Chapter 459: Completion! Cherokee’s sacrifice!

Translator: - - Editor: - -

After slaying Son Blindcost, its body curled up and remained slightly convulsing on the ground. Right now, those 23 hearts could still be seen shrinking rapidly, while bathing in the fluids of the golden altar. They were like sweets or salt, swiftly dissolving into nothingness.

It was clear; to accomplish the Golden Side Mission ‘Cherokee’s sacrifice’, one had to wait for these hearts to completely dissolve atop this altar! Consecutively, that erected pandora crystal concave mirror vaporized into the air. Still, the beam it casted continued glowing brighter and brighter, shining gently onto the region of unfathomable bottom of the lake.

Eventually, both hearts and mirror disappeared from sight. Before they disappeared, the clear lake had become suffused with violet rays. Rays that were mysterious, dignified and solemn; causing one to feel an involuntary delusion, to kneel and worship.

Gradually, 2-3 strips of long arthropod branches could be seen drifting along the sparkling water, amidst the emulsion of violet rays beneath the clear lake surface. Gentle violet rays drifted along with it, subconsciously impressing a dignified and soothing sensation on one’s heart. The subtle psychological urging to kneel and bow was intense; apart from old Mourbo, the rest of the na'vi warriors unanimously knelt down with fear and trembling, as they hastily pressed their heads to the ground.

Only old Mourbo’s face flushed with horror, as his body shivered violently. He muttered to himself.

“The Tree of Souls in the water! This is the Tree of Souls in the water!!”

He suddenly dashed frantically towards his clansmen, as he kicked them with rage and anger.

“Hurry and get up. Nobody is to kneel, nobody is to worship here. Do you guys wish to turn corrupted?”

Upon hearing old Mourbo’s rebuke, all doubts in Sheyan’s heart dissipated; it was as though a bead had found its stringing thread. Like a pedigree of events, everything was completely deciphered!

But at this moment, he had no time to ponder further. With the assimilation of those 23 hearts on the altar, the amounts of violet branches in the lake were multiplying increasingly. Originally crystal clear and transparent, the lake now hosted thousands of violet strings had branched out like a willow tree; sending ripples throughout the lake. It was majestical and enchanting sight to behold.

Simultaneously, the delayed notification of the nightmare imprint finally arrived.

When the notification reached here, it paused for awhile. Sheyan shared the mission news to his party, having zero notions of hiding it for himself. When misgivings started appearing within the trio, the notification swiftly continued.

[ Because your mission completion score is ‘Horrendous’, only 2 unique Golden Side Mission options will appear out of the reward options available. ]

[ *For example, amongst the 8 options, only 2 options will be rewards that are unique from the Golden Side Mission. If score is higher, then more options will be available, like 3 unique options or 4. ]

(TN:* I took this paragraph from the next chap. The author wasn’t clear writing in this chap, and he made a special note (this paragraph) to clarify it in the next chap. So figured it would be more relevant to place it here.)

Observing the list of descriptions, the trio simultaneously turned blank. It could be said amongst all 7 options, not a single one would be classified as useless! Every single option was invaluable. That ‘Inniste Steroid Implanting Device’ may appear rather limited, but please note, its bonus was in percentage! Moreover, it wouldn’t occupy any equipment slot. In the latter stages after being a Growth-hunter or other advanced stages, that 15% may turn into an absolutely terrifying superiority.

At present, Mcdh was also rather curious about the mission rewards of the Golden Side Mission. Sheyan acknowledged that without his otherworldly gunshot, the chances of accomplishing this mission would truly be ambiguous. Therefore, he couldn’t reject and displayed the list of rewards for Mcdh’s viewing pleasure.

Though Mcdh was a Growth-hunter, upon seeing such abundant rewards, he too couldn’t help clicking his tongue in wonder. After pondering he spoke to Sheyan.

“The realm has strict regulations on the confidentiality of information, I cannot tell you much. However, if I were you, I would definitely consider those free attribute points! Right, you should’ve already attained the bonus when reaching pure 20 points attribute right?”

Mcdh’s spoken sentence carried a trace of vagueness, and profound flavour to it. After Sheyan listened, his heart stirred and he stared deeply into Mcdh’s eyes. Then, he nodded earnestly and expressed his gratitude.

“I got it, many thanks.”

Mcdh roared out with laughter. Following that, Sheyan directly selected option A – 10+1 free attribute points! Adding this to the 8* free attribute points he previously acquired, his current unallocated free attribute points had reached a terrifying 19 points! Nevertheless, Sheyan didn’t harbour any ideas of allocating his free attribute points yet.

(TN:*this was Sheyan’s reward for completing the Great leonopteryx skull mission back in ch 79 of this vol.)

Currently, he held some queries in his heart, and decided to pursue them after returning. Moreover upon returning, it was imminent his military rank would be promoted. Therefore, with a sufficient rank, he would be able to access more confidential information. If his few queries could receive a satisfactory answer, then adding the points in the future would be more purposeful. It was better than adding while clueless.

Since Sheyan had affirmed his determination, he then beckoned to Reef and Mogensha.

“We went through fire and water together for this Golden Side Mission, you guys select the remaining 2 options as your dividends!”

Reef and Mogensha were both stunned.

“Boss? Could it be you don’t require that ‘Alkelu High-energy Injection’ ?”
