At the Jinlin Island wharf, merchant ships and passenger boats docked one after another. Chen Mo once again disembarked from a passenger boat and looked around at the Jinlin Island, which was very characteristic of the West Sea.
"Each province on the ancestral planet has its own unique characteristics, and each island in the Heshui Realm also has its own unique characteristics. Especially since different sea areas have different folk customs."
Although the streets were still bustling, the atmosphere was still somewhat heavy. There were many detectives in uniform on the streets, and it was obvious that a major case had occurred recently.
Chen Mo checked into a hotel, the kind where they ate and slept together. He first checked into a room, then went to the restaurant on the second floor for dinner. He was mainly monitoring the news, a habit Chen Mo brought from his ancestral planet, and it seemed he couldn't change it.
"Have you heard about the recent cannibalism?"
"I heard this is the biggest news in Jinlin Island recently! I heard that the number of people killed has reached dozens. The whole city has been in a panic recently. If this business wasn't so important and I couldn't leave, I would have left Jinlin Island long ago."
"Yeah, yeah! This... is really scary!"
"Yes, if possible, I really want to leave Golden Scale Island immediately, but I really can't leave!"
"Hehe, do you know the characteristics of the victim?"
"Oh? You knew?"
"I have a nephew who works as a detective in the police station, and he told me."
"Oh, what is it? Tell me quickly."
"My nephew said that all the victims were young geniuses who had cultivated the Tyrant Body, between the ages of fifteen and eighteen."
"Huh—so, I said these ordinary people are fine?"
"And their ages! They're all young, tender-looking teenagers! I guess that ogre really despises us old guys, all in our thirties and forties. He thinks we're too old and looks down on us! Haha..."
Chen Mo savored the delicious food while listening to the gossip. He was particularly concerned about the cannibal case.
"Ogre?! Haha... I guessed right. They really are demons, but their official name should be devil."
While eating, Chen Mo checked the system's small map. A black light spot was flashing in the northeast of the center of Jinlin Island.
Chen Mo did not choose to come to Jinlin Island casually, he came here for something important.
After killing and collecting the demons, the system gains a new function that can locate the positions of other demons.
At the same time, the system immediately issued another task.
"Background: The demonic invasion has entered its third phase, with more and more demons emerging. Demons increase their strength by preying on humans. Humans and demons cannot coexist. As a member of the human race, how can you remain immune?"
"Mission: Kill ten demons."
"Content: Find and kill ten demons. This isn't a difficult task for you, who possess the demon locator. Note: Demons must be at least at the elementary level of Hegemony. Their combat power is unmatched by the natives of the Hegemony Water Realm."
"Reward: 100 experience points per animal."
"The system is finally issuing missions normally! Is that right?! A system without missions is really hard to get used to!"
Chen Mo's initial fear of the system faded as time went on, his strength grew, and he became more accustomed to it. He no longer felt the same resistance as before, and no longer thought that the system was just a puppet when it issued tasks. Instead, he felt uncomfortable with the system not having any tasks.
The system seemed to align with his thoughts and immediately began issuing tasks.
Through this period of observation and reflection, Chen Mo also realized that although the system had never communicated with him directly, it was definitely intelligent. It understood his thoughts very well and responded accordingly.
After initially resisting the system because there were too many and too frequent guided tasks, the number of tasks immediately decreased a lot. Unless necessary, the system was very quiet, and even made Chen Mo subconsciously ignore its existence.
Everything was done subtly, guiding him along according to the system's layout. Although there might be some twists and turns, he was definitely under the system's control.
Through this period of interaction, Chen Mo gradually "accepted his fate," no longer needing to mentally prepare himself, and psychologically accepted the existence of the system. He also accepted the system's way of issuing tasks. After all, this method was more direct, and it also prevented Chen Mo from being confused and only realizing it later, and then exclaiming, "Oh, so that's how it is!"
Therefore, the system also began to issue tasks normally, allowing Chen Mo to understand more intuitively what he should do and what he should face.
In addition, after killing the demon Lin Qiaoer, Chen Mo also had enough experience points to advance to the intermediate domineering realm, and finally awakened a powerful blood inheritance - the will of the mirage dragon!
"Mirage Dragon Will" evolved from "Iron Will" and was given a new definition by the Mirage Dragon bloodline inheritance, changing from a passive skill to an active skill.
As for advancing to the Intermediate Domineering Realm, the blessing of each skill increased by another 10% to 20%, making it even more powerful.
The will attribute reached 70 points, and both perception and intelligence reached 50 points.
The explosive increase in soul attributes, especially the nearly doubled increase in will attributes, coupled with the powerful inherited skill of Mirage Dragon Will, has increased Chen Mo's combat power by nearly times.
If he met Lin Qiao'er again at this time, Chen Mo would definitely not fight with her for so long, relying on a protracted battle to wear her down. He could definitely end the battle quickly.
Jinlin Island is the place where the demons closest to him are, so Chen Mo went to Jinlin Island first.
