Ye Lingchen did not participate in the battle for long, but he witnessed the bloodshed on the battlefield. He recounted in detail how Blue Wolf's Chief Instructor was beaten to death in order to hold back the Grade-A + creature.
Lin Ao and Lin Ruoyu naturally knew the cruelty of war. However, just like Ye Lingchen previously, knowing was one thing, and feeling was another. At that moment, when Ye Lingchen said it out loud, their hearts became even heavier. Then, the two of them left in silence.
Ye Lingchen went to the merit department. He had a plan in mind to exchange for some good stuff.
Moreover, he joined the battlefield, killed countless enemies, and turned the situation around. He should at least be rewarded.
At the merit department.
The old man was still sitting there. Many warriors who participated in the battle were there as well. Using merit to improve their strength would give them more protection in the next battle. Now that resources were scarce, Ye Lingchen gradually understood what it meant to be a warrior's life.
When the old man saw Ye Lingchen, he immediately smiled. "Kid Ye, you did well on the battlefield this time. You killed a crossbow hunter, an Grade-A creature, and many Grade-C and Grade-B creatures. In addition, you killed two Grade-A creatures and one Grade-A + creature with Qin Baichuan and the other two.
"We've assessed you with 2,300 merit points. In addition, you saved the battlefield in time and turned the situation around. You're rewarded with 500 merit points."
Ye Lingchen was slightly stunned and could not help but ask, "Doesn't that mean I have 2,800 merit points?"
Before joining the battle, he only had 200 merit points, but now it had increased by more than ten times!
He instantly felt like a nouveau riche.
Although the battlefield burned money, money came quickly at the same time. It would be even better if he could enter the Void Realm to plunder.
2,800 merit points was already an extremely high amount. Otherwise, Xiang Guocheng wouldn't have been so shameless as to cheat him of 28 merit points.
However, Ye Lingchen's eyes dimmed when he thought of the warriors who died in the battle. Those were all exchanged with their lives.
Of course, Ye Lingchen's merit points were obtained through trickery.
He was a variable that suddenly appeared in the middle of the battle. The people from the Void Realm were not prepared at all, which was why they were easily killed by him. If they had used the strategy of king against king from the beginning and used one or two Grade-A creatures to hold Ye Lingchen back, Ye Lingchen's role would have been very limited.
For example, Chen Qi's strength was clearly higher than Ye Lingchen's, but he was entangled by Grade-A + creatures and could only kill one of them in the end.
However, Ye Lingchen's contribution was undeniable. He killed enemies above his level, and countless of them at that. His contribution was no less than Chen Qi's.
"By the way, there's also the compensation for participating in this battle." The old man smiled and handed Ye Lingchen three bottles of liquid.
The three bottles of Soul Recovery Fluid were worth a total of 15 Achievement Points, which was the equivalent of killing a B-class creature. It was not a generous amount.
However, Ye Lingchen also knew that the Martial Arts Pavilion was lacking in resources. The spoils of war collected by the martial artists still belonged to the martial artists themselves. It was already good enough that the Martial Arts Pavilion was willing to subsidize them, so he accepted it with a smile.
Ye Lingchen opened one of the bottles, put it in front of his nose and sniffed it. It was odorless, so he drank it without hesitation.
The liquid was contained in a small glass bottle, about 30 milliliters, which was not even enough for Ye Lingchen to drink.
That was the first time Ye Lingchen came into contact with Void Realm medicine. He smacked his lips and tasted a hint of sweetness, but it was lighter than fruit juice.
The next moment, he could clearly feel the coolness of the medicinal liquid flowing into his stomach, then turning into spiritual energy that filled his entire body. The spiritual energy was very faint for Ye Lingchen, but for ordinary inner force martial artists, it could quickly restore more than 30% of their inner force.
"Void Realm medicine is really amazing." Ye Lingchen gave such an evaluation.
The old man was dumbfounded and stared blankly at Ye Lingchen. "You drank it just like that?"
"Hmm … What's wrong?"
"F * ck! This is Soul Recovery Fluid! It's like a second life for a martial artist! You, you! "The old man's hair stood on end. It was the first time he saw someone so wasteful.
That kind of thing cost five merit points per bottle. It was extremely precious to warriors and also to the Martial Arts Pavilion. The Spirit Regeneration Elixir was produced by pressing the Spirit Regeneration Herb. Countless warriors risked their lives to bring it out from the Void Realm. Such a waste of resources made the old man's eyes bulge out of his sockets.
"I'm just studying the medicinal properties so that I can make medicine that is more beneficial to martial artists in the future," Ye Lingchen said.
He was already thinking about how to combine the Void Realm's elixirs with Earth's herbs to maximize the medicinal properties.
The old man was skeptical. "Really? You're also researching medicine? "
"Senior, I have another identity, Miracle Doctor Y."
Ye Lingchen's words immediately made the old man's eyes light up. His initial exasperation turned into admiration. "How is it? Did you find anything? If you can really research something, you'll be a hero to the Martial Arts Pavilion and the entire human race! "
Ye Lingchen rolled his eyes. How could it be that fast? His knowledge of Chinese medicine was at the limits of Earth and he knew too little about Soul Recovery Grass.
After pondering for a moment, he placed the crossbow and the other two bottles of Soul Recovery Fluid on the table. "Senior, I'll exchange these things for merit points. How much do you think they're worth?"
"An A-grade crossbow is more valuable than ordinary A-grade weapons. 400 merit points. A total of 410 merit points," the old man answered quickly.
With that, Ye Lingchen had 3,210 merit points.
He looked at the exchange list and fell into a dilemma. The price of elixirs far exceeded the medicinal fluid, which was five times that of the medicinal fluid.
Body Tempering Flower had the effect of tempering the body. Consuming it could improve the physical fitness of ordinary people. 5 merit points.
Meridian Tempering Grass could temper a martial artist's meridians. 25 merit points.
Resurrection Fruit could heal external injuries. 25 merit points.
Soul Recovery Grass could instantly restore spiritual energy. 25 merit points.
…
There were only 16 types of flowers and plants in total, but they were so expensive.
"Senior, these elixirs seem to be basic," Ye Lingchen asked the old man. "Are there no elixirs useful for Innate Stage martial artists?"
"Of course there are. Not to mention Innate Stage martial artists, there are even those above that." The old man looked at Ye Lingchen with a smile. "However, even the Martial Arts Pavilion doesn't have these elixirs, or should I say, we don't have them. They're not something that can be exchanged with merit points alone."
Ye Lingchen understood. The Void Realm was truly an immortal realm. The more he thought about it, the more itchy he felt.
"Give me five of each of these elixirs," Ye Lingchen said as he rubbed his nose.
He was prepared to transplant them to Miracle Island. He had a feeling that the Wood Spirit Constitution would be equally useful for these elixirs! Who knew, it might even live?
"Senior, has the Martial Arts Pavilion never thought of planting these elixirs?" Ye Lingchen asked tentatively.
The old man shook his head with a bitter smile. "It's too difficult. These elixirs require extremely harsh conditions for their growth. Even in the Void Realm, they can't be found everywhere. They need to be nurtured with spirit stones. Many of them grow around spirit stone mines. There's no possibility of them growing on Earth. If we were to sacrifice a large number of spirit stones to plant elixirs, we wouldn't have enough spirit stones to begin with, and the losses outweigh the gains."
He was indeed overthinking things. If the Martial Arts Pavilion could plant elixirs, they would not be so precious.
