Chu Xiu glanced at Rasputin with deep aning and said indifferently, "That’s enough."
Upon hearing this, Su Jinyu raised her hand and waved, causing the five pillars engraved with ancient patterns to sink back into the ground. The Blood Demon, bound by the electrical net, rose awkwardly, casting a resentful sideways glance at Su Jinyu.
Chu Xiu was sowhat curious and asked, "That’s a very unique skill, what is your profession?"
"[Rune Shaman (A)]," Su Jinyu pursed her lips, seemingly sowhat dissatisfied with her own profession: "Because my professional Level dragged down, I wasn’t seen as a disciple to be cultivated by the Celestial King."
"Of course, that’s not the only reason. My combat test scores were also not high. They said my psychological quality was too poor and that I lacked calmness when facing danger, which is why I eventually chose the path of a researcher."
"But your strength is not weak," Chu Xiu said.
"That’s because the power of a Rune Shaman cos from the understanding of the runes they master, and my talent helps learn them very well. So, even though I haven’t used Cause and Effect Points to enhance, I’ve trained various skills to a high level and even independently comprehended new rune skills."
"Moreover, I am not who I was during the tests back then. Throughout these years, I have constantly honed my combat abilities."
Chu Xiu nodded, as the skills associated with a profession are not fixed. In theory, a Mage profession can entirely master Warrior skills since reality is not like in gas where there are many restrictions. Essentially, all [Professions] are simply a type of [Inheritance].
Like many Mage professions, they will learn so foundational close combat skills such as [Block] and [Fierce Strike], which are not high-level but can be quickly applied in actual combat.
It’s just that learning skills outside one’s profession requires expending a great deal of extra energy and effort, while soone like Su Jinyu, who independently understands relevant skills, is extrely rare.
"Su Jinyu has great potential. The combat power of a Mage-type profession greatly depends on the knowledge they possess, and her talent allows her to learn at a speed far beyond ordinary people."
"If her professional Level reached S, that would be exceedingly remarkable."
Chu Xiu thought to himself.
Coincidentally, he had an Upgrade Spark on hand, and he had even seen the [Resurrection Wine] that Su Jinyu desperately needed in the treasury of the Endless Blood Pool, which Rasputin had clamored for at the ti.
However, he naturally wouldn’t be so bored as to give away these precious items for nothing.
Without thinking much more, Chu Xiu turned his gaze to Rasputin: "Can you sense those components now?"
Rasputin, with his head drooping and light black smoke rising from his back, appeared small and pitiful, replied honestly: "I can sense there are four pieces within a radius of twenty miles, but they’ve all been found and are currently being transported back by the Corrupted Soldiers."
"As for beyond, I can sense there’s still a large amount scattered, but I truly don’t know the exact locations, or even which direction to begin looking."
Hearing this, Chu Xiu narrowed his eyes: "Rasputin, I hope you understand the cost of deceiving . You’ve managed to acquire a flesh body, so don’t let your greed destroy you."
Rasputin shrank a little, hesitating for a long ti before saying: "There are three cores I sense more clearly: the heart, brain, and Blood Demon Core. These three are the most important components of a Blood Demon and are the foundation of our survival."
"The Blood Demon Core is at the bottom of the pit. I can feel it’s occupied by a being similar to , and that entity has collected seven or eight pieces. As for the heart and brain, they are much farther, at least a hundred kiloters from here, but I can feel these two components aren’t in motion, so they likely haven’t been found yet."
Rasputin’s words made Chu Xiu nod. Although he wasn’t sure if the guy was hiding anything from him, he didn’t dwell on it. Instead, he began contemplating the current situation.
He speculated that the farther the distance, the weaker the entity at the bottom of the pit was in controlling the Corrupted Soldiers. anwhile, the core components like the [Heart] and [Brain] have [Pollution] capabilities far exceeding ordinary components. The species of Abyssal creatures ford near them are also much stronger, making it difficult to retrieve them with small elite forces.
Thus, until the entity beneath the pit breaks through and erges, it would be unlikely to recover the heart and brain.
Thus, the next course of action was very clear.
"First, avoid the opponent’s main forces. Utilize my high mobility to launch interceptions, and with Rasputin’s location sensing ability, intercept components found by corrupted creatures whenever possible, eliminating them as I level up!"
"Thereafter, secure the [Heart] and [Brain] ahead of the calamity below ground!"
Without further thought, Chu Xiu looked at Rasputin: "Lead the way."
...
A few minutes later, riding on the Four-winged Strange Bird and looking down, Chu Xiu’s eyes lit up as he spotted his target.
Under the dense forest not far away, a large number of corrupted creatures were moving at an extrely fast speed.
According to Rasputin’s sensing, this was the largest component nearby. Because it was close to another small component, the two groups had converged. A rough scan revealed that there were close to three thousand Corrupted Soldiers!
These Warrior Tier creatures were well-trained, maintaining formations even while swiftly moving. Each group’s arrangent was reasonable, with gunners responsible for cover, large-bodied shield bearers playing at shield roles, and snipers and scouts who leap between large trees, carrying sniper rifles.
