Facing an Ancient God for a Year

Chapter 336: Chapter 336 White Ring_1

It’s done!

Hearing the prompt in his ear, Fu Qian nodded in satisfaction.

At last, he had lived up to himself, even after chewing such disgusting stuff.

At this moment, Fu Qian felt as if he had swallowed a ton of razor blades.

As a Transcendent item, the Hidden Thread’s tier was clearly high.

And after being crushed with all his might by Fu Qian, it unleashed terrifying destructive power; right now, his stomach could be said to be thoroughly ravaged.

...
But none of that mattered anymore.

Fu Qian took two steps forward. At this moment, Su Gao still stood there with her eyes tightly closed, like a statue.

However, in his perception, her aura had undergone earth-shattering changes compared to before, no longer exhibiting that chaotic self-pulling.

It proved that Student Su Gao had indeed put up a good fight, not only withstanding his relentless torment but also seizing that slim chance.

By now, she should have won the victory over the internal cerebral battle, avoiding the fate of becoming a puppet.

It even seemed like a blessing in disguise!

From this angle, it was clear to see that under the enveloping light, the white porcelain covering Su Gao’s body was fading away, gradually softening into fine skin.

The aftereffects of her previous shattered fusion seemed to be dissipating bit by bit.

At the same time, a special aura also rose, and Fu Qian found it familiar.

It was the scent of divinity.

Chances are, by the time she opens her eyes again, she will have become a Demigod.

Fu Qian casually sat down beside the tower, his back to Su Gao, looking outside.

At this moment, this magical realm was suffused with an indescribable tranquility.

Unbeknownst to him, the inverted heavens and earth had already dimmed, with only dark red moon shadows left above and below.

Fu Qian admired this spectacle, and the next moment, the scene in front of him shattered and twisted, the familiar warehouse appearing before him.

[Mission Evaluation: Fairy Tale Incarnate]

[When she awoke amidst a nightmare of ghostly figures, she, like others, was incredibly terrified, especially after discovering that she was pregnant.

However, as a lady full of enthusiasm for life, after brief despair, she still found joy in living in this frail shelter and gave birth to a lovely daughter.]

[During the years she spent with her daughter, what she loved most was to adapt fairy tales into her own preferred versions to tell her.

And when describing the various delicious pastries from outside to her daughter, one thing she regretted was not being able to find the right ingredients to let her taste the real sweetness.]

[Until one day, she found a kind of transparent tree sap on a tree that was not so deformed and tried to collect it to make cube sugar.]

[And this not-so-delicious candy became a light in a little girl’s life.]

[There might not be a mother in mommy’s room, but when you are lost and struggling, she will always be there for you in various forms.]

[Kills: None]

[Reward: SAN Points +20; Inspiration +5]

[Special Reward: White Ring]

[Current SAN Points: 195, Current Inspiration: 71]

[Play event recap?]

Just as he had guessed.

Fu Qian listened quietly to the mission summary, lost in thought.

The ‘her’ referred to in the description was clearly Su Gao’s mother.

From those fairy tales, it was evident that this unseen lady was undoubtedly an interesting person.

It was especially admirable that, as an ordinary person, she woke up to find herself in a place like the Rotten Forest and not only did she not fall into despair and depravity, but she even maintained her passion for life.

Making candy from tree resin may sound simple, but in the Rotten Forest, finding ingredients that can be ingested is by no means an easy task.

Perhaps it was precisely because she had such a mother that Su Gao, who grew up in that kind of environment, did not extinguish her pursuit of beautiful things, like the flower garlands she knit for the dolls.

Speaking of which, he seemed to have a special reward.

Fu Qian flipped through the items above.

[Name: White Ring]

[Type: Ring]

[Effect: A ring formed from special materials, its purity makes it an excellent container.

Once activated, it can absorb a single special attack and record it, and then release it upon reactivation.

If the tier is too high, the success rate will significantly decrease.]

[Note: Purity is also a form of power.]

This… turned out to be surprisingly decent.

Fu Qian examined the reward in his hands.

The appearance was extremely simple, just a pure white ring with no decorations or engraving.

It felt slightly cold to the touch, and the material was somewhat similar to the white porcelain that Su Gao previously had on her.

And its effect was definitely practical.

To nullify attacks and record them, even if there was a lower success rate against high tier skills, as long as it was used wisely to record some special skills, it might produce some unexpected effects.

For a level 3 task, this reward was already very satisfying.

Fu Qian tried on the White Ring, and surprisingly, it looked good on his finger—not a waste of the effort he had put in.

In fact, Fu Qian deeply suspected that this special reward was probably related to his choices; if he had directly eliminated Su Gao to complete the task, he likely wouldn’t have received this item.

As of now, he had already acquired three rings, and he felt like becoming a Ring King with all ten fingers adorned was entirely feasible if he continued like this.

[Today’s work has been completed. You may now leave the warehouse. Weekly work progress: 2/4]

As the prompt sounded, Fu Qian stretched languidly. He did not activate the mark on his hand but instead took out the Emissary’s Mask and put it on.

He had developed a habit of, after finishing the daily task, going to the other side to have a look around.

Soon, he reappeared on the second floor of the bookstore.

When he had left, the situation with Su Gao seemed unresolved.

Not only was he still trapped there, but Non-human Brother had not been vanquished yet either.

If he wanted to check up on her subsequent situation, it was not impossible; he could go to the Night Watchmen Base and use the reward promised by Yuan Shan to look up related information.

Unfortunately, Fu Qian had no such intentions for the moment, because in his view, there was nothing to worry about regarding Su Gao.

Not to mention that the dollification had stopped, the Hidden Thread had already been destroyed by him.

Even looking at the situation at that time, the chances were high that this person who woke up would rank as a Demigod, and if Non-human Brother, who did not even dare to face her head-on, could threaten her, that would be a real joke.

As he thought this over and leisurely descended the stairs, Fu Qian paused—the doorway once again held a letter.

“I’ve got a feeling business won’t be starting today either!”

Muttering to himself, Fu Qian walked up and picked up the letter.

Unexpectedly, it was another letter from Yuan Shan.

The content was very simple, essentially stating that the previous matters had been settled and inviting him to meet.

She seemed somewhat unusual, hasn’t it been less than two days?

Although he was curious about what would follow, she was surely too dedicated to her work!
