I Forged the Myth of the Ancient Overlords
Chapter 482 - 482 481. Stage Two Task Begins_1

Chapter 482: 481. Stage Two Task Begins_1 Chapter 482: 481. Stage Two Task Begins_1 When Lu Ban left Feng Yu’s body, he felt a sense of loss and emptiness.

He guessed that perhaps a baby feels something similar when it is born from its mother’s womb.

Lu Ban couldn’t remember, but he thought it might be possible.

It was a feeling of having lost safety, and from then on, he would have to face the world alone in its solitude and silence.

Without much time for sentiment, Lu Ban heard Feng Yu speak.

“You should get up now.”

“Oh.”

Lu Ban lifted his head from Feng Yu’s knees and felt his sense of security diminish further.

Something nudged the water glass on the table, moving it towards the edge.

Naturally, Lu Ban put it back in the center of the table and took out [Mysterious Amusement Park] to check.

The amusement park seemed to have shrunk a bit.

To be precise, it was not the range but the size that had shrunk again.

That was because there was something like a water park added within the amusement park.

There were drifting and water roller coasters in the water park, thrilling and exciting.

Lu Ban looked closely and saw in the water some Little Fish Men playing ferocious mermen, lifelike and convincing.

The [Mysterious Amusement Park] had undoubtedly evolved.

“Is this what a [Sublimation]-level item looks like?”

Lu Ban found it incredible.

Originally, he thought grades like [Pollution], [Corrosion], and [Mutation] merely corresponded to the level of pollution contained within the items.

But now it seemed, it wasn’t just a grading but also a description.

Items of [Pollution] quality bring pollution to people.

Items of [Corrosion] quality gradually erode the sanity of living beings.

[Mutation] quality leads users to continually mutate.

And [Sublimation] appears to mean the ability to continuously perfect oneself, to keep growing.

This was also reflected when Lu Ban placed the [Mysterious Amusement Park] on the Silent Department Store, and he noticed the price had changed.

The [Mysterious Amusement Park], originally valued at over five million, now had a suggested retail price that had increased to over eight million.

For 8,888,888 Silence Points, you could take it home, a purchase that wouldn’t be regretted or deceived.

The current [Mysterious Amusement Park] could not only disguise itself and use cognitive obstacles to attract others but also had a variety of amusement facilities. Moreover, it had Time Worms that could steal visitors’ time, allowing them to forever enjoy happiness in the park, truly a blessing for the entertainment industry.

Sometimes, Lu Ban actually fretted over one thing.

Although classic movies don’t fade with time, and many films are better savored over time, allowing for repeated viewing and enjoyment,

for the vast majority of movies, the most beautiful part is still the first encounter, filled with the unknown and anticipation, watching the characters dance unpredictably on the stage of fate, which is the joy of exploration.

Therefore, Lu Ban always thought that if he could somehow make himself as if he had never seen these classic works and then have his memories returned after watching, the happiness from the first time and the happiness from repeated savoring could overlap, surely bringing even more happiness.

Unfortunately, it wasn’t possible.

But perhaps the Time Worm could accomplish this.

Every time the audience finished watching a movie, it could steal that segment of time, letting the audience enter the cinema again.

In this way, those touches, sorrows, and shocks could be experienced over and over again.

Simply perfect.

It’s just that, for now, Lu Ban didn’t know how to make the Time Worm spit out this time, so at most, he could have the audience sit in the cinema and watch repeatedly, never reaching the true end of the movie.

Even in the Silent Lands, the [Mysterious Amusement Park] could serve as a defensive tool for Lu Ban. When encountering formidable foes, he could simply release the amusement park, inviting them to enter and play, effectively luring them into a trap.

At that moment, Lu Ban also pondered whether, if he collected strange objects from this world and combined them with those from foreign domains, he could create similar mutated items.

He decided to give it a try when the opportunity arose.

After putting away the [Mysterious Amusement Park], Lu Ban glanced at his career development task.

[Collecting Fear and Screams: 10000/10000]

[Congratulations on completing your career development task]

[The settlement process will now begin]

[Task Exploration Degree: 150%]

[Task Completion Status: Indescribable]

[You have created new legends in the Foreign Domain, and your name echoes within their dreams. But it is not enough. The road ahead is endless. Continue to strive, let your story become the history of the Foreign Domain, and be eternally inscribed at the dawn of time.]

[You have earned Silence Points: 50000 points]

[Settlement completed]

[Please complete the task to receive your reward]

“Fifty thousand points, not too bad,” Lu Ban muttered.

Some might wonder, with Lu Ban so casually selling items worth hundreds of thousands and owning merchandise valued in the millions, would he still value an income of fifty thousand points?

Of course, he would.

It’s like how a top student who could easily achieve perfect scores on every exam still takes those small quizzes before each class seriously.

The truth is, if such quizzes are looked down upon, then one could no longer be called a top student. It’s precisely because of serious consideration for each test that progress is made.

Lu Ban was the same. If he neglected these task rewards because he already had many Silence Points, and treated them carelessly, then one day Lu Ban would inevitably face disaster.

The Chosen by Gods he encountered in the Foreign Domain had also reached nearly the second phase, having undergone many tasks in the Foreign Domain to get to where they were. Lu Ban deeply understood the effort they had put in.

Therefore, he always killed these Chosen by Gods with respect, hoping their souls could find peace.

For example, that Little Fish Man, Lu Ban thought, if he could take his remains to be appraised at the Silent Department Store and sell them, then ultimately, his remains would gain value somewhere in the Foreign Domain, which would be slightly more fortunate than being eaten by Feng Yu.

“Dinner’s ready,” Feng Yu called out, bringing over a few quick dishes that could be prepared in just a few minutes.

Lu Ban indeed hadn’t had a proper meal in several days. The fish from the Deep Sea didn’t taste good, so he hadn’t eaten much.

As he ate, Lu Ban continued to ponder how he might market Merman products throughout the Foreign Domain.

Just after he finished eating and set down his bowl, the three dishes left in front of him began to warp, with the cold, indifferent words of the Silent Lands floating up on each dish, forming system instructions.

[The Second Stage Task Begins]

After seeing this line fade away, Lu Ban first looked at the first dish, with the words emerging on the stir-fried pork with green peppers.

Soul Summoning

[In some places, soul summoning isn’t associated with strangeness but rather with a kind of care.]

[Legend has it that when children are startled, elders perform a soul summoning ritual to call back their scattered souls.]

[Since the ritual is somber and eerie, most people are terrified by the mere idea of soul summoning.]

[However, the question arises: are the souls that are called back truly their own?]

[“After that, he was like a different person, not childlike but… like an old man?”]
