...

Lines of information flashed before his eyes.

He didn't know how much time had passed, but the green light above Ye Ze's head gradually faded...

His gaze swept around. He didn't know when he had been teleported out. Only a few Druid examiners were left on the grass, and the other two teams of examinees had already departed.

"You have accepted the inheritance of the Natural Envoy," Druid Elder Sam said to Ye Ze, his eyes sparkling with brilliance.

"Yes," Ye Ze nodded, checking his profession information.

【Name】: Ye Ze

【Profession】: Natural Chef

...

Indeed, the words Natural System had been added before his profession.

Not only that, but he also gained three professional talents and three professional skills.

"Natural Grace! Planting Technique! Animal Taming!"

Ye Ze was immersed in joy.

"And Spirit growth +8, even compensating 120 Spirit attributes!"

His only weakness was now also filled!

"This Natural Envoy inheritance points directly to the peak of the Saintly Position Realm. You only need to accumulate enough experience to reach the Saintly Position Realm," Druid Elder Sam continued.

In the ordinary profession system, advancing to the second and third transfers requires comprehending advanced talents and skills. However, professional inheritances do not require this; as long as your level is sufficient, advanced talents and skills will naturally awaken.

"Thank you, examiners, for allowing me to enter the trial secret realm. Only then did I obtain the Natural Envoy inheritance," Ye Ze bowed to the Druid examiners.

"No need to thank us. Allowing you examinees to enter the trial secret realm was a condition we agreed to with the Ministry of Education in the first place. And your ability to obtain a Saintly Position inheritance is also your own."

Druid Elder Sam stroked his beard. He suddenly said, "I heard from Elmond that the route you chose is one of the six golden routes - Elemental Inheritance. Then your second stage route map should be the Elemental Plains."

"Yes," Ye Ze nodded.

"The Elemental Plains are vast and boundless," Druid Elder Sam said with emotion. "Originally, the Elemental Plains were a mountain range and grassland, but now, they have become a chaotic land where various elements run rampant."

A hint of recollection appeared in Druid Elder Sam's eyes. "That war was too tragic. All the participating races and nations suffered heavy losses."

He sighed, his gaze falling on Ye Ze. "Examinee from Dragon Country, I want to entrust you with a task."

Ye Ze lowered his head to look at his communication watch.

"It's not an assessment task," Druid Elder Sam shook his head. "It's our private commission."

"Of course, if you need the system to issue it for you to accept the task, we can also issue the task to you as examiners."

"Please tell me, and I will consider whether to accept it," Ye Ze replied.

"After we Druids die, our souls enter the Soul Secret Realm, awaiting the call of the God of Nature. However, if our bones are lost outside, our souls cannot enter the Soul Secret Realm and remain trapped within the bones."

After a pause, Druid Elder Sam continued, "So I hope you can search for the bones of Druids in the Elemental Plains and ferry their souls back to the Soul Secret Realm."

Ye Ze pondered for a moment and asked, "I can accept this commission, but the question is, how do I find the bones and how do I ferry their souls back?"

"You don't need to worry about that."

Druid Elder Sam took out a necklace and handed it to Ye Ze. "This is a necklace blessed by the Holy Tree. It can directly ferry souls to the Soul Secret Realm."

"At the same time, if there are Druid bones nearby, the necklace will automatically flash with light. The closer you are to the bones, the brighter the light."

Ye Ze took the necklace and looked at it with his Eye of Insight.

【soul ferry necklace】

Quality: Third-tier secret treasure

Secret Treasure Effect One: 【Soul Ferry】: Ferries the souls of Druids to the Soul Secret Realm.

Secret Treasure Effect Two: 【Soul Defense】: Resists a mental attack below 20000 points of mental damage. (Refreshes every 24 hours)

"Soul Defense!"

Ye Ze's eyes lit up.

In addition to ferrying souls, this necklace also has the effect of defending against mental attacks.

He quickly put away the soul ferry necklace and promised Druid Elder Sam, "I will do my best to find more bones and ferry their souls to the Soul Secret Realm."

Druid Elder Sam nodded, and then he tapped the communication watch on his hand.

【Obtained Task: Souls Cannot Rest in Peace】

【Task Description: In the Elemental Plains, many Druid bones have been lost here. You need to find their bones and ferry their souls to the Soul Secret Realm. For each soul you ferry, you will receive 1000 points and 1000 Druid Town reputation.】

"Druids never mistreat their friends, in addition to these assessment rewards. The souls you ferry will also grant you blessings," Druid Elder Sam said solemnly and seriously.

After speaking, Druid Elder Sam bowed to Ye Ze. "The Holy Tree will protect you and ensure everything goes smoothly on this journey."

...

【Hint: Your first stage main and side tasks have all been completed. Do you want to start the second stage route?】

"Start."

【Hint: For your safety, you need to replenish teleportation energy before starting the second stage route.】

【Hint: When you encounter irresistible danger, the system will automatically trigger teleportation and send you back to the starting point.】

"A safety feature?"

A look of understanding appeared on Ye Ze's face.

He clicked on the hint and chose to replenish teleportation energy.

【Consuming 10000 points, teleportation energy replenished!】

"10000 points?"

Ye Ze was stunned.

Do I have that many points?

After the auction, I seemed to only have a little over 6000 points...

With confusion, Ye Ze opened his personal information.

【Points】: 58320

Not only did he have 10000, but he also had 58320 points.

"It seems the monsters killed in the trial secret realm were also counted in the points," Ye Ze quickly figured it out.

Whoosh—

Ye Ze transformed into a falcon, stirring up a gust of wind, and instantly soared into the sky...

"Speaking of which, with my current ability to transform into a falcon, I can completely skip class and fly directly over the Elemental Plains."

Ye Ze laughed. "Unfortunately, I still have tasks to do."

He currently had two tasks:

Second Stage Main Task: 【Collect the Heart Cores of Five Leader-level Elemental Monsters】

Druid Elder's Commission Task: 【Souls Cannot Rest in Peace】

Next was the journey of the second stage route.

"Start the second stage route."

【Hint: The second stage route has begun. The theme of this stage route is 'Challenge'!】
