Chapter 271 - 271: The Treasure
It felt a bit weird that he had to run his hands through the body of a dead man, and even more so since the body didn't even have a head.
But there was nothing he could do about it, he had to quickly take care of this matter, as he quickly found the space ring of the old man.
Without losing time he immediately erased the spirit sense of the old man from the space ring and placed his own as he took ownership of the ring.
There were quite a few things inside the space ring, there was a training technique, a cultivation technique, gold, money cash, some diamonds, clothes, pills, Viagra, and finally a black stone.
Looking at all that stuff, Eric had to say that he was a bit surprised by finding that Viagra was in there, after all, he thought that this guy shouldn't have problems with awakening his weapon.
But what was most surprising was that Viagra was effective even for someone at the level of the old man, that was clearly around 80 or something.
Well anyway it wasn't like Eric had a need for that, but suddenly a weird thought passed through his mind, what about that Immortal World.
Just imagine if they didn't have something like that, and he had full ownership of that thing in there, he would become a magnate in there.
But that was only just a stupid dream that was immediately destroyed the moment his eyes landed on that black stone inside.
He couldn't believe his eyes, it wasn't possible! Could his luck be that good? He would have never thought that he would come across something like this by coincidence.
It was just impossible to happen under normal circumstances. As he felt that the chances of his plans succeeding had just doubled at the least.
Why?
Well to explain that he had to remember the only anomaly of the Immortal World taking a normal leveler from Earth in his previous life.
He was the only person that didn't depend on his system to grow stronger but in some other anomaly, a dead dragon egg.
Normally a dragon egg would be really big, enough to fit a grown-up man inside it, but that was when the egg was formed under normal conditions.
There was another way besides normal fertilization that a dragon egg could be born, and that was when the blood of a male dragon merged perfectly with the blood of a female dragon.
In this case, the egg would be really small, no bigger than a chicken egg, but the formed dragon would have the combined characteristics of the two parents, and their knowledge also.
Dragons were able to cultivate and grow stronger like humans, as they slowly wondered more and more about the Dao of life, and the world around them.
It wasn't a surprise that each being needed great knowledge, and deepening in cultivation in order to grow their connection to the world, Qi, and their existence.
So just how much of a cheat existence would be a dragon born out of such a connection, as he would have his parents combined characteristics and their knowledge.
In the least, his road towards his parent's realm was already paved for him, and he only needed to run towards the finish line, and gather energy.
It was the same as being just born and having the knowledge of a Bachelor's degree in you, as long as you were able to walk, talk, and act you would be able to graduate.
It seemed like a stupid claim to say that real mythical creatures like dragons existed when Eric hadn't truly seen them.
But he had seen what happened with that special guy. He had been a middle eastern guy, who had united the whole middle east under his banner.
That was without the help of the system to grow stronger, and with the interference of those guys with systems.
He had clearly become the God of the Middle East, as far as Eric was concerned, and he was also the first person to have been proclaimed by the Immortal World publicly.
Not only that but there were rumors that those who took him away from Earth, said that he would be the son-in-law of a big power in the Immortal World.
There were a lot of people who thought that he was going to be just a puppet son-in-law but that didn't matter as from now on he would be living and eating with Gods, and Goddesses.
That good luck of his was only due to this little black stone-looking thing, which was the dead egg of such an abnormal dragon.
It was a true pity that the dragon inside was dead, but this egg still held extreme value, as it contained inside the blood of two dragons, and their knowledge on Dao.
That guy had been able to grow that strong, and that was important because he had this blood inside him.
The people from the Immortal World took him there just because of this bloodline, they wanted to add the blood of the dragon in their bloodline.
He didn't know, or understand much about the Immortal World out there, as to him it was still beyond reach, but he guessed that dragons and dragon blood shouldn't be that easy found there either.
For that reason, the importance of this dead dragon egg could easily be understood, and as if that wasn't enough, he saw an announcement in his Legacy System's window!
Warning!!! ???, ??? egg combination noticed! The system opens the trade feature for the Host.
Legacy System offers 5 Billion SP points to the Host for the egg! YES/NO
Looking at those lines Eric felt like he had just received the shock of his life. It was beyond his expectations or imagination.
Forgetting about the fact that his usually quiet system had suddenly opened a new feature for him or the fact that this egg was the combination of a ??? and ???.
He couldn't believe that his Legacy System was offering him 5 Billion SP points for the dead dragon egg.
He felt like he was watching some kind of dream or something. It couldn't be possible, even in his best dreams, or illusions hadn't he thought of having that number of SP points available to him.
His hands couldn't move at the sight of that notice, he was so excited that his body and his nerves weren't able to answer to him.
It was just that stupidly impossible for him. He wasn't able to read anything else besides that number of zeros behind that 5 at the offer.
Just imagine how much he could make out of those 5 Billion SP points, he felt like his plans would proceed forwards by at least 100 hundred times.
As he was completely awestruck at that moment, suddenly he was scared by the screaming voice of his new kitten,
"Master, are you, all right?"
Since he had been so lost in his stupor and excitement, her voice startled him, as his body reacted unconsciously, and he selected 'NO' from the opened window, forfeiting the 5 Billion SP points.
'WAAAHHHH~!'
When he finally recollected himself and was able to understand what he had just done, he immediately released the scream of an enraged man, like he was about to engulf the whole world.
He couldn't believe that he had done something like this, it was just impossible, he had all the intention of accepting that offer.
It was 5 Billion SP points for the love of God, he couldn't even imagine how much he would need to work in order to come across something like that.
It was just simply impossible, and unforgivable, as he seemed like he wanted to lose his voice screaming, and howling in rage.
Understanding that she had done something wrong the kitten, but not only, totally shut her mouth, afraid of what was waiting for her.
Seeing how pissed off, and enraged her Master sounded she understood that she might have just made the mistake of her lifetime.
It felt like death would be just an easy way out for her, as she was preparing to kill herself before her Master did, but she still wanted to look at his face for one last time.
She didn't understand why, but she felt like she would be just an evil ghost if he didn't do so, as she left her hiding, and started walking towards him with heavy steps.
As for Eric, he seemed to have lost his mind at that moment. He was angry, and enraged, he had just lost the opportunity of his lifetime.
Even though this was just a big opportunity that he had come across by pure luck and coincidence, he felt like he had just killed his future with his own hands.
5 Billion SP points!
It was something that he wasn't even able to think about, how many people would he have to kill, or how many missions would he have to complete in order to come across that many SP points.
He had had the opportunity of having that many SP points in his hands, and just because of his startle he had thrown them away to keep a useless egg, that he didn't even know how to use.
How could he be not angry at himself, at that tyrannical bi*tch for startling him, for this fu*cked up a situation where he lost such a precious thing.
It was her fault, it was that bi*tch's fault that something like this had happened, and he couldn't help but want to kill her with his own hands, and enjoy her last moments as he did so.
He had completely lost his mind at that moment when he heard another sound from his Legacy System!!!
