It turned out that their coming-of-age ceremony lasted 10 days. Besides, he could take Wei Sha and the rhinoceros with him to the Divine Realm. He could even get a Divine Pet Space.
Was this the quest process set up by the system? Or were these characters acting of their own accord? Had he triggered a certain condition that meant he could go to the Divine Realm?
Wei Huo had no idea. He only knew that he only had to wait for 10 days to reach the Divine Realm. He would then think of a way to obtain a Soul-Refining Skill and proceed to a higher realm.
However, before that happened, Wei Huo decided to ask the young man about something.
Unfortunately, the young man seemed to be very busy. After storing the Wild Giant in the Divine Pet Space, he continued searching for the next Epic-ranked creature.
If Wei Huo had not promised to help him, he would have stopped answering Wei Huo’s questions.
When Wei Huo asked for his name, he replied, “My name is Ye Yunxiao. I’m a normal young man from the Divine Realm.”
Wei Huo glanced at him. Normal? How dare you say you’re normal? Out of more than 30 young Gods, I noticed you at first glance. Out of all the Gods, you’re the only one not at the Epic stage.
Wei Huo imitated Ye Yunxiao’s tone and said, “I’m Wei Huo, an ordinary person.”
“God,” Ye Yunxiao stressed. “You have to remember that you are a God.”
Tsk, tsk. Wei Huo could not help but laugh at the young God from the bottom of his heart. The real God is superior. You guys are just NPCs created by God.
Wei Huo continued traveling with Ye Yunxiao. Ye Yunxiao seemed to have a small device that could show the location of the surrounding Epic-ranked creatures. The nearest Epic-ranked creature seemed to be 10 kilometers to the west, but that Epic-ranked creature was probably very weak. Other Gods would not have bothered catching it.
Ye Yunxiao was there to pick up the scraps. He led Wei Huo to the west and they soon saw a swamp.
It was a green swamp. Wei Huo could smell a rotten stench before he even got near it. It was the foul stench of corpses. Soon, Wei Huo heard a few vultures’ cries. A few gigantic vultures descended from the sky and started chewing on an unknown rotten corpse.
Ye Yunxiao seemed to be observing them with the device. Soon, he asked Wei Huo, “Do you have any long-range weapons?”
Wei Huo blurted out, “No!”
If an NPC asks you this question in the game, you must say no. That way, the NPC will give you a long-range weapon.
Ye Yunxiao was shocked. “Why are you shouting so loudly? Since you don’t have any long-range weapons, you can use this one for now.”
Ye Yunxiao handed him a slingshot. Wei Huo was confused as he looked at the slingshot. How could this be considered a long-range weapon?
Wei Huo took the slingshot and soon saw its name.
It was the Divine Wood Missile Slingshot.
Skill: There is a chance that the enemy will enter a disorderly state of mind after being hit.
Ye Yunxiao handed over a small bag of stones. “Have a stone. One less stone is nothing.”
Wei Huo took a stone. It was an unusual stone too.
Little Stone (Holiness +5): There is a chance to knock the enemy out after hitting them. Note: This stone has been strengthened by God. It can ignore 5% of the imposing field’s defense.
Wei Huo was confused. “Are your weapons rare or common in the Divine Realm?”
Ye Yunxiao glanced at Wei Huo and said, “These are weapons made with rare technology and common materials.”
What are you talking about?
Wei Huo asked, “Can you teach me your rare skills?”
Ye Yunxiao smiled. “If you help me tame this swamp beast, I will teach you!”
Wei Huo was speechless.
This God has a strong sense of surrealism. Could this guy be the protagonist?
Would he start acting cool and slapping him after the coming-of-age ceremony ended in 10 days?
Wei Huo suddenly thought of the giant’s words before its death. It had thought that it was a stepping stone or a roadblock because it had read ‘The Legend of Normal People’s Cultivation’ a few hundred times. Its mission had been to sacrifice its life for a mighty existence like the main character. This was known as the Mission Summons.
As Wei Huo was lost in his thoughts, Ye Yunxiao fished out a ten-centimeter piece of grass. The grass was a mix of three colors: red, yellow, and green. It emitted a weird fragrance as soon as it touched the air.
Ye Yunxiao said, “Take note. This grass can lure the beast out. Just hide behind it and use your slingshot to hit it. I’ll go forward and catch its attention.”
Wei Huo looked at the special slingshot in his hand and asked, “Can I have this weapon when this is over?”
Ye Yunxiao’s face darkened. “No, you will return it to me after this!”
Was this weapon difficult to manufacture?
Ye Yunxiao placed the grass on the edge of the swamp and started retreating. Wei Huo followed suit. Moments later, bubbles started popping up on the swamp. Soon, an incredibly huge monster emerged from the water.
It was a humanoid monster with green fur all over its body. Wei Huo could not see its eyes, ears, and nose. He could only see that it had two hands and two legs. It walked slowly to the shore and arrived in front of the grass.
At first, it seemed confused. However, a moment later, it picked up the blade of grass and placed it in front of its belly. A second later, its belly cracked open. Its mouth was filled with fangs.
Wei Huo was surprised to see that the monster’s mouth was growing on its belly.
He saw the monster’s attributes and introduction on the Information Feed.
Swamp Giant, Epic stage.
Ye Yunxiao took out a pair of golden knives and swords and charged toward the Swamp Giant. “Help me with the long-range weapon!”
Wei Huo lifted the slingshot and loaded it. A moment later, Wei Huo injected electricity into the slingshot.
Instantly, two electric snakes started coiling around the slingshot’s two branches. A strong magnetic field appeared between the two electric snakes.
The slingshot could indeed transmit electricity. Wei Huo held the slingshot in his left hand and held a stone in his right hand. At the same time, he injected electricity into the stone as well. A moment later, the stone was surrounded by lightning.
Can all materials from the Divine Realm transmit electricity through the air?
Normal materials could not transmit electricity and would explode as soon as they were injected. However, these seemingly ordinary slingshot and stone did not do so. In fact, their conductivity was even stronger than the conductivity of bronze!
Ye Yunxiao charged forward and roared without looking back, “Attack!”
Wei Huo let go. “Watch my move. Electromagnetic Accelerator!”
The stone carrying the lightning instantly bounced off and accelerated after passing through the strong electromagnetic field. A moment later, the stone accelerated until it was almost invisible. It brushed past Ye Yunxiao and entered the Swamp Giant’s body.
Ye Yunxiao was shocked by the stone that brushed past him. He was terrified of the terrifying thunder stone, and his hair stood on end. A second later, the stone that entered the Swamp Giant’s body exploded.
