Take a deep breath...
Take a deep breath...
Luke wasn't sure about his current situation. Not only had he crossed over into the game world of "Epoch," but his game character could also enter the real world.
But, it's normal for game characters to enter the real world.
Oh well, I shouldn't think too much about it.
After all, I've cultivated Clear Sky, a level 120 full-level character!
With a high-level expert like Clear Sky guiding me, my own level will skyrocket. And if anyone bothers me, I'll just use my high-level character to teach them a lesson.
In this world, there aren't many who can match Clear Sky at full level.
Haha...
Luke stood with his hands on his hips on the clock tower, wanting to burst into laughter and mock the incompetence of the entire city.
But then he remembered something and couldn't laugh.
Clear Sky's existence is limited, and once the level reaches 120, it can only be maintained for 10 seconds. At level 100, it's only 10 minutes.
And then it consumes a day's worth of battery.
Stay low-key, stay low-key, even lower-key.
Luke, in Clear Sky's body, made plans for his own strength improvement.
To survive in this world, one must constantly grow stronger.
After searching for a long time without finding any instructions or tips for leveling up his real body, Luke had to look for solutions within the power system of "Epoch."
The power system of "Epoch" is diverse and extremely complex.
It can be broadly divided into five categories: magic, body modification, extraordinary cultivation, machinery, and secret arts.
Each of these categories has several subcategories.
Moreover, there are no clear barriers between the various power systems, and the combination of different power systems can create countless power combinations.
Snow is a product of extraordinary cultivation, a hybrid experiment between humans and the Medusa, an extraordinary creature.
Pisco belongs to body modification, and his two mechanical arms fall under the category of machinery.
As for the game character Clear Sky that Luke has been training, it encompasses all five major power systems.
So, which power system should Luke's real body start with?
In fact, Luke didn't have many choices.
Mages need to start cultivating magic from a young age. For Luke's current age, learning magic would be a bit late.
Body modification provides an immediate boost in strength. If you want to be strong in a certain aspect, you can just change it. Luke even gave Clear Sky a fusion reactor as a heart.
However, in the game, changing things around is easy, and if it fails, you can respawn and try again, at most losing a batch of materials. Now Luke didn't dare to play around with his own body, so he temporarily set it aside.
Extraordinary cultivation. If there is a rejection reaction, it is even more dangerous than body modification. Who knows how many babies died to cultivate one Snow, and she turned out to be a defective product.
Machinery. Luke knows nothing about steam technology or alchemy, so he can't consider it for now.
Finally, the only option left for Luke is secret arts.
Secret arts are a way to obtain abilities through specific rituals and sacrifices.
Low-level secret arts can grant techniques.
High-level secret arts can grant ancient bloodlines.
Clear Sky's enhanced bloodline, the Wings of Time, was obtained through a ritual and sacrifice to the chief god of the elves, granting her a super bloodline.
Luke is very interested in this kind of secret art that allows him to gain power effortlessly.
Coincidentally, there are many secret art instructions in the "Epoch" strategy guide he has saved.
Among them are strategies for obtaining top-level bloodlines.
However, top-level bloodlines require top-level sacrifices.
Luke opened Clear Sky's personal backpack.
Inside were various potions—red bottles, blue bottles—dozens of different status-altering elixirs.
There were also common items and weapons.
What was missing were the materials for secret arts.
All her materials, equipment, potions... were stored in the warehouse.
And the warehouse location in the Cape area...
Luke opened the map of Cape area and found the location where the warehouse should be.
No. 35 Blocking Wind Alley is a harbor warehouse area. Once inside, he needs to find Ron, the warehouse manager.
By speaking with Ron, he can store and retrieve game items.
So, now he will go to Blocking Wind Alley Warehouse to find Ron.
If he can find the items he stored in the game, his real self will skyrocket.
He found the nearest virtual teleport anchor point to Blocking Wind Alley... and teleported.
Luke appeared on the rooftop of a building.
Having virtual teleport anchor points is convenient and saves a lot of travel time. It's just a pity that only Clear Sky can use them, and his real self can't even see them.
Standing at a high point, he assessed the direction and found the location of Blocking Wind Alley.
Let's go...
Smack!
Luke stumbled forward and fell, his mouth covered in dirt.
Oh no, there's a height difference between my real self and Clear Sky, and our stride lengths and landing points are different.
Of course, I would fall if I walk in Clear Sky's steps according to my real self's habits.
Sigh...
Players create game characters for different reasons—some cultivate them as their own and seek immersion, while others cultivate them as their wives to satisfy their XP desires.
It's all a matter of personal preference.
Luke belongs to the latter category.
But he never expected that a beautiful wife would one day become... himself, a clone.
Now their body structures are different, and he really needs to adjust.
Luke got up from the ground, did a set of radio exercises, and then jogged in place.
Little by little, he
adapted to his new body and the sense of power that he had never truly experienced before.
He could feel the tremendous energy stored within Clear Sky's body, like a nuclear bomb. Once it's all released, it will undoubtedly be destructive.
And there's the overwhelming desire to fight, influenced by the fierce war chant bloodline.
Taking a slow breath, Luke completed his warm-up and stood on the edge of the rooftop. With a light leap, his figure turned into a faint shadow and rushed forward.
Blocking Wind Alley is close to the Cape Harbor, and passing through here will take him to the warehouse area.
It was already late at night.
The warehouse area was closed, with security guards stationed at the gatehouse, and security patrols inside the storage area.
When Luke arrived at the entrance to the warehouse area, he saw a security guard smoking outside the guard booth.
"Excuse me, where can I find Ron?"
The smoking security guard was taken aback. Someone had walked up behind him without being noticed. If it were an assassin, his head would have probably been twisted off by now.
The guard remembered a colleague who was assassinated a few days ago and immediately drew a knife from his waist.
He turned around and found himself face to face with... an elf.
And a very, very beautiful elf at that.
The guard held his knife horizontally in front of him and cautiously asked the elf, "Who are you?"
Luke, seeing the guard's nervousness, raised his hand to show that he meant no harm and flashed a friendly smile.
"I'm Clear Sky. I'm here to find Ron and retrieve the items I stored with him."
