111: Chapter 111 Treasure Hunting Talent!!!

Su Chen felt a surge of warmth in his heart. Whether Su Zichen valued his potential or weighed his worth, this heavy protective gift was a supreme treasure capable of turning the tide of life and death.

"Thank you, Teacher Su."

This time Su Chen did not decline, but accepted it with great solemnity.

Although he prided himself on possessing the divine skill of Resurrection, in a ghostly place like this, one could never have too many life-saving trump cards.

Most importantly, [Resurrection] and [Rebirth] were independent in terms of rule determination.

Normally, if Su Chen possessed two "Resurrection" type skills, once one entered cooldown, the other would also be locked; however, "Rebirth" belonged to a different logic chain, and the cooldowns of the two were not interconnected.

This meant that in extreme cases, Su Chen could pull himself up from the spot twice in a row at full status.

He silently noted this kindness. Once his wings were full-grown in the future, he would definitely repay the cultivation of Jiang Yu and Su Zichen.

After seeing off Su Zichen, Su Chen was in no hurry to deal with that badge. Instead, he turned his gaze toward the [shadow of the evil god boots] in his backpack, reached out with his hand, and activated [Hand of Heaven Stealing].

[Ding! Theft successful, obtained skill: [Shadow of the Evil God]!]

A golden light flashed in the skill bar, and the new skill description made Su Chen ecstatic because it had undergone a qualitative change:

[Shadow of the Evil God]: Sacrifice any legendary-grade piece of equipment to summon the phantom of the Spider Queen Rose to descend for 10 seconds.

"Haha, it worked!"

Originally, this skill was bound to the boots, and the boots would be ruined after use; but now, through the evolution of theft, as long as Su Chen had spare legendary equipment in his hand, he could summon the will projection of that ancient evil god to fight without limit.

Aside from being a bit "money-burning," this was simply a flawless trump card.

As for that badge and scroll, he planned to test them tomorrow after the skill cooldown.

"It's time to set off."

Su Chen put away his smile, threw the Amethyst Thunder-Flame Dragon, which was munching on snacks, back into the pet space, and rubbed the entry ticket to the God-Forsaken Land with his fingertips.

This thing didn't require a fixed teleportation array. As long as it was torn open, one would be randomly thrown into that wasteland abandoned by the gods.

Rip!

A white light swallowed Su Chen's figure, and the villa's living room returned to silence.

Five seconds later, the moment Su Chen's feet touched solid ground, a desolate and deathly aura rushed toward him.

He looked around; all he could see were broken ruins and dried-up ravines.

This place was once the cradle of the original gods and demons, but it had completely turned into scorched earth during the earth-shattering Ragnarok millions of years ago.

The gods and demons had left, and monstrosities had bred.

The arrival of the game "origin" a hundred years ago had turned this place into a primordial jungle for a bloody game between Blue Star professionals, native monsters, and even players from different nations.

Su Chen walked aimlessly. Before long, the road beneath his feet was cut off by a terrifying chasm spanning the earth.

The ravine was bottomless. Looking at its outline, it actually seemed as if a certain god had casually thrown a heavy punch, forcefully plowing a "middle parting" into the earth.

One must know that the space and material density of the God-Forsaken Land were extremely high. To cause such destructive power, how terrifying must the battlefield have been back then?

[Blade of Depravity]!

Su Chen drew his sword and swung a jet-black sword qi, striking the rock layer beneath his feet.

However, the sword qi, which was enough to split mountains and crack stones, actually only left a faint, almost non-existent trace on the ground.

"Is the gap this big?"

Instead of feeling frustrated, a fanatical ambition ignited in Su Chen's heart.

Possessing God-Slaying Power, he would one day become even more powerful than the god who threw this punch!

Just as he was about to proceed along the ravine, his pupils suddenly constricted.

On the opposite bank of the ravine, a magnificent ruin, still hundreds of meters high after collapsing, stood quietly, exuding an inexplicable attraction.

"Let's go, Xiao Zi!"

Su Chen summoned the giant dragon, which carried him across the hundreds-of-meters-deep abyss and landed steadily in front of the ruin's gate.

"There's something!"

Before the dragon could even land, a dark shadow suddenly lunged out from the ruins' shadows.

The giant beast let out a sharp roar, and its claws, carrying a fishy wind, pounced straight at Su Chen's face.

[Purple Flame · Thunder Beam]!

Because Su Chen warned in time, the Amethyst Thunder-Flame Dragon opened its mouth and fired a purple thunder cannon, accurately striking the dark shadow's chest.

"Squeak—!"

The monster fell heavily to the ground, electric arcs jumping all over its body, falling into a brief paralysis.

Only now did Su Chen see the other party's true face, and he couldn't help but curse: "Holy crap, what did this rat grow up eating?"

It was a giant rat over thirty meters in size, its whole body shimmering with a cold metallic texture, its appearance exceptionally hideous.

[legendary-grade BOSS: Gold-Eating Rat · Lv88]

[HP]: 2.9 Billion

[Attributes]: Strength 150,000, Constitution 300,000, Agility 310,000

[Talent]: [Gold-Eating] (A-grade), [Treasure Hunting] (S-grade)

"These attributes... are unreasonable."

Su Chen was slightly surprised.

The upper limit for the Gold-Eating Rat race was usually only Dark Gold-grade, yet this one had reached legendary-grade, and its attributes were even nearly catching up to the Spider Empress from just now.

He carefully scanned the talent description:

[Gold-Eating] could enhance attributes by devouring metal equipment, which was a low-end version of Devouring Evolution; while that S-grade [Treasure Hunting] was the truly heaven-defying divine skill—it could accurately perceive heavenly treasures, top-tier equipment, and materials within the vicinity.

No wonder this beast could grow to this size in this dangerous God-Forsaken Land; it was entirely relying on its "radar" talent to pick up scraps and eat everywhere!

"Hehe..."

Su Chen licked his lips, his eyes full of greed.

If he could get his hands on this [Treasure Hunting] talent, wouldn't this vast God-Forsaken Land become an undefended open-air gold mine in his eyes?
