Lin Baici hadn’t had time to savor the feeling of fullness after this feast when, in the next instant, a severe pain attacked his brain, making him feel like a Titan giant wielding a hammer, smashing his head, or like an iron awl piercing through his skull.
The piercing pain!
Lin Baici gritted his teeth and endured it because he had experienced it once before and knew that it was the absorption of divine grace.
Sure enough, after a dozen seconds, the pain disappeared, and Lin Baici’s mind gained some mysterious knowledge.
It was two divine graces!
That familiar feeling was as if he had been born with it.
The King’s Armor Removal, Bare Body.
When Lin Baici activated this divine grace and punched an enemy fully armed, the enemy’s armor would be damaged. The more punches landed, the greater the damage to the enemy’s armor. In the end, it would completely disappear, and even the clothes would turn into fragments, turning the enemy into a naked pig.
In addition to clothes and armor, this divine grace also had an effect on defensive divine graces. In short, when Lin Baici used this divine grace against an enemy, the enemy’s defense and armor would be directly broken. In front of him, they could only withstand his attacks with their bodies.
“If the power of this divine grace is really described like this, wouldn’t it be super powerful?”
Lin Baici browsed through the information in his mind, his expression shocked and excited. He had become stronger again, and he still had his hair.
Speaking of which, this divine grace could be considered a variant of the Clothes Removal divine grace, right?
The other divine grace was called the Wine Pool and Meat Forest.
This divine grace was always active and had a continuous effect after learning it. Afterward, Lin Baici could eat and drink as much as he wanted, even if it was a feast of seafood and beer, without worrying about high blood pressure or diabetes, and without fearing gaining weight and becoming a pig.
This divine grace would digest all the food and metabolize all the impurities out of the body.
Furthermore, Lin Baici’s alcohol tolerance would also greatly increase. To get him drunk, he would need at least ten catties of liquor.
Beer?
That’s just water. He wouldn’t get drunk even if he drank the amount of a swimming pool.
When this divine grace was activated, its effect became even more domineering. A person’s appreciation ability for gourmet food and fine wine would improve, allowing them to taste the best flavor of a dish and understand the chef’s mindset in preparing it.
At this point, the person’s alcohol tolerance had already greatly increased, and they wouldn’t get drunk even after a thousand cups.
But its most important effect was to strengthen the body.
When the Wine Pool and Meat Forest were activated, indulging in food and drink became a form of exercise equivalent to fitness. Even if one played all night long, they wouldn’t feel tired but instead become more energetic.
The same applied to activities in bed. No matter how many people or how many rounds of poker, they wouldn’t get tired.
The effect of the Wine Pool and Meat Forest depended on the quality of the food and wine. The better the food and the more fragrant the wine, the stronger the effect.
“Oh!”
This time, Lin Baici couldn’t help but curse.
This divine grace was too powerful!
The King’s Armor Removal, Bare Body. Although this divine grace couldn’t directly increase his attack power, it was stronger in a certain sense than increasing his attack power. Because it meant that when Lin Baici hit his target, the target would be without armor, just like when others hit the target. It could be said that it increased the group’s attack power.
But Lin Baici wasn’t shocked because, with 365 days in a year, he couldn’t explore the God’s Ruins every day. Even if he wanted to, there wouldn’t be so many God’s Ruins for him to explore.
But the Wine Pool and Meat Forest was different. It could also be effective in daily life.
Don’t look at Lin Baici being young; he still paid attention to his diet. It wasn’t about eating fewer carbohydrates, but rather balancing meat and vegetables to ensure a balanced diet. As for cola, he only drank it occasionally.
After all, everyone says that soda is unhealthy.
Now?
Eat to your heart’s content.
Skewers by the roadside, hamburgers, fries, and a full night snack. Isn’t it worth it to treat your stomach?
Just thinking about it makes him feel great!
And the effect after activation, indulging in food and drink can also be a form of exercise?
Damn!
Won’t this make those people who go to the gym every day and still can’t get a good figure jealous?
Keep a low profile! Keep a low profile!
[You completely missed the point. The most powerful effect of the Wine Pool and Meat Forest is that it prevents fatigue. Only in this way can all three thousand beauties in the palace be satisfied!]
“Little Lin, did you find the divine corpse?”
Xia Hongyao came over after settling Hua Yueyu and Tang Zhiqian.
“…”
Lin Baici touched his stomach. He did find it, but he ate it.
He was no longer a clueless novice about the God’s Ruins. Each God’s Ruin was formed because of the radiation from the divine corpse. So when Lin Baici told Hua Yueyu earlier that he didn’t see the divine corpse in the Dragon Zen Temple, it was simply impossible.
The divine corpse was extremely dangerous. Even direct contact with it by Divine Hunter could cause contamination. It was completely unthinkable for someone to eat it.
If this secret were to be revealed, Lin Baici would most likely become a guinea pig, snatched and dissected by various hunting organizations.
“I found it!”
Sorry, I can only keep it from you.Lin Baici handed the divine corpse he snatched from the left eye of the king to Xia Hongyao.
【A piece of divine corpse without divine grace, still small and pitiful, even a snack feels chilly.】
“Why did you directly grab it with your hand? Put it down! Put it down quickly!”
Xia Hongyao was startled.
This thing is very dangerous.
“Then I’ll put it in the black altar bowl!”
Lin Baici felt that he should get a few black coffins. He had already confirmed that he would not be contaminated by the divine corpse and the divine taboo he possessed.
This kind of thing should be unusual, so he still needs to put on a show and not let others see any flaws.
“That works!”
Xia Hongyao glanced at the sky.
After this divine corpse was contained, the surrounding dark mist dissipated faster, indicating that the God’s Ruins had been broken.
“I don’t know how many hours have passed outside, but it shouldn’t be long!”
Xia Hongyao was excited. This achievement was quite impressive.
She had only experienced it once before when she followed her sister.
If Little Lin becomes my companion, can we show off like this more often in the future?
Looking forward to it!
“Let’s go out!”
Lin Baici let out a sigh of relief. It hadn’t been long, but the mental pressure was quite high, especially the last night banquet at the Plucking Stars Palace.
After all, no one would feel comfortable seeing so many dead bodies.
“Okay!” Xia Hongyao took a few steps and suddenly remembered something. “Wait, I’ll give you the meteorite!”
She handed the meteorite that she picked up after killing the enemy of ten thousand people to Lin Baici.
“You are not a member of the Security Bureau yet, so the divine taboo and meteorite you obtained are your spoils of war, but the divine corpse is not allowed. That thing is too dangerous. However, the Security Bureau will reward you!”
Xia Hongyao explained.
“Let’s split this stone in half!”
Lin Baici knew without thinking that the divine corpse that could create the God’s Ruins and most likely carried divine grace, as well as the divine taboo that could produce divine artifacts, were absolutely not allowed to be privately held by any major organization.
“That enemy of ten thousand people was killed by you, and I didn’t contribute much. Besides, you are still a newcomer now. You should absorb more divine power and strengthen your body so that you can resist higher levels of contamination from divine taboos in the future!”
Xia Hongyao handed the meteorite to Lin Baici.
Not to mention this God’s Ruins, she didn’t have much share of the spoils of war. Even if she did, she wouldn’t want them. Instead, she would give them to Lin Baici first and help him grow.
Xia Hongyao was very generous towards her companions.
“Then I will accept it gratefully!”
Lin Baici no longer stood on ceremony. The most urgent task now was to improve his strength and establish a foothold in the Godhunter Circle.
He remembered this kindness from Xia Hongyao and would repay her in the future.
“Why are you still being polite with me?”
Xia Hongyao patted Lin Baici’s shoulder casually.
“Let’s go. The people from the Security Bureau are probably already waiting outside the God’s Ruins, ready to explore once it stabilizes!”
“Haha, I wonder what expression they will have when they see that the God’s Ruins have been broken?”
Xia Hongyao was looking forward to it. She didn’t know if her sister had come or not.
…
In the western suburbs of Haijing City, several roads leading to Qiansui Mountain had been completely blocked.
The Godhunters belonging to the Haijing Branch of the Nine Provinces Security Bureau immediately mobilized upon receiving the news.
Because this God’s Ruins was too close to Haijing City and of great importance, Vice Minister Xia Hongmian personally led the team this time.
Nine black bulletproof vehicles stopped by the roadside, and about thirty meters in front of them was churning black mist.
“Minister, why is the mist dispersing?”
A young man sitting on the engine hood smoking a cigarette was stunned when he saw the mist visibly thinning.
“Someone broke the God’s Ruins!”
A middle-aged man with a scar on his brow explained.
There was only one possibility for this situation: someone had contained the divine corpse.
“I know, I’m asking who did it?”
The young man was frustrated. Minister Xia was leading the team this time, and he had prepared to show off his skills, but now the God’s Ruins were gone?
When the meteorite had just fallen and brought the God’s Ruins, it was not the time to enter and explore.
Because the dark mist was pervasive and visibility was zero, and at this time, the radiation intensity of the divine corpse was at its highest, and it was also the most active time for divine taboos.
Under normal circumstances, the Godhunters would wait for about ten hours to ensure that the God’s Ruins had stabilized before entering.
Of course, if the meteorite fell in a residential area, the hunters would enter immediately to prevent many civilians from dying.
In a situation like now, where it fell in the suburbs, there was no need to rush to enter.
“It has only been six hours since the appearance of the God’s Ruins. It was broken so quickly, it should be a Dragon-level, right?”
“Or an experienced Lion King would also be possible!”
“Young man, do you look down on us Lion Kings?”
The hunters argued.
“Let’s go!”
A female voice came from the last bulletproof vehicle, and more than twenty hunters stopped discussing and immediately got on the vehicles.
The convoy set off and advanced along the mountain road.
Twenty minutes later, they arrived at Palm Port.
The gate was directly rammed open, and the convoy drove in.Everyone became alert.
Although the God’s Ruins had disappeared, there was still a possibility of a sudden outbreak of divine taboo, so they had to be cautious.
The convoy continued to move forward.
On the west side of the golf course, the lawn was withered, and some bodies could be seen. On the right side, a building was burning, emitting thick smoke.
Creak!
The convoy suddenly stopped.
Because there were faint voices coming from the woods beside them.
The hunters got off the car and prepared for battle.
“They can’t all be dead, right? I saw Wang Mingfu and his people run away.”
Lin Baici and Xia Hongyao didn’t leave immediately. Instead, they searched for survivors, but after circling around, they found nothing.
“They might have run into another area contaminated by the rules and got killed!”
That was also possible.
In the God’s Ruins, running in the wrong direction meant death as well.
“Let’s hurry back to the city? Let the authorities handle things here!”
Tang Zhiqian wanted to go to the hospital to get a check-up.
“I am an authority!”
After Xia Hongyao finished speaking, she turned her head and looked over.
Lin Baici also stopped in his tracks.
Outside the woods, about thirty meters away, there was a row of black cars, and the people standing beside them were all dressed in black suits, white shirts, and black leather shoes.
Even the women were dressed like this.
“What’s going on?”
Lin Baici frowned.
“Uncle Zhao?”
Xia Hongyao saw these people and immediately waved her hand, then ran over.
“Hongyao?”
Scarred Uncle saw Xia Hongyao and was stunned. Then he looked at the last bulletproof car.
Bang!
The car door opened, and a woman in her twenties got out. She glanced at Xia Hongyao, confirmed that she was fine, then her gaze swept over Tang Zhiqian and Hua Yueyu, finally landing on Lin Baici.
Lin Baici narrowed his eyes.
The woman’s gaze was sharp, as if she could see through people’s hearts. But it was only for a moment, and her gaze returned to calmness, like a still lake without any ripples, as if it could sink everything.
[Oh my god, a supreme feast in the mortal world, an extraordinary delicacy!]
[Eat her! Eat her! Eat her!]
The voice of the Food God was excited.
Lin Baici observed this woman. She wore black leather shoes, black trousers, and the hem of her white shirt was tucked into a black belt. She wore a red tie.
The buttons on the cuffs and collar were all meticulously fastened.
Her appearance was somewhat similar to Xia Hongyao, but her chest was not as big, and compared to Xia Hongyao’s somewhat foolish look, this woman was calm, introverted, and exuded a powerful aura. She seemed like the kind of person that no one dared to play tricks on.
Hua Yueyu and Tang Zhiqian were glanced at by Xia Hongmian, and they immediately shrank their necks, as if they were back in middle school, being called by their parents.
Anxious! Scared!
“Hongyao, have you been in this God’s Ruins all this time?”
“What about that Dragon-level Hunter?”
“What kind of rule contamination have you experienced? Tell us!”
The colleagues gathered around.
Apart from Xia Hongyao’s identity as the Deputy Minister’s younger sister, she was pure, enthusiastic, and outgoing. She got along well with everyone in the Security Bureau, so she had a good reputation.
“What Dragon-level Hunter?”
Xia Hongyao was stunned.
“No Dragon-level?”
Xu Shuo took a puff of smoke. “Then it must be a Lion King?”
“Let’s go search for survivors first.”
Xia Hongyao instructed.
Everyone immediately dispersed and searched the entire Palm Harbor.
“Sis!”
Xia Hongyao greeted and lowered her head, like an orange cat caught stealing fish jerky.
“Go rest in the car!”
Xia Hongmian said, then walked towards Lin Baici.
“Sis, he is the Lin Baici I told you about!”
Xia Hongyao didn’t go, but followed behind Xia Hongmian. “We were able to break through the God’s Ruins so quickly this time because of him!”
“You must give me a spot for him to enter the Security Bureau without an exam. It’s really disrespectful!”
“I think geniuses should be favored.”
Xia Hongyao chattered, but when Xia Hongmian turned around and looked at her, she suddenly choked, her neck shrank, and her head lowered, as if she had encountered a natural enemy.
Gulp!
Xia Hongyao swallowed her saliva, but in the end, she didn’t say anything. She glanced at Lin Baici and obediently went to the car.
“You two go to the car, someone will help you with first aid!”
Xia Hongmian smiled and said to Hua Yueyu and Tang Zhiqian.
“Oh!”
Hua Yueyu looked at Lin Baici.
Xia Hongmian was actually very beautiful, but for some reason, when Tang Zhiqian looked at her, he didn’t have the gaze of a man looking at a woman. Instead, he had the mentality of wanting to quickly escape from her side.
So Tang Zhiqian ran away.
“You go get treated first!”
Lin Baici told Hua Yueyu to leave. She didn’t know what this woman wanted to do, and the Food God had been shouting at him to eat her.
Kidding, could he really eat her?Divine hunters couldn’t be suppressed by power alone. This woman, who could command so many subordinates, must have extraordinary strength.
Hua Yueyu didn’t leave. In case Lin Baici needed anything, she could help.
“Are you hurt?”
Xia Hongmian looked at Lin Baici.
“Lucky!”
Lin Baici shrugged.
“Is this the modesty of a genius?”
Xia Hongmian asked.
Upon hearing the word ‘genius’, Lin Baici raised an eyebrow. It was the first time he had been praised in such a way.
“The Jiuzhou Security Bureau has a genius recruitment clause. It offers exemption from exams, an annual salary of one hundred million yuan, 3000 meteor coins, free access to the Divine taboo stored by the Bureau, access to the Bureau’s collected data, and the ability to apply for paid leave at any time, up to three years.”
Xia Hongmian looked at a seven-story building. It was the hotel of Palm Harbor.
Lin Baici and the others had also come out from here. It could be said that the location of the Star Palace corresponded to this place, which was also where the divine remains were buried.
“What do you mean?”
Lin Baici guessed that the other party wanted to recruit him, but he felt it was unlikely.
“I hope you will join the Jiuzhou Security Bureau!”
Xia Hongmian extended her right hand to Lin Baici.
“…”
Hua Yueyu was dumbfounded.
Did I hear that right?
This offer was to hire Xiaobai?
What are meteor coins? Let’s not mention that for now. That’s an annual salary of up to one hundred million yuan.
Oh my God,
If I had that, I would be financially free!
Why bother with live streaming? The world is so big, I want to see it all!
“What about the obligations?”
If he had just become a divine hunter, let alone one hundred million, even the six hundred thousand yuan offered by Gao Matou would have tempted Lin Baici.
After all, he was really afraid of being poor. His mother worked herself to death every month for just over three thousand yuan.
Excluding bonuses and various benefits, his basic monthly salary alone would be nearly twenty times his mother’s. Who wouldn’t be tempted?
But these days, as he browsed the Origin Forum and learned about the hunter circle, especially after this unexpected encounter with God’s Ruins and surviving, Lin Baici’s values had somewhat changed.
“No obligations!”
Xia Hongmian’s answer made Lin Baici stunned: “None?”
“For someone like you, after tasting the grace of the divine, would you stop exploring?”
Xia Hongmian countered.
