One Trait Draw Per Year Even Simulations Count

[”You sinners! How dare you be so bold! If you don’t want to atone, there are plenty of others outside who do! Kill them!”]

[Locke gave the order to massacre.]

[Hundreds of Guardian Knight soldiers clashed with miners wielding pickaxes.]

[The miners’ human-wave tactic was effective, but it came at a tremendous cost in lives.]

[However, by now, all the human miners were fighting for their lives, unleashing a potential far surpassing that of the pampered knight-squires.]

[They were determined to repay every ounce of oppression they had suffered at the hands of the alien races in their entire lives!]

[Faced with the miners’ rebellion, Locke flew into a thunderous rage.]

[With his strength at the Core Formation realm, killing miners was easy, but you tangled with him.]

[”You’re no Postnatal Martial Artist! You’re at least at the same realm as me!”]

[”You just figuring that out now?!”] [”Impossible! You have no immortal root, no special physique, no special soul - a triple-zero like you, how could you reach this cultivation level just by being lucky?!]

[”Go ask the King of Hell about that!!”]

[You fired a barrage of worthless white trait tags at Locke.]

[”What the hell are these?!”]

[One trait tag called 「Zhengbang!」 struck Locke right on the head.]

[Locke’s eyes went wide as saucers on the spot. He started pointing everywhere and shouting.]

[”Miners! Overseers! Knight Order! Zheng—bang!!”]

[You sent him flying with another punch.]

[The effect of the white trait tag only lasted a split second on Locke, a Core Formation realm cultivator, before he forcibly dispelled it with True Qi.]

[As the 「Heartsteel」 stacks climbed higher, combined with the first stage of 「Super Saiyan」 boosted five hundred times by the 「Irritable Constitution」, plus the hundredfold damage reduction from 「The Most Severe Father to Non-Humans」 and 「Wolverine」’s instant healing upon injury...]

[Locke realized he simply couldn’t beat you!]

[His spells hit you like a gentle tickle.]

[Though the divine marks were somewhat effective, you brute-forced through them through sheer overwhelming strength, pounding him relentlessly.]

[”Boom!!”]

[You straddled Locke’s back, your iron fist slamming into him with earth-shattering force, cratering the ground, the shockwaves spreading in all directions, kicking up layers of dust.]

[”Trying to steal my opportunity from me?!”]

[”Boom!”]

[Another punch. Locke’s white robe was shredded to tatters.]

[”Stop hitting me! We don’t want your opportunity anymore! You’re free!”]

[”And we humans are all guilty of sins?!]

[”Boom!!”]

[An even heavier punch, because this one came from your right arm, carrying the Qilin Arm’s tenfold destructive power. A soft armor artifact Locke wore next to his skin shattered on the spot.]

[”You’re innocent! Innocent! I pronounce you innocent!!”]

[”Since when do you get to decide whether I’m innocent or not?!]

[”BOOM!!!”]

[The third punch sent Locke spitting out a mouthful of old blood, mixed with fragments of his shattered internal organs.]

[He was a Core Formation realm cultivator with formidable life force, so he didn’t die - he just passed out cold.]

[Like a god of slaughter, you grabbed Locke’s limp body with one hand and hoisted him up.]

[”Everyone stop right now! Or I’ll kill him this instant!”]

[Your deep, powerful voice echoed throughout the entire mining ground.]

[The Guardian Knights present were completely stunned when they saw Locke, beaten like a dead fish, covered in blood, his bones twisted and mangled by you.]

[”The, the White Priest... actually got beaten this badly by this miner?”]

[”Lord Locke is Core Formation realm too, even if he only broke through recently... could this miner be Extreme Terrain realm? Transcendent Realm??”]

[”With cultivation that high, coming to dig in our mines... is he insane?”]

[Actually, Locke had had a slight chance earlier.]

[He had already figured out that you didn’t understand divine marks, that you were completely brute-forcing through their effects.]

[Some divine marks could indeed restrain you.]

[But before he could find the crucial divine mark to dispel your rage state, you had already beaten him into unconsciousness.]

[You called for a ceasefire because you didn’t want greater casualties.]

[But you had no intention of letting the Guardian Knights present, or the Winged God Church overseer personnel, off the hook.]

[Mine Number One was hundreds of kilometers from the nearest Winged God Church branch.]

[Under the suppression of the Real Realm’s laws of heaven and earth, even if the experts at the branch sensed the situation immediately, they couldn’t arrive quickly.]

[However, you overestimated these people’s loyalty to the White Priest.]

[That Qi Transformation realm officer directly knelt before you with a group of knights.]

[”Spare us, big shot! We didn’t know you were this powerful! If we had known, you’d definitely be an honored guest of the Winged God Church!”]

[The corner of your mouth twitched.]

[”You really are a bunch of bullies who bow to the strong and trample the weak, aren’t you?”]

[”W-well, is that... wrong?”]

[You were left speechless.]

[”Take off all your weapons and armor.”]

[The knights complied.]

[Once the armor was off, you saw the scaly bodies of these Scale Clan members, still damp and slimy, frankly disgusting.]

[It was a far cry from their imposing, majestic look when wearing knight armor and wielding lances.]

[”See that deep well to my right? Jump in.”]

[The officer was stunned.]

[”Big shot, that well is used for surveying deep Source Stones! Even I wouldn’t be able to climb back up if I jumped in!”]

[”Then why do you think I’m telling you to jump?”]

[Seeing that you intended to bury them alive, the knights scattered like startled birds, fleeing for their lives.]

[You summoned Chen Five, and together you split up, rounding them all up and tossing them into the deep well.]

[After all the enemies were dealt with.]

[Looking at your still-massive form, Liu Ying and the other human miners murmured words like ”deity” and ”god.”]

[Your deep voice reached their ears.]

[”I’m no god! I’m human too! If you don’t want to continue being enslaved by the alien races, then rise up with me!”]

[The entire scene fell silent at first.]

[Then a tidal wave of cheers erupted.]

[”Uprising! Rebellion!”]

[”If we follow Benefactor Chen, we’ll have food to eat!!”]

[”Anyone who tries to enslave us gets crushed!!”]

[This uprising, sparked by a bowl of white porridge.]

[Went down in history as the ”White Porridge Uprising.”]

[Afterward, you used the Divine Armament Revelation to strengthen a chain and bound the unconscious Locke hand and foot.]

[Then, you ordered the miners to confiscate the mine’s resources, including Source Stones, food, weapons, armor, and so on.]

[In the battle just now, two hundred miners had died, leaving eight hundred able-bodied fighters.]

[Having received your white porridge charity regularly, their physiques were no longer so frail.]

[With so many people and so many hands, carrying away the mine’s goods was naturally easy.]

[You all marched westward, heading toward desolate areas, far away from the Winged God Church branches.]

[Along the way, Locke woke up.]

[”Hmph, you think a little iron chain can hold me?”]

[”If you so much as move, I’ll give you another punch.”]

[He behaved.]
