Chapter 271: Chapter 224: The Military’s Little Trick, Lord Zi is Exposed!

As long as vengeance is swift, Lord Zi is not one to hold grudges!

So, in the following period, Lord Zi rarely caused trouble; instead, he settled into a routine of eating, sleeping, and attending classes.

Of course, in this routine, there were definitely a few minor episodes to spice things up.

Such as doing some loving exercises with No. 2 to ensure progress in activating his Bloodline Power.

Such as accompanying the Fan Family Four Sisters on alchemy experiments, and casually researching how to integrate into their mental network in the lab.

Such as giving Sikong You a smooth ride, after all, one couldn’t let this girl’s outstanding talent go to waste, right?

Such as riding Daris every day in the Divine Dragon Secret Realm, strolling around to see the picturesque scenery and feel the depths of the canyons, with the chance to ride and adventure at night, using the sky as a blanket and the ground as a bed.

Such a salted fish life truly made Lord Zi forget the cares of home; just when he was contemplating whether to continue living this way, ten days passed in the blink of an eye.

Imperial Capital, North City District, Lord Zi’s villa.

Liu Guozhong stood straight as a pole, like a door god at the entrance of the villa, flanked by a small squad of 12 soldiers; each with a stern face and vigilant eyes that surveyed the surroundings.

Zi Liyuan, who had received the message, was slowly making his way to his villa, even with a trace of displeasure on his face for being disturbed.

These ten days of campus life had been a rare time of tranquility, and he also came to understand the foundations of Dragon Academy.

Previously, he had been solely focused on enhancing his own strength and had never attended a class at the academy.

It was only after attending classes peacefully for ten days that he realized Dragon Academy didn’t just teach students how to fight, but more importantly, how to truly master their own power!

All beings in the universe can enhance their strength to Fourth Order Level 100 under the rules of the game.

But for the Sea of Realms, Fourth Order Level 100 is just a threshold. Before reaching Level 100, it’s all about enhancing the foundation and welfare of beings under the game rules!

With human life being weak, they could continuously break through themselves by borrowing the power of game rules, becoming Fourth Order beings, thus being recognized by the Sea of Realms and given the chance to climb even higher levels.

But to break through to higher levels, there’s a prerequisite condition: one must fully control their own power, both physical strength and inner Spiritual Power!

Normally, enhancing with the help of game rules, rising levels, learning new skills, and improving basic attributes provide the foundation for using these powers but don’t grant an understanding of the essence of power.

On Earth, there’s no problem; you can normally use the powers granted by the game rules.

But it’s different once you enter the Sea of Realms. First of all, your skill bar will be sealed, and all skills will become invalid.

To restore the use of these skills, you must understand the essence of each skill, then use your own Spirit and Spiritual Power to reconstruct the structural origin model of these skills.

Only after completely mastering their operating rules can you reuse these skills, which by this point, can be called personal techniques under your control, rather than game skills!

The knowledge taught by Dragon Academy, of course, goes beyond that, with much of it pertaining to the Sea of Realms.

For example, the knowledge of extraterrestrial races detected by humans in the Sea of Realms, including detailed introductions and explanations of the top ten thousand races in the rankings.

When Lord Zi first saw this information, he was completely stunned; this was more terrifying than the college entrance exams every three years and mock tests every five years on Earth in his previous life.

He may have been a top student and quick learner, but facing such vast knowledge gave him a headache.

However, the thought of the infinite Sea of Realms with countless alien races warring, and Dragon Academy only requiring students to have a detailed understanding of the top ten thousand races, put things into perspective for him.

Lord Zi, who was deeply immersed (numb) in the ocean of knowledge and couldn’t extricate himself, naturally wasn’t in the best of moods when someone abruptly interrupted him.

So, seeing Liu Guozhong, he kept a cold face and walked straight in through the gate without a greeting.

But as an iron-blooded soldier, Liu Guozhong didn’t mind; as long as he could complete the mission given by his superiors, the attitude of Zi Liyuan was for General Huang to worry about.

Thus, Liu Guozhong followed right in, while the 12 guards very responsibly took up key positions outside the villa.

In the villa’s first-floor living room, Zi Liyuan sat down on the sofa with an expressionless face, looking at Liu Guozhong seated opposite him, but he didn’t speak.

“Comrade Zi Liyuan, the ten-day deadline has arrived. Please hand over the contents of the five hundred replica origin treasure boxes.”

Liu Guozhong’s face was serious, all business.

“You make it sound like I can default on the debt. Let’s proceed with the trade.”

Requesting a trade, he opened the trade interface. The first items he placed were 50 [Hearts of the Lord].

As previously agreed, a sixty-forty split, with him taking the forty and the military side sixty. For the five hundred boxes, that meant a total of three hundred items to be handed over to the other party.

50 [Hearts of the Lord] meant that he still had to add another 250 items.

Opening his Spatial Backpack, he put the silver hero equipment he had prepared in advance into the trade interface, one piece at a time.

Despite all being silver hero equipment, the grades varied, mainly ranging from Level 40 to Level 100.

Most were equipment with average attributes for their level, intermixed with a few outstanding and subpar pieces.

As for the First Order silver hero equipment below Level 40, he didn’t include a single piece in the trade.
