Chu Nan continuously conversed with Jack during the journey to the druid village, and he noticed that the other druids were more respectful towards him. They also occasionally probed him to ask if he was a hidden expert. Toward their probing, Chu Nan only maintained a mysterious smile
In the face of Chu Nan’s response, the druids’ probing firmly led them to believe that Chu Nan was deliberately concealing his strength.
During their conversation, Chu Nan had also learned that he was in a world called the Shengyuan Continent.
The various races living here called this place the Heaven Forest, whilst the humans would call it the Death God’s Forest. As for its size, there was nearly nobody that could give an accurate answer.
Thousands of years ago, Jack’s village had migrated to the Heaven Forest, and from thereon, they rarely left the forest and entered human society unless necessary.
Except for a few other races, the other villages were similar to Jack’s village as they also rarely left the forest to interact with the crafty and despicable humans.
As a result, Chu Nan did not manage to obtain much information about the outside world, even after questioning Jack for a while. What he managed to find out was that the outside world was not as safe as he hoped it would be.
There were around four to five, or perhaps five to six large countries that occupied the majority of the land, whereas several smaller countries occupied the remaining area. He was unable to obtain information about the relationships between different countries and only knew that wars occurred rather frequently. To his dismay, the continent did not seem to be too peaceful.
When Chu Nan recalled the man he killed earlier in the forest, he inquired about the different levels of warriors and mages in the outside world.
Jack was curious as to why a human from the outside world would ask such questions, but he still revealed what he knew.
In the outside world ruled by humans, they categorized their main battle professions into warriors and mages.
Due to different nationalities and weapons, various countries had their own ranking system. However, for the sake of competition between countries, the mainland had established a common ranking system.
They ranked them from strongest to weakest: Heaven, Earth, Human, and Unranked. The Unranked Realm consisted of 10 levels, with level 10 being the strongest and level 1 the weakest. After a practitioner breaks through level 10, they would advance into level 1 of the Human Realm.
Whereas they split the Heaven, Earth, and Human realms into 5 different levels. As long as a practitioner breaks into the Human Realm in the continent, then they are regarded as true experts. Human Realm experts would often have a comfortable life as long as there were no wars or fights.
After he finished asking about the outside world, Chu Nan tried to beat around the bush as he inquired more about druids to have a better understanding of Aleta’s current state. Unexpectedly, Jack did not conceal any information about capturing Catherine and revealed the reason behind their actions.
It turned out that there was a barbarian village nearby to the druid village Jack resided in, and a conflict had started between both villages over a hundred years ago.
Since then, the fights between them had never ceased, and as long as they fulfilled their basic needs, the villages would engage in a battle with each other.
As this situation continued for a long time, the casualties on both sides further increased; thus, the conflict between them became deeper.
Originally, these two villages were considered small among their respective race, and the battle skills they had access to were limited. As a result, none of the parties could defeat the other in the past hundred years.
However, a natural-born warrior had emerged in the barbarian village in the past few years: Shanz! Without guidance from a high-tier skill book, he had relied on his exceptional talent and comprehended ‘Battle Fury’; thus, successfully breaking through level 10 and becoming a level 1 Human Realm expert! Simultaneously, he became the top expert in the barbarian village.
The strongest expert of the druid village, Aleta, was merely at level 10, and even though he could transform into a werewolf, his position in the druid village was rather lacking, and the abilities he inherited were few. Also, due to the unexpected loss of inheritance, they were unable to learn ‘Feral Berserk’ – a specialty skill of werewolves. Ultimately, he was unable to break through to become a level 1 Human Realm druid to fight against Shanz
In their last battle, Aleta had risked his life in exchange to injure Shanz and forced the barbarians to temporarily retreat. However, everyone in the village was aware that they would be in danger once Shanz recovered.
The only way to save the village was to use the forbidden blood sacrifice, and for Royal Princess Catherine to call upon the Druid God’s pity at the expense of her life to cure Aleta’s injuries.
The ‘Battle Fury’ skill of the barbarians and the ‘Feral Berserk’ skill of the druid? The moment Chu Nan heard those two familiar names, he did not pay attention to what Jack said after at all.
Even though Chu Nan had not played the races of barbarians or druids in , he had interacted with players of those two races. From them, he had heard the names of those two skills.
He would not be so excited if he had merely heard of the names. The real reason behind his excitement was due to the previous owner’s strange hobby of collecting skill books.
As long as they were obtainable skill books, he could keep them in his spatial bracelet regardless of whether he could use them or not. Chu Nan had seen numerous skill books for druids while he was searching for .
Since and could be used, then perhaps those druid skill books were also usable?
Chu Nan sized up Jack. The robust druid sighed helplessly and said, “If the village possesses powerful battle skill inheritance, those barbarians would mean nothing. After we make it past this ordeal, I hope that Catherine can obtain a better position in the druid royalty selection and earn a better skill inheritance for our village.”
“Royalty?” Chu Nan was somewhat curious about the system of druids. “Didn’t you mention that Catherine was a princess? Why is the village not valued by the druid temple? By the way, how dare you burn the princess?”
“Princess…” Jack revealed a helpless bitter smile. “In fact, there is a druid princess in every village… However, with the exception of several large villages, the royal bloodlines of the princesses in smaller villages are very thin from the beginning. Currently, the term ‘royal princess’ is only used as a qualification to participate in the royalty selection.”
