Chapter 305: Chapter 192: Entering the Hermit’s Canyon for the First Time, Mixed-Blood Half-Dragon_1
[The ordinary Wandering Soul awakens in the Multivision Association...]
Lin Xun left the ’Temple of Knowledge’ and returned to the Multivision Association.
Before bidding farewell, the ’Knowledge God Servant’ told him that if he could obtain similar star charts in the future, he could draw from the blind box rewards of the Book of the Favored again.
He still had an incomplete ’Stars Chart’, but he didn’t know when he would manage to complete it.
Lin Xun opened his inventory and was about to click on the illusionary book of the ’Star Dome Tower.’
After the Earth Giant obtained the ’Fervent Spirit’, its magic resistance to knowledge-based skills incredibly increased, this was the perfect time to climb the tower and increase its knowledge.
Just as he was about to start the tower challenge, he suddenly remembered something.
His current knowledge was at 14600/15200, nearing knowledge overload.
If he used the rewards from tower climbing, it would undoubtedly raise the knowledge limit, requiring even more knowledge to reach overload.
The optimal solution at this point would be to overload his knowledge first, and then increase his knowledge limit.
However, overloading knowledge required a sacrificial shell...
Lin Xun looked at the shell bar, both the Engineer and Law Knight were out of commission, only the Blacksmith was still hanging on.
"The decision is made, it’s going to be you, Black... wait a minute!"
An idea flashed in his mind.
The reason he kept the shells of the Engineer and the Law Knight was because these two shells had true names. They could materialize in the real world, providing him with two extra lives.
But now he possessed the BUG-level exclusive item ’Omniscient Aspect’, which could automatically ascertain the true names of all the shells in the shell bar.
Thus, the shells of the Law Knight and the Engineer had essentially lost their value.
"Goodbye, Law Knight, and Engineer..."
When it came to discarding the Engineer’s shell, Lin Xun didn’t feel anything. However, discarding the Law Knight did make him somewhat sentimental.
[You have discarded the shell of ’Blood Sun Church’s Law Knight’!]
[You have discarded the shell of ’Pyramid Corporation’s Engineer’!]
He teleported back to the place where the dream started—the Dis Academy of the Multivision School.
The two empty slots in the shell bar were promptly filled with two energetic student shells...
"Everything is ready, let’s start the headshot."
[You open the ’Book Containing Some Knowledge’ and read within...]
[You have gained knowledge...]
[Your knowledge surpasses the critical point, you have touched the extraordinary, and are fortunate to get a glimpse of ’Almighty True Knowledge’...]
[...]
[You’re dead!]
Spending a bit of soul strength to cleanse the chaotic knowledge inside his soul, his knowledge limit was increased once more.
[The chaotic knowledge inside your soul has been swept away!]
[Your knowledge limit has increased, current knowledge 0/15300]
[You are affected by the ’Blessing of Knowledge+6’ effect, your knowledge limit is increased again, current knowledge 0/17500]
He discarded the student he had just headshot, grabbed a fresh student shell and stuffed it into the shell bar.
"Having free slots is so comfortable..."
With a sigh, Lin Xun began the tower challenge.
This time the tower challenge was much easier than the last one.
He dressed the Earth Giant in Mage’s robes to increase its knowledge resistance, plus the powerful magic resistance effect of ’Fervent Spirit’, the tower climbing challenge had never been so comfortable.
"It’s a pity that I’m still missing a magic-breaking weapon, otherwise the Earth Giant would truly become a mage killer."
The number of floors challenge terminated this time on the sixty-eighth floor.
The record of forty-nine floors was entirely elevated by nineteen floors.
As the floors increased, the strength of the monsters also increased. The Earth Giant achieving such an improvement was impressive.
Lin Xun touched his chin and thought.
If the proportion of skills used was further optimized, he could probably climb an extra floor, but trying to defeat the seventy-floors monster seemed unrealistic at the moment.
After he used the memory rewards for the fiftieth and sixtieth floor, his knowledge reached the terrifying value of 0/28500.
Compared with the upper limit increase brought about by ’Blessing of Knowledge’, ’Almighty True Knowledge’ seemed a bit stingy.
Upon this thought, Lin Xun shook his head.
’Memory of Starry Sky’ was the sugar-coated shell used by the ’Bright Stars’ to lure knowledge-seeking believers. The more ’Memory of Starry Sky’ was used, the more the user would favor the Stars.
Fortunately, he was a Covenant-Breaker, unable to join the Stars Covenant again. Basically, he was eating the sugar coating and returning the shell.
He left the Multivision Association and boarded the Brass Carriage.
[You carry the ’Memory of the Dark Dragon Knight’, according to the memory guide, you have opened a new route!]
[Please choose your destination...]
[1. Multivision School Dis Academy]
[...]
[6. Cave Leading to the Underworld Abyss]
[7. Ruins of the Star Dome Tower]
[8. Bamogo Mountain Range’s Hermit Canyon]
Lin Xun pressed the eighth option.
Next stop, continue the ’Dark Dragon Knight’s’ hereditary path!
[The Refined Copper Carriage starts and heads towards a certain direction in the mist...]
Shortly after leaving the city, he encountered another solitary giant monster.
This time, Lin Xun didn’t use ’Light of the Falling Star’, instead he summoned three lion heads to confront the giant monster, continuously using ’Knowledge Spear’ to attack it.
After a substantial increase in knowledge, the power of Knowledge Spear was immensely enhanced.
To be precise, the power of all knowledge-based skills had improved, even the defense power of ’Knowledge Grating’ had significantly strengthened.
Soon, he joyfully took a Rare+ level divinity artifact.
"Another complete divinity artifact can be assembled!"
Lin Xun silently waited for another giant monster to appear...
However, he ended up waiting for an entire day.
Until noon the next day, not only did he not encounter a giant monster, he hadn’t even reached his destination—Hermit Canyon.
