Chapter 63: The Golden Flash!
A prompt popped up for Xiao Yang from the Godly Game.
[Player Holy Light Envoy has issued a cross-plane commission to you via the Justice Squad, targeting Small Plane No. 6377.]
[Preserve the Spark of Life
Objective: Protect the last human gathering place in Small Plane No. 6377 from a beast tide.
Reward: 200 Holy Light Papal Contribution Points.
Do you wish to accept?]
Naturally, even if he were truly meant to act as a savior, Xiao Yang's fragile physique could hardly serve as the main force. The target of the commission issued to him by the Holy Light Envoy this time was a small-scale world.
That meant a small world with a world level not exceeding thirty.
Although the power systems across various worlds varied wildly, generally speaking, a world's tier could be determined based on the supernatural upper limit it could accommodate.
A small world had a world level not exceeding thirty and could accommodate level thirty players; a medium world had a world level not exceeding sixty and could accommodate level sixty players; a large world had a world level of ninety; while a super world could accommodate gods.
Such a small world presented a challenge for Xiao Yang, but the trouble shouldn't be particularly overwhelming. Moreover, what he needed to do wasn't to purge the world of monsters, but merely to help a survivor settlement weather a single beast tide.
It could be considered a moderate challenge, yet one that would not subject Xiao Yang to excessive risk.
Without any hesitation, Xiao Yang chose to accept.
A hazy golden light fell upon Xiao Yang, and everything before his eyes gradually began to blur. Xiao Yang's very first cross-plane journey was about to begin.
Amidst the haze, when Xiao Yang opened his eyes once more, he had arrived in the new world.
Upon opening his eyes, the first thing that came into view was an unfamiliar ceiling.
A yellowed ceiling, shattered windows, a battered and rusted iron door, and a skeleton leaning back against the floor.
It seemed he had not been directly teleported to the target location. Xiao Yang moved a few steps and approached a nearby window, where a desolate city revealed itself before him.
"A wasteland world?"
The pop-up window of the Godly Game explained the reason why he had appeared here.
[Teleportation complete. Supernatural power in this plane is surging, causing a slight deviation in the teleportation coordinates.]
More pop-up windows from the Godly Game appeared.
[Detected the presence of a Plane Lord in this world. The local branch of the Godly Game attempted to take over the player, but was rejected. The local branch of the Godly Game requested to take over the player's communication permissions, but was rejected. The request from the local branch of the Godly Game has been rejected.]
[Plane teleportation service concluded. Players, please enjoy your journey across the heavens!]
Faced with that series of prompts, whether it was his imagination or not, Xiao Yang felt that ever since the upgrade, the Godly Game had become somewhat more sentient. And those rejections inexplicably gave him a certain impression.
"You have no right to meddle with a player belonging to me!"
It gave him such a strangely unyielding feeling, and the side that felt even more unyielding was the Godly Game system that had followed him across from his own plane with its long-arm jurisdiction.
How subtle. Was there bullying even among Godly Game systems?
And why were you acting so unyielding when facing the Godly Game system of a minor plane? Who was it that was shouting at the top of their lungs for assistance not long ago when encountering an evil god?
Xiao Yang, whose aftereffects from facing the evil god head-on had not completely subsided, let his thoughts wander wildly. Right now, his train of thought was exceptionally erratic.
The pop-up windows of the Godly Game were not yet finished.
[Dungeon Delver activated. Player, please check your rewards promptly!]
"Right! This is it!"
Xiao Yang snapped his fingers happily.
This was also an important reason why he had accepted the commission from the big shot Holy Light Envoy—after all, how could a Dungeon Lord ever refuse a cross-plane journey!
Two items and one gift box appeared before Xiao Yang.
The two items were of blue quality, while the gift box emanated a purple glow.
[Lesser Dragon Bloodline
Quality: Excellent
Effect: Grants a certain proportion of dragon bloodline upon use.
Description: Whether you are a sub-dragon, earth dragon, dinosaur, bird dragon, or fish dragon, that's fine too!]
The Lesser Dragon Bloodline took the form of a test tube filled with crimson blood.
[Pale Dragon Scale Stone
Quality: Excellent
Effect: Can provide a favorable growing environment and nutrients for dragon-attribute plants.
Description: Seabirds like to defecate on small islands; coincidentally, certain blue dragons think the same way.]
The Pale Dragon Scale Stone looked like an off-white stone riddled with numerous pores, and its description was rather subtle.
Xiao Yang always felt that the farming elements in these delver rewards had been a bit too abundant lately. While delving dungeons and farming were indeed two highly compatible elements, if one actually tried to do both simultaneously, it would lead to liver failure!
Passing over the Pale Dragon Scale Stone,
The main event came next. One had to admit that delving into worlds was truly the most exhilarating part. It was time to open the gift box again.
What kind of rewards would an Epic-tier gift box yield?
Following Xiao Yang's confirmation, the gift box swelled up significantly. Suddenly, a burst of golden light appeared before him, causing his eyes to widen instantly.
"A golden flash!"
Xiao Yang cried out in shock, instantly growing excited.
The description of the gift box was true; this thing could actually yield items of a higher tier! Xiao Yang had pulled a golden item from a purple Epic box!
[Heart of the Light-Dark Dragon
Quality: Legendary
Description: The heart left behind after the fall of the Light-Dark Dragon Redelici. Interwoven with light and darkness, it can serve as the core of a ritual. Perhaps you can use it to class-change into the Dragon Glutton profession.]
Perhaps because this heart was too rare, the Godly Game even thoughtfully displayed a portion of the information regarding the Dragon Glutton profession to Xiao Yang.
[Dragon Glutton
Quality: Legendary
Description: Follow the dragons, learn from the dragons, devour the dragons, surpass the dragons!]
Xiao Yang was overjoyed, not only because his gamble as a high roller had successfully yielded a golden legend from the Epic gift box, but also because he had acquired a crucial puzzle piece for the Legendary profession of Dragon Glutton.
He had to admit that Xiao Yang was tempted. This might just be the profession he wanted—no, this *was* the profession he wanted!
It was already a golden legend; he could ask for nothing more. Accepting the dispatch this time was simply value exceeding the price paid. Having just landed and without doing anything yet, it was already entirely worth the ticket price for him.
Of course, getting his money's worth did not mean Xiao Yang intended to slack off. Xiao Yang was very dedicated; since he had accepted this commission, he would certainly do his best to help the friends of this plane through their crisis, though he did have to resolve a minor trouble before finding them.
Carefully putting away the Heart of the Light-Dark Dragon, Xiao Yang drew the Solace of Justice from his waist. He had to admit that although he already possessed the toxic longsword, the Solace of Justice still felt much more comfortable in his hand.
Xiao Yang cast his gaze not far away, where monsters resembling giant, bipedal lizards had appeared before him.
