Chapter 2: New Century (Epilogue)
And according to the castle guards’ reports.
Connie’s appetite has also been increasing.
It’s just like a mother dragon in lactation! But it seems impossible to stop now…
Fortunately, a dragon’s lactation period is time-limited, usually lasting three months. When spring ends and summer arrives, everything should return to normal.
And then, the lactation period will appear again next spring.
This will continue in a cycle…
Before that.
Xi Wei could only accept the production of more and more dragon milk.
All of this was his own doing!
He should have just used a feeding bottle from the beginning…
Now it’s too late, he’s having problems with a buffet.
“Ahem,” Xi Wei cleared his throat to ease the awkward atmosphere.
He then stroked Connie’s little head and comforted her:
“Don’t worry, Connie. I plan to promote this delicious milk among all the maids, so you won’t have to worry about inflation. We will definitely not waste food and ensure all the precious food is consumed!”
“Yes, Connie.”
Sakura also agreed.
She was a very frugal person before, so she fully supported Xi Wei’s concept of not wasting anything.
She earnestly assured Connie:
“Don’t worry, I will definitely finish this bottle of milk, not a drop left!”
She thought these words would deeply move Connie.
Who knew Connie’s face would gradually turn red like a monkey’s backside.
“You… you guys…”
She was extremely ashamed and angry, covered her face, and fled in a panic. With a “bang,” she smashed through the office’s floor-to-ceiling window, flapped her wings, and disappeared into the sky.
“Your Majesty, she, she is…”
Sakura scratched her head, unsure what she had said wrong. Was it wrong not to waste? But even though there was a lot of milk, it shouldn’t be wasted!
“Ahem, it’s nothing, it’s normal. You know, dragons always have a rebellious phase.” Xi Wei acted like an experienced person who understood everything, spouting nonsense:
“Back in the day, I went through a similar period. I was young then, and I always dreamed of the girl I liked at night, and I would draw maps on the sheets in the morning.”
“Draw maps?”
Sakura was stunned again.
“Ah, it’s a strategic map, you know…”
Sakura nodded vaguely.
But she really didn’t understand…
…
Next, to change the subject.
Xi Wei started to work with Sakura.
He spent the entire morning processing the accumulated documents in Winter City.
He wasn’t sure if it was an illusion, but ever since the Winter organization was dealt with, the turmoil in the Wintery Empire had suddenly subsided, and rebellions in various regions had become very rare.
As soon as this thought arose.
The system’s prompt sound suddenly rang out.
[Villain Mission 1: Invade the Medon Empire and eliminate reactionary nobles – Completed]
[Villain Mission 2: Invade the Karari Empire and eliminate reactionary nobles – Completed]
[Villain Mission 3: As a villainous emperor, you have gained a large amount of territory through numerous wars. The larger the territory, the more likely it is to cause trouble. Please consolidate your imperial throne – Completed (Current Status: Calm and Peaceful)]
These were the missions that refreshed when he obtained the Holy Spirit Horn.
After the missions were issued, the system fell silent.
And no matter how Xi Wei called out to it, it didn’t respond much.
Only when the players’ version was updated did the system pop up, and then it immediately fell silent again. Xi Wei felt that the system was gradually reducing its presence, or perhaps the system was busy with something?
He wasn’t from a system wholesale company.
So he didn’t really know what the system’s daily routine was.
But there was one thing Xi Wei was very sure of.
That was the system was becoming increasingly strange.
[Host has completed the villain mission and obtained one lottery draw! Do you wish to draw now?]
As Xi Wei’s strength increased.
The difficulty of the missions also gradually increased.
At the same time, regardless of whether the mission reward was a critical hit or not, its quality and importance were gradually increasing.
If Xi Wei were given a hero-grade equipment now, he definitely wouldn’t feel surprised.
He was already a Legendary.
Logically speaking, holding a hero-grade equipment would be somewhat demeaning.
Fortunately, the King of Conquest Long Sword was able to grow, so Xi Wei had no intention of changing weapons. As for the Dragon Crystal Armor, its material was excellent, so he would continue to make do with it.
“Draw now.”
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining ten drops of Divine Power… Ding! This reward was a critical hit, congratulations to the host for obtaining a blank Godhead!]
Huh?
What the heck!
He couldn’t have heard that wrong!
“What did you say!”
Xi Wei exclaimed in his heart: “Godhead!? One piece!?”
How could the system say something so exciting in such a cold tone?
So the Godhead was as common as cabbage?
“Buzz—”
A seven-colored crystal materialized directly above Xi Wei’s sea of consciousness.
Immediately after, a part of all the Divinity on Xi Wei’s body was drawn into the seven-colored crystal.
The red-black was War Divinity, and the milky white was Angel Divinity.
They were like pigments, dyeing the seven-colored crystal with a little color. It was like an employee undergoing their first identity verification registration at a company.
As expected, it was a Godhead.
Xi Wei was stunned.
So he was now a demigod?
That’s not right… He still felt like his strength was only Legendary, with no improvement at all. Then what was this Godhead, was it just a decoration?
[Ding! Please do not be impatient, host!]
[The normal steps to becoming a god are to first ignite the divine fire, temper the divine body with the divine fire, then master the rules to condense the Godhead, and finally raise the divine throne to ascend to the Divine Kingdom and become a deity. The host has only obtained the Godhead in advance, so naturally, there is no improvement in strength. However, the host’s power will gradually transform towards Divinity.]
“Oh.”
Xi Wei’s face fell.
He had been happy for nothing.
Wasn’t this just changing the engine?
His current situation was like a three-wheeled vehicle that had been fitted with a jet engine, but unfortunately, it didn’t have a rocket’s outer shell or the fuel needed for a rocket launch. However, because his engine had been changed, he had become more advanced and was no longer an ordinary three-wheeled vehicle…
[Please do not feel disappointed, host. Although in the short term, the Godhead does not bring as much improvement as drops of Divine Power, in the long run, your path to becoming a god will have one less step, and your own rules are gradually taking shape…]
Xi Wei calmed his emotions upon hearing this and began to ponder seriously while stroking his chin.
The system said that his rules were gradually taking shape.
This made him think of the War Divinity and Angel Divinity that had already been absorbed by the Godhead.
Did this mean that whatever Divinity he obtained in the future, the Godhead would derive rules from it? Then what kind of god would he become in the end? A jack-of-all-trades god who knew everything but was proficient in nothing?
He also asked the system about these questions.
But the system had fallen silent again.
No matter how much he called out, there was no response.
It was as if the system that had just come out to give rewards was just his illusion…
