Alone and Infinite.

Chapter 333 SS-Rank Guild Skills!
"What's that flashing so brightly!"

Awoo felt his eyes were being dazzled, so the kitten simply covered his eyes with both paws.

The flash of light from opening a treasure chest can't be hidden by the Sharingan.

After a long wait, the double image disappeared, and Li Xia was seen sitting cross-legged on the ground.

His gaze was fixed seriously on the floating point of light held in his palm.

The light spot emitted an extremely deep orange glow, and even seemed to have a faint tendency to transform into another color.

Upon closer inspection, the luminous object could be vaguely seen.

It was a crystal that even the most magnificent gems that Aowu and Black Charcoal had ever seen could not compare to.

The egg-sized crystals possess facets and brilliance that defy description.

Faced with something beyond imagination, Aowu and Heitan fell silent, staring at the crystal alongside Li Xia.

Until Li Xia clenched his fist, briefly obscuring the light.

Aowu and Heitan finally came to their senses, gasping in amazement before looking at the panel shared by Li Xia.

[Fragment of the Secondary Law of Gravity]

【Quality: Orange - Ultimate】

[Type: One-time use Law-type Inheritance Item (Fragment)]

Effect: After use, it can condense a secondary gravitational law seed within the body.
[Synopsis: The power of the Temple of Light bound a portion of the Laws that had escaped from the Star God's body, forming this supreme treasure—a miracle only the Temple could accomplish.]

No wonder the boss was staring at that law so seriously just now!
Listen to these two words. Is this something a third-order digitist should be able to access?
Aren't these things things that should only be available in the late game?
What are laws? The fundamental rules governing the operation of the world are laws. In other words, mastering the laws is the master of the world.

Only other GMs can fight against a GM!

"As expected, it's a treasure chest that drops when luck is at its peak. It's something I got from being at my peak luck again."

Awoo shook his head:

"Boss, this is absolutely priceless!"

"Yes, it is indeed precious."

Li Xia breathed a sigh of relief. He could only say that the Hall of Light was indeed powerful. According to the description, this fragment of law was forcibly bound by the Hall's power.

Without the intervention of the temple to help extract the spoils, even if you loot the corpses yourself, you won't be able to get this level of loot even if you reach the ninth rank.

Compared to the laws of nature, equipment and items are merely external things.

Aren't GM privileges far more valuable than the equipment you get from killing monsters?
"Boss, try it quickly, this is a law! Although it doesn't have—"

Awoo tapped its head with its little paws:

"But all I can say is that this is the law!"

Without hesitation, Li Xia gripped the crystal in his palm and chose to use it directly.

[Executioner, you have not met the basic requirements for use and cannot use this item.]

?

Seeing Li Xia's gradually furrowed brows, both Black Charcoal and Aowu were somewhat puzzled.

"Meow?"

"It's not that there's anything wrong with this rule."

After thinking for a moment, Li Xia simply handed the fragment of the law to Hei Tan:
"It's not that it's unusable, Black Charcoal, you try it."

Can’t use it?
The kitten curiously took it and tried using it.

Then, in the team chat, Black Charcoal posted the message about the Hall of Light.

You do not meet the basic usage requirements and cannot use this item.

Even charcoal is unusable.
Instead, Aowu paused for a moment, as if he had thought of something.

Before it could speak, Li Xia had already handed it the seed of the law fragment.

Xiao Long's expression was serious as he grasped the seed, but after only a few seconds, he raised his head:

"I can use it."

"Then use it!"

Li Xia spoke without any hesitation.

Aowu paused for a moment, then quickly shook his head:

"Boss, don't worry, I think I know why you and Black Charcoal can't use it."

This is because of the position!

A law is an extremely profound power of rules, to put it simply.
A highly advanced operating system requires corresponding hardware to support it.

So that’s it.
Li Xia nodded slowly, indicating that she understood.

And it also reminded me of what Aowu had said before.

Insufficient stats – is it actually a problem with base stats?

As a mythical creature, Aowu is theoretically of a higher rank than the legendary creatures of the Star God.

The reason why Xiaolong doesn't seem very powerful is because its strength is limited to not exceeding Li Xia's.

Li Xia's potential is equivalent to Aowu's potential, and because of Xiaolong's talent and abilities, his rank and other attributes are also considered part of his strength.

Therefore, Aowu can use it, but neither he nor Black Charcoal can.

"Use it, woof."

Li Xia understood this point and, without hesitation, made a decision.

"it is good!"

Aowu didn't hesitate, simply nodded, and grasped the fragment.

"Bah!"

A crisp cracking sound rang out from the howling claws, and countless specks of light escaped from between the claws, floating around the little dragon.

Everything in the living room seemed to have lost its weight, floating up lightly.

Black Charcoal watched in amazement as it lifted itself off the ground, paddling its claws as if swimming through the air.

With the Flying Dance Technique active, Li Xia maintained his original posture, simply watching Aowu. Fusion with fragments of laws was a very rare experience.

Suddenly, a high-pitched dragon roar resounded in the living room. The light spots that were floating around Aowu's body seemed to be attracted by something and suddenly rushed into Aowu's body.

The little dragon opened its eyes, and saw an extremely mysterious symbol flash in its glassy dragon pupils.

Gravity returned to normal, and just as the debris was about to hit the ground, Xiao Hei instinctively adjusted its posture the instant it landed.

But then, Aowu stretched out its dragon claws and slowly manipulated the surrounding objects to land on the ground.

Then he revealed an excited smile: "Boss, we did it!"

"How about it?"

Li Xia also smiled, quite curious about the power of laws, even if it was just a fragment.

Awoo's two claws slashed through the air, creating visible ripples at their tips:

"It's amazing and complicated. This fragment of the law contains only a very small part of the law."

Even the Star God himself didn't master the secondary laws of gravity; he only grasped a very, very small portion, perhaps one-thousandth?

Li Xia couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. So, the fragments of laws that the Star God's avatar had scattered out were even fewer, perhaps only one ten-thousandth?

But when he saw the panel that Aowu posted, he immediately realized that he had disappointed too soon.

It's really hard to understand!
[Note: Law-level abilities cannot be represented in detail; only rough estimates are possible. Apostles are advised to comprehend them through their own experience.]

Secondary Law of Gravity (LV1)

[Skill Type: Law-level Skill]

[Gravity Manipulation: Capable of manipulating gravity to a small extent and within a limited range]

[Gravity slingshot: It can create a small-scale gravitational field to accelerate or decelerate matter]

[Introduction: The mysteries of the laws are contained within]

"This is."

Li Xia pondered for a moment, then slowly said:

"Similar to a talent?"

Awoo nodded excitedly:
"Yes, it's similar to a talent! In short, it's like a lump of clay; how you use the ability depends entirely on what shape you want to mold the clay into!" With a wave of its claw, the little dragon sent the nearby remote control floating up into the air.

Then, pulled by gravity, it flew right in front of me.

"Oh!"

The remote control, which had been slowly floating, suddenly accelerated and shot out as a black shadow.

Just as it was about to hit the wall, a white light suddenly appeared.

This is the protective power of the Temple of Light. Any damage caused by using energy beyond the limit within the room will be suppressed by the Temple of Light.

"The power I can manipulate right now isn't very strong, but this law isn't something that can be easily upgraded; it should be quite difficult."

That's not bad either; having another talent or ability is always a good thing.

"What about the upper limit? Like the Star God?"

Although I have never seen how powerful the Star God was at its peak, he was able to carry so many stone men across vast distances, even light-years.

Having fought monsters like the Old Gods for many years, he must be an extremely powerful being.

"The upper limit is the complete secondary gravitational law, which is much stronger than the Star God!"

With a swipe of its claws, the dragon roared, "Gravitational waves can warp spacetime. Creating black holes by hand and supernova explosions are nothing to us!"

"hiss!"

The kitten didn't understand, but it still thought it was amazing; Li Xia, on the other hand, was genuinely terrified.

In modern times, physics has proposed four fundamental forces.

The general description of gravity is: it acts on all objects with mass, and its range is infinitely far.

The four fundamental forces govern everything in the world.

Therefore, the upper limit of this law is far more terrifying than one can imagine.

After discussing with Aowu and Heitan how to use this power of law,

The three of them, master and servants, tidied themselves up and prepared to go out.

He hadn't forgotten the most important reward from this Stan Star dungeon run: two more guild advancement super rewards awaited him.

The eternal light within the Hall of Light illuminated the entire interior.

The straight avenue in front of the gate is still bustling with people; it seems the number of apostles here will never decrease.

The lively shouts of vendors and the sounds of bargaining filled the air.

Li Xia, carrying Black Charcoal and Aowu, strolled lazily down the street, basking in the vibrant life and burgeoning energy of the Hall of Light.

People can't always be on edge; sooner or later they'll break down.

There is no danger during this time in the temple; learning to relax is an essential lesson for the apostles.

After a quick look around, Li Xia, filled with anticipation for the rewards, arrived at the guild hall.

I randomly picked an unmanned self-service machine.

[Verifying permissions.]

[Verification passed. You are now the guild leader of the A-level solo guild 'Meishan'. Welcome to use the self-service machine.]

Submit the task!

[Executioner, you have submitted the guild quest!]

[Executioner, your guild 'Meishan' has been promoted to S-rank!]

[Executioner, your guild 'Meishan' has been promoted to SS rank!]

Even though the outcome was already known.

But looking at the gleaming SS-rank, Li Xia couldn't help but feel a little excited.

"Boss, quickly check the skills!"

Aowu and Heitan occupied both shoulders and stretched their heads closer.

Li Xia simply glanced at the S-rank skill pool and then directly selected one.

[Additional Settlement] LV.max
[Skill Type: S-Rank/Special Skill]

[Effect: At each settlement, if the rating is S or higher, 1-2 skill points will be awarded based on the rating.]

"Great skill! (Meow!)"

Aowu and Heitan nodded in agreement; this skill was extremely useful to them.

On the contrary, many S-level guilds do not choose this; they prefer skills that directly enhance their strength.

Simply put, the [Extra Settlement] only takes effect when the settlement score is S or higher.

How many guilds can consistently achieve an S-rank result? Getting an S-rank once out of three times is a waste of that skill.

In any case, you can also gain skill experience when you gain guild experience.

But Li Xia is different. He started with an S-level rating, and the only time he got an A-level rating in a dungeon is enough to be considered a black mark on his record.
If S-rank guilds already have such powerful skills, what about SS-rank guilds?
"Ok?"

Li Xia continued to click on the SS-level skill selection page, but a prompt suddenly popped up.

[Executioner, SS-rank and SSS-rank guild skills are custom-made skills. Shall we begin customization?]

Customized skills? What does that mean?
After inquiring with the Hall of Light, Li Xia understood that at the SS level, the Hall of Light would tailor-make a guild based on its characteristics and even the characteristics of its members.

Guilds are certainly a nuisance when there are no restrictions, but if they are properly regulated by rules, they can be quite useful.

What a single apostle cannot do, a guild may be able to do, such as conquest missions or large-scale world wars.

These all involved sending guilds directly to the front lines, while lone wolves were treated like special forces.

Therefore, the guild Hall of Light should not be suppressed indiscriminately, but should also be given certain preferential treatment.

After choosing the customization option, Li Xia began to wait.

[Searching for the career of the Executioner Apostle]

[Analyzing the executioner's combat experience]

Immediately afterwards, silhouettes of battle scenes flashed by rapidly, and Aowu and Heitan couldn't help but hold their breath, staring at the machine in front of them.

[Evaluation complete, skill pool being generated!]

[Executioner, you can choose one of the following skills]

1. Team Raider LV1
Effect: Upon the destruction of the raid group, 30% of the equipment and items in the personal inventory of each raid member will be forcibly removed.

The team raider cap is 60%.
2. Lucky Redemption LV1
Effect: After defeating an enemy, your luck will be temporarily increased by 1 point, which can be stacked up to 5 times.

Lucky Redemption has a maximum of 3 Luck points and lasts for 1 hour.
3. Time-Space Collector LV1
Effect: After defeating a powerful enemy, the Time Collector will gather the enemy's scattered power. Once enough power is accumulated, Time Coins will be produced.

The Time Collector's output limit is Time Gold Coins, currently it's Time Bronze Coins, with a single world limit of 1 coin.

----------

Three pairs of eyes moved back and forth between Lucky Redemption and Time Collector.

The first skill seems very profitable, but it is actually extremely difficult to wipe out the entire team, and it is also very rare to encounter it. You have to kill the team leader and 80% of the team members to wipe out the entire team.

This is a trap!

Li Xia opened his mouth, feeling his hands trembling slightly. Could it be that he was lucky enough to be saved?
"What are you thinking about, boss?"

After hesitating for a moment, Aowu finally revealed the painful truth:

"How could a Destiny-level talent be countered by a guild skill? This skill's rating is at most Authority-level, not even Law-level."

"Perhaps only an SSS-level skill would warrant a custom-designed Law-level skill from the Temple of Light."

Is that so?
Undeterred, Li Xia consulted the hall, then fell silent.

Silently, I chose the third option: the spacetime collector.

[Executioner, you have selected the SS-level skill: Time-Space Collector]

1. Monthly pass 2. Recommendation vote

I'm taking my little carp out for a day trip tomorrow. We'll be driving off soon and probably won't arrive until after 10 p.m.

I'll quickly find some time to write it and post it. I'll see if I have time to write it tomorrow; if not, I'll have to take a day off.
