During this period, the most discussed topic on the Dream Realm Forum concerning the Dream World undoubtedly pertained to Player Talent.
Although the first Official Level Player, 'Chopper,' hadn't disclosed his Player Talent, subsequent Official Level Players gradually revealed more details.
They didn't reveal the Player Talent they eventually chose but did not mind sharing the other two they drew but didn't select.
Among these disclosed Talents were a green Talent, "Recovery," which could rapidly heal the injuries of Contracted Spiritual Beasts, a blue Talent "Enhancement" which temporarily increased a Spiritual Beast's Race Value by 10%, and a purple Talent "Field" that could temporarily change the environment to suit the caster's own Attribute and augment their Contracted Spiritual Beast...
Unfortunately, no red Talents had been revealed yet.
It's understandable, though, as the revealed talents were essentially the ones that were drawn but left unchosen; under what circumstances would someone give up a drawn red Talent?
Only if they had a better red Talent or a gold Talent themselves.
Such players, even if they exist, would certainly not disclose it.
Among the disclosed talents, purple ones were few and far between.
Merely glimpsing the tip of the iceberg of the Player Talent Pool had already sparked wild discussions and strong anticipation in the Dream Realm Forum.
The nine gold Talents were the talk of the town.
Although the specific effects of the Talents were unknown, you could see all Talent names when drawing from the Talent Pool; hence the names of the nine gold Talents had already been disclosed.
"Prayer," "Divine Cast," "Sun Needle," "Insight," "Holy Sanctuary," "Avoiding Disease," "Ascension," "Soul Fusion," "Traceless."
Although each name was more abstract than the last, speculations about the specific effects of these nine gold Talents never ceased on the Dream Realm Forum.
Especially the gold Talent: "Traceless."
This Talent suddenly dimmed in the Talent Pool yesterday, indicating its uniqueness had been activated, and a player had acquired it.
As a result, the 597 players promoted to Official Level that day were thrust into the limelight.
At this moment, encouraged by Yue Li, Qin Chuan logged out of the Water Flower panel.
[Player Level: Official Level]
[Player Talent: To Be Drawn][Draw Talent]
[Achievement Wall: 12/1000][View]
[Contract Slot: 1/2][View]
[Item Equipment Bar: 6/10][View]
[Item Carrying: 0/1][View]
[Skill Carrying] (Not set)
[Achievement Store][Countdown Closure: 23:58:36]
[07:51:24/08:00:00][00:00:09]
Compared to before, two new lines had appeared on the personal panel.
One line was the Player Talent awaiting drawing, and another was the refreshed Achievement Store.
A 24-hour countdown meant that for the next three entries into the Dream World, the Achievement Store would be available.
Having confirmed this, Qin Chuan temporarily set aside the Achievement Store, planning to delve into it the next time they entered the Dream World.
While the Dream World was still open, he wanted to draw his Player Talent first!
With this thought, Qin Chuan unhesitatingly clicked on [Draw Talent].
A screen appeared before him.
In the middle of the screen was a row of bright Talent entries, with several dim lines above and below. As Qin Chuan's hand slid across the screen, the top line of Talent entries fell and became bright, while the previously bright Talent entry dimmed.
Drawing rewards through scrolling of entries...
Qin Chuan glanced at the [Start Drawing] below and understood.
In the corner of the screen, there were two blinking icons, one a question mark that, when opened, revealed detailed introductions about Player Talents, exactly the same as those previously disclosed by the Special Affairs Group.
The other, resembling a pond, opened up to reveal the names of all the Talents.
The top part with eight bright and one dull golden talents instantly captured all his attention.
He hoped he could draw one of them.
Qin Chuan silently prayed and then pressed the "Start Draw" without hesitation.
The words on the light screen scrolled rapidly, with various colors flashing before his eyes.
Qin Chuan was tense to the extreme until the words finally settled.
However, seeing the content of the words clearly, his expression darkened in an instant.
"Temporarily raises the Race Value of the Contracted Spiritual Beast by 5%~10%, the stronger the opponent, the greater the increase, lasting for 5 minutes, cooldown 60 minutes"
This was far below Qin Chuan's expectations.
What made it even more infuriating was there was a "Confirm Alternate" button below after drawing.
Can I just not confirm it?
"Water Flower, help me wash my hands!" Qin Chuan decided to try again.
Water Flower didn't understand why, but soon gathered a stream of water to wash Qin Chuan's hands.
Yue Li couldn't help but chuckle nearby, "Did you draw something bad?"
"The first was green. I still have two more tries, let me try again." Qin Chuan had a face that screamed "I'm definitely not unlucky."
Soon after pressing "Confirm Alternate," Qin Chuan started his second talent draw.
"Contracted Spiritual Beast's healing skills have 100% increased healing effect."
It looks like washing hands did have some effect, at least the talent he drew was blue.
But after carefully looking at the specific effect of the talent, Qin Chuan's face darkened even more.
If he really had to choose between the two, he'd rather pick the green one he drew first!
One more chance! The last chance!
Qin Chuan looked at the "Start Draw" button lighting up again, but his hand trembled in mid-air, not managing to press it.
For the last two draws, he could still hold on to the slim hope of having a chance.
But this time, he had no new opportunities left.
Yue Li stopped laughing, her expression turning sympathetic, "Also unlucky on the second try?"
"Yeah." Qin Chuan responded sulkily.
Seeing Qin Chuan's hesitation, Yue Li sighed softly, "Maybe take a break and draw later."
"Maybe." Qin Chuan temporarily exited the talent draw interface.
At this moment, he completely dared not press draw, and the good mood from his recent breakthrough had disappeared.
Seeing Qin Chuan's mood, Yue Li thought for a moment, then suggested softly, "Why not try the bug draw method?"
"Hmm?" Qin Chuan blinked, "Does Dream World have bugs?"
"Day before yesterday I saw a post where a player said they pressed draw right when the entrance to Dream World was closing, and the next day when they logged in, they found they had drawn a Purple Talent; their other two draws were green."
"In many games, there're rumors about timing the draw." Yue Li looked very serious, "Even if there's no bug, there must be some metaphysics involved."
After hearing Yue Li's words, Qin Chuan pondered.
He didn't believe the example Yue Li brought up would be a bug, as the Purple Talent could easily be explained by sheer luck.
But this example sparked a moment of inspiration in his mind.
What would happen if he drew a talent during Time Stop?
Now, Time Stop had accumulated nine seconds, and drawing a talent could take about two seconds.
He felt that spending two seconds for this experiment was acceptable.
