Wen Yan silently observed the new title that had appeared. It was completely beyond his expectations. He was still wondering how he already had a title when he hadn't even killed the Glutton yet. Moreover, the Beast Nesis title obviously had a bug. He simply had the result first, and now that he had supplented it with a cause, there should be no problem. Unexpectedly, a single Glutton actually yielded two titles. It made sense, though. The Glutton falsely claid to be a Dragon Son, and this claim, over ti, had settled and taken root. That was actually quite normal.
"Dragonkin's Nesis (Dragonkin: refers to all non-True Dragons that contain Dragon Clan bloodlines and are non-human.)"
"Basic Trait: Vulnerable.
All Dragonkin possess one or more of the following: high defenses, high immunities, and high recovery abilities.
When wearing this title, your non-pure physical attacks can put the target into a vulnerable state.
The damage you deal to vulnerable targets is increased by 20% (X)."
"Wearing this title, you have 100% suppression, 100% true damage, and 100% Ignore Immunity against all Dragonkin."
"There is a 21% chance to trigger the stripping of Dragon Clan bloodline (Stripping progress is proportionate to the damage dealt. When combined with the complete Taotie Myth Core, stripping progress is unrelated to damage dealt.)"
Wen Yan examined the new title. Its effects were straightforward and brutal, all related to damage. He lowered his head to look at the oddly shaped bracelet on his wrist.
"Taotie Myth Core (67%)."
"Legend has it that the Glutton can devour everything, even itself. This Mythical Core has transford into a wondrous item that can swallow most visible things. Digestion requires ti, and it can evolve. By replenishing the key component, the Taotie Teeth, it can transform into its complete form."
Wen Yan looked at the bracelet and began to ponder a question. If this bracelet is called a wondrous item, could the sources of other such items also follow the sa path as the one by which I obtained this bracelet? He didn't dwell on these thoughts for long and began to wrap things up.
「After returning ho」
Wen Yan considered that the Glutton had died again. This ti, he had earned a new title, which ant the Beast Nesis title must have been gained previously. Now he had Dragonkin's Nesis. Although the process had so twists and turns with unexpected events, the outco should be the sa as before. He had taken the five Gluttons to the West River and beheaded them one by one on the Beheading Dragon Platform. It had been a good while since he returned ho, and the loop had not restarted.
「By the next morning」
Wen Yan was fairly certain that the ti loop was unlikely to be closely associated with the Gluttons. There were now mainly two possibilities. First, the loop was related to him, but the cause wasn't recent and was also unrelated to the Gluttons. Second, the loop had nothing to do with him; he was rely caught up in it and had only discovered it due to the title issue.
Since there was a loop, it couldn't have been the first ti. In the past, he must have been unaware, just like everyone else. Even if there had been slight clues, he hadn't paid them any attention. Once he beca aware of the issue, however, even minor, previously ignored clues beca sharply noticeable.
He closed his eyes in contemplation. If I were unaware of this, what would I do next? I would simply continue as I normally would. He needed to further ascertain whether this matter was related to him, or determine what exactly could cause the loop to occur.
「Next, everything went on as usual.」
With each action, Wen Yan pondered how he would proceed if he were unaware of the loop. He went to Southern Sea County again, reached the Cape of the Sea, and perford Soul Summoning. Then, he once again attracted sothing from the Deep Sea but remained cautious, not rushing out alone. After gathering information, he heard about Water Ghosts steering a sunken ship to attack yachts. He landed on the sunken ship, but this ti, things were different.
Wen Yan discovered that most of the Water Ghosts covered by his Yang Energy were stripped of their Water Ghost professional inheritance traits. Of the remaining portion, more than half were burned to death and evaporated by his Yang Energy. Only one Ghost triggered complete annihilation.
Watching these frenetic Ghosts, Wen Yan felt an imdiate certainty. I must have been here before. Definitely. Within the Water Ghost Nesis title, there were two traits with probabilities: one was complete annihilation, and the other was stripping Water Ghost professional inheritance traits. Both probabilities were the sa.
Even if these two effects didn't solely rely on their respective probabilities when triggered, and might also involve his own intentions, the targets' attributes, or other factors, the disparity shouldn't be so vast. With such a large group of Water Ghosts, more than half had their professional inheritance traits stripped, while only one was completely annihilated.
Wen Yan stared closely at the Ghost that had been completely annihilated for a long while. He had always been curious. If I burn a Water Ghost to death with my intense Yang Energy, it dissipates. Triggering this special effect also results in death. So, what's the difference? Now, he roughly understood.
I must have co here before, and a considerable number of Water Ghosts must have triggered complete annihilation. Once killed, it was over for them. Even if there was a loop, they wouldn't reappear.
Wen Yan watched the kneeling, fiercely zealous Water Ghosts. He was thoroughly convinced of his judgnt; otherwise, the ratio wouldn't likely be skewed to several tens to one. In his opinion, the Water Ghosts were bold enough to attack people. They had been tornted for so long that their values were completely different from humans. Obliterating all of them posed no issue.
