Chapter 30: Talent – Multitasking

[Mercenary Certification: Additional 20% class bonus (non-tradeable).]

[Special Treasure Chest: Upon opening, you will receive an item no lower than Lower Mystic Tier.]

[Class Advancement Book (Legendary): After use, you can randomly select three legendary classes with a minimum of 80% compatibility (Legendary class: A class that exists only in legends.)]

[Golden Treasure Chest: Upon opening, you will receive a mysterious treasure.]

“Awesome!”

Looking at the description of the rewards, Wang Shuo felt his heart beat vigorously.

There was not much to say about the Special Treasure Chest. After all, he had obtained a lower mystic-tier Green Dragon Staff and an intermediate mystic-tier Mystic Turtle Armor one after another.

It could be said that he could obtain a perfect evaluation in the Newcomer’s Trial primarily thanks to these two pieces of equipment.

If not for the Green Dragon Staff, he might have already died in the cat demon forest of the second trial.

There was even less of a need to mention the Mystic Turtle Armor. The reason he could pass the third trial, 90% of the credit went to this piece of equipment.

As for the Golden Treasure Chest, although he didn’t know what he could find inside, just the prefix ‘gold’ made it worth looking forward to.

But compared to the treasure chests, what excited Wang Shuo the most were the other two rewards.

As a young man who had often read online novels, how could he have not heard of the term ‘hidden class’?

And this ‘legendary class’ was obviously a stereotypical template of ‘hidden class’.

What was even more terrifying was that with the five Mercenary Certifications, his legendary class bonus would increase by 100%.

If other people’s class advancement was akin to an evolution from crawling to walking, then Wang Shuo’s was akin to sprouting wings and soaring off.

“Woohoo.”

Wang Shuo shouted uncontrollably. He hugged Garuru and stroked him for a good ten seconds before feeling calmer.

He retracted his hand reluctantly. Putting everything else aside, this big dog really felt good when he stroked it.

But he was so happy that he didn’t even notice that Garuru, who was lying limply on the ground, had already rolled his eyes and drooled, looking like he was on the verge of dying.

Looking at the high platform behind the stone door, Wang Shuo thought for a moment and decided to open the treasure chests first.

He had no idea what the outside world was like, so to be safe, he should first convert his gains into strength.

[You opened Demon Warlock Heather Lynn’s Projection Treasure Chest…]

It was no different from the previous ones. First, there were the demon warlock’s three exclusive set pieces: robe, staff, and boots.

They were also upper yellow tier, but Wang Shuo wasn’t interested in them.

But his eyes lit up at the last option.

[Molina’s Magic Clock]: With it, you can control time.

Description: Controlling time, no problem… It’s up to you.

As his palm sank, a palm-sized octagonal crystal clock appeared.

It looked no different from an ordinary clock from Earth. The symbols were also the familiar Arabic numerals.

Needless to say, it was definitely the system’s divine assistance.

The familiar ticking sound made him feel as if he had traveled back to a lifetime ago.

“It finally feels a bit civilized.”

After stuffing the alarm back into his inventory, Wang Shuo rubbed his hands and opened the Special Treasure Chest.

[The player is undergoing a random draw. [Selection Option] automatically activated.]

[Here are the options…]

It was the familiar twelve options. Nine were lower mystic tier, two were middle mystic tier, and one was upper mystic tier.

After removing the eight materials and the uninteresting options, Wang Shuo began scrutinizing the rest.

[Three Severs Sword Technique]

Grade: Lower Mystic Tier

Description: One body, two souls, Three Sever Technique. With the Three Sever Technique, you are unrivaled beneath the heavens!

“Huh, how boastful!”

Wang Shuo couldn’t help scoffing, but he dared not hold any contempt in his heart.

From the previous few classes he faced, it was apparent that equipment and skills at the mystic tier and above were far beyond the norm.

He had already experienced the power of the Primordial Chaos Skill.

Even though the Three Severs Sword Technique was most likely not as powerful as described, it was definitely not to be underestimated.

“It’s a pity that I already have the Green Dragon Staff…”

Wang Shuo shook his head and continued reading.

[Great Revitalizing Pill]

Grade: Mystic Tier

Description: 1. Consuming before class advancement increases attributes by 0.5. (Only one per person.) 2. Consuming after class advancement allows the recovery of injuries and internal energy. (Consumption of a second pill within seven days is ineffective.)

[Heavenly Eagle Divine Crossbow]

Grade: Middle Mystic Tier

Description: Crafted from a golden-winged heavenly eagle. Each arrow fires off like a meteor and destroys the skies. Equipped with three reusable profound iron arrows.

“This… could a player have made it?”

Wang Shuo was so befuddled by the description that his scalp tingled. He felt that this description wasn’t something that an average person could come up with.

He looked at the last option speechlessly.

[Talent: Multitasking]

Grade: Upper Mystic Tier

Description: Multitasking

“Talent?”

From the description, Wang Shuo could roughly tell the effect of the skill. But now, he wanted to know what level this Multitasking talent could achieve.

As far as he knew, ordinary people could also multitask after training.

But at this level, you could only do very simple and basic actions at the same time. Furthermore, you had to be very familiar with the actions. If they were slightly more complicated, you would make mistakes.

“But it’s upper mystic tier… Why don’t I take a gamble!”

Wang Shuo hesitated for a moment before gritting his teeth and making his decision.

[You receive Talent: Multitasking.]

The next second, Wang Shuo suddenly felt a cooling sensation in his brain, and his consciousness split into two.

This feeling was bizarre, as if he had suddenly become two people.

He remembered that in a martial arts novel he read in the past, there was a character who practiced a martial art called the ‘Technique of Ambidexterity’. He could draw a square with his left hand and a circle with his right hand.

But compared to Multitasking, it was simply too weak.

Much less drawing a square and a circle, he could even build a Lego spaceship with each hand simultaneously.

“Damn, this gamble paid off big this time!”

In an instant, Wang Shuo thought of the most significant use of this ability.

When he was cultivating the Primordial Chaos Skill, he discovered that although this cultivation technique was very powerful, it was too time-consuming.

It was fine in the novice space since he could cultivate in peace without anyone disturbing him.

But he didn’t know what the situation outside was like. Suppose he was in a dangerous situation and didn’t have time to cultivate, what would happen to the remaining six stages of the technique?

It was different now.

He tried it just now, and he could move about normally while cultivating.

Not only this, but Multitasking also had a combat potential that could not be underestimated.

“It seems that talents are also good things. I must prioritize getting them in the future.”

Following that was the final Golden Treasure Chest.

[The player is undergoing a random draw. [Selection Option] automatically activated.]

A golden and exquisite Treasure Chest suddenly jumped out, and with a loud creak, a prize wheel appeared.

There were six sections on the wheel, with the labels: Cultivation Techniques, Skills, Equipment, Talents, Bloodlines, and Special.

In the middle was a golden metal pointing spinning crazily.

Just as Wang Shuo was considering which option to choose, he suddenly heard an unfamiliar notification.

[Here are… Permission conflict…]

At this moment, the pointer gradually slowed down and finally stopped at the bloodline section.

[Permissions restored. Here are the options…]
