17 Chapter 17: Special Items that can Increase Permanent Attribute Points!
Translator: 549690339
[Item: Werewolf Heart]
[Quality: Five-star]
[Effect: Consumption of this heart permanently increases 5 Strength points and 5 Agility points, with a limit of ten servings. There is a minute chance that the consumer’s bloodline will transition into the Werewolf bloodline.]
[Description: An ordinary werewolf heart, it holds the secret of werewolf power.]
[PS: This ingredient is derived from a special skill dissection and is unique. Conventional dissection methods cannot obtain this special ingredient.]
(There has been a point made about the werewolf heart, and so some changes have been made here.)
“This heart… can be eaten?”
“A special ingredient? Permanently increases 5 Strength points and 5 Agility points and holds the chance to gain a Werewolf bloodline?”
“This…”
Upon seeing the attributes of this heart, Zheng Cheng was so stunned that he barely managed to get a word out.
To his knowledge, all Professionists, after leveling up, would receive free attribute points according to the star rating of their professional grade.
Nine-star Professionists would receive 9 free attribute points.
One-star Professionists would receive 1 free attribute point.
That’s how the rule has always been.
Besides free attribute points gained from leveling up, there are also some other exceptional treasures of heaven and earth, which can grant free attribute points when consumed.
Additionally, life Professionists such as alchemists, cooks, pharmacists, and the likes.
Their end products like elixirs, medicinal meals, and medicinal soups and so forth also serve to increase free attribute points.
However, consuming a Werewolf Heart that is only of five-star quality can permanently increase 5 Strength points and 5 Agility points, a total of 10 attribute points.
This was something he had never heard of before!
Moreover, this heart may also grant the consumer a Werewolf bloodline.
Could this…
be a Bloodline Transition Tool?
Among Professionists, the value of a Bloodline Transition Tool often reaches hundreds of thousands of gold coins, or even millions!
Some rare Bloodline Transition Tools such as Angel Bloodline, Elf Bloodline, and Heavenly Spirit Bloodline and so forth, carry astronomical prices!
Zheng Cheng’s mind raced: “This heart… it was dissected from a Werewolf’s corpse by me.”
“The key must lie within my Random Dissection Skill…”
“Change Ability… could it be that I can dissect items like the Werewolf Heart from Professionists or even monster corpses? ”
“If this is the case…”
Zheng Cheng’s eyes lit up and he immediately wanted to conduct an experiment.
“Hey, Zheng Cheng.”
Subconsciously, Zheng Cheng flipped his hand and stored the werewolf heart into his item slot.
Newly awakened Professionists have ten item slots for placing various equipment and items.
Every 10 levels gained will increase the number of item slots by ten.
He wanted to keep the secret of this heart to himself for now.
Yao Zhixue suddenly walked over, her beautiful eyes fixed on Zheng Cheng unwaveringly.
“I remembered who you are now… You’re Zheng Cheng from class four. You had a dispute with Liang Feifan from class two when you awakened your profession a week ago.”
“That incident caused quite a stir at school. Even the teacher mentioned you to me.”
Zheng Cheng thought: “Correct, that’s me.”
“By the way, what did the teacher say about me?”
“A profession and skill used for comic relief.”
“Which teacher? I want to have a chat with them.”
“…”
“Thank you.”
“What?”
“I said, thank you.” Yao Zhixue’s stunning and icy face wore a casual smile: “Thank you.”
“If not for you, I might have been taken away by the Fallen Ones.”
Zheng Cheng suddenly stretched out his hand: “Hand it over.”
“What?”
Yao Zhixue glanced down and realized she was only wrapped in a single towel.
Covering most of her body, exposing her immaculate skin.
Unconsciously she adjusted the towel wrapped around her.
Leaving Zheng Cheng slightly disconcerted, he responded: “My diagnosis fee.”
“Huh?”
“You’re not trying to wriggle out of paying, are you?” Zheng Cheng questioned her quizzically: “You’re a Nine-star Professionist, the star of the future…”
“Here, here, here…”
Blushing, Yao Zhixue quickly took out some gold coins and handed them to Zheng Cheng.
“So, um…”
“Is there anything else?”
“Can you keep this incident from the other students?”
“Of course, maintaining confidentiality for patients is what we doctors do.” Zheng Cheng smiled and shifted his gaze to the night guards: “What about them?”
“I, I told them I had something to discuss with you…”
“Zheng Cheng grimaced, “Are we going to discuss this in a hotel room?”
“You…”
Yao Zhixue’s cheeks flushed again, gritting her teeth she said, “Whatever, just keep it to yourself when you go out.”
“If, if not, I, I will…”
“What will you do?”
“I…”
Yao Zhixue took a deep breath and said, “I plead with you…”
Zheng Cheng was taken aback, not expecting this princess of heaven to beg him over this matter.
He nodded, “Don’t worry, I won’t utter a word.”
“Tha- thank you…”
“Zhixue!”
From afar, Zhao Yunxiao suddenly shouted; they had managed to get Qingteng out of the ice sculpture.
He wasn’t dead.
But he was utterly knocked unconscious because of freezing.
She came over and said, “You’ve been attacked by The Dawn. We must report this to headquarters immediately.”
“You should come with us.”
Yao Zhixue nodded, “Alright.”
Zhao Yunxiao turned to Zheng Cheng, “Zheng Cheng, right? I see great potential in you~”
He patted him on the shoulder and handed him a business card.
“This is my card, be sure to call me if you’re interested~”
Zheng Cheng laughed, “Ok.”
The group quickly left with the bodies of The Dawn.
Meanwhile, Zheng Cheng returned to the Priest Guild.
Today was the last day of his seven-day rental period, and the Acute Gastroenteritis Instant Eruption Technique had been upgraded to LV3.
With the number of patients requiring healing drastically reduced, there was no need to remain here any longer.
As he was packing, the door quietly opened, and a small head poked in.
“Zheng Cheng!”
Zheng Cheng replied, unfazed, “Mengmeng, come on in.”
Over the past few days, he had become fairly well acquainted with the junior priest next door while training his skills.
Lu Mengmeng.
A healer with a five-star profession.
She was proficient in the Light Healing Technique and Light Technique.
As a priestess, she was undoubtedly unqualified.
As a nanny, though, her qualifications were top-notch!
Lu Mengmeng curiously asked, “Why are you packing up?”
“My rental period is over, preparing to move out.”
“Ah?” Lu Mengmeng’s eyes widened, “Where are you going?”
“What should I do if you leave!”
These past few days, Zheng Cheng had been treating patients.
There were at least a few hundred people waiting in line here every day.
Serving such a large clientele naturally resulted in a spillover to her as well.
People lined up to treat their minor injuries and issues with her while they were here.
The business she received in these seven days far exceeded that of the previous month!
As a baby-faced, busty healer, she attracted countless gazes.
Fortunately, Lu Mengmeng was a professional; otherwise, she would be the target of countless people.
Zheng Cheng shrugged, “I have my own business to take care of, and you aren’t my wife~”
At this, Lu Mengmeng blushed and hesitated as she approached him, “Umm, then can I be your girlfriend…”
“No…”
Zheng Cheng quickly raised his hand to block her, “Your milk capacity is too high, and I can’t keep up.”
“You…!”
Through these days of interaction, Zheng Cheng had a good understanding of what kind of person Lu Mengmeng was.
Despite her wolf and tiger-like words, if he really tried to take advantage of her, there would be no possibility at all!
Plus, Zheng Cheng suspected that this girl had mastered some sort of attack technique.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t be able to move around safely on her own all the time.
Lu Mengmeng pouted, “Hmph! You’re so hateful! So many people beg me to be their girlfriend, yet you refuse to appreciate it…”
Zheng Cheng finished packing and turned around, “You trust me this much?”
“Aren’t you scared that I could be some midnight butcher who’d trick you out, then X, then X, and after X, again X?”
Lu Mengmeng instinctively shrank back, “You wouldn’t.”
“Hahaha!”
Zheng Cheng waved his hand and laughed, “You’re the first priest friend I’ve made. If you ever want to find me, look for me at the slaughterhouse!”
“Slaughterhouse?”
