Chapter 314: Chapter 195: The secret hidden beneath the surface, scavenging for Black Luminous Ore _1
When Lin Xun returned to ’Hermit Canyon’, it was already the second night.
’Broken-horned Sharu’s’ shell memory had overloaded his knowledge, with his current knowledge capacity breaking through the 30,000 mark.
The most shocking truth in his memory was that ’Almighty True Knowledge’ was a god that has fallen into madness....
[You remain in stealth condition, stepping into the canyon...]
[The scene before you surprised you, this is supposedly the time when the mine slaves should be mining. By usual practice, there should be no trace of any miners in the gorge.]
[But contrary to your expectation, rows of mixed-blood half-dragon miner slaves were patrolling back and forth. Instead of holding cross copper pickaxes, they are holding sharp spears.]
[You cautiously walked forward, following the patrolling team, eavesdropping on their whispers...]
[Turns out, your assassination of the half-blood overseer has been exposed. Both you and ’Broken-horned Sharu’ are wanted.]
[Miner friends who used to work with you in the past have joined the temporary guard squad for the dragon nest’s reward, hoping to capture you and ’Broken-horned Sharu’, who have disappeared without a trace.]
[The adults in the dragon nest have dispatched a new overseer to the mine pit. This new overseer comes from another mine pit and is a descendant of a mixed-blood overseer.]
[He inherited the cave dwelling left by the deceased overseer, inheriting all of the overseer’s properties.]
[Do you want to reveal yourself and kill these miners, or first go to the overseer’s dwelling to investigate?]
[Or instead of secretly following the guards, you walk towards the cave that you have vivid memory of.]
[.....]
[At the entrance of the overseer’s cave, a group of miner guards were stationed. In a state of stealth, you silently sneaked into the cave.]
[You snuck all the way to the cave where people dwell, the overseer’s body at the entrance of the cave is not there anymore, even the bloodstains have been cleaned up.]
[The bed in the cave has been removed to another place. The passage to the underground warehouse is uncovered and right before your eyes.]
[You heard some sounds, understanding that the new overseer is in the warehouse.]
[Do you want to enter the underground warehouse?]
[You unnoticeably crawl into the passage, inside the underground warehouse, an ’Up-Looking Mixed-Blood Half-Dragon’ is counting ores.]
[Surprisingly, the number of ores was a bit more than when you last saw.]
[It seems the newly appointed overseer has transferred his collections here too.]
[Do you want to quietly get rid of it or silently leave?]
According to the information he had previously, the bloodline of ’mixed-blood half-dragon’ is nobler than the ’oriental-blood half-dragon’, but to enter the dragon nest, they needed to hoard ores to enhance their bloodline power.
Only when the bloodline reaches the stage of ’pure-blood half-dragon’, they are eligible to enter the dragon nest.
Lin Xun looked at his items. Among them was the ’secret technique’ that ’Broken-horned Sharu’ found.
[The ’Scroll of Hermit Bloodline Tempering Secret Technique’ (Item): an ancient scroll written in the half-dragon language, filled with many twisted patterns.]
[Use this item, you’ll comprehend a special technique named ’Hermit Bloodline Tempering Secret Technique’].
The secret technique is a special skill. Lin Xun tried clicking the secret technique scroll while possessing the Earth Giant shell. No words like ’cannot comprehend’ appeared in the underworld.
But he was not in a rush to use up the skill scroll, as he still is not clear about the actual effects of the skill. The best way is to kill the supervisor, possess him, ascertain the effects of the skill before making a decision.
[You sneakily moved to the back of the mixed-blood overseer, a sharp blade sprung out from your gauntlet and forcefully stabbed it in the back...]
[The overseer, who was joyously counting the ores, had a frozen expression. After twitching a few times, he slowly collapsed...]
[You defeated the ’Up-Looking Half-Blood Half-Dragon’, experience increased slightly.]
[You obtained ’1 large piece of Tenacious Spirituality’].
[You obtained the ’Small Star God Statue’ (scrap)]
[You looked at the dead body in front of you...]
[You have possessed the body of the ’Up-Looking Half-Blood Half-Dragon’!]
Lin Xun opened the panel to look.
The quality of the overseer’s shell was half a level higher than the mixed-blood half-dragon, reaching the Excellent+ level, and the shell’s level also increased from 40 to 45.
Not only did he have a Poisonous Bite skill in his skill bar, there was also a secret technique skill.
[’Hermit Bloodline Tempering Secret Technique’ (Special Skill): The descendants of the Hermits discovered that the ’Black Brilliance Poisonous Ore’ hides the bloodline power of their great ancestors, and this secret technique was researched to extract the power from it to enhance their own bloodline.]
[Using this skill, you can extract the bloodline power from the matter containing the ’Hermit Bloodline’ to enhance your own bloodline.]
[Only hermits’ descendants can use this skill.]
"...So that means, even though the Earth Giant can learn this secret technique, it can’t use this skill."
Lin Xun initially had a wild idea that if he could make the Earth Giant learn this technique, wouldn’t that make him a little dragon too.
Although the shell quality of the mixed-blood and half-blood half-dragon is extremely low, the actual quality of the Hermit bloodline will definitely be extraordinarily high...
"If the descendants of the hermit didn’t betray the ’Almighty True Knowledge’, would I still need to possess a little dragon to infiltrate the enemy? And resort to all methods to enhance the power of the bloodline to sneak into the dragon nest..."
Lin Xun suddenly thought, if he happened to be an envoy of the ’Bright Stars’ and came to the ’Hermit Canyon’, what would have happened.
Would he be treated like a VIP by the little dragons, and even be invited to the dragon nest as a guest?]
