《Tales of the Rebirth Apocalypse Emperor (BL)》Chapter 31: Unexpected rewards
Advertisement
Now, all the threats had been eliminated and, before Murong got a chance to look around the scene, the sound of the system rang up in everyone's mind.
"Ding! Congratulations! Mission accomplished. You have eliminated the Maldreg tribe within the time limit. You will be teleported back outside the dungeon in fifteen minutes. If you would like to get out of here sooner, you could go back to use the dungeon portal."
"Ding! You can choose one of the three rewards from clearing this dungeon."
"Ding! Please select one of the choices below.
1. Awakening spiritual sense
2. Soldier rank random item
3. Profession changing: Psychic, Formation master, Crafter (The font color is ranged from red to green. The green color means you are perfectly suitable for this profession. You could change your profession on the red color font, but it is not recommended.)
Murong told the three soldiers to choose option three and asked what color did they get to collect the information. It turned out that everyone got red color. What a shame! It would be nice if some of them had these professions so that they could change their professions here in the future. Now, they had to find another dungeon for these guys to change their professions.
Then, Murong glanced at Dawei to see how he was doing. He knew right away that Dawei had already selected the second option. He saw Dawei holding a shinny white grove in his hand with care, thinking something. Murong then chose the second option too. There was no point in waiting. The moment he chose the second option, the steel sword appeared in the air, slowly floating to him. He reached his right hand to catch it, and its properties appeared in his mind.
----------------------------------------------------------
Item status
Name: Steel sword
Advertisement
Class: Soldier
Grade: D
Passive skill: Increase physical attack +4 level
No cooldown limits.
----------------------------------------------------------
'Oh, the reward this time isn't as good as I thought it would be,' Murong thought. 'It is even worse than the sword I got from that warrior goblin. No wonder Dawei didn't say anything."
However, the reality was far from Murong's thoughts. It was quite the opposite. The reason Dawei hadn't say anything yet because he was in shock at how good the item was.
After Murong kept the sword into his space ring, he then asked his brother, Dawei.
"So, what is it? You seemed quiet this time."
"Take a look by yourselves," Dawei said as he handed the glove to Murong to see.
As soon as Murong touched the glove, the details of the item were revealed to him.
----------------------------------------------------------
Item status
Name: Crystal fiber glove. The glove was made of crystal fiber from a very rare plant in the Langarian realm.
Class: Soldier
Grade: SSS
Passive skill:
1) Increase spiritual attack +9 level
2) Increase spiritual energy accumulation from the environment by 50%
Active skill:
1) Attractive force manipulation (Can make any objects which are located within 1-meter diameter spherical field around the user flying to the glove with no cooldown limits)
2) Gravity manipulation (Can make any objects subjected to one-tenth to ten times of normal gravity as long as the objects were within a 1-meter diameter spherical field around the user. Limit to 10 minutes every 24 hours.)
3) History revelation. (Revealed the history of the touched object for the past 24 hrs. Limit to once every 24 hours.)
Restriction: Psychic related profession
----------------------------------------------------------
'My god! SSS grade!' Murong was extremely excited. This kind of grade was super rare even in his past life, and most people who got them definitely didn't announce it for other people to know.

When he carefully looked more at the details of the items, he couldn't stop smiling. The skills were really cool and really matched with Dawei's style. With this skill, Dawei would no doubt be the number one psychic user at the beginning of the apocalypse in the future for sure. No one could compete with him. Even at the later stage of the apocalypse, this item was definitely still useful.
In addition, Murong thought that it was very effective and convenient to obtain secret information from the enemy using this "History revelation." The enemy might not suspect a thing because it was just a touch.
Murong signed with relief. No wonder his item was not good despite the fact that the dungeon was so tricky, and we were even the first group to clear it. It seemed the luck in getting his item had been transferred to Dawei. But, he was happy for him nonetheless.
'It would be better this way, I guess,' Murong thought. 'One good item is definitely better than two ordinary items.'
So, the next step was to wait for the system to teleport them out. However, Murong suddenly remembered that warlock goblin's corpse. He walked back to that corpse and tried to find the totem staff that the warlock goblin used. After looking around and flipping the remains of the half-corpse, he finally found what he was looking for.
----------------------------------------------------------
Item status
Name: Goblin's totem
Class: Soldier
Grade: C
Passive skill: Increase physical attack of the spell +5 level
No cooldown limits.
----------------------------------------------------------
'Well, it is not bad,' Murong thought. 'Even though it is worse than the golden phoenix wand that we have already gotten, it has no profession limit. Other people could use it, or we could sell it.'
As Murong was thinking about all the items that he had collected so far, Chen Wuya's trio approached him.
Chen Juren then spoke to Murong. "Er...Young master. We know that you don't want us to ask but... we kind of hope that you could clarify something more about those things we heard."
"If not, it was also ok for us.", Chen Juren also hurried added, knowing that this was a sensitive question.
Murong looked at the three. Evidently, Chen Liang and Chen Wuya also definitely would like to know from their poorly hidden eager look. However, because of their usual reserved personality, they still kept themselves quiet and let Chen Juren be the one who talked.
"Very well. You guys definitely earned it. And I trust you guys." Murong said. "It was a complicated story. For now, let's just say our family found this new phenomenon due to our secret research, and we tried to take advantage of it without revealing it to the outside world just yet. You would imagine how much profit we could get, right?"
The three nodded in unison. "Yes, young master."
"As you can see, we could develop ourselves. Got some special items if we clear this dungeon. However, it comes with a risk. You could see that it was dangerous as well." Murong added and continued. "However, no good profit without taking a risk."
What Murong said did make sense to them. Then, the trio didn't have any more questions. So, after Murong finished explaining to the three, the fifteen minutes were up. They then teleported back to the dungeon portal, ending the exciting and mysterious day for the trios.

Dungeon Core? Nah, I Think I'll Just Get Super-Wealthy Instead
The cycle is simple enough. A Dungeon Core is born from a wayward soul. It seeks power and agency, and works to accumulate wealth to fuel its power, in turn using this power to accumulate further wealth. Inevitably, the mind is lost as desperation and ambition drive it to commit darker and darker acts. Shortly thereafter, the adventurers arrive to quell the core. This is a tale that has repeated itself countless times throughout history: all cores desire power. And yet, this core seems to have it backwards. It doesn't want to rule the world. It has no desire to enslave or conquer. No, this core doesn't want to be a warlord, a villain, or a tyrant. It wants to start a core-poration. After all, when money is power, what greater weapon is there than capitalism? Join a dungeon core that wastes an absurd amount of time and effort trying not to be evil on his journey to earn fat stacks against all odds. -This is a 'Dungeon Core' type fiction with LitRPG elements in it. The start may be fairly slow compared to the average. Expect roughly 2.5k per chapter. -I'm only a hobbyist writer. As such, there may be the occasional error and pacing may be poorly-handled. Constructive criticism is alway welcome. I'm just here to write stuff that makes my brain release the g o o d c h e m i c a l s. -I am trashy and I like monsterpeople so you can expect an awful lot of those as we get further in. Thank you for reading this far, and I hope you enjoy.

Agros de Mortis
Are things ever so crystal clear in life, those of us with experience know that it can be considered a blessing to have such a straight forward path in life. Sometimes things go right, sometimes something occurs that was simply never imagined. Sometimes life seems to flow so quickly but sometimes it just seems stuck, cursed to repeat itself. Cycles upon cycles we see around us, but perhaps in only a moment things change. Can this be stopped or do we even want it to be stopped? Are things always as evil as they seem, or are they so similar that we find it painful. Come visit this little spot and decide for yourself what you interpret this is... _________________________________________________ This fiction is a mix of many things and for simplicity sake is the story of one man's rise to power in a fashion fit be called a demon lord. Ever read all those novels where you get a here is this bad guy we called you here to go deal with by the power of our god so here is some magic and training go kill em. Here is the other side's view of their rise to power in a fashion that perhaps seems evil, perhaps not. Is our MC truly that evil or is he simply following what he feels like is best for him, who is to say that he is truly a blight aganist the gods for surely it is not so simple in life. This will have some elements of dungeon building but it takes mostly a back seat to things as a background thing, a weak to strong theme well yeah but it won't really be personal power since we are doing what is essentially nation building. Don't worry there will be no romance as a main theme, if you find any it is unintentional or simply a very minor element overall, hopefully won't be any of the social/relationship gender issues from last time for those that read my first ficiton since that really is not what I want the story to be about. Progress in story is a bit of a mix of fast and slow I felt overall for the story, time skips were short and things piled up quickly then calmed down before building up again. Not sure how I did with characterizing and writing some concepts but at least I wanted people to think a little. Some attempt to keep things realistic to a degree considering you know magic since I wanted a bit more depth to things. Come check out the story and decide for yourself how you feel about some things.
