Chapter 2190 - 2190: Divine Talent Fruit (Elemental Spirit Version)

'Interesting!'

Seeing the full details of the Divine Talent Fruit, Ajax couldn't help but feel excited.

A Divine Talent could significantly increase an Elemental Spirit's potential, and obtaining one through a single fruit was an excellent opportunity. Even though there was only a fifty percent chance of awakening a new Divine Talent, Ajax wasn't worried after reading the notes.

One effect could awaken a new Divine Talent, whereas the other could upgrade an existing one.

Between these two effects, one would definitely occur, and Ajax would be happy with either outcome.

'My Elemental Spirits can either awaken a new Divine Talent or upgrade their existing Divine Talents.'

All four of his Elemental Spirits had already awakened Divine Talents. Therefore, no matter which Elemental Spirit consumed the fruit, it wouldn't go to waste.

'If an Elemental Spirit doesn't have a Divine Talent, there's only a fifty percent chance of awakening one.'

In short, those who were already strong could become stronger, whereas those who weren't would have to rely on luck.

'Such is fate.'

Ajax didn't bother worrying about others. Instead, he took out the Divine Talent Fruit and tossed it toward Protos.

That's right!

There were two reasons why he chose Protos.

First, Protos was the oldest among his four Elemental Spirits.

Second, and more importantly, Protos possessed the most powerful Divine Talent among his Elemental Spirits.

Therefore, if the second effect was triggered, his already powerful Divine Talent would become even more powerful.

'If not, I'll be happy even if he awakens a second Divine Talent.'

Either way, Ajax wouldn't be disappointed.

'But if I had a choice, I would prefer the second effect: upgrading his existing Divine Talent.'

Although having a second Divine Talent was good, upgrading an already powerful Divine Talent was even better.

'If upgrading his Divine Talent: Divine Elemental Tamer increases the number of Elemental Beasts he can control from one hundred to at least two hundred, or even more, it will greatly increase Protos's battle prowess.'

After all, each of those evolved Elemental Beasts possessed battle prowess of at least the Quasi-Divine Realm. As for their maximum battle prowess, there was no way to measure it exactly, but it was definitely beyond that of ordinary Quasi-Divine Realm beings.

Increasing the number of Elemental Beasts under his control would directly increase the strength of Protos's army.

"Thank you, Summoning Master!"

Protos excitedly caught the Divine Talent Fruit and immediately consumed it.

As soon as the fruit entered his mouth, a massive amount of Divine Energy flooded his body, flowing toward his soul and merging with his existing Divine Talent.

A dazzling golden light enveloped him as the mysterious energy began transforming his Divine Talent, making it even more powerful.

[The Elemental Spirit Protos has consumed a Divine Talent Fruit!]

[The special effect has been triggered! The existing Divine Talent is being upgraded!]

'Great... Great! Looks like my luck has returned!'

Ajax became excited when he saw that the special effect had been triggered.

A mysterious golden symbol appeared above Protos's head before gradually merging into his body, completing the transformation of his Divine Talent.

The entire process didn't take long. In just two minutes, Ajax received another system notification.

[The Elemental Spirit Protos's Divine Talent: Divine Elemental Tamer has been upgraded! Please check the details.]

'Check the details!'

Ajax hurriedly checked the details, and what he saw thoroughly shocked him.

[Divine Talent: Elemental Beast Tamer (Fire)]

[Effect: Any Fire-type Elemental Beast below the Divine Realm can be instantly tamed.]

[Note: The number of Elemental Beasts that can be controlled is directly related to the Elemental Spirit's cultivation.]

[Note: At the Peak Elemental Spirit Emperor Realm, the Elemental Spirit can control up to 1,000 Elemental Beasts, regardless of their strength.]

Although the name had changed, there was a massive increase in the number of Elemental Beasts Protos could control.

'T-thousand? From one hundred to one thousand straightaway?'

Ajax had expected the upgrade to increase Protos's control limit to two hundred or three hundred at most.

However, the number had increased tenfold!

How could he not be shocked?

'Haha... Haha!'

Ajax soon recovered from his shock and began laughing excitedly.

"If it were before, I would have had trouble finding so many Emperor Realm Elemental Beasts. But now, I don't have to worry about that at all!"

Filling all 1,000 slots in Protos's Elemental Beast Army wasn't difficult, as he could directly fill them with King Realm Elemental Beasts.

However, filling those slots with Emperor Realm Evolved Elemental Beasts was much more difficult, especially before the Fourth Round. But now, things were different.

During the Elemental Beast Rampage, the minimum cultivation level of the Flaming Monkeys attacking the participants was the Emperor Realm.

What's more, several high-level Emperor Realm Flaming Monkeys had appeared during the fifth phase.

Moreover, all these Elemental Beasts were coming to him, making things easy for him.

Thus, Ajax believed that by the end of the Fourth Round, he could completely fill Protos's thousand slots with Peak Emperor Realm Evolved Elemental Beasts.

Even if he couldn't find enough Peak Emperor Realm Elemental Beasts immediately, he could gradually replace the weaker ones with stronger ones.

'But let's not disturb the Elemental Beasts from the phases.'

After thinking for a moment, Ajax came up with a plan.

"Protos, we're going to be very busy from now on!"

While saying that, Ajax began evolving the captured Flaming Monkeys.

However, this time, Protos didn't kill them immediately.

Instead, he used his newly upgraded Divine Talent to tame them, filling his Elemental Beast Army.

Once Protos's army reached its current control limit, another hundred evolved Flaming Monkeys remained.

Those remaining Flaming Monkeys were quickly killed, allowing Ajax to collect more Divine Pearls.

Once the process was finished, Ajax gave Protos a new set of orders.

"Protos, when you go out during the next phase, release your control over any low-level Emperor Realm Evolved Elemental Beasts whenever you find high-level or Peak Emperor Realm Elemental Beasts. As for the ones you release, kill them."

Before each phase started, Protos would leave the cave with his Elemental Beast Army and hunt far away from the cave so that he wouldn't steal the prey from his sister.

Therefore, Ajax wanted him to focus on capturing the stronger Flaming Monkeys while killing the weaker ones to collect Divine Pearls.

After returning to the cave, Ajax could evolve those newly captured, powerful Elemental Beasts, further increasing Protos's battle prowess.

"Yes, Summoning Master!"

After accepting the order, Protos left with his Elemental Beast Army.
