My Salvation Game Became true?!.

Chapter 74: The 74th Skill Tree with Skill Fruits
 

Black Blade’s move was not a real assessment.

It was just a small display of an instructor’s methods, and at the same time, a factual explanation.

The existence of the extraordinary.

But,

An Jianyou stepped forward and repeated the words entrusted by the mentor, “The extraordinary truly exists, but the mentor said that all gifts of the extraordinary come with a price.”

“You will gradually understand during the training to come that only those who can bear the responsibility and mission can become one of us, and embark on this extraordinary path.”

These were the words the mentor had asked her to say, and she herself felt the same.

She felt a bit of enlightenment and excitement as she spoke.

Especially seeing these examinees in front of her, their faces filled with shock, excitement, and eagerness, she took pleasure in observing their reactions.

As an ‘old-timer’ in the organization, telling the newbies the truth about the world, watching their worldviews get shattered, and seeing their stunned expressions, An Jianyou thought it was… terrific.

Is this the joy of seniority?

No, no, this was only the beginning. The newbies were far from qualifying to understand the truth of the world. They had to pass the assessment first and earn the right to enter the base, and that’s when their worldviews would truly be shattered.

Thinking about it, An Jianyou was filled with anticipation.

She turned her head to look at her best friend Ning Ying, who also seemed somewhat dazed, and poked Ning Ying’s chubby cheek.

“Ying, you should join them in the training too. The mentor said that as long as you can pass the assessment, you too can be granted the seed of the extraordinary.”

Training?! Ning Ying’s neck creaked like a stiff puppet’s as she turned her head, and the demon’s voice echoed in her mind.

Training, she didn’t want to train!

Instructor Black Blade, was… was too frightening!

I don’t want to wuwuwuwuwu/(ㄒoㄒ)/~~

…

“They all look very spirited.”

Fang You withdrew his gaze.

It fell upon two seeds in front of him, no bigger than a thumbnail and faintly levitating above the ground.

— Skill seeds!

They could be imprinted and energized with expert-level skills or above, transforming them into seeds of a specific skill, and producing skill fruit.

Fang You had originally planned to imprint the skills Blade Slash and Palm Thunder, the only two expert-level skills they possessed.

But after some thought, he felt it was inappropriate.

Blade Slash and Palm Thunder were both offensive skills, perhaps slightly different in use, but overall the same. If there were enough skill seeds to imprint a variety of skills, having multiple options would be good.

However, there weren’t enough.

There were only two skill seeds, and each one had to be used wisely.

After days of consideration, Fang You chose two skills—Blade Slash and Mysterious Evil Tracking!

On the left hand side,

He closely observed the skill seed covered in a faint red halo, denoting the Blade Slash Skill which Big Bro Black Blade had already fully energized and imprinted over the past few days.

On the right hand side was the blank skill seed.

It needed an expert-level skill to be imprinted.

Fang You pulled up Black Blade’s profile.

“Black Blade”

“Physique: 14.4”

“Spirit: 4.0→4.1→4.4” (The Spirit value was miscalculated in the previous 65 chapters, and has been corrected)

“Mystique: 12.3”

“Life Energy: 10.4+5”

“Skills: Basic Swordsmanship (Proficient: 34.6%), Blade Slash (Expert: 7.9%), Mysterious Evil Tracking (Expert: 2.3%)”

Among these, Black Blade’s Mysterious Evil Tracking reached the expert level this morning.

Enhancing Black Blade was also a result of deliberate consideration.

Since Black Blade was designated as the instructor, the future use of Blade Slash and Mysterious Evil Tracking skills would also be taught to the newbies by Black Blade.

The more specialized Black Blade become, the more significant his role would be in passing on the flame.

But now, while Black Blade was training the newbies, Fang You thought about it and decided to use the ‘Savior’s Authority’ to borrow the expert-level Mysterious Evil Tracking.

Hum—

Streams of information flowed in, along with some indescribable changes.

Fang You savored the experience.

It was different from the previous times he had used it. Whether borrowing ‘Blade Slash’ or ‘Ghost Control,’ those were skills he didn’t have, but the ‘Mysterious Evil Tracking’ he was borrowing now was not only a skill he possessed, but also one in which he was highly proficient.

This realization was different.

It was like a junior high student suddenly acquiring the knowledge base of high school and then looking back at the junior high textbooks.

Simple, too simple. I can solve these problems!

Fang You pulled up his own panel, and sure enough, his proficiency in Mysterious Evil Tracking had skyrocketed.

It seemed he had discovered a new use for his power.

Fang You’s eyes closed and opened as he used Mysterious Evil Tracking.

Unfortunately, there wasn’t even a strand of filthy wind within the base, failing to showcase the specialties of an expert-level Mysterious Evil Tracking.

He thought for a moment and then moved out of the door.

Standing in front of a window outside the building, he gazed outward.

The faint filthy wind drifted about, and far in the distance, he could still make out one, two, three faint gray beams of light.

Hmm, and a little Mysterious Evil that had just been born?

Right in his field of vision,

in a dark corner about a few dozen meters away, the gray fog suddenly thickened slightly, and a small Mysterious Evil, about the size of a calf, appeared with a faint outline of its body, head, and hooves quite clearly visible to Fang You.

At a master level, he could always catch invisible Mysterious Evil.

At an expert level, the figure of the Mysterious Evil could already be mostly seen, no longer just a gray shadow wrapped in the filthy wind.

It was almost like An Jianyou’s Passage to the Mystic Eye in its ultimate youthful edition.

Fang You raised his hand, and with a crackle, a small arc of lightning shot out, obliterating the little Mysterious Evil that had just been born dozens of meters away.

He then walked back to the base.

The silver-colored gate slowly closed, followed by it fading away like rippling water.

In just a moment, with the gate still a gate and the wall still a wall, one couldn’t spot a trace of the entrance to the base—at least not before the eyes of ordinary people.

…

Fang You returned to the lounge and used Mysterious Evil Tracking, staring, staring, and continuing to stare at the skill seed before him.

In a moment,

Ding! Engraved 3%!

Ding! Engraved 6%!

Ding! Engraved 9%!

After nearly half an hour, Fang You had completely engraved the Mysterious Evil Tracking skill, and upon inspecting the item again, it was:

“Skill Seed (Blade Slash)”

“Skill Seed (Mysterious Evil Tracking)”

“Description: Plant this seed and nurture it with Ghost Crystals to rapidly grow and bear the fruit of the skill. This planting requires 20 Ghost Crystals.”

“Ding!”

“Notification: The current environment does not meet the planting conditions, please bring the skill seed to a soil environment.”

“Notification: A plantation can increase the fruiting rate and reduce the consumption of Ghost Crystals during cultivation.”

New clues obtained!

Unfortunately, he knew without thinking that the plantation would only be possible at least on the fourth level, and the only areas he could currently develop were the training room and the lounge.

The rest were unattainable due to insufficient level.

The next level of access required having 10 Angel Envoys.

But there was indeed a soil environment within the base, located in the recreation area on the second floor, where there was a not-so-small garden.

There was water, trees, and pavilions.

At this moment, An Jianyou came to knock on the door, “Instructor, there’s a Mage named Ming Deng outside who wants to stay with us. He seems to have some connection with the Investigation Bureau.”

Hmm.

That’s not important, he’d just take a look after he was done.

As for the Investigation Bureau, there was no hiding the land, nor was there any need to hide it—he was hoping that one day the Bureau would give him the surrounding land.

As long as the Fire Seed base wasn’t exposed, that was fine. And it couldn’t be exposed; non-Angel Envoys couldn’t even see this door.

Having caught An Jianyou for labor, Fang You had her take the two seeds outside to the garden.

The girl happily ran off with them.

Meanwhile, Fang You picked up his phone.

He wasn’t sure about the real-world planting requirements for a skill seed, but in the Salvation game, he just needed to tap.

“Ding!”

“Notification: The current environment meets the requirements. Do you wish to plant ‘Skill Seed (Blade Slash)’?”

Yes!

Ghost Crystal-20!

In the distance,

in the garden area on the second floor of the base, An Jianyou was gently placing the two skill seeds on an empty patch of soil, several meters apart from each other.

She didn’t know what this was for, but the Instructor must have had his reasons, so she just did as instructed.

She had just stepped back a few paces when she was startled to see the seeds, which had been slightly hovering above the ground, suddenly burrow into the soil.

Then, right in front of her, sprouts broke through the earth, growing at a visibly rapid pace.

In just a moment,

one, no, two small trees, three to four meters high, appeared out of nowhere before her.

Hanging on them were peculiar fruits.

An Jianyou stood under the trees, looking up, her mouth agape in astonishment.
