Void Overlord: Ten Thousand Races Struggle For Hegemony

After a while, Ye Fei's mood gradually calmed down.

"It seems that the plan needs to be advanced. I'll go buy a vassal now."

The plan couldn't keep up with the changes, and the additional Origin Points made Ye Fei intend to speed up the progress of the plan.

Opening the store, he searched for vassals. He had probably browsed through them before. A Rank One initial stage vassal with no talents cost 1 Origin Point. The stronger the strength or the higher the talent, the more expensive it was.

Both strength and talent could be improved with Origin Points, but the consumption of Origin Points was huge. Personal talents, unlike Territory Talents, had limits. Low-level talents could only be upgraded to Rank Two, middle-level to Rank Four, high-level to Rank Six. Beyond Rank Six, it was a completely different field.

Only legendary talents could reach Rank Seven. Above that were semi-divine level Rank Eight and divine level Rank Nine. As for Rank Ten, there was no clear information about the talents.

After carefully examining the talent information, Ye Fei gained some understanding of talents.

"Talent represents potential. The better the talent, the stronger the potential and the higher the growth in the late stage."

"In fact, if I had enough Origin Points, I wouldn't need to care about talents at all. Just recharge and be done with it. Unfortunately..."

Looking at the rows of items and the long string of numbers behind them, Ye Fei looked at his own single-digit savings and shook his head.

Both talent and strength could be instantly upgraded using Origin Points, even low-level talents could break through their limits. This was the preciousness of Origin Points. However, compared to directly purchasing advanced talents or improving one's own cultivation to advance in ranks, using ten or even a hundred times the amount of Origin Points to break through was too extravagant.

"My vassals must rely on their own efforts. How can I take shortcuts? Self-cultivation and advancement are the best. Vassals who rely on their own efforts are good vassals."

Ye Fei now wanted to establish a frugal and hardworking ancestral motto for his Absolute Beginning realm.

"Traditional virtues must not be forgotten."

In addition to strength and talent, vassals also had skills, specialties, techniques, and so on. Except for the Overlord function, they were the same as him.

The vassals purchased with 1 Origin Point were all empty, except for a farming skill. They were the same as Ye Fei's initial three-zero products.

"Although they have low strength and no talent, they should have no problem doing some labor-intensive work."

Ye Fei chose a Rank One initial stage vassal with no attributes and spent 1 Origin Point.

A person slowly walked out of the teleportation gate near the wooden house not far away. It was the vassal Ye Fei had just bought.

"Reporting to Overlord."

Ye Fei looked at the vassal who had come before him and nodded.

"Get up."

[Name: Wang Qing]

[Level: Rank One initial stage]

[Talent: None]

[Skill: Farming (Primary)]

[Specialty: None]

[Equipment: None]

...

Wang Qing stood up and stood silently on the side.

Ye Fei looked at Wang Qing, who had the same clothes, average build, and a simple and honest face as when he started. He felt that his first vassal in the territory didn't seem very intelligent.

"Let's go, I'll teach you two tasks. You will mainly do them in the future."

While Ye Fei was speaking, he led Wang Qing to the Void Crossbow. The devouring was not over yet, so he could only give a brief explanation. He would wait for the Void Crossbow to cool down before actually operating it.

Then he began to explain the fishing techniques to Wang Qing.

"Pay attention. Use this kind of food bait first, then the soil block, and finally these others. Understand?"

Ye Fei looked at Wang Qing and said.

"Understood, Overlord."

Wang Qing replied.

"Would you like to try it?"

Ye Fei handed the Void Fishing Rod to him and watched by the side, ready to protect the fishing rod in case of any accidents.

Watching Wang Qing clumsily attach the bait and cast the fishing hook, slowly disappearing into the void, Ye Fei was very satisfied.

"It seems that the 1 Origin Point was well spent. Although he seems a bit foolish, his intelligence is not much different from a normal person. He should have no problem with fishing and catching in the future. However, I still need to observe him for another two days. The Void Crossbow is fixed, but the fishing rod is not. Losing it would be a big loss."

While Ye Fei was calculating, he looked at Wang Qing.

The Void Three-piece Set that came with the territory at the beginning was not available in the Void Mall. Ye Fei only discovered it after searching in the store. In other words, once it was lost, it was gone. This was a loss that Ye Fei couldn't afford right now, so he was extremely careful and didn't dare to be careless.

"After fishing, you must return the fishing rod to me. When you need it again, come find me to collect it. There must be no mishaps, understood?"

Ye Fei said solemnly.

"Understood, Lord Overlord."

"Mm."

Ye Fei nodded and patted his shoulder, saying, "Your task is important and crucial. It's just the two of us in this territory now, so we must work hard and do these two tasks well. If there are any gains, I won't hesitate to reward you."

"Yes, Lord Overlord. I will do my best," Wang Qing said earnestly.

Looking at Wang Qing's silly face in front of him, Ye Fei felt that he had said enough and no longer needed to motivate him.

"You do your best," Ye Fei said.

"Yes."

Ye Fei returned to the wooden house, picked up his long sword, and returned to Wang Qing's side. He handed over the fishing activity but was worried about the fishing rod, so he planned to practice swordsmanship on the side, ready to intervene in case of any accidents.

After taking a glance at Wang Qing, who was sitting there motionless, staring at the fishing line, Ye Fei didn't notice any problems and started practicing swordsmanship.

"Hoo..."

Taking a deep breath, calming his mind, Ye Fei adjusted his state and prepared to start learning the basic sword techniques. He was about to raise his hand and lift the sword...

"Lord Overlord, Lord Overlord, come quickly..."

"He's moving... he's moving..."

A call instantly interrupted Ye Fei's movement.

"What? Already?" Ye Fei stopped his movement and looked at Wang Qing beside him.

Less than five minutes had passed, and there was a reaction.

Wang Qing looked at Ye Fei excitedly and said, "Lord Overlord, he's moving. Is this a bite, as you said?"

Ye Fei deeply looked at this foolish person and thought to himself, "Could it be that fools really have good luck?"

Looking at the storage box that was pulled back, Ye Fei didn't think too much anymore.

Wang Qing reeled in the fishing hook and handed the storage box to Ye Fei with both hands.

"Lord Overlord, here you go."

Looking at the familiar Rank One storage wooden box, of which he had opened many before, Ye Fei didn't take it.

Ye Fei looked at him and said, "This is your first catch. Open it yourself."

"Huh? Okay, Lord Overlord."

Wang Qing was stunned for a moment, but after reacting, he happily opened the storage box.

Watching Wang Qing being a bit flustered, Ye Fei felt that this was an accident. Beginners always get some benefits; that's normal.

"Why is there still light? What is this?"

A light flashed as Wang Qing opened the storage box, causing Ye Fei to squint his eyes. He had opened dozens of Rank One storage boxes in the past few days, but he had never seen a flash of light before.

"What the hell is this? Does opening a Rank One storage box have special effects?"

The light dissipated, revealing a card emitting a faint glow in front of Ye Fei and Wang Qing.

[Spirit Spring: Rank One, Perfect Grade. Note: A spring water slightly infused with spiritual energy. Drinking it regularly strengthens the body, promotes health, and enhances wisdom.]

"What the f*ck..."

Ye Fei took the Spirit Spring card, confirmed it again, and then turned around to hug Wang Qing.

"You are truly my lucky star. Well done! From now on, as long as I, Ye Fei, have enough to eat, you won't go hungry, kid."

"Hahaha..."

While saying this, Ye Fei patted Wang Qing again.

Wang Qing felt a little embarrassed and rubbed his hands, not knowing what to do. Seeing Lord Overlord laughing, he could only laugh along.

Ye Fei shook his head and said, "Alright, stop laughing, silly. From now on, the two of us can drink Spirit Spring water. You should drink more then. Maybe it will make your brain more agile."

"Yes, Lord Overlord. I will drink more," Wang Qing obediently replied.

"Alright, you continue. Keep up the good work."

Ye Fei let Wang Qing continue fishing while he took the Spirit Spring card and returned to the center of the territory. The territory was too small, so he had to choose a place to place the Spirit Spring.
