My wife, who's in a vegetative state, please stop eavesdropping on my thoughts.

However, the next few forbidden items are the real big deal.

【The Reverse Flower (493) → (465): A new feature has been added. The Reverse Flower will now activate clockwise. While in this state, nothing will be paused, but the flow of your supernatural power will be accelerated several times.】

Upon seeing the new features for those going against the tide, Weiss was slightly taken aback.

He quickly realized it.

Clearly, this ability was not granted out of thin air by the Book of Worlds, just like the special function that slowed down thinking before.

The Book of the World cannot conjure up a forbidden object with an ability or characteristic that it did not originally possess.

All it can do is reveal and activate the development potential that is inherent in the underlying logic of forbidden objects in advance.

In other words, both the ability to accelerate clockwise and the ability to slow down one's own thinking are inherent qualities of those who go against the grain; they simply haven't developed them yet.

"Flowing clockwise, without pausing other things, only accelerating my own extraordinary power?"

After pondering for a while, Weiss's expression gradually turned to surprise.

This entirely new usage significantly expands the overall potential for utilizing time management skills!

If you simultaneously activate both reverse and forward time acceleration for yourself, and then combine that with the forced slowing of thought, it's practically equivalent to a miniature time realm, rather than just a bluff to pause the forces of nature...

For example, only your actions are sped up by 2x, while everything else remains unchanged.

With this ability, the possibilities for developing techniques are simply too numerous to count!

At the very least, compressing the charging time of ultimate skills can only be considered a beginner-level technique.

Next...

As for the other few forbidden items—

【The Gift of Greed (290) → (290): It once pierced through the Dark Realm】

【Paradise (188) → (188)】

Despite the earth-shattering battle, the two forbidden objects that exerted the most force remained unchanged.

The gift of greed is somewhat understandable.

After all, breaking through the Black Realm was already the most terrifying highlight.

In comparison, defeating a Sun Princess is hardly a world-renowned or exaggerated achievement.

But, the amusement park...

This is something that Weiss finds hard to understand.

Despite having already escaped the Caged Bird's relentless pursuit by developing his teleportation ability, and even instantly reaching the top of the Snow Palace Trial, which shocked the entire city, he ultimately failed to cause any change in the rankings.

Weiss vaguely sensed that this was definitely not because the previous 187 forbidden items were completely unshakeable.

Rather, it suggests that perhaps...

Even if he developed such an abnormal teleportation ability.

However, it is still not as powerful as the ability developed by the previous owner of the amusement park...

In other words, the number 188 in Paradise was actually assigned to it by the previous owner, and it has no connection with the blank Paradise when I first got it.

No wonder I always felt that the difficulty level of the park didn't quite match its number...

I can only study it slowly when I have time later.

Unlike before, Weiss did not stop after inspecting the entire park, but continued to scan the last line.

Finally...

Number 17 —

North wind!!!

Perfect!!!

There's not much to say about this; it's simply invincible.

It's the kind of happiness that makes you laugh in your dreams.

.

—The Lunette family mansion.

A large entourage of carriages pulled up in front of the mansion.

The young swordsman, accompanied by Aunt White Elune and several maids, returned to the enormous castle mansion after a week's absence.

In this Snow Palace Trial, after Weiss made a shocking first ascent to the summit, Bingfei climbed to the finish line of the 100-kilometer course in less than half an hour.

The two not only achieved the feat of reaching the summit in the same era, but also on the same day...

The combined effect of these two events created a sensation that nearly pushed the entire royal city to the brink of chaos and disorder.

So, after waiting for a long time in the luxury suite without seeing Whis come down the ice stairs, the little swordsman made a quick decision to take Elune and Aunt White back to the mansion.

She feared that if she waited any longer, by the time Weiss officially left the Night Patrol headquarters, the entire street would be packed with onlookers who had come to see what was happening, and at that point, they would truly be unable to move an inch.

Moreover, this battle turned Weiss from an unknown to the focus of the entire city, with his popularity skyrocketing to a dangerous level, making it no longer safe for him to stay in the hotel.

After a brief discussion with Aunt Bai, she and Aunt Bai decided to evacuate first, just in case.

Time slipped into the dead of night before we knew it.

Weiss still hasn't returned.

Emily, on the other hand, ran back to the mansion crying first.

As soon as she stepped into the hall, she threw herself into Cassandra's open arms, burying her face in her chest and sobbing quietly.

"Oh dear, what happened? Were you bullied at the academy?"

The young swordsman pretended to know nothing about what had happened during the day.

She gently stroked Emily's soft, light purple hair, behaving like a kind and caring older sister, having already reduced her imposing aura to a minimum.

As expected, Emily's illusions about Corona, the academic leader, have been completely shattered.

Her idol, whom she had worshipped for two years, turned out to be the Sun Princess, one of the Ten Kings of the Divine Court...

It will probably take several months for them to recover from this.

Emily sobbed in Cassandra's arms for a long time, until she had soaked the fabric of Cassandra's clothes, before she gradually stopped.

Then, she raised her face, red and swollen from crying, and began to complain haltingly in a very aggrieved tone:

"Sister, do you know that my classmates now all call Weiss 'Dad'?"

"I told them not to call me that, but they insisted, and they even called me 'Auntie'!"

"When I stormed off in anger, they even said goodbye to Auntie, boohoo—"

Cassandra: ......

To be honest, she didn't know how to comment on it anymore.

but--

Everyone, keep the same generational order!!!

.

Meanwhile, above the starry sky platform where the snow ladder trial is located.

As night deepened, Weiss and Bingfei, who had been missing for about seven or eight hours, finally reappeared in everyone's sight.

Because the 25-kilometer-long section below the snow ladder was devastated and extensively fractured by the ultimate clash between Vis and Sun Princess, no other competitors were climbing at this time.

It didn't take long for Weiss and Bingfei to jump down one after the other.

Seeing that Weiss's upper body was completely tattered, a male logistics staff member very considerately jogged over and handed him a brand-new night patrol uniform jacket.

Weiss took it and put it on, nodding his thanks.

Besides these grassroots staff, the night patrol still stands here waiting for them after the snow.

This was the second time Weiss had seen the Night Watch after the snow.

The first time was when we passed each other briefly during a large-scale migration across the border.

Standing face to face at such close range, I could clearly see that her skin was ridiculously white, beyond description as pure white as snow. It exuded a chilling, icy coldness, almost like the cut surface of an ice cube.

However, because the wide white hood covered her completely, Weiss could not see her face clearly except for a small patch of icy white outline around her chin.

After taking a few steps closer during the night patrol, he nodded to Weiss with considerable restraint and politeness.

Then he looked at Bingfei with a relieved expression.

"Congratulations on reaching the top of the Snow Palace Trial! It seems your injuries and condition have been fully recovered. I imagine Lady Snow White has bestowed extremely generous rewards upon you...?"

Faced with the snow woman's question, Ice Queen and Weiss exchanged a knowing glance and simultaneously revealed a knowing expression.

It's obvious that the story was already prepared in advance from above.

"Lady Snow was quite surprised and gave each of us a large pile of Frost Coins. She even personally explained some of the ways to use the secrets to us~~~" These were the words of Ice Princess.

"Hmm, she also boosted our supernatural power in the process, it felt like drinking dozens of bottles of Rank 7 potions in one go. I never expected the legendary Seven Wonders to be so approachable..."

Weiss also cooperated by adopting a flattered expression, his tone conveying just the right amount of gratitude and lingering shock.

Seeing Weiss's exaggerated and mysterious acting, Bingfei secretly poked his waist several times, signaling him to tone it down.

If Lord Snow Queen notices anything amiss, things will be in serious trouble...

However, naturally, since no one has reached the summit for hundreds of years, no matter how elaborate their stories are, no one can expose their fabricated experiences.

The staff members around them simply looked at them with longing and admiration.

However, the expression on the night patrol's face remained unchanged throughout the entire process.

After listening to the two talk silently for a long time.

She slowly turned her head to look at Weiss:

"Mr. Weiss, now that you have achieved first place in this Snow Palace Trial, the Night Patrol will naturally award you the reward. However, the preparation of the Storm Potion takes some time. So, would you like the Night Patrol to personally escort it to the Lunette Mansion in a few days, or will it be directly converted into points for you?"

According to the original rules set by Night Patrol, all ranking rewards for the Snow Palace Trial would not be released until after the entire two-week competition period had ended.

But since Weiss has already taken the lead with an absolute advantage and achieved a perfect score in all aspects, the outcome of this matter is already set in stone, and there is no possibility of any reversal.

Otherwise, it's impossible for someone to be bound to a mysterious system like in those brainless short dramas, where everyone is guaranteed to score 1 point higher than Weiss in every exam. If Weiss climbs 100 kilometers, everyone else will climb 100 kilometers plus 1 meter, right?

Therefore, if we delay issuing it now, it would make it seem like the Night Patrol is up to some kind of conspiracy.

After a moment's consideration, Weiss gave his response.

"Shouldn't you have the Tier 6 Dream Potion in stock? Can I take it now? As for the remaining 50 Tier 7 potions, I'll just exchange them for points."

Anyway, the exchange rate between points and potions is 1:1.

He can make an appointment to customize and pick up the goods at any time if needed, which is safer and more secure.

Let's avoid the ridiculous scenario where a night patrol sends out a team to escort a large reward, only to have it intercepted halfway through.

"Oh, by the way, give Adele the points from the five level 7 potions. Her points from Moonlit City were directly transferred to me."

Upon hearing Weiss's request, Night Patrol nodded.

From every angle, this decision is perfectly reasonable.

She raised her slender, icy-white hand and made a light, sweeping motion in the air, leaving a fleeting trail of pale blue light where her fingertips passed.

The next second, the snowflake brooch in Weiss's pocket suddenly began to vibrate wildly, and a huge amount of points, equivalent to forty-five bottles of seventh-tier potions, were transferred to his account.

Immediately afterwards, Xue Hou instructed the staff beside her to retrieve five bottles of Tier 6 Dream Potion from the headquarters warehouse.

A few minutes later, the staff member jogged back carrying a silver tray with five bottles of dream potion with a pale pink glow neatly arranged on it.

Because of his near-fatal poisoning experience, Weiss carefully examined the item this time, confirming that it was indeed a 6th-tier transcendent fluctuation before cautiously putting it into his pocket.

Holding the huge sum of money, Weiss hadn't yet figured out how to allocate these bottles of Tier 6 Dream Potion.

Should it be used on the natural system first, or on the killing system first?

Well, it's obviously too early to consider these issues now.

Let's wait until all six Secret cards are completely sandified and the seventh-tier Stormwind is fully upgraded before making a decision...

Afterwards, Weiss briefly bid farewell to the Night Patrol Snow Queen and Ice Queen Shiva, then turned and walked into the night wearing the borrowed Night Patrol uniform coat.
