Pillar of Yita

Chapter 105: Ranking_3


But Fang Hong suddenly felt somewhat dizzy because he suddenly remembered his own achievements—he glanced doubtfully at the blackened metal sphere, wondering if the world behind this door had mistaken his achievements.

One hundred and sixty percent, was it because his assessment was too simple that placing him among these dazzling names seemed too much.

He seemed to only now realize a real possibility, which was that his name could appear above every name here, and Fang Hong's heart couldn't help but beat faster for a moment. Because no matter how mature and steady he learned to be, he was ultimately still a confused and unknown young man.

He seemed unprepared, was he just standing side by side with these legendary names, the ones he once only looked up to in the community?

In a daze, he saw the emblem of Loofah.

A somewhat peculiar symbol.

"What is that?" he couldn't help but ask the well-informed Miss Tata subconsciously.

"It has two names and belonging, one is the name in our world and the other in your world, which one do you want to hear?" Miss Tata replied: "Mr. Knight."

"Of course, the one from our world, I wouldn't understand yours." Fang Hong answered quietly.

"It is the Cucurbitaceae family, in the Luffa genus of the dicotyledonous plants."

Fang Hong listened in a fog, with a face full of question marks: "???" He swallowed and asked, "So?"

"It's a loofah vine."

"..."

And it was at this moment that the voice inside the metal sphere reminded him: "Participant, please choose your emblem."

His emblem?

Fang Hong then was slightly stunned, he looked at the dazzling names on the metal slate, confirming after a while that it was real and not a dream. He took a breath, his emblem, of course, there is only one.

That is the origin of his name.

Sword Hong.

He simply described the appearance of that emblem to the sphere. He originally thought the other party wouldn't understand, but unexpectedly, before he finished speaking, the monotonous voice inside the sphere replied: "Long-Tailed Sword Sparrow, genus Sword Hong."

Fang Hong was taken aback, thinking are aliens now so knowledgeable about Earth, making it really difficult for them transmigrators. But on reflection, after all, this is the Silver Tower, the museum of all things, a place where scholars gather.

If these scholars didn't even have this bit of understanding of their world, they wouldn't be worthy of being called scholars.

So he nodded.

The metal sphere turned aside, shooting a thin red beam from the black pillar stone, the beam seemed to bypass the constraints of space, landing directly on the virtual image of that metal slab, engraving Fang Hong's ID and his designated emblem.

In just a moment, it was completed successfully.

But Fang Hong pointed at the emblem and asked: "This is clearly a pigeon."

"This is the Long-Tailed Sword Sparrow." the metal sphere firmly answered.

"Wait," Fang Hong called out, but it was to no avail, after answering, the metal sphere drifted away. Fang Hong couldn't help but a bit angrily point at the pattern and said to Miss Tata: "Seek justice, Miss Tata, this is clearly a pigeon."

"This is the Long-Tailed Sword Sparrow," Miss Tata quietly answered: "Mr. Knight."

Fang Hong was momentarily speechless.

After the little interlude, the rewards from the Red Gate arrived as expected, with three lines of text appearing on the system:

'Lord's Gate—'

'Character Calculative Power increased by 5%.'

'Character gained 21350 points of Cognitive Experience.'

The experience amount was more than before, not knowing if it was due to high completion of the infinite challenge, but he also asked, and one hundred and sixty percent completion didn't entitle him to more rewards than others.

The Red Gate, as long as cleared, everyone's rewards were the same, considered fair and unbiased.

However, in this reward, the effect description concerning skill level elevation surprised Fang Hong a little—it was unlike the previous Red Gate, which clearly stated the effect of increasing character artisan skills (prefix basic, related to alchemy) by one level.

Instead, it asked him whether to apply the skill elevation effect on the 'Lord's Gate' reward. And this prompt also stated, in the following four Red Gates, only one door's reward could gain this skill elevation effect.

Meaning, if he chose here, the subsequent few red gateways would no longer receive this type of elevation. But if he doesn't choose here, first, there's the risk of completely losing this skill enhancement opportunity; even if reaching the next Red Gate and passing its test.

He couldn't go back and apply this effect to the 'Lord's Gate' skill enhancement, hence once given up, it's permanently given up.

Simultaneously, it was obvious different gateways represented different skill domains. Just like the first Red Gate represented the domain of the artisan's basic skills and ether theory, and the Lord's Gate, Fang Hong could imagine representing the branch of construct lord skills.

He actually had a guess in his heart when passing this assessment.

Extreme Multicontrol is the core thinking of being a Construct Lord.

And the upcoming gateways could also be deduced along this thought—it is likely related to the Supreme One, Immortal Knight, or Controllers (Fairy Master). And although he also has Fairy Master's abilities, Fairy Master isn't really his profession but Miss Tata's, so he doesn't need to enhance related skills.

As for the Immortal Knight and Supreme One, they're further away from him, hence his first choice is still Construct Lord.

But just as Fang Hong was about to make a decision, at this moment, he heard a voice coming from within his mind: "I suggest you don't make such a rash decision—"

Hearing this unfamiliar voice, Fang Hong was slightly stunned.

And his hand's movements naturally stopped involuntarily.
