Chapter 36

It must be said that although Zhou Tian had expected it, the richness of the Blood Moon Sect Master's reward still surprised him. The three choices given by the Blood Moon Sect Master, the first reward was what Zhou Tian and his group had anticipated. Although it could be considered a generous reward, it did not surprise Zhou Tian and his group. The third reward, although it carried significant risks, even Zhou Tian had to admit that if he could survive by luck, the gains from this reward would be something he had never dared to imagine. The choice Zhou Tian made at the moment was based on certain considerations, but when he truly felt the changes in himself, he was still surprised.

Two of the three rewards from the Blood Moon Sect Master were considered generous. Therefore, the reward Zhou Tian received now would naturally not be inferior.

First, the experience Zhou Tian received was so much that it was somewhat frightening. Due to the matters on his mind, Zhou Tian did not feel it much at the time. But now, when Zhou Tian came to his senses and truly focused on the experience in his body and the information in his mind, he was directly stunned.

What kind of information was prompted in Zhou Tian's mind?

The information Zhou Tian received actually told him that besides the option to evolve, he could also use the experience to exchange for a skill or the opportunity to reincarnate as a monster with a strength level below 100.

Under normal circumstances, at Zhou Tian's current stage, even if he killed a dozen players, the experience he would gain would only be enough to strengthen a certain talent. However, in this situation, the experience Zhou Tian received now gave him three choices. What did this mean? It meant that the experience given by the Blood Moon Sect Master was probably equivalent to the experience gained from killing hundreds or even thousands of opponents.

The vast amount of experience made Zhou Tian momentarily lose his senses. However, after regaining his composure, Zhou Tian immediately made a choice.

Directly reincarnating as another monster was naturally impossible, even though it would greatly enhance Zhou Tian's strength. However, being a cannon fodder under someone else's command was not as comfortable as being a local commander now. Without mentioning the idea of being a snake head rather than a dragon tail, at least as a commander, Zhou Tian would not have to worry about losing control of himself to others.

The first choice was also eliminated by Zhou Tian. He believed that this vast amount of experience would certainly allow all his talents to evolve to the highest level. Perhaps, at that time, Zhou Tian might even gain a few new elemental talents.

However, ordinary evolution usually involves strengthening and acquiring talents. Zhou Tian would not fear not being able to obtain the necessary experience for evolution as long as he continued to fight. On the contrary, the opportunity to gain a skill by obtaining a large amount of experience at once was very rare. In this situation, Zhou Tian naturally knew what to do to benefit his future development the most.

Thus, Zhou Tian naturally decided to stake all his experience to see what kind of skill he could obtain through this opportunity.

Without making Zhou Tian wait too long, after he made his choice, the experience in his body was immediately cleared. As the experience disappeared, Zhou Tian's mind received a corresponding skill information.

"Resurrection: Can be used once every five minutes to revive a monster that has died within one hour and whose body is intact."

"Although monsters are very difficult to obtain equipment and skills, this skill is truly f*cking amazing." Zhou Tian kept savoring the skill information in his mind for a long time. Finally, after sighing in admiration, he shifted his attention to other related information in his mind.

"More benefits?" Zhou Tian was once again greatly surprised. After receiving so much experience as a reward for his contributions, Zhou Tian already felt that he had gained a lot. Just based on the power of the resurrection ability, Zhou Tian did not doubt that using a human wave tactic would increase the effectiveness of his strategy by more than 50%. With such a significant gain, Zhou Tian felt that all his efforts to occupy that NPC village were worth it.

However, just when Zhou Tian was already feeling satisfied, the Blood Moon Sect Master did not stop and gave him even more benefits.

First, without Zhou Tian having to spend any experience, the Blood Moon Sect Master directly gave him an auxiliary skill. It was not a remarkable ability, just the ability to see health points. Zhou Tian did a test and found that once the Blood Moon Sect Master's health viewing skill was activated, he could see the health points of enemies as if playing a game. Seeing the red bars above the heads of his subordinates, the half-orcs, Zhou Tian knew that although this skill had no power, its assistance to the user was greater than many powerful skills.

In addition to the health viewing skill, the Blood Moon Sect Master also informed Zhou Tian of a lot of information that he could not have known otherwise. For example, Zhou Tian did not know that after occupying a certain amount of territory, his half-orc race could set up new positions or even evolve into another type of monster.

At the same time, whether intentionally or unintentionally, the Skeleton King also included some information related to branching out in the information given to Zhou Tian.

According to the information in Zhou Tian's mind, when his strength reached a certain level, he could directly annex the Blood Moon race to replace their position. Of course, if Zhou Tian did not have that strength but wanted to branch out, he would need to find a specific item to truly branch out, which was the Demon Transformation Pool.

The Demon Transformation Pool was the foundation of a monster faction. Zhou Tian knew that the birth of monsters relied entirely on the Demon Transformation Pool when he first became a small boss. However, it was only after receiving more information from the Blood Moon Sect Master that Zhou Tian truly understood how important the Demon Transformation Pool was.

Although Zhou Tian knew the Demon Transformation Pool was important, due to his low position, he had no power to act independently. Therefore, although he knew about the Demon Transformation Pool, he did not study it much. As a result, his understanding of independence and the Demon Transformation Pool was limited.

However, for some reason, the Blood Moon Sect Master not only did not hide the information about the Demon Transformation Pool but also directly informed Zhou Tian of how to create it.

According to the information in Zhou Tian's mind, to build a Demon Transformation Pool, the first thing to do was to find an embryo. Only with the embryo could the Demon Transformation Pool be built.

The embryo of the Demon Transformation Pool was something Zhou Tian completely did not understand, called the Demon God Core. Although Zhou Tian saw the appearance of this item in his mind, to be honest, he could not remember ever seeing anything similar.

However, it did not matter to Zhou Tian. Independence was too early for him at this stage. Since he did not have the strength to do it, he did not need to worry about it too much. Thus, Zhou Tian easily put the matter of the Demon Transformation Pool aside.

The Blood Moon Sect Master's reaction was somewhat beyond Zhou Tian's expectations, and the rewards he gave were something Zhou Tian had not anticipated at all. Although Zhou Tian was concerned that the Blood Moon Sect Master's actions might have ulterior motives, without understanding those motives, Zhou Tian could not consider too much and could only suppress his concerns.

However, regardless of the extra worries, Zhou Tian's actions this time were a huge gain. Not only did his personal strength improve significantly, but the number of half-orcs under his command also exceeded the original number due to the Blood Moon Sect Master's supplementation. If he could also annex the Skeleton race, just with this one plan, Zhou Tian himself did not expect that he could directly enhance the strength of the half-orcs he led so much.

After that, for the next few months, Zhou Tian did nothing except train his half-orcs to make them easier to command. He did not provoke any players or NPCs.

In the end, Zhou Tian waited for several months. It was only after several months passed and he learned that the Skeleton race had undergone changes that he took new action.
