Situations like Huang Yi’s and Zhao Li’s were playing out all over the world. To put it in a word, the world was in chaos. All sorts of supernatural incidents were breaking out. Even though people had only inherited a single ga aspect, and only 5% of their abilities at that, the world was already falling into disarray.
There were simply too many different kinds of gas, a vast number of which had been chosen at random by people the night before. Today, when it was ti to choose the first aspect to inherit, the window was so short that many people ended up with a random selection as well. Due to the sheer numbers and the elent of chance, all sorts of strange and bizarre abilities and items began to appear.
Among the players, many, while not spending big on Krypton Gold, would still buy a first-purchase bonus or a monthly pass. As a result, in Xia Country alone, tens of millions of players inherited all kinds of ga abilities this very night.
A warning voice had sounded a day in advance, giving the governing bodies of every nation so ti to prepare. The military and police officers of Xia Country had received their orders and were ready. Many military units were even mobilized overnight. However, the extent of the chaos still far exceeded anyone’s expectations.
When one holds a sharp weapon, killing intent is born.
When a person has no power, no wealth, and no foundation to stand on, they tend to endure certain hardships. Even if they harbor anger and bury their hatred deep inside, life must go on, so they swallow their pride and tolerate it. But after suddenly inheriting imnse power from a ga, many of them stopped tolerating it.
The very instant the ga abilities were inherited, acts of revenge and slaughter erupted. The mont people received their powers, all kinds of conflict and bloodshed began. Soone inherited the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms and, with a single strike, obliterated the black sedan that was always stealing his parking spot—the one he had to call and ask to be moved every single ti he ca ho. Soone inherited the Stealing Skill and promptly emptied out a jewelry store with nimble fingers. Soone inherited the Invisibility Technique and, with a lecherous chuckle, slipped into the won’s bathhouse. Soone else inherited pets from a Pokémon-style ga, summoning countless Jenny Turtles.

"Holy shit!"
"It’s real!"
"Give three thousand enforcers—no, give three thousand Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, and I could take back..."
In the central plaza of a certain city, a shirtless man was doing his public square dance routine. Suddenly, thousands of muscular, shirtless n wearing nothing but white shorts appeared in a great WHOOSH, their expressions grim as they packed the plaza.
"Holy shit, *Binhui Territory*! My one hundred thousand Tiger and Leopard Cavalry from the ga... I really inherited them? And it gave 5,000?" listening to the voice in his ear and staring at the translucent panel that only he could see, the unemployed youth, Wang Dapang, cried out in shock.
The mont he’d tapped the Summoning button on his panel, 5,000 shirtless, brawny n had appeared. Wang Dapang could feel the connection between himself and the 5,000 n. These were his n! An army, identical to real people, that would obey his every command! Best of all, these n didn’t need to eat or drink. They required no investnt or care whatsoever.
I had a hundred thousand Tiger and Leopard Cavalry in the ga, so 5% is only 5,000! But I haven’t inherited the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry’s equipnt, weapons, mounts, skills, or legion Auras yet!
Quickly checking the information on his panel, Wang Dapang figured out why the 5,000 mbers of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry were shirtless. It was because he had only inherited the first category: Accessories. Other categories, such as skills, Heroes, equipnt, and warhorses, had yet to be inherited.
My Zhao Yun! My Zhuge Liang! My Guan Yu!
After quietly ordering the 5,000 Tiger and Leopard Cavalry to assemble, Wang Dapang began to imagine what it would be like when the NPC Heroes from his ga finally arrived. In the ga he’d inherited from, a single Military General Hero could send hundreds or even thousands of Soldiers flying with one swing of their weapon. If his obedient Soldiers were this strong, he couldn’t wait to see the even more powerful Heroes!
"Ah!"
"Ahh!! Perverts!!"
"Whoa!! Your muscles are so hot!"
"Call the police! Soone, call the police!!"
"It’s madness! Everyone’s gone mad!!!"
While Wang Dapang was busy inspecting his new assets, the crowd in the plaza—old n, grannies, and young people alike—erupted into chaos. So shrieked at the sudden appearance of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, others stared in delighted surprise at their own glowing hands, and still others gaped as strange items materialized in their grasp. The older folks in the crowd, the ones who didn’t play gas, reacted to the scene by frantically calling the police.
"We welco the return of our Lord!!"
Under the stunned gazes of the crowd, the 5,000 shirtless, burly n suddenly dropped to one knee before Wang Dapang.
"Aaaah!!!"
"Monsters!!!"
"Murder!!"
"Help!!!"
In the few dozen seconds after midnight, all sorts of anomalies erupted. Wang Dapang was just daydreaming about using his 5,000 no-maintenance Tiger and Leopard Cavalry to go rough up so online loan sharks, or maybe just have them all get jobs to support him so he could live a life of leisure, when soone in the plaza suddenly collapsed into a heap of flesh. The red mass began to roil and expand, instantly absorbing anyone nearby who couldn’t escape in ti.
Soon, a five- or six-ter-tall humanoid creature composed entirely of flesh and blood appeared in the plaza.
"I will sever your limbs! I will pierce your soul!" a hoarse, grating voice echoed from within the humanoid creature, now a mishmash of countless bodies. A fiery-red, flesh-like greatsword began to coalesce from the creature’s body.

「Divine Capital」
Inside a three-story restaurant, he watched as President Chen, now transford into a Great Demon Fiend, sent a solid wood dining table flying with one swipe and charged straight at him.
Huang Yi’s gaze hardened, and he shouted, "Divine Thunder Tower!"
Overco with anxiety, Huang Yi quickly selected one of the 21 Defense Towers he had inherited—the one he felt would inflict the most damage on a Demon Fiend. It was the only Tenth Tier Defense Tower he had inherited: the Divine Thunderbolt! Facing the charging Great Demon Fiend, the only thing Huang Yi could do was respond with the ga abilities he had also inherited.
KRUMP!
As Huang Yi spoke, a colossal column, over a ter thick and more than ten ters tall, suddenly appeared before his eyes. It radiated a divine aura, grand and imposing like an imperial pillar.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
The instant the massive Divine Defense Tower was summoned, it smashed right through the roof of the three-story building. Like a mythical pillar pinning the seas, the Defense Tower pierced straight through the entire building. The three-story restaurant was instantly torn to pieces!
CRACKLE!
The mont the towering Defense Tower landed, it detected the malevolent Great Demon Fiend. The Great Demon Fiend was already high in the air, blood dripping from its mouth. A bolt of lightning materialized out of thin air and struck automatically.
KRA-KOW!
The lightning appeared and struck the Demon Fiend in the sa instant.
FWOOSH!
After the flash, the fearso Great Demon Fiend was turned into a cloud of gray dust in the blink of an eye, scattering to the winds. It left not a single trace behind.
"Ah! Ah! Ah!"
From the appearance of the giant Divine Thunder Tower to the Great Demon Fiend’s demise, less than a second had passed. They stared at the massive column that had punched through the floors. Then they looked at where the Great Demon Fiend had been, now nothing but ash. The few surviving sleazy, middle-aged n pissed their pants, utterly dumbfounded.
The Great Demon Fiend had been terrifying, flattening a person into a at patty with a single swipe. But the Defense Tower Huang Yi had summoned was even more terrifying. It had instantly killed the Great Demon Fiend in a single strike. The surviving n thought back to how they had been trying to control Huang Yi just monts before. The color drained from their faces, and they scrambled away, terrified out of their wits.
Soon, figures began to erge from the dust and chaos of the restaurant that had been turned upside down by the Defense Tower. Restaurant staff and guests, all covered in dust and gri, stared in terror at the Divine Thunder Tower.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Before anyone could even ask what was happening, violent explosions echoed from not far away.
The age of chaos is here!
He saw a man in black erge from a collapsed building in the distance, carrying a massive Totem Pole. The man slamd the pole into the ground, instantly carving a huge trench in the earth. A thought surfaced in Huang Yi’s mind.
WEE-WOO. WEE-WOO. WEE-WOO.
Two seconds later, piercing sirens blared. In the distant sky, nurous helicopters with sweeping searchlights appeared.
"CITY-WIDE CURFEW!"
"CITY-WIDE CURFEW!"
"ALL CITIZENS...."
Over the deafening wail of the air-raid sirens, an even louder voice bood out.
"HANDS UP!"
"HANDS UP!"
"HANDS UP!"
While Huang Yi was still processing everything, a fleet of police cruisers, sirens blaring, had already surrounded the restaurant. The Defense Tower he had summoned was just too conspicuous. Even though the flood of ergency calls after midnight had stretched police forces thin, to the point that even soldiers from the local garrisons were not enough to maintain order, a large contingent of officers still arrived at Huang Yi’s location. His massive Defense Tower was too eye-catching! Too out of the ordinary!
Ga ability inheritance! A Defense Tower is this strong?! Instantly killed a Great Demon Fiend in one shot? He ran his hand over the massive Defense Tower. To think that the "Divine Defense Tower," with no Gemstones, no Auras, and no Bonds, could instantly kill a Great Demon Fiend in one shot... An image of a person suddenly surfaced in Huang Yi’s mind. He thought of Skyrocketing, the one who had secretly told him to inherit from *Tower Defense of Ten Thousand Realms*. He thought of how Skyrocketing’s Combat Power was thousands of tis greater than his own.
"ID!"
"State your ID number!"
While Huang Yi was still reeling, the approaching officers shouted at him. Although many of them had also inherited ga abilities, when they saw the enormous column next to Huang Yi, with massive bolts of lightning crackling around its spherical top, they could only shout from a safe distance.
A few minutes later, soone had used his ID number to contact him directly.
"Hello, Mr. Huang Yi! I’m the section chief of the Third Action Division of the Inherited Ga Ability Managent Administration—or ’Tourism Managent Office,’ for short."
Holding his unconscious sister-in-law in his arms, Huang Yi was stunned.
Tourism Managent Office? An official governnt agency specifically for managing inheritors of ga abilities? And they’re inviting to join?
