Chapter 2 — Slaughter in Seconds! Shocking the Crowd!With a thought, Qin Feng focused on the talent section, and an explanatory line automatically appeared.
[Infinite Extraction: Can launch extraction on any target, resulting in unexpected effects.]
This explanation was somewhat vague. It seemed that he needed to figure it out for himself to know the specific effects.
Speaking of which, he wondered what talents were awakened by others.
With that in mind, he quickly switched to the chat channel, where it was bustling with excitement.
“Haha!! I awakened it! My talent has awakened! I have an E-level talent – Strength Enhancement. When using the talent, my strength doubles.”
“Haha! I have Speed Enhancement. When using the talent, my speed doubles!”
“Mine is pretty good too! I have Constitution Enhancement. When using the talent, my defense doubles.”
“What the hell! Mine is a D-level talent – Flame Manipulation!”
“Wow! I can manipulate ice! I’m no longer an ordinary person, I’m a superhero! Haha!”
“Haha! Interesting! This world is so interesting!”
“Why is my talent Enhanced Sense of Smell? It only increases my olfactory sensitivity tenfold. Damn it! It’s the worst F-level talent!”
“Mine is Visual Enhancement, also the worst F-level. Sob!”
At that moment, everyone had awakened their talent abilities.
Some were happy, some were worried.
Qin Feng quietly screened through, wanting to see if anyone had awakened talents at the S-level or above.
Just then, another announcement came from the heavens.
[Announcement: Talent awakening in this novice village is complete.]
[Awakened F-level talents: 787 individuals]
[Awakened E-level talents: 194 individuals]
[Awakened D-level talents: 17 individuals]
[Awakened C-level or above talents: 2 individuals]
Huh!
Looking at this situation, most people had awakened F-level and E-level talents. Sᴇaʀch* Thᴇ ɴøᴠel Fɪre.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.
Less than two percent had awakened D-level talents.
That meant his SSS-level talent was extremely rare.
Qin Feng’s eyes light up.
By the way, there were two individuals who had awakened talents at C-level or above, and one of them was him.
So, who was the other person?
With that in mind, Qin Feng looked back at the chat area.
“Oh my god! Only 17 out of 1,000 people have awakened D-level talents. How many people out of billions worldwide can have SSS-level talents?”
“Let’s not even talk about SSS-level talents. Even for S-level talents, there are only a few out of billions of people.”
“I even doubt that out of billions of people worldwide, no one can awaken an SSS-level talent.”
“Ah! It seems incredibly difficult to obtain good talent!”
“Yes! Those who can awaken D-level talents are already strong, and those with C-level talents are even more remarkable.”
“By the way! Two people in our village have awakened C-level talents. Who are they?”
“Two C-level bosses, come out and make an appearance!”
“Yeah! Two bosses, come out so we can worship you!”
At that moment, a young man named Liu Xuan’s avatar flickered.
Liu Xuan: “Everyone, I have awakened a C-level talent – Magnetic Manipulation!”
“Wow! Magnetic Manipulation! Sounds awesome!”
“Yeah! Will it be as cool as Magneto?”
“Liu Xuan, please take me under your wing! I’ll follow you from now on!”
“Liu Xuan, big brother, I want to join you too!”
At that moment, the chat channel got crazy, with everyone flatteringly praising Liu Xuan.
“By the way, everyone, there are two individuals with C-level or above talents. Who is the other person?”
“Other boss, please come out and make an appearance!”
Everyone was eagerly anticipating.
Upon seeing this, Qin Feng silently exited the chat channel.
His awakened talent was too exaggerated, and he didn’t dare to reveal it easily.
Who knows if someone in this blood-soaked world would feel jealous and harm him?
More importantly, his combat power was only 1 star, making him extremely weak and lacking self-defense capabilities.
His SSS-level talent ability was his biggest trump card and reliance. He couldn’t expose it easily.
Moreover, he still hasn’t figured out the exact purpose of Infinite Extraction.
Just then, the voice of the heavens resonated once again.
[Announcement: From this moment on, you can leave the wooden house and enter the novice village. In ten seconds, the novice assessment will begin.]
[Assessment Content: All participants must reach level 10 within seven days. Those who fail to meet the standard will be eliminated on the spot. Those who perform well will receive generous rewards.]
[Leveling Method: Hunt various savage beasts, demons, and monsters to obtain energy for leveling up.]
As the prompt ended, a rusty short sword descended from the sky along a beam of light. Qin Feng caught it effortlessly.
[Novice Short Sword: Attack +2, a rusty short sword, a necessary item for every novice, a tier 0 equipment.]
[Attack power corresponds to the strength index. 1 point of strength can increase 1 point of attack.]
Qin Feng gripped the handle of the sword and casually waved it a few times, feeling that it was quite handy.
Just then, he had a thought and placed his hand on the sword, activating his own talent ability – Infinite Extraction!
A burst of white light flashed!
The rust on the blade visibly disappeared at a rapid pace, turning into a glimmering and brand-new sword.
Qin Feng flipped his hand, and the palm was covered in rust and debris.
[Infinite Extraction successful! You have extracted the rust and debris from the Novice Short Sword, and it has been upgraded to a Fine Steel Blade.]
[Fine Steel Sword: Attack +5, a tier 1 item.]
So Infinite Extraction could be used like this.
“Interesting!”
Qin Feng was delighted.
In just a moment, his Novice Short Sword had gone from tier 0 to tier 1, and the attack power had increased to 5 points.
Then, he had another idea as he placed his hand on the blade, continuing the extraction …
[Infinite Extraction failed! The target of extraction has reached it’s capacity due to it’s poor quality.]
Just as expected!
Qin Feng waved the steel blade and was already satisfied.
At least from the beginning, his weapon was better than everyone else’s.
At that moment, a noise came from outside the wooden house.
He quickly approached and pushed open the wooden door, seeing rows of small wooden houses in his sight.
At that time, one person came out of each wooden house.
There were men and women, young and old, all curiously looking around …
Qin Feng also scanned the surroundings.
This was indeed the novice village. Besides the wooden houses, the other end of the village led to a square.
After everyone came out of their wooden houses, they gathered in small groups and headed towards the square. The discussions and murmurs filled the air.
“If we don’t reach level 10, we will be eliminated! The heavens are forcing us to go out and kill monsters!”
“Yeah! The novice assessment only lasts for seven days. We can’t waste time on this.”
“I’m so nervous!”
“I’m panicking too! Hey, bro, how about we team up?”
“Sure, why not!”
Qin Feng took a look and saw that all these people were holding rusty novice short swords. Remaining composed, he followed the crowd and headed towards the square of the novice village.
Upon reaching the square, Qin Feng noticed a light barrier at the other end of the square. That was the protective shield of the novice village.
Once they step out of the shield, they would enter a bloody world of slaughter.
At that moment, hundreds of people had gathered in the square, chattering away, but no one dared to step out of the protective shield.
Arriving in an unfamiliar place, everyone felt uneasy, and no one wanted to draw attention to themselves.
“Ah! I wonder what it’s like outside?”
“Yeah! We have no idea how strong the beasts out there are. It’s unsettling!”
At that moment, a loud noise resounded through the area.
Startled, everyone turned their heads in the direction of the sound.
Qin Feng was also taken aback and turned to look, only to see a muscular man shattering a boulder with a single punch.
Recognizing the appearance of the muscular man, he realized it was Wang Qiang, the one with the peak 1 star combat power.
“Wow! Such incredible strength!”
At that moment, everyone exclaimed in amazement.
“I recognize him! He’s Wang Qiang, the one with the peak 1 star combat power!”
“Wow! Is the peak 1 star combat power that impressive?”
“Wang Qiang, what’s your talent?”
Wang Qiang himself was also surprised and stared at the shattered stone in front of him. When he heard someone asking, he snapped out of his daze and smiled.
“I have a D-level talent—Power Rampage. When using the talent, my strength triples.”
Upon hearing this, everyone was astonished once again.
“Wow! A D-level talent! No wonder Wang Qiang has such incredible strength!”
“Tsk tsk! A D-level talent is impressive! I awakened an E-level talent, Power Enhancement, which only doubles my strength. It’s one level lower than Wang Qiang’s.”
“Having an E-level talent is already good. I have an F-level talent!”
“Ah! Most people awakened with F-level and E-level talents. Out of a hundred people, there are less than two with D-level talents.”
“I envy those who awakened with D-level talents!”
“I’m even more envious of those two who awakened with C-level talents!”
“Yeah! One is Liu Xuan, and I wonder who the other person with the C-level talent is. I really envy them!”
Among the crowd, Qin Feng listened and smiled without saying a word.
It seemed that these people misunderstood and thought he awakened with a C-level talent.
“Oh, and Wang Qiang’s combat power is already at peak of 1-star, and now he awakened with a D-level talent. He will definitely become stronger in the future!”
“Of course!”
The discussion continued, and the gazes directed at Wang Qiang became filled with awe.
Hearing the praises from everyone, Wang Qiang felt delighted and unconsciously became a bit arrogant. Looking around, he noticed that no one dared to leave the village, and a sense of pride welled up within him.
“Everyone, I will leave the village now and see how strong the beasts outside are. I’ll lead the way!”
As soon as he finished speaking, he swaggered out of the newbie village with the rusted newbie short sword in hand …
The crowd silently watched him.
Soon, Wang Qiang passed through the barrier and left the newbie village. However, it didn’t take long before a piercing and miserable scream echoed from outside the village.
[Announcement: Newbie Wang Qiang has been killed by a Level 1 ferocious beast, Bloodfang Rabbit!]
In the next second, everyone’s mind was filled with this announcement.
The entire crowd was utterly shocked!
