Natural God's Gift

#243 - Select

Si Ye actually wanted the Earth God Milk, as it was the cheapest and easiest to obtain, with good prospects for future development. However, after thinking about it, it cautiously said, "Lord Ginkgo, you said earlier that the annual output of Earth God Milk is only 8-12 drops. If everyone chooses Earth God Milk, will there be enough to go around?"

A spider has a free quota of 5 million Origin Stones. Each spider can receive at least 50 drops of Earth God Milk. The three spiders together would need 150 drops, which is about 15 to 20 years of production.

It also plans to advance one instar per year, reaching the Mountain Master level within ten years. Wait for 20 years? Should it wait until it reaches the Mountain Master level before using it?

Lord Ginkgo also thought carefully, "Currently, Black Trigram and the others are advanced warriors of the sixth or seventh instar, and they are steadily evolving at a rate of two instars per year. They should be able to advance to the Mountain Master level within ten years."

"We have previously stored sixty to seventy drops of Earth God Milk, and the future production quantity can be increased somewhat. It is estimated that we can collect enough for them to use within ten years, and then it will be your turn."

Si Ye: "—"

Hearing Lord Ginkgo say this, it decisively gave up on the Earth God Milk. Waiting for ten years, and then at least another five years for it to get its turn? With so much time, wouldn't it be better to choose other God-given items to increase its talent potential?

Si Ye said, "Then I'll choose the Deep Sea Heavy Water!"

"Deep Sea Heavy Water is 1.17 million Origin Stones per liter. 5 million Origin Stones can buy 4.3 liters. Si Ye, are you sure?"

"Wait, let me think again." Hearing Lord Ginkgo say this, Si Ye's gaze swept over the many God-given items.

Although the effects and talent attributes of these God-given items are not the same, in general, they are not much different from God-grade God-given seeds. Both can bestow talents or abilities.

Under the blessing of the Natural True God, the advantage of God-grade God-given seeds is that they can continuously produce God-grade fruits, which is something that God-given items cannot compare to.

However, God-given items are not without their advantages. The advantage of God-given items lies in their long lifespan. Some God-given items will not lose their original energy properties even after thousands of years in the Origin Energy Star Realm.

This is something that God-grade fruits cannot compare to. If God-grade fruits are not stored properly, they can lose their original energy properties within a few years.

Another point is that God-grade fruits are a whole entity and need to be eaten entirely to be effective. With God-given items, it doesn't matter if you eat a little more or a little less, only the probability of birthing a talent is different.

God-grade God-given items are scarce, and God-given items are even scarcer, and they are not sustainable. Even underground caves like the kingdom's, which can continuously produce Earth God Milk, produce far less than God-grade God-given items. Therefore, in every Origin Energy cycle, God-grade fruits are still the mainstream treasures.

After thinking about it, Si Ye suddenly had some different ideas.

It asked, "Lord Ginkgo, can I choose a little of each?"

Lord Ginkgo looked strange, "A little of each?"

"Yes," Si Ye said as a matter of course, "I only have Wood-type talent potential now. If I eat a little Earth God Milk, a little Lightning Plasma, and a little Deep Sea Heavy Water, wouldn't I have four or five kinds of talent potential?"

Lord Ginkgo frowned with its eight eyes and said earnestly, "Si Ye, eating God-given items or God-grade fruits has a certain probability of birthing a talent.

The more you eat, the greater the probability of awakening a talent. If you spread it out, the probability of awakening a talent will decrease instead.

Our insect warriors all specialize in growing and developing one type of talent. Don't bite off more than you can chew!"

God-given items are named after the gods and inherently possess divine properties. Just eating a little can give you talent potential.

Just having talent potential does not mean you can successfully awaken it. The more God-given items you eat, the greater the probability of awakening a talent, but there is no difference in other aspects.

For example, it's like standing in front of a turntable with a hundred spaces. Every time you evolve, you can spin the pointer once. As long as the pointer points to the selected space, you can awaken the talent you want.

You want to awaken Earth-type talent at this moment, but there is no space representing Earth-type talent in the turntable. At this time, even if you spin the pointer again, this option will not appear.

At this time, if you eat a portion of Earth-type God-given item, a space for Earth-type talent awakening will appear in the space.

But compared to the entire hundred-space turntable, the probability of the pointer pointing to the space representing Earth-type talent is only 1%.

Eating more Earth-type God-given items means there are more spaces representing Earth-type talent, and the probability of the pointer selecting talent awakening is also greater.

If you only eat a little of each item, then you only have preliminary talent potential, and the possibility of awakening a talent is very small.

Si Ye stretched out its eight limbs, "Lord Ginkgo, this is what I'm thinking. I want to birth several kinds of talent potential before advancing to the Mountain Master level, and eat more other kinds of God-given Origin Energy food.

In the future, after I advance to the Mountain Master level, I will use the ability of the God-grade Wish Fruit to produce God-grade fruits with various elemental talents, eating one type per instar, and strive to awaken ten elemental talents before reaching the Lord level."

Hearing Si Ye's plan, Lord Ginkgo was a little surprised. It didn't expect that the little spider from back then could now plan its spider life in an orderly manner.

Moreover, when Lord Ginkgo heard its planning method, it actually felt that it was somewhat feasible.

Lord Ginkgo said, "If it were other Flame Spider warriors, I would definitely stop them and let them focus on growing and developing one type of talent."

"But you are different. You have the God-grade Lucky Clover God-given seed as a backing, and you have enough trial and error costs. Even if you fail to awaken other talents, you can still awaken them in the future.

Then I will take the liberty of making a decision and give you the opportunity to choose multiple God-given items, but we have agreed that the 5 million free quota given by the kingdom will not change."

"Understood." Seeing that Lord Ginkgo was persuaded by itself and agreed to its request, Si Ye was also very happy.

After Si Ye discussed with Lord Ginkgo, it began to calculate which God-given items to choose.

If it only needs a little of each, then Si Ye's first choice is naturally Earth God Milk.

Si Ye: "Lord Ginkgo, can three drops of Earth God Milk be spared from Black Trigram and the others' claws for me to eat during the advanced warrior stage?"

Lord Ginkgo: "Three drops are no problem. Just spare one drop from each of Black Trigram and the others' claws next year."

Si Ye: "Then I want three drops of Earth God Milk."

"Okay," the Ginkgo Lord recorded, to be compiled later.

Fourleaf: "A drop of God-given Lightning Paste is 400,000 Origin Stones, right? I want two drops."

"The metal-type God-given Silver Essence is priced at 700,000 Origin Stones per piece. One piece can increase the probability of metal-type talent awakening by 5%. This price is quite affordable. I'll take one of these too."

"Exchange the remaining free quota for Deepsea Heavy Water!"

The remaining wind and fire elements are all in one piece and cannot be divided. It currently doesn't have the authority or Origin Stones to purchase them, so it won't bother thinking about it.

Currently, it has the wood-type talent that it will inevitably awaken, coupled with the potential for earth, water, lightning, and metal-type talents.

Having five elemental talent potentials is enough for it to consume different God-given Origin Power foods during the advanced stage.

It strives to awaken a water-type talent in addition to its inherent wood-type talent after being promoted to Mountain Lord level, and that will satisfy it.

Ginkgo Lord began calculating: "Three drops of Earth God Milk, 300,000 Origin Stones; one piece of God-given Silver Essence, 700,000 Origin Stones; two drops of Lightning Paste, 800,000 Origin Stones, totaling 1,800,000 Origin Stones. The remaining 3,200,000 Origin Stones can be exchanged for 2.73 liters of Deepsea Heavy Water."

"Fourleaf, currently the Earth God Milk has already been claimed by Black Trilateral and the others, and there isn't much left. Do you want the Lightning Paste or the Deepsea Heavy Water first?"

Fourleaf: "I'll take the Deepsea Heavy Water first!"

Since it plans to awaken the water-type talent at the Mountain Lord level, it's better to consume it sooner rather than later.

"Alright," Ginkgo Lord took out an instrument with gradations, then opened the God-restricted artifact storing the Deepsea Heavy Water, and inserted a peculiar leather tube into the jade bottle containing the Deepsea Heavy Water, continuously drawing out the Deepsea Heavy Water until it had drawn out the desired amount, then it closed the God-restricted artifact again.

It poured the drawn Deepsea Heavy Water into a spare metal can, tightened the lid, sealed the opening with God-given honey, and handed it to Fourleaf.

"2.73 liters of Deepsea Heavy Water has been packed. This is very heavy, so be careful."

"Very heavy? How heavy?" Hearing Ginkgo Lord say this, Fourleaf prepared itself mentally and extended four spider legs to receive it, but the moment it took the metal can, it almost dropped it.

There are many of these metal cans in the kingdom, and Fourleaf is very familiar with them. The outside of the can is made of metal, with a spider silk bag that isolates Origin Power in the center, and another layer of metal inside. The weight is not heavy, so it picking it up so heavily is obviously not due to the metal can itself.

Is it because of this Deepsea Heavy Water?

Ginkgo Lord said: "Deepsea Heavy Water is stagnant water located in the deepest part of the Deepsea. After years of compression and sedimentation, its weight far exceeds that of ordinary seawater. One liter of Deepsea Heavy Water weighs one hundred kilograms."

Fourleaf caught the metal can and carefully packed it into a spider silk bag and placed it on its carapace. It felt a powerful force pressing down on its back, and it muttered, "No wonder it's called Heavy Water, it really is heavy."

Ginkgo Lord continued, "God-given water is different from God-grade fruits. It can be consumed little by little and will not be wasted, but even if you consume it little by little now that you are only at the advanced warrior stage, you still need to allow time for digestion."

It handed Fourleaf another glass instrument that could extract Deepsea Heavy Water: "This is an instrument that can extract God-given items. Each time, extract 100 milliliters to consume, and consume it once every three days. After you have finished consuming this Deepsea Heavy Water, you can evolve one instar. Come back to me then to claim the Lightning Paste and Silver Essence."

Fourleaf took the instrument: "Ginkgo Lord, I'll remember it."

Ginkgo Lord: "Now that you have the items, leave the secret vault!"

It led Fourleaf back to the service hall and then let Fourleaf leave on its own.

Fourleaf, carrying hundreds of kilograms of Deepsea Heavy Water, slowly moved its body back to the nest chamber in the initial territory.

Noticing that Fourleaf's condition was a little different, Clover swayed its branches and asked in puzzlement: "Fourleaf,

Why are you walking as if you can't move? What happened?"

"It's nothing," Fourleaf didn't tell Clover about the Deepsea Heavy Water, fearing that it would get up and insist on absorbing a little to try.

Although this is a God-given item like Dragon Scale Soil, its effects are different.

Deepsea Heavy Water has almost no effect on Clover, but Fourleaf can use it to increase its talent potential, so it naturally doesn't want to give it to Clover.

Back in its own nest chamber, it placed the metal can in the corner of the nest chamber. Angelica should have gone to see the Life Seed or the Shell Pond and hasn't returned yet.

It ran to the nest chamber entrance and stuck up the retreat flag, not allowing other insects to disturb it.

Then it returned to the nest chamber, unscrewed the metal can, and used the instrument to extract one hundred milliliters of Deepsea Heavy Water and dripped it into its mouth.

As soon as it entered its mouth, it felt that the water was really heavy. Even though it was only 100 milliliters, it weighed 10 kilograms. When the water entered its mouth, it felt like it had swallowed a cold ice cube, and then it let the cold stream flow from its mouthparts straight to its abdomen, making it shiver involuntarily.

Fourleaf was slightly startled: "Ginkgo Lord didn't say that this Deepsea Heavy Water is so cold in addition to being heavy!"

However, it quickly stopped caring about whether it was cold or not. It silently lay in the nest chamber, allowing the Origin Power in the Deepsea Heavy Water to slowly digest and change its body's talents.

Usually, after insect warriors consume God-grade fruits, the massive Origin Power fills their bodies, leading to instar evolution,

But the amount of God-given items consumed by Fourleaf was too small and did not meet the conditions for instar evolution.

In the following time, it didn't go anywhere and consumed one hundred milliliters of Deepsea Heavy Water every two days, while also consuming other God-given Origin Power foods, allowing itself to grow imperceptibly.

Occasionally, it would also experiment with consuming a little water-type Origin Power food. It quickly discovered that it could digest the Origin Power in water-type Origin Power food.

Normally, only Origin Flame Spiders with wood-type talent potential cannot digest water-type Origin Power. Even if water-type Origin Power doesn't cause much damage to wood-type Flame Spiders, they can only use wood-type Origin Power to wear it down or excrete it after eating it.

Fourleaf being able to digest the Origin Power in water-type Origin Power food means that it already has water-type talent potential. Next, it can consume dual water and wood-type Origin Power food, greatly increasing the types of Origin Power food on its menu.

Summer passed and autumn came again. Fourleaf stayed in the nest chamber for two or three months, and the time finally came to the golden autumn of October, the harvest season for fruits all over the mountains.

This year, its Life Seed produced a large number, and the God-given Sea Dates and God-given Mangrove seeds also needed to be re-priced. It didn't trust Artemisia and was worried that it wouldn't handle it well, so it finally left the nest chamber where it had stayed for two or three months to deal with various matters with Artemisia and the others.
