Cheng Shen, who was holding the potential potion formula, suddenly fell into a dilemma.

Learn by yourself,

Or train another pharmacist?

If it is training, Cheng Shen must consider an issue that cannot be ignored.

talent.

Recruited units all have talent growth limits.

This concept,

He only learned about it after he obtained this formula.

Stimulating potential means liberating a creature's talent potential to the greatest extent. However, if the unit's talent is poor and its potential is limited, even the highest-level potential potion cannot improve its strength at all.

The potential potion formula itself has no usage restrictions.

But to refine each of these potions, there are basic skill level requirements.

If he trains a pharmacist, he will eventually be unable to break through to high-level pharmaceutical skills due to talent issues.

Then this extraordinary formula is completely wasted.

“It’s safest to learn on your own.”

Cheng Shen thought.

Although he was also unsure whether he had the talent to refine potions, one thing was that each survivor gained an extra skill point every time he leveled up.

This allows him to directly upgrade his skill level regardless of talent restrictions.

There is no doubt about it.

This is also one of the cheats the system opens for survivors.

I have made a decision in my heart.

Cheng Shen decisively used this potion formula.

[You understand it—potential potion! 】

【You understand--pharmaceuticals!】

…

Complex information suddenly appeared in Cheng Shen's mind, and he automatically mastered level 1 pharmaceutical technology.

It's like knowledge engraved in your brain from birth.

Natural and wonderful.

Cheng Shen sighed and put the matter aside.

"The guaranteed reward doesn't matter, as long as it's useful."

he said to himself.

It also seems to be hinting at the secret treasure box of the final origin.

open!

Bang!

The light pillar rising from the ground showed a mysterious and deep rose-red color.

Straight to the sky.

Another legend!

Cheng Shen was shocked.

The system prompt sound came next to my ear.

[Obtain: Source of Life Stone!]

…

Strange green fluorescence filled the air, and an irregular-shaped crystal floated quietly. This crystal was about the size of a goose egg, with distinct lines intertwined inside it, forming a green seedling.

The moment it appeared, Cheng Shen felt as if everything in this area suddenly "came alive". It was a very strange feeling, as if this dead and gloomy world was gradually coming to life.

This is not an illusion.

Cheng Shen opened his natural ability with deep feeling.

Suddenly, he saw that the lifeless elemental energy floating in the air was gradually glowing brightly after getting close to the crystal.

"The world is changing."

Cheng Shen was surprised to find out.

As a result, the surrounding light became brighter, the air was no longer turbid, and patches of green buds even emerged from the soil on the ground.

He felt that even his breathing became much easier.

"What amazing life energy."

Cheng Shen stepped forward and reached out to catch the crystal. The rich green fluorescence immediately attached to his arm, like a group of active and warm life elves, helping him remove the sinister aura accumulated in his body.

He was being cured by strange erosion in the ruins.

However, the power of this crystal is obviously not able to solve the two cursed forces that have the most profound impact on him.

Cheng Shen looked at its properties.

【Source Stone of Life】

【gem】

[Level: Legend]

[Explanation: Gemstones containing a trace of the power of the origin of life can be embedded in equipment to give it additional life recovery properties]

…

After seeing its properties clearly, Cheng Shen's eyes froze for a moment, and then a hint of disbelief emerged.

"Inlaid with gems?"

There was some disappointment in his tone.

Inlays are one-time consumable props, and their value is lower than forging materials of the same level.

After all, forging materials can also be used to craft equipment.

The inlays, at best, can only serve as the icing on the cake.

The improvement effect is limited.

Moreover, when it comes to inlaying, it must at least be legendary equipment of the same level to be able to withstand this legendary gem.

It was of no use to him at all.

Undoubtedly, I was extremely exhausted when I opened the box this time...

"wrong."

Cheng Shen looked at this goose egg-sized legendary gem, and a bright light suddenly flashed in his mind.

Its value is more than just a set of gems!

The sapling in the crystal stone, at this moment, showed a dense arrangement of elements in his vision with his innate ability activated.

This is a rune!

And it’s a super-level life talisman with an unknown level!

Cheng Shen's eyes revealed a strange color.

He actually couldn't understand the structure of this rune.

If the energy and fireball runes he just mastered can be regarded as a single word, then this high-level life rune is like an article written by countless words, extremely complicated.

Just watch.

Cheng Shen couldn't even find an angle to analyze it.

However, this also means that the effect of this life rune will be very powerful.

Once mastered, he will gain an unimaginable ability.

"A... ability that can make this world come alive again."

Cheng Shen whispered inexplicably.

At the wonderful moment when he had just come into contact with the concept of runes, he pulled this thing out of the treasure chest. It was obvious that this was not a coincidence. It was probably because he accidentally triggered the prerequisites of a certain guidance mechanism.

And 80% of it is related to his legendary talent.

Cheng Shen suddenly felt something.

If the entire world is a huge game formed by the interweaving and combination of countless plot lines, there is no doubt that he has now become the protagonist of one of the more important plot lines.
