1230: Chapter 1216: Fragnt of Wisdom 1230: Chapter 1216: Fragnt of Wisdom [A suprely magnificent victory…
A dazzling triumph against all odds in a battle of despairing strength!]
[Now calculating the strength of both sides, data is unquantifiable, taking the upper limit….1:999 (upper limit), this is an extrely brilliant victory of the weak over the strong!]
[Ding, congratulations to the Host, a brilliant victory, rated as utterly perfect!
The life offerings collected during the ceremony will be purified and sacrificed, conferring extra boosts to your Occupational Traits and attributes.
Please check for yourself.]
When this series of prompts appeared on Lu Ping’an’s system panel, he felt joy mixed with a slight sense of relief.
“The War Ceremony verdict, there was no way I could win, could there…”
Perhaps if Lu Ping’an had chosen to confront the enemy head-on, tragedy would have been his only destiny.
[You have obtained the spoils of war ‘Skeleton of Thousand Eyes (unknown tier)’]
What lay before Lu Ping’an was a black skull, adorned with hundreds of dried-up eyeballs of varying sizes, looking particularly unsettling.
Lu Ping’an casually tossed it, embedding it into the War Flag.
[You have obtained the War Trait, Courage in Desperation (Upper Silver): After you declare war, your warriors can receive courage enhancents to confront various types of fears.
The more dire the situation, the more your call can invoke their courage to fight to the death.
Note: This ability will improve in tandem with the soldiers’ Professional Advancent.]
This Trait, Lu Ping’an had heard of before, often rewarded only in cases where one faced an opponent deed unbeatable and yet erged victorious…
Although it was a gift from the Warlord, it was indeed quite rare.
[You have obtained the War Trait, Master of Corruption (Silver Mid-position): When entering a state of war, the ‘corrosive’ attacks of your soldiers will receive Piercing enhancents to their defense.]
[You have obtained the War Trait…]
The Warlord was generous.
Through this war, Lu Ping’an obtained a total of six war Traits, and although only two of the Silver-tier had notable effects, the Warlord normally grew stronger with each battle.
Typically, a power would nurture a “War Commander” with the flesh and life of friend and foe alike…..
Most of the ti it would be superfluous, but in a true war environnt, it’s best to have one.
However, reality differs from gas, and the opportunity to be involved in a war is considerably rare….
Before this, the small skirmishes Lu Ping’an had partaken in had barely provided him any War Traits; this ti, he had had his fill.
In theory, if Lu Ping’an worshipped a War Deity, perhaps sacrificing to it before war could result in additional gains, including Divine Grace…
but Lu Ping’an seed to have no such plans.
“…..Let’s begin.”
And under Lu Ping’an’s watchful eyes, the real spoils of war began to be acquired.
The stone was once again produced and placed next to the huge corpse.
The next mont, a large amount of black shadows seeped out from the corpse, then flowed into the black stone.
Several minutes later, everything returned to calm, but this ti, the massive monster’s corpse began to disintegrate…
Lu Ping’an took in a breath of cold air, feeling sowhat afraid…
not that he was worried about the integrity of the creature, but because he saw Zhi Xi looking regretfully at the pieces of at on the plate, as the parts that had just been carved out turned to ashes as well.
“I’m not going to eat it….
I won’t eat anything you bring for the next half month.”
Lu Ping’an ignored the disappointed look from behind him and focused on the stele in front of him.
[Fragnt of Wisdom’s Fountain Stele A (unknown tier): One of the fragnts of an ‘Authority of Wisdom’ from a certain world.]
The description was becoming simpler, but the power contained within was visible to the naked eye.
[Does the Host want to have it absorbed by the courtyard?
Estimated absorption ti is fifty-six hours (the courtyard will enter dormant status for at least ten hours), and will provide feedback with two rule buildings (unknown tier) and break down to obtain 20,000 life-points.]
The courtyard directly raised the acquisition price significantly, and Lu Ping’an was still hesitating…
[Note: If you hold this fragnt, you will be attracted and resonate with other similar fragnts.]
[Note: The value of the fragnt is extrely high, and its bearers will be actively sought out by deities.]
[Note: Fragnts of Wisdom have been sensed in the Mortal World, three in number.
After Fusion, you can expand the search range and shield the fluctuation of your own fragnts.]
So it’s a threat now, it seems there’s no need to hesitate anymore.
“Absorb it…
and while you’re at it, give our people a break.”

After the war ended, it was ti to invite those villagers back…
At this point, Lu Ping’an and his group encountered so trouble.
“They don’t want to co back?
Why?”
“They’re worried that if they co back, you’ll ask them to return the money.”
Lu Ping’an opened his mouth, unsure of what to say.
“Didn’t you explain the current situation?
I’m not going to ask them to return the money…”
“We did, but they don’t believe us.”
Alright, too realistic, Lu Ping’an sighed and decided not to bother with it.
But on second thought, the village was so contaminated now that it indeed seed unsuitable for mortals to live in.
The monster might have turned to ash, but who knows how much of its “Green Water” was left, and whether so Spider Monkeys had managed to survive.
“Go, exterminate them all…”
Lu Ping’an once again released the Wolf pack, as he had no intention of allowing these Spider Monkeys to live.
If they indeed beca a new Intelligent Race, a vengeful Newborn Intelligent Species…
It was better to eradicate them thoroughly before such trouble arose.
And the course of events seed to validate Lu Ping’an’s estimation.
Ultimately, the Assassins and the Wolf pack completed all their tasks, causing the Spider Monkeys of Ben Island to go completely extinct.
But considering there were at least two Fragnts of Wisdom left…
the real trouble might have just begun.
“It wasn’t just fragnts of Wisdom that fell, but hundreds of teors; worrying about that is premature…”
The world was likely destined for chaos.
“Since we’re idle anyway, let’s help with the reconstruction…”
People on Lu Ping’an’s side had been sent out of the courtyard, and since they were idle, they took a two-day break and also reconstructed the village.
During this process, they even witnessed another teor Shower.
But this ti, the situation was slightly eerie; Lu Ping’an didn’t feel the sense of “lancholy” as before, as if it was neither a Godfall nor the fall of “fragnts.”
“…Big Cat?”
Lu Ping’an inquired with his own little helper, but this ti, he received no answer.
As the AI of the courtyard, she had naturally entered sleep too, waiting for the “system upgrade.”
And without the courtyard, Lu felt a subtle sense of independence and loneliness…
It had been a long ti since he’d experienced the quiet without soone nagging by his ear.
But happiness is always fleeting; the ti for the system upgrade passed in the blink of an eye.
When the ti finally ca, just as the courtyard’s door was restored, Lu Ping’an was the first to enter.
Only to be greeted with a huge “surprise” at first glance…
“Chris?
You have a body now?!”
