Chapter 702 - 702 Epic
702 Epic-Tier Lord Talent—Dark Walker (2)
Especially as his territory increased, he needed more and more such talents with strong organizational and leadership abilities.
As for Dragon Lady Lord and the others, they were undoubtedly such top talents.
Or rather…
Every Lord of All Races was either a talented person or a worker with experience from the relevant organizations.
It was just that the Dragon Lady Lord and the others were the best among them.
Zhou Zhou called Atley over and asked her to find the professional statue of the Dark Walker.
Half an hour later, Atley came back.
“Your Majesty, we’ve found it.” Atley said respectfully.
“Take me there.” Zhou Zhou stood up.
“Yes, Your Majesty.” Then, the two of them left the place one after another.
A moment later…
Zhou Zhou stood in front of a statue.
This statue was only as tall as a person.
He wore a black robe and carried a medicine basket on his back. He held a walking stick in his hand and walked forward. He looked ordinary and did not feel anything special.
“This is the Dark Walker’s class advancement statue?”
Zhou Zhou looked at the statue in disbelief.
It was a talent creation with an Epic-Tier Lord Talent after all. Why did it look worse than a statue at a roadside stall?
Moreover, this statue appeared in a very remote place.
It was as if it was afraid that others would notice it.
He didn’t think too much about it and thought about the class change.
“Determined to protect Normal life forms…”
Zhou Zhou thought for a moment and his expression gradually turned solemn.
“I, Zhou Zhou, was originally just one of the many living beings.”
“Of course I won’t forget my roots.”
“I will always abide by the will of the Dark Walker and protect my Subjects.” He said.
He definitely loved his Subject and would even think of ways to nurture them.
They could spend as much manpower, financial resources, and material resources as they wanted.
However, for those who resented him, hated him, and even wanted to destroy him, why should he care if the other party was dead or alive?
After he finished speaking, he quietly looked at the statue of the Dark Walker.
10 seconds later, a black light flew out of the statue of the Dark Walker and flew towards Zhou Zhou.
Zhou Zhou endured it and did not move, allowing the black light to fly into his glabella.
He felt some Class inheritance information appear in his mind.
This included the origins of the Dark Walkers, history, famous Professionals, Achievement, and the most important method of creating the black membrane, Demon Vanquishing Powder, Demon Concealment Ointment, and Sacred Redemption Medicine…
Soon, Zhou Zhou had completely absorbed all the inheritance of this Class.
After he came back to his senses, he could not help but sigh faintly.
“There are so few Class inheritances…”
“Blacksmiths have more skills than you…”
While that was true, Zhou Zhou, who had already become a Dark Walker and received the inheritance of the Dark Walker, already knew why there were so few inheritances of this Class.
It was simple, it was just that its development time was too short.
Moreover…
The disadvantages of its previous Class also made very few people willing to take on this profession.
“The first Dark Walker developed the special power of the black membrane, which ignores the corrosion of the Scarlet Fog, by devouring the corpse of the fog monster and supplementing it with some digestive secret medicine.”
“But it’s not without a price.”
“The price was…”
“Dark Walkers who have mastered the Black Membrane technique will lose control of their bodies as the number of times they use the black membrane increases. They will become uglier and uglier, less and less like ordinary life forms, more and more like fog monsters.”
“In the end, they would almost 100% become a new fog monster.”
“That’s exactly why every Dark Walker would usually choose to hide their figure in a black robe to prevent others from seeing their abnormality.”
“When one is about to lose control of their consciousness and become a fog monster, the Dark Walker will choose to leave the gathering place of life forms and head to the final destination alone. Then, he will commit suicide and end his life.”
“The fate of every Dark Walker is almost always this tragic.”
“This is the price of obtaining the power of the fog.”
“That’s why even the Dark Walker himself is unwilling to pass down this profession.”
“In addition, after the Dark Walkers saw that the Extraordinaires had taken action and protected the living beings of the high continent, they felt that their Class was redundant, so they were even more unwilling to leave legacies behind for their Class.”
“Hence, in less than a hundred years, this profession disappeared.”
Zhou Zhou fell silent.
Only now did he know the weight of the Dark Walker profession.
This profession had clearly saved countless life forms when it was born.
However, because of this act of saving life forms, they bore the curse of fate. In the end, they all embarked on self-destruction, not even leaving their names behind.
As for why they did not leave behind the recipes for the Demon Vanquishing Powder, Demon Concealment Ointment, and Sacred Redemption Medicine when they self-destructed, Zhou Zhou only found out after becoming a Dark Walker.
This was because the materials for making the Demon Vanquishing Powder, Demon Concealment Ointment, and Sacred Redemption Medicine all required a little bit of the Dark Walker’s own blood as the medicinal catalyst. Only then could these three divine medicines be effective.
Otherwise, their effects were no different from poison.
Even when using these three potions, he needed the Dark Walker to activate them with the power of the Black Membrane. Otherwise, he would not be able to use these three potions.
It was precisely because of these two reasons that the Dark Walker did not leave behind the formulas for the three potions.
Or rather…
They were left behind but no one could discover their value, and in the end, they gradually declined.
Zhou Zhou thought for a moment and took out a piece of paper. Then, he wrote down all the herbs needed for the potions and handed it to Atley.
Atley took it and looked at it.
She realized that the medicinal herbs inside were all unqualified medicinal herbs.
What did it mean to be unqualified?
They were ordinary herbs that were even inferior to Black Iron-Tier herbs.
A medicinal herb of this level could be said that it was everywhere and was not valuable at all in an extraordinary place like the High Continent.
Zhou Zhou found it hard to imagine.
Back then, the first batch of Dark Walkers had relied on these unorthodox herbs to bring hope to the living beings who had suffered the Scarlet Fog disaster for the first time.
“Get Ling’er to gather all the medicinal herbs here. Collect 10 billion sets first.”
“Inform the Alchemist Guild, the pharmacists, doctors, and other Classes in the territory. They can even be Normal Subjects. From now on, do your best to make this potion.”
These potions were originally made by ordinary people after research. With a little familiarity with his territory’s Subjects, he could easily make them.
“Wen Ya.”
“You should also start building the corresponding pharmaceutical factory. Once it’s completed, start working immediately!”
“All the expenses mentioned above will be handled by the Kingdom!”
Zhou Zhou said.
[Yes! Your Majesty!]
The gentle voice that was everywhere appeared in Zhou Zhou’s mind.
“Lastly, get all the soldiers and Subjects in the territory to come here and accept the profession inheritance of the Dark Walker.”
“That’s all for now.”
Zhou Zhou said.
“Yes, Your Majesty. I’ll do it right away.”
Atley said respectfully.
Zhou Zhou nodded.
The current Dark Walker Class no longer had the disadvantages of the Class that they had when they were just developed. Naturally, he could allow all Subjects to accept his Class inheritance.
Zhou Zhou felt that the history of the Dark Walker should not be forgotten by the world.
He would let the Subjects of his territory remember them first.
