paper man replied immediately, "We still need to wait for a while until it finally arrives."

Arrival... Ye Bai chewed on this word. It seemed that the treasure of the God King was not somewhere in the continent of God. He had to wait until the countdown on the key was completed before he could go there.

The next moment, the system prompt about the task sounded again.

You have completed the mission [Treasure of the God-King - The Second Key], and the mission has been updated to [Treasure of the God-King - The Final Place].

[The God King's Treasure - The Final Place]

Mission Description: The keys have been collected. Follow the instructions and go to the final place where the treasure is found.

Mission Reward: Unknown

Seeing this, Ye Bai subconsciously moved his shoulders and neck and exhaled.

This mysterious main quest is finally coming to the final stage.

There is exactly one month left, which allows her to arrange her territory and reality, improve her strength, and then complete the final task.

Thinking of improving his strength, Ye Bai opened a personal panel. In terms of personal strength and experience, it can be said that he gained a lot this time.

Her personal level is 67. The experience points gained from the Fruit of the Tree of Life and the Historian are enough to upgrade to level 73. After a month, with the continuous experience sharing from the title of [Sea God Breeder], it is completely enough to upgrade to level 80. The only thing she has to consider is whether she can change her job after level 80 and where to go to change jobs.

At the same time, the attribute bonus Ye Bai obtained this time was the biggest one. It can be said that it completely exceeded the growth that could be obtained by upgrading to level 80. Her normal health and psychic energy should be around 8,000 and 3,000 at the current level, but because she ate four fruits of the tree of life in a row.

Even though the last attribute he obtained was weakened, Ye Bai's health value has now reached a terrifying 22,000, his psychic energy value has reached more than 10,000, and his various attributes are more than seven or eight times that of the same level, and his resistance has reached ten times as much.

The secondary profession [Historian] had reached the pinnacle of this profession, and lived up to Teacher Anita's expectations. However, after opening the secondary profession page, Ye Bai's eyes suddenly fixed:

Historian V

Job Description: You have accumulated some knowledge about the subject of history. Now, combine your knowledge and wisdom to discover more truths buried in history!

Professional proficiency: 100/100

Professional Skills - Archaeology: Ability to gain experience by excavating historical information; ability to discover hidden mission clues from historical information.

Professional Skill - Scholar Temperament: By understanding the history of different factions/races, you can gain a bonus to the favorability of the corresponding faction/race. (Current favorability: Ancient Dragon 5, Undead 3, Deep Sea 10, Purgatory 1, High Elves 60)

Professional Skills - Distinguishing the True from the False: Having unearthed too many historical truths, you can now use your intuition to distinguish the authenticity of the historical information you see.

Occupational Skills - ??? (Not Learned): ???

A historian who is promoted to level five will naturally gain new secondary skills, just like the other levels of promotion. Ye Bai has the impression that the ability of a level five historian should be called a historical tour, which is used to obtain clues about antiques in known history. These clues can often lead to a lot of good things.

But he hadn't expected it to be in an unknown state now. Could a holographic game still have bugs? There was still one skill he hadn't learned, and the secondary job didn't require skill points to light up... Wait, Ye Bai, who was internally complaining about this, suddenly thought of something and opened his personal career page.

Sure enough, in the Forbidden Apostle's professional skills, there is an additional unknown skill that can be lit up.

Now that she has upgraded to level 67, Ye Bai still has two unused third-level professional skill points. Then she spent a skill point to light up that unknown skill.

The next moment, the unknown skill, like other time magic, revealed its name.

[Historical Tour] Cooldown time is 24 hours; consumes 1000 spiritual energy points.

Just like the name of the historian's professional skill, this is... a fusion of her secondary job and time magic?

This is another ability with unknown effects, and it consumes a lot of energy just like [Time Rewind]. After the last experience, Ye Bai did not rashly try it in the game again, and prepared to return to reality to test the effect again.

Coming back to his senses, Ye Bai glanced at the countdown on the tree branch of life and used the tracing water drop in this uninhabited place.

"Come back when the time comes."

Regarding what happened in the divine world in the past, the origin of the great annihilation, and the mysterious God King... perhaps everything can be figured out at that time.

Of course, we must also be prepared for battle. In the last part of the mission, malicious undead and human principality forces appear. When the God King's treasure house arrives, it is very likely that a battle will be unavoidable.

"I didn't catch up. The target...lost its trace. Please punish me!"

In the wilderness, Kodos led his elite troops in a comprehensive search, but found nothing. Finally, when a familiar space passage appeared in front of him, he immediately knelt on the ground in panic, and his trusted warriors behind him knelt down together.

The other end of the passage was shrouded in darkness, exuding a deep and terrifying aura of decay.

“Hmm…”

A hoarse groan was heard from inside, and one of Kodos's men behind him trembled uncontrollably. He remembered his comrades in a mission. Because they failed to complete the mission, they were transformed from human beings into undead knights who only knew how to obey orders and kill, amidst this groan.

Unexpectedly, this time, the other party was not angry. Instead, he said, "It's not your fault this time... I feel it, it's almost there, almost there, the last of Him is about to appear, hahahaha..."

The hoarse laughter was extremely cheerful, echoing in the empty wilderness, but it only brought terror to the ears of those present.

Only Kodos thought of something and looked up in surprise: "Ancestor, you mean that..."

"Yes." The voice on the other end, in a rare good mood, replied, "The Dark King, the initiator of the Sealed Age, the legendary Curse Mage... the vanished God King."
