"It's 8:30 in the morning, you lazy pig," Ye Gubai replied with a smile.
Upon hearing the time, Shen Miaomiao couldn't help but exclaim, "Ah!! I overslept!"
Normally, Shen Miaomiao is in charge of making breakfast.
Every time Ye Gubai arrives, he can enjoy the breakfast that Shen Miaomiao has carefully prepared.
This time, however, Shen Miaomiao overworked herself and accidentally overslept.
At the table, Liu Mei and Delina silently watched the two joking around.
This young couple often showed off their affection in front of them.
They've made everyone numb; they want to complain, but they don't even know where to begin.
...
During his meal, Ye Gubai checked the news on his phone.
After last night's attack, he once again topped the trending searches.
Ye Gubai is attacked again; who is the mastermind behind it all...?
"Voices in the Midnight Sun: Behind the Attack on the Shen Family..."
The news articles all have very catchy titles, but you'll find out once you click in.
In reality, they have no substantial content at all; it's all just baseless rumors and trivial information.
It is worth mentioning that the attack on the Shen family last night was captured by security cameras.
In this era, the images captured by cameras are very clear.
Even at night, it can be photographed very clearly.
Even the scenes of the missile falling, exploding, and the smoke and dust rising, with Ye Gubai carrying Shen Miaomiao flying out, were recorded clearly.
The Shen family, in order to create momentum to condemn the attackers and seek compensation from the state, did not hide the footage of the attack.
They decisively published it online, allowing everyone to see what happened.
It's unbelievable that such a serious terrorist attack could still occur in this day and age.
Netizens left comments and expressed their opinions.
They vehemently condemned those human spies, cursing their ancestors for eighteen generations.
Of course, besides cursing those people as traitors.
These netizens were also concerned about Ye Gubai, who was attacked, and wanted to know if he was injured.
After all, nine out of ten netizens are not adventurers.
For them, the fact that the dungeon was cleared out and the monster area collapsed was a very good thing.
They would love for all the copies in the world to be solved, and even for those wilderness areas to be reclaimed.
Upon seeing these words, Ye Gubai smiled.
He felt the warm concern from netizens and posted three words on his personal Facebook page: 'I'm fine'.
After posting, Ye Gubai put down his phone.
Besides resting today, he also needs to study what mythical ability to exchange for.
After conquering the Ryeogo Kingdom instance, I obtained another 20 Conquest Tokens.
He has not used any of these 20 certificates of conquest to this day.
Now that everything is settled, it's time to figure out what to exchange for.
After returning to the master bedroom and thinking for a while, Ye Gubai decided to exchange for the abilities of the Five Elements.
The Five Elements, as the name suggests, are metal, wood, water, fire, and earth!
It is a fundamental way of understanding the world through the Five Elements theory.
In Ye Gubai's previous life, the meaning of the Five Elements encompassed the five basic dynamics of the Yin-Yang evolution process.
Gold represents metal, and wood represents vitality.
Water represents moisture, and fire represents heat.
The last element, "土" (tu), represents the earth element and the land.
The Five Elements represent the fundamental laws governing the world, which were used by the ancients in Ye Gubai's previous life to summarize and analyze the world.
What Ye Gubai wants to do now is to take control of the Five Elements.
Now, he possesses both wind and thunder attributes.
Thunder belongs to the fire element in the Five Elements theory, representing masculine energy, and can purify the world of filth and depravity.
The wind attribute is related to wood in the Five Elements.
In ancient times, the wind was formless.
But people noticed the element of wind by observing the sound it makes when the wind blows through the leaves.
Therefore, wind can be temporarily substituted for wood in the Five Elements.
Wind temporarily replaces wood, and thunder temporarily replaces fire.
The only missing elements at present are metal, water, and earth.
Ye Gubai pondered his abilities. Most of the combat techniques he frequently used were related to his sword.
This power, which isn't inherent to one's profession, is only related to attributes, and that might be the Eastern Star.
The Eastern Star can summon meteorites to fall, and these meteorites are composed of a large number of soil blocks, which can be regarded as the element of earth in the Five Elements theory.
Eastern Star temporarily replaces Earth.
In this way, a simple understanding of the relationships between the five elements is almost complete.
He's still missing gold and water, two abilities that Ye Gubai doesn't possess.
However, he possesses twenty certificates of conquest.
It can be exchanged with the will of Earth for the mythical abilities it needs.
This exchange was actually one of Ye Gubai's conjectures.
He didn't know what the effect of doing this would be, but his skills weren't too far off right now.
It combines defense, attack, speed, and all other aspects.
Every time he had a chance to exchange for a mythical ability, he would fall into consideration.
Because he lacks nothing, he would struggle with what to change.
This is why, even after obtaining the certificate for so long, he has only now begun to redeem it.
The simplest effect of the "Gold" ability is to generate "wealth".
In addition, it can enhance attacks, such as adding metallic properties to weapons to increase their destructive power, sharpness, and hardness.
As for the water attribute, its effects are quite unique.
It's difficult to deal much damage with just water attributes, since water is a very soft substance.
But if you think about it carefully, you'll understand how terrifying it is to control the water element.
It's worth noting that water is probably the most abundant element on the entire planet.
Including Ye Gubai's previous life, the ocean accounts for 70.8% of the entire world.
The land area accounts for only 29.2%, which is pitifully small.
If one could master the power of water, the resulting increase would be unimaginable.
Simply put, controlling the water allows you to freely enter and exit the ocean.
Although in this world, many monsters roam the waters.
But even the strongest monsters need to drink water; like humans, they have water in their bodies.
Moisture is a weakness in the eyes of someone who controls water.
All it takes is to extract the water from the other person's body, and they will die instantly from dehydration.
Therefore, even if the research on the Five Elements is unsuccessful, Ye Gubai does not believe that his exchange will be a loss.
With that in mind, Ye Gubai no longer hesitated and exchanged 20 Conquest Certificates for two corresponding abilities.

Both mythical abilities are elemental powers.
After acquiring and learning it, the effects were no different from the previous lightning control and storm power.
These are all special abilities that require no mana and have a cooldown of only 1 second.
