"Roar... Roar..."
Dragon Rages, the most destructive move of the Dragon-Subduing Strike, was launched.
Boom!
Hit by the magnificent punch that was mixed with Dragon Aura, Wuyan Guang's arms were broken at the same time. The halberd in his hands that was Extraordinary Rank-9 was knocked almost fifty meters away.
Crack!
His three layers of armor all cracked and lost their defensive ability.
"Lightning!"
Following that, Gongsun Sheng roared from the sky.
Boom!
A thick lightning dragon dived and hit the skull of the Quasi Commander of Liao, killing the last villain leader who was also attacked by several other people.
[You have contributed to the killing of Liao's commander Wuyan Guang (Extraordinary Rank-9 Quasi Commander). EXP received: 2, 394. Honor received: 299. Rare Honor: 25. Civilization Coins: 3, 059!]
After the notification of killing popped up in Ji Ye's head, from Wuyan Guang's body, which still stood on the battlefield even though his armor had been molten by the lightning, a stream of the magnificent power of providence surged out and joined with the power of providence from the other Liao generals, moving to the Twin Dragon Island's Temple of Providence.
Immediately, the yellow clouds that had been gathering above the Temple of Providence for an entire day began to roil.
"Roar... Roar..."
At the center of the Twin Dragon Island's settlement core, the two yellow five-clawed dragons, which were dim because of exhaustion and the heavy casualties in the settlement, became excited and appeared on the Temple of Providence.
[You have killed the enemy leaders and killed or subdued more than 90% of enemies. Your settlement has passed the Transcendent advancement test. It's qualified to advance!]
The notification that they passed the test popped up.
Then, the Twin Dragons of Providence rose and dashed into the yellow clouds in delight.
Splash!
The tremendous power of providence filled them and soon brightened and solidified the two baby dragons.
After they were both greatly condensed, both of them roared.
Like butterflies breaking out of the cocoons, the baby dragons, which were about two meters long earlier, grew significantly longer without stopping.
By the time the clouds of providence were fully consumed, the two dragons were already more than fifteen meters long. They were no longer baby dragons but young dragons.
"Are they dragons?"
"They're real dragons!"
After the advancement, the two substantial dragons of providence hovered in the sky delightedly, awing the villain soldiers on the ground to their knees, before they both flew back to the Temple of Providence.
"Roar... Roar..."
Then, after another dragon roar, an invisible wind started blowing on the Twin Dragon Island as well as the continents of the four villains.
Wherever the wind reached, the bodies of the Liao soldiers would soon be gone from the battlefield and transformed into yellow power of providence. It was then gathered and moved to the Twin Dragon Island's Temple of Providence.
It was not as good as the Commander-level generals' or Wuyan Guang's in terms of quality.
However, because of the large number of soldiers, they still offered plenty of power of providence.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
In fact, not just the bodies of the Liao soldiers, but those of Fang La's and Wang Qing's also turned into yellow spots of light and flew back.
"Ah, what's going on?"
"My body is disappearing!"
Some villain soldiers chose to run to forests after their failures and hide. Due to the lack of hands, the Twin Dragon Island had no time to search for them. At this moment, they discovered in fear that their bodies were turning transparent.
"Are our souls really going to disperse?"
"No, I don't want to die!"
Seeing that the soldiers of Liao who were fighting them suddenly collapsed, the three thousand soldiers who surrendered looked rather panicked.
But very soon, they found that their bodies didn't collapse as did the soldiers who just failed the battle.
"As expected, the villains carry the power of races and civilizations too and can be taken advantage of!"
Ji Ye, who stood on the top of the golden chariot, noticed the scene and remarked softly.
The Twin Dragon Island had a meeting the previous night about the soldiers who surrendered.
Undoubtedly, they only had two outcomes.
The first possibility was that they would disappear from the Land of Inheritance because they failed to complete their mission.
If it did happen, the people of the Twin Dragon Island wouldn't feel too guilty. In fact, they would only be taking advantage of those people anyway.
However, Elder Zhou, who had the deepest understanding of the rules of the Land of Inheritance, believed that the villains could be the power of a settlement too!
It was because the villains in the eyes of the ordinary people were not necessarily bad guys, such as Lord Baiyue, Wutian, Joker, Darth Vader, Loki, Aizen...
To some extent, those people were even more capable than the heroes, except that they were sometimes unlucky. If they were put in a settlement, they were even more suitable to be the one to fight aliens on behalf of Earth civilizations than most heroes!
As Elder Zhou expected, after the Twin Dragons of Providence completed the quest, a lot of information popped up in Ji Ye's head.
One piece of the information was about the villains.
After a settlement became Transcendent, it would be possible to take in the villains so that they wouldn't disappear!
Of course, that came with a cost.
Because the villains didn't belong to the settlement, they couldn't provide any power of providence for the settlement.
Instead, to maintain their existence on the Land of Inheritance, the settlement's power of providence would be consumed. The stronger they were, the more power of providence they would consume.
It meant that a settlement could not absorb villains infinitely, as that would've resulted in stagnation or even the decline of the settlement.
Of course, the villains weren't really a burden.
For example, the three thousand soldiers who surrendered had more than five hundred Extraordinary soldiers and more than twenty Commander-level ones. They were enough to destroy a regular settlement!
Now that the Twin Dragon Island had almost lost half of its soldiers during the advancement test, the three thousand soldiers could be of great help.
Also, after the villains accumulated enough Honor on the Land of Inheritance, they could be transformed into members of a settlement.
For Ji Ye, there was a simpler way, which was the contracting talent.
However, speaking of talent...
After the settlement became Transcendent, the players' talent skills and the heroes' talent abilities were changed too!
From this moment on, the people of the Twin Dragon Island couldn't use their talent skills without cost as they did earlier.
In fact, Ji Ye had always been wondering something.
What was the cost of talents and talent skills?
After all, they seemed to be too powerful.
At this moment, he realized that the talent skills did have a cost, and the cost was the power of providence of the civilization they belonged to.
In fact, when his Fusion, Elder Meng's Aura Observation, Shang Yan's Heart Questioning, Wu Song's One Slash, Li Yuanba's Infinite Stamina, and Zhao Yun's Power of Dragon Valiance were performed, they would consume the power of providence of mankind.
It was also why only the distinguished players and the highly popular talents had talent abilities!
However, after the settlement's advancement, the power of providence that performing a talent would cost would be provided by the settlement itself.
In fact, not just the talent, a lot of other things were also supported by the power of providence of civilizations at the Extraordinary level. For example, the Black Serpent was only an Extraordinary Rank-1 creature, yet it dropped an Extraordinary Rank-3 Black Serpent Sword!
However, after the settlement became Transcendent, the settlement had to count on itself.
Ji Ye thought of a picture.
The power of providence that belonged to mankind and Earth patted the heads of the frustrated dragons of providence and said solemnly, "You've already grown up. You have to be responsible for your own gains and losses now."
Responsible for their own gains and losses!
It was not exactly a bad thing.
Take the Fusion talent for example. Its long cooldown was because of the restriction of the power of providence that human beings and Earth provided.
Now that the Twin Dragon Island, which he was in charge of, was going to provide the power of providence for him, didn't it mean that...
He could use Fusion infinitely?
