Chapter 126: Harvests from Two Micro-Worlds

Perhaps it was the influence of Belldan, but the results from this [World: Gate of the Rainbow Bridge] were incredibly bountiful. Not a single white card among the five; all were shimmering with blue and green light.

[Rainbow Gate, Spatial Card, Blue, Mobile Spatial Card. Allows for the setting of seven coordinates, each marked by a different color. By changing the color of the Rainbow Gate, one can teleport to the corresponding coordinate (Note: Once coordinates are fixed, they cannot be moved, and the gate must be opened by the player; others cannot operate it).]

[Breath of the Void, Skill Card, Green, Enables a human body to survive in environments like outer space. Survival duration is equivalent to half of the user's combat power.]

[Wandering God Corpse, Item Card, Blue, The corpse of a deity who died in the void. It has shrunk significantly due to void erosion, but it still counts as a divine corpse.]

[Eye of Surveillance, Item Card, Green, A small fragment of a true surveillance eye. It has the ability to monitor everything within a one-kilometer radius, though it is not comprehensive; it can only focus on up to five specific individuals.]

[Mysterious Potion, Item Card, Blue, A potion derived from mysterious powers. Drinking it restores 200 combat power.]

Looking over these items, Ou Xiaolu realized every single one was useful. Setting aside the Breath of the Void, which was essential for roaming space, even the Eye of Surveillance was enough to excite him.

Not to mention the teleportation gate with its seven set points; with this, he wouldn't even need to drive to the outskirts of New Town anymore. He could zip over and back instantly, saving him from constantly complaining about being a "country bumpkin" who had to trek to the suburbs every day.

As for the Wandering God Corpse, while it seemed useless for now, he shouldn't forget that he was about to reach level 3. A new avatar would soon emerge, and he certainly wanted a superior one. Preparing in advance and carefully selecting components was a logical strategy. Ou Xiaolu had already begun visualizing several combinations, depending on whether he could acquire the necessary materials.

Just then, a notification appeared for the final micro-world: [World: Secret Chamber] had finally concluded.

Unlike the [World: Island Prison], there was no prompt for forming a team. Ou Xiaolu was taken aback, as he had assumed their coordination was flawless enough to warrant a team formation.

He investigated further and discovered that the issue wasn't a lack of synergy, but rather that "Ninja" was a specialized profession. If a team consisted entirely of ninjas, it received statistical bonuses.

For instance, three ninjas could form a "Ninja Squad," five could form a "Ninja Unit," and ten could form a "Small Ninja Village." Therefore, the system did not support mixing ninjas with other professions in a small squad.

Ou Xiaolu didn't dwell on that; instead, his attention was caught by the next line: a team of twenty ninjas could be called a "Great Ninja Village," capable of training Genin-level ninjas to join the ranks.

This realization made his eyes light up. If he truly had twenty ninjas, he wouldn't care about the title of "Great Ninja Village"—even a "Small Ninja Village" would suffice if it could continuously produce new recruits.

He recalled that the first card he obtained was a Genin card, and he found the ninja role to be exceptionally versatile. Even a Genin, with only three skills, was proficient in both survival and combat.

With that in mind, Ou Xiaolu retrieved the three character cards, specifically replenishing the combat power of the two Genin to ensure they didn't become useless "trash cards" due to over-expenditure.

After moving the [World: Secret Chamber] to the discarded cards interface, Ou Xiaolu opened the clearance pack. As for experience and such, since the world was finished, those points weren't going anywhere; he saw no need to check them just yet.

Without the influence of Belldan this time, the haul wasn't as impressive: a standard pack of one blue, one green, and three white cards.

Wait—wasn't five white cards the norm? Since when did one blue, one green, and three white become the minimum standard? Ou Xiaolu wondered as he flipped through the five cards.

[Labyrinth Path, Spatial Card, Green, Trap-type Spatial Card. When placed on a path, it activates automatically upon anyone stepping within five meters, dragging them into a maze. The punishment can be set from being ejected and barred from passing, to killing the intruder.]

[Fear Mechanism, Trap Card, Blue, A mechanism placed on the ground that pops out to startle people, creating an atmosphere of fear to drive away the timid.]

[Flickering Streetlamp, Item Card, White, A streetlamp that can be stuck anywhere in the ground. It requires no electricity or energy and lights up automatically at night, though it has a quirk: it flickers occasionally.]

[Secret Door, Item Card, White, Can replace an existing door. Once installed, it becomes automatically hidden, visible only to the owner.]

[Mysterious Potion, Item Card, White, A potion derived from mysterious powers. Drinking it restores 50 combat power.]

Upon seeing the loot, Ou Xiaolu realized everything was related to labyrinths. That was fine; he could now clear the two paths to his valley. He would place the Labyrinth Path on one to block entry, and the Fear Mechanism on the other to scare off unwanted visitors.

To his surprise, while in the maze, the Genin and the Thief had teamed up to take down a summoned monster, yielding a high-quality item.

[Horn of the Cyclops, Item Card, Purple, Blowing this horn summons one to five Cyclopes at random. As summoned entities, they require no consumption of combat power. Their strength is equivalent to a weakened version of a Titan.]

This was a fantastic find. Although item cards were generally single-use unless otherwise specified, summoning one to five Cyclopes as allies was incredibly useful.

As for the name "Cyclops," Ou Xiaolu felt a bit indifferent. They were probably just smaller than actual giants; as long as they didn't exceed a certain size, no one would believe them if they claimed to be giants anyway.

After tallying his gains, Ou Xiaolu looked back and saw that while he was busy, Ah Luo had already started playing with Emilia. Charles and Mig were staring at Emilia, drooling, but they dared not say a word.

"Emilia," Ou Xiaolu thought for a moment, "it's late now. I'll find you a place to stay, and we can discuss everything tomorrow."

Just as Emilia was about to agree, Ou Xiaolu frowned. Why did everything have to happen all at once?
