67 The Advantages of Each of the Five Races
Chu Bai left the courtyard first and went to buy a few buns. He and Lil Xue’er quickly ate them.
One could starve to death in this game.
It was extreme!
Then, he hurried back to the village chief’s courtyard.
“Brother Bai Ye!”
When the village chief saw Chu Bai, he quickly ran over with a shocked expression.
“You’ve become stronger! Don’t tell me you…”
He stared at Chu Bai.
Chu Bai nodded. “Yes, I passed!”
“What?!”
The village chief was completely stunned on the spot.
He looked at Chu Bai in a daze.
His face was full of disbelief!
“This is… A destiny epaulet?” He stared at the epaulet on Chu Bai’s chest.
Although he did not recognize it, he knew that after passing, he would receive an epaulet. This must be the destiny epaulet.
“The village chief took a deep breath, then patted Chu Bai’s shoulder heavily.”
“Good job! Good job! You’re stronger than I thought! In the past 10,000 years, you’re the only one to clear the abyss-level Tower of Trials! You’re very likely one of the five sons of destiny! I didn’t expect to see the birth of the heavens’ chosen one in my lifetime. I can die without regrets now!” the village chief said excitedly.
“Village chief, you’re too kind,” Chu Bai said.
“No! No! Absolutely not! The three goddesses created these villages in order to find someone who can pass the abyss-level Tower of Trials, and you are that person! You’re the chosen one, or even the son of destiny. Brother Bai Ye, I have a request.”
Chu Bai looked at the village chief.
A request? The village chief was the sword god.
“Please speak, Village Chief.”
“If it’s possible, I really hope that you can join the human race.”
Chu Bai was never considering the other four races to begin with.
“Village Chief, is there anything special about this?”
The village chief nodded. “Yes. Every adventurer who leaves the village can choose to go to the human race’s Fate Continent, the demon race’s Demon God Continent, the monster race’s Monster God Continent, the beast race’s Beast God Continent, and the God race’s Myriad Gods Continent. Once they’ve made their choice, it means that they’ve joined the corresponding race!”
“What else?”
The village chief said, “Each of the five races has its own advantages. If you join the demon, monster, beast, and god race, all your attributes will increase. If you join the demon race, your health points will increase greatly.
“If you join the beast race, your attack power will be greatly improved. If you join the monster race, your speed will be greatly improved. If you join the god race, the degree of increase in all attributes will be even higher. Of course, your health will definitely not increase as much as if you join the demon race, but it wins in balance.
“What about the humans?” Chu Bai asked.
“The human race… You won’t see an improvement.”
Chu Bai frowned.
“No improvement? What’s the advantage of the human race, then?”
“Higher potential.”
Chu Bai frowned.
The village chief said, “No matter if it’s the demon race, monster race, beast race, or god race, there’s an 80% chance that they’ll transform into a human form for their entire lives. This is because a human form is the most perfect body. But even if they take on human form, the thing about joining the human race is that you’ll have no upper limit. If you join the human race, your level can reach level 101. However, I don’t know what other specific aspects there are.
Level 101?
Chu Bai pondered for a while.
If it was just an increase of one level, it would definitely be a great loss considering the attribute bonuses of other races.
Therefore, it must be more than that.
He still preferred the human race.
“Yes, I’ll join the human race.”
Chu Bai said.
“That’s good! That’s good to hear.”
The village chief nodded his head vigorously, then patted Chu Bai’s shoulder.
“Brother Bai Ye, prepare to leave the village.”
“Alright,” he said.
Chu Bai followed the village chief to the backyard, and the village chief released a teleportation formation.
“This is the teleportation array that leads to the human race’s Land of Fate. There are a total of eight empires on the Land of Fate.”
“Isn’t it the five great empires?” Chu Bai asked in confusion.
“The Land of Fate is surrounded by the other four races. The beast race is in the north, the monster race is in the south, the god race is in the east, and the demon race is in the west. The human race’s Land of Fate is divided into two from the north to the south. The human race’s Land of Fate that you’re going to is the western region, which is where the five great empires are. You can come into contact with the demon race, the monster race, and the beast race there. The eastern region is where you can come into contact with the god race, the beast race, and the monster race. That’s also where the three great empires are!
“The region where the three great empires are located is more powerful and prosperous. It’s also a place you’ll definitely set foot in in the future.”
Chu Bai asked, “The Divine Phoenix Empire is…”
That was the empire Huang Xin was from.
“One of the three great empires in the east.”
Chu Bai nodded.
“The five great empires in the western region of the human continent are the Kamikaze Empire, the White Tiger Empire, the Azure Dragon Empire, the Black Tortoise Empire, and the Vermillion Bird Empire. Where do you want to go?”
“Kamikaze Empire, I guess.” Chu Bai said.
“The Kamikaze Empire is in the northernmost part of the country, bordering the beast race and the demon race. Are you sure?”
Chu Bai nodded.
“Good! The landing point will be any random city other than the main city of the Kamikaze Empire.”
As the village chief spoke, he released a wave of energy, and the teleportation formation’s light turned blue.
“Brother Bai Ye, are you willing to inherit my power?” the village chief asked.
Chu Bai was stunned.
What did that mean?
Sword God? The hidden class that was Sword God?
The three goddesses’ guardian profession, and the hidden class that was the ceiling of a swordsman?
He had to!
“Of course, I’m willing!”
“Alright!”
The village chief nodded, then released a wave of energy toward Chu Bai!
However…
[Ding. Class change failed.]
“How did this happen?” The village chief frowned.
Then, he looked at Chu Bai. “Perhaps we’re not fated. Forget it. Take this instead.”
Chu Bai was speechless.
F*ck!
Why did it turn out like this?
What a pity.
He then took the scroll.
[Hidden Class Sword God Class Change Scroll: upon use, one can obtain the hidden class-Sword God.]
He would definitely try it when the time came!
This was a top-tier hidden class.
Moreover, he was a swordsman.
“Let’s go in.”
Chu Bai nodded and stepped into the teleportation formation.
“Brother Bai Ye, I’m afraid we won’t be able to see each other again after this. I have one more request.”
“Please speak, Village Chief.”
The village chief said, “I still have descendants outside. It’s been 10,000 years. I wonder how they are now. They happen to be in North Wind Town of the Kamikaze Empire. Their surname is Ren. If you meet my descendants, please take care of them.”
After he finished speaking, he handed Chu Bai a jade pendant and a letter.
“This jade pendant can be recognized by my descendants. The letter says that when the two jade pendants are combined, it becomes a treasure. You can keep it when the time comes.”
[Ding. You’ve triggered the mission ‘Take care of the village chief’s descendants’. Mission reward: mysterious jade pendant. Mission time limit: none. Do you accept?]
Chu Bai nodded and took it.
“I will!”
“Thank you very much. It’s getting late. Brother Bai Ye, I’ll see you again!”
“We’ll meet again!”
Whoosh!
With a flash of light, Chu Bai disappeared.
