Relax, I'm not some troublemaker from a role-playing game.

Upon seeing the message, Bai Xi's first reaction wasn't to level up, but to click on the so-called leaderboard.

He was genuinely curious.

He just killed a total of 53 explorers, and you're telling him he's only fourth on the leaderboard?!

What level of people are those four in front of us?

He subconsciously clicked on the leaderboard, and then felt a wave of blindness wash over him.

【No. 1 Glory】

【No. 2 Daughter of the Dream Kingdom】

【No.3 Great Priest】

[No. 4 The Sword of Darkness]

Looking around, all you see are colorful titles.

The title "All Special Ones" is unique!

That's not surprising.

It's worth noting that currently, only ten people in the entire game have completed an S-rank dungeon and earned the unique title.

If you remove Bai Xi and Jiang Lingyi, there are only eight people left. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that they are extremely rare.

Without exception, they were all candidates for legendary investigators, each possessing unique skills.

Bai Xi wasn't surprised that some of them surpassed him.

"But come to think of it, I'm already one of the top ten players in the entire server. Thinking about it that way, I feel pretty strong."

To be honest, I think the stronger one isn't you, it's Serpes.

If you can't even reach this level with Seraphine's blessing, then I'll really have to attack you severely.

"What are you saying? What are you saying?"

Bai Xi's lips twitched, and then he decisively replied:

"Why are you making such a big deal out of Seraphine and my affairs? Can't her credit be attributed to me too?!"

Speechless, typical troublemaker mentality.

Baek Hee suspected that KP had wanted to say this for a long time, but he had no proof.

Without dwelling on the matter, Bai Xi quickly began searching on the interface and then clicked into the upgrade interface for the event.

After killing 53 explorers, Bai Xi gained a lot of experience and has now risen to around level three and a half.

Now is the time to claim your rewards.

[Now upgraded to Level 3, the following are the basic numerical rewards:]

Explorers gain two Hit Dice for growth; each Hit Dice grants the investigator 1d8 maximum health. This effect ceases upon leaving the event.

【每次可以在下列选择中选择其一：额外获得1d6HP上限，额外获得1d6MP上限，获得1点护甲值】

[Upon reaching level 5, base stat bonuses will include increased damage.]

Bai Xi glanced at the data briefly, then fell into deep thought.

Suddenly, I breathed a sigh of relief.

"Thank goodness, I still have enough output."

升级单次最多获得1d8+1d6的HP，平均期望是8点。

Based on an initial health of 10, Bai Xi would need to reach at least level 4 before he could possibly kill the enemy with a single strike.

His output is sufficient for now.

As for his own upgrade, Bai Xi thought for a moment and decided to distribute it evenly, giving one part to his health bar and the other part to his mana bar.

With the Icarus mech, his need for health points isn't actually that high anymore.

Anyway, with his current stats of 45 HP and 6 armor, and before everyone's damage output was buffed, Bai Xi really didn't believe anyone could kill him.

【生命值成长=2d8+1d6=2+5+5=12点，当前 HP上限 21点】

[Magic Power Growth = 1d6 = 5 points, Current MP Limit: 20 points]

[Your upgrade path selection is now available]

Explorer, you have already emerged from those three stories; now, let the stories reshape you.

Because all of this is a record, including the very ground beneath your feet, a forgotten land that has been documented.

Now, from the records, the One Who Unifies All Things will build a bridge for you, extracting that true essence from endless possibilities.

It seemed to reveal some inside information about the module, including the mysterious riddle-maker. Bai Xi decided to ignore it for now.

Instead, he looked at the detailed description and, after a moment, understood:

Simply put, this level progression is like saying, "I'm not going to be human anymore!"

Based on the mythical creatures encountered by explorers in past instances, explorers can choose those mythical creatures with whom they have established a certain connection, and then evolve themselves in a direction that is closer to them.

And ultimately, they become a specific individual.

This thing is even nominally a gift from Bubble, which is absolutely amazing.

Of course, there doesn't seem to be any problem if one wants to continue being human.

While everyone has an A rating and possesses some skills, not everyone with an A rating is associated with powerful mythical creatures.

To achieve a semblance of fairness, Bubble also provides an option: players can evolve randomly, but it's anyone's guess what bizarre shape they'll become.

Of course, none of this mattered much to Bai Xi.

Because his resume is truly impressive.

So, he readily opened the upgrade option, and even though he was prepared, Bai Xi was still momentarily stunned.

Wait, is my resume really that impressive?

Shouldn't they be something like the Invisible Ones?! Why are there so many?

【Pathway 1: Favored Ones】

As someone who has received Cthulhu's gaze, you possess the potential to become a chosen one of the stars.

I jumped and attacked Cthulhu, and this is what I get? What if Cthulhu holds a grudge against me forever?

[Pathway 2: The Ruler of the Invisible Child]

[The Unseen Child, born under Abhoth's adoration, expresses her heartfelt gratitude to you because you once had a relationship with a super-individual among the Unseen Children.]

This is incredible! Is this Alice? So, after Alice's transformation, she becomes the Unseen Ones?

Does Monster Hammer contain this item?

[Pathway 3: Nyarlathotep's Incarnation - Bai Xi]

"I really like you, so how about we ditch Serapace and elope? You see, I can let you be my incarnation."

Bai Xi spat it out.

God is an incarnation of an outer god, but what the hell is Nyarlathotep?!

Damn it, Nyarlathotep is still chasing me!

If I were to become your incarnation, then it would be a question whether I would still be Bai Xi! I'm out of luck with Naya's favor!

I can't afford to mess with you, goodbye!

[Route 4: Son of Yogthethos]

I am watching you.

Bai Xi's hands started to tremble.

Ordinary Outer God offspring might be nothing special, but these are Bubble's offspring.

Although there were two shameful people who were bitten to death by dogs, can they be compared?

But when Bai Xi saw the last line of writing, he fell silent.

[Route 5: Serpes's Only Relative]

Well, it's up to you. Anyway, since you want me to place a bet, I'll give you a little something.

Although it was said to be casual, Bai Xi always felt that there was a hint of death threat in it.

Just as he was about to tearfully throw himself into Serpes's arms, suddenly, most of the writing on it blurred, and a new line of writing appeared.

[Detected possession of the Variegated Blade]

[Extremely unique trait detected, new pathway generated]

[Pathway 6: The Last Chief of the Myth Processing Bureau - A Wandering Soul Beyond Time and Space]
