I Have A Divine Tree In My Heart

Chapter 274: Second Battalion Commander, Where Is My Artillery From Italy?

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

On the evening of the second day of the fifth spirit energy tide, Lin Yao was officially registered as an adventurer at the Unyielding Silver level with 1,000 points.

At the same time, he also had 35,000 merit points.

Either type of points would allow Lin Yao to redeem cultivation resources, as well as seek the country’s help to send his family the items he had earned to ensure their safety. This was exactly what Lin Yao needed.

“Ah Yao, we have found the first mission. There is a beast hidden at *** Avenue. That beast is estimated to be at the silver level and is adept at hiding. This is a photo of what remains at the site. You will be able to earn 5,000 points by eliminating the beast…”

“5,000 points. That is a lot. It’s enough for me to redeem a gold resource.”

“This monster is good at hiding, and it’s very troublesome to find it. That’s why they are rewarding that many points. Also, the reward for eliminating a gold-level beast is going to be better than a gold resource.”

This clear, cold voice belonged to Qin Ya. Following the instructions, Lin Yao rushed toward the target while speaking to the ladies. In less than 10 minutes, he had already arrived at the destination.

He was extremely fast, as he had been flown there by the Tempest Wings. In addition, under Qin Ya’s leadership, the team of assistants consisting of the few ladies had Lin Yao’s best interest at heart. Therefore, the mission they had chosen was naturally the most ‘comfortable’ one for Lin Yao.

What was considered ‘comfortable’? Besides the strength of the beast and whether its abilities were restrainable, its distance from Lin Yao and the degree of danger were also selection criteria.

However, upon arriving, Lin Yao was shocked to discover many people searching for the beast in his area.

Although there were no crowds, with Electromagnetic Induction, he had discovered more than 30 silver powerhouses who had rushed over after receiving the mission.

‘Points are very important. Even if one’s family is in Shanghai, they can also use points in exchange for cultivation resources. Therefore, many people rushed here after finding out that a beast is in the vicinity. Sigh… Perhaps I should accept missions that are executed in the wilderness in the future. It’s fairly isolated there.’

As he was thinking, Lin Yao didn’t slow down. He shook his aching head and unlocked the brain domain limiter.

Speaking of it, until now, Lin Yao’s brain had been tortured by Electromagnetic Induction and his Ultrasonic Ears. He had received too much information suddenly, and his brain couldn’t process it completely.

Logically speaking, Lin Yao, who had been tormented by noises, should be taking a nice break tonight. It would be best for him to wait until tomorrow, after his physical development, before going out.

However, he didn’t. Of course, it was not because he was reckless and anxious. He was very confident.

“After the appearance of the Golden Warlion, I am no longer the one on the team with the strongest combat power. As for countering danger, I have the Cicada Perception—Sensing Autumn. Furthermore, I have the second level of the gene lock. After the thinking speed acceleration, I am capable of sorting out and understanding all this information.”

This was the case at the moment. After he unlocked the brain domain limiter, Lin Yao’s brain was no longer dazed and groggy. He felt as if he was in control of the entire place. Everything within a diameter of 10 kilometers had been mapped into his mind.

“Walk faster. I heard there are monsters here.” action

“It’s so scary. I already called my son and told him not to come back tonight.”

“Oo, oo, oo…” (A baby was crying.)

“Meow…”

“I want some more.”

All kinds of voices traveled into Lin Yao’s ears. Those chaotic sounds filled Lin Yao’s head with clamor. Thankfully, a human brain was capable of filtering information. After the brain domain limiter was removed, Lin Yao had more control over filtering the information.

Squinting his eyes, Lin Yao blocked all the messy noise and began to sense the silver powerhouses who had come to this place.

‘According to the intel, the beast is at the silver level. Hopefully, I can perceive it through the magnetic field.’

Everything in the world had a magnetic field. The same was true for humans, as well as living creatures. At the same time, in comparison to weaker ones, powerhouses had a stronger surrounding magnetic field due to their strength.

Some powerhouses could make the sky and earth change color or move wind and clouds just by standing. This was also one of the ways the powerhouses could influence the surrounding magnetic field.

Lin Yao’s Electromagnetic Induction was able to perceive the magnetic field. As a result, he discovered the traces of the silver powerhouses as soon as he tried to sense them.

However, after a round of searching, Lin Yao furrowed his brows tightly.

Using Electromagnetic Induction, he did discover the magnetic field of the 30-odd silver powerhouses in this area. However, through the 3D images projected via the electromagnetic waves in his brain, he saw they were all humans and not beasts.

‘I knew it wouldn’t be that simple.’

Lin Yao had expected this. If it was that easy, he wouldn’t have stood a chance. There were more than 30 silver powerhouses searching for the beast at the moment.

‘I’ll use the strategy I thought of while coming over!’

Putting on his thinking cap, Lin Yao closed his eyes and listened carefully to the conversations of some of the powerful teams.

This was not using his consciousness to eavesdrop. As long as there was movement, everything in the world would leave traces, which would then spread to heaven and earth. Lin Yao was receiving the electromagnetic signals and restoring them in his mind.

For example, say you heard someone shouting from a distance. Would that be considered eavesdropping?

Of course not.

Unlike ordinary people, Lin Yao’s hearing was… 10,000 times stronger. This was due to his ability to receive electromagnetic signals.

At the same time, Lin Yao’s Electromagnetic Induction could also receive and hear sound transmissions through vital energy or mental strength, which would not be noticed by ordinary people.

‘The only pity is that I need the super arithmetic ability to unleash this ability perfectly.’

Putting aside the issue of his arithmetic ability, like a radar, Lin Yao was able to control everything within a diameter of 10 kilometers.

“Boss, another person has come. He has thunder wings and he’s trying to pretend to be cool.”

“You’re just jealous that he is more handsome than you.”

…

“He knows how to fly. His agility is excellent. Can we poach him?”

“What are you thinking of? Didn’t you see today’s live stream? He’s a genius on the Hidden Dragons List who has a beast at the gold warlord level. How dare you consider poaching him? He might not even be willing to accept…”

“Let’s stop talking and look for it quickly. Whoever finds the beast will get the most rewards. Even those who kill it will not get that many rewards.”

…

“Old Qi, you’re only a warlord. Why did you come?”

“I’m not planning to kill it. The trouble with hidden beasts is that they are very difficult to find. As long as I can find and record a video of it, I’ll be rewarded.”

“But this is also very dangerous.”

“Sigh… I have no choice. My wife has taken our son back to her maternal home, which is located in a small city. What will happen to them if I don’t go all out?”

…

Although he blocked many messy voices, a huge amount of information was still entering Lin Yao’s mind. Fortunately, after unlocking the brain domain limiter, he was thinking at lightning speed. Therefore, he could grasp the meaning of the information very quickly.

Moreover, Lin Yao tried his best to focus on those powerhouses—30 silver warlords and one gold warlord. He was coping fine after unlocking the brain domain limiter.

‘A gold warlord is also here. There are too many powerhouses in Shanghai. I have to try my best to find a way to go to the wild.’

His super arithmetic ability gave Lin Yao some time to think about other matters while he received this information.

However, his attention was still on the conversations of those powerhouses. At the same time, he was also watching them through the 3D images in his mind.

He was listening to the information of others and observing their movements instead of searching for the beast directly. He had thought of this with the Light-Bulb Moment while pondering how to find the beast on his way here.

‘In Shanghai, freaks do not pose any danger during the day. Only these beasts will be out for activities. However, ordinary beasts will be attacked and killed by powerhouses as soon as they appear. Those who survive are beasts with concealment abilities, which are very difficult to find… It is also because most of the military personnel, armed police, and powerhouses in Shanghai have been sent elsewhere to deal with the external crisis that these beasts have survived until now.

‘Beasts who can conceal themselves are very difficult to find, but there is no shortage of powerhouses amongst humans. Someone will definitely be able to get some clues. I’ve come a little late, but Electromagnetic Induction enables me to search for clues without making much effort.’

While thinking, Lin Yao also focused his attention on the gold warlord. He was the strongest one present and had the greatest chance of locating the beast.

That gold warlord also had teammates who knew who Lin Yao was. After discovering that Lin Yao had come, some of the team members felt somewhat anxious.

“Here comes another one. He’s a genius on the Hidden Dragons List. Captain, we have to speed up. These geniuses are monsters.”

“It’s okay. The main reason we took on this mission is because this monster is near our home. If others find it, so be it. The sooner it is found, the safer it will be for our family.”

Compared to his teammates, the gold warlord, who was leading the team, was more gracious. Nevertheless, he also became more careful during his search. Despite his words, he obviously did not want to become a backdrop for other geniuses if possible.

At the same time, upon seeing the teammate being so afraid of Lin Yao, one of the women on the team was somewhat dissatisfied. “Zhang Kuang, why are you boosting other people’s morale? A genius on the Hidden Dragons List? Big deal! Our captain is a gold warlord, and we got here an hour earlier than him. We won’t fail no matter what!”

She obviously had positive feelings for the captain. Upon hearing her side with the captain, Zhang Kuang opened his mouth but didn’t utter a word in the end.

However, he soon exclaimed in shock, “That guy is coming!”

Lin Yao was indeed nearing them. Although he had arrived less than 10 seconds ago, he could perceive the words and information of the group of powerhouses and observe their activities with Electromagnetic Induction. Afterward, he would process them with his enhanced arithmetic ability due to the thinking speed acceleration. Within a very short time, through comparative analysis, Lin Yao had already deduced the area where the beast carried out most of its activities.

That gold warlord was fairly strong, and the area he was searching was the closest to the beast.

However, Lin Yao’s arrival had also made that woman unhappy.

“He followed us directly without even looking at the traces on the site…”

She was mocking Lin Yao for freeloading on their team’s effort and stealing the fruit of their labor.

However, her voice halted before she could finish her words. The captain, who had wanted to dissuade her from talking, also paused.

The reason they paused was because a striking electric light was flashing on the fingertip of Lin Yao, who was soaring in the air.

“Is he… launching an attack?”

“Impossible. We didn’t manage to find the beast after an hour of searching. How could he possibly have found the target after arriving less than half a minute ago?”

“It is absolutely impossible. This should be an attempt to find the beast through an attack.”

The way Lin Yao had arrived was too eye-catching, so more than one person had been paying attention to him. Upon seeing him flashing a bright electric light on his fingertip after arriving less than half a minute ago, some of them assumed that the worst had happened.

They had searched for several hours or even half a day but found nothing. Lin Yao had only arrived a moment ago, but he seemed to have found the target. They found it hard to accept the huge gap between them and Lin Yao. One by one, they shook their heads and vetoed their inner thoughts.

Unfortunately, facts would not change no matter how reluctant they were to accept this.

The electric light at Lin Yao’s fingertips became stronger and brighter. Boom! After one breath of time, the sound of the air exploding came from Lin Yao’s palm. That was a sonic boom.

The moment the air exploded, a tungsten alloy pellet whizzed past, forming a beam of electric light in the air. Like a laser, it instantly shot 800 meters away.
