Woke Up to Find the Game I Made Came True-Chapter 87
"Uh, teacher, I'd like to improve my history level again," Ye Bai repeated.
Anita looked up, her green eyes widening in surprise. She then removed her glasses and scrutinized Ye Bai from head to toe.
The usually composed and enigmatic history mentor couldn’t help but show astonishment. After a moment, she finally confirmed that Ye Bai was indeed eligible for another level-up.
While combat class advancements required passing a mentor’s trial, secondary professions like 'history' relied on a system-determined proficiency. Once the required experience was met, the mentor could directly certify it—no room for deception.
"Impressive…" Anita slowly regained her composure, putting her glasses back on as she praised with lingering amazement, "It seems you’ve made quite a remarkable historical discovery."
Ye Bai’s lips twitched, and she nodded in agreement—that was certainly an understatement. Not only had she explored an entire dragon graveyard, but she’d also witnessed the final battle between an ancient dragon and the undead.
[You have completed the quest ‘Mentor’s Expectations.’]
A flash of light, visible only to her, signaled Ye Bai’s secondary profession leveling up once more.
[Your secondary profession ‘Historian II’ has advanced to ‘Historian III.’]
With each upgrade, the experience rewards from uncovering undiscovered history increased. However, the proficiency bar also lengthened, requiring more historical insights to reach the next level.
Moreover, upon leveling up, Ye Bai noticed additional changes when she checked her secondary profession details.
[Historian III]
Profession Description: You’ve built a solid foundation in history. Now, combine your knowledge and wisdom to uncover more truths buried in the past!
The most uptodate nove𝙡s are published on frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓.
Proficiency: 73/100
Skill - Archaeology: Gain experience by uncovering historical information; discover hidden quest clues from historical records.
Skill - Scholar’s Aura: Gain favor bonuses with factions/races based on your knowledge of their history. (Current Favor: Ancient Dragons +5, Undead +3)
Ye Bai’s current favor with ancient dragons and the undead was undoubtedly unmatched in the entire realm.
As her level increased, Mentor Anita instinctively retrieved another item from a spatial storage device. "This is—"
Mid-sentence, she paused and looked at Ye Bai uncertainly. "Wait… do you plan to level up again?"
"No," Ye Bai quickly replied, having already checked her proficiency bar—she was still a quarter away from reaching Historian IV.
Anita visibly relaxed and continued handing over the item, speaking earnestly:
"This is an artifact I stumbled upon during an archaeological expedition. It’s an antique with its own history. You’re progressing swiftly—perhaps you can uncover something from it. The study of history knows no bounds. May you reveal more stories buried by time."
"Thank you, teacher." Ye Bai accepted the item with gleaming eyes.
Historian II corresponded to first and second-tier combat classes, while Historian III aligned with second and third-tier combat classes. Previously, Ye Bai had received the ‘Archaeological Magnifying Glass’ as a fixed reward for Historian II. Now, as a Historian III, her reward was a random ‘antique’ related to her profession.
[Ancient Compass]
Rarity: Rare
Type: Archaeological Tool
Condition: Unrestored Antique
Effect: Provides directional guidance based on known ‘historical clues.’ Current accuracy: 60%.
Description: Most of the time, this mystical compass points true. Well… most of the time.
Seeing its attributes, Ye Bai smirked in satisfaction. As expected of a level-three profession reward—despite its accuracy limitations and somewhat unreliable description, it was undeniably a practical tool.
Moreover, as Anita had mentioned, this item was also an antique.
Antiques could be considered ‘semi-sealed’ items. Players who obtained them could pay historians to appraise them. Depending on the historian’s level, there was a chance to receive a ‘historical clue’ tied to the antique—essentially a unique quest for the item.
Completing this quest would reveal how to restore the antique, significantly enhancing its properties.
Truthfully, Ye Bai didn’t have much use for the compass in the realm—she already knew most of its history and key quests. With historical clues in hand, she could likely locate quest objectives without its guidance.
But when she ventured into the uncharted Divine Realm, this compass would become invaluable!
After a second restoration, it might even evolve into a legendary artifact with pinpoint accuracy.
Without delay, Ye Bai pulled out her Archaeological Magnifying Glass and used it on the compass, activating her Archaeology skill.
After five consecutive uses, she not only obtained a basic historical clue but also triggered the magnifying glass’s bonus effect, granting an additional lead.
[You have obtained the historical clue ‘City of Golden Sands’ from the ‘Ancient Compass.’ +5 History EXP; +1000 EXP.]
[You have obtained the additional historical clue ‘Golden Clan’ from the ‘Ancient Compass.’ +8 History EXP; +3000 EXP.]
[You have triggered the quest ‘Legacy of the Golden Clan.’]
Quest Description: From historical clues, you’ve learned that the compass originates from the lost City of Golden Sands. Locate the remnants of the Golden Clan who once dwelled there to restore the compass.
Reward: Restore the ‘Ancient Compass.’
Secondary profession tools were essentially ‘equipment’ for the profession—always highly practical. Without the magnifying glass’s effect, Ye Bai would’ve needed to research the City of Golden Sands’ history separately to trigger the quest. This shortcut saved her considerable time.
Noticing her progress, Anita nodded approvingly. "It seems you’ve already found a lead. I hope you can uncover its secrets."
After bidding farewell to Anita, Ye Bai left the library and headed for the teleportation array in Laen City.
After spending 50 silver coins, Ye Bai's vision blurred for a moment. When everything returned to normal, he had already arrived at the alchemy school's main city in the Blue Star server—Laen City.
