Bizarre Survival: I Can Devour Thousands of Talents

Chapter 60: Unyielding Will, Fierce Wind and Fire

Ye Zhanqing took Su Jinxi and Lin Lu to coordinate resource allocation.

Qi Heng, as the president, clearly didn't want to manage anything except take on responsibilities. Ling Xiao, the vice president, took on the heavy responsibility of leading the hunt, so the remaining miscellaneous tasks fell to her.

Fortunately, she had two best friends to help her, and Ye Zhanqing even intentionally assigned these trivial matters to them to free up her own fighting power as the third-ranked person.

Under an extremely flat management structure, the makeshift team began to figure out how to get on the right track!

The benefits of the forging furnace were also agreed upon by both parties, resulting in a mutually agreeable outcome.

Lingxiao and the guild split the profits equally.

The guild is responsible for purchasing materials and blueprints, and specialized craftsmen manufacture the products; Lingxiao only needs to leave the furnace there and wait for the dividends, and can take it back unconditionally if needed.

It can be considered a highly profitable venture.

After a long period of busy work, Ling Xiao finally had some free time to review his recent achievements.

The monsters in those ordinary dungeons didn't drop the talents he needed, so they all fed him the few derivative talents he already had equipped.

With ample supply and plenty of food, they've all been upgraded to the "Normal" level.

This also foreshadows the arrival of a bottleneck, because their quality ceiling is generally low, and the vast majority are just average.

Only the fused [Shadow of the Night] can ultimately reach the [Excellent] quality, directly skipping the intermediate [Fine] quality, making it a successful example of compatibility enhancement.

This also provided Ling Xiao with ideas for building his talent tree in the future.

Not only should there be a lot, but there should also be quality.

Besides directly plundering talents with higher potential, you can also fuse them by selectively collecting talents with similar attributes.

Ling Xiao benefited greatly from the two BOSS battles.

The spoils of war are secondary.

Even though the level 9 leader mutant only contributed a small portion of the experience, the experience he received allowed him to break through to level 7 in one fell swoop, and his experience bar directly rose to 48%!

It's clear that if you want to advance quickly, you have to take on challenges that are above your level!

Normally, level 9 monsters would run away at the mere sight of Ling Xiao, and his Eye of Appraisal wouldn't even need to detect any other information about them.

Now, with Qi Heng playing a supporting role, there's also a group of teammates, each with their own unique characteristics, working together.

He dares to challenge even a level 10 boss!

Of course, if you can't beat them, you'll run away!

My life is more important than anything else; there's nothing shameful about it.

In short, the team's actions have begun to bring tangible benefits to Ling Xiao.

Previously, to reach level 7, you would probably have to kill three more Shadow Tigers!

This worm is full of talents, but Ling Xiao doesn't want any of them.

It's full of strange things that burrow, digest, and reproduce.

Fortunately, the derivative talent randomly plundered by the Gluttonous Heart is the most normal one.

[Vibration Sensor (Normal): Detects the location and approximate size of a target by sensing subtle vibrations in the surrounding environment.]

It's nothing special, but it's still somewhat useful; having an additional detection method can improve Lingxiao's survivability.

What he looks forward to most is the freedom!

Although it's still just a little bit, the sweetness of the "quirky balance" is simply addictive!

Isn't that a coincidence?

The spirit is just a little lacking!

There's not much to say, just add it.

[Since your [Spirit] stat has reached ten points, one [Spirit]-related status will be randomly selected!]

【Extracting...】

The status "Unwavering Will" has been added!

[Unwavering Will: Before the ultimate threshold is broken, any negative influences or adverse effects on the mental level will be significantly weakened. (When this state is activated, the personality is prone to extremism, and obsessions intensify.)]

This is hard to evaluate...

The benefits are obvious. With it, Ling Xiao will no longer have to flee in a sorry state when he encounters that manipulative and strange creature again.

The downsides also need to be taken seriously, because human nature is the most difficult indicator to assess.

He himself was unsure about the ambiguous changes in his personality.

Overall, however, the "Unwavering Will" skill essentially provides a safety net for Ling Xiao's mental fortitude.

As long as you don't let your defenses crumble at the first glance, you can always seize the opportunity to break through the impasse with clarity!

His panel now has some more content:

[Level 7 (48%): ​​Monster Hunter [Owl]]

【Talent: Gluttony [Main Instinct] (Ember of Glory, Shadow of the Night, Soul Resistance, Mental Disorder, Rapid Regeneration, Vibration Sensing), Bloodstained Battle】

[Class: Monster Hunter (Hidden)]

Title: None

[Status: Duchess Emilia's Dream Curse, Strange Balance, Unyielding Will]

【Attribute: Free attribute points (0)】

【肉体[力量6/敏捷6/体质10]——体力值[220/220]】

【魂灵[灵性6/感知6/精神10]——灵力值[210/220]】

[Skill: Rapid Evasion...]

The latest novel is first published here!

……

If there is an empty talent slot and there is no suitable one, it is better to let other talents "eat" it rather than occupy the slot.

After several intense battles, Ling Xiao also discovered his shortcomings.

His skill set is quite impressive compared to others.

However, compared to explorers like Qi Heng who have awakened powerful combat talents, the emergency skills he cobbled together were somewhat unable to keep up with the output.

A single [Thunderous Ground] is comparable to a combination of countless skills!?

Logically speaking, with so many monsters dying at his hands, the Gluttonous Heart should have devoured several combat-related talents.

But the truth is just that absurd.

These monsters have many combat skills, but their talents are all diverse and ultimately all aimed at improving their survivability.

He's more afraid of death than any human being!

Perhaps only by encountering a truly formidable opponent can one find a monster whose racial talents have the potential to be channeled into combat...

Heaven never closes all doors.

How could Ling Xiao, who has a huge sum of money at his disposal, possibly be bothered by such a trivial matter!?

Just then, there was a good item he desperately needed on the market. Although the seller was outrageously asking for a thousand copper coins at this time, Ling Xiao said he didn't care and would buy it himself.

【Wind and Fire Frenzy】

[Quality: Excellent]

[Conditions: Constitution and Spirit reach 10, all other attributes reach 5; Consumes 1 point of Spirit and Stamina per second after activation; Additional consumption occurs when special effects are activated during the period; Requires a fire-attribute attack skill as a sacrifice to permanently learn]

【Special Effects: 1. **Qi Shield (Qi surrounds the body to resist physical attacks. Automatically activated upon skill activation with no additional cost. Can be actively consumed to enhance defense); 2. **Wind Chaser Step (Increased movement speed. Automatically activated with no additional cost. Can be actively consumed for additional speed boost); 3. **Flame Strike (Amplifies attack power with Qi, same as above. Can be actively consumed for additional damage); 4. **Wind and Fire Combo (Consumes 10% of stamina for a rapid combo attack on the target. Multiple hits on the same spot have a high probability of triggering [Explosive Qi]); 5. **Wind and Fire Frenzy Explosion (Attacks and special effects inflict Hidden Burn on the target. Once a certain level is reached, it can be detonated at any time, causing massive damage!)】

[Evaluation: The wind fanned the flames! The fire took shape thanks to the wind! (Activated for 48 hours, can be permanently fixed for 2,000 Ominous Copper Coins)]

It's less of a skill and more like a martial arts manual!

Once you learn it, you'll be able to use a whole range of small skills!

It's excellent value for money!

Even if it costs three thousand copper coins including the purchase price, it's absolutely worth it!

Ling Xiao passed the verification process directly and started chatting privately with the seller.

The one who reluctantly parted with this powerful skill of the "Excellent" grade and put it on the market was none other than the guild leader of "Heroic Ambition".

Cao Xuande: "Holy crap!? Brother Xiao!? How did this happen to you! Don't, whatever you do, don't waste your money!"

[Owl: "???"]
