Chapter 216 You Need a Stage
"Ignoring restrictions?"
Chen You frowned slightly.
This description is incredibly irresponsible.
Does this mean that even clones can use this to activate the "King Avatar"?
Or is it that when the Mythic skill [Reign Supreme] is on cooldown, this thing can be used as a one-time skill refresher?
Or... could it be forcibly activated in certain special scenarios, such as when someone is silenced or imprisoned?
Each guess represents a completely different tactical value.
The former is doubling combat power, while the latter is turning the tide in a desperate situation.
I don't know if it's a one-time use item, so I don't dare to try it directly.
"It seems we still need to consult a professional."
Chen You glanced around the empty Shadow Royal Court and at Xiao Dai, who was still pretending to be dead on the ground.
After confirming that nothing else was missing, he chose to exit the instance.
On this trip, we didn't get a single piece of equipment.
But it has several unique titles, plus a mythical skill and a matching mythical item.
The harvest was pretty good.
……
Thousand Lights City, the newly built King's Square.
With a ripple in space, Chen You's figure appeared out of thin air.
The moment he appeared, thousands of eyes instantly focused on him.
"Holy crap! It's Boss Chen You!"
"Alive! He's a real, living big shot!"
"Hey boss, did you put that ridiculously cool statue in the center of the square there?!"
A daring assassin player shouted at the top of his lungs.
Upon hearing this, Chen You subconsciously looked up.
In the center of the square, the shadow that had once enveloped the statue had vanished.
A colossal statue of the Shadow King, standing over 100 meters tall, is clearly visible.
The statue is clad in dark armor, wields a giant sword, wears a crown, and is surrounded by various special effects.
That was exactly how he appeared as the embodiment of a king.
On the base of the statue, a line of mysterious rune IDs shines brightly, highlighting the owner's identity.
"Hmm, I must say, he's quite handsome." Chen You stroked his chin and gave an objective assessment.
This casual remark, when it reached the ears of the surrounding players, was like a thunderclap.
What does "quite handsome" mean?
This guy practically has the word "pretentious" written all over his face!
The deathly silence was shattered in the next second.
"Hey pro! Please carry me! I can shout '666'!"
"Look at me, boss! I'm the number one healer of the Milk Clan, with fair skin, a beautiful face, and long legs..."
"Get lost! Vulgar! Boss, I'm a master blacksmith from the Blacksmith Clan. Just say the word, and I'll immediately betray my tribe and work for you as a blacksmith!"
The crowd went crazy.
Thousands of players, as if injected with adrenaline, surged toward Chen You, trying to make a name for themselves in front of him.
Looking at the chaotic scene before him, comparable to the Spring Festival travel rush, Chen You frowned even more deeply.
trouble.
Too much trouble.
Just a second before countless players were about to completely overwhelm him, he expressionlessly pulled out a talisman paper that rippled with spatial energy.
[Return to Town Scroll].
Amidst everyone's astonished gazes, Chen You set it on fire.
"Buzz—!"
As the power of space surged, his figure instantly became illusory and disappeared from the spot.
The entire King's Square fell into a deathly silence once again.
All the players froze on the spot, looking at each other blankly, their minds completely blank.
After a good ten seconds, someone murmured in a sleepwalking tone:
"He...he just...used a return scroll?"
"It seems... right?" the other person replied uncertainly.
"A Town Portal Scroll costs 1 gold coin... just to teleport from King's Square to the Central Teleportation Square a few hundred meters away?"
"The world of the big shots... are we a little out of their league?"
"No, you understand!"
A warrior player slapped his thigh suddenly, his eyes filled with the fervor of someone who had just achieved enlightenment.
"This is the right way to use a super-rich person's time! Time is money, friends!"
"In the eyes of a master, the four hours it takes to walk a few hundred meters might be more valuable than a hundred return scrolls!"
Upon hearing this, the surrounding players all showed expressions of sudden realization.
That's it!
pattern!
This is the vision of a true leader!
Is there any possibility?
One player with four ears muttered to himself, "Is the pro a little slow?"
In an instant, all the players around him focused their attention on him, their faces full of hostility.
Some had even drawn their weapons.
"No, I was just kidding. I'm just not smart enough, I'm an idiot!"
……
On the other side, Chen You appeared in the central teleportation plaza of Thousand Light City.
He didn't care at all about how the players had interpreted his actions as some kind of "god-level understanding."
He simply felt that spending 1 gold coin to avoid the trouble of being surrounded and pushed around was a good deal.
With practiced ease, Chen You summoned his giant rabbit mount and sped away, quickly returning to the familiar hall of the Supreme Tower.
Hill remained behind the counter, a professional smile on his face, as if it had never changed.
"Dear VIP member, it seems you have brought another little 'surprise' to the Origin Realm."
She spoke with a smile, a hint of mockery in her eyes.
"Stop talking nonsense."
Chen You walked straight to the counter and slammed the [King's Heart] on the table with a "thud".
"What's this thing for? The instruction manual is written like a riddle, I have to do reading comprehension for it."
Hill's gaze fell on [King's Heart], and his smile grew even wider.
"Its description is very clear, isn't it?" Hill's fingertips traced across the King's Heart.
A faint light rippled across the dark purple surface, as if responding to her touch.
"Ignoring restrictions" is exactly what it sounds like.
Chen You's brows furrowed into a deep frown.
I feel like Hill is a top-notch scholar of nonsense.
"Let me rephrase the question." He took a deep breath. "[Reign of the World] has a cooldown period."
"Can this item allow me to use a skill again when it's on cooldown?"
This is the most direct understanding.
An item that can refresh the cooldown of mythical skills can be enough to turn the tide of battle at crucial moments.
However, Hill smiled and shook his head.
"no."
Chen You's eyelids twitched, and a bad premonition began to spread in his heart.
"That means... it can be forcibly activated when I'm silenced, stunned, or unable to cast spells?"
Hill shook his head again, his smile unchanged: "Not really."
"Can the clone be used?"
"cannot."
Chen You's face darkened completely.
Her voice carried a hint of impatience, "You can't just ignore the fact that I don't have money in my pocket, can you?"
Hill seemed amused by his statement, her eyes curving into beautiful crescents.
"Dear VIP member, you have a truly rich imagination. However, you may have been thinking in the wrong direction from the very beginning."
"What do you mean?"
Seemingly to look more serious, Hill tucked her sideburns behind her ears.
"Before you know what it means to ignore restrictions, you need to know what restrictions are."
"..."
Is not this nonsensical?
Seeing that Chen You was about to explode, Hill hurriedly added, "The use of the monarch's power requires a 'trigger'."
"【Ruling the World】is not an ability you can use whenever you want; it... requires a specific 'stage'."
