Chapter 468: Chapter 212: Vault Guardian, New Divine Grace GET√_1

"Can I actually choose?"

Lin Baici was surprised.

"The Security Bureau won’t let anyone down; the greater your contribution, the better the rewards you’ll get!"

Xia Hongmian sat on the sofa opposite Lin Baici, sizing up the young man.

She had just received a report from her subordinates and knew that Lin Baici had caught a special ’Taboo Item’; although she hadn’t seen it with her own eyes, she knew what it was!

So she was very curious.

Why did this young man always encounter such special rule contamination?

The last time it was a stray dog, and this time the human model; strictly speaking, because a god appeared at the provincial museum’s God’s Ruins, it was also special.

A normal God Hunter encountering such an event once might have been killed, but Lin Baici did good, having survived three times, wholly and unscathed.

It couldn’t be that he had some sort of physique that attracted gods, could it?

"What are the rewards?"

Lin Baici took a sip of coffee, the bitter taste twirling on the tip of his tongue before it turned into full-bodied fragrance.

Delicious!

[Sourced from coffee beans in a ten-year-old God’s Ruins, hand-ground, drinking a cup replenishes some Divine Power and maintains vigor.]

[After three cups, even without sleep for the whole night, you won’t feel tired!]

"People usually choose Meteorite Coins, which can be given to you based on your contribution amount immediately,"

Xia Hongmian explained: "Then there are Taboo Items and Divine Grace, which must be accumulated through contributions before they can be obtained. However, Divine Grace is not easy to preserve and is scarce, so it’s quite expensive!"

"Taboo Items are more dangerous; improper containment could lead to contamination and harm to the possessor, but Taboo Items, whether sold on the black market or used for oneself, are quite flexible!"

Divine Grace is good, but for some God Hunters, it might not be as valuable as Taboo Items.

For example, Lin Baici’s Overlord’s Unarmoring, a powerful Armor Breaking Technique, is of little value to some God Hunters who hardly enter the God’s Ruins and do clerical work, thus the Divine Grace is not very valuable for them.

Just like Hua Yue Yu who had absorbed Divine Grace, already a God Hunter, if she weren’t working as a broadcaster and applied for a job at the Security Bureau, there would be a more than 90% chance of getting hired, but the work would also be clerical or logistical.

The Jiuzhou Security Bureau does not force staff to enter God’s Ruins.

"I want Divine Grace!"

Lin Baici was succinct.

As for Taboo Items, he had many of them and was thinking of selling a few that were completely useless to him; he felt that Divine Grace was the real deal, something that could be used for a lifetime.

"With your current contribution, you can get a non-combat type of Divine Grace!"

Xia Hongmian stood up, went back to her desk, took out a file from the drawer, tossed it casually, and the file floated towards Lin Baici as if it were in a space station.

This was obviously the power of some Divine Grace.

Lin Baici caught it and flipped through it.

The file listed various types of Divine Grace and their effects.

Frogman’s Gland, once absorbed, while not enabling underwater breathing, greatly increases swimming speed, and the skin undergoes frogman transformation, so you no longer have to worry about skin erosion from soaking in the bath for an extended time.

Rosemary Essence, once activated, the body emits a captivating fragrance that attracts bees and butterflies, making honey theft a breeze without fearing bee stings.

This Divine Grace provides a significant boost for floriculturists and beekeepers.

Natural Illumination, once activated, the eyes emit a warm glow. When these eyes gaze at plants, the growth rate of the plants accelerates.

...

Lin Baici quickly browsed, the list containing some rare and odd Divine Graces!

"See anything you want?"

Xia Hongmian asked with a smile.

"No!"

Lin Baici shook his head; he wanted combat-type Divine Grace.

"You’ve performed really well recently, especially this time, catching a very rare creature; I will decide to reward you with a combat-type Divine Grace!"

Xia Hongmian stood up: "Let’s go!"

Hearing her tone, ’I will decide’, it sounded as if the Security Bureau was her own personal domain.

Lin Baici didn’t know that in the Haijing branch, even though Xia Hongmian was only the vice-director, she was actually the first in real power.

Anyone who disagreed, Xia Hongmian could beat into submission.

Lin Baici followed Xia Hongmian down the corridor, entered an elevator, and then went straight down to the eighteenth sub-level.

The elevator doors opened to a corridor lined with marble walls, and thirty meters directly opposite was a stone gate covered in moss.

A horizontal crevice marred the surface of the Stone Gate.

Gurgle!

As Lin Baici looked at the stone gate, his stomach grumbled, and a sense of hunger emerged.

Xia Hongmian walked forward.

Lin Baici followed.

Just as the two stepped out of the elevator and onto the corridor, the crevice, like a giant awakening and opening its eyes, revealed a pitch-black eyeball.

Whoosh!

The eyeball irregularly moved, scanning the surroundings before focusing on Xia Hongmian.

"Sex!"

"Age!"

"Name!"

A sharp voice echoed in the corridor as if the Death God had placed his scythe on Xia Hongmian’s neck, ready to behead her should she answer incorrectly.

Lin Baici stared at the eyeball, feeling as though he was gazing into a black hole, unable to look away.

Gurgle!

Lin Baici’s hunger intensified.

He didn’t see skeletal arms reaching up from the ground, gripping Xia Hongmian’s feet, ready to drag her into hell if she answered incorrectly.

"Male!"

"62!"

"Mian Hongxia!"
