I Don't Agree to the Terms-Chapter 606 - 329: Now, It’s Time for Someone Else to Hold Up the Sky

"It’s done, the skill issue has finally been resolved."

Gu Shanhai looked at the three bottles of potion in his hand, named Basic/Advanced/Divine Favored Skill Potion, respectively. After consumption, one could acquire a skill of the corresponding level.

The only defect was that it could only be used in this world, and the user had to be a player; then, the player could randomly acquire a skill of the relevant level.

As for what skill it would be, Gu Shanhai didn’t guarantee—it would just be a skill related to the user’s class.

The raw material was the rules, which Gu Shanhai had fished out from the pool water, and then turned into skill potions. The reason it was limited to players was that players had the backup of "The First Epoch," allowing Gu Shanhai to forcibly implant into them the skills evolved from fragments of the rules.

If it were a native instead, they would be assimilated into a pool of rule water at the first instance.

And as for the potions being only usable in this world, it was quite simple: the rules pertained to this world. Once you leave this world, other worlds will definitely not acknowledge it.

Even if a player got their hands on it, there would still be restrictions, such as the item being unable to be taken out of the instance, and so on.

"Fortunately, this pool is just a perception; otherwise, if I really wanted to amass so many skill potions, I’d have to dismantle worlds."

After the successful development, Gu Shanhai naturally had to consider mass production.

He had actually already developed the mass production technology. He only needed to create an automated industrial assembly line to continuously obtain large quantities of skill potions.

"There’s still one month left, it should be sufficient, right?"

"By now, the Great Ruin’s influence on the world has already started to decline from its peak, and the world can gradually return to normal over this month."

"However, before the Great Ruin completely departs, we still need to rely on the players."

"But the corresponding rewards have to be gradually reduced, otherwise, they might go as crazy as the Saints before, and I definitely couldn’t bear that."

Through the Four Sacred Beasts System, Gu Shanhai began to arrange his affairs.

He didn’t stop the Saints from ramping up the stakes before because it didn’t require his efforts, but now that the burden had fallen onto him alone, he had to find a way to manage it.

"I can’t be the one to hand out rewards; I can only manipulate from behind the scenes and help. I’ll have to let Rein handle it; after all, he’s such a main character who can come in handy."

He knew he wasn’t suited for it, mainly because he was a temporary player and didn’t have some related permissions of native NPCs, such as award distribution and task issuing. The former wasn’t recognized by "The First Epoch," and the latter couldn’t take effect. Moreover, as a player distributing rewards, it could easily cause other players to become covetous.

Creating trouble for himself was the last thing he wanted, so it was better to let Rein do it.

There was no need to worry about Rein encountering problems. This was about giving out rewards; how could players cause trouble? If there truly were troublemakers, other players would also step in to act.

The only issue was there were too many players; it would be very difficult to complete the distribution, and it would take a long time.

It would take at least half a year to a year to finish. It was faster before because the Saints personally took action, but with Rein in charge, even if he could organize everyone left, it wouldn’t be efficient enough.

The real challenge was how to quickly distribute the awards.

Players couldn’t possibly wait here for you for half a year; it was unrealistic. And this was only the first batch of distribution. Until the Great Ruin’s influence disappeared, which meant the remaining year, surely more awards would have to be distributed to have players help with construction and ensure world security.

"There’s a solution, but before that, I have to preserve Rein’s profession."

The profession of Automated System was a good fit for Rein. If he had related automatic abilities, then he alone could finish the task in an absurdly fast manner, perhaps not half a year but possibly in three to five days.

Never underestimate such causality-related skills that come with a hundred percent efficiency.

It’s just that his profession was too versatile.

"I don’t even know which Saint Rein is the reincarnation of, or what deity he was in a previous life to have formed such an outrageous Divine Favored profession."

Adventurers with a Divine Favored profession are all Saint reincarnations, so the form and strength of that Divine Favored profession depend on the Saint and the deity; it’s immutable unless the adventurer uses a class change certificate to become an adventurer, which then prevents acquiring a Divine Favored profession.

Gu Shanhai would have liked to explore this further, but there’s nowhere to do that now.

The entire Hero World’s civilization had collapsed because of the Great Ruin, and even if it recovers, it probably has to start from scratch, not to mention the records related to Saints and other secrets.

Most of these things were buried in the past with the demise of the Holy Saints.

"If I want to preserve Rein’s profession, then I’ll have to start with blessings from a deity. One advantage of Divine Favored professions is that because of the death of Saints, coupled with the erosion and collapse of the lands of adventure, and the shallow intersection with the rules, there is still a probability of separation."

"Other professions along with the Hero World system and even their professions themselves have disappeared after the Saints died a month ago."

"Divine Favored professions might still have some roots left. If I’m timely enough, I could dismantle, modify, and then reinstall them." 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚

Gu Shanhai’s approach was actually similar to the Hero Panel in Hero World before; it’s about changing it from the original internet mode to a local area network mode, and then patching it up so it can basically restore its original capabilities.
