Only I Have the Law: A Fantasy Daily Life

Chapter 99 Adventure Rating: [Cosmic Epic]

Compared to petting a cat.

Right now, he's quite curious about the effects of Dragon's Might.

Having passed the leopard cat, he began an interesting experiment in the mountains, using the little time he had left to use his transformation skill.

The remaining time for [Transform into a Dragonborn] is slipping away like sand in an hourglass.

Chen Baiyu didn't delay any longer and moved.

Like the most astute hunters, they began their search in this remote and untouched mountain forest.

His movements were extremely fast, yet they carried a precise purpose.

He first found an old pine tree, under which a group of busy ants were gathered.

With a slight thought, a faint trace of dragon might spread out like ripples.

In an instant, the once orderly ant colony was plunged into a huge panic. The worker ants dropped the food scraps they were carrying and scurried around like headless flies, even colliding with each other; the soldier ants raised their mandibles, but were trembling, as if they had sensed the impending doom of a natural enemy.

"It works, and its effect on insects seems particularly strong, almost to the point of causing a collapse of order."

Chen Baiyu noted down his observations and quickly left.

Then he found a wild rabbit munching on grass in the bushes.

The rabbit's long ears twitched, showing great alertness.

When Chen Baiyu focused a slightly stronger dragon's might on it, the rabbit froze, completely unaware that the grass in its mouth had fallen out.

Its ruby-like eyes were filled with extreme fear, its body trembled violently, but its limbs seemed to be nailed to the spot by invisible nails, and it could not even make an instinctive attempt to escape.

She could only stand there limply, letting out faint, desperate sobs.

"For small mammals, the effect is repressive rigidity and fear."

Chen Baiyu concealed his breathing.

As if granted a pardon, the hare instantly unleashed unprecedented speed, fleeing like a madman, as if it would be devoured if it hesitated for even a second.

He found another grey magpie preening its feathers on a branch.

As the dragon's might swept past, the magpie let out a shrill cry and fell directly from the branch. Fortunately, just before hitting the ground, it flapped its wings and struggled to take flight, wobbling and escaping into the distance, its cry filled with panic.

The scope of the experiment continued to expand: a viper lurking under a rock curled up in fright, hissing threateningly but daring not to attack; several forest frogs jumped into the stream but forgot to swim and were almost swept away by the current; even a squirrel that was gnawing on a tree trunk was so frightened that it slipped off the tree and curled up in the fallen leaves, covering its head...

The results were remarkable, without exception.

All living beings, regardless of size or ferocity, displayed a primal fear and awe upon sensing that oppressive aura that seemed to emanate from the pinnacle of life.

Due to limitations in time and space resources, it is impossible to conduct experiments on larger organisms.

Because after the leopard cat leaves, it becomes very difficult to find more, fiercer, and larger wild animals in this forest.

After all, Mount Lu is not some remote, untouched mountain forest; it has been overdeveloped by humans to some extent.

The leopard cat is something that can only be described as cute in his eyes; an ordinary person could easily deal with it by simply wearing a stab-proof vest.

Actually, it's considered one of the more ferocious and larger wild animals in this mountain forest.

Although Chen Baiyu felt it was a bit of a pity, he didn't care too much about it.

After I finish my work and return to Sichuan, there are plenty of large, remote forests there, and it's not impossible to find tigers and bears there.

There will be plenty of opportunities to experiment in due time.

Wait until the time is up.

Chen Baiyu stopped the experiment.

He already had a certain understanding of the dragon's might that came with the Dragonborn state.

First, the range is only about five meters around the body.

Second.

Compared to its own nascent, intimidating aura that could frighten vicious dogs, this dragon's might was far more powerful and domineering.

From tiny insects to small mammals.

Regardless of whether they have a brain or not, or even whether they have feelings that can be called fear, they will be affected by this special kind of deterrence.

That was not simply the aura of a ferocious beast, but a deeper, more ancient instinct, ingrained in the genes, of surrendering to the supreme being.

That power—the ability to subdue even the most unruly wild predators with the mere release of a breath, without the need for action or words—carries a chilling sense of control.

Compared to another similar skill that comes with equipment, "The Lingering Power of the Lost Monkey King," Dragon's Might has both advantages and disadvantages.

Dragon's Might can be used freely and without limit during the transformation period, and it can intimidate any creature regardless of its species, whether or not those creatures have the intelligence to understand what fear is.

The lingering power of the Lost Monkey King can only be used three times a day, and it is restricted to primates with lower mental attributes than Chen Baiyu.

However, the lingering effects of the Lost Monkey King are conceptual and domineering. It forcefully severs all the victim's perception and control abilities, causing them to instantly enter a state of amnesia or shutdown.

The dragon's might can only intimidate and frighten creatures; if one has enough courage, one can still break through that fear.

Furthermore, its coverage distance is far less than the lingering power of the Lost Monkey King.

While pondering this...

Chen Baiyu, who was strolling in the woods, suddenly stopped in his tracks.

Because the system's voice sounded again.

【drop! 】

[Settlement complete. Currently listing the host's epic adventures...]

"At least there's a response, so it's not entirely unreliable after all."

Chen Baiyu looked at the bright sun overhead and shook his head helplessly.

The settlement was completed in the morning, but it wasn't finished until noon.

Honestly, you really need to clean up the memory or optimize the algorithm. It's even slower than a thin and light laptop that's loaded with a legendary web game, the 360 ​​suite, and a bunch of desktop pets.

The moment Chen Baiyu saw that the settlement time was unknown that morning, he was prepared for the possibility that this useless system would be stuck forever because of the settlement.

after all.

He never had high expectations for this system that was good at nothing.

Having already achieved so much, enough to easily reach the pinnacle of any field. Fortunately…

The system isn't that useless.

next moment.

The system's audio continues unaffected.

It began to reverberate in his mind in a flat, yet epic, tone:

【'Starfall Catastrophe': Deep within the northern icy plains, the host single-handedly encountered and defeated a colossal crystal beast of calamity that had fallen from the heavens. At that moment, the icy valley was torn apart, and the aurora borealis dimmed. With the 'Annihilation Nova' spell, which you had not yet fully mastered, you drained the magical energy within a hundred miles of your body, shattering the beast's core. The aftershocks froze three rampaging elemental lords, indirectly saving the human settlement at the foot of the mountain.】

Chen Baiyu paused, as if a shattered illusion flashed before his eyes: a biting cold wind, a roaring crystalline monster, and the all-consuming light and cold when the spell erupted.

There aren't many details.

Only a few blurry images flashed by.

Just like when doing a mission on the Great Wall, the system, while spouting nonsense, also likes to fill in its own set of worldviews.

They instilled in him that incredibly realistic imagery.

It was as if he had actually experienced it all.

Chen Baiyu had seen this experience in the character of Eldrin in the script and understood that it was not something that actually happened.

But I still subconsciously touched my chest, where a faint phantom pain seemed to be coming from.

Then, the system continued without stopping:
【'Echoes of the Abyss': At the request of the Dwarven royal family, you ventured into the world rift 'Forgefire Abyss' to retrieve the sacred relic 'Heart of the Mountains' stolen from the Abyss. During this time, you were besieged by an army of spirits. You constructed the 'Wall of Kadas' and held out for seven days and seven nights. At the final moment, you saw through the Abyss Lord's whispered manipulations and countered with a Mind Blast, plunging him into eternal slumber. The Dwarven Kingdom bestows upon you the title 'Friend of the Mountains' and promises you eternal friendship.】

['The Mystery of the Thousand Towers': In the magical city of Ys, you outmaneuvered all others in the once-in-a-millennium 'Labyrinth of Truth,' unlocking the twelve puzzles set by the ancient elves. Ultimately, in the Hall of Choice at the heart of the labyrinth, you relinquished the opportunity to touch the 'Codex of Omniscience,' instead rescuing a rival trapped in the rift of time—the future Archmage Melra. This act is considered one of the noblest deeds in the history of magic, establishing your impeccable reputation.]

['Whispers of the Past': While exploring an ancient ruin that has surfaced due to geological changes in the southern seas, you inadvertently triggered the remnants of a forbidden existence far older than modern civilization. Indescribable whispers flooded your mind, attempting to distort your perception and physical form. With unwavering willpower, you fought against them and forcibly sealed the passage before utterly losing yourself. Although you successfully escaped, for months afterward, the rhythm of the tides and certain geometric patterns would occasionally trigger mild dizziness and auditory hallucinations—faint aftershocks from something long since vanished on the other side of deep space.]

【…】

A series of glorious, magnificent, and even heavy "deeds" were coldly spat out by the system. Each one was enough to be written into an epic poem, but at this moment they were simply listed like a resume.

Chen Baiyu stood still.

Quietly listen to the drama queen system's narration.

For each story that is listed, the system will input several frames of related images that appear to be real into his mind.

But the gentle breeze blowing through the mountains and forests brings the fresh scent of earth and vegetation.

This formed a strange and absurd contrast with the grand, life-and-death adventures in his mind.

Everything clearly reminded him that he hadn't transmigrated yet.

From the very beginning, he never left the planet that had nurtured him for over twenty years.

He was probably not as miserable as Li Huowang, who was simultaneously in two worlds and couldn't tell who he was.

Chen Baiyu thought.

The system is the one that's gone mad, not him.

He played the role of Eldrin with great dedication on set, and Eldrin's remarkable life was indeed legendary, but that was just an experience in the story.

If Chen Baiyu hadn't repeatedly studied the script and the original work, she might have been fooled by the system's epic tone and incredibly realistic visuals.

Chen Baiyu had serious doubts.

The reason the system gets stuck in the settlement process for so long is to use the limited computing power and functions remaining after the damage to fabricate these incredibly realistic memory scenes.

While thinking.

The system has finished telling the last two adventure stories:
['Slaying the Dragon at Kuanglu': Before choosing Kuanglu in Jiuchuan as your place of seclusion, this land was not as peaceful and serene as it is today. A vicious dragon calling itself "Lord Xunyang" lurked in the deep pools of the mountains, stirring up storms, devouring people and livestock. Its poisonous miasma polluted the streams, and its scales and armor were impervious to swords and spears, causing immense suffering to the villagers. You found its lair, fought it fiercely for three days, summoned heavenly lightning to shatter its protective scales, and finally nailed its massive body to the beautiful peak with the 'Sword in the Staff,' restoring peace to Kuanglu. The place where it perished was later called 'Nine Heavens Pool' by the villagers, and its waters remain clear and sweet to this day, considered an auspicious place.]

【'The Last Teaching': In the secluded land of 'Nine Rivers and Lushan Mountain,' you imparted all your knowledge to an abandoned orphan, guiding her to recognize the immense power within herself and teaching her courage and responsibility. You laid the foundation for her, honing her talents. She ultimately grew into 'Humanity's Strongest Female Warrior,' Frilu, who ended the chaos of the world and ushered in a new era. This is the final chapter of your epic tale, and the beginning of a new legend.】

Since then.

The system has finally completed a summary of Aldrin's life.

These earth-shattering events were now being meticulously and thoroughly attributed by the system to "an actor who had just been using his dragon might to scare ants and rabbits."

This feeling...

It's really hard to describe.

Chen Baiyu has a lot to complain about.

but……

whee.

Red Zhong's boss played well!
I believed it, I believed it all!

Chen Baiyu chose to believe without hesitation.

"I'm supposed to play along, pretending not to see, forcing someone who loves you to improvise."

Humming.

Chen Baiyu waited expectantly for the system's next message.

Rewards are calculated based on the epic level of the adventure.

Then there's no need to say more!
Yes!

I did all of this!
Don't take advantage of me, bastard!

I am the Friend of the Mountains, the Scourge-Crystal Shatterer, the Ender of Abyssal Whispers, the Unlocker of the Thousand-Tower Labyrinth, the Purifier of Kuanglu, the Oath-Binder of Dragons, the Bedrock of Legends, the Wayfarer Between Realms, and the Living Chronicle of a Fading Age…

Legendary mage Chen Eldrin White Elm!
Come on!

The system then issued a timely statement:
【drop! 】
