Chapter 52: [Mind is Like a Mirror]

[Congratulations to the host for obtaining the green talent [Telepathy].

[Telepathy] (Green): You can read other people's emotions, and you are immune to psychic attacks to a certain extent.

"Green talent?"

"…Immune to psychic attacks?"

Orion's eyes sparkled with excitement.

Cool!

He actually got the entry for restraining psychic abilities? Could it be that the talent lottery roulette can interpret his desires?

"It's not in vain that I spent 800 points of luck!"

"You truly get what you pay for!"

"Pity… I don't have any extra luck points to upgrade this green talent."

Orion's expression darkened.

But… he was in a mysterious dimension, akin to a private server game that belonged solely to him. He could accumulate a massive amount of luck value at any time.

Orion glanced at the corpse of the elephant monster, a trace of regret flickering across his face.

He couldn't extract the talent entry from these monsters.

Otherwise, the talent entries from monsters could have made him a fortune!

"Let's go."

"Sugar."

"Let's continue exploring."

Orion skirted around the corpse of the monstrous elephant, proceeded to the cave, and picked the golden grass, stashing it in his arms.

Then, he saw a flash of golden light within the cave.

There seemed to be a mysterious item emanating a wave of magical energy!

"Um?"

"What's this—"

Orion's eyes widened with intrigue.

He conjured a spark of magic that illuminated the entire dark cave.

Mountains of treasures came into view.

There were all sorts of mysterious items, including magic herbs recorded in the 'Compendium of Materia Medica' and exquisitely crafted ceramics that emitted a faint luster.

"The elephant actually had a collecting habit?"

"This is a huge windfall!"

Orion's excitement grew.

He quickly gathered all the loot and transferred it directly into the inner space of the power gem.

The power gem served as a self-contained temporary storage space.

But… Sugar suddenly stopped him, her eyes gleaming with longing as she gazed at one of the items.

"Big Brother."

"Can you give me this fruit?"

Sugar tugged at Orion's trouser leg, her face uplifted, her beautiful eyes like shimmering pools.

"Fruit?"

Orion's gaze was stunned.

Upon closer inspection, he realized that the item was the ancient magic medicine recorded in the "Compendium of Medicine."

Snakeskin fruit!

Its surface was adorned with strange, scale-like patterns.

It was extremely alluring to dimensional creatures; it could enhance their potential and had the effect of cleansing their essence and bodies! but Why hadn't the elephant consumed the snakeskin fruit?

Orion shook his head from distracting thoughts and handed over the fruit. He and Sugar had a deep bond and had long been partners.

There was no need for him to eat alone.

Moreover, it would benefit Sugar's growth and unleash the potential of "Born to Be a King"!

"Thank you."

"You're so kind, Big Brother."

Sugar accepted the snakeskin fruit with a radiant smile and took a small bite immediately.

She used her teeth to peel off the tough skin.

Then, she began savoring it.

The sweet and juicy flavor brought her immense happiness.

A burst of bright light immediately enveloped her.

It seemed… she was about to evolve!

[Because your actions have brought a major turning point in Sugar's fate, you will be rewarded with 200 luck points.]

"200 points of luck!"

Orion's eyes lit up with joy.

[Name]: Orion

[Identity]: Guardian Sorcerer

[Talent]: God of Learning (Blue), Grandmaster of the martial arts (Blue), innate knowledge(Purple), Good Luck Comes from Misfortune (Blue), Extremely Popular (Blue), X Factor (Purple), Telepathy (Green), Half Step Ahead (Black), and It Is a Crime to possess a Treasure (Black).

[Luck Value]: 200.9

He could now upgrade [Telepathy]!

He hoped that [ Telepathy] would be upgraded to a blue entry, truly allowing it to resist psychic attacks!

After all, there was more than just Professor X, the White Queen of the Hellfire Club, the Cuckoo of Many Shadows, including Jean Grey, and the Scarlet Witch…

All possessed similar abilities.

Orion couldn't tolerate having his mind controlled and his cognition and memory tampered with.

He would be reduced to a mindless walking corpse.

[Do you want to use luck value for [Telepathy] (Green)?]

"Sure!"

Orion's eyes gleamed with anticipation.

The next second, the entry was officially upgraded.

[[Telepathy] (Green) has evolved into [Mind is Like a Mirror] (Blue)]

[Mind is Like a Mirror] (Blue): The Mind has no distracting thoughts, can see everything clearly, and can also reflect the harm of the soul.

"Reflect psychic damage?"

"Cool!"

"Indeed, ordinary entries are far more valuable than pink entries!"

"Thankfully, I did not solidify the entry drops of the Stitch Monster…"

Orion felt a sense of secret satisfaction.

Now, he no longer had to fear those with psychic abilities.

He just didn't know if there was a limit to the damage to the soul that [Mind is Like a Mirror] could reflect.

Anyway, he followed the first principle of cautious development.

If he wasn't completely sure, he would never take risks.

After all, he only had one life. He didn't have the ability to bring the dead back to life! Even the powerful Black King, the top mutant standing at the pinnacle of power, had become a research specimen for Trask Industries.

With the financial resources of Trask Industries and the Sentinel Secret Service… cloning a Black King was likely not difficult!

"Keep exploring!"

Orion's eyes gleamed with resolve.

Then, he dismissed the Emperor Vishanti Sacred Sword, condensed his magic power into a double-barreled shotgun, and faced the mist of war ahead once more.

The death of the high-level monster made the creatures within a hundred meters radius grow increasingly restless.

There was a rustling sound. Heavy, powerful footsteps approached rapidly from afar!

Orion was on high alert. He heard a loud

crash!

The ground shook. Sawdust flew everywhere!

A creature that resembled a rhinoceros, fat and powerful, exuded a ferociously dangerous aura. It burst through the obstacles and raised its horn.

In an instant, it charged straight toward Orion!

[Rhinoceros]

[Level]: Intermediate

[Entry]: Bronze-Headed and Iron-Brained (Green), Well-Developed Limbs (Green), and Retribution Must Be Made (Green).

[Copper-Headed Iron Brain] (Green): The rhinoceros is armored, invulnerable, indestructible, and its physical damage resistance is increased by 50%.

[Developed Limbs] (Green): The rhinoceros has exceptionally strong leg muscles and can run at high speed.

[Retribution Must Be Made] (Green): If you fail to kill the rhinoceros, it will seek revenge at any time and attack ferociously.

"Such a big guy is only at intermediate level?"

"Retribution Must Be Made?"

"I'm afraid you won't get the chance!"

Orion smirked.

He quickly raised the double-barreled shotgun and pulled the trigger with force.

Energy blasts erupted forth.

Like a torrential downpour, they roared through the air and shot toward the rhinoceros!

Boom!

Bang ,bang ,bang ,bang!

The rhinoceros's skin erupted with sparks.

The power of a double-barreled shotgun far exceeded that of a revolver.

The energy bomb exploded the moment it hit the rhinoceros, inflicting tons of fatal damage!

The rhinoceros's skin was split open, revealing deep, visible wounds!

The beast became even more ferocious!

Taking advantage of Orion's momentary pause, the rhinoceros kicked off with its back foot, unleashing a tremendous momentum once again!

It seemed poised to push him aside!

"Funny."Orion smirked quietly.

In an instant, Orion leapt into the air, grasped the rhinoceros's horn with one hand, and shoved the gun's muzzle into the creature's eye socket, pulling the trigger with all his might!

The fluidity and precision of the move were executed in a flash of lightning!
