Chapter 2642. Signing the Contract
When Han Sen placed the second drop of blood before the God Spirit Touch, it didn’t behave any differently. It swallowed the droplet, then returned to its previous, motionless state. The four waited around for a long time, hoping something would happen. But there the bug remained, at the bottom of the canister, not moving an inch. If they hadn’t seen it swallow the blood, they would have believed the insect to be dead.
The man frowned. He had no idea what was going on. He picked up the God Spirit Touch again, trying to make sure there was nothing wrong with it.
“Weird. No matter how bad his skills are, it shouldn’t be possible for him to be entirely without an armor talent.” The man continued to poke and investigate the creature, but he learned nothing.
“Maybe the God Spirit Touch is simply too old, and it can no longer shed its shell?” Exquisite paused, then went on to say, “This God Spirit Touch is the very first God Spirit Touch that once belonged to the alpha, is it not? It performed tests here for much of the alpha’s life, and that was eons ago. Perhaps it really has finally succumbed to old age.”
The man shook his head and said, “When Bixi brought Yu Shanxin here, they conducted the test just fine. That wasn’t very long ago. Why would it suddenly stop working now?”
“Well, aside from that, what other possibilities can you think of? There is no way that Han Sen is lacking even a single armor talent,” Exquisite said. The man knew that was impossible, too. Without a four armor talent or above, reaching King class was impossible. If Han Sen was already King class, no matter how bad his talents were, he couldn’t have an armor talent less than four. “This is weird,” the man said with queer hesitation. He put out his finger and sliced it, releasing a thin trickle of his own blood. He let it bleed near the God Spirit Touch’s mouth to see if the creature reacted like normal.
The God Spirit Touch had been lying in the same spot ever since consuming Han Sen’s blood. It didn’t react to the man’s blood, at all. It was like it had become too old and numb to move a muscle.
“It really is growing feeble in its old age?” The man put his face close to the creature, staring at it in shock.
“It has lived long enough. It has lived longer than most ordinary God Spirit Touches. Its aging was to be expected, eventually,” Exquisite said.
