I Don't Agree to the Terms-Chapter 607 - 329: Now, It’s Time for Someone Else to Hold Up the Sky_2

If they were to lift his limits, Rein might be able to regain his original Saint power.

"Let’s go check out the situation first." Gu Shanhai knew that while the plan was sound, it had to be adapted to the on-ground realities.

Like now, he needed to first create an automated industrial production line for crafting Skill Potions; otherwise, heading directly to find Rein would be problematic if there weren’t enough potions.

After all, Rein’s ability to distribute rewards was predicated on having these resources; without them, even if he could distribute rewards, it would be pointless.

The blueprint for the production line was swiftly deduced by the Four Sacred Beasts System, and Gu Shanhai promptly summoned the Heart Demon Dao Soldiers and Azure Dragon.

With the help of these tool-man and multi-purpose tool dragon, the construction process was greatly simplified. Gu Shanhai didn’t even need to lift a finger, similar to 3D printing, various parts were manufactured and assembled.

The software was even less of a worry; the Four Sacred Beasts System took care of the compilation directly before injecting it into the freshly assembled hardware.

The efficiency was phenomenal; Gu Shanhai estimated that the entire Skill Potion production line would be completed in at most three hours.

Time flew by, and after the production line was set up, Gu Shanhai didn’t leave right away but instead started it up to perform checks.

"Thankfully, there is the rule pool transformed by the Saints, which absorbs all the chaotic and shattered rules from the mutation zones; otherwise, I couldn’t have set up this production line," Gu Shanhai thought to himself with relief as he saw the automated line begin operation.

He then observed it for another hour and took numerous samples for inspection—all the Skill Potions were up to standard, which eased one of his burdens.

Next was ensuring the safety of the entire production line.

"Set up some Arrays or something."

Gu Shanhai worried that if someone broke in, taking a few bottles wouldn’t matter, but he dreaded the possibility that they might take too much or destroy the entire production line out of greed or to monopolize the resource. This was precisely the headache he wanted to avoid.

Such people existed.

Therefore, safety measures were essential.

With these arrangements and tests, another two hours passed.

After dealing with these matters, he finally moved on toward Rein’s location.

"Teacher? What brings you here?" Rein looked somewhat fatigued, and he was also a bit startled upon seeing Gu Shanhai.

"Mm, there’s been a little trouble. I came to see you," Gu Shanhai glanced at Rein, who was tending to some official duties, and continued, "There have been reports of adventurers losing their abilities; what’s your take on this?"

Rein heard this and chuckled bitterly, "Teacher, what opinion could I possibly have?"

"The first to lose their abilities were the adventurers without professions, followed by those at the basic and then advanced levels. Now, even those in Divine Favored Professions are barely better off, and they are barely clinging to their Divine Blessings. My skills have almost entirely stopped working, and the panel formed by the divine blessings has been flickering these past few days. My adventurer powers are nearly gone completely."

"Teacher, how about your side? The situation with the Saints doesn’t look promising?" Rein asked.

"It’s not just unpromising. Currently, in the whole world, I am the only Saint left. All other Saints have shattered into rules," Gu Shanhai didn’t conceal the truth.

In reality, if the Saints hadn’t cooperated with Gu Shanhai, they would still exist in some strange form, albeit alive. It was their voluntary descent into death that led to the current situation.

Hearing this, Rein looked shocked, "What?! Are you alright, teacher?"

Rein was relatively acquainted with the Holy Saint compared to other Saints, who he genuinely did not know well. However, compared to the Holy Saint, he was naturally more concerned about Gu Shanhai.

"Don’t worry, it’s probably because I wasn’t a complete Saint to begin with, so I was spared." This statement from Gu Shanhai was indeed true, as he was not innately a complete Saint.

"That’s good to hear." Rein breathed a sigh of relief and then continued to ask, "Now that the Saint has perished, what should we do next?"

Gu Shanhai knew Rein was referring to the rewards for the players, which weren’t a small matter this time. It would likely take quite some time for Gu Shanhai to resolve it alone.

"I came here specifically to handle this matter," Gu Shanhai said gravely, "I need to create appropriate rewards, so I truly don’t have the spare time to distribute them. This heavy task can only fall on you."

Upon hearing this, Rein’s expression turned bitter, and he said, "I’m willing to do it, but it’s an incredibly difficult task, as you know."

"Furthermore, our power has disappeared, and we can’t even maintain order..."

The loss of adventurers’ power meant that everyone returned to the same starting line, causing many to harbor inappropriate thoughts.

"I will restore and enhance your adventurer’s power, but as for the others, I am powerless and can only find a way to first get through this difficult situation."

"The minimum guarantee is to have Level 10 power and unlock all the automatic system’s skills."

"Additionally, I will find ways to qualify you to become a Saint, but whether or not you can become one depends entirely on you, as I can’t help you in that endeavor."

"Once you possess the power of a Saint and are assisted by the automatic system inherent in this Divine Favored Profession, you should be able to resolve all problems on your own."

Gu Shanhai indeed had high hopes for Rein, being the protagonist, and if he provided even a slight opportunity, no matter how small the success rate, it would reach one hundred percent because of the protagonist’s role.

"So, it’s all up to you now!" Gu Shanhai immediately switched to an inspirational mode.

After listening, Rein became more somber and replied, "No problem, how should I cooperate with you, teacher?"

Regarding Gu Shanhai’s request, he certainly wouldn’t refuse. Rein knew the situation with the players, driven by profit. If the rewards were delayed, players might even rebel, which would lead to greater chaos.

Aside from those like Shura, Rein’s impression of other players was not particularly positive, as most were synonymous with chaos, even if they claimed to help maintain order, they tended to do so chaotically.

"It’s simple, I’ll first try to fix your adventurer’s power, then I’ll give you a Saint Seed to evolve your adventurer’s power into Divine Power."

"Of course, if you can further develop the power of a Saint, maybe becoming a deity is also possible. " 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮

Gu Shanhai didn’t hide anything; he was providing Rein with the potential to break limits, not a shortcut to ascend instantly. To Gu Shanhai, even the Level 10 adventurer’s power was just a starting point.

Like a newborn child compared to an adult is the difference between a Saint and a deity.

And Level 10 for an adventurer was even less of a concern.

Therefore, in the world of Adventure King, the classification only consists of adventurer, Saint, and deity. The latter two are levels that a regular adventurer can hardly break through, even an adventurer who reincarnates and possesses a Divine Favored Profession.

Unless someone encounters an extraordinary existence like Gu Shanhai, this class restriction is otherwise unbreakable for life.

"Teacher, isn’t this a bit too much?" Rein hesitated, referencing the possibility of becoming a deity.

"It’s just a possibility, not a certainty," Gu Shanhai stated, emphasizing it’s still up to you. What he was providing wasn’t much; in fact, he currently didn’t have the ability to make Rein directly become a Saint or a deity, but rather pinned his hopes on Rein’s role as the protagonist.
