Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“Congratulations to Survivor Lin Ye. Zhang Chao has sacrificed his loyalty and has become your loyalist.”
“Congratulations to Survivor Lin Ye. You have obtained the Listening Ear Talent Crystal Fragment.”
“Destiny+1!”
100xReward.
1. 100 Listening Ear Talent Crystal Fragments
2. A complete Listening Ear Talent Crystal
3. Random Talent Crystal (Probability of Beginner Talent Crystals appearing is removed)
Destiny Points+100
Total Destiny Points: 5,800 [5,800 / 300,000]
“I choose option 2!”
Lin Ye made his choice.
Swish!
A moment later, a crystal ball that emitted a tri-colored glow appeared in his palm.
Then, under Zhang Chao’s shocked gaze, it turned into energy particles and was absorbed and refined by Lin Ye.
When his consciousness touched the new talent crystal ball, rows of information were displayed before him as follows:
Talent: Listening Ear
Innate Quality: Peak Top-Class
Class: Level 1
Ability: Listen to one’s thoughts (Note: One can listen to the other party’s thoughts as long as it’s information related to oneself)
Extreme long-distance hearing. (Even if the place exceeds the coverage of one’s territory, the ability can still be used normally)
“Impressive, as expected of a peak top-class talent. It looks trashy, but in terms of spying on information, this ability is against the heavens. It can actually ignore the limitations of my territory. Just this alone is enough to instantly kill most talents.”
Lin Ye nodded inwardly, but it was still a pity.
When this ability was evolved to its limit, it would probably be similar to a clairaudient ability among sages.
If he could have a Thousand Mile Sight Talent, that would be awesome.
In the past, he did not think much of it, but after obtaining the Snatching Fate ability, he believed that he could one day achieve it.
Fate and luck were amazing things.
When fate and luck were with you, even if you made a few mistakes, you would still be able to pick up a few hundred million from the ground.
And now, it was time for him to grow rapidly. The scales of the golden dragon above his head were almost half lit up.
In this state, it might really be possible soon.
“God Lin, are we on the same side now?” After signing the contract, Zhang Chao was still a little confused. He had never seen a contract scroll before. He only felt that his loyalty to Lin Ye had become more obvious. Other than that, he did not have any other special feelings.
Lin Ye smiled and glanced at him. He instantly heard the other party’s thoughts.
He used his Mind Possession skill.
Instantly, a thought appeared in Zhang Chao’s mind. “Little Zhang, we’re on the same side now. Do you feel the difference?”
“God Lin, you can speak in my head?!!”
Zhang Chao looked up excitedly at Lin Ye. That look in his eyes was as if he had seen his idol.
“This is basic.” Lin Ye smiled and waved his hand. “Go and challenge the tower to record your avatar. Also, tell me about your territory’s situation and location. I’ll see if I can pull you over.”
“Oh, okay.” Zhang Chao nodded repeatedly.
It was not far from the challenge tower, but there were many people lining up at this moment. Lin Ye walked and stopped, roughly understanding Zhang Chao’s situation.
The place Zhang Chao was in was not part of the Lonely Forest, but the Dark Crow Mine.
Through his Listening Ear talent, he learned about the ruin from a mysterious person known as ‘Ze’ who had secretly entered the ruin of The Legend of The Condor Heroes and took away a portion of the martial arts manual stored in it.
Then, he developed rapidly in the Dark Crow Mine and was considered one of the small bosses in that area.
“God Lin, do you want martial arts secret manuals? They’re very powerful.” Zhang Chao took out a few crumpled secret manuals from his space ring and asked.
“Let me see.” Lin Ye was curious, but after a few glances, he lost interest.
Too weak. To be honest, it was only useful for the first four classes.
After Class 4, one needed cultivation manuals. Martial arts were no longer suitable.
Unless one could obtain a high-level ruin, one would easily be beaten up.
“Too weak. Zhang Liang, give Zhang Chao the battle aura secret manual from your ring, the cultivation technique manuals, and the secret techniques of the Mechanical Beast Sect. When you get back, find Zhang Bao’er and make a new copy. I’ll pay for the contribution points,” Lin Ye said.
Then, while Zhang Liang was retrieving the secret manuals.
After some thought, Lin Ye took out a Level 5 golden space ring. Inside it was 10,000 strands of enlightenment energy.
Inside, there were also hundreds of Level 4 Silver-tier weapons and a Silver-tier shield.
There were also 1,000 peak Class 5 mechanical beasts and 100,000 low-grade spirit stones.
“God Lin?” Zhang Chao received the ring and was shocked.
A Level 5 space ring?!!
Heavens, his space ring was obtained from flipping through a token from the ruin of The Legend of The Condor Heroes.
It was only a Level 2 one.
But just this space ring alone was a godly item in the Dark Crow Mine map. The other small bosses were all envious of him.
All of them wanted to kill him and take it for themselves.
But he never expected that as soon as he joined his idol, God Lin, he would be given a Class 5 space ring that was three levels higher.
“It’s a meeting gift for you. Take a look. It’s good for you.” Lin Ye smiled.
Zhang Chao swallowed hard, his emotions indescribable. Since he was young, other than the late principal of the orphanage he was in, he had never felt any love or care. He had no relationship with Lin Ye, but the other party was willing to give him such precious treasures.
This feeling of being trusted instantly felt like a cool spring in summer, nourishing his entire mind.
He clenched his fist and smiled broadly. ‘This is what it feels like to be home, right? From now on, the Lin Clan will be my home. I will defend it with my life.’
Hearing this, Lin Ye looked back at him and smiled.
However, the short moment of calm was quickly interrupted by a loud “Holy sh*t!”.
Everyone turned to look at the person.
The person who spoke was Zhang Chao.
He pointed at the golden space ring and stuttered, “God Lin, this, this is too precious. I don’t… I don’t deserve it!”
This was the truth. He had originally thought that it was just some Level 4 Silver-tier equipment. After all, the human lords who had followed Lin Ye were basically all equipped with equipment of this level.
He thought that this was a standard for loyalists, but he did not expect the items in the ring to be so precious.
Enlightenment Energy was a product of the Reflection Hall.
Each strand could speed up his talent and repair it. They were worth a lot both in the outside world and the Underworld.
But God Lin had directly given him 10,000. This was too f*cking terrifying!
Other than that, the more terrifying part was the mechanical beasts.
There were a thousand of them, and all of them were top Class 5 mechanical beasts.
Oh my god, Class 5 and Class 6 had just been unlocked.
Yet, God Lin had already directly gifted him 1000 top Class 5 mechanical beasts. The scene was a little too beautiful, and he could not believe it.
“If I intend to give it to you, just take it. You’re no longer a free human lord now. Your bunker has been completely destroyed. Take this as compensation. Don’t be unwilling to consume the Enlightenment Energy. Eat a few hundred to a thousand of it and it should be enough to repair your talent. As for the Level 4 Silver-tier equipments and mechanical beasts, they are for your survival.”
“In two days, when I figure out the coordinates of the map, I’ll send someone to pick you up.”
“Can you really find me?” Zhang Chao was pleasantly surprised.
He had longed to be part of the Lin Clan for a long time.
“Probably.” Lin Ye nodded with a smile.
Since he had entered the Great Cities Era, his territory’s area had expanded to 150,000 square kilometers.
It had already enveloped three map areas.
One of them was the Lonely Forest where he was. The other two had yet to be figured out. He needed to send his cavalry to scout the way.
Only by completely tearing apart the dark fog, or beating the local zombie king, could he know the name of that map.
He never slackened when it came to finding people.
After all, his parents and sister were still wandering outside. No matter how safe they were, they were still in danger.
Suddenly, a commotion came from ahead.
Lin Ye’s thoughts returned and he looked forward.
His eyes flickered as he patted Zhang Chao’s shoulder.. “Let’s go and take a look.”
