Chapter 3: Stealing the Ancient Dragon God's Bloodline
Chapter 3: Stealing the Ancient Dragon God's Bloodline
"Freshman Gift Bag opening... screening... Elemental Category meets requirements... Bloodline Category meets requirements... opening random roulette of two choices... Bloodline Roulette Open!"
The cold mechanical voice echoed in William's ears, and the scene in front of him began to distort. The shriveled scarlet hand retracted back into the sky, and a huge red roulette descended under the flickering of countless dark lightning bolts.
Strange words were carved on the wheel as if it was the truth of this world. Although William did not know a single word, he felt a headache just by looking at it. It was as if someone had smashed him with a hammer.
He closed his eyes to calm himself down for a moment, then opened them again and carefully looked at the words in each section on the wheel.
Gradually, he understood what these words meant.
"Eternal Snake!"
"Cerberus of Hell!"
"Devouring Enchantress!"
"..."
Terrifying demonic shadows that devoured their natural enemies appeared behind these names. Each of these demonic shadows made William feel a fatal threat.
Countless lightning and flames swept over as if they could burn the entire world. That power was many times higher than the Supernal Rank seniors that William had seen before.
However, such a powerful existence was even giving off an absurd feeling after being locked in a small roulette.
"Ding, the roulette has been built. Host, please rotate the roulette and draw randomly. The system will help you steal the target's bloodline."
William also knew from the interface that such lucky draw could only be used again after the next system upgrade apart from the Freshman Gift Pack.
Therefore, the opportunity was precious.
"I hope I can draw the best Endowed Supernatural Ability!"
William muttered to himself and spun the roulette.
Although this world was hugely different from Earth, there was one thing that made William feel very similar. It was that on Earth, it was called the university entrance examination, and it was called the advanced examination in this world.
A test would be conducted for every person who had awakened their Endowed Supernatural Ability. Only those who had excellent results would be able to obtain more and more precious resources. They could continue to cultivate their Endowed Supernatural Ability, and they would not have to work hard for food.
They could become respected existences and walk the path of the expert.
The advanced examination of that year was in a month. The content of the exam was ability. Every year, there would be countless geniuses and ruthless people in the advanced examination. There were also many noble children and descendants of the experts. They had received perfect training since they were young, and their starting point was far above that of ordinary beings.
Some of the descendants of nobles did not even need to go to the wilderness when they awakened their Endowed Supernatural Ability. Someone would help them catch a powerful monster back to the fort and lock it in a cage for them to kill at will.
The gap was simply unimaginable.
William would need powerful ability if he wanted to stand out in the advanced examination. He could change his fate only by getting a good ranking in the advanced examination.
Crack! Crack!
The wheel gradually slowed down and finally stopped at a pitch-black area. On it flickered four words that were surrounded by fire snakes.
"Ancient Dragon God!"
William couldn't help but read out loud. The shriveled scarlet hand descended from the sky and grabbed William just as he said that.
The endless river of time suddenly began to rapidly move backwards when it brought William back to the crack in mid-air.
William could not tell. Perhaps he was moving forward.
There were all kinds of strange scenes in that vast river of time. The pink bubbles exploded into man-eating flowers, trying to stop every passer-by.
A huge gear appeared out of thin air, crushing everything that trespassed into the river of time.
William could feel his insignificance and the vastness of time, even if he only saw a part of it.
William would have long been ground into a pile of bones and then dissipated if not because of the protection of the giant hand.
Or he would have been killed by those who guarded the river of time.
Not to mention him, the gods would probably only be killed and would not have the ability to resist barged in here if they barged in.
However, William was not afraid. Instead, he yearned for more.
"One day, I will control the river of time, and I will be eternal!"
Everything became possible with the system.
However, the scene in front of him suddenly blurred just as he finished speaking. The giant hand brought him through the border of the river of time, and a sense of dizziness surged up. The world in front of him had already changed before he could figure out what had happened.
That was a barren world. The top of his head was covered by a dome made of an unknown material. He could only see the hazy sky, and the ground was barren. The scene was like that, even at a distance away.
The world was filled with a powerful force. The hurricane fell from the sky as if it wanted to overwhelm any existence. No wonder the place was barren. Nothing could survive here.
Fortunately, William had obtained the affinity of the Wind Element. The hurricane had already become gentle when it was twenty-five meters above his head.
Although William did not see any monsters, he could feel a powerful aura. The aura was more terrifying than any top-level dangerous monsters that William had seen in the Monster Atlas.
The shriveled scarlet giant hand was floating in the air, and there was no notification on the interface.
"Where, where is the monster that I am going to steal?"
William looked around in confusion. He wanted to look for it, but there was nothing.
"Could it be that this world itself is the monster?"
He felt that it was impossible after thinking for a moment.
The system had already told him the name of the target to steal. The target was called the Ancient Dragon God. How could it be the world, but where was the Ancient Dragon God? Could it be that the system had brought them to the wrong place?
William looked at the giant hand in the sky with confusion, but the system did not give him any response.
"Whatever, I can't waste this opportunity. System, steal the Endowed Supernatural Ability!"
The giant scarlet hand in the sky raised its five fingers towards the sky as if it was absorbing something just as he finished speaking.
"Could it be in the sky?"
William muttered. Then, he heard the cold mechanical voice of the system.
"Ding! The stealing begins!"
The giant, shriveled, crimson hand with sharp fingernails shot out a pitch-black light.
The black light flew higher and higher into the air. William crossed his hands and waited anxiously.
At that moment, a progress bar appeared in front of him.
1% ... 2%
"Yes, there it is!"
William smirked. There was a hint of pity in his excitement. He had yet to see how the Ancient Dragon God looked.
But that was the bloodline of the Ancient Dragon God. He would have saved a lot of processes if it was successfully were stolen.
35% ... 48%
The hurricane in the sky became violent as the progress bar continued to increase, and the temperature also gradually rose. It was as if something was gradually awakening.
That made William nervously gulped.
He would be able to get the top ten of the advanced examination if he obtained the Ancient Dragon God Bloodline.
It was not easy to get the Freshman Gift Bag. It must be a success!
