Chapter 161: Hope for a Three-Talent Strong Person to Emerge in Humanity

The boss's continuous screams heralded its defeat.

It fell to its knees, curling up as large amounts of blue gas emerged from its body.

Its form became increasingly illusory.

Bang!

Like shattering glass, it exploded into countless points of blue light.

With its death, all the shackles on the skeleton warriors disappeared simultaneously.

Lin Moyu also recalled all the skeletons.

They had all been injured during the Meteor Apocalypse skill and needed to recover.

[Killed level 39 Elemental Archmage, Experience +3,900,000]

[Obtained Damaged Divine Flame Staff]

[Obtained Space Crystal]

[Obtained Talent Divine Stone]

[Obtained Shining Intermediate Skill Scroll]

[Damaged Divine Flame Staff: Legendary weapon, damaged.]

[Space Crystal: Can be made into a spatial teleportation stone.]

[Talent Divine Stone: Legendary item, 100% chance to awaken a talent during third career transition.]

[Shining Intermediate Skill Scroll: 100% chance to master an unawakened skill.]

Looking at the rewards, even the usually calm Lin Moyu was shocked speechless.

What were all these things?

Besides the experience being normal, none of the other items were normal.

Why would a level 39 boss drop a legendary weapon?

And a damaged legendary weapon at that, what was going on?

The Space Crystal must also be very valuable.

The Talent Divine Stone could guarantee awakening a talent during the third career transition.

Its value was immeasurable.

Compared to these three items, Lin Moyu felt the Shining Intermediate Skill Scroll was actually the least valuable.

A normal intermediate skill scroll was worth 10 million gold coins.

A Shining Intermediate Skill Scroll would be at least 100 million, or even more expensive.

After all, it was quite rare.

But compared to the other three items, it really didn't seem like much.

Ning Yiyi ran over quickly, "How is this possible? How?"

She ran so fast her face was flushed.

"The Divine Flame Staff! It's the Divine Flame Staff!"

"How can the Divine Flame Staff be here?"

Her little face showed excitement and intense shock.

She only mentioned the Divine Flame Staff, not the other items.

Clearly in her eyes, the Divine Flame Staff was more valuable.

Lin Moyu asked curiously, "What's special about this staff?"

The Divine Flame Staff appeared in his hand. It was covered in scars, with the part where a magic crystal should be embedded damaged.

The embedded item was missing.

Ning Yiyi took the staff from Lin Moyu and examined it carefully, growing more excited as she looked, "That's right, it's this one. It's exactly the same as what I saw in the records."

"The Divine Flame Staff was once the exclusive weapon of the god-level fire mage, Divine Mage Ning Yan."

"Later in a great battle, Divine Mage Ning Yan disappeared, along with the Divine Flame Staff."

Suddenly the Divine Flame Staff began to glow, becoming incredibly hot.

Ning Yiyi was startled, crying out and instinctively throwing the staff to the ground.

Amid the light, a human figure appeared.

The figure emerging from the staff looked exactly like the boss they had just fought.

Lin Moyu's eyes narrowed as he immediately pulled Ning Yiyi behind him, while casting Bone Armor on himself.

Soul Fire burned fiercely in his palm, ready to fight at any moment.

"Young man, don't be nervous!"

A deep voice came from the figure, full of authority.

The figure gradually solidified, becoming clearer.

Ning Yiyi peeked out from behind Lin Moyu, exclaiming, "You're Divine Mage Xu Yan!"

Xu Yan looked at Ning Yiyi with curiosity, "Little girl, you know me?"

"I saw your portrait in the Divine Summer Museum. They introduced your deeds there."

Not just in the museum, even Lin Moyu knew of Divine Mage Xu Yan.

He was a historical figure written into textbooks.

One of the top experts in the Divine Summer Empire's history.

Only those who reached level 90 could be called god-level and called Divine Mages.

Xu Yan was a level 91 Divine Mage.

Lin Moyu also showed respect to such a figure, "Junior greets Divine Mage Xu Yan."

Xu Yan waved his hand, "No need to be so polite. I've been dead for so many years. It's good enough that you still remember this old man."

Lin Moyu could see that Xu Yan was now just a remnant soul.

He had resided in the Divine Flame Staff, relying on its power and the dungeon's power to survive until now.

The dungeon boss earlier, the Elemental Archmage, was controlled by him.

He had used the boss to test Lin Moyu.

Xu Yan said, "I don't have much time left. That battle just now consumed a lot of energy. Listen to me."

Lin Moyu and Ning Yiyi immediately pricked up their ears, listening attentively.

Xu Yan spoke with reminiscence, "Years ago, a space-time rift appeared in Battlefield No. 3, connecting the human and Abyss worlds."

"The Abyss Elemental Demon King led millions of demons in a massive invasion. I led the First Mage Army to meet them in battle."

"In the end we unleashed forbidden spells, destroying the Elemental Demon King and his demon army."

"But unfortunately..."

The result was obvious - mutual destruction.

This was also what created today's Elemental Plains.

The Divine Summer Empire's upper echelons surely knew about this, but hadn't made it public. The specific reasons were unknown.

Xu Yan continued, "In that great battle, I obtained a Space Crystal. It recorded coordinates for a location in the Abyss. Find an alchemist to make it into a teleportation stone, and you can go to the Abyss."

Lin Moyu understood. This was essentially a key, a key to invade the Abyss.

And not from the entrance, but directly into the interior.

This Space Crystal recording Abyss spatial coordinates was priceless.

Lin Moyu said, "I'll hand over the Space Crystal to the empire's leaders when I return."

Xu Yan shook his head, "You can't hand it over. The Space Crystal is soul-bound. Now only you can use it. For anyone else it would just be a useless stone."

"Besides the Space Crystal, the Talent Divine Stone is also soul-bound."

"Young man, do you have a talent?"

Lin Moyu nodded, admitting he indeed had one talent.

A god-level talent, Overall Enhancement.

However, it wasn't naturally awakened, but awakened by the system.

Regardless, he did have a talent.

Xu Yan looked pleased, "Then you must awaken another talent during your second transition. I know it's difficult, but you must strive to do it."

"This way, when you reach level 70 and your third transition, you can use the Talent Divine Stone to awaken a third talent."

"With three talents boosting you, your strength will reach an astonishing level."

"In our human history, there has only been one top expert with three talents. You must become the second."

His eyes were full of hope, hope for the future, hope that a top expert with three talents would emerge among humanity.

Lin Moyu could deeply feel Xu Yan's love for humanity.

He truly hoped humanity could become strong.

Lin Moyu was deeply moved, "I will do my best."

Xu Yan was very satisfied with Lin Moyu's answer. This was good.

Lin Moyu asked, "But why did you choose me?"

Xu Yan spoke with the pride of a god-level mage, "I looked down on those trash. Giving it to them would be a waste."

"I'd rather let these things rot here than give them to useless people."

"Though a while ago there was a little girl who was quite good. I almost gave in then. But unfortunately she came in a team, so she fell short."

"Come to think of it, that little girl looked somewhat similar to you."

Xu Yan looked Lin Moyu over, "Indeed, you two look quite alike."

Lin Moyu had a thought, "Senior, are you talking about her?"

Lin Moyu took out a photo of himself with Lin Mohan.

Xu Yan said, "That's right, it's her. The little girl had very good talent, but still fell short. So you know each other."

"She's my sister," Lin Moyu said calmly.

He had gotten news of his sister here again.

Knowing his sister was safe put him at ease.

Perhaps he could see her at the Career Holder Tournament.

Lin Moyu asked, "Senior, what level was my sister when you saw her?"

Xu Yan said, "She was already level 35, but that was a few months ago. I don't know about now."

So fast!

Lin Moyu was shocked. How could his sister level up so quickly?

Xu Yan continued, "Level isn't always important. Look at you - you're only level 27 but can already solo a level 30 Hell difficulty dungeon."

"In all of humanity, those who can do what you've done are extremely rare."

"Moreover, your career is very special. Necromancer - it must be a newly appeared career. I hadn't heard of it in my era."

"Your career and talent complement each other very well. I can see you likely have an enhancement-type talent. Your skeletons have combat power far beyond their level and attributes."

"It's just a pity there's still a weakness - vulnerability to control."

"If you could awaken a relevant talent, or master appropriate anti-control skills..."

Xu Yan went on and on.

He hadn't spoken for many years. This was a rare opportunity, so he wanted to say everything he hadn't been able to say all these years.

Lin Moyu and Ning Yiyi listened attentively, without any impatience.

They knew that after they left, Xu Yan would no longer exist.

Outside the dungeon, Xu Yan couldn't survive.

Lin Moyu wanted to leave the Divine Flame Staff behind, but Xu Yan refused.

The Divine Flame Staff was damaged, but could still be repaired.

Once repaired it would be a legendary weapon.

In all of humanity, there weren't many legendary weapons.

Having one more would increase their fighting strength.

"Don't waste it. My soul has fused with the staff, making it stronger after repair."

"Find a new owner worthy of it."

This was Xu Yan's final request. Lin Moyu agreed.
