Chapter 220 Lilim’s Announcemen (2/2)
[Second change, I will randomly give you a mission if by chance you got your one or more of your skills back. However, I will not provide any quest or a task to anyone who doesn't have a system skill so he or she could live in this world in peace.]
[This will be your choice. You can choose to abandon all of your previous skills and live like ordinary natives in this world with your increased lifespans, or you can still get your cheats back. If you choose the latter, there will be a bit of risk because I will continuously give you tasks to perform.]
[The third change will happen in the next ten to twenty years. It's regarding the wings I mentioned earlier, but I'll tell you if you survive until then.]
[The last one, I've adjusted a bit of your clan donation taxes. I think the rate of ”Ten years donation to get one year in the allocation pool” is a bit unfair and nobody has used it so far. I've reduced it from 10-1 to two to one. For every two lifespans you donate, you get one lifespan in the clan pool. Well, I need those lifespan taxes to reinforce this dimension, so you'd better not complain.]
[That's all the announcement for now. GLHF!]
…
Friday, Hua Shi, and Tong read the announcement messages with an astonished look on their faces. The change in the system also changed the rules and their lifestyle.
”System! This is bullshit! This is a ransom! Give us back our skills!” Hua Shi protested.
[To begin with, the skills aren't even yours. You have no right to complain.]
The reply from Lilim hit them at the sore spot. They were all system's skills which were bestowed on them when they reincarnated here. It had been so long to the point that they took it for granted that the skills were parts of their properties.
Tong looked at the system menu while he was gritting his teeth. These system administrators kept changing their rules every year as they nerfed or buffed without caring about their opinion.
Losing all his skills was a serious issue to Tong since he still relied on his [Create Food] to maintain Julu's economy. He had to regain it back.
Without hesitation, Tong pushed the donate button in his menu and added 100,000 lifespans into the [Central Pool].

<you have=”” obtained=”” [time=”” stop]=”” lv.2=””>>
”I can't choose my skill?” Tong was shocked.
”What? Did you just try to get your skill back?” Hua Shi asked.
”Yes. But it seems the system will give us back our skill randomly. I wanted my [Create Food] back, but I just get [Time Stop] instead.”
”You have another try. You can try it again.”
”Yeah.”
Tong tried to insert another 100,000 lifespans into the [Donate] menu.
<ding>>
<you have=”” obtained=”” [firearm=”” creation]=”” lv.1=””>>
Tong scratched his head. A wry smile appeared on his face as he reported his gain.
”It's not [Create Food] again. It's my [Firearm Creation].”
Friday rubbed her chin. He opened her clan menu and donated 200,000 of her lifespans into the pool, and the clan lifespan asset increased by 100,000.
”Allocate the clan lifespan to yourself and try again. I still have another 1,300,000 lifespans unused, so you should random it until you get it back.” Friday spoke.
”Oh, you should get that [Immortal Yang Vein] skill back, too! We need to duel-cultivate again!” Hua Shi supported.
A smile appeared on Tong's face as he appreciated what the girls did for him. He allocated his lifespans from the clan pool to himself and donated them to the system again.
<bzz>>
<we're sorry.=”” you=”” can=”” only=”” regain=”” two=”” skills=”” a=”” year=””>>
Tong almost shouted in frustration. He groaned as his face reddened from anger.
It took Tong another minute to settle his emotion, taking deep breaths.
The five skills that Tong had yet to obtain back were [Create Food], [Radar Map], [Inventory], [Immortal Yang Vein], and [Sword Mastery].
His [Demonic Curse], [Demonic Seal], and [Weak Demonic Body] were not deleted by Lilim as they were skills which merged with Tong's soul.
In the worst case scenario, if Tong were unlucky, he could be able to obtain his [Create Food] back within three years as Tong only had five system skills to get back.
”What's wrong?”
”We can only get back two skills a year, I can't get another skill,” Tong paused, ”It seems we might have to rely on Feihong's farm if I don't get my [Create Food] next year.”
The face of everyone grimed. Without the [Create Food], they would also lose their favorite meals that Tong used to create for them.
The city food and spice supplies also relied heavily on Tong's skill. If Tong could not get [Create Food] back, the economic power of Julu would face a crisis.
”Sunday, try to get your [Inventory] back.”
Hearing Tong's suggestion, Hua Shi's face turned pale. She had stored 2.5 million gold and back up supplies in her [Inventory], and she was not confident that everything would remain in there even if she could get the skill back.
...
At the end of the day, Hua Shi got lucky and got her [Inventory] back with one try. To their delight, all gold and other supplies, such as back up food and spice, were still there.
In her storage, they still had enough food and gold for a year and a half, which should be enough.
Hua Shi also borrowed Friday's lifespans and regained her [Homing Arrow] back.
The three contacted Li Feihong about the issue, but they worried about him for nothing.
Li Feihong only had two skills, so Friday spent another 400,000 years to get his [Private Farm World] and [Self-Resurrection] back.
Friday also gifted Feihong 100,000 lifespans to extend his life and for the payment of his service. Ding Yuan, Zhang Jiao, and his two brothers also got 1,000 years each so they could stay around for a few centuries.
With all of the allocation, Friday alone spent 900,000 lifespans either by giving it to the clan asset or her comrades. There was still 42,000 lifespans in the clan bank to spare.
”Friday, you don't feel pity for your lifespans at all?” Hua Shi asked. She knew that Friday spent half of her lifespans for the clan, but the girl herself did not show any sign of worry at all.
”Why? I can get them back any time I want to. I'm sure Liu Yan and Yuan Shao will try to invade us in spring next year. I can drain their men's life essence, and I'll be above a million again. Also, it's about time I teach all of you about devils and our wing power.”</we're></bzz></you></ding></you></ding>
