1357: Chapter 595 The Rise of the Divine Race 1357: Chapter 595 The Rise of the Divine Race [Paper Crane: A handcrafted paper creation, carrying a hint of the aura from the ancestors.]

That’s it?

Mu You was utterly puzzled.

He thought the barbarian had given him so special item, but it turned out to be a very ordinary handcrafted origami, lacking any attributes.

“Rewind…”

Trading a relic for a piece of paper would be a big loss, Mu You didn’t hesitate to rewind ti and directly chose the third option.

[You took out so wild fruit you had picked up along the way and offered it as a snack to the other party.]

[“Good, good…

no need…

to starve anymore…” The barbarian joyfully took the basket of wild fruit from you and imdiately put it into his mouth, chewing eagerly.]

[After gulping down the food, the barbarian let out a satisfied belch and fumbled in his pocket for a while, then once again pulled out a ‘Paper Crane’ and stuffed it into your hand: “This is…

a souvenir…”]

[You received a gift from the ancestors—Paper Crane (1).]

emmm…

Mu You was at a loss for words and silently chose to rewind ti again.

[While the barbarian was off guard, you suddenly attacked!]

[However, with thick skin and tough flesh, your attack did no damage and only managed to enrage the barbarian.]

[The smile on the barbarian’s face instantly turned to anger.]

[“You…

not friend…

enemy!” The barbarian roared and swung his spear at you.]

[You were killed by the barbarian…]

“As expected…”

Mu You wasn’t surprised; he was just trying to see if there was an extra event for this option, but ended up simply being counter-killed as expected, so he had to rewind yet again.

Having tried all four options and finding none reliable, the only possibility of a change seed to be in the second option of giving sothing.

Could it be because what he gave wasn’t valuable enough?

Thinking it over, Mu You reselected ‘give him an item’, but this ti, he specifically chose a valuable piece to give.

[You gave the ‘Thousand Faces’ to the barbarian.]

[The barbarian is overjoyed…]

[You received a gift from the ancestors—Paper Crane (8)]

Still a Paper Crane?

Mu You frowned, wondering if this fellow’s pocket was full of Paper Cranes, with no treasure at all…

[As ti flows, you gave the freshly made Blood-sucking Velvet to the barbarian…]

[You received a gift from the ancestors—Paper Crane (5)]

…

[As ti flows…]

[You received a gift from the ancestors—Paper Crane (3)]

[As ti flows…]

[You received a gift from the ancestors—Paper Crane (7)]

…

After several rewinds and trying different items one by one, Mu You gradually discerned a pattern.

The barbarian indeed only possessed ‘Paper Cranes’, but the styles of the Paper Cranes were different, with a total of 1 to 9 types.

And depending on the value of the items you gave to the barbarian, you would receive different Paper Cranes.

The higher the value of the item given, the bigger the number on the Paper Crane.

Mu You specifically studied the Paper Cranes and still couldn’t find any practical use for them; it seed like they were truly just a ‘souvenir’.

“Or perhaps, you need to collect all the Paper Cranes to trigger an event?” Mu You instinctively thought.

Of course, this is the Real World, not the Star Spirit World designed with a premade ga world; many things follow a pattern here.

Things in the Real World often don’t make sense, and it’s very possible that even if he collected all the Paper Cranes, it would be for nothing.

However, seeing as how a living 9-Star creature was before him, it seed like a sha to miss out, so Mu You decided to do a bit more investigation.

[Looking at the No.

1 Paper Crane in your hand, this ti you didn’t rewind ti but once again took out the ‘Warm Scarf’ and handed it to the barbarian.]

The higher number Paper Cranes required more valuable items, so Mu You planned to collect the Paper Cranes one by one from No.

1 to see if he might trigger any surprises along the way.

As a result…

[Having just finished the wild fruits, the barbarian looked at the scarf you handed over and turned serious, resolutely waving his hand: “Clan Leader taught…

not to be greedy…

to friends…”]

[Having said that, the barbarian did not accept your gift and turned to leap into the jungle, quickly vanishing into the depth of the dense woods.]

“He just left like that?” Mu You wore a weird expression on his face.

He was thinking about enjoying a trading card ga, but the other party accepted only one gift and took off imdiately after the trade.

After that, Mu You controlled his character to jump around nearby, attempting to respawn the barbarian, but the other party never appeared again.

Mu You had no choice but to give up.

But he didn’t rush to continue the ga; instead, he took out the oil lamp and summoned the Lamp God to inquire about the barbarian and the Paper Cranes.

“Barbarian?”

The Lamp God seed a bit clueless upon hearing this term but then noticed the Paper Crane that Mu You was holding and, sensing the aura on it, understood everything: “Oh, you an ‘Ancestor’?”

Mu You nodded, as barbarian was just a na given by the Fool’s Ancestors, and the ga text had also specifically ntioned ‘a gift from the ancestors,’ so it seems ‘Ancestor’ is their real na.

“Who are the Ancestors?” Mu You was curious.

“Strictly speaking, the Ancestors were the first ‘civilization’ of the Sky High World, ruling it long before the Divine Race’s rise.” Lamp God explained.

“Oh?” Mu You was surprised.

So, the Divine Race was once under the rule of these barbarians?

“In the very ancient tis before Divinity and power manifested, the Divine Race was actually a very weak species, overwheld by most high-level beasts purely based on physical ability, and they didn’t even have a na.

They could only dwell in a corner of the Real World, struggling to survive.”
