Players are coming, fortunately I have a time travel simulator

So strong!

Zhou Ning couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth, feeling sincerely that he had made a fortune this time.

The effect of Adam's cross can provide oneself with a "fantasy" authority. Zhou Ning feels that it is a bit like a combination of "dream" and "creation" authority, but this accommodation ceremony seems a bit complicated.

Let the development of the times conform to your own expectations, and then accommodate it at key points within the prescribed trend of the times.

If we have to say it, the steam engine in this world is the main symbol of the first scientific and technological revolution, marking the entry of mankind into the steam age.

Does this era of development refer to the second scientific and technological revolution? Its main feature is the widespread use of electricity.

Developing electricity wasn't difficult for me, just a bit challenging. The hard part was promoting it, leading the world into the electrical age.

It would inevitably consume a great deal of energy, manpower, and material resources, and in this technological age, the requirements of the ritual might not be met. Zhou Ning wasn't sure if it was worth it to accommodate this uniqueness.

As for how to advance scientific and technological development, Zhou Ning already has a general idea.

He planned to leave a clone in Dulles City, and at the same time summon scholars from the Knowledge Council to advance the ceremony together, and then take it one step at a time.

As for the origin of the world... Zhou Ning took it out. It was a small, translucent metallic crystal that looked very similar to the godhead, but its aura was more ancient and mysterious.

Zhou Ning raised his eyebrows unconsciously and tried to carefully probe his divinity into the crystal.

Inside, he could sense small, floating white dots, stacked one on top of the other, even wriggling constantly, attempting to repair himself. This reminded Zhou Ning of the King's Soul he had brought back from the Fire Thief, which also had similar characteristics.

It seems that my guess is correct. The origin of the world, the source of essence, and the king's soul are essentially the same thing.

According to the description, this thing has a mild and removable pollution property, and is one of the necessary elements for upgrading to a complete old age.

There was indeed some pollution, but Zhou Ning could not sense its function in helping him advance.

So is it possible that when this thing repairs itself to a certain degree, it can become the key factor in its advancement to the old days?

After a little thought, Zhou Ning solemnly put the origin of the world into a box and put it back into the inventory.

This thing may be more important than you think.

After doing all this, Zhou Ning breathed a sigh of relief and opened the task bar. In the previous world, the twelfth part of the "Battle Maniac" series of tasks, which required defeating three old-level opponents, had been completed.

I originally thought that this task was difficult, after all, opponents at the level of the Old Ones are hard to come by. However, I didn’t expect that it could be completed quickly in just 1,2 or worlds.

[Battle Maniac XII]: As a battle maniac, you have always been keen on challenging yourself. Please fight against powerful beings of no less level than the old ones in the simulation world and win the battle (3/3)

[Task Tips]: This is the last series of tasks in the War Madness series. Even if you choose the right template and travel through the right world, completing this task still requires a lot of luck.

Mission rewards: random rewards.

After completing this round of tasks, this series of tasks will continue, but the content of the tasks will change again.

[Battle Maniac XIII]: As a battle maniac, you have always been keen on challenging yourself. Please fight against powerful beings of no less level than the old ones in the simulation world and win the battle (3/6)

[Task Tips]: This is the last series of tasks in the War Madness series. Even if you choose the right template and travel through the right world, completing this task still requires a lot of luck.

Zhou Ning chose to receive the reward.

[Randomly drawing... Your rewards this time are: All categories (items/skills/feats) (Battle Maniacs only). Note: The rewards for hidden quests will be as close to your current strength as possible.]

【You can choose one of the following six options as a reward. 】

[Please choose one of the following six skills/features/items as a reward:]

1. [Victory's Wisdom] - God-level Expertise: This exclusive expertise comes from the God of War, Broomfield. You possess unprecedented and unparalleled insights into how to achieve victory in battle. You gain the skill: Victory's Wisdom. Using this skill significantly enhances your wisdom in war and combat, while also granting a significant bonus to your spirituality (divinity). Each time you use Victory's Wisdom and achieve victory, your attack and defense each increase by 15 points.

2. [Wrath of the God of War] - Power Skill: Defeat the power usurped by the disobedient Ares and transform into a War Titan, gaining Ares's divine martial arts and war power. The ultimate transformation is into a mighty Titan, meters tall, meters wide at the shoulders, clad in armor, wielding a spear and torch, and accompanied by hounds and hawks.

3. [Shoot a Hundred Heads] - Top-tier Miracle Item: Hercules' Noble Phantasm, used to slay the immortal nine-headed Hydra, is a versatile weapon capable of changing shape depending on the target. Initially shaped like a bow and arrow, it can simultaneously fire nine dragon-shaped homing lasers. Its essence is "a nine-hit combo, unleashed at such high speed that all attacks overlap." This move's performance is identical whether delivered with a sword, spear, or axe.

[4. [Soldier] - Ritual Recipe: Can create humanoid weapons based on the Chiyou brothers. The First Emperor used this recipe to create twelve golden men. Creating one requires at least 60 tons of mithril. The finished product is equivalent to a god, and up to twelve can be created. It can repair damage by consuming sand, stone, and metal, enhancing its strength and allowing it to be used to create weapons.]

[5. [Horn of the God of War] - Quasi-artifact: One of the War God's weapons, Bloomfield, the God of War, can be used to designate the start of a war. When the horn sounds, any warrior who hears it will gain the power to transcend fear, transcend death, and destroy the wall of limit. This power lasts for three days. Side effect: Warriors who hear the horn will never stop fighting until one side is dead.]

[6. [Seventy-two Transformations of the Earthly Fiends] - Special Skill: A powerful spell passed down by Patriarch Bodhi. In the mythological world, this spell can be used to avoid damage from the three disasters of heavenly thunder, Yin fire, and Bei wind. It can also transform into various forms in any world, including humans, animals, plants, and even inanimate objects.]

"...It's a familiar recipe, a familiar taste."

After looking through the six options in the reward, Zhou Ning pondered for a moment.

This series of hidden tasks is the most in-depth hidden task Zhou Ning has ever done, and it should be almost finished.

This may also be due to the new expertise, Favored by the Era, which is a reward for the twelfth round and is of very high quality.

In addition to shooting down a hundred heads, the rewards this time are all good things from various war gods, which are really tempting.

The first option, Wisdom of Victory, is an extremely rare god-level expertise. The accompanying skills are also powerful BUFF skills, and they are also noble and cool growth skills. It can be used as an alternative first.
