Stone of Prison of God (Enhanced): Upgrade a random skill. Cooldown duration is 2 months.

Lin Jie played with the stone while thinking in his heart, ‘The enhanced Stone of Prison of God is really different.’

The Stone of Prison of God came from the Prison of God. But it was said that there would be a slim chance of entering this mysterious Prison of God only after exploring the secrets of the Three Legendary Secret Regions.

In Lin Jie’s previous life, it had almost turned the game world upside down when it had first appeared. As it could upgrade a skill, if one could gather a large number of skills, they would be able to upgrade them infinitely and master a large number of divine skills!

However, after long-term practice, players had found that the Stone of Prison of God was really a scam. There was only a 5% chance for it to upgrade a skill, but a much higher chance to downgrade. For example, if Lin Jie’s Epic Skill, the Armor Removal, was downgraded due to the effect of the Stone of Prison of God, it would become a rare skill, and then a normal skill.

In his previous life, hundreds of people had been scammed by the Stone of Prison of God. The reason there were so few was that the Stone of Prison of God was too rare.

Lin Jie recalled that Ophadi Wantless had bought a Stone of Prison of God at a price of millions of gold coins. This stone had helped him to upgrade the Flash Spell to Thousand Flash, whereby he could clone after the Flash. This was known as the most powerful escape skill.

Lin Jie took a deep breath. What surprise would this stone bring to him? If he enhanced the Clomaros’ Kill, what would it become?

With plenty of expectations, Lin Jie crushed Stone of Prison of God.

—’Your skill Armor Removal has evolved to Dragon Armor Removal’

Dragon Armor Removal: Sub-Legendary Skill. You can shackle targets in the range for 1 second, and strip all defense equipment in 5 seconds, with a cooldown of 10 minutes.

(Sub-Skill of Dragon Armor, you can receive relevant missions from Warrior Mentor and learn the Heritage of Dragon Armor.)

Lin Jie was shocked. This stone was really extraordinary as it had enhanced Armor Removal to a Sub-Legendary Skill, the Dragon Armor Removal! If he had this skill when fighting Eighteen Massacres earlier, he would not have wasted so much time! All he needed to do was to attack with a slap, followed by a stab, and Eighteen Massacres would be killed instantly!

In addition, this skill came with the Heritage Sub-Legendary Skill, the Dragon Armor. This was a heritage skill that Shield Specialists would have 1 in 100,000 chance to receive after they changed jobs. If they spent a year to farm all the missions, they would be able to learn the complete Dragon Armor, and cover their bodies with dragon scales, which greatly increased their Defense. They would also receive the dragons’ talents, which had a high level of Magic Resistance.

If Lin Jie had this skill in his previous life, he would be ecstatic. But in this life, he was one of the top players, and his horizons had been broadened. Hence, solely Dragon Armor could not attract him. What he wanted to learn was the heritage from hero-level figures, at least from the Wind Rider Sword Saint, or even from Clomaros!

Lin Jie could not wait to activate this move. He waved the Broken Blade, and a huge and powerful dragon was converged as it roared. Wherever it went, the air turned violent, and even the most powerful equipment would be temporarily swallowed!

“Good! Sub-Legendary skills are really remarkable!” Lin Jie was surprised, but his harvest was far more than this. Before him, a crystal clear blood bead was floating.

The King of Barbarism’s Blood Essence!

This was what the God of War wanted before he had become a god. It could change the human lineage into the barbarians’.

What was a lineage? It was the power that one was born with! Some people were born with supernatural power, while some were intelligent, and that explained lineage.

After job-changing to Warrior, Lin Jie’s strength growth was 1; that was to say, every point of strength increase would lead to a 1 point increase in attack power. But after obtaining the Barbarians’ Lineage, his strength growth would rise to 1.2, which was a 20% increase! This meant that Lin Jie’s attack power was 20% higher than that of a Warrior of the same level and equipment! What a terrible concept was this?

Lin Jie could not wait to open his mouth and swallow that drop of blood.

It had no fishy smell and tasted sweet, like Maltesers.

Then, Lin Jie felt that every single cell of his body moved restlessly, his blood seemed to break through the veins. According to many of the books that Lin Jie had read, he was probably going to suffer from the pain his evolution brought. Hence, he was smart enough to turn off the pain sense from the System Column.

Clang—

Visible to the naked eye, Lin Jie’s arms were bulging. His blood was like a roller coaster roaring inside his body, bringing powerful strength.

‘Hehehe, I knew it! I was almost killed by such a transformation during the job-changing mission. Fortunately, I turned the pain sense off before it started, or else I would not be able to turn it off during the process.’

Lin Jie, while humming a song, took out the Goblet of Soul. He found that his limbs were soft as he moved, which was obviously the enhancing process’ aftereffect.

When the players underwent the job-changing, they were actually changing their lineage according to the completion of the mission. Some players would even get the lineage of ancient races. During the transformation, the system would put the players through a lot of suffering.

Previously, many people had thought it had been a hidden mission of the system, and they would be able to get extra rewards after they survived the pain. But after a long time, they had realized that the pain had been deliberately created by the system to torture them!

With this experience from his previous life, Lin Jie would definitely avoid the torture in this life.

Looking at the Goblet of Soul in his hands, the corner of Lin Jie’s mouth curled up. “Graham, I’ve taken the blood of the King of Barbarism, and now I have the pure lineage of Barbarians. Didn’t you say that the Ancient Wilderness Battleaxe needs to be inherited by blood? Well, give it to me!”

Graham hesitated and said, “Master, I’m more than willing to teach you, but in order to inherit this skill, you have to feed me with enough—”

Before he finished his sentence, Lin Jie opened the Character Card—he was about to destroy it!

Graham’s soul shook, and he shouted in panic,” Master, master, please don’t kill me. I will teach you, I promise I will!”

“Teach me now, or else, die!” said Lin Jie calmly.

Whoosh—

A string of light blue aura entered Lin Jie’s mind and converged into the shape of the Ancient Wilderness Battleaxe. At the same time, system messages rang.

—’You learned the skill Ancient Wilderness Battleaxe (Note: Cannot be activated)’

“Master, I’ve taught you the skill.” Graham wanted to talk, but his soul vanished.

There was no “undo” system in The New Age.

Lin Jie’s goal had been achieved. After the completion of the Secret Technique of Clomaros, there had been a whole stream of information behind the Goblet of Soul. It was the introduction of Ancient Wilderness Battleaxe. To use this skill, one must become the City Leader of City of Barbarians as it was the City Leader’s special skill.

It seemed like Lin Jie had to fight for one more city.

Lin Jie took a look at the map, smiled, and tore open the returning scroll back to the City of Light.

……

—”Your lineage has changed to Barbarian. Your Strength and Endurance buffs increase by 0.2 and 0.1, respectively, with a 10% increase in Attack Speed. Every 100 units in Attack will give you an extra 20 points increase in Critical Hit Damage. The effects of Warrior Skills are increased by 10%.”

—’The favorability of the City of Barbarians towards you has increased to Friendly.’

As Lin Jie reached the City of Light, he had completed the lineage transformation.

He turned the pain sense back on, and could still feel the pain of his limbs and bones. The process of changing one’s lineage was really a torment.

“Welcome, our most respectable Viscount.”

When Lin Jie entered the City of Light, a group of Paladins came up respectfully. The leader was the Protection Paladin, who had stopped him from leaving the city!

He said respectfully, “Commander Tyrese invited you to the Holy Church. In addition, your Wanted Order in the City of Light has been canceled. We are really sorry for the trouble we caused.”

Lin Jie gasped in admiration. It must be Clomaros who had thrown the body of King of Blood directly to the Holy Church. Otherwise, how could the Commander care about him?

It felt so great to have a backer.

‘This is a good chance! Since I’ll hand in the King of Blood’s corpse, I could fool Tyrese to send troops to fight against the Dark Shrine and crash the Dark Holy Water’s source!’ thought Lin Jie maliciously in his heart. Besides that, how many levels could he be promoted after killing the King of Blood? 3? Or 5?

In addition, hopefully, he could get some Accomplishment Points, and then exchange them for a few Skill Points.

On Lin Jie’s way to the Holy Church, the street was suddenly crowded.

It turned out that someone was setting up an arena. It was defended by the organizer, and the players were allowed to challenge after paying the registration fee. If they won, they would get the rewards. If they lost, they would get nothing back.

This kind of arena was usually concentrated in the slums of the City of Light, and not many players participated. But this time, it was more big-scaled.

Surprisingly, it was organized by three beauties. These three sisters seemed to be triplets, all Night Elves. They only wore sports bra-like Leather Armor, exposing their small waists. Matched with their light green hair and beautiful ears, they could easily arouse the most primitive desire in the human heart.

Among them, an Elf, who was playing with a scepter, said with a smile, “I heard that the City of Light is full of experts and powerful teams, like the Triumphant Midnight, Hunter’s Guild, and even the Brotherhood, which is said to be invincible. How come no one wants to challenge us? The winner would be rewarded with 1,000 gold coins.”

Under the arena, there were more than 30 players gnashing their teeth with righteous indignation. It seemed like they had all been defeated by the three sisters.

Lin Jie watched with interest. The two sisters hid their names, and it was impossible to guess who they were by looking at their faces. However, some players definitely could not take their provocative attitude, not to mention that the prize was tempting.

As expected, a middle-aged man with a pair of sharp eyes went up to the stage. Holding a longbow, he waved his hands and said, “There are very few such arrogant casual adventurers in the City of Light. I’ll do something nice and teach you a lesson. Here are 100 gold coins for the registration fee. Don’t waste my time, you can attack together.”

That was the Chairman of Hunter’s Guild, Ghost Eyes!
