Chapter 1079: Chapter 263: Forbidden Zone Rules
Regarding the upgrade of the Epic-level Divine Ancient Dragon Library to a Legendary-level Miracle Building, Lin Rui was momentarily at a loss.
But now, with an Old Prophet who has lived over ten thousand years, Lin Rui naturally wanted to seek advice, for having an elder at home is like possessing a treasure.
He asked, "Learned Old Prophet, do you have any suggestions for upgrading an Epic-level building to Legendary-level?"
Prophet Velen thought for a moment, then replied, "Based on my readings, upgrading an Epic Wonder Building to a Legendary Wonder Building is indeed no easy task. However, since you are already involved with Divine Spirits, Divine Artifacts, and Semi-Divine Artifacts, there are still several possibilities to achieve this goal."
"Firstly, by upgrading your territory, you can choose to enhance a specific building."
To this method, Lin Rui shook his head and said, "I just upgraded to a city, obtaining the Altar of All Heavens. Continuing to upgrade this building wouldn’t be quite easy."
Velen’s eyes widened instantly, looking at Lin Rui in disbelief, and asked, "Your territory only just reached city level?"
Lin Rui smiled and asked, "What’s the matter? Does the small temple not suit you, the great deity? Joining my territory, there’s no opportunity for regret."
Velen glanced around at the densely arrayed Legendary Soldiers. Each of these mighty soldiers was well-equipped, robust, and powerfully imposing, with their Spiritual Reaction off the charts. Even if one claimed they were part of Divine Kingdom Armament or Celestial Soldiers, no one would doubt it!
And yet, they were merely the armament of a city?
What kind of city could raise such a terrifying army, with over 500 soldiers who are all Legendary-level!
Legendary Soldiers!
This is an entity that an ordinary Duchy might not even possess one of.
And this territory not only has a large number of Legendary Soldiers but also has three or four Legendary Heroes in the ranks.
Velen only felt a bit dizzy, saying, "With your strength, is upgrading that difficult? You just upgraded to a city, hence you obtained the Demigod-level Miracle Building, the Altar of All Heavens. When you next upgrade from a small city to a medium city, you should be able to select a building for enhancement."
Lin Rui still felt uncertain, stating, "Will the reward for upgrading from a small city to a medium city be applicable to an Epic-level Miracle Building?"
Velen stroked his long beard, pondering, and said, "You have a point. Once a building reaches a certain level of strength, it becomes hard to enhance through conventional means. Especially upgrading an Epic-level Miracle Building; most territories view this as a secret and seldom make it public. I cannot give you a definitive answer on the effectiveness of this method."
"But another method, I can confirm, is definitely effective."
Lin Rui immediately asked, "What is it?"
"Legendary Exploit Decree."
"What’s that?"
Velen explained, "An award given by the gods to warriors who battled the Silent Death Legion. As long as the warriors achieve outstanding exploits in this Desolate Domain World against the Silent Death Legion, they receive this reward, allowing any building in their territory or Divine Kingdom to be elevated to Legendary-level."
Such a great thing?
Lin Rui inquired with concern, "Does this reward mechanism still exist now?"
"It absolutely still exists, as I can perceive many areas in this world still exuding intense malice."
Lin Rui raised his eyebrows and asked, "Do you have to clear a forbidden zone to receive this reward?"
Velen, trembling, groomed his beard without lifting his head, saying, "Of course, such a high-level reward can’t be casually given. If you can clear a forbidden zone, the benefits you gain will surely astonish you."
Lin Rui became somewhat serious, saying, "I came here entirely to gather resources to become stronger. What’s the danger of clearing a forbidden zone? If it’s too dangerous, I won’t go in."
Velen’s eyes lit up, an excitement surging through him, he laughed heartily, "Haha, you’ve really asked the right person. In the entire Heavens and Myriads of Realms, perhaps there aren’t many who understand the Desolate Forbidden Area better than I do. Even other Divine Spirits may not know clearly."
"The danger of the Desolate Forbidden Area lies not in the number of armies inside, but in the strange rules there."
"If you can’t understand the rules, even if you take in a hundred thousand Mythical Level troops, they’d be wiped out instantly."
"Because some rules are eliminative by nature, no matter your strength, you’d vanish like smoke."
"In some forbidden zones, as soon as you enter, all your power will be stripped away, leaving you as an ordinary mortal to solve problems. At that time, even a single Tier Two Ghoul could tear your 500 Legendary Soldiers apart."
"Unless..."
"Unless what?" Lin Rui asked with concern.
Velen shook his head, saying, "Forget it, it’s impossible; no need to discuss it. You’d better think about figuring out the rules there."
"I do know six rules inside a forbidden zone, the Haunted Forest, that you can attempt."
Lin Rui asked, "What are those six rules?"
"First, being alone will ensure death."
"Second, calling out someone’s name will result in death."
"Third, after dark, you must stay by the campfire."
"Fourth, if someone asks you to play hide-and-seek, agree, and you must not be found."
"Fifth, if you hear knocking from the cemetery, do not inquire, as it might be the ’residents’ knocking."
"Sixth, if you see a mirror, you must say ’I am beautiful’. "
"What kind of deadly rules are these?" Lin Rui exclaimed, eyes wide in astonishment, "Playing hide-and-seek, staying by the campfire, not being alone, not being found. It’s practically impossible!"
