Only I Have the Law: A Fantasy Daily Life

Chapter 205 The Golden Eyes That Never Die
Chen Baiyu stared at the line of text that appeared in the system in his mind, his brows furrowing slightly.

He had just finished watching the first six episodes of "The Buried Hero" and was looking forward to seeing the hilarious comments from netizens for some amusement when the system notification came crashing down without warning.

This "personal epic" sounds impressive, but considering the short drama he had just watched and the system notification that "the reclusive mage in Lushan moves stars with his fingertips, and his robes before the Fallen Dragon Cliff surge with thunder," it's hard to believe.

Then I recalled that the reason I went to Lushan to film a short drama was because the system issued a mission called "An Epic Adventure Begins with You".

The directionality couldn't be clearer.

The personal epic the system mentioned is the legendary mage Eldrin, whom he played in the short drama!

The so-called "singing to all spirits" refers to the moment when the short drama he participated in filming was officially launched and seen by a large number of viewers.

Chen Baiyu skillfully figured out what the system was trying to say under its chuunibyou (middle school syndrome) tone.

Based on his experience...

The next step should be to issue the task.

So he continued to stare at the words, "All who praise your name are seeds of faith!"

Faith? Seeds?
This doesn't sound like something as simple as "an actor gaining fame."

Chen Baiyu was deep in thought.

The system's voice continued.

The seed of faith has sprouted!

[Detection of latent dragon bloodline and resonance with nascent faith within the host]

[All eyes are focused on the name of Aldrin, a torrent of conviction is surging along the astral trajectory!]

Chen Baiyu suddenly froze!
It wasn't because he immediately understood the system's meaning, but because before he could react, he discovered a familiar yet unfamiliar power suddenly appearing within his body.

It was familiar because it was exactly the same special energy that filled his body when he used the Dragonborn Avatar skill.

The reason it was unfamiliar was that it didn't emerge from his body when he used the Dragonborn form, but rather appeared out of thin air from the outside and poured into his body, transforming into some kind of latent essence.

He wanted to vaguely explore the source of this power, to figure out if it was similar to the visualization method of creating something from nothing.

But before he could experience it more carefully.

This continuous power was like a switch that had been turned on.

It became even stronger.

"Uh……!"

A suppressed growl escaped from Chen Baiyu's throat.

His pain tolerance has improved considerably.

However, this sudden change caught him off guard, causing him to make a sound almost instinctively.

His body tensed up instinctively.

To prevent his current terrifying power from accidentally damaging the sofa he was sitting on, he immediately stood up and straightened his body.

He carefully observed the changes.

I felt that foreign force, as if it were formed from billions of tiny stardust particles, rushing in wildly.

Then it collided violently with some special, scorching power within him.

It's like pouring boiling gasoline on dry firewood!
Dramatic changes occurred in the next moment.

A burning sensation shot through his spine as if struck by lightning, and scaly golden lines appeared uncontrollably at the corners of his eyes.

This is a dormant force surging within me.

And this force was not unfamiliar to him either.

That is the [Dragonborn - Stage I] that I obtained after taking time out to complete another task while completing the Lushan job change task.

now.

This skill is automatically triggered by some unknown force.

Chen Baiyu could sense that this time was different from when he had used his skills voluntarily before.

That force, which seemed to be faith, was clearly changing something as it kept flowing in.

The way the magic of transforming into a dragonborn ability operates within the body seems to be different from how it used to be.

then.

He subconsciously allowed the nascent Yang spirit to partially detach from his physical body, and then observed everything happening in his body from a third-person perspective.

Because in this state, he can think deeply and has a stronger ability to observe.

under these circumstances.

He could see the golden lines beneath the skin.

The golden scale-like patterns that used to only appear faintly during transformation have become even clearer now, as if they have been illuminated!
And these lines don't just appear at the corners of the eyes.

It also spreads upwards to the temples and downwards along the cheekbones to the chest.

It became a tattoo that radiated a halo.

at the same time.

His golden vertical pupils shone brightly at that moment!

Deep within his pupils, it seemed as if liquid gold was boiling.

Like a burning ember.

Chen Baiyu's nascent Yang spirit could vaguely sense a power that seemed to captivate the soul simply by staring into those eyes.

While thinking.

He also noticed significant changes behind his ears and on both sides of his neck.

I remember that when I first used the skill, there was nothing unusual about these places.

but now.

Chen Baiyu could clearly feel a slight tingling sensation coming from the side of her neck and behind her ears.

Because the nascent form of the Yang God has not completely separated from the physical body, he can still control his body.

It felt like controlling a marionette.

It's like playing games while wearing low-quality wireless Bluetooth headphones.

There is a slight delay.

This level of power is generally sufficient for ordinary people, but it's not enough for Chen Baiyu.

Because this delay only makes a difference for someone with Chen Baiyu's level of reaction ability, which is a very small time interval.

For ordinary people, it's basically imperceptible.

Of course.

Ordinary people don't have a Yang spirit; at most, they only experience some mental fluctuations.

In the midst of random thoughts.

In this state, he subconsciously controlled his body and raised his hand.

When you touch it with your fingertips, you'll find that the skin there is no longer smooth; it has become a layer of extremely fine, cool, tiny bumps.

Although it was just a pattern and not real scales, it already had the feel of real scales.

Obviously.

He now looks more like a dragon, covered by more prominent inhuman features.

His golden, vertical pupils were cold and full of power.

His presence became extremely oppressive, like a humanoid beast that had sheathed its claws but still exuded a terrifying aura.

Although it has not yet developed the distinctive features of Western dragons.

It had no dragon horns, nor did it grow wings.

But anyone who comes across him now will subconsciously think that this guy is definitely the offspring of a dragon that made a mistake and was left behind by another species.

I don't see any other possibilities.

Thinking.

Chen Baiyu couldn't help but frown.

There were no tasks assigned to us.

It's clear that I didn't bathe in the so-called dragon blood again with the system's approval.

However, the bloodline concentration obviously became much higher after the transformation.

It no longer seems to be so thin that it's almost nonexistent.

Is this a windfall?

Or is it a continuation of that original mission?

Fortunately, the system quickly began to explain. [Beep!]

[Dragonborn bloodline detected to receive additional nourishment and resonance from the Seed of Faith!]

[The Dragonborn (Stage I) form has undergone adaptive evolution!]

[Dragon descendant traits deepened! Bloodline activity increased!]

The skill 'Dragonborn' has been upgraded to Stage II, its duration has been extended to fifteen minutes, and the boost to all attributes has been increased to 25%.

Upon hearing this, he clenched his fists and narrowed his eyes.

The data stream exploded in his mind, undoubtedly confirming his guess.

The truth is simple.

The audience's excitement over "The Buried Hero" was now being treated by the system as some kind of faith, and then directly and without hesitation, transformed into fuel for tempering the dragon bloodline.

This allowed his skills to be upgraded.

While thinking.

An aura far more savage than when he first transformed seemed to emanate from him.

Platinum seemed to sense something and suddenly raised its head from the edge of the food bowl.

Having experienced a temporary increase in intelligence, it was now even more acutely aware of the threat it felt.

It instinctively looked at its owner warily, letting out an uneasy low growl.

It even lowered its body slightly in alertness, as if it were no longer facing its familiar master, but some kind of apex predator from ancient times.

In fact, its feeling was correct.

Chen Baiyu is now more dangerous than any apex predator.

Even if Chen Baiyu were placed in the ancient era when dinosaurs still existed, he would still be able to stand at the top of the food chain with his abilities and physical qualities, becoming the apex predator among apex predators.

Chen Baiyu stood still, feeling the surging and roaring power deep within his body.

He realized that the changes he had undergone were not just a 25% increase in all attributes, nor were they simply a 15-minute increase in skill duration.

This is just a superficial change.

He can sense something deeper.

For example, he could feel as if his muscle fibers were being injected with liquid metal, resulting in a terrifying increase in density and toughness.

He could still feel that the nascent bio-force field he had just mastered seemed to have become more solid and its operation more seamless in his current state as a Dragonborn II.

This is truly an all-around improvement.

With the slight evolution of his life form, everything about him is being improved.

Chen Baiyu could even sense the emotional fluctuations of the people around him with his outward-extended divine sense, something he could never have done before.

That invisible divine sense could only coldly outline the contours and intensity of a spiritual existence, barely allowing him to determine whether someone's spirit had disappeared.

But at the moment.

His divine sense suddenly became more refined and vivid, undoubtedly because his dragon-descendant form granted him additional functions.

He could sense the irritation emanating from the downstairs neighbors arguing over trivial matters, and he could sense the sweet excitement and restlessness of the young couple upstairs who were up all night...

He could still sense the lingering, faint sadness emanating from Aunt Zhang Yiyu in the next room as she lay on her side in bed, gazing at the old photograph of her deceased husband on the headboard…

These are all clearly discernible emotional fluctuations.

Like a profusion of colors, it instantly filled his perceived world.

It filled Chen Baiyu with a sense of novelty.

It's a rather interesting feeling, as if he has become a god who can see into everyone's mind.

Upon sensing Zhang Yiyu's heavy sorrow, Chen Baiyu almost instinctively sent a gentle wisp of her divine sense towards her.

Because he felt he could do something to influence and change this feeling of sadness.

So he tried doing it.

Since developing his extraordinary intuition, he has become accustomed to acting on his instincts like an animal.

then.

He could see it clearly.

His divine sense touched the sorrowful emotions that enveloped Zhang Yiyu.

It was just a very gentle touch.

It was as if a gentle stream had been injected into Zhang Yiyu's suppressed emotions.

at the same time.

Zhang Yiyu's face actually showed some relief, as if she was in a much better mood.

The grief has been changed.

A better mood appeared on her face.

This effect was so immediate that it gave Chen Baiyu a jolt!
He realized it instantly.

This newfound ability of mine goes far beyond simply being able to perceive emotions; it can also touch upon and influence the emotions of others!

This ability is obviously quite interesting.

Countless thoughts sparked in my mind like fireworks.

If developed to a high level, could it influence people's thinking?

Can he calm panic, inspire courage, dismantle hostility, or even... manipulate people's hearts?
Could it even be possible to do whatever one wants, like in those hypnosis films?

Thinking of this, his blood started to rush slightly.

An indescribable sense of excitement surged within me.

This excitement wasn't because I could use hypnosis, but because I had gained another rather interesting ability.

however.

Before this excited thought could unfold further, the surging dragon blood power deep within his body vanished abruptly, like the receding tide.

The oppressive feeling that made the air seem to freeze instantly dissipated.

All the distinctive features and the amplified sense of power throughout the body quickly faded away.

This is the end of my Dragonborn form's duration.

Everything disappeared back into the depths of flesh and blood.

It left him with a vague sense of emptiness.

I thought this amazing ability to sense emotions would disappear along with the Dragonborn form.

The next moment, however, he suddenly froze.

The excited chatter of the couple upstairs contrasted with the irritating noise downstairs that made people frown...

The emotional fluctuations of everyone around him were like background noise, clearly reaching his senses.

It hasn't weakened at all!

This unexpected turn of events caused his pupils to shrink and his heart to leap!
Isn't this an effect of the Dragonborn skill? But he only discovered he had this ability after upgrading the Dragonborn skill.

Therefore, it can only be the effect brought about by this skill.

But now that the skill's duration has ended and he's back to normal, why is the effect of sensing emotions still there?
While thinking.

Chen Baiyu almost immediately looked down, examining her hands, arms, and chest in disbelief.

The skin is smooth and without any scales.

Its body temperature also returned to the normal human body temperature.

The characteristics of the dragon bloodline have indeed completely disappeared.

however.

When he subconsciously looked in the mirror and saw his own eyes reflected there.

He was stunned.

Then, incredulously, he took a sudden step and strode to the full-length dressing mirror in the living room.

The mirror did not reflect dark eyes.

Instead, they were a pair of golden eyes that still shimmered with a molten gold luster, with pupils split open like vertical slits!
The cold, majestic gold color formed an incredibly eerie contrast with his normal human face.

"Did I wander into the wrong Dragon Raja movie set?"

"This is... the golden eyes that will never be extinguished!"

Chen Baiyu murmured to herself unconsciously.
