86: Qin Xuan's talent evolves, Chen Ergou leads the crowd to help
Under the 300% damage increase from Qin Xuan’s Asura Staff, a Level 40 BOSS could instantly kill a Level 60 Professional.
Only at this moment did people see a Goblin Assassin, shrouded in shadow, flash by with a dagger in hand.
“What is that thing?”
“Quickly attack, kill it! It’s a Goblin, a hidden BOSS attacking us.”
Shouts rang out, and a barrage of attacks flew, but the Goblin Assassin’s figure had already darted away, with streaks of blood splattering in the air.
Every time the Goblin Assassin struck, someone would fall. Finally, after a brief moment of terror, the Xiao Family gold-farming group suddenly awoke from their daze and began to counterattack.
Dozens of attacks rained down on the Goblin Assassin like a storm. Even if the Goblin Assassin was fast, its health rapidly decreased.
Ten-odd seconds later, its health bar was depleted, and the Goblin Assassin finally fell to the ground.
The smell of blood permeated the forest, and everyone gasped for air.
The battle just now, though brief, was extremely bizarre.
In less than a minute, nearly twenty people died.
“What was that thing? Why was there no experience reward for killing it?”
Suddenly, someone raised a question, and the members of the gold-farming group all showed confused expressions.
Just then, another change occurred.
Bang…
A scorching fireball instantly exploded within the crowd. Screams accompanied by the sound of burning flames caused everyone’s recently relaxed nerves to tighten once more.
Fortunately, after the Great Fusion, the flames from Professional skills would not cause environmental burning effects.
Otherwise, the entire Blue Star would have long been reduced to ashes.
Everyone looked in the direction the fireball appeared, and couldn’t help but gasp.
The body of the gold-farming group leader, who had been the first to die, had now risen from the ground.
The wound on his neck was so grotesque, and his eyes were dull and lifeless, yet the staff in his hand continuously spewed out skills.
He was originally the only Three-Rotation Professional, and now his damage had inexplicably increased several times over.
His attacks either instantly killed or severely wounded others.
The Professionals began to counterattack, but the revived leader felt no pain at all.
It seemed this body had transformed into a monster of this forest.
Soon, the second body revived, then the third, the fourth… a total of eight bodies successively turned into monsters.
Ten minutes later, blood stained the ground.
Over a hundred members of the Xiao Family’s gold-farming group all lay on the ground, no longer breathing.
A thin figure slowly appeared. He quickly began to loot the bodies, his eyes filled with fanaticism.
“You wanted to harm my Lin Laoda, you deserve to die.”
He spat lightly, then reached out to touch the body of the gold-farming group leader.
【Congratulations! You have obtained Talent Evolution Stone * 1】
【Novice Talent Evolution Stone】
【Category: Rare item obtained from a blind box】

Qin Xuan looked at the stone in his hand, his heart suddenly accelerating.
“Lin Laoda is already Second-Rotation, so he can’t use this. If my talent could evolve to A+ or S…”
【Detected that you meet the conditions to use the Talent Evolution Stone. Do you wish to use it?】
Qin Xuan swallowed, and said with a slight tremble, “Use.”
【Evolution Stone has been used. Beginning to extract evolution strength.】
【Evolving…】
Qin Xuan’s Adam’s apple bobbed again, his eyes fixed intently on the system panel before him.
Time passed unusually slowly at this moment.
1 second…
Two seconds…
Qin Xuan’s eyes suddenly widened.
【Congratulations! You have successfully evolved your A-rank talent into the SS-rank talent, Calamity Believer.】
“No, this is wrong, wrong! I’m not a Calamity Believer, I’m a Divine God Believer…”
…
The morning sun was warm and not glaring.
Outside the Baishan Base City Teleportation Temple.
At this moment, a large number of security officers in uniform were looking ahead with some nervousness.
A dense crowd had gathered there, at a glance, no less than ten to twenty thousand people.
“Brothers, I can go by myself. You guys hurry up and level up.”
A tall, burly young man shouted at the dense mass of figures in front of him.
His name is Chen Aotian, nicknamed Dog Brother.
At just eighteen years old, he had been to the juvenile detention center nineteen times.
He was also one of the Chelsea youths Lin Ling had sponsored for three years.
But Lin Ling didn’t know that all the money he gave Chen Aotian was distributed by this kid to the orphans of revolutionary martyrs who were living in hardship.
Ten years ago, the Dragon Nation’s Heavenly Lake Secret Realm opened. The announcement mentioned that there was a passage to the Divine Realm within this dungeon, and the first clear would grant permanent access to this passage.
America-Alliance suddenly deployed five thousand Professionals, surrounding Heavenly Lake, attempting to seize the first clear reward and take the Divine Realm passage.
Chen Jiangpan, the commander of the Dragon Nest Baishan Garrison Brigade, led ten thousand Dragon Nest Warriors to Heavenly Lake in Baishan immediately and engaged in a desperate battle with America-Alliance.
In that battle, three thousand fought against five thousand, and the three thousand Dragon Nest Warriors managed to kill forty-five thousand of the five thousand America-Alliance coalition forces.
However, the Baishan Brigade suffered twenty-seven thousand casualties, and Commander Chen Jiangpan was even captured by a Seven-Rotation Strong from the Never-setting Empire.
Two of the three Vice Hall Masters of the War God Hall arrived, and although they repelled America-Alliance’s high-ranking Professionals, they failed to rescue Chen Jiangpan.
Not long after, America-Alliance released news that Chen Jiangpan, the commander of the Dragon Nation’s Dragon Nest Baishan Brigade, had defected to the Never-setting Empire.
Chen Aotian also transformed from a child of a high-ranking official to the child of a traitor.
Especially the children of the fallen Dragon Nest Warriors harbored deep hatred for Chen Aotian.
These people often sought trouble with Chen Aotian, frequently leading to a good beating.
Facing these people, Chen Aotian never fought back, but once these orphans of martyrs were bullied, he would jump out like a mad dog and fight those people desperately.
Because Chen Aotian always refused to believe that his father would betray the Dragon Nation.
In his view, his father must have had unspeakable difficulties, and the most frequent words his father said to him were to protect those older and younger brothers when he grew up.
And he had always fulfilled his promise to his father.
Years passed, and at first, no one appreciated it. Some children even called him a lunatic, a mad dog.
But as time went on, the curses against him grew fewer and fewer, and this son of a traitor quietly became the leader of this large group of martyr orphans.
“Dog Brother, how can this be? Look at what those people in the public chat are saying, is that human talk? If they dare to steal Lin Laoda’s equipment, we’ll fight them to the death!”
“Dog Brother, if it weren’t for Lin Laoda’s continuous assistance these past few years, my mother definitely wouldn’t have survived that winter last year.”
“Who says it isn’t so? Although Lin Laoda didn’t directly help me, if it weren’t for his money, my sister’s leg injury wouldn’t have been cured.”
“Dog Brother, let the brothers go with you. We won’t cause trouble, we’ll just give Lin Laoda some face.”
Shouts continuously came from the vast crowd.
All these people were around Level 10, and some were even just life Professionals.
But at this moment, there was light in everyone’s eyes. Since ancient times, the people of Baishan have been righteous.
If others helped them, they would certainly reciprocate if they had the ability.
Chen Aotian’s eyes were slightly red, and he shouted loudly, “Brothers, you’re all great! Let’s go then, and see which bastard dares to touch my Brother Lin?!”
As his voice fell, the mighty procession marched neatly towards the Teleportation Temple.
And this scene was coincidentally captured by an America-Alliance spy satellite.
A certain America-Alliance conference room instantly became tense.
“Large-scale troop movements have been detected in Baishan, Dragon Nation.”
“Could it be that the Dragon Nation has found a way to clear the Baishan dungeon?”
“Impossible, the Baishan dungeon is simply not something that can be done by human power. No matter how many people go into that dungeon, it’s impossible to kill all the monsters within the allotted time!”
“Closely monitor the Dragon Nation’s public chat. We can consider actively returning some Dragon Nation cultural relics. If they can truly clear it, we must get our hands on the strategy!”
