Chapter 312 - 279: Unique-Grade Inscription [Destiny] and the Blessing of the Goddess of Luck

Chapter 312: Chapter 279: Unique-Grade Inscription [Destiny] and the Blessing of the Goddess of Luck

Light and shadow danced as three Inscriptions settled one after another.

[Insight (Rare · Inscription): Skill consumption reduced by 10%]

[High Tower (Excellent · Inscription): Skill Shield amount increased by 5%]

[Sacrifice (Rare · Inscription): When casting a Skill that consumes Magic Power, additionally consume 5% of Life Value to increase Skill Effect by 10%]

To think two Inscriptions that exceeded the reward level appeared at once!

Among them, [Sacrifice] was a perfect match for Jon’s high-consumption Arcane Spellcasting System. Its effect of consuming extra Life Value would allow him to repeatedly trigger [Heart of Balance] when casting spells, keeping both his Life and Magic Power at high levels.

And...

"Can the meanings of these three Inscriptions be connected?"

"Insight, is it asking me to discover something? High Tower, does it point to a specific place? As for Sacrifice..."

Jon rubbed his chin, pondering for a moment.

"[Insight]... into the [Sacrifice] of some being... atop a [High Tower]?"

He recalled all the maps of high towers he could remember and temporarily set this speculation aside. If the Goddess of Luck truly intended to convey a message this way, then the next two Inscriptions, which were at least Perfect Level, had to be the main event!

"Come on..."

His mind reached out again, and the light and shadows shifted rapidly.

This time, an even more brilliant radiance flashed before Jon’s eyes.

Countless images, suffused with a mysterious aura, flashed past him. Some of them even looked a little familiar.

’Wait, weren’t the drawings on that unknown relic very similar to some of the Inscriptions I just saw?’

Before he could confirm whether he had seen correctly, a dazzling, rainbow-colored light suddenly bloomed before his eyes!

Accompanied by a wave of ethereal, illusory chanting, two Inscriptions appeared!

[Replicate (Epic · Inscription): Skill consumption increased by 300%, Skill Effect increased by 30%, repeat casting three times]

[Destiny (Unique · Inscription): ???]

"???"

Staring at the two Inscriptions, Jon was completely baffled.

The [Replicate] Inscription, hailed as essential for Mage players, was one thing. It was an Epic Level Inscription, not a Legendary Level one. With enough effort, he could obtain it sooner or later.

But what was the deal with this [Destiny]? A Unique-level Inscription? Did Inscriptions even have such a level?

Jon stared intently at the iridescent icon flickering in his skill bar, his mind racing through past experiences.

Combining everything he had experienced in the Demon Forest Ruins with the information he learned from his conversation with Po Ao in the Sun Divine Domain, the appearance of this Inscription seemed to point directly to Wyatt, the God of Destiny, who had tried to change the fate of the world of Yino only to fall tragically.

As the god who commands Destiny and the elder brother of the Goddess of Luck, his status was undoubtedly among the strongest of the new era of Deities created by the Yino Goddess, placing him on equal footing with Po Ao and Neso.

Even though he had fallen, his influence still lingered in this world.

What Jon could be sure of right now was that this God of Destiny had definitely played a significant role, at least in the matter of his own transmigration.

So, upon encountering such an undisguised "coincidence," his first reaction wasn’t surprise, but an urge to think things through more carefully.

"Wyatt, what contingency plan did you leave behind? And what is your purpose?"

"Insight, High Tower, Sacrifice, Replicate, Destiny..."

Five Inscriptions, five terms. There were too many possible combinations. Just arranging them forwards and backwards created two completely different meanings.

Insight into the High Tower, Sacrifice, Replicate Destiny—what kind of Destiny?

Destiny Replicated, Sacrifice the High Tower, Insight—what kind of truth?

All of this was like a tangled mess of threads in his mind, twisting and colliding, yet failing to Weave a clear picture.

Jon’s brows furrowed as his fingertips unconsciously tapped against the armrest of his chair, making a soft TAP, TAP, TAP sound.

But after a moment, he deliberately stopped this pointless train of thought.

Entities should not be multiplied without necessity.

Since the Goddess of Luck had used her power to deliver these Inscriptions to him, she must have had her reasons.

Thinking about it any more was pointless compared to directly experiencing the power of this Unique-level Inscription with its "???" description.

As for the potential danger?

According to Po Ao, he was the one chosen by the Yino Goddess to forge a new path for the world of Yino—the so-called [——]. That meant the children of the Yino Goddess, those Deities as elusive as Divine Dragons, were naturally on his side. They wouldn’t go to such great lengths just to set a trap for him.

Besides, other than this rippling physique, he didn’t have much else worth scheming over.

"Well then... let’s do this..."

Jon took a deep breath, suppressing the tremor in his heart. His gaze fell upon the small, cat-paw-shaped Divine Emblem of Luck on the desk. The Silver Crystal refracted glimmering specks of light from the flickering candle flame, and a strange sense of familiarity washed over him.

He reached out, pressed his hand down on the entire Divine Emblem, and then focused his mind, directing it toward the iridescent icon on the [Inscription] page.

"Let me see... just what is it you’re trying to tell me—"

VMMMM—

The next instant, a strange hum that far transcended physical Perception shot through his very soul!

Jon could "feel" an endless, viscous, honey-like rainbow light flickering before his eyes!

Countless shimmering, indescribable symbols were born and annihilated in this flowing iridescence, their speed so great that not even an afterimage could be caught.

They twisted and coiled, at times forming trajectories as grand as the spiraling of galaxies, and at others, shattering into billions of sighs as fine as dust.

"Possibility" and "inevitability" shattered and intertwined here, guiding all things in the world toward an uncertain direction.
