Novel Bin Chapter 182 - Divine Impartation
After listening to Little Sally\'s wish, Albion began to think about a big problem—the language barrier.
There was no problem between him and the wolf-girls. But being his subordinates, they would also need to interact with other subordinates under him.
However, this cannot be done if there cannot even communicate.
\'There has to be a way…\' Albion mused.
According to some cultivation novels, there were some special techniques that allow immortal cultivators to transmit their knowledge and skill to others with a simple touch of their fingers.
Undoubtedly, the Dark Emperor had something similar to train so many subordinates and raised such a large underworld force that terrorized the world for millenniums.
\'You know what I want, right? Goldfinger?\'
Albion turned to Goldfinger for an answer, finding it troublesome to search for it himself when he could get an immediate response just by asking.
Ding!
<[Basic-level Divine Impartation]: 20 units of Divine Energy>
<[Basic-level Divine Impartation]: A divine-grade technique that allows the user to condense basic-level knowledge into neat packages and transmit it to other intelligent beings via the manipulation of divine energy>
<[Requirement 1]: At least 1 unit of divine energy per activation>
<[Requirement 2]: True Immortal Realm>
Looking at the stringent requirement to not only acquire but also use Basic-level Divine Impartation, Albion\'s lips twitched.
\'Can it be cheaper?\' Albion asked.
[The pricing is fair and non-negotiable.]
Goldfinger stated.
\'Bullshit!\'
Albion immediately rolled his eyes and retorted, \'Non-negotiable, my ass! Nothing is more unreliable than your pricing when you don\'t even hand out mission completion rewards on time!\'
\'Everything can be negotiated—just like money can buy anything! The only reason when it can\'t is when you don\'t have enough money!\' Albion added.
[Well said, host. Goldfinger is not picky. If the host would like to offer more divine energy in exchange for the Basic-level Divine Impartation skill, Goldfinger will happily accept.]
Goldfinger stated.
\'Out of the question!\' Albion refused strongly.
If Goldfinger was a person, he might have just tried to choke the life out of it there and then!
After a moment, Albion explained, \'What I meant is that 20 units of divine energy is too much for a basic-level skill—even if it\'s a divine-grade technique.\'
\'If you can lower the cost, I don\'t mind killing a few more people to help you level up faster,\' Albion suggested.
By now, he had long understood that all the EXP he should have gained from killing fellow humans had all went towards Goldfinger\'s growth.
Ding!
<A [Special Contract] has been initiated by Goldfinger>
<Goldfinger will offer [Basic-level Divine Impartation] for 19 units of divine energy + [Special Condition]>
<[Special Condition]: Kill 10 humans>
<Note: Failure to complete [Special Condition] will result in a breach of contract, thereby resulting in the deduction of all available divine energy from the breacher>
<Do you accept? Y / N>
\'This f*cker…\' Albion thought.
Only one unit had been deducted from the original price, but he had to kill 10 humans in return. In other words, 10 human lives were only worth 1 unit of divine energy.
Nevertheless, Albion\'s eyes flickered.
Since Goldfinger could not lower the price without setting any special conditions, it implied that 20 units of divine energy is already the lowest price without it.
\'I guess you are a bit sincere now,\' Albion mused for a moment before he accepted Goldfinger\'s offer, \'Yes!\'
Ding!
<19 units of divine energy has been deducted>
<You have learned [Basic-level Divine Impartation]>
<[Special Condition] has been imposed on you>
<Balance: 35/1000 Divine Energy>
…
A string of knowledge was engraved on Albion\'s soul core, allowing him to understand everything about [Basic-level Divine Impartation] off by heart.
\'Haiz, [Basic-level Divine Impartation] only allows for the impartation of basic-level skills. If I want to impart intermediate-level skills, I will need [Intermediate-level Divine Impartation],\' Albion contemplated.
\'Since I\'ve already begun spending a bit of divine energy, it won\'t hurt to spend a bit more,\' he mused shortly after before asking, \'How much for [Intermediate-level Divine Impartation], Goldfinger?\'
Ding!
<[Intermediate-level Divine Impartation]: 40 units of divine energy.]
<Do you wish to exchange? Y / N?>
…
"…Yeah, nah. F*ck that. I don\'t even have enough to make the exchange unless I wish to enter another [Special Contract] with Goldfinger,\' Albion frowned.
The lack of divine energy really put him on the spot. He needed to find a way to procure more divine energy—starting off with completing his missions.
Since he needed to eradicate the Bloodmoon Gang anyway, the [Special Condition] of killing 10 humans did not bother him.
He was killing two birds with one stone by simply eradicating the Bloodmoon Gang.
"Boss?"
Sally glanced at Albion with doubt and concern after noticing he had entered his delirious state once again.
"Hm? Where were we again?—Oh, right!" Albion recalled before he said with a nod, "Yes, it is definitely possible for you to converse with the wolf-girls."
"Really?!" Sally\'s eyes immediately lit up.
"Really!" Albion affirmed.
Nevertheless, [Basic-level Hundred Beast Language] would only allow rudimentary-level speaking and understanding of the wolf-girl\'s language.
What she needed was [Intermediate-level Hundred Beast Language] to converse with the wolf-girls—of which his current skill level did not allow.
However, Albion already had a solution for this problem.
"Fenriri, come over here for a sec," Albion called to the younger wolf-girl before she paused her fine dining on the meat skewers and walked up to him obediently.
"Do you need something from Fenriri, Master?" she asked.
"No, you just need to stand still for a moment."
"Understood, Master."
Shortly after, Albion willed, \'Seal, release!\'
Boom!
Albion\'s aura soared as he entered the True Immortal Realm, stunning the two wolf-girl almost instantly!
Ding!
<You have entered the True Immortal Realm>
<You have unlocked…>
<You have unlocked…>
…
At the same time, True Immortal Body devoured the energy of heavens and earth and refined it, allowing his spiritual energy to soar!
His white hair quickly grew out and become long once more as it danced and fluttered in the wind!
Divine Impartation!
Albion poked Fenriri\'s forehead while she was still stunned before a string of knowledge relating to the most commonly spoken human language, English, was imparted into her mind.
Ding!
<1 unit of Divine Energy has been expended>
<Balance: 34/1000 Divine Energy>
