Chapter 10 Main Talent: Savage Physique
Cross the portal.
After a brief moment of distraction, the sound of light rain began to ring in my ears.
Once he regained consciousness, Yu Jing stood in front of the bluestone wall, looking down at the wound on his chest and the belt around his waist with a revolver and a tactical knife hanging from it.
His fingers brushed across the blood and flesh scraps stained with the hoodie, the monster's roar and the sound of gunfire echoing in his mind.
I took my phone out of my pocket and glanced at it; less than ten minutes had passed.
It seems that the flow of time in another world is different from that in the real world.
I don't know if this is the case for every realm, or if the realm chosen for the beginner trial is particularly special.
[Newbie trial completed, system functions unlocking in progress... Unlocked complete]
The message from the Torch Watch perked Yu Jing up. He looked around to make sure no one was there, then quickly checked the watch screen.
What first caught his attention were the two lines of data in the upper left corner of the status bar.
[Leap] 015/100
[Reason] 083/100
Needless to say, his sanity level had dropped significantly after being stranded in a foreign land for an extended period, encountering monsters repeatedly, and eventually contracting the beast-like virus. This inevitably weighed heavily on his mind.
On the other hand, Yu Jing remembered that the jump value had increased to fifteen points after he killed the beast-like priest in the tower.
This value did not decrease after returning to the present world. Combined with the hint given by the Torch Watch, it can be known that returning to the present world through the spatial nodes that already exist in the alien world does not consume jump energy.
In other words, provided there is sufficient warp energy, the Torch Watch might be able to open a portal back to the present world directly within the alien realm, which would undoubtedly be a safety guarantee for him, the watch's owner.
Turn the knob to enter the talent page.
As the novice trial mission is completed, new data appears in the upper left corner of the page.
[Talent Points: 1]
(Can be used to unlock main talents and enhance personal specializations)
[Golden Talent Points: 0]
(Can be used to break through personal specializations and create new main talent slots)
The two different talent points, just from the description, you can tell that the gold talent point is much rarer. To obtain it, you would probably have to meet some harsh conditions, so you definitely can't expect to get it in the short term.
My gaze turned to the three differently shaped emblems arranged in a triangle on the page, which were now glowing faintly.
Bloodborne, Psionic, Acrobatics
Yu Jing clicked on each one to check. Semi-transparent gray-white dots appeared on each of the three talent pages, as if waiting for him to fill in the talent points before they would show their true appearance. This must be the "main talent" that the system was telling him.
The Bloodborne page is the most unique among them.
Besides the consecration point, the soul fire obtained from the watch when the beast priest was killed also appeared in the upper left corner.
If you concentrate, you can see the characteristics of this soul fire.
【Beast Priest (Low-Tier Soulfire)】:
It comes from a priest of the Healing Church who is suffering from the Beast Disease infection. Consuming it can greatly reduce the severity of the Beast Disease infection or cure mild Beast Disease infection. You will gain the personal feat [Untamed Beast], which can also be converted into Soul Shards to enhance your personal feat.
Upon seeing the information that it could cure the beast-transformation disease, Yu Jing immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
He felt fortunate for his earlier decision to stay in the tower and ambush the beast-like priests.
With this soul fire present, there's no need to worry about which talent to activate first; [Blood Source] will definitely be the priority.
Considering the supernatural phenomena that might occur during the talent activation process, Yu Jing decided to go home first.
He unbuckled his belt and tucked it inside his clothes. Since it was raining and there weren't many people on the street, as long as he covered himself up, no one should notice anything unusual about him.
Yu Jing currently lives in Wah King Estate in the old town of Shan Dun, not far from here.
It was a large public housing estate made up of several residential buildings that were nearly fifty stories high.
Tens of thousands of people are crammed inside. Although the public facilities are relatively complete, the living conditions of the residents are not good.
The house he used to live in was a total of more than 60 square meters, with two bedrooms and a living room. It was the result of his deceased parents' life's hard work.
It may sound a bit shabby, but in this era of severe housing and land pressure, having a place to call home is something many people dream of, at least saving them the cost of renting.
......
crunch~
Push open the old door.
Yu Jing, already soaked to the bone, strode into the house.
I took off my nearly tattered hoodie, intending to toss it onto the living room sofa, but after glancing at it, I simply threw it in the trash can. Then I turned and squeezed into the narrow bathroom, standing shirtless in front of the mirror at the sink.
His wet black hair clung to his cheeks, and although he should have looked disheveled, his handsome features made him appear somewhat cold and broken. With two filters, he could probably make many girls feel sorry for him.
However, Yu Jing's attention was entirely focused on the bluish-gray wound on his chest.
In the ten or so minutes it took to rush back to my residence from the stone wall, the animal disease infection worsened far faster than expected.
There was no time to wait. Yu Jing raised the Torch Watch and quickly manipulated the screen, dragging the talent points to the [Bloodborne] page.
next second.
The translucent grayish-white light suddenly burst forth with several spiritual energy channels, flowing from the watch into various parts of Yu Jing's body.
Taking a deep breath, Yu Jing braced himself against the sink to steady his trembling body.
At this moment, his heart was like a roaring engine; with each beat, his blood surged through his body at an even faster pace. Then, a wildness welled up from the depths of his veins, filling every cell and unleashing unprecedented vitality.
I looked up at myself in the mirror.
In a daze, he realized that his whole being was undergoing some unknown change.
Sometimes its pupils transform into the distinctive rings of a hawk's eyes, revealing even the outlines of water stains on the mirror; sometimes its nose bulges out like a dog's, making the stench of blood in the living room trash can even more pungent; sometimes its ears elongate and dart left and right, allowing it to distinguish even the sound of raindrops hitting the air conditioner unit or pipes outside the window...
The above are just the changes in his face; the enhancements at the physical level have brought Yu Jing even greater joy.
The wound on his chest healed at a visible speed, leaving only the bluish-gray color caused by the beast infection. Even more surprisingly, he could feel the excess fat in his body being burned rapidly, so much so that white gas streams kept escaping from his pores.
Following this, distinct muscle lines gradually appeared in the chest, abdomen, and limbs.
The entire process lasted no more than five minutes.
Yu Jing felt as if he had undergone a complete transformation and rebirth!
Looking at the Bloodborne talent page again, the gray-white dot had been completely filled, and what was finally presented before him was a human body that combined various animal organs in a strangely harmonious way, with the corresponding information appearing.
