[Day 37, you return to the dungeon with the pendant.]
[Day 38, you have a dozen Flying Ants carry the pendant and place it into a slot.
The secret chamber opens; you cautiously take the three treasures inside.
But you trigger a trap and die.]
[Simulation lasted 38 days, earned 38 Points.]
[You can permanently keep one talent, solidified into the real world.]
"Why so many traps?"
"System, exchange information on that key and the traps."
Jiang Tian said.
[Ding! Spending 210 Points to exchange current items; host has 170 Points left.]
"Continue simulating!"
After absorbing the info, Jiang Tian continued.
[Please choose your talents: ...]
...
[Day 38, you use the pendant to open the Dark Chamber door and take the three treasures.
You open the book, but can't understand the text. You feel energy surging in the peach wood sword, hesitating to bite and swallow it.
Finally, you look at the pearl, which glows faintly golden.
You bring the pearl to the Corpse-Nurturing Pool, triggering the undead uprising inside.
The Corpse King breaks free from the coffin and attacks; you are slapped to death.]
[Simulation lasted 38 days, earned 38 Points.]
[You can permanently keep one talent, solidified into the real world.]
"Damn!"
"Such bad luck!"
"How did that pearl cause the undead riot? Strange."
Jiang Tian sighed.
"But at least I got the three items."
"System, how many points to exchange these three items?"
Jiang Tian asked.
[Ding! The book costs 100 Points, the peach wood sword costs 500 Points, and the pearl costs 1000 Points.]
"Quite expensive, but they must be good stuff!"
Jiang Tian recalled the metal fragment cost only 100 Points.
Now the sword alone is 500, and the pearl twice that!
"Exchanging these three is no problem, but the key issue is understanding what they are and whether I can digest them with my current constitution."
"By my current state, I can do one more Easy simulation. But Easy results aren't accurate; I need to simulate Normal or above."
"Forget it, I'll rest a bit and replenish energy; I'm really tired..."
Jiang Tian's head felt fuzzy and his consciousness unclear.
He found a comfortable spot and lay down to sleep.
...
Waking at dusk, Jiang Tian yawned.
"How long did I sleep?"
He stretched while looking at the dim light at the cave entrance.
"Shit! It's afternoon already, and I haven't done anything but sleep all day!"
Missing a day due to simulation made Jiang Tian feel a little regretful.
But seeing the crescent pendant nearby, he felt it was okay.
"My strength is still too weak to show off outside."
"When I grow stronger, I'll go out and really show off all the swagger I didn't have!"
"I think that day isn't far away!"
Jiang Tian thought confidently.
His current main goal was to exchange the pearl worth 1000 Points and try to swallow it.
If he could digest it, he'd gain tremendous growth!
He would no longer be stuck inside the nest simulating.
"At full status, I can do about six normal simulations."
"If I have enough food and recover stamina quickly, that's up to twelve simulations, though I'll sleep for a day."
"One normal simulation lasts about fifty days or more."
"Looking at this, I can basically exchange the pearl tomorrow."
Jiang Tian ate his fill from Queen Ant's stored food and barely restored his stamina.
"I can't do this; my appetite is huge, eating as much as dozens of Ant Tribe combined," he thought.
In the following time, Jiang Tian simulated while dispatching tasks to Ant Tribe.
Suddenly, thunder roared outside.
"Boom~"
Terrifying sounds echoed in the sky, as if about to shatter the heavens.
"What's going on? Is it going to rain?"
"I've simulated for so long; no rain was mentioned."
"What's happening?"
Jiang Tian hurriedly crawled out and looked up.
A purple lightning bolt streaked across the dusk sky, illuminating the earth in violet.
The lightning stretched for dozens of miles, seemingly tearing the sky open.
With thunder exploding, an ancient dragon's roar echoed across the land.
The sound swept through sky and earth, shattering clouds and stirring winds.
In an instant, heavy rain began to fall densely!
