Chapter 521: Chapter 231: It Really Wasn’t Me (Two-in-One Mega Chapter)_2

The current battle situation had made the decision for Rein!

Without any hesitation, Rein immediately invested all his remaining Skill Points into Blood Fury Archery.

As his remaining Skill Points went from 3→0, Blood Fury Archery shot up from lv6 to lv9 like a rocket!

In an instant, Rein’s mind was flooded with profound memories of practicing Blood Fury Archery, and for a moment, he felt as if he had spent decades practicing it in some mysterious space!

When Rein gripped his enormous war bow again, it felt completely different!

Especially now, as he had additional memories of the unique secret technique of Blood Fury Archery, ‘Blood Fury Strike.’

There was no time to check the system prompts.

Rein’s expression turned stern, and his whole body radiated a dense, blood-colored halo, with veins on the surface of his skin bulging frightfully!

The bowstring in his hand was stretched to the limit, and the steel arrow in his grip suddenly displayed complex and strange blood-colored patterns, which were even more intense and vivid than when Phil Kraz wielded it.

With a “whoosh” sound!

The blood-colored steel arrow broke through the air at extremely high speed, targeting the fat high priest’s head!

Almost at the same time!

Something else, faster than his arrow, struck the ascending black flame high priest first!

Rein only saw a platinum-colored light, like a meteor falling from the sky, slamming towards the black flame high priest’s location with a boom!

In an instant! An agonizing scream that resounded around broke out!

This scream seemed to come not from the black flame high priest himself, but from the towering presence behind him!

And at the same time, an overwhelming aura, more imposing than the terrifying atmosphere pervading the underground hall, pressed down.

This aura was like facing the supreme emperor of humankind!

Only then did Rein clearly see that the light was a platinum scepter, which, at that moment, had struck the black flame high priest’s chest, creating a hole as big as a bucket.

The high priest’s ascension process was thus interrupted, and the defensive black flames around him also suddenly dissipated.

Therefore, the arrow Rein had just shot, containing the ‘Blood Fury Strike,’ now precisely pierced through the defensive black flame and struck the high priest’s originally round head.

“Pop!”

It was like the sound of a watermelon cracking open!

The high priest’s fat body’s round head abruptly turned into a spray of white, splattered flesh, bodily fluid, and shattered bone…..

At this moment, a flurry of system prompts arrived:

[Your Skill Tokkal Hammer Technique has improved, Experience +2392]

[Your Skill Blood Fury Archery has improved, Experience +2106]

[Your Skill Giant Bear Sword Technique has improved, Experience +899]

[Your Skill Sharpness Technique has improved, Experience +78]

(Note: The above Skill Experience includes a 30% bonus from the Talent ‘Junior Extraordinary Understanding.’)

[Congratulations, you have defeated a formidable enemy, you’ve gained 1 Golden Skill Point!]

[You have gone through a battle, Weapon Master (Legendary) Experience +1997, Wizard Apprentice (Transcendent) Experience +138, Beast Tamer (Transcendent) Experience +109.]

[Congratulations, your Weapon Master (Legendary) Profession Level has increased!]

…

Weapon Master (Legendary) Profession Level had gone up by one level, reaching lv6 (13/3000), which once again awarded Rein with one attribute point and one Skill Point.

Now he had 8 remaining attribute points and 1 remaining Skill Point.

Upon successfully killing the black flame high priest, Rein instantly felt a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, the black flame high priest had not fully ascended before the platinum hammer interrupted the process.

He had picked up a massive bargain!

But where had that platinum scepter come from?

Rein looked around but didn’t discover its source.

Hm…what’s this?

Rein sharply noticed a special aura still lingering around the dead fat high priest’s body.

This aura made him feel vaguely familiar, very much like the great presence that the black flame cultists had been devoutly praying to, only now, the evil taste was much less, and it was filled with a sense of grandeur and greatness…..

Before Rein could get closer, the system prompt chimed again:

[Ding! An unknown high-quality energy suitable for absorption has been detected, Yes/No to absorb?]

(Note: This high-quality energy can be directly converted into Talent Points upon absorption.)

Eh?

It can be converted into Talent Points?

Looking at the system prompts, Rein was completely taken aback!

He had previously pondered this issue; his talents, such as ‘Junior Steel Body,’ were clearly capable of further upgrades, as the word ‘Junior’ indicated so much.

But he could not figure out how to enhance his innate talents.

Because both Skill Points and Golden Skill Points were for enhancing Skills, not Talents.

Now, the answer appeared!

Although Rein was unclear whether this was the only way to acquire Talent Points, at least it was a path.

Overjoyed, he did not hesitate to choose ‘Yes!’

Almost instantly, the strange aura or energy that had been lingering around the high priest’s obese corpse flowed towards Rein like a convergence of rivers, entering his body and surging within!

Rein felt not the slightest discomfort; instead, he experienced an indescribable sense of comfort and transcendence.

If someone were observing from the side, they would notice Rein emitting a faint golden glow and an ineffable sense of authority.
