Only I Have the Law: A Fantasy Daily Life

Chapter 112 You're almost chopped into mincemeat!

【drop! 】

[The Dragon Scale Dust activation quest is now available!]

[In accordance with Article #4275319 of the core rules of the protocol, the original activation logic has been abolished, and activation will now be based on specific attributes of the selected host.]

[Scanning...]

[Tag detected: Dragonborn]

[The Dragon Scale Dust quest "Hidden Dragon in the Abyss" has been randomly generated for you based on tags!]

"Is it no longer based on specific professions for activation?"

Chen Baiyu stared at the system prompts, deep in thought.

It would be great if we could activate features related to the "Unique" profession, since the rarity of the "Unique" profession is beyond doubt.

But if he can't do it, Chen Baiyu won't be too disappointed.

after all……

It would be good if it could be activated.

It's definitely better than wearing it on your hand as an accessory all the time.

While thinking.

The system was still talking non-stop.

[Mission Name: Hidden Dragon in the Abyss]

[Quest Content: The sealed blood of the true dragon must be cleansed anew in its slumbering abyss! Sensing the guidance of destiny, journey to the [Blood Cleansing Pool], where the [Sea-Overlord, Minjiang Dragon King] once slumbered in majesty and rested his soul. Hold your breath and enter the abyss, enduring the baptism of the raging torrents in its powerful currents, awakening the dormant essence within your bloodline to activate the dragon scales!]

[Mission Requirements: This is no ordinary deep pool. Only by facing the baptism of its deepest water pressure and being thoroughly immersed in its remaining essence can the dragon's might residing within the token be activated. Carrying any heavy iron objects that isolate the water's spiritual energy (such as the "Crocodile Lungs" which block perception, the "Sea Lizard Eyes" which clumsily obstruct the flow of water, or the "Stone Frog Webs" which disrupt the perception of water veins and agile swimming) is a desecration of the Dragon King's legacy! You must shed your constraints and merge into it in the most harmonious form of a true dragon, like scales conforming to the water's flow!]

[Task Evaluation: Ha! The Blood-Cleansing Pool! What a resounding ancient name! Now? Tsk tsk, only murky water and a few listless carnivorous fish kept by mortals remain. They probably haven't even noticed a fraction of the mystery of this place. The Dragon King's power has long since dissipated into the mortal world like smoke, leaving behind nothing more than a puddle murky and polluted by fate and time! That a true dragon's bloodline needs to dive into such a place to seek resonance? It sounds as absurd and laughable as asking a dragon's descendant to kiss a tadpole's toes!]

[Punishment for mission failure: The Dragon Scale Dust Token enters a deep dormant state, cannot be activated again, and its brilliance is forever extinguished!]

[Quest Success Reward: [Dragon King's Legacy] Gift Pack *1]

[Note: The Destiny Guide has been updated and will provide you with more accurate assistance in finding mission locations!]

[Note: The new version of the Destiny Guide is still in testing. Please set off immediately to avoid missing the guide!]

The system notification gradually faded from Chen Baiyu's mind, leaving behind a task description filled with grand terms such as "Dragon King," "Slumber," "Blood Cleansing Pool," and "Blasphemy," as well as a comment that sounded like a system full of mockery and sarcasm.

As always, you still need to be in sync with the system's radio waves.

The "crocodile's lungs" that isolates perception should be a snorkel; the "sea lizard's eyes" that clumsily obstruct the flow of water should be a mask; and the "stone frog's webbed feet" that disrupts water vein perception and agile swimming should be fins.

A word-for-word analysis confirms that the mission involves diving in a certain body of water, without being allowed to carry any auxiliary equipment.

This was not difficult for Chen Baiyu.

Breathing is the core process for maintaining life activities. Its essence is to obtain oxygen (O) and expel carbon dioxide (CO) through gas exchange, support cellular energy metabolism, regulate the body's acid-base balance, and ensure the normal functioning of organs.

Since her body was filled with magical power, Chen Baiyu no longer needed to breathe; her current breathing was all an act.

In other words.

He can basically stay underwater for as long as he wants.

Although the system's description, which is full of chuunibyou (delusional) elements, doesn't specify which body of water we're going to for unassisted diving, it's unclear.

However, theoretically, as long as he is not thrown into a place where a tsunami is raging or into a high-pressure area thousands of meters below the seabed.

No matter what kind of water he is diving in, it is no problem for him.

The system's tasks have indeed not been particularly difficult; the biggest challenge is simply keeping up with the system's thought process.

Chen Baiyu felt like she was playing a hacked version of a single-player game.

Therefore, he was not too worried about whether he could complete the mission.

He was more concerned about the rewards and punishments this time.

That's right.

This is not a reward, but a punishment. Compared to previous tasks.

This time, an unusual additional penalty has been added.

If you fail, you will never be able to activate Dragon Scale Dust again.

Emmmm......

It's neither painful nor itchy.

It's not a huge price to pay.

If you succeed, you will receive a reward you've never seen before, called the [Dragon King's Legacy Gift Pack].

A large gift package.

As the name suggests, a gift package should contain multiple items together.

According to Chen Baiyu's understanding, this thing should contain many rewards after being opened.

The activation of Dragon Scale Dust should only be one of them.

Think about it this way.

Chen Baiyu couldn't help but feel a bit of anticipation.

I've never seen a reward package like this before; I wonder how many good things I can get from it.

Except these.

The task evaluation is nothing more than a bunch of nonsense from the system to supplement its world view, which does not help or affect the completion of the specific task.

The last sentence, "[Note: The Guidance of Fate has been updated and will provide you with more accurate assistance in finding mission locations!]", is also included.

This made Chen Baiyu start to think.

The last time I used the Guidance of Fate was during the level 5 job change quest, "An Epic Adventure That Begins with You".

The so-called "guidance of destiny" is just a copy of a shady navigation app displayed on his minimap, complete with voice prompts and arrow directions.

Let's put aside whether it's easy to use or not for now.

Chen Baiyu would like to ask, do you really still have the ability to upgrade the navigation system?
Don't install the system.

Don't we understand, we're all family? When you first linked to me, you were practically chopped into mincemeat.

Or to be precise.

The meat sauce isn't that small; you need to use scientific notation to calculate how broken you are. You're even more broken than the meat sauce.

Take a thousand steps back.

If we had the capability, wouldn't it be better to update with more useful features?

Finished complaining.

Chen Baiyu withdrew her gaze from the residential area.

Fine.

At least I don't have to think about it anymore.

Since there's a task, that task should definitely be the priority.

Even though the system's tasks are always so simple they're practically free, and so frequent that there are several a day, Chen Baiyu still won't give up on any of them.

the most important is.

The new version of the Destiny Guide is in testing. The system suggests setting off immediately, and it's best to heed the advice.

What is Li Changhong, that shady middleman? If the mission is delayed because of him, I would kill him a hundred times and still not be satisfied.

While thinking.

He turned and left.

With a slow but purposeful pace, they merged into the scattered crowds on the street, their figures gradually blending into the backdrop of this vast city.
