Lord: Sequence Overlord

Chapter 154 The Wrath of the Dragon King and the Miracle Time Tower

Chapter 153

"Humans, I will always remember you."

The bronze dragon's clone cast the Dragon King's Blessing on Rosen with venomous intent.

Rosen watched as the bronze dragon clone suddenly vanished, then manipulated the angelic spirit beast to reattach its head to its body.

Although he had a strong will to live, losing his head was still a fatal injury.

The reason he has been able to hold on until now is entirely because he secretly opened up a local virtual realm from the beginning. With the power of the virtual realm eye technique, he converted his life into a health bar. As long as the health bar is not depleted, he can remain alive no matter what kind of injury he suffers.

After reattaching his head to his neck, Rosen returned to the mysterious study to check for any potential health risks.

By checking his own information through the main god's computer, he discovered that he had received the Dragon King's blessing, a blessing that only a demigod of the dragon race could bestow. This blessing would allow him to remain young forever, and all negative curses against him would be difficult to take effect.

No matter how you look at it, this seems to be a powerful blessing of positive goodwill.

However, Rosen thought again that the Bronze Dragon was determined to fight him to the death.

Even if a bronze dragon is killed and resurrected with the help of the spirit realm, it is impossible for it to retain its memories. Therefore, the resurrected bronze dragon will not know which human killed it, and all its memories will be reverted to the time before its death 20,000 years ago.

This means that the bronze dragon, after being resurrected in the Spirit Realm reset, cannot even remember its hatred.

But with the Dragon King's blessing, things are different; this blessing will not disappear because of the Bronze Dragon's rebirth.

The bronze dragon could easily recognize that this was a mark left behind before it was killed last time.

If a negative curse is left behind, it is certainly troublesome to remove, but there are always ways.

However, leaving positive blessings is not only more difficult to remove, but often people are reluctant to remove them due to greed.

After all, the Bronze Dragon was trapped in the Time Dragon Nest Spirit Realm, and even if it left clues for revenge, it would not be able to break out of the Time Dragon Nest.

Therefore, the meaning of this blessing is simply that the Bronze Dragon left himself a sliver of hope for revenge. If he could break out of the Spirit Realm and truly be reborn, it wouldn't be too late to seek revenge then.

However, this also shows that the bronze dragon Flada really hates him to the core.

Rosen shook his head. If he had the guts, he could break out of the Time Dragon's Nest and seek revenge.

But now, he needs to search for the Tower of Time.

The Time Tower, controlled by the Bronze Dragon, is essentially a Sequence 3 extraordinary building.

The real Time Tower has been destroyed, with only its base remaining at the bottom of the Time Rift, serving as the foundation for the Time Dragon's Nest.

As for the replicas of various levels generated within the Spirit Realm, they are now all precious treasures held by the Thunder Empire in official hands.

This replica of the Time Dragon's Nest has dropped to Sequence 5.

However, it is still an extraordinary building of astonishing value, and it can be fully integrated into the divine territory when he reaches the fifth rank of nobility.

Rosen quickly located the control center of the Time Tower on the upper level.

However, he was unable to store the Time Tower after refining it, as he could clearly feel it being sealed layer by layer.

It seems to be the work of the Thunder Empire, which disappointed him somewhat. In the end, he could only pull out a wave of divinity by connecting the network, and he couldn't even completely drain it, otherwise it would be hard to explain why the Time Tower collapsed.

Half a month has passed in the blink of an eye. In these fifteen days, the bronze dragon has been gradually melted by the gastric juices in the Gluttonous Stomach.

The moment the bronze dragon died, several loot orbs appeared in the scavenging space.

Rosen eagerly conducted a thorough search of the entire spiritual realm, but found nothing more than some extraordinary plants.

Rosen then regretfully left the Time Dragon's Nest and returned to the base of the Time Tower in reality.

Duke Milburn was already waiting outside. Judging from his pajamas, he had obviously sensed the moment the Bronze Dragon died and the Spirit Realm reset, and then rushed to the Time Dragon's Nest without even changing his clothes.

"You actually killed the bronze dragon."

Duke Milburn looked at Rosen in disbelief.

"I have collected many powerful treasures that can restrain dragons."

Rosen sighed with a bitter expression.

"You're doing this for a miracle!"

Duke Milburn thought for a moment and then said affirmatively.

Rosen nodded, clearly sensing that Duke Milburn was much happier.

After all, the spiritual realm they were guarding had been conquered by an outsider at Sequence 7.

No matter how you look at it, you're definitely not happy.

But if he suffers heavy losses, the Duke of Milburn will naturally be in a better mood.

Achieving a miracle—this was an excuse Rosen had already come up with.

Since the God's computer connected to the God's Network, he has looked up a lot of information about miracles.

Therefore, all miracle treasures originate from miracles.

For example, the Aquarius series, personally witnessed the birth of the first Sequence Potion.

For example, the Magic Altar hunted down alchemical dolls across different levels.

For example, the broken ring of the sea god should have witnessed the fall of a god.

The fall of a deity is likely the only known way to reliably create miraculous treasures.

As for other miraculous events, there is no guarantee that they will produce miraculous treasures.

Therefore, Lawson couldn't say for sure whether any of the loot orbs in the scavenging space contained miraculous treasures.

He didn't inspect the spoils within the Spirit Realm because he was worried that if a miraculous treasure were indeed born, he might lose control of his expression and let Duke Milburn notice, which could immediately turn their nascent friendship into hostility.

At the Duke of Milburn's castle, Rosen received the warmest hospitality.

Even some of the rare and extraordinary books in the study that involved time and were not open to the public were all allowed to be read by Rosen.

Of course, in return, Rosen also shared some of his experiences and insights on hunting bronze dragons.

After learning of these insights, Duke Milburn felt somewhat sorry for Rosen.

All of these extraordinary artifacts are Sequence 4 and are one-time use items, but their value is not much less than that of Sequence 3 extraordinary artifacts, because these extraordinary artifacts are rare items that can activate Sequence 7.

All things considered, Rosen lost several hundred million spiritual crystals in one hunt for the bronze dragon.

The difficulty and rewards were severely mismatched, so Duke Milburn immediately abandoned the idea of ​​hunting the bronze dragon.

After reading all the books he could, Rosen left the Time Rift Valley and returned to Frost City.

Only then did he open the scavenging space, his heart pounding.

There were three orbs of light in total. Rosen crushed the dimmest orb and obtained a Hunter Sequence skill crystal.

Time Shooter, a skill crystal of sequence 5.

This is an extremely rare type of hunter skill, belonging to the legendary category.

For example, if a hunter is originally a trap hunter, after activating the archer skill, all of his skills will have added time effects, which is almost equivalent to the entire skill set being elevated.

In the history of the Hunter sequence, there have been instances where a Sequence 9 hunter hunted a Sequence 0 hunter.

No one knows how he achieved that Sequence 9, but afterwards he obtained a Sequence 1 skill crystal similar to that of the Time Archer.
There are no sequence level restrictions for mastering these skill crystals; you can master a skill as long as there is a skill slot available.

At that time, once this special skill was activated in Sequence 9, it could even directly threaten Sequence 1.

This being was once one of the few Sequence 0 deities in the human hunter sequence, and one of the most powerful Sequence 0s. However, he did not have a good ending, as he attempted to challenge the only true god in the human hunter sequence and ultimately perished.

Rosen put away the skill crystal, preparing to master the skill when he reached Sequence 6.

This was still the weakest of the spoils, and he couldn't wait to crush the second one.

【Primal Essence: Dragon King's Wrath: Extraordinary Artifact】

[Level: Sequence 5]

[Attributes: Increases base damage by 120%, and possesses multiple freely changeable forms]

[Source Ability 1: Time Scope - Briefly see the past and future through the scope]

[Source Ability 2: Future Silencer - All bullets fired now can silently appear in the future]

[Source Ability 3: Bullet Time - Ability to instantly enter a state of time perception]

[Source Ability 4: Dragon King's Roar Bullet - Condenses a Dragon King's Roar Bullet composed of Time Dragon Breath]

[Source Ability 5: Fusion Evolution - Possibly capable of growth and evolution under specific conditions]

Rosen picked up the Dragon King's Wrath, which turned out to be a foot-long flintlock pistol.

It has an overall golden-yellow color, which is the original color of bronze.

The muzzle is shaped like a dragon's head, and the surface of the gun body is covered with a clock relief composed of countless gears.

Because it was the most suitable source material equipment for hunters, transformed from hunting abilities, Rosen easily refined the Dragon King's Wrath.

The flintlock pistol in his hand could transform at will into a pistol, a sniper rifle, a bow and crossbow, and even a small blowgun and a giant ballista. Dragon King's Wrath could change any ranged weapon that most hunters could control.

Of course, no matter how things change, the basic attributes and skills remain the same.

At most, the pistol form has a faster rate of fire, the sniper rifle form has a longer range, the blowgun form is more concealed at close range, the bow form has stronger firepower, the crossbow form balances rate of fire and damage, and finally the ballista and the giant cannon have the slowest rate of fire and the strongest damage.

In terms of damage alone, Dragon King's Wrath is more than twice as powerful as the Godslayer Crossbow.

If skills are taken into account, the gap between the two sides becomes even more obvious.

Rosen's hunter sequence has reached sequence 7, and his Nen skill level has reached LV3.

He had one more chance to create a new Nen ability or significantly enhance his existing one, but he didn't use it.

Now that he had decided to use it, Rosen disassembled the Godslayer Crossbow into two parts.

The Hunter's Eye was separated out, retaining its core capabilities such as omnidirectional vision, 30x visual enhancement, automatic recognition, automatic tracking photography, uploading, synthesis, and destruction. These capabilities were then transformed into a third Nen ability and completely integrated into the right eye.

This is equivalent to completely separating the aiming component of the God-Slaying Crossbow, the God-Slaying Demon Eye, and transforming it into a pupil technique for the right eye. Rosen then integrated the God-Slaying Crossbow into the Dragon King's Wrath. The Dragon King's Wrath has the ability to fuse and evolve, and by integrating the God-Slaying Crossbow into it, he deeply bound the Dragon King's Wrath to his Nen ability, granting it the potential to upgrade and strengthen along with his Nen ability.

【Primal Essence: Dragon King's Wrath: Extraordinary Artifact】

[Level: Sequence 5]

[Attributes: Increases base damage by 160%, possesses multiple freely changeable forms, greatly enhances Nen damage, and can hold and store all of one's own Nen.]

[Attachments: Time Sight, Future Silencer, Artist Magazine]

[Divine Skills: Bullet Time, Dragon King's Roar]

[False Theocracy: Hunting - Hunting spiritual beings can slightly restore one's own spirituality and extremely slightly increase it. There is a certain probability of capturing a spiritual being and gaining additional rewards.]

With a thought, Rosen vanished from his spot and reappeared inside the illusory realm of his left eye.

His virtual world is a virtual world, which normally cannot contain real matter and life from the outside world.

However, his true form is an exception; he can transform his physical body into a spiritual form and then enter the virtual world, just like when he enters the spirit world.

In the past, the virtual world could only scan and copy inanimate objects. However, since it merged with the extraordinary essence of photographers and combined with the photographic abilities of the God-Hunter's Eye, it can now copy everything captured in the virtual world.

So, Rosen, several kilometers ahead, used photographic footage to create a replica of a bronze dragon.

Of course, the bronze dragon that was copied was fake; it dissipated as soon as it left the void.

However, within the Void Realm, this bronze dragon, whose photographic copy was indeed replicated there, could exhibit some of the power of Sequence 5.

Of course, this only refers to the power that the Bronze Dragon has displayed; the power it hasn't used cannot be replicated through photography or the Void Realm.

Rosen's Dragon King's Wrath, in its flintlock form, also transforms into a sniper rifle.

Through the time scope, he saw three bronze dragons simultaneously: one from a few seconds ago, one from now, and one from the future. He could clearly see the movement trajectories of all three different timelines.

With this time-tracking scope, predictive shooting is merely the most basic method.

Rosen activated the future silencer, and the bronze dragon seen through the time scope was only a few seconds away.

Rosen instantly locked onto the Bronze Dragon a few seconds later and fired a Time Element Quadruple Bullet.

However, one second passed, then two, three, four, five seconds passed...

The Time Element Quadruple Bullet seemed to vanish, and the Bronze Dragon remained unharmed.

However, at the sixth second, the Bronze Dragon, which was flying at supersonic speed through time acceleration in the air, suddenly moved to the position that Rosen last saw through the time sight. The Time Element Quadruple Bullet, which had disappeared, also appeared out of thin air and hit the Bronze Dragon.

Rosen immediately realized how terrifying the future silencer would be.

All powerful beings possess strong perception, making it increasingly difficult to launch a sneak attack on them.

Therefore, all ranged attacks mastered by demigod hunters must be imbued with characteristics such as guaranteed hit and weakening the enemy's perception.

The future silencer uses the power of time to send bullets several seconds into the future, completely weakening the enemy's perception of danger. This is equivalent to a special guaranteed hit effect, and it also gives the hunter a few seconds to escape after a sneak attack.

Otherwise, with the Bronze Dragon's ability to see the future, that shot would never have hit.

Rosen then tried out Bullet Time and Dragon King's Roar. Bullet Time grants the hunter a sense of time slowing down, which allows for a stronger instantaneous reaction.

Sometimes, the Eye of Time sees the future, and then sees itself being stabbed in the back a second later.

However, limited by their own reaction time, they can't avoid it even if they see it.

Now that we have bullet time, it can be of great use whether we are defending against ambushes or in close combat.

As for the Dragon King's Roar Bomb, its only lethal ability truly startled Rosen.

This skill cannot cause any direct damage; it won't even break the target's skin. However, it can cause a significant amount of time to be lost within its range. For example, Void Guardian, which could normally last for half an hour, might only last a few minutes after being hit by Dragon King's Roar.

The Bronze Dragon was trapped and died by the Void Guardian; the creation of this skill must be related to the Bronze Dragon's resentment.

As a result, the Time Dragon Breath that constitutes the Dragon King's Roar Bullet possesses a power that even the Time Dragon Breath of a Bronze Dragon does not have.

Rosen carefully attached the Dragon King's Roar to his Source Hunting Belt, the weapon pouch on which he stored his weapons. This was the first time he had ever put it to use. The Dragon King's Wrath was enough to increase his lethality by more than three times.

A moment later, Rosen trembled as he crushed the last orb of light.

He couldn't even imagine what could be more precious than the Dragon King's Wrath.

Looking at the palm-sized Time Tower in his hand, Rosen instantly realized that he had really won the lottery this time.

[Time Tower: A Miracle of Architecture]

[Level: Sequence 5]

[Miracle Attribute: The Tower of Time can grant divinity the Time attribute]

[Miracle Traits: Time Conversion, Time Barrier, Time Regulation, Time Seal, Uniqueness of Heaven and Earth, Eternal Immortality]

It has a total of four Miracle Traits, plus two Miracle Traits that all Miracle Treasures possess.

Strangely enough, the Sea God's Ring does not possess the two characteristics of being unique in the universe and eternally indestructible.

Therefore, Rosen suspects that the Poseidon Ring may need to collect other fragments of the Poseidon Ring to become a truly complete miracle treasure.

The Time Tower's time transformation can convert ordinary spiritual crystals into time-attribute spiritual crystals.

The Time Barrier can form a powerful defense that is almost impossible for even Sequence 3 to break through.

As for time manipulation, time inside the Time Tower can be slowed down by five times or sped up by five times.

Finally, the Time Seal is its most powerful feature.
Whether it's life or anything else, as long as it falls into the Time Tower and isn't below Sequence 3, it can maintain whatever state it enters indefinitely. Even if an ordinary person loses their head and dies the next second, the severed head can live forever in the Time Tower.

Miracle traits vary in strength; the first three are abilities inherent to the Tower of Time itself.

Only the seal of time is the most essential characteristic that was born with this miraculous building.

Rosen placed the Tower of Time in the Divine Realm. Since wonder buildings do not occupy skill slots in the Noble Sequence, they can still be perfectly integrated into the Divine Realm. Therefore, the strength of the Divine Realm is definitely a crucial factor in the strength of the Divine Realm.

Those titled lords are far stronger than ordinary demigod nobles, and their respective territories must contain many wonders.

Rosen sat at the top of the Time Tower, with the bronze clock at the top of the tower beneath his feet.

The Dragon Blood Bottle appeared in his hand, now containing the bloodlines of two Beast Kings.

They are the Sea Dragon King (Sequence 6) and the Bronze Dragon (Sequence 5).

The blood of the Sea Dragon King was enough to form a complete bloodline, while the blood of the Bronze Dragon was slightly less, because the Dragon Blood Bottle had only drawn a portion of the blood at the time. Later, the Bronze Dragon was trapped in the Stomach of Gluttony, and he was unable to send the Dragon Blood Bottle inside to draw more blood.

Therefore, the Bronze Dragon's bloodline was incomplete, but he did discover another hidden function of the Dragon Blood Bottle because of it.

That is, consuming a complete dragon bloodline can replenish those incomplete dragon bloodlines.

Rosen infused it with spiritual power, and the blood of the Sea Dragon King was quickly transformed into the blood of the Bronze Dragon.

The original Bronze Dragon bloodline was about 40% complete, but now it has been restored to 60%.

If it could be completed to 100%, it would be enough to recreate the Milburn family.

Rosen already possesses the Nightmare Slime bloodline, so he cannot integrate the Bronze Dragon bloodline into the Extraordinary Source. However, he can continuously strengthen this bloodline with the help of the Dragon Blood Bottle, and use it to paint a second self-portrait when he becomes a demigod.

However, this requires him to slay many more dragons in the future.

This trip through the Time Nest was truly exhausting. Now, after the initial excitement of taking stock of the spoils, I suddenly feel incredibly tired.

Rosen slept all day at Rose Castle in Marthadora to recharge and prepare for a good period of relaxation.

After searching through the Thunder Empire's virtual network, Rosen found a good place.

Most of the nobles in the Thunder Empire are photographers, so the Thunder Empire's film industry is very strong.

Even the most ordinary movies can create an immersive experience.

Even slightly better movies allow viewers to immerse themselves in the experience through a virtual world.

Even the highest-quality movies can be transformed into spiritual realms without exception.

Of course, the highest-quality films are difficult to complete by cinematographers alone; they also require the coordination of a director, as well as the cooperation of screenwriters and actors. Even within Thunder Empire, there aren't many films of this type.

Rosen wasn't interested in the highest-grade films, but rather in films made by mid-range cinematographers on their own.

This type of film does not involve actors or plot, so it does not require the assistance of other sequences.

The films are composed entirely of landscapes from around the world. Through these films, people can enjoy various beautiful scenery and legendary natural wonders from all over the world from the comfort of their homes. This is the type of natural wonder film that Lawson is interested in.

Natural wonders refer to inexplicable landscapes that occur in nature.

For example, mirages on the surface of the spirit world are the most common yet most elusive natural wonders.

There are also black holes that appear out of nowhere in the ocean, and moonlight that is brighter than sunlight in a certain part of the sky during the day.

These kinds of natural wonders are not only beautiful, but also usually contain various mysterious forces.

Painters love to capture the essence of natural wonders because only they can perfectly replicate the mysterious power they possess.

However, the appearance of natural wonders is elusive, so photographs of natural wonders taken by photographers around the world become a source of inspiration for most painters. Thunder Empire is currently hosting a film festival about natural wonders.

After booking his tickets online, Rosen went directly to the Wizard Tower and was teleported to the Mysterious Island.

Mysterious Island is an island in a lake, the largest inland lake island in the Thunder Empire.

Within a radius of tens of thousands of miles, countless film and television cities have been built.

At the largest film and television city on Mysterious Island, Lan Yi City, Rosen paid another fee at the Wizard Tower after his teleportation ended.

Half an hour later, Rosen arrived at the tallest observation tower in Lanyi City with a tourist map of the city.

Looking around, the entire Lanyi City seemed to be in a mythical legend.

All the buildings in the city are shrouded in mystery and are masterpieces of architects. It is no wonder that Mysterious Island can attract artists from countries large and small around the Thunder Principality. Living here is like being in paradise for artists.

Rosen couldn't resist activating the photographic ability of the Hunter's Eye, preserving everything he saw in the virtual world.

Although one can only replicate their form, it is difficult to capture the spirit of these artworks in the virtual world through photography.

But he is still a painter, and it's only a matter of time before he can add the spirit to his paintings.
