Chapter 295 Seed Contestants and God’s Reincarnation

After obtaining the Thunder equipment set, William stayed in the Temple of Light for a few days and networked with a few powerful figures. Then, he bade farewell to Lancelot and returned to the City of Dawn.

He felt relieved after seeing the familiar city and the soldiers and commoners who revered him.

William knew that his deed of pilfering the box went unnoticed. He had purposely exhibited the box to the Temple Knights. He also wore the Rune equipment and walked around the Temple of Light a few times, greeting many visitors.

It made it clear that the leaders of the Temple of Light did not know about this rune equipment.

Or perhaps, they knew about it but did not care.

Since the equipment set was limited to the Grandmaster level, perhaps, they did not give it much importance.

But William had an idea!

He arrived at the fortune-telling hut.

William did not knock on the door. He pushed the door and entered within.

Moses was sitting on his executive chair, cuddling the kitten. Now that the players had gone missing, he did not need to hide in his alternate dimension to conduct experiments.

William cut to the chase and immediately asked, “Do you know how to create rune equipment?”

Moses knitted his brows.

“What’s that? Are you asking me to create a piece of rune equipment for you? Bah!”

Impossible!

Moses hesitated for a long time before nodding. “Yes.”

W

“That’s good. Since you know how to create the rune equipment, you’ll definitely know how to remove it. Once my equipment is used up, help me remove it…” William frowned. Once the rune equipment fused into his body, it would be hard to remove. He had to find a mage who could create rune equipment.

Moses opened his mouth and wanted to curse, but he stopped and asked, “Where did you get the rune equipment?”

“I picked it up from a flower vase in the Temple of Light.”

“Are you telling the truth?” Moses did not trust William. How could he just pick up a piece of rune equipment?

“It will be too costly for you!”

“Is there anything else? If not, scram.”

William looked at Moses, who was in a foul mood and chose to leave. Perhaps, Moses’ seal was about to be removed due to the magic resurgence, that was why his temper had become worse.

According to the events in his previous life…

Moses would remove his seal before game version 3.0 started. Within a short period of time, he would become the legendary all-rounded Enchanter.

“Hmm, how long have I been here since I had transmigrated? Three years? Or two and a half years…”

“Hmm, that’s right. I’m a legendary student who had been training for two and a half years. I will get to witness the seal removal of an all-rounded Enchanter.” William knew that once Moses removed his seal, he would leave and take vengeance on the Magic Sanctuary.

But William was at his wits’ end. He had no reason and was unable to stop Moses.

He wanted to help Moses, but he was not capable enough…

His presence would make matters worse. Any enemy enchanter could easily defeat William and use him as a hostage against Moses.

However, William did not know if him being a hostage would change Moses’ decision.

But it was very obvious.

Once Moses departed, he would break all ties with the City of Dawn.

Moses closed his eyes slowly as he watched William leave. His seal was about to be removed in a short while.

Just three more months more.

Moses’ brows knitted tightly, as he contemplated.

Time passed.

Only one month remained before the version upgrade. The news of the Magic Conference was conveyed to the large continent by the top four power centers.

The news created a storm. The situation was as if a meteor had fallen into the ocean. Everyone was excited. It attracted a lot of attention, and many professionals participated in the event.

The Magic Conference had four categories: North, South, East, and West.

Each category was further divided into three levels: Intermediate, Advanced, and Grandmaster.

The age of the participants for the Intermediate professional was younger than

23.

For the Advanced professional, the participants had to be younger than 30, and for the Grandmaster professional, the upper age limit was 50.

Of course, there were different ways of calculating the age of various races.

It was not feasible to compare the age of the Elves to Humans…

The location of the southern category of the competition did not lie in any country. Instead, it was situated on an island owned by the Temple of Light.

“Aren’t you going for the Magic Conference?”

“I can’t. Even though we’re both Advanced professionals, Prince William had become an Advanced professional earlier. How can we defeat Prince William?” Many professionals of the City of Dawn were busy discussing the Magic Conference.

Advanced professionals were no longer rare, and their numbers rapidly increased.

When the players would return to the game, they would be in for a shock.

With the resurgence of magic and after William obtained numerous magical stones from the Moonlight Elves’ treasure vault, his confidantes who had been training at Stormy Island for a long time were close to attaining the Advanced level.

William noticed that many of his subordinates were catching up with him.

He was getting worried, but the Magic Conference was a good opportunity for him to upgrade to the Grandmaster level.

If he was able to clinch the top spots, he would be awarded S+ missions. The rewards would be generous.

The City of Dawn was sending the following contestants: William, Burned Cinder, Annie, Diablo, and Alec.

Although Xiyan, Lautner, Odom, and Violent Dragon were all legendary BOSSES, they were either not interested in the contest or over the age limit…

William headed to the Temple of Light within the city to register for the competition.

“Five registrations for the contest.” William placed 500 gold coins on the table.

“Lord William?” When the registration professional noticed William, he did not dare to accept the money. He just smiled. “It’s free. Lord William is fighting for the City of Dawn, so we are not charging for the registrations.”

“By the way, who will be taking part? I’ll take note of their names.”

William took back his money pouch and provided the names.

“These are the five registration tokens. Please keep them carefully, Lord William.”

“Since the registrations are free, give me the list of contestants from the southern region and their information to me.”

“Ah?”

“Pa!” The Temple Messenger of the City of Dawn slapped the registrant and sent him flying. He reprimanded the registrant sternly, “Why are you hesitating? Get lost!”

The Temple Messenger cordially smiled at William and passed him the name list. “He’s an ignorant newcomer. Please don’t hold it against him, my lord.”

William patted his shoulders. “You’re smart. I haven’t spent any money in the City of Dawn yet. I’ll leave with the information. If there are any problems, look for Odom. I think you’ll be fine. The dark creatures cannot infiltrate the City of Dawn.”

“Yes, yes! Lord William is wise.” The Temple Messenger made sure that William was out of sight before he slumped crying in his chair. “MD, it’s free for you, but I have to pay the difference with my money.”

The truth was that there were no dark creatures in the City of Dawn.

The Dawn Army was very particular about law and order in the city. Hence, the security was much better in the City of Dawn as compared to other cities.

All criminal behavior would be severely dealt with.

The reason was that the Elves formed the management level…

When anyone had the slightest intention to bribe the righteous Elves, they would be arrested and forced to work in the mines.

There were no death penalties or punishments in the City of Dawn.

But it should not be taken in the wrong light.

All criminals of the City of Dawn had to work in the mines!

The duration ranged from a month to a lifetime…

The evil-doers had to work in the mines forever.

The Darkness Invasion had taken a great toll on the city, and the prisoners mostly worked in the wilderness.

The commoners of the City of Dawn would not summon any devils. Hence, the clerics of the Temple of Light did not have any income. They had to find other means of survival.

William was not concerned about the Temple Messenger. He had made a great profit after saving his registration fees and obtaining valuable information.

He would never spend a cent in the city.

When William arrived at the central plaza, the commoners gave up their pavilion to him.

William lay on the long bench and examined the list of seed contestants and powerful professionals for the first competition.

Some young ladies who were standing by the side admired the peerless appeal of the city lord…

“Tsk, tsk! There are only 30 worthy contestants in the southern region, and they are quite mediocre. Seems like the quality of the first Magic Conference is not as good as the second one.”

William skipped the number 11-30 on the list.

He was more interested in the top ten.

He wished to know if there were any famous NPCs.

He recognized several familiar BOSSES, but they had been defeated by the players many times…

{Tenth Contestant: Marl Cloud.

He is a cannon gunner from the Red Fire Kingdom. His long-distance capability is superior, and his damage is devastating. As he has magical equipment, his endurance and durability are extremely high.

Weakness: He is vulnerable to close-combat.}

“He’s filthy rich!” That was William’s opinion of the cannon gunners. However, in his previous life, he had not encountered this cannon gunner.

{Ninth Contestant: Gugas Bell.

He is a wrestler from the Desert Kingdom with extraordinary close-combat skills. His alias is Blood Hands. He has a pair of steel-like hands that could shred armor. There are battle records of him tearing up his opponents.

Weakness: He is vulnerable to mental and long-distance attacks.}

{Eighth Contestant…

William was not interested in the fourth to eighth contestants as he was very familiar with their statistics.

But with the top three contestants, it was different.

He had heard about their fame…

{Third Contestant: Sardin Peak

Country: Unknown.

Power Center: Individual mercenary

Occupation: Fist-fighting warrior

He has the attributes of Light, and his fighting style is wild. His defenses are strong, while he also has powerful offensive capabilities. He possesses a boomerang-like weapon that he can toss out.

Weakness: Comparatively slower. It is only a relative comparison. Do not take it seriously.

Strength: His defensive and offensive capabilities are very strong.}

“He was an awesome professional in my previous life. He can be my worthy opponent, a Black Dragon.”

When William saw the second name…

He smiled.

It was his name.

The Temple of Light had predicted that he would take part in the Magic Conference.

{Second Contestant: William Blackleaf.

From the City of Dawn.

Race: Half-Elf

Occupation: He seems like a ranger who is specialized in Soul Magic.

Identity: Blackleaf Elven prince, Lord of the City of Dawn, Dragon Slayer, Captain of Dawn Mercenary Team.

Combat Intelligence: Slain the Intermediate Fire Dragon at the snow mountains of the East Sea. Killed many Advanced devils. The only city lord who defeated the Darkness Invasion in the nine continents.

Combat Style: Well versed in long-distance and close-combat.

Weakness: Very few vulnerabilities with the exception of mental and magical attacks.

Strength: Rich. Very rich. As a city lord, he will be armed to the teeth in the competition. His weaknesses will be negated.}

William was shocked and even bewildered by the first contestant.

It was a super-powerful professional who should not have appeared in the southern region.

He was the reincarnation of a God!
