My Talent Panel Can Add Points

”Whew~”

The Blood Erosion Tyrant took a deep breath, feeling a sense of relief. He looked at the Flame Giant King from afar and said, ”This fierce weapon has recently become stronger. The five bottles of Tier Two blood essence obtained after the battle with the Feather Race didn’t fully satisfy it, which led to the earlier incident... It seems the problem is solved for now, but it will probably last less than a week.”

”One week, huh?”

The Flame Giant King frowned slightly. If this blood essence can only sustain it for that short amount of time, the Blood Erosion Tyrant will likely have to charge at other alien races again later.

Providing more blood essence seems like a safe route on the surface, but it might foster an even stronger foe. If the Blood Spear’s digestion and absorption speed continues to increase, it will be an unimaginable burden for these alien races.

But...

What else can they do?

Destroy the Blood Spear?

The Blood Spear is a cursed equipment with divinity aura. If it were truly destroyed, probably the whole world would pay the price, and besides, the Blood Spear itself is not a weapon that can be easily targeted.

It’s difficult! Extremely difficult!

Such top-tier fierce weapons are the last things alien races want to encounter. They’re too hard to deal with, and avoiding being affected requires a massive amount of resources. Moreover, even after pouring in many resources, you might still be impacted. There’s no standard solution.

Now, the Flame Giant King just hopes that the fierce weapon can behave a little, refrain from going berserk any further in this world, and avoid targeting the Giant Race when it does.

He understands the risks of keeping a tiger raised close, but if they don’t do so now, the tiger will just devour them, and the Giant Race will be kicked out of the competition stage immediately.

He hopes it extorts something from the Demon Race!

It’s not fair that only the Giant Race suffers losses!

.....

In the distance, Ye Mingqiu randomly found a place to sit and rest. At this moment, the Blood Spear sank into slumber. This wasn’t a fake sleep but genuine tiredness after ingesting ten bottles of Tier Two blood essence-like treasures.

Due to the urgency of the battle for the Giant King’s clan, it didn’t muddle through with low-level blood essence like the Feather Race. The Tier Two blood essence obtained was relatively higher in quality.

And the Blood Spear had only absorbed part of those Tier Two blood essences before. Many parts were not fully consumed; in such a case, after absorbing more blood essence-like treasures, it naturally entered a state of overconsumption and slipped into temporary dormancy.

Robbing alien races is indeed profitable!

After a couple more heists, if the Blood Spear evolves, maybe I won’t have to keep up the pretense anymore.

In some sense, Ye Mingqiu could actually consider dropping the pretense and eliminating all those alien races right now, but the issue is, if he takes them out now, who would continue to provide him with more gold coins?

The short-term goal has been achieved. Continuing actions might trigger negative effects. It’s time to lay low for a while.

Thus, he took out books inside a cave and continued studying.

This time he was studying ”Dark Attribute Magic Core Competency,” a book Tang Ruobing helped him translate, which was also quite an insightful book.

He rubbed the book’s cover and couldn’t help but recall what happened then.

That day, when Tang Ruobing handed him the book, she smoothly asked, ”You were lying to me that day, right?”

Ye Mingqiu: ”When?”

”You said you spent your allowance on games... but it wasn’t really like that, was it?”

He was silent for a moment and finally answered candidly, ”I can’t hide it from you. Indeed, part of it went into the game, but the majority was spent on studying magic courses and purchasing resources.”

”Why lie?”

”It’s embarrassing.”

With a sigh, Ye Mingqiu looked at Tang Ruobing helplessly and said, ”Back then, I felt if you knew I spent so much money and resources on studying magic, and the result turned out that pathetic... I’d rather you just kill me. Saying it was spent on games at least saves some face.”

He glanced at the sneaky-smiling Tang Ruobing and asked curiously, ”When did you realize something was off?”

”I knew from the start.”

”From the start?”

”Yes, you can fool those who don’t care about you, but you can’t fool someone who’s constantly watching you.” She flashed a brilliant smile, sunlight gleaming off her azure hair like a dazzling layer of gold, beautiful like a picture.

Back then, I was so naive...

Ye Mingqiu couldn’t help but think.

Tang Ruobing paid more attention to him than expected, keeping a close watch on his expenses and game spending. She is a brilliant mage, and under her careful observation, lying was impossible. Her ’unawareness’ was merely her playing along.

If not for the possibility of adding points through this panel, I guess I could still have a decent life?

Though it might be a bit risky

....

Two days later

The Blood Erosion Tyrant, whom various alien races had been closely monitoring, did not continue to move. He remained in one place resting, showing no signs of leaving, and the map marker hadn’t changed.

But still, other alien races didn’t dare to let their guard down. Among them, the Elemental Life, Silicon-based Life, and Ghost Race directly sent trade requests, hoping to purchase the Spiritual Pearl from the Blood Erosion Tyrant at a certain price.

He said, he would consider it.

The Blood Erosion Tyrant did not hide his greed, hoping others would offer higher prices for a last-minute sale. And the alien races saw no issue with it; greed isn’t scary, but a lack of greed is foolish.

Like when playing a game, encountering greedy developers, you can predict when they intend to take your money. But encountering an art-pursuing fool, you never know when you’ll inexplicably be scammed, disgusting you. The two are entirely different concepts.

Most importantly, the Spiritual Pearl is relatively safe with the Blood Erosion Tyrant. As long as he remains greedy enough, he won’t sell it impulsively. Instead, he’ll demand a high price, making the alien races scheme against each other.

This is acceptable to alien races.

Encountering someone uninterested in money, resources, or anything, solely chasing after their art and spiritual pursuits, that’s the kind of alien race they least want to encounter.

- Anti-Tyrant Combat Group -

Mo Ying (Feather Race): What’s with you guys? Why do you plan to give him blood essence-like treasures? We should work together to suppress his power step by step, shouldn’t we? If this guy’s Blood Spear gets stronger, wouldn’t it be harder to deal with him?

Black Shepherd (Giant): Well said!

Black Shepherd (Giant): Then the Feather Race should refrain from giving resources and show us your mettle!

Bewitch (Ghost Race): Speaking with confidence in a seven-day protection period, huh?

Bewitch (Ghost Race): What’s this guy’s real strength? Didn’t your leader fight him? How about sharing some intel?

Black Shepherd (Giant): Very weak, no need to worry. Just mind your own business.

Motis (Silicon-based Life): Got it, this guy is ridiculously strong. Their leader probably got thrashed, otherwise, they wouldn’t agree to a loss.

Black Shepherd (Giant): It’s possible to defeat him as a single force, but the cost of doing so is too great, unacceptable. It’s better to spend money to avoid disaster.

Georgia (Elemental Life): Is there a possibility, I’m just saying a possibility, that this guy hasn’t used his full strength, and still has many cards to play?

Black Shepherd (Giant): Impossible, absolutely impossible! If he were that strong, he wouldn’t just be a World Dominator, nor would he be plagued by such a curse.

Black Shepherd (Giant): Hmm?

Black Shepherd (Giant): Not plagued?

Black Shepherd (Giant): Kids, I just had a terrifying thought. What if... he was strong from the start and wasn’t coerced by the cursed equipment, merely wishing to exploit us for gold coins...

Motis (Silicon-based Life): Rest assured, I’ve spent hefty amounts on detecting it. This guy doesn’t have the ”God” traits, so reaching god’s strength is unlikely.

Motis (Silicon-based Life): A strength without ”God” traits has limits. While it can surpass some weak ”God” trait holders, it can never approach divinity’s level, nor can it be as formidable as you say; this has been proven countless times.

Bewitch (Ghost Race): Indeed, each race has their top talents possessing vast resources. In the piling of countless resources, their ultimate limit cannot reach divinity, nor even hold authority; that is the limit.

Bewitch (Ghost Race): Only by obtaining ”God” traits can one hold authority, without which breaking the ceiling is impossible. Pure attributes have an absolute limit. You’re overthinking it.

Black Shepherd (Giant): That’s reassuring, but I still feel anxious in my heart.
