[You have completed the advancement quest, and your Lord Talent has been ascended. Your Occupational Slot has increased by 1]

[Quick Thinking: 1 Knowledge attribute point grants 11 Magic Points]
[.]
[Strong Gnome: +10 Maximum Health per level for Gnomes]
[Killer Gnome: +1 Attack per level for Gnomes]
[.]
Qin MuYe looked at the long list of talents, all of which were related to scholars and gnome masters. He immediately ignored the gnome master profession and the subsequent effects, focusing instead on the scholar-related Lord Talents.
He favored Broad Learning and Quick Thinking, ultimately choosing Broad Learning as his Occupational Lord Talent.
Unfortunately, he missed the opportunity to use a Talent Ascension Coupon, as the ascension was triggered immediately upon completing the advancement quest, faster than he could act in Lord Epoch.
[Learning Ability: Gain 1000% additional experience when earning experience]
[Academic Research: +30 Knowledge per level]
[Crimson Ancestor: +3 Crimson Element Tier, +3 Crimson Element Adaptation in your territory]

[Gnome Trainer: +30% Recruitment Quantity and -30% Recruitment Cost for all Gnomes]
[Hell Lord: You rule an alternate plane of Hell, +3 Hell Power Tier, +3 Hell Power Adaptation in your territory]
The talent was ascended, but unfortunately, his mastery and understanding of Crimson and Hell elements did not improve, remaining at the expert level. He hoped that upgrading further might allow his Magic Arrow to be cast without any cost.
After all, the Magic Arrow only required 5 Magic Points, and with the next level, it would have +5 Power and -5 Cost.
Qin MuYe then prepared to claim the rewards from the SSS-rated instance.
"I will choose the bloodline and Lord Talent myself, and keep the Talent Ascension Coupons. As for the treasures, I will leave one slot and all the selected building blueprints and Champion Unit Upgrade Coupons to Black Hand to handle."
Qin MuYe usually left matters related to buildings to Black Hand, who managed the territory, while he focused more on his own needs.
For the Advanced Treasures, Qin MuYe would normally leave them all to Mo Xue, but this time, with ten slots available, he decided to take nine for himself to exchange for the Dragon Tooth Crown, Dragon Eye Ring, Dragon Bone Greaves, Dragon Eye Ring, Crimson Dragon Sword, Dragon Shield, Dragon Armor, Dragon Wing Cloak, and Dragon Tooth Necklace to form the Divine Artifact - Dragon King Power.
His previous physique was indeed too small to wear these, but now, with the Titan bloodline, he could easily handle them.
Without hesitation, he exchanged them and combined them into the Divine Artifact - Dragon King Power.

The Dragon King Power armor had no flashy special effects, just attribute boosts. Once Qin MuYe put it on, he felt his strength surge.
This was truly powerful, power beyond measure.
At least, when it came to self-preservation, there were no issues.
"Small wonder the True Dragon Son is so strong. With this armor, his base attributes are off the charts."
"Indeed, it’s composed of nine advanced treasures, using the most components. It’s natural that the synthesized stats would be powerful."
If Qin MuYe had obtained this divine artifact during the initial 30-day adaptation period, he would have dared to charge into battle.
However, that was now a moot point. Although using it for self-preservation might seem like a waste, he felt that compared to a divine artifact, his life was more important.
If possible, he would also like to add a curse armor. Although wearing two armors and a mage robe might look strange, Qin MuYe could handle it.
After putting on the Dragon King Power armor, Qin MuYe naturally began to choose his bloodline. As for talents, he wasn’t in a rush. He had realized that if he possessed the corresponding elements, he could obtain different Lord Talents.
For example, the Hell Lord talent he initially obtained was through the Book of Death in this fairy tale world, which clearly prioritized bloodlines. If he could further advance his bloodline, he might obtain better talents.
The First Generation Titan bloodline, including the Twelve Titans.
[Divine King Cronus Bloodline]
[Queen of Heaven Rhea Bloodline]
[Ocean God Oceanus Bloodline]
[...]
"It seems that the first-generation divine king Uranus, the Earth Mother Gaia, and the Night Goddess Nyx, although part of the Titan clan, are not classified as first-generation Titans. They must be primordial deities?"
"Does this mean there is another evaluation above the SSS grade?"
If he had received an SS grade, he would have obtained a second-generation Titan bloodline, such as Zeus and the other Titan deities.
After some consideration, Qin MuYe chose the bloodline of the second-generation divine king Cronus. Compared to the third-generation divine king Zeus, Cronus had more centralized divine authority.
Cronus not only ruled the sky but also the sea, the mortal world, and the underworld, meaning he held the power over the entire world, similar to the first-generation divine king Uranus, rather than the divided powers of Zeus, Poseidon, and Hades.
More importantly, the second-generation divine king bloodline was pure, and Qin MuYe believed he might be able to reverse-engineer it and, with the help of the hell authority, elevate it to the level of a primordial deity.
This was not an impossible feat, and Qin MuYe was confident, especially with the "Touch of Insight" Lord Talent.
This talent meant that after touching the knowledge or rules of a certain thing, he could infer the knowledge or rules of similar things.
He possessed the data for the bloodline potions of the Lord of the Underworld, the Queen of the Underworld, and the Divine King, with the Divine King being Zeus, extracted from Aladdin. Although the bloodline concentration was only 1%, it was sufficient.
Qin MuYe glanced at the Cronus bloodline, which was a drop of blood. By silently using it, he could transform his Son of the Underworld Dionysus bloodline into the Divine King Cronus bloodline.
However, doing so would be wasteful. He wanted to restructure it himself to create a new, unique bloodline.
"Scarlet, Hell, Titan, I hope this gives me a pleasant surprise."
As a lord, he wanted more than just a singular reward.
If he restructured his bloodline, perhaps this self-selected talent would offer a pleasant surprise, rather than just ordinary talents.
Moreover, this was a test to see if different worlds offered hidden talents in the self-selection, which would emerge if certain conditions were met.
The Hell Lord talent was a case in point, but it could also be an exception.
If his hypothesis proved true, he would need to focus more on this aspect. If it failed, it wouldn’t matter. This was a process of self-improvement for Qin MuYe, and even without the hidden talent, he would still restructure his bloodline.
This was a necessary step.
His territory had already begun to support him, enhancing his personal strength.
Once his bloodline restructuring was complete, he could stand there with a full set of treasures, and even attacks from the same tier might not break his defenses, effectively elevating him to a higher level.
Leveling up and fighting monsters? Why go through such trouble?
Even with a scholar profession that only increased knowledge, Qin MuYe had demonstrated terrifying potential.
The key was mutual synergy. If it weren’t for the perfect pairing of Learning Ability and Academic Research, he might not have reached his current level.
Catching up to the True Dragon Son and others was just a matter of time, especially since he was now effectively cheating, and the more he did, the more powerful he became.
