The clamor outside gradually subsided, the booming sounds slowly fading away.
Chu Tian looked up, surveying the walls of this suppression temple.
The walls here were a blood-red hue.
In the center stood the suppressor Chu Tian had mentioned earlier.
He hadn't seen one before, only heard about them.
Initially, Chu Tian had assumed the suppression temple would be a place of high technology.
Now, seeing the suppressor, Chu Tian realized that after Luo Luo and the others shattered it, it resembled a bursting heart.
This heart, and its base below, were indeed of a high-tech nature.
It seemed to be a combination of technology and biology.
On the west side, intricate pipes.
Like blood vessels…
The surrounding walls were identical.
And this greasy substance.
A slippery visual sensation.
“Brother, what’s wrong?”
Luo Luo, standing beside him, clearly saw the change in Chu Tian’s expression.
Ever since he entered, his face had shifted from a smile to a look of seriousness.
“When you entered, was it still beating?”
Chu Tian pointed at the shattered heart.
“Yeah, it was! Just like a heart, beating rhythmically, so disgusting!”
Hearing Luo Luo’s description, understanding flickered in Chu Tian’s eyes.
“What is it, is there something strange?” Luo Luo pressed.
“This suppression temple… is a product of the Blood Race!” Chu Tian stated with certainty.
“The Blood Race?” everyone present questioned in unison.
“Yes, remember where I brought Old Yang and the others back from?” Chu Tian asked them in return.
“Another world…”
“Xuantian Star?”
“Sea of Death?”
Several people blurted out the words they remembered.
“Right, in that place, we ultimately faced the invasion of the Blood Race, a race with only thoughts of destruction, very powerful…”
Chu Tian recalled the final battle.
It was still vivid in his mind.
Countless lives were lost in that battle.
Even Wei Jin, the son of the old City Lord of Weidu… lost an arm.
Three of the four great priests of Myriad Beast City fell.
Only Old Li remained.
Yet, the enemy forces were merely ordinary Blood Race soldiers.
Not a single Blood Race commander had appeared.
Chu Tian briefly explained it to everyone.
All of them wore expressions of shock.
Although Chu Tian had downplayed many aspects, they could still feel the sense of despair.
“So, the appearance of Blood Race artifacts here… is it content from the Heavenly Dao World game, or…?” Jing Kaiyu asked, frowning.
When he was a king soldier, he was the most meticulous person in the team.
He usually spoke little, but when he did, it was often incisive.
“Isn’t this just a game?” Zhao Lei interjected.
“Brother Lei, is your head full of muscle? Brother Chu Tian went through so much, and you still think the Heavenly Dao World is just a game?”
Lin Yu pouted from the side.
“Then…” Zhao Lei, hearing this, tilted his neck and was about to say something.
“Let’s not dally, there’s not much time…
Spread out and search. I don’t think its appearance here is just about this single suppressor.
The structure and facilities here are more like… a Blood Race spaceship I once boarded, a spaceship that breeds Blood Race lifeforms!”
What flashed in Chu Tian’s mind was that very ship…
The one piloted away by the Blood Race King.
In the main control room of the ship, he had met the Blood King.
He had also seen a beating heart, similar to the one here.
However, that heart was a hundred times larger than the one before them.
Chu Tian felt that this place was a scaled-down version of that ship.
“Brother…”
Just as Chu Tian was contemplating, Luo Luo’s voice rang out.
“Did you find something?” Chu Tian hurried over.
“Look at this!” Luo Luo held an arrow feather and pointed at something.
Chu Tian walked closer.
If not examined closely, it appeared to be another protruding blood vessel.
Upon closer inspection, Chu Tian realized this thing was not connected to the surrounding blood vessels.
It looked like a fleshy orb.
Its lower half was embedded within the metallic ground.
Chu Tian crouched down and tentatively reached out, pressing on it.
Unexpectedly, as soon as his palm touched it,
The fleshy orb suddenly pulsed.
It directly swallowed his hand.
Chu Tian was startled.
He quickly pulled his arm back. To his surprise, he managed to withdraw his arm smoothly.
But in that instant…
The entire suppression temple vibrated.
A low hum…
The surrounding walls, the ground…
Colorful lights illuminated, flickering incessantly.
The sound of beeping…
Numerous alarms, in languages they couldn’t understand, blared out.
Suddenly, from the location of the suppressor shattered by Luo Luo and the others, a multicolored beam of light shot out.
The dispersed group immediately turned their attention to it.
A scroll was suspended in mid-air.
Lin Ran, who was nearby, reached out and grabbed it directly.
[Ding… Global Announcement: Dragon Country Northern War Zone player [My Brother is a Dog] has obtained a talent scroll (Splash – God-Tier)! Coordinates: 654561.546181… Can be used after carrying for 12 hours, guaranteed to be dropped upon death during this period…]
The sudden global announcement stunned everyone.
Lin Ran stared blankly at the scroll in his hand.
He was dumbfounded for a moment!
Chu Tian was equally taken aback.
God-Tier Talent… Splash!
The Splash talent was an incredibly powerful offensive talent.
When you attack an enemy, other monsters or enemies around them.
If they are judged to be hostile towards the wielder.
They would also take damage…
This damage was determined by the rarity of the splash.
The damage from God-Tier Splash was as high as… 50%!
This meant that if you attacked the primary target, nearby monsters would suffer 50% splash damage.
It could completely transform a single-target attack into an area-of-effect attack.
And then, area-of-effect attacks would become even more explosive.
Imagine attacking a group of monsters when they are gathered together.
You unleash an area attack.
Each monster triggers the splash…
It would be as if every monster was a bomb.
For dealing with groups of monsters, there was no better God-Tier talent.
Whoosh…
As Chu Tian was in a daze, Lin Ran flicked his wrist.
A white light shot directly towards Chu Tian’s face.
Instinctively, Chu Tian caught it.
[Ding… Global Announcement: Dragon Country Northern War Zone player [I am not a Druid] has obtained a talent scroll (Splash – God-Tier)! Coordinates: 654521.546281… Can be used after carrying for 12 hours, guaranteed to be dropped upon death during this period…]
“Huh?” Chu Tian blinked.
Lin Ran had actually thrown the scroll directly to him.
Although Chu Tian had been envious earlier, he hadn’t desired it.
After all, they were all on the same side; it didn’t matter who got it.
“You already have six God-Tier talents. Didn’t you mention before that collecting them all triggers the twelfth hidden God-Tier talent… 'Deification'?
I also want to see what this 'Deification' is…
I don’t have any talents, let alone God-Tier ones, not even basic ones. Having one wouldn’t be of much use to me!”
Lin Ran was indifferent, his interest lying more in the twelfth hidden God-Tier talent.
