"Heh, to be able to describe cowardice in such a refined and elegant way, it seems that cowardice is written into the blood of your water bear clan!" Jiang Yuan said irritably.
"Big brother, I have a name! People used to call me the Undying God, and you can call me that if you don't mind!" The water bear was immersed in glorious memories.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Yuan rejected its suggestion outright, saying, "With your current situation, do you really think you can bear such a fate? Aren't you afraid of being targeted and killed?"
In this world, arrogance requires strength. If you dare to be arrogant without any strength, you're just asking for trouble.
"Boss, you can't just call me a water bear, can you?" The water bear weakly rolled over. Since becoming Jiang Yuan's undead servant, it had completely accepted its fate, because this state was the most perfect state it could imagine. It had no worries about food, drink, shelter, and most importantly, it was safe enough!
Did you have a nickname before?
Upon hearing Jiang Yuan's question, the water bear immediately replied, "What nickname do we have? Our water bear clan cannot develop intelligence without hundreds or thousands of years of experience. We don't even know who our parents are, so names are optional. Most of us just pick one after we've achieved some small success! For example, my Undying God, I only learned to speak after reaching the Profound God Realm and gave myself that name."
Jiang Yuan nodded as if he understood. The reason why humans have the derogatory term "ants" is because most of the insectoid race are ignorant and unable to develop.
"Alright, then you can give yourself a new name." Jiang Yuan didn't plan to name it anyway, since his naming skills were terrible.
"Now that I have become my elder brother's subordinate, and will be the number one general in the Reincarnation Space in the future, I will dare to borrow my elder brother's surname and name myself Jiang Jun." The water bear waved its eight appendages, showing off its power.
Jiang Yuan was speechless. "You're just a water bear, why do you need such a flashy name? Why don't you just call yourself the Jade Emperor? That would be much more imposing."
"Brother, what do you think of my name? Doesn't it bring you prestige without you even realizing it? If someone asks in the future, 'Whose subordinate is this so brave?' the moment they hear the name of my general, they'll definitely picture your invincible figure," the water bear said proudly.
"Wait, I seem to remember that you are hermaphroditic, right?" Jiang Yuan was speechless when he recalled the characteristics of tardigrades. He had experienced the feminine side of tardigrades in the Dark River before, and combined with what An Xiaoyu had encountered, there was no doubt that tardigrades were hermaphroditic.
“This has nothing to do with my name,” the water bear retorted.
"Since it is hermaphroditic, we should not disrupt the balance of Yin and Yang, otherwise it will hinder your breakthrough to higher realms in the future. Let's call it Jiang Jun, male or female is fine." Jiang Yuan changed a name for it. Water bears can transform into human form, so a human name is essential for it.
"Alright, thank you for bestowing this name upon me, Brother!" Jiang Jun bowed to Jiang Yuan with a simple and honest expression to express his gratitude.
"There are still fifteen minutes until the shift change. Tell me about your abilities!" Jiang Yuan didn't have the Heavenly Eye, so he couldn't see Jiang Jun's various attributes and abilities for the time being.
"My abilities..."
Jiang Jun fell silent for a while, and finally had no choice but to bite the bullet and say, "It seems I don't have any special abilities, I'm just tough!"
"Heh, that's pretty much like me!" Jiang Yuan couldn't help but think of his own fate, which was truly one where death followed wherever he went. He raised an eyebrow and asked, "So, how many talent slots do you have in total?"
"This!" Jiang Jun pondered for a moment, and finally said, "There are quite a few talent slots, six ordinary talents and one transcendent talent."
Jiang Yuan: "..."
"but!"
Seeing Jiang Yuan's surprise, Jiang Jun could only awkwardly say, "This is just a hidden attribute. In fact, all my talents are useless talents. Apart from the transcendent talent of immortality, the others are all terrible talents."
"That's not right, don't all living beings have three talents? Why do you have so many?" Jiang Yuan was puzzled. Although Jiang Jun himself said that his talents were useless, it was not a problem for him who had the ability to replace talents. He wanted to know more about how this guy managed to have so many talents. It was something that was completely incomprehensible.
"Well!"
Jiang Jun gave an awkward smile, and then, without explaining, displayed all seven of his talents.
"Low-level talent - Five Elements Immunity: Greatly immune to Five Elements damage."
"Low-level talent - Wind and Thunder Immunity: Greatly immune to wind and thunder damage."
"Low-level talent - Light and Darkness Immunity: Greatly immune to light and dark damage."
"Low-level talent - Radiation immunity: Great immunity to negative energy."
"Low-level talent - Stealth: Automatic protection in harsh environments"
"Advanced Talent - Four-Star Fate Wheel (Broken)".
"Transcendent Talent - Immortality (Exclusive): Possesses a near-infinite lifespan."
Jiang Yuan: "..."
At this moment, Jiang Yuan had only three words in his mind—"Really a dog!"
Jiang Jun, this tardigrade, has a whole host of life-saving talents. How afraid of death must you be to have your genes replaced with life-saving talents in the wave of evolution!
"Now I finally understand why you survived five battlefields! It would be an injustice if you didn't!"
