Chapter 167: Spoils of War, Perfect Talent Skill!

“Victory!”

“We won! We won!”

“We’re probably the first settlement that has won the Ten-Species Competition in the entire Yang City, or even the entire Southwest Province.”

After Li Qing took out the last Eagle Man with his long-range sniper rifle, the humans started celebrating their victory.

After killing all the Eagle Men, the next step would be to make an inventory of the rewards.

“I gained 20 Honor points and 2 Rare Honor points!”

“I have an Extraordinary Rank-1 Stone of Civilization, which can transform into a Refined object.”

“Haha, I killed an Extraordinary Eagle Man and got an Extraordinary Rank-3 blue light armor!”

Many players from Earth who had participated in the battle were pleasantly surprised.

The Eagle Men were indeed very powerful, so the reward after defeating them was equally generous.

The one who had won the top prize was obviously Ji Ye.

Because the Void Ring he obtained after killing the head of the Eagle Men contained almost all the important objects of the Eagle Men.

However, the most unexpected reward didn’t come from the head of the Eagle Men. Rather, it was from the condor-rider, who seemed to be a beta tester and the seed of providence of the Eagle Men.

First of all, that Eagle Men’s beta tester dropped a talent skill!

Contract (talent skill)

Level: Extraordinary

Rarity: Perfect

Description: With the consent of the target, one could sign a “contract” with any creatures of Extraordinary level and below. All contracted creatures would be considered a part of the settlement (maximum usage time: 5).

After seeing this, Ji Ye realized how the Eagle Men had been able to control the Golden Condor.

Apparently, it wasn’t achieved by using objects with transcendent power. Rather, it was this Eagle Man player’s talent skill.

Needless to say, that was a very powerful skill.

The “Contract” skill alone wasn’t all that impressive. Theoretically, a lot of similar skills could be found in the Land of Inheritance. But what was special about this beta tester’s talent was that it could make the contracted creature be seen as a member of their own settlement!

That was to say, he would be able to continuously enhance the power of providence of the settlement through making contracts.

That was why the Eagle Men’s settlement level had been able to follow the humans closely even when the humans quickly annihilated the Soul race and had a great victory in the Battlefield of Providence.

That was also why this beta tester had become Eagle Men’s seed of providence, because this talent skill was as good as Ji Ye’s Healing talent!

“So, when a seed of providence is killed, they’ll drop their talent.

“That’s a very important piece of information, too bad that I can only use it five times.”

Ji Ye said regretfully.

Of course, even with the limitation, it was still a valuable reward.

Apart from the talent skill that would only work 5 times, the bow dropped by the beta tester was also an exceptional piece!

Radiant Gold Bow

Level: Extraordinary Rank-5

Rarity: Superior (Rare)

Description: A Superior weapon made of the radiant gold from the Eagle Men’s settlement. It could transform into different shapes.

Strictly speaking, the weapon wasn’t just a bow.

Because when controlled with mental power, it could quickly change its shape and transform into other forms such as a saber, sword, shield, armor, etc.

Only when he joined Gongsun Sheng and the others at the settlement core did Ji Ye learn that the Eagle Men’s seed of providence was the commander of the Eagle Men in the battlefield.

With this Superior Extraordinary Rank-5 weapon, he had killed a lot of elite human soldiers in the battlefield.

Moreover, he had blocked the sniper rifle attack several times!

He had also hit Ling Zhen’s helmet with a Radiant Gold Arrow. However, the Soft Golden Armor Ling Zhen wore was also Extraordinary Rank-5, and it was able to block the arrow.

When the seed of providence went back to the Eagle Men’s nest with the Golden Condor to fight Ji Ye, he didn’t perform as well as before.

It was largely due to the fact that he had used up most of his Extraordinary items in the combat earlier.

His Battle Aura and the energy of the Radiant Gold Bow were also running low.

Of course, even with his full strength, he was unlikely to defeat Ji Ye.

After all, as powerful as a Perfect talent, it wouldn’t be able to withstand the power of the inheritance.

The third prize the beta tester dropped was a translucent “heart” that was blue and glass-like.

Pure Blue Glass Heart

Level: Extraordinary Rank-5

Rarity: Perfect (offering)

Description: Only a handful of extremely talented Eagle Men could have a pure blue heart, and only the smartest hero could fuse with this heart!

It was an offering, and a Perfect one, which was also probably because this Eagle Man was the seed of providence.

“However, do the Eagle Men really have something to do with the Garuda…”

Ji Ye pondered over the possibility.

In Sandia legend, there was a creature known as Garuda, which was a humanoid with an eagle’s beak and claws as well as three eyes. It was one of the Eight Legions in Buddhism.

The Garuda ate a “dragon king” and 500 “small dragons” every day. Of course, in the Sandian mythology, “dragons” were actually snakes. Legend had it that when the Garuda was dying because it could no longer suppress the accumulated poison from all the venomous snakes it had eaten, it would be burned to ash by poisonous flames.

All that was left was a Pure Blue Glass Heart, which the heavenly gods were fond of.

There were the Mirage Monsters before, and now, there was the Garuda.

Ji Ye was now convinced that the Land of Inheritance had existed on Earth before, and they probably would run into more legendary races of other countries.

“However, a Pure Blue Glass Heart… From the description of it, it doesn’t seem to fit the heroes of Liang Shan.

“Moreover, it’s Perfect. Which of the Heavenly Spirits will be good enough for it?

“Well, maybe there is…”

A name came to Ji Ye’s mind.

But it could wait.

All three items were doubtlessly exceptional rewards.

Many of the contracted Golden Condors dropped the Golden Condor’s Boon Cell Enhancement Potion after they were killed, and the Golden Condor King he killed even dropped some Extraordinary Gene Enhancement Fluid!

It would be very useful for the Twin Dragon Mount.

After all, to the newly-found sniper battalion, the Golden Condor’s Boon would give them a great advantage in their sight.

Of course, they wouldn’t use it directly like they did before.

Ji Ye planned to leave two Golden Condor’s Boon Potions behind to fuse them when they entered the Battlefield of Providence. That way, he could learn the composition and principle of this “Technological Medicine”.

After that, he could trade resources with the other forces in the City of Humans and try to replicate it himself!

Yes, the City of Humans and the Battlefield of Providence.

The Ten-Species Competition was completed.

But the Twin Dragon Mount had finished it in advance. There were still over 20 days before the task period was over.

Based on the information in his head, before the task ended, the foggy area in the surrounding maps wouldn’t be opened, nor would any creatures of Extraordinary Rank-5 and above enter this area.

As a reward for finishing the task in advance, the Twin Dragon Mount could open the passageway to the City of Humans during this period. There, they could trade with other human settlements that had also finished the task, so as to make further development and improvement.

However, to Ji Ye, the Battlefield of Providence rather than the City of Humans was the most useful place.

Because the time flow was faster in the Battlefield of Providence, he could use the Void Ring to bring a lot of items into it to fuse them all.

He could also use the chance to fuse his somewhat messy power once more!
