Everyone's playing as a roguelike, starting with an extra Mythical Relic.

After recovering to full health, Chu Yang began flying towards the teleportation point.

He had lost all interest in this orcish realm.

The death of the Beast God caused his money and experience points to skyrocket, and these excess points would be converted into the settlement score after he cleared the realm.

Chu Yang arrived at the teleportation point, but did not go in.

With five hours remaining before the checkpoint closes, Chu Yang needs to use this time to rebuild his shield.

After all, there was an orc outside who was likely at the level of an orc general waiting for him.

His current skill "Life Barrier - Purple", rune "Life Flow - Purple", and "Flowing Wind Armor - Purple" combined can increase his shield value by 18 per hour.

As Chu Yang continuously stacked his shields, people entered the teleportation point one after another, and then disappeared from the portal.

They can't wait to return to the real world.

Those who can successfully navigate the entire gate domain will become extraordinary beings upon returning to reality.

The outside world will also undergo tremendous changes because of their existence.

In addition, Chu Yang was also very excited about the rewards he received for killing the reincarnation of the Beast God.

First, there's that permanent item of gold quality.

【Primordial Human Tavern - Gold】—Permanent item, building. A tavern that refreshes daily with Primordial Human Contract Spirits. The cost of signing a contract varies depending on the strength of the contract spirit.

Contract spirits need to consume human contribution points to survive and must be absolutely loyal to their contract master.

Only one contracted spirit may be brought into the gate.

(P.S.: Contract spirits and spirit pets are different.)

"Heh~ It's getting more and more like a game..." Chu Yang couldn't help but complain.

Chu Yang was really looking forward to this permanent item, but the building could only be constructed after he left the gate domain and returned to his personal space.

Xiao Men had explained this personal space to Chu Yang; it referred to the plaza with the professional statues where he first entered the sect's domain.

Besides the [Primordial Human Race Tavern], the information about the Beast God's essence blood also changed.

【Beast God's Essence Blood】—A special item that can be given to spirit pets to increase their growth potential.

Since this is not a permanent item, it will disappear once you leave the gate area.

Chu Yang had no choice but to give it to Wan Tong.

Originally, Wan Tong's grade limit was purple (perfect). After consuming the [Beast God's Blood Essence], the grade limit reached gold (legendary).

"It seems that after leaving the gate, I'll need to find a way to obtain a large number of human contribution points..."

Both Wan Tong's growth and the recruitment of companions in the Primordial Tavern require spending human contribution points.

Moreover, Chu Yang estimated that after he finished the level, he would unlock more uses for human contributions.

Just as he had guessed, this human contribution point was the most precious resource.

Thinking about it this way, the punishment for becoming a red-named person seems even more severe.

It seems this realm is doing its utmost to prevent humans from killing each other...

Chu Yang was thinking about these things in a daze.

During this time, several scholars from the Ninth Academy came to see Chu Yang.

The first person to come looking for him was that crazy Senior Sister Mu; she wanted to fight Chu Yang.

Chu Yang naturally had no interest in such a thankless task.

Fortunately, He Xiangzhi accompanied Senior Sister Mu this time, so Chu Yang wasn't bothered by this crazy woman for too long.

Then Liu Yuanliang arrived, and he had a very good impression of this scholar from Qingwu Academy.

Liu Yuanliang came to him wanting to buy the essence blood of the Beast God, but unfortunately, the essence blood of the Beast God had already been swallowed by Wan Tong.

To his surprise, Li Xinming also came to see him.

He came to find Chu Yang to invite him to join the Jade Emperor Academy.

Chu Yang was quite interested in the Ninth Academy, but unfortunately he wasn't from this world, so he couldn't join.

He also tried to tell these scholars from the Nine Academies about the Gate Domain, but they seemed unable to receive any information related to the Gate Domain, just like the original inhabitants before them.

They seemed to have been implanted with an unwavering belief that the door openers were an ancient and mysterious organization of the prehistoric human race.

After a long time, Zhao Baining also arrived here.

She was the last person to arrive at the teleportation point and push open the door.

The two didn't chat for long before Zhao Baining hurriedly entered the teleportation point.

She couldn't wait to get out and save her sister.

Five hours later, Chu Yang's shield value had accumulated to over 90, and he finally stepped into the teleportation point.

A flash of white light appeared, and seven professional statues appeared before Chu Yang's eyes. He returned to his personal space.

At the same time, a system notification sounded:

"Level 10, cleared."

"Clearance rating: SSS; rewards increased."

"1. Gain 500 Human Contribution Points."

"2. Obtain one pink item (choose one from skill books, runes, or relics)."

It's certain that Chu Yang will get an SSS rating, after all, he even single-handedly defeated the hidden boss.

The first reward for clearing level 10 surprised him.

He had just realized the importance of human contribution points when he received this great reward.

For the second reward, Chu Yang could only choose runes.

His current four skills are all well-suited to the job, and the same goes for his relics; almost every one of them is very useful.

Only the runes offer a relatively large selection.

After he selected the rune, he immediately saw three options.

{Pulse-Extending Talisman - Powder} - A universal rune that adds three rune slots when equipped.

{Burning Marrow Rune - Powder} - Skill Rune: The current skill no longer consumes mana, but instead consumes health, and the damage is doubled.

{Parry·Powder} - Parry rune, which reflects 100% of the damage when a parry is successful.

Of these three pink runes, Chu Yang could only choose one: {Pulse Opening Rune - Pink}.

This is truly a versatile and excellent rune. Chu Yang was just wondering how to choose which runes to use under the skill "Shield Blast Technique" when he found a solution.

Just after Chu Yang selected {Pulse Unblocking Talisman - Powder}, the notification sound for clearing the gate domain rang out.

"Congratulations, you have cleared the [Orcish Race Tier 1 Gate Domain]!"

"Please organize your backpack and confirm the final build for your current class."

"Apart from permanent items, all other items in the backpack will be converted into completion points. These completion points can be used to increase your job level."

"After completing the process, click 'Confirm' to begin calculating your completion score and saving your character's final profile."

Chu Yang's backpack currently contains over 360 items and over 112 million in cash.

Permanent Items: [Universal Language Master] *2, [Universal Eyes], [Primordial Tavern], [Rune Technology Blueprint]

Here, I'd like to focus on the choice between the relics. Chu Yang ultimately chose the [Raider's Blade - Purple] over the [Substitute Doll - Purple].

It was a difficult choice, and in the end, Chu Yang chose greed over survival.

Because unless he encounters a monster like the reincarnation of a beast god again, he is unlikely to need the [Substitute Doll].

He couldn't give up the mana regeneration effect of [Wind's Breath - Purple], so he had no choice but to abandon [Substitute Doll].

"Looks like I'll have to stack shields more frequently from now on..."

Chu Yang checked his character's final build several times before clicking "confirm."

The system also started calculating his score for passing the level.
