Acquire Infinite Talents and Skills Through Seizing Bodies!
Dylan got transmigrated inside a popular game "MMORPG: Magic Art Online". A game where the strongest profession was mage. He discovered that he was just an NPC and he was actually in the game 10 years before the players would arrive! Fortunately, he got three golden fingers! "Leveling Deity," which gives him unconditional 300 levels every two years regardless of the realm he was in. "Gamer Experience Multiplier" exps he received from all sources, and all forms are multiplied by 500! With these cheats in possession, Dylan officially became the fastest leveler of all verses and, perhaps, the strongest NPC. Albeit, cheater. The game boasts multiple versions. The first version: Invasion of the Demons. The demons began to invade the kingdom of Azir under the orders of one of the Demon Lords. The players must stop the Demon Lord to proceed to the next version of the game! Dylan needs to become stronger as an NPC before the arrival of the players. Unlike the players, once he dies in the game, he dies forever! He needs strong enough strength to survive and help the players to stop the demon invasion. It's also an opportunity to level up! Dylan, with the help of three cheats or innate talents, "Split Soul," "Leveling Deity," and "Gamer Experience Multiplier," now had the confidence to surpass the undying players and exploit the opportunities in the game with the help of his past life memories! Lastly, he found that he could also upgrade his Innate Talents! [You consumed 10,000 points to upgrade an innate talent. Gamer Experience Amplification (Purple) --> Gamer Experience Multiplier (Gold)] Gamer Experience Multiplier (Gold): Experience that comes from all sources and all forms are multiplied 500x! It also multiplies the effect of Leveling Deity by 2x due to their similar nature. -Innate Talents- Gamer Experience Amplification (Purple): You have the heart of a grinding master. You are blessed by the God of Games. Experience points gained from all sources in all forms are multiplied by 10! Leveling Deity (Black): This innate talent has the characteristics of transcendence and is above even the time river. You are the lord of level-ups, the one and only. Every two years, you unconditionally gain 300 levels no matter what realm you are in, directly skipping three major realms every two years. Split Soul (Black): Allows the you to split your soul. The number depends on your level. You can let your split souls possessed all types of creatures (monsters, humans, aliens, beasts, demons, any type of race, etc...), and when your sub-bodies die, you will inherit their entire lives worth of knowledge/memories, all their talents, skills, and experience for yourself! Note: This book consists of super fast level-ups, fighting boss monsters, interacting with fellow NPCs and players, cheating, various professions, and mythical creatures like elves and dragons.
The Secrets Behind Magic Art Online
Congyun Mirror.
Warrior Abode.
Dylan sat cross-legged in the middle. Now he had sorted out things that he needed to do with the players and had taken the first step. He could finally do other things that he needed to do.
'That Priest Howard has a karmic relationship with me. He tried to kill me when I was still weak and almost died at the Savage Deer's hand. If not for the existence of my cheats, I would have been dead by now.'
'I don't want to provoke the church. But with the help of that player. He would be the one to cause trouble for them.'
Dylan was confident that the Brawny player would be able to destroy the church in the future. After all, he was a player. An immortal being in this world. He could afford to fail and die again and again and repeatedly trouble the church. When the time comes, have sufficient strength to destroy Howard and the Church.
Priest Howard wasn't even in the Noble Realm at all. But Dylan wasn't sure if there were experts in the dark who would guard him.
Dylan shook his head.
Then, a blue cube of rift emerged. It spits out corpses of Mist Monster on the ground.
'Mirror, I want to sell these things.'
[Analyzing the items...]
[It is detected that there are 1100 corpses of 6th to 7th grade of Awakened Mist Monsters. Each priced 50 contribution points...
It is detected that there are 432 8th to 9th-grade corpses of the Awakened Mist monster. Each is priced at 100 contribution points.]
[The total is 98,200 contributions. Would you like to sell it?]
[Yes/No]
'Yes!' Dylan's mouth watered as he saw the price. This is a lot of money even for him!
[Success!]
The corpses on the ground vanished just like that. For such means, it was still beyond Dylan's comprehension.
Dylan looked at his balance.
Contribution points: 111,233
Dylan hurriedly bought the "Spatial Ripple" that he had coveted in the past.
...
Spatial Ripple- A basic application of space. It causes a ripple in the space to slow down any type of movement speed by 50% and reduce the effectiveness of enemies' spatial means to a certain extent within 30 meters of the user.
Requirement: Entry-level understanding of the law of space. The price is 10,000 contribution points.
...
Dylan smiled as he received a flood of information in his mind. With a thought now, he could cause a ripple in the space to slow down his enemies and have means to somewhat obstruct spatial users.
Contribution points: 101,233
He looked at his balance. 'Worthy of ten thousand points.'
Then he turned his head at another one that he desired.
...
Dimensional Stealth- An advanced level application of the law of space. Conceal one's breath and existence, merge with the space to move. Perfect for assasination. Only creatures with a high affinity to space and excellent understanding could detect the user.
Requirements- A deep understanding of the space element. Achieved the extraordinary state "One with the space". Only those in the Noble Realm can learn this due to the harshness of space that could tear those below the Noble Realm apart. Priced 500,000 contribution points.
...
'Damn... My points are still not enough.'
Dylan thought he was rich as fuck now. But reality slapped him so quickly. He looked at the rest of the space techniques in the section. Every one of them was expensive but the effects matched their price. Dylan knew that he still needed to accumulate contribution points.
'Well, can't do anything about it. I need to be practical. Let me buy an armor first.'
Dylan went to the equipment section and chose the armor category. Names after names appeared in his eyes.
In the end, he saw something that he could buy and also had a special effect.
...
Name: Nine Nether Armor
Type: Defense
Item Rank: Suitable for Saints and Beyonders
Quality: Gold
Description: Made from the fur of Nine Nether Rhino from Abyss. The armor had a terrifying defense and could self-regenerate. +100 VIT +50 STR.
Special Effect: Nine Nether Reflection
Price: 81,000 contribution points
...
Nine Nether Reflection: The Phantom of the Nine Nether Rhino appears behind you. The target that the bear gazes upon would have their soul paralyzed. The duration of paralysis depends on the gap between the strength of the soul of the caster and the target.
Contribution points: 20,233
Suddenly, a crimson armor inlaid with shiny metal plates appeared on the ground. It exudes an aura of wilderness and there was a black ink symbol shaped of a bear on the neck of the armor. Dylan equipped the armor, and it automatically replaced the silver-quality armor on his body.
He briskly walked in front of the mirror and briefly admired himself. 'This is good. More importantly, I look 2x more handsome.' then he speechlessly scanned his stature from head to toe. He looks almost like a mini giant like Shaq and Yao Ming of NBA.
This Nine Nether Armor was enough for him to use until Beyonder Realm! It was a good-quality piece of equipment. Now, if the player sees him. They would likely die out of envy or even become more in awe of him.
Dylan couldn't help but chuckle at the silly players...
'Wait... I should try to seize their bodies and see if I can control them.'
As he thought of this, he immediately stood up. Then he sent a message to his Hobgoblin to continue killing adventurers and loot them.
Then Dylan entered his space, beat up the two Mist Monsters, and sparred with Jericho to get his total of five upgrade points.
[Upgrade Points]: 511
'Still short of the half to upgrade a blue innate talent to purple. Unfortunately, there aren't players in this city who have purple talent to covet.'
'How about the players spawned from other cities? I hope there might be one or two with purple or even gold.'
As he thought of gold, he couldn't help but sigh. The gold account was priced at one billion dollars in the real world. As for why people would waste money for a mere game?
Magic Art Online isn't just a mere game. Before Dylan died in his past life. The Magic Art Online wasn't simple. One can receive the powers of their avatars from reality. The upper echelons of Earth spared no effort to create superhuman armies. They also personally played the game to become strong and poured resources to try to achieve immorality. Everyone covets the increase of lifespan brought by level up from every major realm.
Nobles can lived up to 200 years.
Saints, 400 years...
Beyonders, 800 years...
Majority of politicians on Earth are inherently greedy. With riches and power, how could they not be tempted of longetivity within their reach?
