Global Lords: My Species Can Mutate - Chapter 326 - 324: Dominator’s Certificate
Chapter 326: Chapter 324: Dominator’s Certificate
Clang—
Two pieces of the broken sword fell to the ground, emitting a clear sound.
It also brought Lin You back to his senses.
He looked puzzled, completely unable to comprehend the meaning of the Swordsmanship Grandmaster’s last words.
However, before he could dwell on it for long, a notification sounded in his mind.
[Congratulations, you have obtained the “Dominator’s Certificate.”]
[Please proceed to the Tenth Floor for the final test and activate it.]
Dominator’s Certificate?
What on earth?
Lin You’s expression froze, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.
Could this be what the Swordsmanship Grandmaster mentioned: something that can only be obtained by clearing the highest floor?
But no matter how he tried, he couldn’t sense the existence of that thing.
It seems that, as the notification suggested, the final test must be completed to activate it.
While he was pondering,
a sudden exclamation came from the crowd below.
In another direction, the Cyan Phoenix had already defeated its opponent, fully recovered, and was ready to challenge the final test.
“The final reward is mine!”
The Cyan Phoenix glanced at Lin You in the distance, looking proud.
He was different from Lin You.
Relying completely on the strong power of a veteran lord, along with the racial advantage in Flame Manipulation, he blasted his opponent with rounds of ranged explosions.
Thus, he took less time than Lin You and didn’t consume as much energy.
Just as Lin You finished the battle,
he stood up and slowly headed towards the tenth-floor platform.
On the platform of the Tenth Floor, where he was positioned, a Mountain-Opening Axe exuding a heavy aura was embedded in the center of the platform.
Even from afar, a dense atmosphere could be felt enveloping the surroundings, as if it was suppressing the entire space.
Seeing this, Lin You was shocked internally.
Ignoring his confusion, he quickly utilized the Power of Rule for some simple healing and set off towards the Tenth Floor with his saber.
“It seems the final reward is likely obtained by the Cyan Phoenix.”
“Alas, what a pity, although that guy is strong, he still falls short compared to old lords like the Cyan Phoenix.”
“Looking at him, all covered in injuries, the previous battle must have consumed him greatly.”
“In this condition, it’s hard to say whether he can pass the Tenth Floor test.”
“Even if he can’t pass, reaching the Tenth Floor is already very impressive.”
The lords below discussed fervently, with words filled with regret.
After all, they watched the battle with their own eyes.
Compared to the Cyan Phoenix’s Attribute Suppression and racial advantage, Lin You’s fierce and domineering combat style was obviously more appealing, earning their applause.
Even so,
they had to admit,
in terms of overall strength, the Cyan Phoenix was clearly superior, an undeniable fact.
“Something seems off, look up there quickly!”
Suddenly, a shout interrupted their discussion.
The lords collectively froze, instinctively looking towards the high platform.
Only to find that the Cyan Phoenix, who stepped onto the tenth floor first, was now on one knee on the platform’s edge, sweating profusely.
Crushed to the ground by an immense, boundless power!
“What’s happening? Why did he suddenly kneel down?”
“Could he have suffered an internal injury in the earlier battle?”
“No, it seems to be that Mountain-Opening Axe!”
“Oh crap! What is that!?”
Amid exclamations, all lords shifted their gaze towards the center of the platform.
Only to see that the Mountain-Opening Axe had somehow transformed into a massive virtual shadow, towering proudly on the platform, radiating a palpable terrorizing pressure.
Even a lord as strong as the Cyan Phoenix was forced to the ground by this pressure.
Only relying on his remarkable willpower could he inch forward toward the center of the platform.
“Could this be… the test of the Tenth Floor?”
Quickly,
the lords discerned the peculiarity on the platform, becoming even more shocked.
They initially thought that the final level, like before, would become an SSS-level opponent.
But now they realized they were mistaken.
And terribly so.
Even someone as strong as the Cyan Phoenix found it so difficult, it was far more terrifying than an SSS-level opponent by several folds!
Presumably, to gain the recognition of the Sword of the Dead, one must pass the test of the Mountain-Opening Axe and reach the platform center.
Thinking this,
everyone couldn’t help but look at the other platform, where Lin You was also stepping onto the Tenth Floor.
Of course, Lin You was well aware of the changes happening with the Cyan Phoenix.
While astonished, he also felt an immense sense of gravity.
He sheathed the Ice Soul Great Saber, took a deep breath.
Then slowly lifted his foot and stepped onto the Tenth Floor platform.
Boom!
A loud thunderous noise exploded in his mind.
At the moment he stepped onto the Tenth Floor, the scene before Lin You’s eyes suddenly changed, transforming into a terrifying battlefield of clashing swords and arms.
Everywhere his gaze landed was engulfed in the flames of war, filled with frenzied fighting warriors, and a land dyed red with blood and corpses.
“Kill!!”
“Charge!!”
Roars, along with shouts and cries, constantly echoed in his ears.
A suffocating, deadly aura surged toward him, nearly causing him to lose balance.
But the next second,
he realized that he was standing at the back of a team on the Dragon Chariot.
At some point, a set of Purple Gold Dragon Robes had appeared on his body, and a dignified Imperial Crown was atop his head.
These…
Are all these soldiers under his command?
Lin You’s gaze trembled as he watched the confrontation between two armies just within reach.
The overwhelming aura of slaughter and bloodlust engulfed him like a tidal wave, attacking him from all directions.
It seemed intent on drowning him, pulling him into this endless killing field.
In his heart, a faint bloodthirsty desire was stirred.
“Hmph!”
Lin You snorted coldly, a captivating light bursting from his eyes.
When it came to killing, he had slain many along the way, never hesitating.
A mere battlefield trying to disturb his mind? Ridiculous!
Now, he finally understood why the Swordsmanship Grandmaster had said he already met all the conditions to pass the Tenth Floor.
It turned out the platform he stood on was a test of one’s mind.
Just after experiencing that battle, his mental state greatly improved.
If it were someone with a weak mind, they might have already been devoured by that aura, spiritually harmed.
He contemplated.
Lin You stepped forward, and the golden light in his brow exploded.
The scenery before him shattered instantly, and he reappeared on the platform.
Without any hindrance, he slowly walked toward the saber emanating sky-high blood light.
This change immediately caused an uproar below.
“What… what is going on?”
“Am I seeing things?”
“Did he actually pass the test so quickly?”
“How did he do it!?”
At this moment, the platform where Lin You stood was already enveloped in the intense killing intent and blood light emanating from the saber, appearing more terrifying than the area surrounding the Cyan Phoenix.
It had a soul-stirring effect.
However, Lin You seemed unfazed.
He just stood there for a moment and then walked toward the saber, as if there were nothing amiss, a serene walk, shocking them.
But soon.
The onlookers’ attention was drawn to Lin You’s actions.
For Lin You had already reached the center of the platform, and with a single pull, lifted the blood-colored saber.
In an instant, the aura of blood evil qi on the platform dissipated, all absorbed back into the saber as if it never existed.
Simultaneously, a series of notifications echoed in Lin You’s mind.
[Congratulations, you have earned the recognition of the Sword of the Dead, and the Dominator’s Certificate has been successfully activated.]
[Rewarded with a random treasure, and a Rare Species Token of equipment type.]
[Title function activated, please check in the territory interface.]
A title?
What is that?
Lin You, filled with doubt, looked at the saber in his hand.
The moment the prompt faded, the saber swiftly dissolved into energy, merging into the golden light at his brow, gradually forming a dominant saber mark no bigger than a finger, which then vanished.
Soon after, a string of information came into view.
[Dominator’s Certificate (Title): The dominator’s majesty is inviolable, ignoring all spiritual class attacks, reducing enemy’s attributes within its range by 5%, increasing Power of Faith acquisition by 100%, and is granted to the first person to pass the Path of the Overlord test; cannot be transferred.]
[Note: The test is divided into five parts: Dominator, Wise, Brave, Benevolent, Loyal. You can only acquire the title by passing the corresponding test, and one person can only possess one at a time.]
!!!
After reading the information, Lin You was utterly stunned.
This so-called “Dominator’s Certificate” turned out to be a title?
A title is one thing, but its attributes are incredibly strong.
It’s practically an upgraded version of territory honors!
When he reached the top of the kingdom at Tier Six, the “Peak Lord” honor he received increased Faith acquisition speed by 100%.
The overwhelming effect left an indelible impression on him to this day.
He never expected to find something similar in the Tier Eight battlefield, and even more powerful!
With this.
It would be much easier for him to gain Power of Faith.
By then, he could quickly close the base power gap with veteran lords.
No wonder this is the number one battlefield, the rewards are even better than imagined.
And besides this title, he also received treasure and a Rare Token reward, all deposited in his personal space.
But before he could check, the platform beneath him began to collapse with a rumble.
Meanwhile.
In other parts of the battlefield.
Several battlefield relics identical to this Sword Tomb also started shaking.
The platforms representing the test of the Path of the Overlord began collapsing, leaving only the platforms in the other four directions intact.
Which meant.
Once someone in each direction passed the final test, other lords would lose the qualification to challenge that direction entirely!
Five directions, five rewards.
Now one was gone, leaving four remaining.
Instantly making the lords below anxious.
And some turned their gaze to Lin You, who just gained rewards, with a fierce expression.
Lin You realized that if he left the Sword Tomb like this, he would likely be targeted by many.
Though unafraid, he didn’t want the hassle of wasting time.
While the platform hadn’t completely collapsed, he quickly used the Territory Teleportation Array function, constructing a teleportation array five meters in diameter beneath his feet.
[Distance to Territory 500 km, teleportation cost 250,000 Magic Energy, do you want to teleport?]
250,000 Magic Energy was nothing to him now.
Without hesitation, he responded: “Teleport.”
In no time.
The teleportation array was complete.
In a flash, he vanished from the spot, leaving the crowded lords to stare at each other, frustrated.
But they could only focus on the remaining four tests.
Which were the tests of Wisdom, Bravery, Benevolence, and Loyalty.
And what the Cyan Phoenix now faced was the Path of the Brave, a test specifically designed to measure one’s extent of bravery…
