Strange Era: An exclusive talent every month.

From this, Chen Ye knew just how abnormal his deduction space was, capable of deducing a great many runes. When learning inside, the passage of time outside would become very slow.

Moreover, copying these books is, in essence, very simple. It only takes a few seconds to read them once and then write them into one's own deduction space.

As Chen Ye read more and more books, his mastery of talisman literature deepened.

"Although the runic writing of Sky City is not as extensive as that of Chinese characters, each rune contains a great deal of meaning, so it is not easy to decipher... Fortunately, Wan Yi is here to guide me, otherwise I would not have been able to understand many of the characters."

Through reading these texts, Chen Ye gained a certain understanding and mastery of the runic literature of Sky City.

At this moment.

Chen Ye browsed the entire bookstore. When he picked up a book, he only stayed for a few minutes before starting to flip through the next one.

This scene surprised Jiu Feng somewhat.

She knew Chen Ye read very quickly, but she didn't expect him to be able to thoroughly understand a book in just a few minutes.

I'm becoming increasingly interested in Chen Ye.

"almost."

Chen Ye had been reading for almost half a day, gaining a wealth of knowledge about the spirit world. He took a deep breath, looked at the people behind him, and said:
"We can go out now."

Actually, Chen Ye still wanted to stay in the "Corner Bookstore" and continue reading, since there were still several rows of bookshelves he hadn't read yet.

Despite its small size from the outside, the "Corner Bookstore" is actually quite spacious inside. It utilizes the refraction properties of space to expand the space, and part of it is a mirrored space, which is somewhat similar to the characteristics of the "Mirror Man" in the Strange Era.

[The person in the mirror] is able to move within the reflection range of a mirror, that is, to hide inside the mirror.

Therefore, in some apartments in the Weird Era, there is an urban legend that you shouldn't look in the mirror at midnight.

That was the time when the "Mirror Man" hunted.

If you rashly touch a mirror or other reflective object, you might get killed by this kind of thief.

Therefore, the "Mirror Image" class is quite popular as a third-tier job and is the class used by many new players in the "Space" class.

Reaching this stage, in the early stages of the bizarre era, would make one a top-tier expert.

but.

Chen Ye's current level of understanding is definitely different from before, so his evaluation of the "Corner Bookstore's" use of space is basically basic and rudimentary, without anything particularly outstanding.

In fact, "Corner Bookstore" is a well-established brand, and the books inside have been around for many years. Most of the books here are unsold and are provided to customers for free.

As Chen Ye and the others were about to leave, the girl sitting at the counter glanced at Chen Ye and gave him a look of approval.

The young woman understood very well the refined quality that comes with reading, so she knew that although Chen Ye hadn't been reading for very long, he must have absorbed a lot of knowledge.

Even their social standing shows signs of improvement.

After all, the more you know, the higher your rank will be in the world of the bizarre era.

knowledge is power.

The girl could sense the power of the wellspring of knowledge within Chen Ye's body rising steadily, as if constantly gathering into a wondrous spring that could provide a nourishing force.

"That's really good!"

Chen Ye kept recalling the knowledge of the spirit world in his mind, feeling a sense of attachment to it.

This knowledge is extremely useful, as it can dissect the structure of the spirit world as if it were being dissected.

at the same time.

Chen Ye looked at Zhiyin with surprise in his eyes.

Through systematic learning and understanding, Chen Ye knew that the council was a very difficult place to enter. To enter, one had to pass an examination such as the Dharma Aspect and reach the S-level before one could enter the council.

Currently, even the Dharma form of Great Compassion has only touched upon S-level and may not be able to reach true S-level. However, the Dharma form of Soulmate is clearly not an ordinary S-level. Without a doubt, among everyone present, the strongest contestant is Soulmate!
Of course, since the other party has the status of a council member, it is impossible for them to participate in the battle in the arena.

Those are all things that diminish one's worth.

No contestant who could reach the upper echelons of the council would be willing to go to the arena, not only to participate in the challenge against star contestants, but also to start from the bottom. More importantly, they would have to pay an entrance fee of 500 to enter...

Anyone who manages to reach a position on the council can easily earn thousands of gold coins, or even tens of thousands. They have plenty of opportunities to do so and would never go to this kind of venue to earn such gold coins.

Moreover, the venue's expenses wouldn't be enough to support star athletes of this caliber.

The curator's own abilities are only those of an ordinary council member.

Therefore, Chen Ye roughly knew that the council was a significant turning point for Sky City, and reaching that level would definitely bring very different resources.

Once you gain status, resources will naturally follow.

Of course.

That idea is just wishful thinking; it's completely impractical.

At Chen Ye's current level, he is still some distance from being a star player. His mastery and application of Dharma images are not yet at that level.

We can only improve gradually.

Subsequently.

The group walked down the street, passing through a variety of colorful shops, and through the star-studded avenue paved with gemstones, before arriving at the Yuecheng Hotel.

"Let's rest here at Yuecheng Hotel."

Wan Yi suggested.

Everyone nodded; they were all a bit tired after walking for so long.

Moreover, the corner bookstore doesn't even have seats. If you want to sit and read, the only way is for the girl at the counter to give up her seat, which is obviously unlikely.

Afterwards, the group entered the Yuecheng Inn and each spent ten gold coins to stay there for one night.

The Yuecheng Hotel has a European-style decor. Each person has their own room, which is about 30 square meters in size, so it is quite spacious.

The shower room and the bedroom are separated by a partition. The room is decorated very luxuriously, with an overall warm color scheme, making it quite comfortable to stay in.

After a long and tiring day, Chen Ye decided to go into the shower room and take a good shower.

He suddenly discovered that the bathwater in this inn had a moisturizing effect, supposedly because it was water collected from the Tianshan Mountains.

On the first level of the sacred mountain, there is a large waterfall with very clean water. It is said that drinking the water there has a nourishing effect on the body.

Almost every innkeeper near Xuanwu Gate would try to get water from the Tianshan Mountains as a backup water source.

Moreover, the electrical appliances here are designed to be far more sophisticated, far surpassing those of the steam age.

As for the electrical appliances in the Strange Era...

They've all been made weird and unusable!
therefore.

Chen Ye was once again amazed by the civilization of Sky City; it was truly magnificent.

However, in order to complete the conquest of the Strange Era, it would be better for me to go back.

"Let's set up a portal here first." Chen Ye set up a portal to nothingness in this location so that he could teleport back from the same spot next time he returned.

The sound of the suona horn is played, and in the void, a gate to nothingness is drawn.

At this moment.

Before Chen Ye appeared a void gate, connecting the present world and the other side.

He went up above the gray fog again and could see two gates spanning the area.

among them.

One door leads to the location the spirits themselves set up in the spirit world, and the other door leads to the staff lounge on the second floor of the "Honesty Restaurant".

Chen Ye took another step forward.

Space was displaced.

next second.

Chen Ye's figure reappeared on West Street in the eerie era.

"Finally home."

Chen Ye smiled slightly.

Although it seems like only a few days have passed in the spirit world, it feels like a very long time has gone by.

After all, they were heading to the sacred mountain.

In the spirit world, they have already gone quite far.

At this moment.

Chen Ye glanced at the time and realized that there were only five days left until the end of the month.

"Dawn has already reached the 40 million mark on the leaderboard?"

Taking out his blood-red phone, Chen Ye deftly opened the ebony flip phone and, with a series of skillful operations, immediately opened the "Monthly Ranking" to view the information.

turn out……

Chenxi and Baichen have both reached the 40 million level, taking a big step closer to their own 55 million.

While he was undergoing spiritual advancement in the spirit world, he couldn't find a suitable opportunity to return to the world of the strange era.

Chen Ye then took out a dragon bone.

[Detection: You possess a unique trait that can be fused—Ancient True Dragon Bone. Do you wish to fuse with it?]

The direction of the integration is to merge with the profession of [Supreme Destiny].

After all, the [Supreme Ruler of Destiny] can control the energy of the dragon vein.

Moreover, upon returning to the present world, the body he actually used was Chen Ye's original body.

When they are active in the spirit world, it is the spiritual entities constructed by the spirit that carry out their activities.

"I never imagined I could already integrate new characteristics!"

Chen Ye was somewhat surprised.

Therefore, it seems that the world of the Strange Era also has its unique aspects.

Once you arrive at this place, many characteristics can be directly integrated.

If this were in the Sky City, fusing with this dragon bone would probably require the help of the Celestial Dragons.

After all, the Celestial Dragons have a unique understanding of dragons and know how to maximize the effects of dragon bones so that they can fuse with their own bodies.

However, the Celestial Dragons are all very selfish and extremely xenophobic.

If Chen Ye were to find the Celestial Dragons, not only might he not get help in fusing the dragon bones, but he would also be coveted by a group of snobbish Celestial Dragons who would want to seize the dragon bones from his body for their own use.

Therefore, it is extremely dangerous to rashly seek out the Celestial Dragons for help.

but……

Now that he has returned to the world of the bizarre era, Chen Ye can directly fuse with this unique dragon bone, which will undoubtedly allow him to instantly reach the sixth level of his [Heavenly Mandate Supreme] profession!

next second.

Chen Ye did not hesitate and chose to merge!

A strange feeling suddenly accompanied Chen Ye's entire body, making him feel exceptionally radiant.

That feeling that seemed to be able to see through everything, along with the fusion with the dragon bones, caused the dragon vein energy in his body to roar, like a magnificent mountain and river!

At this moment.

Suddenly, a high-pitched dragon roar emanated from Chen Ye's body, shaking the heavens!
In that instant, a golden beam of light suddenly shot straight into the sky above the Chengxin Restaurant!
This scene.

Wang Jing, Shen Meng, and the Nine-Tailed Fox downstairs were all taken aback and hurriedly went upstairs to check.

"Don't come over yet."

Chen Ye transmitted his voice spiritually, saying, "It's me. I'm currently integrating my special abilities. You need to guard the door for a while."

"Oh, it's the boss!"

Wang Jing and the others suddenly realized what was going on. When they learned that their boss had suddenly returned, they were all quite surprised and delighted.

After all, it's been quite a long time since we've seen the boss come back!
Unexpectedly, as soon as the boss returned, he immediately integrated the characteristics and upgraded the level!
"As expected of our boss, he's truly powerful. In such a short time, he's already brought back such a powerful item with unique properties for fusion. It seems the boss is about to become much stronger!"

Wang Jing thought to himself.

at this time.

Wang Jing's profession has already reached the fifth level, [Gourmet Master Chef].

With the high salary Chen Ye offered Wang Jing, he could easily find and purchase many items with unique properties suitable for him in the [mysterious black market].

Chen Ye would occasionally browse the [mysterious black market].

If they see any suitable items with special properties, they will buy them for Wang Jing.

Then, through the trading function, these special items can be distributed to the royal realm for free.

After absorbing the energy for a long time, Wang Jing's current rank is getting higher and higher.

Since becoming the [God of Gourmet Food], Wang Jing's control over food has reached a level of perfection, enabling him to create incredibly delicious dishes. With the [protection of the God of Gourmet Food], the combination of these two factors makes creating S-grade cuisine a piece of cake.

Moreover, once the rank is increased, the delicacies in the King Realm can usually guarantee a lasting effect for two or three days.

This is already incredibly outrageous! (End of Chapter)
