Lord Zhongtian, True Sight

This is a desolate desert.

М

The scorching yellow sand seemed to stretch to the ends of the heavens.

Sand dunes undulated, stretching endlessly.

In an inconspicuous spot stood a small human town.

That was the Zhongtian Territory.

Lord Zhongtian, Jiang Qingtian, sat on a stone stool, sweat pouring down his face.

He looked to be in his early twenties, but he carried an air of recklessness.

Before him stood fifty burly warriors with extraordinary bearing.

Especially the bearded man at the forefront.

Though he wore only crude leather armor stitched from animal hides.

His eyes scanned like an eagle's, sharp and penetrating.

He looked anything but ordinary.

"Hahaha, Jun Huai, our equipment finally has a reliable source!"

Seeing that Huang Yu had accepted his friend request.

Jiang Qingtian leaped up from the stone stool.

He jumped in front of Jun Huai, intending to embrace him.

"My Lord, please mind your image."

Jun Huai pushed his lord away with a look of disdain, retorting:

"If you had just been a little luckier or quicker with your hands before, how would we have ended up in such a predicament?"

Hearing his subordinate's words, Jiang Qingtian recalled the events of the past two days and felt a surge of anger.

"What kind of speed do those scoundrels have! As soon as equipment goes on sale, they swarm it like rabid dogs; no matter how hard I try, I can't snatch any!"

"I have Soul Crystals and materials, but I just can't buy equipment from the Huanyu Mall!"

However, thinking that Huang Yu had accepted his friend request.

And that he now had an "internal" procurement channel, Jiang Qingtian became excited again.

His Excellent Grade troop, the Halberdiers, were in dire need of equipment.

But he didn't know if it was due to luck or speed.

Every time equipment went on sale at the Huanyu Mall, he was outcompeted.

Last night, he had even paid a hefty price to purchase a batch of equipment from the Chaos Mall.

Thinking back now, Jiang Qingtian still felt a pang of regret.

"Fortunately, from now on, I won't have to compete with those monsters who've been single for a thousand years for speed."

"From this moment on, I, Lord Zhongtian, will be pursuing a high-end, custom route!"

"By latching onto Lord Huanyu, I'll never lack equipment again!"

Jiang Qingtian preened proudly for a moment, a cunning glint in his eyes, and sent a message to Huang Yu.

[Dear Huanyu, you actually accepted my friend request!]

[I'm so excited!]

[I never thought the day would come when I'd appear on your friend list!]

[I've always admired you!]

[Please take good care of me in the future!]

Seeing the messages from Lord Zhongtian.

Huang Yu fell silent.

"Does this guy have something wrong with his brain?"

"The territory has such a imposing name, but why does he talk like this..."

After hesitating for a long time at the block button.

Huang Yu decided to give the other party a chance.

[Speak properly, and don't message me when you have nothing to do.]

[Is Huanyu the Great so heartless? I'm so lonely...]

[Blacklist Warning!]

[...]

[Big brother, I was wrong!]

Seeing that Lord Zhongtian was no longer bothering him.

Huang Yu closed the friend list with satisfaction.

He stood on the castle balcony.

Huang Yu watched as a hundred Spartan Warriors slowly entered the forest.

He had already distributed the communication crystals to Dilios, Musa, and Gannix.

He kept one for himself.

After receiving it, Huang Yu discovered that.

Communication crystals could not only transmit voice and text but also videos of a certain duration!

As long as the two parties were within a hundred kilometers of each other.

He could contact the Spartan Warriors at any time.

If a situation like the previous Orc attack occurred again.

He could even coordinate with the Spartan Warriors to wipe out those Orcs!

The warriors went out to battle.

The Blacksmith was busy forging equipment and researching magic patterns.

The ordinary territory inhabitants were planting taro seedlings, raising Horned Sheep, and clearing the messy trees and stones within the territory.

The entire Huanyu town was busy and harmonious.

Huang Yu remembered that he still had skill books to learn, so he took them out.

The Charge skill book was put in the Huanyu Shop by him and sold for over 300 Soul Crystals.

Now, the three skill books he had were Phantom Sound and Vortex.

As well as the Perfect Grade skill he bought at a discount in the Chaos Mall—True Sight!

[True Sight]

[Grade: Perfect]

[Introduction: A type of ocular technique where energy is gathered in the eyes, allowing one to see energy fluctuations and operations. It can be used to detect the surrounding environment or to check an enemy's energy consumption...

After activating True Sight, it will continuously consume energy...

Under the gaze of True Sight, anything below Extraordinary will have nowhere to hide!]

This was the highest-grade skill book Huang Yu had obtained so far!

It could uncover the disguises and strengths of enemies below the Extraordinary level.

Whether for reconnaissance or combat, True Sight could provide Huang Yu with great assistance.

Huang Yu chose to learn it.

The skill book turned into white light and merged into Huang Yu's body.

"True Sight!"

Huang Yu released True Sight according to the method in his memory.

In his eyes, the world before him turned into a black and white movie.

Within the territory, there were dense, faint yellow light spots.

Those were the ordinary territory inhabitants working.

In the warehouse and the magic pattern research institute, orange light spots formed a continuous area, exceptionally dazzling.

Those were the materials needed for forging equipment.

In the distant forest, a patch of red light was slowly moving away.

Those were the Spartan Warriors who had gone on the expedition!

Huang Yu's vision was no longer blocked by physical objects.

As long as he had energy within his body.

He could find the other party by relying on True Sight!

If Gannix were still here at this moment.

His Shadow Doctrine and Shadow Walk were only Excellent Grade, and they would be useless before Huang Yu!

However... the consumption of this skill was indeed a bit too high.

Huang Yu estimated that the energy he possessed was only enough to maintain True Sight for about ten minutes.

Exiting True Sight, Huang Yu casually learned the remaining two skills.

The first skill, Magic Vortex, could control enemies and also protect himself.

It just didn't have high damage.

But if it was combined with the Frost Scale on the Frost Wave Sword.

The power of the vortex would greatly increase.

The ice crystals mixed into the vortex could scrape away monster flesh.

The frost poison carried by the Frost Scale would integrate into the vortex. As long as it came into contact with water, the frost poison would invade the body, and the opponent would have no way to defend against it.

Huang Yu waved his hand and dispersed the ice crystal vortex in front of the castle.

He assessed his current strength.

"I can attack and defend, I have control, reconnaissance, as well as charm and continuous damage."

"I can be considered a well-rounded caster now!"

Although he wasn't good at close combat.

But with Huang Yu's current strength, it was hard to say who would win against that Orc Shaman.

If he advanced to Tier 2 and awakened a powerful talent.

Huang Yu was even confident he could kill it solo!

It was a pity... Huang Yu still hadn't found a suitable awakening medium.

He looked down on those that were too low level.

He couldn't afford those that were too high level.

Perhaps the Heart of Thunder Element was a coveted item in the eyes of other lords.

But in Huang Yu's mind, unless he was left with no other choice, he wouldn't use an awakening medium below Extraordinary Grade!

"My lord level can't be delayed any longer!"

"Give myself one more day!"

"If I still can't find a suitable awakening medium tomorrow!"

"Then I'll have to reluctantly use Perfect Grade materials..."
