Chapter 12 Talent Awakening
Three items in total, and judging by their names alone, they aren't simple!
Expectation peaked at this moment, and Lin An quickly began checking the item information.
[talent awakening stone]
Realm: Special
Quality: Special
Effect: After use, it will maximize the player's potential and awaken a talent unique to themselves!
Introduction: Your potential is beyond your imagination!
Talent Awakening!
Seeing this description, Lin An's expression couldn't help but be a bit excited!
Because the Junior Cultivation Manual also mentioned things like talents, clearly stating that only a few geniuses of the human race can awaken talents, and the conditions for awakening are mostly quite harsh.
But as long as the awakening is successful, it means this person definitely belongs to the ranks of geniuses, and in the future, they will easily surpass those of the same rank in combat or other professional fields!
As for which specific field, it depends on what the awakened talent is.
But no matter what, being able to awaken a talent is definitely a good thing.
Like Pseudo-humans, it was because of their unique racial talent, Camouflage, that they once developed into a formidable enemy that terrified countless humans.
And now he didn't even need to go through any harsh conditions; he only needed to use the awakening stone to awaken a talent. Lin An expressed that this top-tier newbie gift pack was indeed top-tier!
So powerful!
"Is this what it means to be one step ahead and stay ahead at every step?"
Recalling that the gift pack mentioned earlier that quantities were limited and it was first-come, first-served, Lin An took a deep breath.
Without hesitation, use it!
The awakening stone instantly turned into countless colorful lights, quickly merging into his body.
These lights turned into waves of pure power, traveling through his entire body, giving Lin An a sense of comfort as if suddenly soaking in a hot spring in freezing weather.
"Crack, crack!"
It was as if invisible shackles were rapidly breaking, and the sound of cracking continued to ring out from within his body.
Once the power had completely merged into his body, Lin An seemed to understand the talent he had awakened as if by instinct.
[Talent - Three-Dimensional Balance: When your three-dimensional attributes of Essence, Qi, and Spirit are unbalanced, your lagging attributes will rapidly rise until they reach a balanced state again.]
[Your Dantian feels that its energy lags too far behind Spirit, feels ashamed, and starts to cultivate on its own!]
[Origin Power: +0.01, +0.01, +0.01...]
[Your body feels that its constitution lags quite a bit behind Spirit, strives for self-improvement, and starts to cultivate on its own!]
[constitution: +0.01, +0.01, +0.01...]
Lin An: "..."
After awakening a talent, my body is now competing with itself?
But feeling his constitution and energy constantly rising, Lin An expressed that this competition was good; let the internal competition be even more intense!
"This talent seems a bit too strong."
Lin An rubbed his chin, thinking for a while before expressing his satisfaction.
After all, this talent's name might not look like much at first glance, but in reality, for every point he adds to Spirit, the other two will also increase simultaneously under the influence of the Three-Dimensional Balance talent!
It's just that it might take some time.
In other words, one free attribute point can be used as three!
In the long run, his total attributes will surely be far ahead of others!
And the advantages might not stop there. As far as Lin An knew, to break through to the Second-Turn Transcendent realm later, one needs something called a transcendence inheritance.
Some of the top-tier inheritances have very strict requirements for Essence, Qi, and Spirit.
This is simply being strong from the early stage to the late stage, and even becoming stronger in the later stages!
"Finally, I have a bit of that 'cheating' feeling!"
The corners of Lin An's mouth curled up, but he still warned himself not to get too carried away.
After all, the world's heroes are like carps crossing a river; he didn't know what powerful items or talents other players who also received the top-tier newbie gift pack might have.
Lin An inexplicably thought of the Supernatural Ability Administration Bureau he had just seen. Thinking about it now, relying on official power, they had probably already cleared many disasters.
And disasters on Blue Star will 100% drop treasure chests. In that case, the treasures in the hands of the Supernatural Ability Administration Bureau would probably be more than one could imagine.
Thinking this way, Lin An actually felt it was a good thing.
After all, Blue Star was currently in a state of impending storm. The existence of a strong organization could ensure that order would at least not shatter in an instant.
Furthermore, judging from the fact that killing players doesn't increase experience or drop items, while killing monsters on Blue Star 100% drops treasure chests, and the relatively friendly atmosphere towards fellow humans in Little Stone Pool Village...
Lin An boldly speculated that the game probably didn't want the human race to fall into internal strife, but rather to unite to deal with external enemies.
However, remembering the countless terrifying descriptions in the calamity encyclopedia, Lin An also felt that even if the game intended to support them, Blue Star would still have to undergo a difficult journey of apocalyptic survival.
Shaking his head and putting those thoughts aside for now, Lin An looked at another item from the gift pack.
[substitute talisman manual]
Type: Talisman Dao Skill Book
Quality: Excellent!
Effect: After mastering it, you can use your own essence blood to draw the excellent item, Substitute Talisman.
"Talisman Dao skill, Substitute Talisman?"
Lin An was a bit confused, but then found that the Substitute Talisman also had a description.
[Substitute Talisman]
Type: Single-use consumable talisman
Quality: Excellent!
Effect 1 - Passive: When encountering a fatal blow, the talisman automatically activates, turning into a substitute to block the attack.
Effect 2 - Active: After active use, you can perform a spatial exchange with the Substitute Talisman.
Learning Requirements: Spirit ≥ 10 points; Origin Power ≥ 10 points
Remarks: The teleportation distance is the player's total Essence, Qi, and Spirit attributes * 1km. Beyond this distance, the talisman cannot be used, and a maximum of two Substitute Talismans can exist at the same time.
Good stuff!
Seeing these two incredibly powerful effects of the Substitute Talisman, Lin An's eyes flickered slightly.
According to the game's description, this talisman was simply Master's Blade: Fate + Recall!
It could be said to be an ultimate survival item. Not only can it block damage, but it can also teleport to escape. It's simply a must-have divine tool for staying at home, traveling, killing, and escaping!
But there are learning requirements: both Spirit and Origin Power must reach ten points.
This condition would be considered quite high for other players. After all, the human race starts with 0 energy, and relying solely on leveling up and adding points, one would need to reach at least level four to have a hope of meeting this requirement.
Unless they have an item like the cat face mask that relies on Spirit from the start, Lin An felt that most players would probably choose to add to constitution first, then energy, and finally Spirit.
After all, compared to constitution which immediately improves strength and speed, and energy used for more powerful bursts, Spirit's performance in the early stages is indeed not prominent.
Thinking of this, Lin An glanced at his Origin Power and constitution, which were still constantly rising.
In just a few short minutes, constitution and Origin Power had both increased by one point under the effect of the Three-Dimensional Balance talent!
If this continues, it feels like it won't even take an hour for all his three-dimensional attributes to reach ten points!
The corners of Lin An's mouth curled up as he looked at the last item from the top-tier newbie gift pack.
An octagonal... Gray Talisman.
