Evolution Plug-in: I can evolve effortlessly!

"Eh? Petrification?"

Robert was baffled after hearing this name. The name of this Innate Talent is a bit unique, right?

Is this innate talent similar to that of Medusa's?

If that's the case then it would be cool! With just one stare he can petrify anyone with ease!

But can anyone tell him how the hell is this talent related to defense?

Robert thought to himself in confusion, He wanted a Defence skill but the system gave him an attack skill? This doesn't make sense.

But before asking any questions he decided to look at the description of the Innate Talent. Who knows if there is a surprise for him?

Petrification: Instantly petrify yourself and form a layer of defense that covers every part of your body. Note: With this talent, you will have an impenetrable defense but your speed would be greatly reduced.

The description is short and precise but Robert understood the effect of the talent. So it's indeed a Defensive Innate Talent!

The name is a bit misleading! With this talent, he cannot petrify others which greatly disappointed Robert but on the bright side, he can petrify himself and increase his defense though the downside is that his speed would be greatly reduced.

All of this is an interpretation of the description as for the specifics of the innate talent he has to use before making any comments.

On this note, it is worth mentioning that he has not used previous awakened talent. He can use this chance to try both of the talents.

"Since I just had an evolution, I will take some time to collect resources by going outside. After collecting enough resources I can get a lot of energy points from which I can enter the Core Formation Realm!" Robert thought to himself.

He didn't want to eat High-grade spiritual essence once again, That's simply torturing! It's better to find other alternatives.

Thinking of this Robert stood up and walked outside the treasure room, After opening the gate from inside Robert was surprised.

There is no one outside! The whole place is deserted and even the overlord turtle is not here which made him feel strange.

"What happened? Where are the others?" Robert thought to himself in confusion as he left the place to go outside.

After climbing the place he arrived at the surface.

After exiting the place he noticed that there are no people near the Trial ground which is very abnormal, Under normal circumstances, this place should have a few guards around it because of its importance but now there are no people here!

Robert furrowed his brow and instinctively felt that something was wrong here. Wasting no time he left the place and walked toward the residential area of the Taotie restaurant where most people gather.

After arriving here Robert saw many familiar faces, Be it Slither or White Fang who ran out to bring food. At this moment all of them were gathered here with curious faces as they are crowded together.

He even noticed that there are bloodstains on White Fang's clothes.

"What happened?" Robert arrived near them and asked seriously.

"Robert, you are here!" White Fang exclaimed suddenly she thought of something and guilt appeared on her face, "Robert, Sorry I did not bring food for you."

"It's alright! What happened here? And what's with these bloodstains?" Robert waved his hands and didn't blame White Fang for this. Something must have happened which made her forget about the food.

"It's like this, When I came out from the trial ground I saw a beast aggressively invading our place and rushing toward the residential area. Out of instinct I made a move and killed it." White Fang said while she lowered her head in guilt. At that time she forgot that she has to keep her cultivation a secret and she is a member of a special department.

Because of this reason, she made a move everyone now knows her cultivation level right? That's the reason why she felt guilty, She felt that she had disrupted Robert's arrangements.

"Someone attacked the place once again? And a residential area on that?" Robert said unhappily. They have already suffered a loss once which has restricted their various day to day life but now more people are attacking Taotie restaurant? 

Do they think we are good to bully? 

"Good Job! White Fang, you did the right thing, So you don't have to feel guilty about this. If the intruder was allowed to enter the residential area then we would have suffered enormous losses so it's great that you solved it." Robert praised White Fang for her move and it's not empty praise.

They have just reconstructed the Residential area. If someone wreaks havoc once again then he would cry. So White Fang has done the right thing by killing that intruder.

"Really?" White Fang life's her head with happiness. She felt as long as Robert did not blame her it was fine. Thinking of this she said happily, "Robert come here! You should look at the beast. The Overlord Turtle said that it's a desolate beast." 

Robert, who was pulled by White Fang was stunned. Desolate Beasts? They have reached here? 

That's faster than he expected! In the middle of the crowd, Robert saw a 4-meter long body laying on the ground motionlessly. This should be the desolate beast.

This desolate beast's looks are not much different from other Spiritual beasts. They looked like normal Spiritual beasts.

The one desolate beast that attacked today looks like a lion. On its body, there are few claw marks which should be the work of White Fang.

Besides the dead body, there are Overlord Turtle and other Foundation Realm beasts under Taotie restaurant.

At this moment Overlord Turtle was explaining something to others.

"Look! The stomach area is one of the most fragile areas for desolate beasts. So if you encounter one in the future try to aim for this part. If you do so then there is a great chance that you can kill it in one blow."

"But it's not absolute as many desolate beasts have strong defenses which do not have weak spots like this. So if you encounter something like this then try to injure their eyes."

"Other than that you should never attack the place near their spine as this place has the strongest defense and this applies to every Desolate Beast."

"Don't think that it's easy to kill a desolate beast. Although that little lass can kill the desolate beast in one blow it is because her attack has a strong penetrative effect and the level of the desolate beast is too low for her."

Robert saw that Overlord Turtle was explaining the weak and strong points of the desolate beasts to everyone. Robert was grateful for this as everyone is blank regarding the Desolate beasts with this information they should be cautious while going outside.

Just as Robert was thinking about this Overlord Turtle noticed him and his eyes lit up. He looked at him and said, "Little brat come here! You have work to do."

Hearing Overlord Turtle Robert brought White Fang and moved near him.

"Senior, What work?" Robert asked in confusion.

"The work to deal with this!" The Overlord Turtle pointed at the corpse of the Desolate beast and continued, "You have to take it for the exchange. You can take some good things from the Marshal Crocodile in exchange for this corpse." 

"Is this necessary?" Robert was reluctant to do this now. Although he has plans to take part in the event he and everyone in the Taotie restaurant are not ready for this.

He wanted to wait until everyone's cultivation had climbed up and he had reached the Core Formation Realm. With these everyone would have little protection ability.

Hearing Robert, The Overlord Turtle rolled his eyes and said in an annoyed manner, "Of course it's necessary! The event has just started for a few days and I am sure not many people should have exchanged something from the Marshal Crocodile."

"That means many good things should be up for redemption. If you go there now then you can get many good things in exchange for the corpse of the Desolate beasts. And there is a great chance that you can meet the Marshal Crocodile. This will make things easier for your plan, right?" 

Robert was startled after hearing the Overlord Turtle and felt that his words made sense. If he could come into contact with the Marshal Crocodile then it's worthwhile because it is very helpful for his plans which need the assistance of the Marshal Crocodile.

"But I don't know the address!" Robert expressed his difficulty. He is completely clueless about the locations of the Inner Forest. He did not know the exact location of Marshal Crocodile's den. 

"Don't worry about these small details. I will help you in this regard." Overlord Turtle said with confidence.

"Then it's alright!" Robert agreed after hearing this.
