13 Chapter 12 Recruitment and Manifestation_1

Translator: 549690339

After purifying the Root of Corruption, Mu Yuan left with the joy of a successful theft, fearing to be discovered by the monsters that might be attracted by the disturbance.

He did not plan to continue exploring.

Firstly, he had to return to his territory before nightfall on the Eternal Continent. Secondly, Dead Bone had been through several major battles and had already used up a considerable amount of energy.

Skeletons may be tireless and fearless, but they are not perpetual-motion machines. Continuous battles or strenuous activities can lead to their conditions deteriorating.

Taking the previously explored path back, Mu Yuan and his four skeletons rapidly retreated.

Along the way, he couldn’t help but take into account his gains.

The Root of Corruption contributed two Remnant Souls, Wolf King had also contributed one earlier, and Big Goblin was equally rewarding, so in total, he had collected four Remnant Souls.

Not long ago he lamented on online forums that his pockets were empty, along with other players, complaining about the rare drop rate of Remnant Souls.

“But it seems like Remnant Soul is not that hard to obtain, I’ve easily acquired four of them.”

Okay, except for those second-generation players and whales, at this stage probably no newbie could handle Big Goblin. Even Ou Huang, who initially had the three-star troop, wouldn’t dare to fight the level four Big Goblin. If their troop type was damaged, there’s nowhere for them to turn.

After the major loot from the Root of Corruption and previous battles, he had accumulated up to 65.3g of Soul Sand, which made him somewhat rich among the new players.

Of course, the more valuable items were the Remnant Souls and potion items.

The Energy Potion can allow the target to quickly recover their stamina. It’s equally effective for skeleton troops, though less so in recovering energy.

What Mu Yuan cared about was that he could also use this potion.

He was already prepared to play the game all night, but his body couldn’t keep up. With the Energy Potion, this wouldn’t be a problem. With a sip, he won’t succumb to sleepiness, and he won’t go bald from stress either.

“Among the loot this time, the most valuable is this amulet.”

“Amulet (Common)”

“Description: Can block three fatal attacks that do not exceed the level 9 of zero-order. Current remaining uses 3/3.”

This was a lifesaving item; Mu Yuan promptly equipped it on his game character.

His sense of safety skyrocketed.

Amulet is a common item, as are the Energy Potion and RedBlood Fruit, but their values are obviously not equal, much like the gap between the Little Skeleton and the Skeleton Soldier.

After a strenuous journey, Mu Yuan’s game character began displaying debuffs such as ‘exhausted’ and ‘muscle soreness’. He finally made it back to his territory.

“Going out is really not easy.”

“It doesn’t look like I’ve traveled far according to the map? Oh, is it because my game character is too weak? Then it’s no big deal.”

The rugged forest was difficult to traverse, but when he left he could keep pace with the Little Skeleton. However, on the return trip, he lost pace completely.

He was even weaker than a single skeleton!

If he wanted to explore farther places in the future, his own physical condition would be the most limiting factor.

This won’t do.

Mu Yuan already had some ideas. RedBlood Fruit could improve his physical fitness, but the speed increase was too slow. Considering all this, perhaps finding a mount might be more convenient.

Only, what kind of troop could serve as a mount?

While pondering, he had already arrived at the altar.

“Let’s try to recruit some troops.”

Mu Yuan placed one Random Remnant Soul on the Lord’s Altar and lightly tapped the recruit button.

“Ding!”

“Prompt: Commence troop recruitment? The probability of getting troops for this recruitment is… 90%… 9%… 1%….”

“Prompt: You consumed ‘Remnant Soul x1’, ‘5g Soul Sand’, the recruitment process has started…”

“Prompt: You have recruited the ‘Falcon (Common★)’ troop.”

——

“Falcon (Common★): A member of the Flight Series, has a sharp beak and keen eyes.”

It was a common one-star troop.

That’s normal.

Mu Yuan only has singles draw, to recruit two-star troops requires a chain of ten, right? As for three-star level… the appearance rate is 1%, which is higher than some card game draw, but there’s no guarantee. An unlucky player might not even get anything out of a hundred draws.

Moreover,

“At least in card game draw there are limited-time ups, but not in this Supernatural Game! There are so many varieties of ordinary three-star troop types, even if I go gamble, it’s almost impossible to bet on the mount troop type I want, so…”

Compared to gambling, he would rather save up some money to buy specific troop-type Remnant Souls from other players. That’s more realistic.

“Actually, for beginners using all their random remnant souls to take a gamble is not a loss at all. Whatever the recruited troop type, they all contribute to one’s combat power. Just make sure not to get a few pieces of junk worse than the Little Skeleton and Goblin.”

“But I’m different, I’m not well suited to recruiting a bunch of messy troop types, only by specializing in a certain series or certain ones, can the power of evolution be maximized, creating top-level troops that stand tall in the skies.”

“However, the falcon I just recruited is a flight troop type, I can say I definitely didn’t lose out in that.”

This big bird, with long narrow wings, a long and narrow tail, a curved beak with sharp teeth on the edges, and black and white feathers, looks majestic.

In terms of appearance, the falcon looks much better than the Level 1 Little Skeleton. But it’s unclear how much combat power it has.

Mu Yuan silently mulls over the evolution points.

「Skeleton Evolution Points: 1.59」

「Falcon Evolution Points: 0.01」

In the previous major battles, a lot of evolution points were earned, especially in the battle between Dead Bone and Big Goblin. Mu Yuan noticed that “+0.1” appeared several times directly on Dead Bone’s forehead.

It seems that under normal circumstances, Dead Bone does not earn many evolution points but intense physical collisions can still bring about major outbursts.

Mu Yuan immediately evolved the third skeleton soldier and named it ‘Bone Three’, handing it over to Dead Bone for training and management.

And this lone falcon…

“Based on the previous point generation efficiency of the Little Skeleton, a single falcon could produce 0.4 evolution points per day, so it would only take two and a half days to save enough for the falcon to evolve, which is not too slow.”

“I don’t really need to use this falcon as a combat unit. It doing well as a scout would be quite good.”

The night gradually falls upon the Eternal Continent, the area shrouded in thick white fog outside of the lord’s territory, began to resound with sporadic monster roars.

The night is here, it’s time to serve the meal~

Compared to before, Mu Yuan’s territory now has three skeleton soldiers, greatly enhancing the security. At least, ordinary wild wolves coming in now could only be easy prey.

However, the roar sounding like a thunderbolt from a distance still startled him. Fortunately, the thunderous roar gradually moved away. Could this be a powerful monster just passing near by?

The Eternal Continent’s waters seem really deep.

…

The night in Baijiang City is like water, gradually deepening.

Mu Yuan sat in front of the computer, arranged the 007 work tasks in detail. Then, he controls his character to place a few RedBlood Fruits, Energy Potions, and some Soul Sand on the Lord’s Altar like offerings, praying to the… ahem, choosing extraction.

The next moment, a glowing light surged from the altar, wrapping all the items.

The extraction process took about ten seconds.

Soon, it seemed that Mu Yuan saw the light too.

As the light shines radiantly, he saw the vast land, the ruined village, the ancient altar, and the vacant Skeletons.

When the light gradually faded away, a few items appeared in front of Mu Yuan.

An Energy Potion in a small jar, with orange liquid flowing inside; a translucent RedBlood fruit that you’d know is extraordinary just by looking; and some Soul Sand that gave a gorgeous shine, looking like broken gemstones.

Did these treasures really materialize from the game to reality? Even though Mu Yuan has long been aware of the supernatural aspect of the game, the first real extraction of items from the game still made him overly excited. He gulped down three sips of Fat Nerd Merry Drink.

‘Ding!’

‘Tip: Item extraction completed. This extraction consumes 11.9g of Soul Sand.’

Mu Yuan: “…Damn!”
