“He could take his place!”

“Wait, what would happen if there were two protagonists?” Qin Muye suddenly remembered something, he still had a Child of Destiny in his Supplies Warehouse. What if he brought it out–would things go awry? Although Ji Shan was currently an egg, it still possessed the abilities it should have.

“And this main quest, it’s just too damn easy. All you have to do is follow the protagonist honestly, and basically, there are no problems.”

“It fits the three temporary skills quite well.”

“I could join in the fun and see what kind of Heroic Spirit I can awaken. Who knows, I might gain quite a lot.” Qin Muye thought about it; he could go and take a look. It should just be starting, so there was a high chance that there was no role for him yet.

“The Spirit Summoning Ceremony is tomorrow, so should I join in the excitement and follow the plot?”

“What about the extras then? Are the temporary skills even more heaven-defying?”

“No wonder the probability is so low. As long as you have a good relationship with the protagonist, you basically don’t have to worry about safety issues. They even provide opportunities to keep up with the protagonist. They block dangers for you, and upon reuniting, provide plot events. This is too outrageous.”

“You call this a Supporting Character? Even the protagonist isn’t as ‘Long Aotian’ as this…” Qin Muye was shocked, the three temporary skills were just ridiculously over the top.

“Oh, it seems that under normal circumstances, the relationship between the protagonist and the supporting characters is indeed like this. No matter how fast the protagonist levels up, how outrageous the Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures they use, or how strong the Cultivation Techniques they practice, their surrounding characters always seem to keep up, and even when these supporting characters have problems, the protagonist happens to be there to help them.”

“If it really comes to it, I could even become the apocalyptic disaster. After all, the only requirement is that I survive, there’s no specific form that the apocalypse needs to take.”

“Having fast internet is great, but now a small problem has arisen…”

“I’m not the protagonist, so the likelihood of awakening at the Soldier Level or being an unremarkable level is not high, and since I’m facing the protagonist positively, the chances are mostly at the General or Marshal Ranks.”

“Will sucking in this world pose a threat to the apocalyptic disaster, causing issues with the main quest line?”

“Never mind that for now, let’s just bring my domain in first. It’s a bit uncomfortable without the Star Array.”

[Your actions before the arrival of the great calamity will be judged, and the Evaluation will affect the final rewards.]

[Defense Enhancement: Improve the defensive power of all your troops and heroes (Rank x 10%) points.]

[Fate Corner: When you form essential bonds with the protagonist/Child of Destiny, whenever you encounter danger or unsolvable problems, they will definitely involve themselves and solve the issues for you due to the causal link.]

[You have obtained the temporary skills: Positive Supporting Character, Fate Corner, Vortex Center.]

[You have obtained the identity of a Supporting Character.]

[You have used the Random Dungeon Scroll, this time the instance world is: Number 1341 Spirit Summoning Plane.]

[Vortex Center: When you separate from the protagonist/Child of Destiny for a period of time and meet again, an event with you at the center will surely be triggered, whether it be positive or negative.]

[Survive the apocalyptic disaster, reward: Lord Skill*Defense Enhancement.]

[Positive Supporting Character: When you form corresponding causality with the protagonist/Child of Destiny, every time they gain an opportunity, you will accumulate the corresponding fortunes until all the fortunes are cashed in, ensuring your strength does not lag too far behind the protagonist/Child of Destiny.]

[Your identity is being randomized, this time the rates are: Protagonist (99%), Supporting Character (0.5%), Extra (0.5%).]

[Main quest issued.]

Besides that, possessing nothing, but also having the benefit of living a very peaceful life, without any face-slapping, provocations, deliberate deductions…

According to the memories of his past life, Heroic Spirits are divided into five Ranks: Unremarkable, Soldier, General, Marshal, King, Emperor, and Emperor Grade. These five Ranks represent the potential of a Heroic Spirit; the higher the potential, the greater the upper limit of their growth.

Of course, after becoming a Spirit Summoner, one also enjoys more benefits, depending on the Rank of the Heroic Spirits they summon.

Of course, things are not so absolute. Speaking of limits, it’s more like a bottleneck because the Rank of a Heroic Spirit represents their potential. Once the potential is exhausted, one can no longer advance smoothly and must strive on their own, and that’s the bottleneck.

Regarding the completion methods for these activities and main quests, Qin Muye had a fallback theory, “If the world no longer exists, the quests would certainly be completed too.”

He then received information about his identity and the state of this world.

After that, the upper limit for the King Level was Seventh Grade, the Marshal Level had plummeted to Fifth Grade, General Level was Third Grade, and Soldier Level was at the very least First Grade; as for those below, whether they could even achieve a rank was questionable.

He was also curious about the Heroic Spirits, especially their origins, how each of them came into being, and so forth; he wanted to delve into these mysteries.

Naturally, Spirit Summoners also had ranks, which were arranged in ascending order from one to nine, with Ninth Grade being the highest and First Grade the lowest.

The upper limit for Emperor Level Heroic Spirits could reach Eighth Grade, and reaching Ninth Grade would depend on the environment, experiences, and so on.

Without the Endless Abyss, Qin Muye’s intrusion might not have counted for much, but with it, he would be ruthlessly decisive.

Every rank of Heroic Spirit could represent the upper limit for a Spirit Summoner; for instance, with an Emperor Grade Heroic Spirit, as long as it didn’t fall, the Summoner was bound to be a Ninth Grade Spirit Summoner.

His predecessor was named Wang Mu, an apprentice Spirit Summoner commoner and a student at the Spirit Summoning Academy, who hadn’t yet officially performed the Spirit Summoning Ceremony to awaken his own Heroic Spirit.

Qin Muye’s Perception discreetly swept over the entire instance world. Detecting the highest strength at the 7th tier, it led him to deduce the probable existence of the 8th tier, so he couldn’t afford to be reckless; he needed either to develop for a while or simply to rely on the protagonist to kill the 8th tier.

Qin Muye felt that he had been at a great loss in his previous instances; the role of a supporting character was simply invincibly strong.

The region Qin Muye was in was actually, if one considered it, the protagonist’s starting mini-map, so there were no powerful individuals. Otherwise, with the protagonist showing off and slapping faces right from the start in an end-game map filled with strong figures, how could the protagonist develop?

Qin Muye found a concealed location and directly summoned the Endless Abyss there.

As for his identity, he was an orphan with deceased parents who, due to his qualifications as a Spirit Summoner, was taken in by the Court at an early age for training and grew up with unwavering Loyalty to the Court.

Although his quality of life wasn’t as good as that of kings or nobles, it was comparable to that of ordinary people, at least he didn’t have to worry about food and drink.

After completing his adjustments, he rooted himself in this world.

So if he really did manage to eradicate the apocalyptic calamity, Qin Muye could personally take the field to play the part, as destroying worlds wasn’t new to him.

He was certain that tomorrow the protagonist would definitely appear at the Spirit Summoning Ceremony, he just didn’t know if it would be in the spotlight or subject to public ridicule.

He preferred not to resort to force if it could be avoided, always desiring to extract the greatest possible benefit without violence.

For example, the lowliest of Heroic Spirits lacked even spiritual intelligence and were considered trash, with virtually no room for growth. They likely couldn’t even assist a Spirit Summoner in reaching First Grade; the chances were they would never become Entry Grade Spirit Summoners.

For orphans like him, the prospects were vast, as they were brought up by the Court from a young age, with a clear family background. Once they graduated from the Spirit Summoner Academy, they would directly enter the Court to take up official duties.

After all, people themselves were a type of resource, like Skeleton Soldiers toiling away!

Employing the strategy of using others to eliminate enemies was much more satisfying than getting his hands dirty.

With his prior Experience, the Endless Abyss’s secret incursion went unnoticed by anyone.

Since it was a brand-new system, as long as it could be promoted and flourish, there must be unique aspects to it. Qin Muye could adopt its strengths to make up for his own shortcomings, which was one of the main reasons for entering the instance, not merely for the sake of quest rewards.

This world was the Spirit Summoning World, resembling an ancient feudal society, where people could awaken Heroic Spirits from the ancient past through Spirit Summoning Ceremonies to fight on their behalf.

This was naturally the harvest that the Court expected from raising them.

Being engaged in constant battles with no prospects, maximization of interests wasn’t just about killing someone. For Qin Muye, killing was usually the last step, executed only after all other benefits had been exhausted.

Becoming a Spirit Summoner was one in a million. Fortunately, Qin Muye’s identity had the necessary qualifications for Spirit Summoning.

As for reaching Emperor, Emperor, or King, it was improbable; generally speaking, such ranks were reserved for protagonists or antagonistic supporting characters. A positive supporting character like his was more likely to be used to enhance the protagonist’s prestige and would unlikely start with a powerful Heroic Spirit.
