NOVEL NEXT Chapter 131
Chapter 131: Order Descends! Talisman of Eternal Sleep!
The glow of the sun shone as rainbow-colored light radiated all over the city, making Unfallen City look like a fairyland.
Sounds of peaceful music also resounded in the air, ringing in the ears of everyone in the city.
There also seemed to be an Empyrean Fairy dancing in the air and dropping soft petals over the city.
This was a phenomenon created by the descent of Order!
The siege war that belonged to Unfallen City had ended for quite a while. The City Master’s return and the descent of Order signified that Unfallen City had been promoted to one of humanity’s home cities, opening a new chapter in this era.
Everyone in the city listened to the sound of Order and was immersed in the various phenomena, intoxicated smiles showing on their faces.
Someone sighed and sincerely said, “It’s so comfortable! Is this the descent of Order?”
Strands of the orderly aura also blended into everyone’s body without a trace at this moment.
The attributes of everyone in Unfallen City were slightly boosted. Even some of the incurable, hidden wounds and old diseases left from the battles also disappeared at this time.
This could be regarded as another benefit of the city being promoted to a home city. Listening to the sound of Order and bathing in the light of Order could slightly improve the physiques of everyone in the city.
It was somewhat like how one’s success could improve the lives of everyone connected to them.
This was also the reason why many people wanted to join the home cities. Not only was it safer, but one would also be closer to Order.
Link was also bathed in the light of Order at this moment. As the City Master, he received a greater enhancement, and all his stats were probably improved by about 50 points.
In the apocalypse, each attribute point increase wasn’t something that was easy to achieve. This was already a big gain.
The 50-point increase in each attribute was almost the same as his [Supreme Divine Envoy] passive, similar to the effect of increasing by one level.
Moreover, Link’s mental fatigue—which had accumulated because of the long periods of battle—was also fully wiped away.
At the same time, a system notification sounded, magnificent and majestic!
[Congratulations to Unfallen City for winning the siege war and being promoted to a first-level home city!]
Everyone in the city cheered and enjoyed the joy of promotion!
This also meant that they finally had a place that belonged to them in the apocalypse and gained a firm foothold!
Standing on the city wall, Link couldn’t help but raise his mouth slightly, revealing a faint smile.
There definitely weren’t many cities in the world that could stand firm in front of the undead army and get promoted to a first-level home city.
However, this wasn’t the end but a new beginning.
A first-level home city would still encounter various crises again. If it survived, it could be upgraded to a second-level home city; the scope of Order’s protection would also expand accordingly.
In Link’s previous life, the five major home cities in the human alliance were the five most powerful cities with the highest level!
Each one of those cities encompassed thousands of miles of territory and could accommodate tens of millions, even hundreds of millions of living beings!
Link’s eyes flashed. He naturally wouldn’t be satisfied with only these current achievements, but he wanted to continue to improve and look to the future.
After calming down, Link sensed his own void energy. He soon discovered that he could soon make a new summon.
Link was at Stage Four, Level 8 now. By the time he was Stage Four, Level 9 or 10, the accumulated energy would probably be about enough for a new summon.
Due to possessing a Taboo-grade profession, the amount of EXP Link required to level up was really too much. Especially starting from Stage Four—it required a huge amount of EXP just to advance by one level.
Link killed many powerful monsters in the past two days and had only just reached a high level in Stage Four.
However, the advantages were quite obvious too. This could be seen from how Link easily overpowered most of the Stage Five enemies and was even able to fight against Stage Six existences.
This made Link look quite forward to the new summon, not knowing what race the fourth partner summoned would be.
Besides, the next promotion to Stage Five was also an extremely critical stage!
A Stage Five powerhouse—also known as a Star-rank powerhouse in Link’s previous life—was considered to have begun the climb to the stage of sanctification.
Advancing to Stage Five not only required a huge amount of EXP, but it also required a preliminary grasp of the nomological power. This was so that Link could build a domain that belonged to him.
This was just like how one of the more powerful Stage Five bosses—Prophet of Death—possessed the domain of silence.
If a Stage Five being couldn’t build their own domain, they would only be at the bottom of all Stage Five existences—even if they were lucky enough to break through to Stage Five. They practically had no hope of becoming a top [Doomsday Online] player.
Other than that, there were also differences in different domains’ strength. This difference might even be as far apart as heaven and earth. Some powerhouses could have multiple domains, and their combat power far exceeded average beings of the same stage.
The formation of a domain was related to each person’s own characteristics.
But for Link, it wasn’t difficult to master part of a nomological power and construct the domain. After all, he had experienced it in his previous life.
His understanding of the Void was very profound.
But what Link pursued was the pinnacle of strength. This meant that it was best for him to start learning how to use different nomological powers.
I need to prepare well and study nomological powers other than that of the Void, Link said silently in his heart.
As his mind was thinking of this, Link took out an object. It was a bunch of spider silk, blooming with a smooth luster and also a strange aura.
It was the Myth-grade material—one of the great gains of Link’s trip—[Spider God’s Silk]!
With a thought in Link’s heart, [Supreme Blessing] was instantly activated at this moment.
A blazing light wrapped the spider silk in Link’s hand and slowly floated into the air.
The light soon faded, and a talisman that exuded a radiant brilliance appeared before his eyes.
The talisman was woven from dense spider silk—with a spider-like symbol outlined in the middle—and it exuded a dreamlike aura.
It felt as though staring at it for a long time would make a person fall into an eternal dream!
The talisman’s appearance alone was quite extraordinary!
Link immediately checked its attributes.
[Talisman of Eternal Sleep]
Rank: Super God (Upgradeable)!
Attribute: Chaos
Introduction: A talisman woven from the silk of the Spider God. It is a part of the dreamland bridge and possesses the power of eternal sleep.
Additional Skill 1: [Dreamland] (Passive Skill): The wearer will be protected by the Dreamlands, and spiritual power will be increased by 200%. The wearer can also recover their own state and heal their injuries through the process of backtracking in the Dreamlands. Cooldown Duration: 24 hours. (Note: The backtracked time cannot exceed 24 hours.)
Additional Skill 2: [Eternal Sleep] (Active Skill): The wearer can induce eternal sleep on an enemy unit. Under the effect of eternal sleep’s power, the enemy unit has a 10% chance of falling into an eternal sleep, or their attributes are weakened and are affected by negative effects such as sleepiness and dullness. (Note: Monsters that fall into eternal sleep will be completely controlled by the Talisman of Eternal Sleep’s holder.)
Additional Skill 3: [Bridge of Dreams] (Active Skill): The wearer can mobilize the power in the Talisman of Eternal Sleep to connect to the Dreamlands and cross the huge gap between the real world and the Dreamlands.
…
After seeing the [Talisman of Eternal Sleep]’s attributes, Link couldn’t help feeling a little speechless.
This talisman was truly very powerful!
The passive skill, [Dreamland], was a godly restoration-type skill that could backtrack the user’s state! That was to say, no matter what kind of injury Link received in the future, Link could go back to his best state within the past 24 hours as long as he entered the Dreamlands!
[Eternal Sleep] even had a chance of making the opponent fall into a long, long sleep. This effect was absolutely huge in battle!
This time, not only did Link obtain a title—[Witness of the Myth]—but he also gained the [Talisman of Eternal Sleep]. This could really be described as ‘making a huge gain!’
