Chapter 1109 - A Secret Only One Person Knows (1/2)
One Unique Talent for a hundred Awakening Points, this cost was certainly high. However, at least it gave him a clear path. Han Xiao did not trust his luck at all. If he only relied on his luck, he probably would not have a wisp of a Unique Talent even in a hundred years.
He had a guess that the way of customizing would be probably the same as how he created his own Race Talent back when he advanced into Beyond Grade A, by selecting his preferences then randomizing from those given conditions. The Unique Talent obtained after fusing would only have a brief structure. He would need to spend more Awakening Points to activate it.
Potential Points turning into Awakening Points after all class knowledges were at max level was probably the same with other Mechanics such as Manison.
The difference was, unlike him, Manison and the others could not freely choose what to use the Awakening Points on.
Therefore, since the other Mechanics could not decide where to use the Awakening Points, they were probably random. He guessed it would probably feel like a sudden flash of insight for them.
Although the cost is quite high, at least it’s a stable way to obtain Unique Talents. Han Xiao was quite content. He had been eyeing this for many years, and now he had finally seen some hope. However, the quality-price ratio of it was still uncertain. A hundred Attribute Points was equivalent to ten thousand Free Attribute Points, and his Intellect right now was not even thirty thousand despite it being his highest attribute. If he used all those Awakening Points on Free Attribute Points, it would be a huge improvement for him. He would only not make a loss if he were to get a Molding Talent level Unique Talent.
However, since it would be a Unique Talent, its effects would probably be decent. After all, its effects had to match how difficult it was to obtain it.
The Great Mechanic Han still remembered Sorokin’s Unique Talent (Swindler-Sorokin], which gave him a direct twenty-percent bonus just on his Intellect and Mystery attributes, along with a bonus seventy-five percent Esper Ability strength and four levels to all his abilities. It was extremely powerful.
Old Man Manison’s (Virtual Technology Innovation-Manison) gave him a 1.75-times multiplier on his Virtual Technology abilities, on top of his ‘Indestructible Mechanic Empire’ technology.
Both of these were at the Molding Talent level.
You never know until you try it. Although it’s quite costly, I’ll still have to get one and see how it is.
He had just leveled up more than a hundred blueprint abilities and spent all the Potential Points, so his current EXP inventory was not enough to get him another hundred Awakening Points.
Alas, Awakening Points… What a suitable name. Here comes another bottomless pit for EXP. Let’s just think about it after my Promotion…
Han Xiao shook his head. His main goal of maxing the level of all his class knowledges was that one extra God’s Trait Transformation Point during Promotion.
Now that he had completed that achievement, the Promotion at level 340 became his top priority again.
Other than these changes, the interface also mentioned that he had obtained another Ability Fragment of (The First Sanctum).
The Great Mechanic Han had already found a pattern. Whenever he overcame a certain threshold of the Mechanic class, he would receive a (The First Sanctum] fragment.
The first piece came from when he activated God’s Trait Transformation, the second came from the first Universal Treasure he built, the third came from the fifth stage of his main class’ God’s Trait Transformation, and this was the fourth.
I can’t wait to see how many fragments it takes to make it whole. Better not tell me it’s a hundred.
Overall, he was very satisfied with the bonuses that came with maxing the level of all his class knowledges. It had given him a new path to grow. This was the biggest difference between him and the other Beyond Grade As-his growth path was crystal clear.
At the same time, with (Great Machinery Sage), he had more confidence in challenging Manison.
Last time, I lost in the virtual world; this time, I’ve got to fight him in the real world.
Han Xiao was looking forward to it with high morale.
This mindset could be simply explained as: “Stopped, the rain has; stopped, the wind has; now I think, I can do it again!”
Du du du!
While Han Xiao was getting familiar with the changes in his body, someone knocked on his door. Harrison walked in.
Over the past few months, Han Xiao had upheld his belief of not wasting any resource and did not let Harrison get away with doing nothing. Even though this guy was still guilty, Han Xiao did not mind and gave him a job as his temporary secretary.
Other than to find Harrison something to do, this was also because he wanted to have him around so that benefitting from his Luck Glow would be more convenient.
However, only from the results, not only did he not benefit from it, he even somewhat neutralized it.
Of course, the Great Mechanic Han would not admit this. He strongly believed that it was just that Harrison’s Luck Glow did not have a good quality.
Feidin’s Luck Glow still turned out to be the best. It remained unaffected no matter how much of a burden he was.
Seeing that Harrison had walked in, Han Xiao closed the interface and asked casually, “Anything to report?” “Your Excellency Black Star, the dynasty fleet has told me to tell you that they’re going to temporarily leave your team and go back to their usual groupings to execute other missions.”
“What happened?” Han Xiao asked curiously.
“The captain has told me that this is a mission the dynasty upper echelons gave. Something has happened with a Star System civilization, and it’s not suitable for you to deal with.”
“What are the details?”
“I brought the information regarding the incident. Please take a look.”
Harrison took out a set of data and displayed it on the virtual screen.
Han Xiao quickly looked through and understood.
In the past few months, the various civilizations of the Ancient Star Desert had come to understand the big picture and cooperated fully with the three Universal Civilizations’ operations on the surface, not causing any problems like the black market once did.
However, when the three Universal Civilizations announced that the antivirus was complete, there seemed to be civilizations that felt that the pandemic was already under control and there would no longer be any dire consequences, so they started to stir things up.
There were three Star System Civilizations who were involved—the Tiger Race, the White Hair Race, and the Ferians. They were not transporting the virus but instead were suspected of using the virus to attack their enemies.
The Tiger Race and the Ferians were in the same Star System. Their territories were right beside one another. They were old rivals and often had conflicts with each other. The White Hair Race was in another Star System nearby, next to the Tiger Race but not the Ferians. Their relationship with the Tiger Race was relatively distant.
This was what the situation was roughly about. Not long ago, a machinery rebellion occurred on one of the important administrative planets of the Tiger Race. Those machines were infected by the Virtual Mutiny Virus, and because they had been disconnected from the network for too long, the trigger condition for the virus was met, and these machines were modified by the virus to hurt life forms.
The virus outbreak was only limited to this group of machinery. They were not large in number, and they could not connect to the internet either, so the other nodes of that planet were not affected. Therefore, the guards of the planet easily annihilated this group of machines. However, there were still civilian casualties.
After an investigation, a rather believable cause of this disaster surfaced on the network—that this group of machines were used by the Tiger Race to study the Virtual Mutiny Virus, and they accidentally lost control of them, which led to this disaster.
