Everyone's Class: One Effort, 10,000x Bonus Reward! - Chapter 358: Summoning and Revival, the First Appearance of a Mythic Rank Staff
Aiden’s eyes instantly fixed on the parchment scroll in his hand, which gave off a dark, dim glow.
The scroll was made of a strange material, neither metal nor wood. Across its surface flowed a layer of obscure runes that made people uneasy.
Even just holding it quietly in his hand, Aiden could feel a terrifying Strength inside it, one powerful enough to twist life and death.
He took a deep breath and directly checked the detailed information of this Mythic Rank item.
[Undead Summoning Scroll: Mythic Rank special item.]
[Effect: After activation, it can forcibly absorb the soul of nearby high-level creatures that have just died.]
[The user only needs to consume a very small amount of soul strength to summon them as undead puppets under absolute control!]
[Note: The summoned undead souls will perfectly inherit 100% of their original combat power in life. They feel no pain and cannot truly die, until the soul power stored inside the scroll is completely used up!]
After reading these short lines, Aiden’s pupils suddenly shrank.
“Perfectly inherit 100% of their combat power from when they were alive?”
“And it only needs a small amount of soul strength!”
Aiden’s heartbeat skipped for a moment. He understood better than anyone how valuable those words were.
In the Abyss, even divine powerhouse who were skilled in necromancy could only summon undead creatures that kept at most 70% to 80% of their original strength.
But this scroll could perfectly recreate the target’s peak battle power from when they were alive!
Just imagine it: if, after killing the level 90 Demon Duke Ethan, he had used this scroll to absorb Ethan’s soul.
Then wouldn’t that mean he now had a level 90 Demon Duke as a bodyguard, one he could call out at any time, fearless and completely obedient?
“This is basically a strategic-level super weapon!”
Aiden slowly curled his lips into a satisfied smile and casually tossed the scroll in his hand twice.
But there was an even deeper light flashing in his eyes.
“Still, if I only use it as a fighter, that would be too limited for someone like me, with the 10,000x critical hit system.”
Aiden suddenly thought of that extremely crazy idea again.
The body left behind by a lower Demon God!
The human Liam, whose body had been taken over by Wraith!
What if…
What if he used this scroll to absorb a powerful Demon God Wraith shard,
and then, with the help of Wraith Goust, who knew a great deal about souls, put it into that lower Demon God’s body!
“And when that body comes back to life, if I kill it with my own hands…”
“Wouldn’t that be the same as me actually killing a lower Demon God?!”
Aiden’s breathing became faster, and his eyes were full of excitement and madness that he could not hide.
If this plan really worked, then he could exploit the system loophole to the extreme.
The 10,000x critical hit reward triggered by killing a lower Demon God… the thought of it was almost too good to imagine!
“This scroll must have even deeper uses. I have to keep it safe.”
Aiden forced himself to calm down and carefully put the Undead Summoning Scroll into the deepest part of his storage space.
Next came the reward for the Bane of All Races quest.
With a slight movement of his mind.
A cross-shaped pendant giving off a soft white glow suddenly appeared in his palm.
The light was not harsh, but it carried a holy aura that seemed to ignore the laws of the Abyss.
[Life-Exchange Cross: Special Mythic Rank revival item.]
[Effect: Wear it on your body. When the user suffers a fatal attack and their HP drops to zero, the item will activate automatically.]
[After activation, the user will instantly revive on the spot, and their HP, MP, stamina, and all negative status effects will be fully restored to their peak state!]
[Note: This item is a one-time consumable. It will break immediately after use.]
Looking at the small Cross in his hand, Aiden fell into a long silence.
Revival!
This was a heaven-defying power that countless Great Venerable, and even some low-level gods, could only dream of!
Other than divine powerhouse who had already raised their soul into an Inner Spirit, and the Abyss Demon God, all other Reclasser—no matter even if they were level 99 Great Venerable—would still die for real once they were killed.
In this cruel age where the whole world had become data, on this Earth that could be swallowed by the Abyss at any moment.
Life was often more fragile than paper.
Before getting this Life-Exchange Cross, Aiden may have had terrifying combat power, but deep down he had always felt a sword hanging over his head.
He was afraid of death.
He was afraid that before he became truly unbeatable, some Abyss Demon God would ignore all status and just kill him with one slap.
“But now, things are different.”
Aiden slowly tightened his grip around the Cross in his hand, feeling its warm and gentle touch. At last, the sense of danger in his heart was greatly eased.
It meant he now had a second life!
Even if he really faced a certain-kill situation beyond his control, he now had the confidence to deal with it calmly—or even strike back and kill his enemy instead.
But this relaxed feeling lasted for less than three seconds.
Aiden’s eyes turned cold and clear once again.
“A one-time item is still just a one-time item.”
“If I start depending on revival items and lose my caution and respect for battle, then I’m just looking for death.”
How many Demon God were there in the Abyss?
And the Heavenly Demon Clan was an untouchable divine Rank race.
If they truly set their sights on him, then forget one extra life—even ten lives would not be enough.
“No matter how strong outside tools are, they still can’t compare to my own Strength.”
“Either I find a way to make Divine Golden Sunflame evolve again and gain the absolute Strength to burn away Inner Spirit…”
“Or I push my level higher at all costs, understand the laws of the world, survive the thunder tribulation, and become a true divine powerhouse!”
Aiden quietly made up his mind. Then he carefully put the Life-Exchange Cross around his neck.
After securing it close to his body, Aiden slowly let out a long breath and looked at the last unclaimed reward on the system screen.
That was also the reward he had been looking forward to the most!
“The reward for the Bane of All Races quest—a Mythic Rank staff!”
Right now, the Abyss the Flame Demon staff in his hand had already been reforged, but it was still starting to fall behind his insane damage output.
As soon as he confirmed it with a thought—
Buzz!
At that moment, it felt like all the air in the room had been completely sucked away!
A terrifying wave of power, strong enough to slightly twist space itself, burst out from Aiden’s half-open right hand!
It was a long staff, shining like the starry sky itself.
At the top of the staff was a dark crystal, as if it contained a whole miniature universe inside.
Countless tiny starlights appeared and disappeared within the crystal. Every flicker came with a suffocating tide of magic power.
Even before checking its stats, Aiden could clearly feel it,the magic power inside his body was already cheering and boiling wildly because of this staff!
Just as Aiden’s eyes lit up and he was about to open the status panel of this Mythic Rank staff.
Knock, knock, knock.
A few clear knocks suddenly came from outside the door.
“Aiden, are you in there?”
Cheryl’s clear voice, carrying a hint of caution, came through the door.
Aiden paused slightly and pulled back some of the world-destroying aura from the staff.
“Come in. The door isn’t locked.”
Creak.
The door was gently pushed open.
Cheryl walked into the room with light steps. But the moment she looked up at Aiden, it was as if she had been struck by lightning. She froze on the spot.
Her eyes widened suddenly, her face full of shock and fear that she could not hide at all.
In her eyes, Aiden had changed!
If the Aiden who killed those genius earlier had been like a sharp sword with its edge fully exposed.
Then the Aiden standing there now, even doing nothing at all, felt like a bottomless Abyss stretching ten thousand feet deep!
He had just leveled up, and he had even killed a level 90 Demon Duke. The terrifying killing aura stained with the blood of a high-level Demon was impossible to completely hide.
“H-he… how did his aura become this terrifying?!”
Cheryl felt like even breathing had become difficult. It was as if an invisible giant hand was tightly squeezing her heart.
Even though she was Rainn’s younger sister and had inherited the Primordial Miko legacy, even though she had seen many powerful beings from the Abyss races.
At this moment, she actually felt a pressure from Aiden that was almost like facing a god!
How was that possible?
Aiden was clearly only a level 50 human!
Then Cheryl’s eyes were pulled, almost against her will, toward the starry staff in Aiden’s hand.
The pressure still coming from that staff was so strong that the Miko magic power inside Cheryl completely stopped flowing.
“Th-this… what level of equipment is that?”
“Could it be… Mythic Rank?!”
The moment that thought appeared, Cheryl immediately shook her head and denied it again and again in her heart.
Impossible. Absolutely impossible.
Forget a level 50 Reclasser—even those level 99 Great Venerable might not have a perfect Mythic Rank weapon.
This had to be just an extremely high-quality Epic Rank staff with a unique design and unbelievably pure magic power.
Yes, that had to be it.
Seeing Cheryl standing there in a daze, her chest rising and falling sharply, Aiden slightly raised an eyebrow.
With a turn of his wrist, he directly put the Mythic Rank staff into his storage space, completely removing that terrifying pressure.
“What’s wrong, Cheryl?” Aiden asked calmly, a gentle smile appearing at the corner of his mouth.
As the pressure disappeared, Cheryl finally came back to her senses and started breathing heavily, as if waking from a dream.
Her cheeks instantly turned red, and she did not quite dare to look Aiden in the eyes.
This was too embarrassing. She had actually been so frightened by Aiden’s presence that she could not even move.
“N-no… it’s nothing.”
Cheryl quickly shook her head, trying hard to make her voice sound normal.
