Chapter 1096 Easy

The upgrade to the features was nice. It also indicated that as the system's functionality was being repaired, its performance was also increasing. EVen this was only at 40% functionality. Lex could not even imagine what would happen if the system reached 50%, or even 100%!

On top of everything, Lex's system authority had also increased to level 5!

That was incredibly useful, as he could now purchase even more things from the system directly! More powerful and diverse formations, get more detailed answers from Mary, as well as exercise his control over more aspects of the Inn.

Although the notification about his authority increase was the simplest, it was perhaps the most useful.

That only left behind the three quests he had been given altogether! But even if he had been given three quests at once, Lex did not feel pressured or alarmed by them. Instead, not only did they seem pretty easy to accomplish, they also seemed very interesting. They also seemed designed especially for the latest application of his tavern.

The first quest was to provide materials that could strengthen the laws within the Inns territory. Lex had a strong suspicion that the system could easily get them if it wished, but was delegating the task to Lex to make him suffer.

But the thing was, both Lightning tribulation shards and space crystals were things he could easily get! In fact, Vera had only recently reminded him that there were countless oracles still within the Inn who were requesting his service to remove lightning shards from their souls.

In fact, that was one of the first things he planned on doing. Now that a bunch of guests had been sent out of the Inn, the news that the Inn had an entirely new realm all to itself would spread.

That would, inevitably, attract some kind of trouble. That was one of the reasons why he wanted to close the Inn as quickly as possible. But having it open for a short time offered many advantages that he wanted to avail.

In short, the first quest was not nearly as difficult as it was made out to be. He even intended to complete it as quickly as possible to get the best possible reward.

Then came the second quest. It was hard to determine how easy or difficult this would be. Theoretically, it should be pretty easy. He just needed to find some guests on the verge of dying and save them, or maybe lend weak guests a cultivation technique or something along those lines. With the tavern traveling from place to place, within five years, it shouldn't be difficult to change the destiny of just a hundred people.

That finally left the third quest, which was to attend six events, each specifically focused on a different cultivation level. This again did not seem hard. With access to countless worlds, finding six measly events over the course of five years should not be hard at all.

The only thing that Lex was slightly curious about was whether those five years were in the Midnight realm, or outside? Since time flowed three times faster in the Midnight realm than in the Origin realm, if he only had five years here, then that would equate to a little more than a year in the Origin realm.

Whereas if it were five years in the Origin realm, it would be equal to fifteen years here. Considering he intended to use the tavern to complete the quests, he hoped it followed the timeline of the Origin realm, but he had a feeling that was too much to ask for.

Lastly, there was the restriction on the grade of systems he could absorb. It was a predictable issue, considering what happened with the resin. But it wasn't urgent, so he'd deal with it in the future.
