MTL - Weird Deep-sea Game, I Can Fish Without Limit-Chapter 252 New Talent: Talent Deprivation
Chapter 252 New Talent: Talent Deprivation
October 1st, the twelfth cycle, αK49 player world.
In the early morning of autumn, the sun is thin, and the morning wind is cold. If you open more windows, the temperature in the room will drop several degrees.
In the restaurant at home, Li Feng, who was eating breakfast, could feel the cool breeze, but he didn't feel cold.
Because of the extraordinary and godhead, the natural climate will hardly affect him anymore.
On the other side of the dining table, Xue Yu stared blankly at the front. She was tinkering with the system that suddenly appeared in her mind this morning.
Just now, Li Feng asked her what level her player talent is and what the talent name is.
Xue Yu suddenly remembered that when the system first appeared, it seemed that the word "talent" was indeed mentioned, and she also had the talent of a player.
However, for a mermaid who has only been exposed to modern technology for a few days, a more intelligent system makes her feel mentally retarded.
At this time, Xueyu is still trying to find Li Fengshuo's [Personal Information] interface.
"Ah, I found it!"
Finally found Li Fengsuo's personal information interface, Xueyu took a deep breath, almost feeling like he had completed an important mission.
Li Feng stopped chopsticks when he heard this, and asked her:
"What level of talent is it? Uh, or in other words, is there any letter written in the talent column?"
The talent levels of players are F, E, D, C, B, A, S, SS, and SSS, with F being the lowest and SSS being the highest.
Afraid that the culture might be different and the understanding might be biased, Li Feng thought about it, gave an example and asked again.
"Um...that, it..."
However, Li Feng's explanation made Xue Yu even more confused.
She hesitated and said with an expression and tone of whether she had a problem:
"My talent...seems to... have no grades."
"No?"
"Hmm! I really didn't find the letters you mentioned, nor did I find the words 'grade' and 'grade', these words are not found anywhere."
Xue Yu described it very seriously, and at the same time, she felt scared. Now she very much hopes that Li Feng will tell her that it's okay, it's all normal, and other players are like this too.
But Li Feng's reaction was obviously not like this.
'There is no talent level, this...'
I can't tell what I feel in my heart. Li Feng now feels that the Creator God is too stingy. He is still your loyal believer after all, and has worshiped you for thousands of years.
As a result, it actually gave believers a talent with no level, which is too much.
"Well—then don't worry about the talent level, what is the name of your talent, and how does the system explain it?"
Seeing that the mermaid was quite nervous, Li Feng skipped the level and asked about the specific talent directly.
"It seems to be called... talent deprivation?"
Xue Yu said hesitantly, then looked carefully, and found out the system's explanation of talent:
"The talent description reads...
You can kill other players and deprive them of their player talents for your own use. When depriving talents, you can choose and replace them.
What does it mean? Is it up to me to... kill other players and get their talents? "
Xueyu was a little confused.
Li Feng on the side was also shocked that he still had such a talent.
No wonder there is no talent level. I dare say that whatever level of talent she deprives, she has that level of talent.
and.
If the current talent is not satisfied, or if you find a better one, you can also kill the player to get better talent, and then replace your original talent.
It is too much.
Li Feng was in a complicated mood. He overturned the idea that Chuangshi God was stingy to his believers just now, and then murmured:
"Your God still takes care of you."
"But me, I think this ability is only used by villains in TV dramas."
Having gradually understood her gifted snow language, she remembered the various TV dramas with happy endings she had watched in the past few days.
"It doesn't matter, usually, the villain can survive to the last episode."
Li Feng followed her words and added a serious sentence.
"But if you live to the last episode, you will still die!"
"Then you should talk less in the future, villains usually die from talking too much."
Snow language: "...Uh?"
"By the way, have you received the mission yet?"
Li Feng got back to business.
Although the way Xue Yu became a player is different from him, after becoming a player, the system will give quests.
"Well, let me see."
Snow Yu said, trying to find and open the task interface, this time she was much more proficient than last time.
"Indeed there is, it seems to be a task to advance to Transcendence."
Reading the text on the interface, Xueyu continued:
"The task requirement is to obtain a player talent, and the task reward is to obtain the qualification to become an extraordinary person."
The mermaid race is cursed by the Seven Gods. Although they are extraordinary races, they cannot be promoted to extraordinary unless they are truly admired by other races.
So at the moment, the reward of this task is still very attractive to Xueyu, but...
"It's just, where do I go to find players, besides, I can't kill innocent people indiscriminately."
"Um."
Li Feng nodded, thinking about the possibility, but he couldn't think of a suitable target for a while, so he asked again:
"Then, is there a specified time for your task to be completed?"
Xueyu shook her head.
Understanding, Li Feng finally said:
"Since there is no time limit, it can be discussed in the long run.
Killing innocent people indiscriminately shouldn't be done, but you'd better choose a talent that will help you advance in the future. "
…
αK49 Player World, Yuncheng, Research Institute.
"Stowaway X hasn't appeared yet?"
In the conference room, the senior group leader who is also a player sits with a group of official players.
An official player's mobile phone is on hands-free, and he is talking to a field worker waiting at a certain location, asking if X has sneaked here as agreed.
Except, like the previous few times, they got a negative answer from the field staff.
"It's already seven o'clock in the morning, shouldn't the immortal walnut have an attack?"
"Once every twenty minutes, it's seven o'clock now, um, it's happened 21 times."
"21 times, sister Yanyan, isn't X going to become a towering tree?"
In the conference room, some official players were discussing, and some people were asking Huang Yanyan.
Huang Yanyan was noncommittal, she always felt that this matter would not be so simple.
The tree seed that the stowaway X ate, which could make his life worse than death, is called the immortal walnut.
It is a relatively evil means of cursing and controlling people in the world of the endless sea.
There was an old player who got this kind of thing by accident and learned the spell to control it.
After that, the old player brought the indestructible walnut to the player world. After the research institute realized its role, it let each generation of official players learn control spells in case of emergency.
People who are cursed by the immortal walnut will have serious consequences, but the curse itself has many limitations.
First of all, it is not a high-level curse. The immortal walnut is only useful to extraordinary people below the third level.
If it is a transcendent of the third level or above, it will be easy for them to find out when casting the indestructible walnut curse.
And even if they were really cursed, they would most likely be able to resolve it on their own.
Secondly, there are some limitations to the control spell of the immortal walnut.
If the cursed person escapes from control, the immortal walnut will grow by itself every twenty minutes.
Although this kind of self-growth seems powerful, it must start at the time when the old and new days alternate, that is, at zero o'clock the next day, so that it can grow every 20 minutes.
Specifically, when it comes to stowaway X, at the end of the game cycle, all players return, and X naturally escapes control.
But it was precisely midnight, so twenty minutes later, the immortal walnuts would grow on their own.
Although it is not a waste of too much time, Huang Yanyan feels that the twenty-minute window period is too long for X, and he definitely has the opportunity to do something else.
And that person has always held himself in high regard. As a second-level player, he doesn't seem to be alone. Behind him, there must be another world's power.
Huang Yanyan once thought about it, since the relationship with X has come to an end, in order to prevent him from attracting more people and causing unnecessary troubles, the safest way is to make him never go back.
Huang Yanyan feels somewhat helpless about the use of unjust means, and she will not be proud or happy about it, but she is by no means irrational.
Since the relationship with X has reached this level, the questions that should be asked have been finished, and the world and forces behind him are unknown, it is best not to let the tiger go back to the mountain and raise the tiger to cause trouble.
But the Institute's attitude towards this matter is to continue to obtain more information from X, and even control him for a long time, so as to control the world behind him and the technology of that world.
Moreover, the S-level sign-in talent possessed by X, as well as his funeral bird, all made the research institute very interested.
But judging from Huang Yanyan's perception of X, she thinks it's inappropriate to do so, but her rank is too low, and she speaks lightly, so it's not her turn to give opinions on such matters.
There was a sound of paper in the meeting room, it was the official players summarizing the letters passed by each other in the previous cycle.
Most of these letters contain important information, and the research institute will organize and back them up.
Perhaps because they felt that X’s fate was sealed, the players gradually stopped talking about him and started talking about other things.
Seeing this, although Huang Yanyan had concerns, she chose to remain silent.
However, just as the meeting was about to adjourn, a player with younger seniority suddenly asked:
"Team Leader Gao, X did not abide by the agreement. Could it be that he found a way to dispel the immortal walnut? What shall we do next?"
Huang Yanyan also looked at Team Leader Gao when she heard the words. She was very curious about how the higher-ups would respond to X's failure to abide by the agreement.
However, Team Leader Gao shook his head:
"Don't worry about that X, he can't dissolve the immortal walnut.
If you want to dissolve the immortal walnut, you have to become a third-order transcendent in the world of endless sea.
But think about that X, let alone a transcendent, he is not from the endless sea, and he doesn't even know the common language of the world of the endless sea, so how could he be promoted to the third level within 20 minutes.
His ending was already doomed when he chose not to abide by the agreement with us. "
The highest leader in this conference room, Team Leader Gao denied.
Afterwards, he concluded without paying much attention:
"Unfortunately, he could have cooperated with us."
…
ΦT01 World, a majestic palace located on the top of Uranus Mountain.
'It turns out that as long as the marble floor is smooth enough, even if it is pure black, it can emit a soft jewel luster under the sunlight. '
After an unknown amount of time, X, whose whole body was numb and unable to feel his own body, opened his eyes and found that his head was resting on the smooth marble floor.
In the main hall of the palace on the top of Uranus Mountain, sunlight shines from the huge skylight, reflecting on the pure black floor in front of X's eyes.
Inexplicably, the idea just now popped up in X's mind.
How ironic, in the two wasteland worlds he lived in, not to mention the ground, even the dining table could not be so clean and smooth.
‘Yes, if I’m destined to be a tree, then it’s not bad to stay here. '
"It seems that you really like the floor in this main hall."
A slightly smiling voice sounded, and X's heart jumped in shock.
Afterwards, various memories flooded in his numb brain, and he became more and more aware of where this was and who was speaking?
Did not dare to neglect, X wanted to respond immediately, he opened his mouth just as he wanted to make a sound, but found that the branch in his mouth was gone, and his throat was normal.
'This! how is this possible? '
This discovery was not trivial, and X was extremely shocked. He tried to move his body, and as the numbness in his whole body gradually disappeared, X found that there were no saplings on his body.
Suddenly thought of something. X immediately supported his upper body with his elbows, and at the same time opened the personal information interface of the system.
In a line of text, X discovered the change at the first time.
[Number of godheads]: 1/2
[Godhead Fusion Degree (unopened)]: 0 (Opening condition: become a third-level player)
Looking at these two lines of text, X's heart was about to jump out of excitement. His whole body was trembling, and he looked up to see Tanlang standing in front of him.
Then without further ado, he knelt up straight, kowtowed one after another, and repeated loudly at the same time:
"Thank you, Mr. Greedy Wolf, for your kindness in rebuilding!"
Tanlang didn't say anything, and after making him kowtow four or five times, he said lightly:
"Okay, you're too loud, you're scaring the deer in my garden."
Hearing this, X immediately shut up.
"Actually, you don't have to thank me. I don't want to reciprocate. You swear, oh, of course, you can think about it."
In the same calm voice, Tanlang said to X while playing with the white fusiform core of the earth.
As if he really wanted to give X time to think about it, Tanlang walked back to his high platform after saying this.
On the other side, X also reacted, he knew clearly in his heart that there is no gain in vain in the world.
Although that half of Godhead is useless to Tanlang, let alone worth mentioning, it has no reason for him.
Now Tanlang made himself take an oath, that is, let himself be loyal to him and become a member of the Harvest Alliance.
From X’s point of view, this matter is not a loss, but a big profit.
What level of organization is the harvesting alliance, and what level of players can join the harvesting alliance.
Not to mention anything else, just look at this majestic palace and the many third-level players in this main hall.
So at the moment, X agreed from the bottom of his heart, he immediately got up and walked to the center of the main hall, ready to swear allegiance to the master of the Harvest Alliance.
However, at this time, in the center of the main hall, there was another person kneeling upright. It was the player dressed as a king.
I don't know if it's because of lack of time or something, but the king player's body has never been disposed of, and he still maintains his dead posture against common sense.
Kneeling straight, with head half raised, there is no tongue in the wide open mouth, the neck was pinched to pieces by himself, and Qi Gen's severed tongue fell to the ground.
Smelling the strong blood pouring into his nose, X suddenly realized that this person had sworn to Tanlang once.
Moreover, the half of the godhead I got originally belonged to this person.
But what happened to him...
Looking at the blood still spreading all over the ground, X slowed down for a moment.
But in the next second, he recovered as before.
Now he can't care about so much anymore, X thought to himself, rather than being controlled by a research institute that doesn't even have a second-level player, of course it's better to swear allegiance to Greedy Wolf.
After all, Tanlang is a third-level player, and he is still a person who has fused 80% of his godhead. He is the highest-level player among all players in the world. It is not a loss to be loyal to him.
So at the moment, X knelt down beside the kneeling corpse of the king player.
