Chapter 262 Ghoul Xia Lin and skill fusion!
The wishes that have already been generated may be sufficient.
Xia Lin has more than one million wishes, Wenrou has nearly seven million, and if we add the wishes from other walkers in the Ashes, they may be able to collect more than ten million wishes - and this can probably push the plot in the dream to the thirty-fifth day.
But question one: Now the gentleness has disappeared, and I don’t know where it has gone.
Question 2: Even if the dream story is pushed to the 35th day, can the mystery of this ember area be revealed? Can it provide key clues? Not necessarily...
Xia Lin now finally realized the difficulty of this ashen area.
"The clues are hidden too deeply..."
It is clear that willpower is the key.
Dreams are just dreams, and this point has also been pointed out.
However, apart from this, the most crucial thing was not revealed at all...
There is still a problem with the time rules!
This is the most puzzling thing.
The main quest requires travelers to survive for one month and one day, but this survival time is not dream time, but real time.
Real time cannot be calculated.
According to the previous logic, the walkers in the Ashes may encounter an irresistible crisis at the one-month time point, and this speculation may be correct.
But the inability to accurately estimate the real time has turned this trap into an invisible, unknowable, and even unsolvable and irresistible nuclear bomb! "Too few clues and too many mysteries... So, I need a pair of eyes that can see through the truth."
Xia Lin said this after opening the attribute panel.
Then he turned his gaze towards Erying's uncertain cafeteria.
…
Observation, Junyou's skill.
There is no need to mention the strength of this skill, and Xia Lin just happens to lack a detection skill.
In addition, there is very little information about this area, which makes it a good place to observe the power of this skill.
In fact, Xia Lin had long been eyeing this skill, but he had never been able to swipe it out when using the Uncertain Canteen before - his luck was not good.
At this moment, what Xia Lin meant by changing his thinking method was to try to acquire this skill again! This was not an easy task.
After all, he had not been able to get any observation before, so now it was okay? Xia Lin said that things were different now.
It wasn't possible before, but now, there are so many things he can use.
Look at the Properties panel.
[Evolution Points: 17] This line of text caught my eye.
Then he looked at the level of Erying's Uncertain Canteen - SSS level.
As a professional skill, if Xia Lin wants to upgrade Erying's Uncertain Canteen to the foundation level, he needs to consume 20 evolution points.
The existing evolution points are not enough.
The situation seemed to be at a stalemate here, but Xia Lin had already made up his mind.
He simply left his hiding place and did not bother to see whether Wenrou had returned or not. Instead, he took big strides and, taking advantage of the distorted rules of real space in the Cinders, arrived at the western glacier area at an extremely fast speed.
Here, Xia Lin saw the huge monster that was several hundred meters long.
Asgard.
…
Because of violating the rules of the dream, Asgard suffered the same fate as Goode.
The dark red dragon is lifelike, like a huge and exquisite sculpture.
It held its head high, exuding an aura that could fight against heaven and earth, but there was no life in its eyes, only death.
It is dead, and only the corpse remains.
Not to mention that the random combination has not yet completed its cooling down, even if the random combination has already finished its CD, there is no reason why it can be effective on the corpse.
It seems that there is no meaning for Xia Lin to come to Asgard's corpse...
Until Xia Lin took out another prop from his personal space.
[Chapter of Stability (SSS-level item): After use, it can stabilize and open the newly ownerless portable space. 】
The silvery-white, palm-sized Seal of Stability slowly glowed with silver light in Xia Lin's hand.
Xia Lin raised the Chapter of Stability and pointed it at Asgard.
Then he saw the Chapter of Stability in his hand suddenly turn into silver light and shoot into Asgard's body.
This scene made Xia Lin chuckle.
“It is true.”
The real time rules in this ashes zone are different, which confuses the concept of time.
So Xia Lin thought about this in his dream - although the distortion of time rules was disadvantageous to him, could he use this disadvantage to gain some advantages for himself in disguise? Thinking of this, Xia Lin sorted out his cards and soon saw the prop of the Chapter of Stability.
An idea came to mind.
Since Asgard is confirmed to be dead, can the Chapter of Stability have any effect on Asgard?
Theoretically, it seems impossible... because the Chapter of Stability can only stabilize the personal space that has just been ownerless.
However, considering the fact that the time rules in this ashes area are different, Xia Lin feels that there may be some room for maneuver.
——This is the current scene.
Besides, it’s just a try anyway. If it doesn’t work, then think of other ways…
For example, quickly harvest the power of wishes and deduce the plot in dreams.
For example, go find gentleness and let gentleness fill the gap in your willpower.
As it turned out, there was nothing wrong with Xia Lin's idea.
It was at this moment that the Chapter of Stability merged with Asgard's body.
An even more intense white light flashed past Asgard.
Soon, a crack leading to the dimensional space appeared next to Asgard. The endless light flashing from the crack almost blinded Xia Lin's eyes.
[The dragon race is greedy and likes to collect treasures.
They don't care whether it's useful or not, maybe they just want to satisfy their collecting habit. 】
Xia Lin didn't know where this sentence came from, nor was he sure whether it was true.
But anyway, Asgard’s portable space is indeed amazing, and this big lizard is so fat!
As soon as the thought came to his mind, the collection in Asgard's personal space began to flow out of the space, quickly covering the surrounding area and even submerging Xia Lin's ankles.
There are all kinds of exquisite handicrafts - but they are not props, they are just vulgar objects that look beautiful but are actually useless.
These things took up most of Asgard's personal space.
After ignoring these miscellaneous things, the smile on Xia Lin's face quickly became more and more intense.
Because even if you exclude the debris, the profits from this wave of picking up corpses are beyond imagination!
…
God-given essence*35!
The first thing Xia Lin looked for was the God-given source of essence!
Because this thing can provide evolution points.
And the harvest is quite huge.
Previously in the Ashes Zone of the Eighth Animal Realm, Xia Lin had seen such a situation - outside, the price of the God-given Source was quite staggering.
Because the difficulty of obtaining the God-given Essence is different in the Ashes and outside.
Asgard has stored so much of the Source Essence, and it may have the idea of selling it outside to make huge profits.
It does not use it itself, but instead treats these God-given essences as bargaining chips.
It is a very reasonable choice that does not involve much risk.
But Xia Lin is a heavy gambler...
Not only does he have a strong gambling nature, he also urgently needs these God-given blind boxes to provide himself with a breakthrough point.
While opening the blind box, Xia Lin collected other props.
There are healing potions/pills.
There are magic scrolls/disposable magic weapons.
There are equipment items - but most of them are dragon-specific equipment.
There are also a large number of high-level skill crystals! Put the useless ones into your own personal space and only keep the ones that are useful to you.
Soon, Xia Lin finished tidying up and his mouth was almost splitting with laughter.
This wave of corpse collection yielded a huge harvest! ...
First, there were thirty-five God-given essences, most of which were wasted - either useless items or Amber Points.
But the first prize was also drawn - a ray of soul light! Yes, Xia Lin opened a ray of soul light from the God-given source essence! The King of Kings had said before that there was a chance that a Cinder Walker would obtain soul light when opening the God-given source essence. Now Xia Lin personally verified the truth of this statement.
"But it's no use..."
The soul light merged into Xia Lin's body and disappeared.
However, the effect of one ray of soul light is the same as that of two rays of soul light and does not bring any changes.
The first prize was wasted just like that... Xia Lin didn't know whether this reflected his good luck or bad luck.
Never mind.
【SSS-level reset CD item*5. 】
Not only the Restart Star, but also other types of props for resetting skill CDs.
But the random combination has been upgraded to the racial heritage level. These props are useless for random combinations and are only useful for uncertain canteens.
Evolution points*3.
The 3 evolution points were exactly what filled the gap in Xia Lin’s evolution points.
But there is no rush to upgrade the Uncertain Canteen to the racial heritage level.
Don’t waste those SSS-level reset CD items.
In addition to these meaningful gains, the only item worth mentioning from the God-given source is the last one.
It was a black finger bone that was half a meter long!
[Breath of the Abyss (SSS-level equipment)]
[Function: Extraction: This item can absorb the flesh, blood and soul of abyssal creatures and slowly extract them into abyssal essence. After taking the abyssal essence, your racial value can be slightly increased! ]
Any equipment, props or skills that can improve the racial value are rare and precious.
Therefore, even though this thing was only SSS grade, Xia Lin still put it away carefully for future use.
In this way, not a single one of the 35 God-given source essences was left.
Xia Lin looked at Asgard's other treasures.
And these things are even more than what can be obtained from the God-given source.
…
I won’t talk about potions/pills, disposable items/scrolls, and the like.
The SSS grade accounts for the majority, and there are nearly ten good items at the racial heritage level.
But they are all combat consumables.
There are also three job transfer certificates.
They are: Lord of Hosts, Spirit Hunter, and Psychic Tyrant! They are all powerful professions, the kind that will attract thousands of people to buy them when they are sold.
There are thousands of skill crystals, and each one is above S-level.
There are also three racial heritage-level skills.
But it doesn't match Xia Lin's skill system, so Xia Lin keeps it for now. Later, he will use it to gamble on mutations and then sell it for money, or keep it for himself.
It is definitely not usable right now, because continuing to use the skill crystals will pollute the skill pool of the Uncertain Canteen - well, having said that, the skill pool of the Uncertain Canteen has actually been almost polluted.
This is also the reason why Xia Lin wants to upgrade this skill to the racial foundation level.
In addition to these, there are two pieces of equipment and one prop worth mentioning.
One of them is a dark red ring with a skull engraved on it!
【Murder (racial heritage level equipment).】
[Function 1: Brutal: All your attacks that can break the enemy's defense and cause damage to the enemy will have their damage effects greatly increased!]
[Function 2: Blood Soaking: You can get the effects of wound repair and vitality recovery from the enemy's blood! ]
Pure combat equipment.
Just looking at the size of this thing, it seems that Asgard can't use it...
Well, but Asgard has dragon-exclusive equipment with similar effects - but Xia Lin can't use it.
After putting the killing ring on his finger, Xia Lin smiled and looked a little happy.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Because this thing can cooperate with the Dongfeng Immortal Killing Formation to further enhance the lethality of Xia Lin's main combat method!
Look at another prop.
It was a silver-white gun, similar to a revolver, but much larger than a normal revolver.
You could say, hand cannon...
[Grand Opening (Racial Heritage Level Equipment)]
[Function 1: Spiritual Gun: This gun does not require bullets. After pulling the trigger, it will consume 10 points of your spirit to automatically condense a bullet. The power depends on your attributes.]
[Function 2: Guaranteed Hit: The attack of this firearm has the effect of guaranteed hit, and the judgment authority of this effect is at the racial heritage level! ]
[Function 3: Grand Opening: After you activate this gun, your skill effects will be greatly improved in the next ten minutes.]
【Function 4: Not activated.】
[Note: This equipment and another equipment: Magnificent Curtain Call can form a set effect. Only after collecting them, can function 4 be activated. ]
Xia Lin: "Yohoo...it's still a suit."
There is a concept of suits in the Jhin zone, but they are relatively rare. Not to mention the foundation-level suits, which are rare among the rare ones.
This gun has a high collection value alone, not to mention its good actual combat effect.
Xia Lin just lacks the means of ultra-long-range attack...
Uh... Speaking of attack methods, he actually only has one Dongfeng Luxian formation, and then punches and kicks...
In short, Xia Lin wanted this gun.
The last item is a racial heritage item that can reset skill CDs! [Reverse Time Dragon Crystal (racial heritage): a one-time item. After crushing it, it can reset the CD of a specified skill!]
SSS-level items cannot reset the CD of foundation-level skills. This has been said many times.
But the time-reversing dragon crystal can!
This kind of racial heritage item is very, very precious - it can reset the CD of a certain skill, which can change the situation and the outcome of the battle at a critical moment! I can only say that Asgard is indeed rich.
This Jhin area also dealt a heavy blow to Asgard.
It had no way to display its abilities, and just died inexplicably...
As a result, a large number of good goods were sold to Xia Lin at such a low price.
…
Xia Lin, who helped Asgard collect the corpses, was in a very happy mood!
It can only be said that this chapter of stability has been preserved until now and has indeed produced better results.
In a good mood, Xia Lin piled up the remaining unwanted treasures near Asgard as burial objects.
Mumbling something like "I'll burn two for you during the holidays", Xia Lin turned and left.
After returning to the hiding place, Xia Lin suppressed his joy and prepared to face the most critical issue.
The secret of this ember area...
The harvest is temporary.
If I can't get through to the Jhin area, all this is in vain!
Xia Lin did not dare to forget the main purpose of his trip to pick up corpses - to obtain Jun You's observation skills! At present, the preliminary preparations were completed.
Five SSS-level reset CD props were taken out by Xia Lin.
The CD of Erying's Uncertain Canteen also did not turn over properly, but Xia Lin could not wait for the CD of this skill to end.
Gently touching the Lu Ge bracelet, Xia Lin's eyes were deep.
"Lend me some luck..."
Ever since the original Dark Side incident ended, Xia Lin's luck has been average - not bad luck, but not terrible luck either.
Right now, he hopes that the Lu Ge bracelet will work...
The first CD reset begins.
Three skills refreshed, but there was no observation.
Second refresh...
Not observed.
The third time... the fourth time...
Until the fifth time, there was still no observation.
But there is a skill that goes with observation! Recording!
[Record (Racial Heritage Level): Passive skill, exclusive to observers, used in conjunction with observation. You can record everything you have seen (including but not limited to professions, talents, and skills) in your mind! When you face the professions, talents, and skills that you have recorded, you will gain advantages such as high damage reduction, additional judgments, etc....]
Without much thought, Xia Lin chose to keep the recording skills.
In fact, Xia Lin wanted all three of Jun You’s professional skills: observation, recording, and copying.
Professional skills: All-purpose at hand, Xia Lin can also use these three skills.
Although what he needed most at the moment was the skill of observation, he accidentally used the skill of recording. It was hard to say whether the Lu Ge bracelet brought good luck to Xia Lin.
Drag the Record skill from the Doom skill bar to the regular skill bar.
Xia Lin shook his head: "It's a bit off."
But it doesn’t matter, Xia Lin still has a chance.
Open the Personal Properties panel again.
Look at Erying's Uncertain Canteen and 20 Evolution Points.
As Xia Lin thought about it, his evolution points were directly reset to zero.
As for Erying's Uncertain Canteen, it slowly glowed, and its skill description quickly distorted.
Suddenly, the system prompt of the Cinders Zone sounded in my ears! [Your skill: Evil Shadow's Uncertain Canteen, start to evolve! ]
[It is detected that you have professional skills: universal, and skills: record! ]
[You have triggered the skill fusion option! ]
[You can choose to merge the record with the Uncertain Canteen of Evil Shadow to make the skill evolve more powerfully! ]
Xia Lin raised his eyebrows, but he was not as surprised as he was in the past when a skill combination or chain was triggered.
Because this thing is considered a hidden mechanism of the Uncertain Shadow, Xia Lin is no longer surprised by it.
"Can I first see the evolutionary effect without fusion? And then see the evolutionary effect after fusion?"
The system does not respond.
But give the answer with practical actions.
——Yes, you can.
[Evil Shadow's Uncertain Canteen (Racial Heritage Level): Active skill, exclusive to the Uncertain Shadow. Consumes 1,000 points of spirit. After opening, you can choose one of the ten random skills you have ever had to replace a designated skill of the Twin Evil Shadows! The skill has a cooldown of 3 days! ]
It is not a qualitative evolution!
The only difference is that the number of options has increased from 3 to 10, and the cooldown period has decreased from 10 days to 3 days.
Although this level of quantitative change can actually lead to qualitative change, it obviously does not meet Xia Lin's requirements.
Without waiting for Xia Lin to react, the new skill appeared virtually on Xia Lin's personal information panel.
[Evil Shadow's Recipe Book (Racial Heritage Level): Passive skill, exclusive skill for Uncertain Shadow. All the skills and variant skills you have ever possessed will be recorded in this skill! You can spend evolution points at any time to buy back the skills recorded in it! The purchase cost depends on the level and strength of the relevant skills. ]
Skill transformation!
The name has changed...
Active skills become passive skills.
And randomness has become certainty! Just as Xia Lin guessed before, the focus of the Uncertain Shadow profession may not be randomness, but finding certainty in random variables, and even becoming certainty! And this time, the skill fusion has done it! Not sure if it was an illusion, Xia Lin felt that the Lu Ge bracelet was slightly hot, and soon cooled down again.
This made Xia Lin smile.
"Before falling in love, you are accumulating good luck. Isn't this the good luck that comes at the critical moment?"
…
As he focused his attention on the skill of Erying's recipe book.
It was as if a huge scroll was unfolding in Xia Lin's eyes.
Countless skill names appeared in Xia Lin's retina, making Xia Lin dazzled.
Unconsciously, he already possessed a total of 2318 different skills! And all the skills appeared in front of Xia Lin at this moment! This naturally included Jun You's observation! At this moment, Xia Lin was not in a hurry.
He took a quick glance and understood.
"It's a big drain on evolution points."
The skills recorded in Erying's recipe book, even the lowest-level F-level skills, require 1 evolution point - this may be the bottom line of Erying's recipe book.
Beyond that, the purchase requirements for each skill vary—and aren't even strictly tied to skill level.
Not to mention, Xia Lin once possessed many mutant skills, the levels of these mutant skills were difficult to assess, and their costs were also different.
For example: I am my teammate’s Zed: 4 evolution points.
Another example: King of the Shrimp: 28 evolution points! Xia Lin was confused by this number.
All I can say is, Brother Shrimp is Brother Shrimp.
It’s buggy enough, but also expensive enough!
Xia Lin also discovered the skill of observation.
Requires 7 evolution points.
Only a quarter of the size of Brother Shrimp...
But considering that Observation, this foundation-level skill, is only an auxiliary skill, and even though the King of Cowards is not a foundation-level skill, its effect is obvious to all, such a price difference does not seem surprising.
In addition, Xia Lin also found Jun You's four skills: records, copying, absolute observation position, and body of veto.
These are all good skills, Xia Lin wants them all.
Absolute observation position: 12 evolution points.
Veto Body: 6 evolution points.
Record: 5 evolution points.
Copy: 34 Evolution Points.
Copying is ridiculously expensive, even more expensive than Shrimp Brother...
Xia Lin guessed that the skill of copying might be the final form of the combo of observing, recording and copying. These two skills of observing and recording were relatively cheap and seemed to be discounted, but Erying's recipe book added this discount to copying.
"In short, the price tag depends a little on the skill level, but the bulk of it is on the actual effect of the skill."
"It may also be that there are some hidden rules that I don't understand."
Shaking his head, Xia Lin started to get down to business.
(End of this chapter)
