Chapter 123: Useless Talent
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
When Feng Qi retracted his hand from Mu Yao’s statue, the fragmented images in his mind immediately receded like a tide.
...The information in her memories were too much for him to completely read.
He had only read a portion of the content.
Looking at Mu Qing with her spear pointed at the void, he felt deep veneration in his heart.
He suddenly understood why Lu Yue called Mu Yao a “miracle”.
This was a warrior worthy of respect. Even until death, she had fought for the future of mankind and had never given in.
He looked at Mu Yao again, and many doubts surfaced in his heart.
Based on the information in his memory, he could not determine what relationship Mu Yao had with the Path to Heaven.
However, he guessed that perhaps the Path to Heaven was also a faction established by Mu Yao. It was similar to the Scarlet Research Institute and the Dawn army.
At this moment, the narrator’s voice sounded in his mind:
[If you want to obtain more memory information, increase your bloodline evolution points as soon as possible. Only when your bloodline level increases will your sea of consciousness be able to contain more information.]
Upon hearing the narrator’s notification, Feng Qi couldn’t help but ask curiously,
“I can’t completely read the memory information. Is it because my sea of consciousness doesn’t have enough storage?”
[You can’t say that. The storage space is one thing, but more importantly, the speed of processing information is too slow. Before your sea of consciousness can finish processing the previous information, the subsequent memory fragments will pour into your sea of consciousness. You will naturally feel pain and can’t continue to look through Mu Yao’s memories.]
“Understood. As long as the strength of my sea of consciousness increases, my ability to process information will also increase. It will be easier to read her memories.”
[You’re a promising child.]
While Feng Qi couldn’t help but roll his eyes, he began to think about another questions.
What were the trigger conditions for the Nightmare ability?
Up until now, Nightmare had been triggered a total of two times.
The first time was when Mu Qing was about to lose control. He unintentionally came into contact with her body and instantly invaded her sea of consciousness, reading part of her memories.
The second time was now, when he came into contact with the statue of Mu Yao.
“Narrator, do you think the trigger condition of the Nightmare is related to the target’s unstable mental state?”
[How would I know? Don’t look for the narrator for no reason. The narrator isn’t like an encyclopedia that knows everything. It’s just a heartless reminder robot… But perhaps your guess is right.]
He was not completely sure about his guess.
It did not seem right to say unstable mental state too. Mu Yao seemed to have died, but he could still read her memory information?
At this thought, Feng Qi immediately asked,
“Narrator, is Mu Yao dead now?”
[I’m not sure. I can sense a weak life fluctuation in the statue, but this fluctuation doesn’t seem to be the characteristics of a living being.]
“Could it be something like hibernation?”
[Hibernation your a*s. How can 1 not tell if she’s in a deep sleep? You’re showing mistrust towards my judgment.]
“So is she dead or alive?”
[I’m not sure. There’s a high chance that she’s dead. Perhaps it’s some indelible will that left a trace of her life mark.]
Hearing this, Feng Qi could not help but be dumbfounded.
“What do you mean?”
[To describe it in a simple way, it’s like a relic after death. Perhaps it’s her strong thought before she died that cause a certain will of hers to not disappear with the dissipation of life, and instead, survive.]
After listening to the narrator’s explanation, Feng Qi fell silent for a few seconds before nodding.
Looking at the statue again, he felt that he might be able to learn a lot of useful information from Mu Yao.
She might even know which of the dark forces was lurking in human civilization.
At this moment, he had a desire to increase his strength.
He also began to consider about his future dream choices and whether he should prioritize increasing his strength.
However, he was still a little worried. He felt that purely increasing his strength might not change anything.
Firstly, it was Blackie’s restriction. Secondly, it was the restriction of money.
Perhaps even if he entered the future dream dozens of times, he would not be able to increase his strength to the point where he could resist the dark forces.
The most important thing was to rely on the power of all mankind to resist the domain invasion.
Therefore, he was more inclined to figure out the true colors of the hidden forces first and use his advantage to eliminate them.
Without the lurking cancers, human civilization could truly welcome great development.
At the same time, he was very curious about something.
Why was Mu Yao alone in the final battle in her memories?
What about the rest of mankind?
Could it be that they had already perished before this battle?
He had no way of knowing the answer to this question for the time being. He could only wait until his bloodline evolved and his sea of consciousness improved before coming to the statue to get useful information.
However, increasing bloodline evolution points was even more difficult than directly increasing one’s strength.
He had entered the future dream so many times, but his bloodline evolution points were still 400 points away from 1,000 points. He was still in the elementary state and could not replenish it in a short period of time.
He decided that the next time he returned to reality, he would plan his subsequent plans carefully before making a choice.
However, the most important thing was to maximize efficiency.
He did not want to waste the precious number of times he had to enter the future dream on meaningless things.
He already knew the truth about the Scarlet Research Institute, but there were still many doubts in his heart that had not been answered.
Other than the dark forces and the Path to Heaven,
What puzzled him was that since the dark forces had been obstructing the development of human civilization, why had his teacher, Wang Jinsheng, always been fine? He hadn’t been persecuted by the dark forces and had even been evaluated as a Historic Great
He would never believe that there was something wrong with Wang Jinsheng.
After six years of interaction, he knew very well what kind of person Old Wang was. No matter what, he would not betray humanity.
Therefore, there must be some secret he did not know about.
On Lin Ran’s side, a problem arose with the cultivation technique he created.
Was this related to the dark forces or was it Lin Ran’s own problem?
As well as Blackie’s background, how could it accurately locate him and start hunting him down?
There were actually many other questions that Feng Qi could not understand.
Unable to figure out the reason, he planned to take it one step at a time and slowly uncover the truth hidden in history. After all, it was clearly not easy to find answers to these questions.
Just as Feng Qi was deep in thought, the narrator’s voice sounded in his mind.
[We’ll consider these questions when we return to reality. Before Blackie arrives, won’t you do something that won’t let down Suction Cup who’s fighting for you?]
Hearing the narrator’s hint, Feng Qi immediately nodded.
“Help me search for any domain creatures nearby that are easy to bully.”
[3 o’clock direction, after climbing out of the sinkhole, there’s a domain creature that you seem to be able to defeat. Beat it up!]
“Alright!”
After reading Mu Yao’s memories, Feng Qi deeply felt the loneliness and sorrow in her heart.
At the same time, he felt a little depressed and needed to vent.
[Muscular man, roll out!]
Accompanied by the narrator’s shout, he released his psyche power and lifted his body into the air.
It was very difficult to fly with psychokinesis, but floating a hundred meters in the air was not a problem.
In an instant, his figure appeared outside the sinkhole.
After his feet landed, he glanced ahead and locked his gaze on a strange-looking domain creature.
It looked like an elk with a pale yellow rune crystal embedded in its forehead. There was a pair of huge antlers on its head and grayish-white fur on its body. At this moment, it was lowering its head and eating the white flowers on the plain.
After sizing it up a few times, Feng Qi could roughly confirm that the innate ability this domain creature could give him was definitely biased towards the growth of body cultivation.
Without hesitation, he immediately activated his Blood Source ability.
The frequency of his heartbeat began to rapidly increase. The blood and Qi in his body was sucked dry and turned into a blood mist that enveloped his body.
In an instant, he grew to more than two meters tall. The muscles on his body condensed into blocks, and his two arms were comparable to battle axes. Thick veins could be clearly seen, and his entire body emitted a wild and valiant aura.
Blood Source’s duration was limited. He immediately pounced at the domain creature that was eating.
This domain creature was also frightened by Feng Qi. Its body suddenly trembled, but it did not choose to escape. Instead, it lowered its head and charged up before jumping towards Feng Qi.
Feng Qi’s right arm suddenly smashed down, knocking it to the ground.
Then, psyche power seeped out of his body and suppressed the domain creature for about a second. At this moment, he also moved close, grabbed one of the domain creature’s legs, and began to hit it violently.
As long as the domain creature showed signs of breaking free, he would use his psyche power to suppress it and seize the opportunity to continue smashing.
Facing Feng Qi, who was crushing him with strength, the domain creature let out a sad cry, as if it had realized its ending.
He had no pity for this at all.
Only after smashing the domain creature to death did he stop while panting.
A wisp of blood mist appeared from the domain creature’s body and floated in front of him before being absorbed by his body.
At this moment, the narrator’s voice sounded in his mind:
[1’11 replay the mental journey of the domain creature just now. This is probably the situation.]
[1 was eating grass when a monster with muscles all over its body suddenly jumped out. It launched a sneak attack out of the blue. It hit me hard in the head. I was indignant and wanted to retort, but 1 was suppressed by a mysterious force. Then, the muscle monster grabbed my right hind leg and smashed me left and right. It threw me until I was dizzy and almost vomited. F*ck.]
Ignoring the dramatic narrator, he summoned the attributes panel.
After killing the domain creature in front of him, he indeed obtained a brand new innate ability and prefix title.
[Tough Teeth (Evolvable Prefix Title)]: Strength of the teeth will increase greatly. When biting the target, it will carry a portion of blood and Qi damage (Collateral damage is affected by the strength of one’s own blood and Qi. The stronger they are, the higher the damage.)
After reading the attribute introduction, Feng Qi’s face was filled with question marks.
“What kind of lousy title is this?”
[The growth path of muscular men. All parts of the body can become fatal weapons, including the teeth. When necessary, you can deal damage with their mouths and have unexpected effects. Roar!]
“Roar, my ass. Other than obtaining more than 30 bloodline evolution points, this talent skill is completely useless.”
[Superficial.]
“Then tell me something practical.”
[1 haven’t thought of anything else for the time being, but when you return to reality, you will realize that… you won’t need a bottle opener to open the bottle cap.]
“Pui!”
[The living dead spits. How disgusting. Rebound!]
“Super rebound and your next skill is made ineffective.”
[Foolish living dead!]
