Volume 2: The Growing Flame Chapter 104: Super High Awakening Pass Rate
"They can move! They just moved, didn't they?"
“Are these trees alive?”
"It seems to be alive, a living creature with intelligence!"
The investigators were also extremely surprised.
Obviously, they are well-informed, have seen a lot of evil, and have dealt with a lot of mysterious incidents, but...
How could one not be surprised to see trees twisting like humans?
There was a human face appearing on that big tree just now, right?
He wasn't seeing things, was he?
"What are these?"
"Tree man? Tree spirit? Dryad?"
"Grandma Tree Demon?"
"Can't it be Grandpa Dryad?"
Unfortunately, Fan Anyuan and the others didn’t know the answer either. If they hadn’t been here yesterday, they would have been as surprised as the students.
Their organization has tree demons and cat gods, what else do they lack?
The organization is so amazing, so powerful!
Perhaps one day they will be promoted to senior members or even core members of the organization and will be qualified to know such secrets.
With different thoughts in mind, they walked inside.
After passing through the forest of tree demons, soon, an ancient, vicissitudes of life village appeared before them.
We’ve arrived at our destination!
…
In the village,
On a tall watchtower.
Fang You, dressed in a white robe, stood here, looking into the distance.
The outskirts of the village is where the forest of tree monsters is located... Actually, there are not many of them, only about twenty tree monsters in total, two of which are third-awakening tree monsters, and the rest are first- or second-awakening tree monsters.
All of these were enlightened by me in the past few days.
As for the tree monsters in the copy time and space, he, Wei Jingwu, Wang Hei, and the ancient tree Qingmu had already disappeared with the passage of time.
Lifespan has an upper limit. Even if a big tree can survive for a very long time, enlightenment also has a limit.
That little ray of spiritual wisdom will fade away with the passage of time.
Enlightenment, after all, is only an ability to "manufacture soldiers" rather than truly being able to create intelligent life.
In other words, the power of the golden legendary weapon is not enough.
Is it possible that red-level enlightenment can truly create?
It's hard to say.
The birth of ancient trees and green wood has various prerequisites.
A recruitment certificate, a skill book, breakthroughs under pressure, and wisdom that gradually emerges over a long period of time.
Neither is indispensable.
"However, even if it is difficult to replicate the ancient tree Qingmu, enlightenment is still a real god-level skill."
"A little spiritual light keeps passing away, and it also takes years as a unit. In the short and medium term, one enlightenment can actually create a permanent combat unit, and it is not weak."
"It's a pity that I can't awaken a tree demon with four awakenings, and neither can the ancient tree Qingmu... The tree demon with three awakenings it awakened with all its strength is not as good as mine."
There is a tree demon in the outer tree demon forest, who was enlightened by Qingmu.
The level is slightly lower.
But after all, it is the third awakening, the top combat power on Blue Star. With the Scepter of Glory in hand, he can create it with just a light tap, which is almost a miracle.
With such a strong ability, he is also studying how to maximize it.
"It is the easiest to enlighten the tree demon, and the tree demon's combat power is not weak. It can be said to be the most cost-effective enlightenment."
"The flaw is that the tree demon moves slowly. It's good at defense, but not very good at attacking."
He also tried to enlighten stones and water, hoping to create elemental creatures such as earth spirits and water spirits, but unfortunately he failed every time.
I have also tried to enlighten animals.
It is more difficult to enlighten, consumes much more energy than the tree demon, and the effect is unstable.
Sometimes it alienates animals.
In the detection skill, it is marked as "Contaminated".
"It's similar to being transformed into something evil, but it's not yet at the level of being transformed into something evil."
"But the enlightenment also failed."
"There may be details that I haven't studied thoroughly. If I can study them thoroughly, I may be able to find a living being that is more cost-effective than the tree demon. I may even have a chance to create a special individual like Qingmu."
He plans to take time .
But before that, there needs to be a sufficient number and variety of animals and insects.
Let Xiao Huan issue the task.
…
While Fang You was thinking, Fan Anyuan had already led the students into the village.
This place is very old, or rather shabby.
Even after some renovations, it can still be seen that this is an old building that has gone through a long time, and the only part that can be lived in is the part that has been renovated or simply newly built.
The vicissitudes of time are clearly revealed here.
When they set foot on this land, for some reason, the students who were originally talking a lot, nervous and excited, suddenly became silent .
They can't explain it clearly.
I just feel that on this land, we should not laugh and joke around, we should be serious and have respect and awe.
“Many soldiers have sacrificed their lives here.”
Fan Anyuan looked at the stone road stretching upward, lowered his head slightly, and silently clenched his fists across his chest.
After a while, he led the students up the stairs.
Soon they arrived at the magnificent place of inheritance.
"Before the awakening ceremony, we have to test your mystical accumulation first. You should also know that usually only when the mystical accumulation reaches a certain level can you trigger the awakening."
Fan Anyuan took out a few props.
——A prismatic crystal inlaid on a black stone base.
It's not some advanced gadget, but it requires enough accumulation, knowledge, and materials to be made, and it's used to roughly detect mysterious props.
"It's easy to detect. Just reach out and touch the crystal."
As it was touched, the crystal stone might remain unchanged or emit a faint glow, some strong and some weak.
Several Xinhuo members beside Fan Anyuan were trained and could roughly identify, "This is enough, this is still a little short, and this is much more."
"Those who have enough should stand on the left, those who have not had enough should stand in the middle, and those who have not had any should stand on the right."
Investigators all have mysterious accumulations, more or less, and some even far exceed the baseline.
But no matter whether it was more or less, it all looked the same in the eyes of Fan Anyuan and the others.
They are all people who are ready to awaken.
If you have too much, just skip a level. If you don’t have enough, just make up for it with mystery.
He lifted up a faceless statue, accumulated a thick and mysterious faceless statue, performed a mysterious transfer, and then distributed potions to the students.
Finally, he emphasized:
"Go to the Land of Awakening, find a place to sit down, and drink these two bottles of potion."
"Drink the light blue potion with the scent of flowers first."
"Go if you're ready."
Is this all right?
The Xinhuo students have already taken the potion and are stepping into the place of awakening with excitement.
The investigator who "knew a lot" about awakening was a little stunned.
Is it that simple?
Shouldn't the ceremony be more complicated, more tedious, and more difficult?
But after all, I have been training for a few days and have a certain understanding of the magic of Xinhuo. Since Xinhuo says it can be done, it must be possible.
With the determination of a hero, the investigators stepped in.
Yang Chang saw him off outside the stone gate.
Also a little depressed.
Even so, this is a good thing. When they return, many of them will be awakened, which will greatly enhance the strength of the investigator team.
But when he thought about the many people he would never see again and those familiar figures would sleep forever, he couldn't help feeling depressed.
This is something that must be faced.
He has faced it many times and sent away many investigators, but it doesn't mean that his heart has turned cold.
After thinking about it, Yang Chang couldn't help but turn his head and ask, "What is the chance of awakening?"
Fan Anyuan shook his head. "The instructor or the chief instructor may know, but I have just taken over this matter. However, since the instructor has arranged it this way, the chance of awakening will definitely be greatly increased. Don't worry too much."
Yang Chang also believed it.
Xinhuo has the means to trigger awakening and reduce the risk of this disaster, he believes it very much, but no matter how much it is reduced, it is still a disaster of life and death.
He could only pray.
When we left, there were eighty-eight students and forty-six investigators. We hope that when we come back, half of them will be there.
Half is already very high.
But it will still mean that half of the people will no longer be able to open their eyes.
…
Outside the place of inheritance , the atmosphere is solemn.
Yang Chang stretched his neck to look inside, but saw nothing. The stone door was like a barrier, separating the outside and the inside, like two different worlds.
Time just passes quietly.
Half an hour.
One hour.
Normally an hour is a long time for awakening, but he heard from Fan Anyuan that this time the awakening is done with potion, and there will be a boiling and mysterious process.
Overall it consumes more time.
This was normal, but he still couldn't help but feel nervous.
When the time reached about 65 minutes, the first student came out, an investigator.
After leaving the inheritance place, he could not hide his joy, "Captain Yang, I have awakened, it's done!"
Yang Chang also showed a look of joy, "Where are the others? What's going on inside?"
The investigator who came out scratched his head. "The space inside seems to be partitioned, and the presiding doctor Yinling ordered us to leave once we awaken. I don't know what's going on inside."
Yang Chang couldn't help but become nervous again.
This investigator was just the beginning. Soon, people began to walk out of the inheritance site one after another, with expressions of ecstasy that were difficult to conceal.
Let out a low cry.
Ten people.
Sixteen people.
Twenty-seven people.
Thirty-nine people.
Fifty-four people.
When the waiting time reached one and a half hours, 54 people had come out, 54 awakened ones! Half of them were investigators that Yang Chang was familiar with.
By this time, the speed at which figures appeared at the stone gate had slowed down a lot.
Sometimes no one comes out for several minutes.
When the time reached two hours, Doctor Yinling came out and looked around. "65 awakeners, the awakening pass rate is quite high, not bad."
Very high indeed!
Far exceeded his expectations.
Yang Chang couldn't hide his excitement and bowed deeply, "On behalf of the Investigation Bureau, I would like to express my sincere gratitude."
Finally, after thinking about it, he asked again, his voice became nervous,
"Doctor Yinling, what about the other people who failed to awaken? I want to take their ashes back for burial if possible..."
Yin Ling was stunned, "Who told you that the others were dead?"
"Among the remaining 23 people, 5 failed to awaken and were seriously injured, but they survived. Go back and drink more purification potions to nourish your body, and you will recover."
"As for the other 18 people...they mysteriously failed in their boiling process and never touched the awakening stage."
In other words, the awakening rate this time is actually...
65÷70!
Over 90% success rate!
And no one died!
…
In the land of inheritance, the remaining 18 people slowly woke up.
Jiang Tingqiu opened his eyes, glanced at his hands, and pondered for a while.
"Fuck, I'm not awake yet?!"
