“What?! ” Ling Yi was stunned when he saw the notification.

‘So God’s Path has its own world announcement feature!?‘

He had never seen anyone mention it on the forum before or heard anyone say it.

He had always assumed that all information came from other players or people whose jobs were meant to cover the big news, like the Global Weekly.

Who knew that fusing a 10 Star Skill could trigger such an event?

“I fused a 10 Star Skill!”

Although he had hypothesized that the outcome of this fusion would result in a 10 Star Skill, he couldn’t help but still bulk in pleasant surprise when he was proven right.

If he could mutate it into a higher Star level, that would be even better!

Now thinking back to all the mutations he did in these past few days, the higher the Star level or quality, the higher the mutation potential it will become!

But now is the time for him to make his decision.

Looking at the 1 and 2 options in front of him, Ling Yi didn’t hesitate to choose the second option.

As soon as he clicked his decision, another message popped up.

[Are you sure you want to use the forum name “01 ” as a common announcement name?]

“Uh… does this mean that I’ll use this name in other future announcements?” Ling Yi wondered quietly to himself.

He realized that based on his current development, it seemed like he could continue to be on the public announcements in the future.

He chose ‘confirm’ again.

In the next second, a clear and melodious chime resounded worldwide.

…

Ding ding ding~

It was a relatively sunny June afternoon when it rang worldwide simultaneously.

Whether it was the students who were studying in the school, the people who were working hard in the city, the generous old men in the village, or the players who were fighting monsters in the secret realm or the God’s Path, they were all jolted back to their senses by the crisp bell that went straight to their ears.

“This… Don’t tell me it’s!”

Some of the older people were stunned for a few seconds but quickly remembered what the voice meant.

They all stopped what they were doing and looked up with anticipation and excitement, ready to hear the announcement.

“What’s that sound? Did you guys hear that?”

In the school, the younger students were looking around, eager to make a move.

“I heard it, I heard it! It was so loud!”

“I heard it once when I was young. It looks like God’s Path is announcing something…”

The students looked at their middle-aged teacher on the stage with anticipation.

“This is what many of you dream of triggering…” The teacher said, smiling at their eager faces.

On God’s Path, some players fighting against monsters stopped fighting as soon as they heard the familiar chime.

“It’s a world announcement! Someone has triggered the world announcement!”

Even though the players had different opinions racing through their minds, they were all surprised.

“Heavens! How long has it been since the last world announcement? I thought there wouldn’t be another one!”

“13 years. It’s been 13 years.”

“A world announcement after 13 years. I’m really curious about what it’s about.”

“…”

Under the anticipation of countless people around the world, the world announcement finally appeared as scheduled.

Ding ~

Another ring appeared in the sky, and a line of golden text appeared in everyone’s vision.

Following the appearance of this line of golden text, an emotionless monotonous voice suddenly resounded across the sky.

[World announcement: Congratulations to player “01” (Male) for successfully fusing the first 10 Star Skill!]

[Special Rewards: [Random Ancient Tablet voucher] x1, [A-grade item] [Experience pool] x1]

The seven to eight billion people worldwide all heard the robotic voice as it resonated worldwide.

Only after the voice finished reading the two lines of text did the announcement with the golden text slowly faded away.

And so did the announcement.

However, the excitement of the people around the world had just begun.

…

[You have received [Random Tablet Voucher] x1!]

[You have received [Experience pool (A)]!]

He watched as the information of the two God’s Path notifications faded away.

Ling Yi touched his chin as he began to think out of habit.

‘There’s a reward for the announcement? Well, I’m in.‘

The announcement’s reward was a pleasant surprise for someone like him who had never seen a world announcement before.

When asked to choose his name, he thought the announcement was just a simple one.

“F*ck! Someone has triggered the world announcement!” A cry of surprise beside him caught his attention.

Ling Yi turned his head and saw a few young men in their 20s discussing excitedly as they walked by.

“Someone managed to fuse a 10 Star Skill! This is too much!”

“Yeah! Doesn’t that mean whoever “01” guy is used two 10 Star Skills to make it? That’s some crazy brave move!”

“Actually, I’ve guessed that such a thing would happen. I just don’t understand why those top powerhouses never tried before.” A yellow-haired young man suddenly said.

The people around were stunned by his statement, staring at him dumbfoundedly.

“Then let me ask you, why didn’t you fuse them yourself?” Someone asked.

“Because I don’t have any.” The yellow-haired man replied in a matter-of-fact tone.

“Exactly. Even the top powerhouses don’t have everything…”

The group of people walked further and further away, and their voices gradually disappeared.

Ling Yi also retracted his gaze and shifted his attention to the [Aeolus’ Call] he had just achieved.

[Aeolus’ Call (10 Stars)]: Obtain the ability to generate and control the wind. The user can also ride the wind and fly.

It was the only ability to control the wind.

Skills with higher stars would have higher “control rights”. For example, if a person who learned [Howling Wind] and someone who knew [Aeolus’ Call] were to fight for wind control within the same space, the latter would definitely win.

If both sides had [Aeolus’ Call], it would be like two people fighting for a ball of marshmallow on an equal footing. Anyone had a fifty-fifty percent chance of winning.

Of course, those with higher attributes had the more significant advantage.

Ling Yi nodded indifferently when he saw the effect of the [Aeolus’ Call].

‘It’s good enough. It’s worthy of its 10 Star rating.’

Controlling the wind alone was already a 6 Star ability. But having the ability to both control the wind and fly, the skill is worth the 10 Star rating.

He looked down and focused on its potential for mutation.

[Aeolus’ Call (10 Stars) – Mutation Potential: High]

“Yes, yes, let’s go through a mutation.”

[Are you sure you want to mutate the wind god’s call? (48 mutation points required)]

“I’m sure.” Ling Yi said with certainty.

He also looked at his remaining points when he opened the ‘super mutation system’ interface.

[Current Collected Distress Points: 60] [Mutation Points: 1,516]

Recently, he had occasionally absorbed other people’s distress points and converted them into mutation points.

He thought it would drop below 1,400 points from all the mutations that he did, but it had unexpectedly remained above 1,500 points.

From the looks of it, if he didn’t deliberately use it, he might really never use everything up.

He closed the ‘Super Mutation System’ interface with satisfaction. Seeing that the [Aeolus’ Call] had returned to its clear state, he immediately clicked on it to check.

[Aeolus’ Call (10 Stars)]: Gains the ability to generate and control the wind. The user will also be able to ride the wind and fly. [In addition, you have obtained the following abilities.]

1. Can sense the surrounding environment and listen to the surrounding sounds with the help of the wind.

2. Able to transform into the wind for short-distance teleportation.
