It could be seen that Brand Haden was speaking from the bottom of his heart, because the customs of the Centaurs were very different from that of humans. They did not care whether the offspring was their own, but they were more pragmatic and cared about whether the offspring was stronger.
As long as the offspring was recognized as a member of the family and did their best to fight for it, they would be their good sons.
This was actually not unusual. Not to mention Centaurs, there were many similar customs in human history.
Genghis Khan Temujin's wife, Bora, was once taken away by the Mo-er Beggar Tribe. First, she was taken by the leader and made some detailed descriptions that would be sealed in this chapter. Then, under the pleading of his younger brother, the leader gave her to his younger brother to marry.
As a result, after Temujin accumulated some strength, he defeated the Mo-er Beggar Tribe again and saved his wife. Unfortunately, Bora was pregnant at this time.
Ahem, to be honest, Bora probably didn't even know who the child was, but the only thing she was sure of was that it had nothing to do with Temujin!
According to the normal thinking of the Han people, they would definitely choose to kill this bastard directly, but Temujin did not do that. Instead, he gladly accepted this eldest son.
Because he felt that the child's bloodline came from the Mo-er Beggar Tribe, which had defeated him many times. Strong enough! Wild enough! Strong enough! Therefore, it was good for his family.
Later, Temujin named him Jochi, entrusted him with great power, and finally enfeoffed him as the Khan of the Kipchak Khanate! He was treated the same as the other sons, without the slightest dislike.
Similarly, the Japanese also had such a custom. In the tenth century AD, Su Dongpo's talent was at its peak, and his literary talent had conquered the whole of Asia.
Many Japanese nobles would let the noble ladies in their families follow the envoys to China. They had to travel thousands of miles, and even risk the great danger of capsizing their ships.
Then these noble ladies would come to Su Dongpo's mansion and recommend themselves. Once they were pregnant, these nobles would immediately call the woman back to the family, treat the child as a treasure, and directly set him as the heir.
This was definitely one of the earliest versions of the Thousand Miles Gift.

Facing this amazing variable, the Goat panicked for a while and realized that it was not good to say anything. The key was that he didn't know what to say!
Fortunately, Fang Linyan and Vulture could still keep calm, so they began to argue with Brand Haden, claiming that Goat also needed a genius to revitalize the family!
He is the sole heir of the ninth generation and is in desperate need of an heir. A father's love is like a mountain. How can you deprive a father of his rights?
In the face of a genius that only appeared once in a hundred years, Brand Haden gave in a lot. In the end, not only did he agree to give the goat two extra portions of Gaia's blood, but he also left a summoning mark on the goat.
Through this summoning mark, the Mountain Goat could summon a powerful Elite Centaur Tyrant to fight for him for 8 hours. This Elite Centaur Tyrant was a ghostly existence, so it would not truly die.
At the same time, its HP was as high as 2,000 points, and its Defense was also top-notch. Although its Attack was slightly inferior, it had an active skill, [Horseshoe Trample]. After using it, it could stun all enemies within 10 meters for 3 seconds.
Not only that, but the spear used by the Centaur Tyrant was smeared with a poison that reduced the movement speed of any enemy hit by 30% for 15 seconds.
Of course, the goat could also learn about his son's recent situation from the tyrannical centaur.
After these two additional compensations, Goat was definitely overjoyed, especially the existence of the Elite Centaur Tyrant. It could be said that the threat of being killed by the enemy directly was greatly reduced.
Of course, this guy's face must have made a very depressed expression.
As for Brand Haden, he also felt that he made a lot of money. Although Gaia's blood was precious, he had mastered the refining method himself, so it was not a big deal to give out 2 more portions.
As for the summoning mark, it was the compensation offered by the ancestors in the ancestral tomb after they were alarmed. Brand Haden didn't have to pay a single cent …
After reaching an agreement, both sides could be said to be happy!
In this friendly atmosphere, Fang Linyan began to inquire about the inside story of the centaur tribe's pregnancy. Finally, he finally uncovered the mystery that Goat could become a father in less than 50 hours.
It turned out that once the female centaur became sexually mature, she would directly enter the pregnancy cycle. Even if there was no male, she would automatically give birth to a spore sac. This spore sac was about the size of a bowl, and it usually did not affect the fighting and life of the female centaur.
The spore sac would exist in her body for up to 5 months and slowly develop. During this period, if she did not obtain the sperm of a male, the spore sac would be directly discharged when it was completely mature. This process was similar to the menstruation of human women.
Even if she obtained the sperm of a male, the female centaur still had a special physiological structure that could temporarily store the sperm of a male. If she felt that the male had potential, she would put it in and merge it with the spore sac.
However, this kind of precaution also varied from person to person. It could prevent most species, but for abnormal creatures like the hill giant, the female centaur's precaution measures were also very limited.
Obviously, the little mare Jordan thought that Goat's genes were very potential. In fact, it was really the case. Goat's kobold bloodline had now been purified very well. He was even one step away from the dragon blood kobold bloodline.
Therefore, Jordan placed the seeds he borrowed into the spore sac, allowing his own spore sac to successfully undergo the fertilization process.
According to the relevant data, when the human fetus developed to 4 months, it was only less than 20 cm long and weighed less than 200 grams.
So once the spore sac of the centaur was successfully fertilized, it was directly similar to the human fetus (4 months) stage. Therefore, it entered a rapid development stage. It only took 24 hours to determine the quality of its talent, not to mention 50 hours had passed.
For the complex pregnancy mechanism of the centaur, Vulture was confused at first, but when Fang Linyan said 2 words, he suddenly understood.
What 2 words did Fang Linyan say?
Hen.
Without a rooster, the hen would continue to lay eggs. Of course, these eggs could not be hatched.
As long as the spore sac was replaced with an egg, Vulture suddenly felt that this matter was happening beside him.
However, at this time, Goat stayed motionless on the side. His expression was a little surprised and ecstatic. After a while, he suddenly burst into laughter.
Fang Linyan and Vulture were very inexplicable, but Goat had already shared a golden milestone description in the team channel,
Milestone: Conquering the World (Progress 1/2)
Rarity: Legendary
Description: You have successfully obtained a very talented (Legendary-level) descendant in the other dimension. Please continue to work hard. When you obtain two very talented (Legendary-level) descendants in the other dimension, you will complete this milestone.
Reward: After completing this milestone, your legend level will permanently increase by 1 point.
After seeing this milestone, Fang Linyan was fine, but Vulture's eyes suddenly turned red. Jealousy made Gouzi, oh no, Vulture's face changed beyond recognition. He couldn't help but shout,
"This is not fair! I don't have any f * cking legend level, how can you almost get the 2nd point!! "
After hesitating for a while, Vulture punched his waist and went to find Brand Haden resolutely. He said shyly but firmly,
"Ahem, Mr. Great Chieftain, in fact, my offspring will definitely be very good. I am also a very talented person, …"
Brand Haden looked at him up and down, then he said straightforwardly,
"No, you don't."
Vulture, "…"
At this time, Goat and Fang Linyan were already laughing so hard that they couldn't close their legs. Even tears were coming out of their eyes.
An ancestor who was watching next to them even said earnestly,
"To be able to obtain such a peerless genius in our clan is already a blessing from Mother Earth. If we still have greed in our hearts, then the heavens will send down a calamity to punish us for our insatiable greed."
Brand Haden nodded solemnly; he seemed to agree.
What else could Vulture do? He could only roll his eyes and stop talking.
***
After this matter was resolved, Fang Linyan and the other two first mixed the medicine in the space with Gaia's blood according to the prompt.
After mixing, they drank it according to the prompt, and successfully obtained the hidden milestone, Glory.
The S-level title: Blessing of Mother Earth, of course, was also obtained.
Not only that, after the 3 checked the attributes, they found that the [Rejuvenation] they obtained after wearing it was different. There should be a difference in the mixing of the medicine in the space with Gaia's blood.
For example, the [Rejuvenation] obtained by Fang Linyan was called: Nimble Rejuvenation. During the duration of [Rejuvenation], his movement speed would be increased by an additional 20%. This should be the reason why he used [Full Recovery Potion (Small)] mixed with Gaia's blood.
Goat's [Rejuvenation] was called: Morning Rejuvenation. When using [Rejuvenation], he could also get an additional 200% MP recovery rate.
Vulture's [Rejuvenation] was called: Weakness Rejuvenation. When using [Rejuvenation], it would increase his critical strike rate by 3% for 60 seconds.
Not only that, Goat also got 2 additional portions of Gaia's blood because of his children, so his [Rejuvenation] became [Morning Rejuvenation] (Enhanced), so he obtained an additional attribute:
When [Rejuvenation] is still effective when [Rejuvenation] is not injured (full HP), then its healing effect will form a shield on him.
Goat curiously used it once on the spot and found that when his HP was full, [Enhanced Rejuvenation] directly formed a shield, and the HP of the shield was equal to 100 + 25 x 5 points = 225 points, and the duration of the shield was up to 1 hour.
Not only that, the cooldown time of [Rejuvenation] was 12 hours for others, but the cooldown time of Goat's [Enhanced Rejuvenation] was 2 hours, which could be said to be quite good. This once again strengthened Goat's biggest shortcoming.
After dealing with all these things, it seemed that everything was perfect:
The team successfully leveled up, and they also drew an extremely powerful skill in the battle between contractors.
— — My team skill is to make you have no team skill!
Not only that, but they also got a title that greatly enhanced survivability. No one would complain about survivability.
In fact, Fang Linyan felt that it was very likely that there would be follow-up missions from Ryan, but he couldn't have his cake and eat it too. He had invested a lot of energy in the hidden milestone: 'Glory', so Ryan could only choose to give it up.
Seeing that there were only 2 hours left of the 8 hours of free stay, after the three left Maraudon, they directly sent out a signal according to the request they had when they came. The last notification they received was that the spaceship that would pick them up would arrive in an hour.
While waiting, the three of them unlocked the keys dropped by the two unlucky fellows from before.
Among them, Raul didn't drop anything good, only a pair of gloves that they couldn't use. It looked like it could be sold for more than 10,000 utility points.
On the other hand, MT Mark dropped an A-grade skill book, which was the skill he had used before. With a sliding step, he directly crossed a distance of more than 10 meters and appeared in front of Fang Linyan. This skill was called Interception.
Name: Interception
Quality: A-grade
[Description: This is a relatively common auxiliary combat skill on the battlefield. It does not have any attack power, but it is very important in a team. It can greatly increase the survivability of the whole team.]
[Effect (on allies): In a short time (0.2 seconds), you will quickly appear beside an ally and take the next attack for him. The damage caused by the next attack will be reduced by 50%, but the user's movement speed will be reduced by 25% for the next 3 seconds.]
[Effect (on enemies): In a short time (0.2 seconds), you will quickly appear beside an enemy, but the movement speed of both the user and the target enemy will be reduced by 50% for the next 3 seconds.]
[This skill has no consumption, but it must be activated in advance when used on allies. After activation, it can be used twice within 1 minute. The cooldown time is 60 minutes. After activation, it will enter the cooldown time after 1 minute, regardless of whether it is used or not.]
[Effect does not need to be activated when used on enemies. The cooldown time is 120 minutes.]
[The prerequisites for using Interception are: The user's load must not exceed 200 kilograms, the target (whether it is an ally or an enemy) must be within 30 meters in a straight line, and the user must be able to see the target. Otherwise, the skill cannot be used.]
[Interception] is very difficult to interrupt, except for AoE skills such as stun.
***
After seeing this skill, Fang Linyan keenly felt the power of this skill. This was a skill that tested one's imagination and had infinite potential.
In addition to the skill description, Fang Linyan even felt that it could be used as an escape skill.
For example, let the vulture stand downstairs first, then he would jump down directly. After falling 25 meters away from the vulture, he would use this skill directly. Wouldn't he be able to rush to the vulture and escape perfectly?
For example, if the enemy launched a powerful skill at him, wouldn't he be able to escape successfully if he used this skill on an ally or an enemy?
In addition, if the goat entered a near-death state, he could use [Interception], then carry the goat and activate [Interception] to rush to the vulture. In this way, he could rush 50 meters away in just one or two seconds. Its strategic value was quite considerable.
In short, the more Fang Linyan studied it, the more he felt that the potential of this ability was infinite. It was the same for the vulture and the goat.
However, because this skill had a special attribute of "quickly come to the side of an ally and take the next attack for him", it was obvious that contractors with thick skin had an advantage in learning this skill.
Considering that Max, the MT who was completely defensive, would soon join the team, it was actually a choice to leave this skill for him to use.
However, this guy's position in the team was somewhat similar to the defensive frontline in the NBA. The representative characters were like Rodman, Uncle Mu, Little Jordan and so on. After learning this skill, it would completely become a defensive ability. It was not as good as Fang Linyan who could play with both offense and defense after learning it.
In this case, after some discussion, Fang Linyan learned [Interception]. With the increase of team members, [Interception] would definitely be a powerful skill in his hands.
After waiting for about half an hour, they could see a flash of light above the sky, then several rays of light were projected down. It looked like the special effects of the spotlights on the stage.
Looking up, they could feel that the clouds in the sky were still there, but for some reason, it gave people a strong sense of oppression as if there was a behemoth lying across the sky.
Some of these rays of light faded, and some directly became brighter. In the end, five rays of light were left. Three rays of light fell on Fang Linyan and the other two should be projected to a place more than ten kilometers away.
Immediately afterward, Fang Linyan and the other two rays of light quickly flew upward, and the other two rays of light came to pick up the remaining two members of the Tombstone team.
Seeing this scene, a majestic low roar also sounded outside Orgrimmar. It was the Lion King Shuma who was reluctantly bidding farewell to this world.
***
The people outside the light beam saw Fang Linyan and the others climbing up quickly, but the three people involved felt like they were taking an elevator. It was very stable and smooth, and they couldn't see outside. They only felt that the periphery was a little blurry.
Soon, they re-entered the interior of a huge spaceship. It was very magical inside. There seemed to be flowing light everywhere. Fang Linyan and the other two were directly transported into a quiet and spacious room by the light belt flowing under their feet without doing anything.
At this time, their seats seemed to be completely formed by thousands of rays of light. It could be said that it was breathtaking, as if they were in a dream. Very beautiful light music also sounded in their ears. This music had no lyrics, only a beautiful melody. It was like the sound of water and the whistling of wind. It could only be described as the sound of nature.
Fang Linyan and the other two originally thought that they would meet the Tombstone team again, but they didn't expect that the two parties would be directly separated like this. As time passed, the three lying on the seats suddenly felt sleepy and fell asleep.
The result was the same as when they came. When they opened their eyes again, they were already back in Noah Realm S.
When they were in the room before, Fang Linyan had already counted the gains this time. In addition to the team skill 'Formless' that he had successfully obtained, and the 'Rejuvenation' that everyone had obtained, he also learned 'Intercept'.
The remaining things that needed to be dealt with at this time were:
The dark ingredients on the wolf king.
The 5 peacebloom flowers.
The giant's core dropped by Kishas.
After the goat got the Sphinx bloodline power from Kishas, it seemed that he could also prepare for the bloodline awakening.
Of course, there was still the nightmare curse left behind by Kishas after his death that needed to be dealt with.
Not only that, Fang Linyan also had an urgent matter to do, that was, the energy block! He must get the energy block as soon as possible.
