Natural God's Gift

"Silver Ginkgo Lord, what is this?" Fourleaf asked, surprised, raising a claw and pointing towards the Secret Vault.

The Secret Vault wasn't large, or rather, not as large as the Treasure Vault outside. It was only a hundred meters in length and width, not comparable to the Treasure Vault outside that covered hundreds of thousands of square meters.

Light energy lamps illuminated the entire Secret Vault. It was a room filled with a technological feel, with rows of identical extraterrestrial civilization creations placed within.

These devices looked similar to the machines used to test their physical fitness before, just much smaller in scale.

The extraterrestrial civilization creation used for physical fitness testing occupied a hundred square meters, while these only occupied one or two square meters, with heights around 1.5 meters. There were also some around one meter tall, sealed off by semi-erect transparent barriers.

One could see through the transparent barriers, and inside were stored some rather rare items.

Silver Ginkgo Lord said with a hint of pride, "Fourleaf, the reason our Flame Spider Kingdom dares to call itself the number one kingdom on the Continent of Myriad Races isn't just because of our kingdom's few Lord-level Flame Spider warriors.

The treasures within this Secret Vault are good things that our Flame Spider Kingdom has been accumulating since the last Force Reincarnation.

Although I oversee the items here, even I am not qualified to use them."

Fourleaf's eight eyes lit up. "Good things accumulated since the last Force Reincarnation?"

During the last Force Reincarnation, the Flame Spider Kingdom was also the number one kingdom on Dragon Bamboo Continent. Moreover, it had developed for eighteen thousand years. The kingdom's wealth was unimaginable. If even they considered something to be good, how valuable would it be?

Fourleaf thought so and asked, "Silver Ginkgo Lord, these things must be worth a lot of Primal Stones, right?"

Silver Ginkgo Lord: "The price is secondary; it's mainly about their rarity."

It began to introduce them to Fourleaf one by one, starting from the beginning.

"This instrument specifically for sealing treasures is called a Divine Restriction Device. It is specifically used to store valuable treasures."

"Divine Restriction Device?" Fourleaf asked, somewhat surprised, "How is it different from a Divine Restriction Box?"

Silver Ginkgo Lord smiled, "I almost forgot, you're lucky. You were able to find a Divine Flame on your trip."

"The function of this Divine Restriction Device is similar to that of a Divine Restriction Box, but its effect is even better. When Divine Bestowed Objects are stored in the Divine Restriction Device, their properties will not change even after thousands or tens of thousands of years."

The Divine Restriction Device wasn't actually called the Divine Restriction Device. According to the records of the extraterrestrial starship, it should be called the God Sealing Casket. Although it didn't look like a casket, that was its name. Out of respect for the Natural True God, the taboo words of 'God Sealing' naturally couldn't be said, so they renamed it the Divine Restriction Device.

Capable of storing Divine Bestowed Objects for thousands or tens of thousands of years?

Before coming, Fourleaf had a premonition that the items it was coming to retrieve might be related to Divine Bestowed Objects, but it didn't expect the kingdom to have extraterrestrial civilization creations capable of storing Divine Bestowed Objects for thousands or tens of thousands of years.

Silver Ginkgo Lord continued, "Now that we're here, you've probably guessed that most of what's stored in this Secret Vault are Divine Bestowed Objects."

Silver Ginkgo Lord continued, "I and the other Lords in the kingdom have discussed it. You and the other combat spiders selected from the kingdom can choose a Divine Bestowed Object to increase your talent types."

"Ah?" Fourleaf was surprised and delighted, and quickly said, "Do you need Primal Stones?"

Silver Ginkgo Lord: "The trade of Divine Bestowed Objects within the kingdom has extremely harsh conditions. To exchange for Divine Bestowed Objects within the kingdom, you need to offer Divine Bestowed Objects in exchange.

However, you are the key training targets of the kingdom and can choose a Divine Bestowed Object worth five million Primal Stones for free. If the Divine Bestowed Object you choose is too precious, the difference can be made up with Divine Bestowed Force Food.

It's just that unlike trading with Force Food, given the preciousness of Divine Bestowed Objects, the kingdom will charge a little interest."

Hearing Silver Ginkgo Lord say that it could choose a Divine Bestowed Object worth five million Primal Stones for free, Fourleaf was overjoyed and also shocked by the kingdom's wealth.

A spider choosing a Divine Bestowed Object worth 5 million Primal Stones meant that the kingdom was investing 20 million Primal Stones in the four spiders.

Moreover, compared to 20 million Primal Stones, what was more important was the irreproducibility of Divine Bestowed Objects. So far,

besides the Earth Divine Milk in the kingdom's cave, it hadn't heard of any other Divine Bestowed Objects that could be continuously produced.

Of course, this might also be because it hadn't seen enough of the world.

Silver Ginkgo Lord naturally wouldn't know what Fourleaf was thinking. It pointed to the first Divine Restriction Device and introduced it to Fourleaf.

This Divine Restriction Device also contains a Divine Restriction Box: "Inside is a Divine Bestowed Spring Breeze collected by a Spider King from the last Force Reincarnation.

The Divine Bestowed Spring Breeze is a Wind-type Divine Bestowed Object, but it also contains Life-type power. Where the spring breeze blows, plants and trees flourish, and all things revive."

Silver Ginkgo Lord said, "After a Zerg warrior devours the Divine Bestowed Spring Breeze, there is a 30% chance of obtaining Wind-type talent at the Mountain Lord level, and it also comes with a Spring Breeze ability. This Divine Bestowed Object is very valuable. If calculated in Primal Stones, it's worth at least 8 million Primal Stones."

"So expensive!" Hearing this price, Fourleaf was a little uneasy. Both were Divine Bestowed Objects, but the Divine Bestowed Heart Fire was only worth 2.5 million Primal Stones, while this Divine Bestowed Spring Breeze was worth more than three times that amount.

However, Fourleaf was a little puzzled: "Silver Ginkgo Lord, since it has already been preserved with a Divine Restriction Box, why put it in a Divine Restriction Device?"

Silver Ginkgo Lord: "Some Divine Bestowed Objects are not suitable to be taken out frequently. The storage time of the Divine Restriction Box is not as long as that of the Divine Restriction Device, and there is currently a surplus, so we simply double-protected it."

"I see."

Silver Ginkgo Lord said, "Fourleaf, what do you think of the Divine Bestowed Spring Breeze? Do you plan to add a Wind-type talent?"

Fourleaf hesitated, struggling: "This costs 8 million Primal Stones, which is a bit expensive. Even if the kingdom waives 5 million Primal Stones, I still have to pay 3 million Primal Stones.

By the way, what is the kingdom's interest rate?"

Silver Ginkgo Lord: "We are all spiders of the same family, the kingdom's interest rate is not much, only 1% interest per year."

Fourleaf: "...—

In that case, the annual interest alone would be thirty thousand Primal Stones.

It wasn't that it couldn't afford this price, but the main thing was that this was just the interest!

The principal still had to be paid. Three hundred thousand Primal Stones, how long would it take to pay that off?

These were not the main problems. The main problem was that this Divine Bestowed Spring Breeze only had a 30% probability of awakening Wind-type talent.

If it failed to awaken the talent, it would be equivalent to losing 8 million Primal Stones, and it would still have to pay 30,000 Primal Stones in interest every year.

Fourleaf didn't refuse outright but said, "Silver Ginkgo Lord, I want to see the other Divine Bestowed Objects."

"Alright." Silver Ginkgo Lord understood Fourleaf's worries. It hadn't seen the other things yet, so how could it make a decision so easily?

It also introduced to Fourleaf the divine bestowments stored within the second God-Forbidden Artifact: "Inside here is stored Thunder Essence. As the name suggests, this is a Thunder-attribute divine bestowment.

This is a treasure that a peak Spider King, who once possessed both Wind and Thunder dual-attribute talents, risked the punishment of the True God of Nature to collect painstakingly in a large thunderstorm area in the sky.

A single drop of Thunder Essence can increase Thunder-attribute talent potential by 2%. Currently, there are only twenty-three drops of Thunder Essence in the Secret Vault.

Because it is relatively difficult to collect, the price is also relatively high. A single drop of divine Thunder Essence is worth 400,000 origin stones. If you choose this, you can receive ten drops of divine Thunder Essence for free to use."

"So expensive?" Fourleaf was taken aback. The Divine Spring Breeze was only worth 8 million origin stones, and that Spring Breeze ability alone was worth 2 million origin stones.

According to Lord Silver Apricot's meaning, the divine Thunder Essence only granted talent potential and did not bestow any other abilities.

Wouldn't it require 20 million origin stones to achieve 100% Thunder-attribute talent?

This price is simply too high.

"It's not expensive," Lord Silver Apricot began to calculate for it: "The price of a God-grade fruit that bestows elemental talent is generally between 5 million and 15 million origin stones.

However, the probability of awakening an elemental talent after consuming them is only between 30% and 45%. On average, if you want to obtain 100% elemental talent, it would probably cost between 20 million and 30 million origin stones.

When it comes to talent bestowal, the Kingdom will not arbitrarily set prices."

Fourleaf silently calculated for a moment. Listening to Lord Silver Apricot's explanation, it felt that the price was not entirely unreasonable, but it still couldn't afford it now. Perhaps after the Three-Star Apricot bears fruit and the price of the God-grade Wish Fruit is set, it would be able to afford it.

"Ten drops of divine Thunder Essence is too little. Although my luck is good, there's no need to gamble so much with a 20% chance of talent awakening."

"I think so too," Lord Silver Apricot actually didn't want Fourleaf to choose the divine Thunder Essence. Fourleaf's Wood-attribute talent potential meant that awakening a Wood-attribute talent when advancing to Mountain Lord level was a certainty.

Wood-attribute talent paired with Wind, Earth, or Water attributes are all excellent choices, while paired with Metal, Fire, or Thunder attributes,

there would be more or less some repulsion. It was only routinely introducing the divine Thunder Essence.

"Then let's continue to look at the next divine bestowment: Deep Sea Heavy Water, a type of divine bestowment produced in the seabed. Its rarity is no less than that of Thunder Essence. Consuming Deep Sea Heavy Water year-round can awaken Water-attribute talent and permanently grant a Water-attribute ability.

The price of Deep Sea Heavy Water is 1.75 million origin stones per liter, and one liter can increase talent potential by about 10%."

A full forty-odd liters of Deep Sea Heavy Water were stored in a jade bottle, and the entire large jade bottle was placed within a God-Forbidden Artifact.

Fourleaf was somewhat tempted by this divine bestowment. Water-attribute talent was a perfect match for Wood-attribute talent. If it had Water-attribute talent, it would be like a fish in water.

However, it still wanted to see the other divine bestowments, so it didn't choose it immediately but silently recorded this type of divine bestowment.

Seeing Fourleaf's silence, Lord Silver Apricot continued to introduce the next divine bestowment: "Earth Godly Milk. I don't know if you know, this is a divine bestowment that our own Kingdom has a fixed annual output of. A single drop of Earth Godly Milk can increase Earth-attribute talent potential by 1%. The underground karst caves in the Kingdom only produce 8-12 drops of Earth Godly Milk a year.

"Because Earth Godly Milk is produced internally within the Kingdom, the price is relatively cheaper than other divine bestowments. 100,000 origin stones can buy a drop.

Previously, Black Three-Prong and the others also chose Earth Godly Milk. After all, the free quota of 5 million origin stones can buy 50

drops of Earth Godly Milk. Even if it fails to awaken after consumption, there will be opportunities to purchase it again in the future, continue to consume it, and increase evolution potential."

Black Three-Prong and the others were the few combat spiders selected by the Kingdom. Among them, Black Three-Prong and Water Chestnut were both Violet Flame Spiders, while Firethorn was a White-Legged Flame Spider.

There was no other way. In terms of combat, Metal and Fire-attribute Flame Spiders had too great an advantage. However, after advancing to Mountain Lord level, this gap would gradually narrow.

Similar to the previous Deep Sea Heavy Water, Fourleaf was also very tempted by Earth Godly Milk.

Fourleaf suddenly asked curiously: "Lord Silver Apricot, shouldn't these things that can be continuously produced be prioritized for the Kingdom's lords? Why would they be left for us little warriors to eat first?"

Lord Silver Apricot: "There's a reason for this. The forbidden area that produces Earth Godly Milk hasn't recovered for many years,

and the amount of Earth Godly Milk produced is still relatively limited. To consume Earth Godly Milk, one must first gather origin stones and happen to reach the critical point of evolution.

Reaching our level, a single evolution can take twenty or thirty years, so very few lord-level Flame Spiders need it now."

Fourleaf: "Then didn't you evolve once before? Did you eat any?"

Lord Silver Apricot's face darkened. It had eaten some before evolution, but it failed to awaken Earth-attribute talent. Now that it was waiting for the Three-Star Apricot to mature, it would never consume Earth Godly Milk, wasting the treasure.

It skipped this topic that didn't please the spider very much and continued to introduce other divine bestowments.

In addition to the previous types of divine bestowments, there were also Fire-attribute Lava Flame, Earth-attribute Black Original Soil,

Metal-attribute Silver Essence, and so on.

The most precious should be a divine bestowment that could bestow Soul-attribute talent, called Soul Soil. It was only half a cubic meter, but Lord Silver Apricot said it was worth 120 million origin stones, which greatly shocked Fourleaf. This was even higher than the price of most divine seeds.

It also didn't know how long the Kingdom's spiders had been storing them, but there were no less than forty types of divine bestowments here.

What surprised Fourleaf the most was that the largest number in the Secret Vault was not divine bestowments but God-grade fruits.

One by one, God-grade fruits were placed in the God-Forbidden Artifacts, numbering sixty or seventy, of all types.

Lord Silver Apricot introduced to Fourleaf: "These God-grade fruits were purchased and stored by us from those tribes on the Dragon Bamboo Continent at the end of the last Primal Energy Cycle, when many God-grade divine bestowments were about to leave the Star Realm.

"With these divine bestowments and God-grade fruits as a foundation, we can cultivate top-level Insect Kings very quickly as long as we want to."

"Now, facing the changing situation on the two continents, it is the perfect time for us to cultivate top-level Insect Kings."

Lord Silver Apricot said: "Fourleaf, you've seen the Secret Vault once. Which divine bestowment or God-grade fruit do you want to choose?

"Divine bestowments can be consumed little by little in the advanced warrior stage, but the primal energy within God-grade fruits is too vast,

so you can only wait until you advance to Mountain Lord before consuming them."
