Facing an Ancient God for a Year

Chapter 350: Chapter 350 Unclean Ecstasy (12)_1

Li Weixuan’s stance undoubtedly had a decisive effect.

Although Lanaya was reluctant, she did not argue any further at the time.

Yuan Fang seemed unconcerned as well.

Li Weixuan had hardly any interaction with him before making this statement, indicating that their personal relationship was indeed quite good.

“Professor Lanaya, you will act together with Professor Fu Qian from now on.”

After finishing, Li Weixuan turned to look at Fu Qian, his face showing no emotion.

...

“Professor Fu, although I personally believe you are innocent, I still hope you can produce sufficient evidence to prove yourself.”

“We will also investigate fully on our side, and if by any chance it turns out that you are indeed involved, the Academy will not shelter anyone.”

“Of course.”

Fu Qian smiled and agreed amiably.

Li Weixuan’s move seemed somewhat partial, but it was a relatively appropriate way to handle the situation.

Not to mention that his own motive for murder was so blatantly fake, on the other hand, the Academy had just issued a hearing statement in the morning.

At this time, without much evidence, it would indeed be awkward to change their mind directly and hand him over to the Night Watchman.

The only risk with the current arrangement was that he might run away, and Lanaya would not be able to stop him.

But in truth, with the strength he had previously demonstrated, if he really wanted to escape with all his might, even if these people joined forces, they might not be able to detain him.

Therefore, rather than being pushed into desperation and taking a private action to prove his innocence, it was better to maintain a higher stance.

And Li Weixuan’s seemingly arbitrary initiative actually helped to share some of the pressure off of Yuan Fang.

Indeed a great buddy, an incredibly tacit understanding!

“No point in delaying, I’ll set off with Lanaya now.”

Fu Qian did not say much, but took his leave from the people in the room directly.

Such crude framing tactics always gave the impression of buying time.

The person who killed Jia Yi seemed to be striving to gain time.

Although it was unclear what he intended to do, acting swiftly was essential.

In the end, amidst Lanaya’s sighs and the attentive gaze of the crowd, the two left together.

“Tell me where we’re going?”

Upon exiting, Lanaya looked at Fu Qian with an irritated face.

“To find two people.”

“What people? Can’t you just stay put in the Academy?”

Lanaya frowned, clearly reluctant.

“I don’t have that much time to waste following you around.”

“Fine, shall I go ask them for advice on my own then?”

…

Lanaya fell silent at Fu Qian’s words.

“Where to?”

After glaring at him fiercely, Lanaya still did not dare to let him go on his own.

“Do you know the old gentleman from yesterday’s banquet?”

Fu Qian asked with a smile.

“I know, Qiao Yanchuan is quite a prominent figure locally, although he’s not a Transcendent.”

Lanaya’s look at Fu Qian became guarded in an instant.

“Don’t cause trouble, even though there was some conflict yesterday, you’ve already scared him good. You’re not thinking of going to demand an explanation, are you?”

“As I just said, how could I possibly be that petty.”

Fu Qian waved his hand.

“I have genuine matters to discuss with Old Master Qiao. Since you know him, that’s perfect. Lead the way, please.”

…

It did not take much time for Fu Qian and Lanaya to arrive at their destination.

On the way there, Lanaya informed him that the old gentleman, Qiao Yanchuan, was nearly seventy years old and was quite an influential figure among the local common folk; this was also why he could afford to hire Transcendent bodyguards.

The only regret was that, so far, not one member of the family was a Transcendent, hence they could not gain access to the upper echelons of society.

At that moment, the Qiao Family mansion was heavily guarded with a security level that was most likely maxed out.

It was evident that Jia Yi’s death had put the old gentleman on high alert.

Lide didn’t expect the players to actually come.

1095 days, exactly three years in-game time.

“Glory” particularly emphasized in its promotion that the time ratio between the game and reality was 1:3, with one day in reality equating to three days in-game.

Lide had originally thought the game company was merely exaggerating. After a year in reality and the game being live, now seeing over a thousand days on the game panel, he didn’t imagine it would be true.

So, did I cross over to the game three years early?

For a moment, Lide felt a bit excited.

At the start, I became the Ancestor of the Bloodline, with hundreds of underlings, and I’m also a level 10 Advanced Mage. Isn’t this a bit too much?

But it’s fine, the more excessive, the better. I like it.

After his excitement subsided, Lide turned his attention to the attribute panel.

The skills listed there immediately got his heart racing.

He had three main categories of skills.

First, there were the Talent Specializations, three skills in total.

Talent Specialization: Bloodline Ancestor (Unique), Bloodline Shackles (Limited), Magic Affinity (Extreme)

Bloodline Ancestor: You are the Ancestor of the Bloodline, possessing a powerful lineage that can resist sunlight. You can develop one Bloodline each month, all Bloodlines and their descendants will maintain absolute loyalty to you. Each Bloodline can provide you with 1 character experience point per month.

After reading the skill descriptions, Lide felt a bit excited. Absolute loyalty, this attribute was simply domineering.

His worry was completely put to rest; even if he acted out of character, this “absolute loyalty” attribute meant it wouldn’t matter.

Of course, whether this loyalty was the unconditional kind he imagined or one where they could still think independently but sacrifice without hesitation, he needed to verify.

Furthermore, the attribute of gaining 1 character experience point per Bloodline each month was highly practical.

The difficulty of gaining character experience in “Glory” was extremely high, as mentioned on the official website.

Although he was now only level 10, an Advanced Mage, in a city with millions like Green City, he could walk horizontally.

Bloodline Shackles (Limited): As the Bloodline Ancestor, you have absolute control over Bloodlines. You can manipulate them through Bloodline Shackles, issuing commands ingrained in their blood.

Controlling Bloodlines through bloodline manipulation, the description gave Lide an even stronger domineering feeling.

The control ability of the Bloodline Ancestor over the Bloodline was simply invincible.

Especially, the ability to issue commands dissolved into the blood made Lide ponder greatly.

He keenly felt that this skill would definitely be highly useful in the future.

The last Talent Specialization.

Magic Affinity (Extreme): Your affinity for magic has reached its limit, allowing you to manipulate magic at will.

Very straightforward and powerful but also very effective.

It clearly told Lide that he was destined to be a mage and shouldn’t think about other things.

According to the “Glory” official website, each person could only choose two Talent Specializations when selecting a profession.

But Lide now had not just an extra one but three, and each was incredibly powerful.

The second skill category was Racial Skills.

Racial Skills differed from Talent Specializations in that they were related to race, while Talent Specializations were more about personal talent.

The Bloodline’s Racial Skills were three highly practical skills.

Bat Transformation: You can transform into 100 small bats, each containing 5% of your strength. As long as one bat remains, you can be reborn. You can also morph bat wings for flight, at 50% of the small bats’ speed.

Blood Absorption Recovery: Bloodlines can recover physical strength, magica power, and spirit through blood absorption.

Super Strong Physique (passive): The Bloodline Ancestor has a powerful physique.

Powerful, Lide finally directly felt just how strong the body of the Bloodline Ancestor he occupied was.

Super strong physique, Magic Affinity, this was simply divine for dual cultivation of magic and martial arts.

In terms of potential, even the hidden professions briefly mentioned on the “Glory” official website couldn’t compare.

The third skill category was Mage Skills.

Mage Skills ranged from low to high in First Circle Magic, Second Circle Magic, Three Circle Magic, Four Circle Magic, Five Circle Magic, Forbidden Curse, Divine Arts.

Lide, now a level 10 Advanced Mage, mastered around ten First and Second Circle Spells, three Three Circle Spells, and could only learn Four Circle Spells at level 15 as a Great Mage.

As for Five Circle Spells, only level 20 and above Extraordinary Mage were eligible, so Forbidden Curses and Divine Arts were out of reach for the current Lide.

Yet for some reason, Lide saw no warrior skills.

In “Glory,” each person could have two professions, but the secondary profession’s level could only be half of the primary profession’s and would face double the experience penalty.

Lide’s attribute panel showed a level 5 warrior profession, but only mage skills.

After recalling briefly, Lide couldn’t help but laugh.

The Bloodline Ancestor was an unequivocal magic enthusiast, believing magic to be the most powerful and dismissive of the warrior profession.

The secondary profession was set as a warrior because of the Super Strong Physique from the race talent, aiming to maximize this potential.

With a sigh in his heart, Lide thought the Bloodline was truly a blessed race, except for the weakness to sunlight, it was overwhelmingly powerful.

But now, with the bug-like talent specialization of the Bloodline Ancestor, the weakness to sunlight was gone too, making it overwhelmingly strong.

Knock knock knock~

A knock on the door interrupted Lide’s thoughts.

“Lord Lide, are you inside?”

A voice as charming as a nightingale’s came through the wooden study door into the room.

The girl outside spoke a different language, entirely unlike Chinese, but Lide could completely understand.

He instinctively answered.

“I am.”

As the words left his mouth, Lide was a bit surprised. This wasn’t Chinese, but he spoke it fluently.

“It must be from inheriting the original body’s memories.”

Breathing a sigh of relief, he thought that although he had inherited the Bloodline Ancestor’s memories, many everyday habits weren’t easy to change.

Now, having inherited not just attributes but also the language, there was no problem.

Tidying up the slightly disordered blue mage robe on his body, his two tusks had already turned into regular teeth, though his face was still somewhat pale, his spirit had improved greatly.

Straightening his chest slightly, he opened the door.

Creak~

The door opened, and a young girl in a blue mage robe appeared before Lide.

The girl had a slender and graceful figure, with a height of 1.7 meters exuding an outstanding aura.

Her big watery eyes were like a goddess raising a torch, with light flickering inside.

Her petite and delicate features on a fair and tender face, with a thick smile.

Her slightly wavy golden hair cascaded over her back like waves.

Such a delicate girl.

Lide’s eyes brightened.

“Lord Lide, lunch is prepared for you, would you like to dine in the study or the dining room?”

With a sweet smile, Wina said in the softest voice.

As the Tower Master of this Magic Tower, an elite member of the Green City Magic Association, Lide’s presence was like the sky in this Magic Tower, holding absolute power and unquestionable authority.

Looking at Old Master Qiao, evidently taking advantage of the situation, Fu Qian sighed.

“Repeat what you just said, I’ll allow you to organize your thoughts again.”

“…I truly can’t help—what do you want?”

Qiao Yanchuan’s gaze suddenly became wary, but he still answered out of habit.

“Go back a bit further.”

“Jia Yi’s death…”

“Yes, that’s the line.”
