[Talent selection complete, difficulty set to Adventure.]
[Simulation begins...]
[Day 1: You led the Ant Tribe to poison and kill the Brown Bear, devouring its flesh, greatly strengthening yourself and the Ant Tribe.]
[Day 2: You led the Ant Tribe into the Ancient Tomb.]
[Day 3: The Ant Tribe stormed the Corpse-Nurturing Pool, annihilating the Corpse Beetle swarm. You activated the black orb and attempted to translate the language in the images using the Parrot Mimicry talent.]
[Day 4: You noted down some phrases, repeating them over and over, trying to understand their meaning.]
...
[Day 10: You arrived at a location and saw a rabbit with purple lightning leap from the grass, then run to another place. You recorded the spot where the rabbit disappeared.]
...
[Day 29: You lurked near your previous home, waiting for the Adventurers. After waiting a day, they did not appear.]
...
[Day 32: You led the Ant Tribe out hunting and unexpectedly encountered an Adventurer team. Outnumbered, you were defeated and killed.]
[This simulation lasted 32 days, yielding 96 Points, with a 32-minute cooldown.]
[You can permanently retain one talent, fixing it into the real world.]
"The Adventurers didn't show up in time?"
"Seems that the heavy rain caused deviations from the original timeline."
"If that's the case, I'll have to wait there longer before the Adventurers arrive."
Jiang Tian thought as he reviewed the simulation results.
He placed Parrot Mimicry into his talent slot and spent 50 Points to improve skill proficiency.
Then he closed the simulation panel and continued on his way.
...
After over half an hour cooldown, Jiang Tian started another simulation.
[Choose your talents: ...]
[Talent selection complete, difficulty set to Adventure.]
[Simulation begins...]
[Day 1: ...]
...
[Day 30: You waited near the jungle and heard voices from afar. You moved closer and saw two groups of Adventurers.]
[Day 31: You followed them closely, listening to their conversation and using Parrot Mimicry to try understanding their words.]
[Day 32: Still following...]
...
[Day 35: You were discovered by the Adventurers and killed after a battle.]
[This simulation lasted 35 days, yielding 105 Points, with a 35-minute cooldown.]
[You can permanently retain one talent, fixing it into the real world.]
"System, exchange for language data and skill information."
Jiang Tian said.
[Ding! Spending 60 Points to redeem current information. Remaining Points: 132.]
A stream of data entered Jiang Tian's mind, which he absorbed fully.
After a moment, Jiang Tian opened his eyes.
"From their words, they seem to be workers from a nearby mine."
"They came to the Ancient Tomb Dungeon for the treasure inside."
"But this information came from their comrade at the mine — the one they killed?"
Jiang Tian pieced together these fragments of information he understood.
"Could it be that the person killed by the Adventurers is a descendant of the black orb's consciousness?"
Jiang Tian speculated, connecting the orb's displayed images.
"To know the result, I must find out exactly what that person said before dying."
Closing the panel, Jiang Tian pressed on.
This simulation did not let him hear the orb consciousness's final words.
So he couldn't deduce the lightning artifact's location from the current language data.
He planned to listen to both groups' dialogue fully in the next simulation, then return to the Corpse-Nurturing Pool to activate the black orb.
...
During travel, Jiang Tian refrained from simulating.
Only after entering the Ancient Tomb, where the Ant Tribe was relatively safe, did he start the third simulation.
[Choose your talents: Stealthy (Green), Recorder (Green), Foodie (White)]
[Stealthy]: You habitually hide in shadows during actions, making it hard for others to detect you.
[Recorder]: You excel at recording, able to accurately reproduce heard words.
[Foodie]: You live for food and eat seriously.
"Stealthy?"
"This skill suits me following the Adventurers."
Jiang Tian selected two Excellent Tier talents and began simulation.
[Day 1: ...]
...
[Day 30: You waited in the grass; two groups arrived as expected.
From their conversation, you learned the young man was a descendant of the black orb's consciousness and said only he, bearing the bloodline, could unlock the treasure; otherwise, the full treasure was inaccessible.
The Adventurers disbelieved him and killed him outright.
You pondered the young man's words, realizing after many simulations you couldn't get the final address, so you believed the young man.
You summoned the Ant Tribe and carried the young man's body back.]
[Day 33: You brought the corpse to the Corpse-Nurturing Pool and dripped the blood essence into the black orb.
The orb absorbed the blood and emitted a dense black light. A black soul emerged, furious at the long-deceased body, then charged at you and possessed you. You died.]
[This simulation lasted 33 days, yielding 99 Points, with a 33-minute cooldown.]
[You can permanently retain one talent, fixing it into the real world.]
