Netherworld Retrograde

Chapter 308: Chapter 145 Terrifying Talent

No.3 Border City, New District, inside the safe house.

Yin Fire was examining the Mineral Crystal in his hand, the red Thunder writhing within it as if it was about to erupt at any moment.

This was the Summoning Thunder Ore Crystal that Li Yelai had brought back, prepared to ”kill” Golden Armor with.

”It’s a good thing,” Yin Fire smiled, ”you can keep it as a trump card even though it’s a consumable that can only be used once, but the power it contains is very strong. If used at close range, even a Five Senses Spiritual Ability User would be seriously injured.” Yin Fire added, ”Of course, you could also sell it. If you sell it to those Spiritual Ability Families, you might get even more.”

The Summoning Thunder Ore Crystal was an Extraordinary Ore containing powerful Thunder energy, which would explode with a frightening force of Thunder Power once shattered, devouring everything in range.

Those wealthy but less powerful scions of the Spiritual Ability Families might offer a premium to acquire it.

”It’s a pity that something like this can’t be mass-produced, or else we’d hand out a basket of Summoning Thunder Ore Crystals to each Processor, and the Insect Swarm could go eat shit!” Yin Fire clicked his tongue.

Li Yelai then asked, ”Don’t we use this to kill Golden Armor? When the time comes, I have to take back Golden Armor’s Mysterious Material. There mustn’t be any sign of tampering.”

Li Yelai’s original plan was to show the rebellious side of ’Copper Face’, to rebel against ’Golden Armor’.

After that, he would have to take Golden Armor’s Mysterious Material back to the ark.

If he didn’t use the Summoning Thunder Ore Crystal to kill Golden Armor, it might reveal a flaw to the other Ark Chosen Ones.

”That would be too wasteful, this kind of thing can totally be your trump card. As for Golden Armor... he naturally has to die,” Yin Fire shook his head, ”I’ll have Moon Shadow come over, his ability is similar to the effect of the Summoning Thunder Ore Crystal’s explosion, we’ll take care of it afterwards, it won’t reveal any flaws. Now that you have established a firm foothold within the ark, it’s finally time for this guy to die.”

Li Yelai nodded. The authority hadn’t allowed Golden Armor to die immediately only to facilitate his introduction of Li Yelai into the ark, and now that Li Yelai had access to the ark ticket, there was no need for him to continue living.

Afterward, ’Copper Face’ would replace ’Golden Armor’ to continue gathering intelligence within the ark.

Yin Fire continued, ”As for the Magic Potion Recipe you brought back, we will study and verify it as soon as possible, same old rules, the authority will reward you with a Magic Potion. Speaking of which, you are close to your Fourth Awakening, have you thought about which Magic Potion to use?”

Li Yelai had brought back three Magic Potion Recipes.

Two of them, Wanxiang Path·Wing Expansion and Spiritual Eyes Path·Focusing, were Magic Potion Recipes that the authority had not mastered yet.

This presented Li Yelai with an additional choice in his Wanxiang Path.

”Wanxiang Path, Mimicry·Wing Expansion,” Yin Fire explained, ”Although the authority doesn’t have the formula, there has been a Processor who risked his face to develop such an ability. As it happens, he was the fifth generation Champion, the former captain of your Champion Team One. The ability he gained was Wing Expansion, Mimicry·Steel Dragon Wings!”

The fifth generation Champion? Li Yelai contemplated, now he knew even more about Champion Team One.

The fifth generation Champion was a Wanxiang Spirit User.

Most of his abilities were mutated abilities, capable of dealing with various environments and enemies.

Yin Fire said, ”And you know about the information on the steel dragon.”

Li Yelai nodded, the steel dragon lived in the Doomsday Forest, an Ancient Dragon Species with the elemental Talent to control storms.

Its entire body was covered in incredibly tough scales, ordinary Spiritual Ability Equipment couldn’t even scratch it, making it an Ancient Dragon with extraordinarily high defensive power and danger level.

”Therefore, she gained a portion of the steel dragon’s abilities. When the wings closed, she’s like a tank, and when the wings expanded, they could create strong wind pressure to suppress the target’s movement,” Yin Fire explained, ”This is because the steel dragon relies on its wings to release wind pressure, hence she possesses this ability. If you had the heart of a steel dragon and meet the hidden conditions, I would recommend you to use the Wing Expansion Potion.”

”However, we currently do not know what the mutated ability would be if we add the heart of Gulan Sanks into the Magic Potion. So, you need to carefully consider whether there is a conflict between Wing Expansion and the Ancient Thunder Dragon’s abilities.”

”Hmm, that’s why I plan to wait until Chu He has hunted down Gulan Sanks and carefully inquire about Gulan Sanks’ abilities before making a decision,” Li Yelai nodded.

This was also his concern. The abilities gained by a Spiritual Ability User at the time of Awakening were irreversible. If he ended up with a useless Skill, it would be a waste.

This, he would have to wait for more detailed information from Chu He.

”Speaking of Chu He, is he really a Spiritual Ability User from the Lost Land?” Yin Fire picked up the photograph taken by Li Yelai and asked. The photo contained data of Extraordinary Creatures that the authorities were unfamiliar with.

”He claims to be from Original Australia,” Li Yelai responded.

”That is indeed the Lost Land then. The humans there failed to build a Giant City and were defeated by the Forbidden Zone. Over sixty years ago, No.1 Border City sent out a small fleet to seek human allies at sea. They sent back information about that place before losing contact.” Yin Fire mused, ”Who would have thought that such strong Spiritual Ability Users could emerge from there?”

The Lost Land had been controlled by the Forbidden Zone, humans there enslaved by Forbidden Zone Creatures, without resources, legacy, or a safe environment, yet some human Spiritual Ability Users could still evade Forbidden Zone Creatures and grow to Seventh Awakening, which was astonishing!

”It seems the ark has still made some personnel decisions, at least Chu He can access knowledge and resources through the ark,” Li Yelai said.

”Indeed,” Yin Fire raised the photo in his hand and said, ”We can also ask him to hunt the Extraordinary Creatures we need.”
