Global Lords: My Species Can Mutate

Chapter 254: Chapter 252: Bountiful Harvest, Rare Blueprint

[Congratulations, you have successfully cleared the Tier Seven SSS-level Secret Realm, Difficulty Rating: 1000]

[Received 50,000 Magic Energy, Tier Seven Territory Essence x5]

[Due to being the first to clear the highest difficulty Secret Realm.]

[Reward: One SSS-level Treasure.]

[Reward: One random rare artifact.]

A series of prompts sounded in the second after the big cannon pierced through the War Intent Incarnation.

What Lin You did not expect was.

The reward for killing the Tier Eight Leader inside the Secret Realm was only 5 Tier Seven Territory Essence, half of what was outside, and no Tier Eight Essence.

It seems there is a difference between the two.

Although 5 Tier Seven Essence seems quite a lot.

Considering that the Tower of Sin is extremely difficult and requires a lot of time, Lin You estimates he will rarely come here in the future.

After all, he can’t rely on luck to successfully kill the Lord Demon every time.

If something unexpected happens and he encounters a stronger Lord Demon, losing a large number of species would be too costly.

Thinking about it.

He restrained his mind and led the plants to the side of the War Intent Incarnation, who was already half-kneeling, holding the long spear.

Although the opponent’s chest was pierced, losing vitality.

He still retained a last shred of dignity, not collapsing completely.

It was clear.

He must have been a very powerful cultivator before his death.

Even faced with so many plants besieging him, he stood unmoved, fighting alone with the spear, without the slightest retreat.

Lin You greatly admired such an opponent.

Because he considered himself unable to achieve such bravery, battling alone with a spear among thousands.

Furthermore, if not for the Forest Sage and the upgraded big cannon, he might very well have been defeated.

“Rest in peace.”

Lin You whispered gently to the War Intent Incarnation.

The Incarnation seemed to sense his words, and the arm holding the long spear suddenly relaxed, drooping down.

And his body along with the long spear began to gradually dissipate, transforming into starlight drifting towards the top of the tower.

When all had scattered, five glowing objects appeared before Lin You.

Huh?

Lin You was slightly stunned.

Why is the amount more than he expected?

He quickly examined them carefully.

Besides the Experience Ball and Natural Origin, there were three other things.

A green shield, a golden building plan, and a spearhead as big as two fingers.

Before he could think further, the Natural Origin had already transformed into a stream of light, merging into his body, causing his Origin Progress to suddenly reach an exaggerated 22.8%.

However, he wasn’t focused on this now.

After storing the Experience Ball securely, he picked up the shield that looked most like a species secret treasure.

[Species Secret Treasure: Natural Barrier]

[Treasure Type: Enhancement]

[Secret Treasure Level: SSS-level]

[Treasure Effect: Constitution increased by 4%, with each attack received, this effect stacks for 10 seconds; upon reaching 10 stacks, consumes all stacks to trigger “Barrier” effect, ignores all negative statuses for 5 seconds, reducing damage received by 40%]

[Introduction: A secret treasure used for enhancing species, can be used within the Species Base, affecting only a single type of species.]

A defensive treasure?

Seeing the shield’s attribute introduction, Lin You was deeply shocked.

Increasing Constitution by 4% with each attack received, isn’t this secret treasure tailor-made for Ancient War Trees and Ancient Natural Trees?

And when this effect stacks up to ten layers, it even triggers an extra passive effect.

For 5 seconds, ignoring all negative statuses, reduces damage by 40%.

It’s simply a weapon of mass destruction for charging into battle!

At that time, no matter what toxins, freezing, burning, dizziness or confusion, none can affect his Ancient Tree Species.

Especially during large-scale battles with frequent attacks, this will further demonstrate its effect.

Along with the Elf Master’s group healing in the rear.

It instantly raises the survival ability of his Plant Legion a notch!

“What a wonderful item.”

Lin You delightedly admired the secret treasure in his hand.

This is his second SSS-level species secret treasure, and either one brings a tremendous boost to him.

It’s a pity.

The Tower of Sin only guarantees rewards on the first try, otherwise he’d definitely keep re-clearing it.

After storing the treasure, he quickly looked at the spearhead.

If he guessed correctly, this should not be part of the guaranteed rewards for the first clearance.

Upon picking it up, indeed it was true.

[Spear Soul Essence: A tangible item formed by condensing Soul Power, a very rare material, can be incorporated into equipment crafting to allow the equipment to gain an extra effect of resisting spiritual attacks.]

It seems like a scarce crafting material.

Being able to let equipment gain the effect of resisting spiritual attacks, which surprised Lin You somewhat.

The reason why the spearhead shape.

Is probably because its original owner used a spear?

Perfect.

It can be brought back to Mageon for use when crafting Tier Ten equipment.

With Mageon’s forging skills, he should be able to accomplish it.

As for how strong the effect is, he will only know when the equipment is completed.

After storing the spearhead, Lin You looked again at the last golden building plan, taking a deep breath.

With the treasure already received, what remains must be the rare artifact reward.

Rare artifacts.

What could it be?

This sort of looks like a building plan, aside from the different color.

Could it be a rare building plan?

With an eager heart, Lin You gently picked up the plan.

Immediately, an information interface appeared before him.

[Artifact: Magic Energy Airship (Plan)]

[Grade: Rare]

[Durability: 10000]

[Flying Speed: 60 km/h]

[Maximum Speed: 120 km/h]

[Maximum Capacity: 150 people]

[Flying Consumption: 1000 Magic Energy/hour]

[Introduction: A product of the mechanical age, powered by Magic Energy for flight, can be repeatedly manufactured.]

[Manufacturing Requirements: 5000 Wood, 5000 Iron Ore, 5000 Copper Ore, 500,000 Magic Energy, 50,000 Magic Dust, Floating Engraving x1, Power Core x1, Flying Dock Building x1]

“Magic Energy Airship!?”

Lin You stared in astonishment at the introduction on the blueprint, his eyes instantly widening.

Unexpectedly, the randomly awarded rare artifact turned out to be something like this.

With just a glance.

He saw the enormous business opportunity contained within.

If this item could be manufactured, the economic impact on Yellow Sand City would be absolutely immense!

Because once there is such a large flying transportation tool, Yellow Sand City’s trade won’t be limited to transactions with the caravans from Black Origin City.

Instead, this trade can be expanded to other cities, even to other duchies and kingdoms.

Even constructing a flying transport network, transforming Yellow Sand City into a massive central trade city, isn’t impossible!

Would there still be a worry about insufficient Power of Faith then?

The more he thought, the more excited Lin You became.

In comparison, the exaggerated manufacturing materials and flying consumption seemed to be nothing at all.

The only thing that puzzled him was the last three materials needed for manufacturing the airship.

The first two should be some kind of source of energy to drive the airship.

As for the last Flying Dock Building, it seems not to be among the foundational buildings of the attached territory.

“Do I need another building plan?”

Lin You’s brow gradually furrowed.

He had a feeling he had seen this building somewhere before.

“Right! Points Exchange!”

Suddenly, he remembered something, his eyes brightening sharply.

He seems to recall having seen the blueprint for this Flying Dock in the points exchange of the main city!

At that time, because he was unclear about the building’s function, he just glanced over it.

Thinking back now, that thing is unexpectedly a building for docking flying fixtures?

Thinking of this, Lin You immediately put away the blueprint, summoned back the plant, and teleported back to the floating island.

After glancing at the already afternoon sky, he directly teleported back to the territory, hurried towards the direction of the main city, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Unaware of one thing.

At this time, the floating island had already erupted into a frenzy.

“Everyone, look! The score ranking has changed!”

“What’s happening? How did the first place get surpassed?”

“Whoa! Am I seeing things? 1000 difficulty score?”

“Wow! 1000 score!?”

“Am I hallucinating? The highest difficulty?”

“Isn’t it said that this difficulty is impossible to clear?”

“It’s that Lin You again! When did such a talented person appear in the Holy Sanctuary!?”

The lords leisurely roaming on the floating island quickly noticed the changes in the rankings.

In an instant.

Everyone gathered around the ranking stone monument, exclaiming continuously.

First place: Lin You [Plant Type] SSS-level 1000

Second place: Yang Yixiu [Insect Type] SSS-level 995

Third place: Sun Daoting [Undead Type] SSS-level 992

Fourth place: Wen Yanming [Mechanical Type] SSS-level 990

…

Many of them had seen last month’s leaderboard, so they had some impression of Lin You once reaching first place.

But even then, they didn’t think much of it.

After all, there is no shortage of lords in the Holy Sanctuary who can clear a difficulty of 990+, they just usually don’t show off.

But now it’s different.

They’ve all heard of the terrifying 1000 score Secret Realm difficulty.

Some had even personally tried to experience it once; it is definitely not something ordinary people can clear.

Even in the past, it would only appear once every few months.

Lords who can clear this difficulty are all naturally gifted, possessing the potential to become Kings.

It’s imaginable how shocked they are.

They completely didn’t expect such a monstrous talent to emerge in the Holy Sanctuary.

However, what they didn’t predict.

While they were zealously investigating Lin You’s identity, intending to forge a good relationship with him.

A sudden burst of exclamations rose from the crowd again.

“Changed! The board changed again!”

“What’s happening? How did two highest scores appear again!?”

“It’s Yan Lie and Situ Jian!”

“Lin You, who just climbed to first place, was pushed down to third!”

The crowd followed the voice and looked at the leaderboard again.

Indeed, the first and second names had changed to Yan Lie and Situ Jian, even Lin You was pushed down to third.

This instantly left them with expressions of shock and disbelief.

“What is going on today? Did these exceptional talents form a group to challenge the Secret Realm?”

“I remember their relationship wasn’t very good, right?”

“Could it be due to a stroke of luck?”

“Nonsense, what does this have to do with luck?”

The lords debated without pause, each one dumbfounded.

And the leaderboard indeed reflected what they said, showing three 1000 difficulty scores.

Although Lin You was the first to finish, he was pushed to third due to taking the longest time after entering first.

This actually decreased Lin You’s spotlight considerably, which was somewhat beneficial to him.

Ultimately, he wasn’t someone who enjoys being in the limelight.

Moreover, Yan Lie and Situ Jian are frequent contenders among the Tier Seven Lords, naturally possessing deeper strength than Lin You.
