Chapter 2: The Door of Truth, Climb the Staircase to Godhood!

What appeared in front of Gary Smith was a mysterious silver key.

The pole of the key was entwined with mysterious silver vines, seemingly growing out of thin air, disappearing into the void, and causing a circle of purple ripples.

The handle of the key, however, was curved in shape, like the hook of an umbrella. In the middle were countless runes, outlining an eye that was shaped like a starry nebula, wriggling and looking around incessantly like a living creature!

But no matter how it looked, it dared not peer into the figure of the Thousand Hands, concealed by endless chaos, as if even a tiny glance was a taboo.

Although a strange eye grew from the key, Gary Smith still recognized it...

This was the Silver Key he had bought in his previous life, also known as the Stairway to Godhood, the Key of Truth, and so on.

In his orphanage, as they put more money into taking care of the children, the infrastructure was quite poor.

The biggest entertainment project was the collection of fairy tale books and mythology books collected by the dean. Gary Smith loved those vast and holy mythological stories, but what he liked was not the highly respected gods, but the oddly powerful monsters and divine artifacts.

After coming of age, Gary Smith, who could earn money by himself, loved to collect all kinds of weird items and figurines.

Among them, the Silver Key was bought at a roadside stall. The boss said it was the legendary key that could open the Door of Truth, and you could take it home for just 9999.

But Gary Smith didn't listen to him. He thought the shape of the key was cool and bought it for 99 after negotiating.

Along with this, he also ordered a mythology book related to it online to learn about this obscure legend.

However, before he could receive his order,

he was transported to another dimension.

"I was just holding this key in the air. Could it be that I opened the Door of Truth?"

Gary Smith thought hard. If the Silver Key had appeared, it must have been responsible for his crossing dimensions. But... he didn't see any so-called godly secrets!

Did he need to gather tens of thousands of people to chop it down like Pinxi?

While he was pondering, the Silver Key slightly vibrated. A wave of information flowed into Gary Smith's mind and after some processing, he finally understood the cause and outcome.

The Silver Key he bought for 99 in his previous life was indeed genuine. It opened the legendary Door of Truth possessing godly secrets, and he even entered it.

However, his mortal body was not able to contain the vast and mystical knowledge, resulting in his head exploding.

Boom!

Headshot!

But his spirit did not perish. Instead, it arrived in this beast-controlling world and brought the Silver Key and the things he obtained from beyond the door.

Thinking of this, Gary Smith found that his original [Eyes of Truth] talent had been replaced by a new talent.

[Master of the Gate (Incomplete): As the holder of the Key of Truth, you will possess Eyes of Truth (Incomplete). You can see all the information and weaknesses of everything at the cost of consuming your psychic power.

All of your actions conform to truth. You will gain added support from the Door of Truth and improve the creation of super equipment, magic potions, secret food, and divination talents and receive an additional fifty percent success rate.

Creating potions, food, and secret food of good or better quality generates additional effects, and the better the quality, the stronger the effect. Also, any side effects from any super category only require one percent of the original capacity.] The quality is divided into average, good, excellent, perfect, and ultimate.

After binding the Silver Key, Gary Smith used only one-tenth of the original spiritual power to use Eyes of Truth. The target was also changed from pet beasts to all things.

And this was just the effect under incomplete condition!

If he could complete it, it would metamorphose into part of the Omniscience Authority, and there would be no secret in his sight.

The end of omniscience is omnipotence!

Climbing the long stairway to godhood.

As for why it was incomplete, Gary Smith had a faint feeling that it was related to his dimension crossing. However, the memories after entering the Door of Truth were temporarily sealed because too much high-dimensional information was involved.

It would only be unlocked one by one after his strength became formidable.

Apart from Eyes of Truth, the additional effects were also terrifying. The professional assistants' qualifications were promoted with a fifty percent success rate.

Keep in mind that it was an added attribute on top of the person's own success rate. It was effective for all super auxiliary jobs.

With such a buff support, Gary Smith's assistant job's talent points would be filled.

For instance, as he made food to feed his pet beast, as long as the quality was good or better in the judgment of Eyes of Truth, it would produce various special effects.

Such as attribute enhancement, skill proficiency improvement, study acceleration buffs, et cetera.

Simply by continuously feeding, he could give infinite buff or even attributes to his controlled beast, rocketing up.

The last side effect reduction was even more a bug. For example, it was easy to be backfired when predicting the future. If others needed to pay the price of a hundred years of lifespan, Gary only needed one year. Similar ones included curses, forbidden curses, etc.

Exchange the maximum gain with the minimum price.

In other words, Gary Smith, who held the Key of Truth now, was a part of Truth.

But when Gary Smith wanted to check the stuff he brought out from the door, he couldn't find it. His thoughts turning around, the chaos streams congealed into a piece of text in front of him.

[Hint: Contract the first Beast]

[Unlock: Legacy of the Secret Cuisine]

[Description: Use mystery as fire, devour the taboo.]

It wasn't a so-called system, but more like Key of Truth telling him how to gain more power with the task forms he found easy-to-understand. Besides the inheritance, it seemed that there were also some of his former belongings.

"It's time to contract the first beast!"
