Chapter 53: Chapter 53: Master of Breaking the Game

Just like last time, after leaving the dungeon, Wu Chang was transported to a white room.

The television wall in front of the room played all his performances in the dungeon.

“Player ID 4444444, successfully completed the ’Year Year Peace’ dungeon. Settlement based on player performance in the dungeon begins.”

“Player has completed Main Quest One: Go to Huai Valley Village and participate in the Year Removal Festival.”

“Player has completed Main Quest Two: Protect Huai Valley Village and complete the Year Removal Ceremony.”

“Player discovered the secret of the Black Mountain Bandits and saw through the disguise of Huai Valley Village and Chen Family Village.”

“Player discovered the true form of the evil spirit, helped resolve its obsession, and completed its revenge.”

“Player completed a hidden side quest: Find the source of Demon Qi in Huai Valley Village.”

“Player discovered the existence of the Demon Transformation Evil Technique and exorcised the grievances of players turned into malevolent spirits in Ghost Cry Forest.”

“Player discovered and stopped Chi Yuan’s conspiracy.”

“Dungeon completion: 100%!”

“Title Perfectionism activated, dungeon completion +5%, final dungeon completion: 100%!”

“Dungeon Rating: Perfect!”

“Experience and Rotten Silver Coins settlement correction: 300%!”

“Player gains experience: 3600.”

“Player gains Rotten Silver Coins: 6000.”

“Player completed a hidden side quest, rewarded with: Soul Cleansing Banner.”

The settlement process is similar to that at Moonlight Sanatorium.

It is worth mentioning that his basic dungeon completion was 100%, and even after Perfectionism activated, it remained 100%.

This indicates that 100% is merely the settlement cap, not his own limit.

With his exploration of the plot, he likely already exceeded the perfect standards of ’Year Year Peace’.

After a brief pause, the settlement continued.

“Player dungeon rating reached S-level, allowing the selection of an item from the current dungeon world as a special drop reward. The item must be one for which the player has already obtained usage rights, please make your selection.”

Wu Chang glanced at the item list and made a choice.

“Player has selected the C-Level item Four-sided Age Fire Lamp. After leaving the dungeon plane, the skills of the Four-sided Age Fire Lamp will change. Do you want to maintain this choice?”

“Confirm.”

“Player acquired item, Four-sided Age Fire Lamp.”

“Age Fire Skill changed.”

“Item Skill: Age Fire.”

“Skill Description: When the wick is lit, it can ignite the Age Fire that guards the human world. While the Age Fire burns, it can slow the user’s Life loss.”

Although he was prepared for the disappearance of the Four-sided Age Fire Lamp’s death immunity ability, he still felt a bit regretful upon actually seeing it.

However, on second thought, if the Four-sided Age Fire Lamp could still retain its death immunity ability after leaving the dungeon plane’s special rules, its level would be at least A (Upgradeable).

“Player dungeon rating reached Perfect Level, allowing the selection of a rare item as a reward from the current dungeon plane.”

This time, unlike at Moonlight Sanatorium, perhaps due to the dungeon level being a level lower, it wasn’t possible to obtain reincarnation items, and what appeared before him were three cultivation techniques.

“Thunder Skill Fragment”.

“Artifact Refining Fragment”.

“Demon Transformation Fragment”.

After a short thought, he chose “Thunder Skill Fragment”.

Though Artifact Refining is powerful, turning living people into artifacts was not his style.

While he doesn’t shy away from killing, he has no interest in using living people as materials; such actions are too grim and would surely attract divine punishment eventually.

As for the Demon Transformation Fragment, if it were a player who exchanged for orc bloodline in the public area, they would certainly choose it.

But possessing the Shadow-Facing Face, he is already set for Immortal Transformation in the future; Demon Transformation is merely a minor technique.

Choosing the Thunder Skill Fragment not only compensates for his lack of attack methods but also occupies a significant portion of the Cultivation background in the plane, allowing for smoother future conversion to more powerful Thunder techniques.

“Item Name: Thunder Skill Fragment.”

“Item Effect: Player’s attributes must reach Energy: 10; Inspiration: 20; Will: 25 to activate the item and learn the Thunder Skill Fragment.”

Compared to the Secret Magic Knight Order’s reincarnation requirements, the threshold for the Thunder Skill Fragment is much lower.

“Cultivation Technique: Thunder Skill Fragment.”

“Cultivation Level: F”

“The Thunder Skill Fragment can be upgraded by paying Rotten Silver Coins or absorbing Thunder Attribute Spiritual Objects, with a maximum upgrade to B-Level.”

“Upgrading the cultivation technique to E-Level requires 1000 Rotten Silver Coins.”

After the dungeon settlement, he happened to level up twice, adding 10 free Attribute Points to Energy, and upon clicking learn, he saw the Thunder Skill Fragment included four skills.

“Body Technique: Electric Light and Thunder Shadow.”

“Magical Technique: Radiant Spell.”

“Thunder Technique: Palm Thunder.”

“Thunder Technique: Summoning a Thousand Thunders (Not Activated), activated after reaching C-Level in the cultivation technique.”

The consumption of Rotten Silver Coins for upgrading the cultivation technique is quite high, but the advantage is that as the cultivation technique levels up, all four subordinate skills will also upgrade simultaneously, making it acceptable.

Following the Perfect Evaluation Reward came the highlight of this settlement.

“Player achieved a Perfect clearance in an Out-of-Control Dungeon (Dungeon Pollution Value ＞ 85) that is greater than or equal to the Character Level, receiving a random Title Box.”

“Player will only draw a title that meets the prerequisites.”

Looking at the Title Box roulette in front of him, Wu Chang felt a hint of regret. If he could use the Goddess of Fortune’s dice in the Settlement Space, wouldn’t he get anything he wanted?

He closed his eyes and slapped the draw button fiercely.

The roulette spun rapidly, gradually slowing down after ten circles.

A treasure chest fell in front of Wu Chang, with blinding light bursting forth.

Wow! Another golden legend!

He looked up and found a colorful title appeared above his head.

“Title: Master of Breaking the Game”

“Title Requirement: Every True Dungeon encountered by the player achieved a Perfect Breakthrough.”

“Title Description: To deal with polluted dungeons, the Master of Breaking the Game enhanced his adaptability, absorbing energy from the pollution to strengthen himself.”

“Title Effect: Wearing this title, attributes other than Inspiration and Will in the True Dungeon will rise as the dungeon’s Pollution Level increases, with a boost of (Dungeon Pollution Value / 2)%.”

“Note: The colorful title can stack with other titles.”

As Wu Chang was settling ’Year Year Peace’, a portal of light appeared outside Huai Valley Village.

A young man dressed as a scholar stepped out, exuding an impressive aura and graceful demeanor, clearly a wealthy nobleman.

He waved a fan, walking with dignified steps, slowly heading into the valley.

After a few steps, he realized something was wrong. How come after a year of absence, the villagers of Huai Valley Village became so indifferent, not even coming out to greet their great benefactor upon his visit?

Frowning, he entered the valley, staring at the corpses scattered all over and the desolate scene in Huai Valley Village, looking completely bewildered.

No, what’s going on?

My Huai Valley Village, the setup I painstakingly crafted for the Lord, who ruined it?!

Those damned Black Mountain Bandits, I told them so many times not to conduct the Year Removal Festival prematurely, yet they can’t understand human language!

Disregarding his image, he lifted his robes and hurried towards Hollow Mountain.

Moments later, the sound of a groundhog’s roar echoed within Hollow Mountain.

“Ah!”

“Where is my enormous Erosion Core!”

The scholar walked out of Hollow Mountain with a livid face, clenching his back teeth as he scanned the surroundings, confirming that the perpetrators had already fled. Reluctantly admitting defeat, he formed a spell with his hands, summoning something.

After trying three times with no result, the scholar completely broke down.

“Damn thief! Return my lantern!”

They had carefully chosen a dungeon located in the overlap zone of several major forces, investing heavily to mask the dungeon’s Pollution Value, making it undetected by the major forces.

After painstakingly waiting for a long time, nurturing it to bear fruit.

Just when the fruits were about to ripen, someone grabbed them first. Who could tolerate that?!

They not only picked the fruits but also uprooted his tree and stole his farming tools to boot.

Growing more furious as he thought about it, he took out a golden toad tea pet from his pocket, placing it on his palm. With his index finger, he tapped the tea pet’s head, bringing it to life.

The golden toad took a deep breath, as if it wanted to draw in all the air in Huai Valley Village, and only stopped half a minute later.

It closed its mouth, its two bulging eyes swiveling rapidly until they stopped, then closed its eyes and fell asleep again, turning back into the tea pet.

The scholar’s face twisted with wrath as he collected the tea pet, having recorded the aura of the player who cleared the dungeon.

That damn thief better not let him catch him in a dungeon, or he’ll make sure they pay the price!

The Peaceful Sect has always repaid its grudges, no matter who the opponent is!

Just wait!
