Chapter 721: Fateful Choices



[Assessment in progress... Assessment complete. Due to the Hunter\'s Talent Awakening Mission completion of 95%, Talent Ability will awaken by 43%, with a maximum initial awakening of 45%.]

[Hunter, please ensure your safety during the Talent Awakening process. You will be extremely vulnerable during this time.]

[Talent Awakening commencing.]

As the prompts from the Reincarnation Paradise concluded, Su Xiao felt a searing heat on his arm where the Reincarnation Mark was located. His body began to weaken, and his consciousness grew heavy. After a few seconds, he collapsed onto the bed. This was a protective mechanism of the Reincarnation Paradise, as Talent Awakening was by no means an easy process.

In a pitch-black space, Su Xiao\'s consciousness awakened. Everything around him was pitch-black, and he couldn\'t discern how much time had passed. Suddenly, a streak of light flashed before his eyes, resembling a shooting star.

Boom!

A deafening roar echoed in Su Xiao\'s ears. It wasn\'t a shooting star but a meteorite.

The meteorite shattered the dark space, and white light streamed in from the cracks in the space. When the white light illuminated Su Xiao\'s body, he felt as though his body was melting like snow.

"Su Xiao... Su Xiao, wake up! You\'ll be late."

A faint voice called out from his ear. Upon hearing the familiar voice, Su Xiao abruptly opened his eyes.

His mouth moved, and after a moment, Su Xiao shook his head. He was in the process of awakening his Talent Ability, and everything he saw was a recollection of his past.

Indeed, his surroundings changed again, and Su Xiao found himself standing on a street. His body had shrunk, and he appeared to be around 7 or 8 years old.

Drip! Drip! Drip!

The shrill honking of a truck horn reached Su Xiao\'s ears, and he involuntarily turned his head to see an overloaded red truck hurtling towards him.

Squeak~

The truck\'s tires screeched against the asphalt road, leaving two black tire marks. The monstrous truck\'s front collided with Su Xiao.

Bang.

His world spun, and Su Xiao\'s vision reddened. In his youthful body, life was gradually slipping away.

Thump, thump...

The tiny heart in his small body continued to beat. The heartbeat resounded loudly in Su Xiao\'s ears.

Su Xiao knew what would happen next. Although he had been sent flying by the truck, it should have been a certain death, but he miraculously survived. He couldn\'t remember the exact reason, as he was too young at the time. Perhaps if the injection during his hospitalization hadn\'t hurt so much, he might have forgotten about being hit by a car altogether.

Thinking about it, Su Xiao chuckled. Why was the Reincarnation Paradise showing him these memories? Just when he couldn\'t figure it out, the scene before him surprised him.

Young Su Xiao lay on the road, and there was a pool of blood beneath him. The pale-faced slightly chubby driver knelt in front of him, filled with guilt and remorse. Just as Su Xiao was about to die, a \'seed\' within him awakened. It started repairing his broken internal organs caused by the collision. Strangely, his external injuries remained.

[Detected Talent Seed activation above 20%. Repair complete. The Reserve Contractor has been rescued from the brink of death. A total of 3943 Reserve Contractors were selected in this batch.]

Familiar words floated in the air. These were the standard prompts from the Reincarnation Paradise, but the onlookers of the accident didn\'t notice these words.

Seeing this scene, Su Xiao finally understood why the Reincarnation Paradise was showing him this memory; it was the process of him gaining his Talent Ability.

Some people possessed innate Talent Abilities, while others awakened Talent Seeds later in life. Su Xiao belonged to the latter category.

Compared to those with innate abilities, the Talent Abilities awakened from seeds were somewhat weaker.

However, the strength of the Talent after entering the Reincarnation Paradise also depended on the individual\'s life experiences. Clearly, Su Xiao fell into the category of an unfortunate life.

In his misfortune, he gained a stronger Talent Ability.

Su Xiao\'s surroundings changed again, and when his vision cleared, he found himself in a wide corridor.

This corridor seemed to stretch endlessly. Su Xiao stood up from the ground and looked around.

The surroundings were pitch-black steel passageways, sealed on one side and stretching infinitely on the other, with darkness at the end.

"Is this the Paradise?"

Su Xiao tried to ask the Reincarnation Paradise, but it didn\'t respond. After inspecting the surroundings, he realized that this passage was indestructible in some sense.

Helplessly, Su Xiao could only walk toward the endless side of the passage.

He walked without an end, and eventually, his legs felt as heavy as lead. Time and space lost their meaning here. He might have walked for only a second, or perhaps several years.

"What kind of Talent Awakening is this?"

Su Xiao sighed. Did he awaken a Talent for running away? Why was he constantly moving forward? His Talent should be related to support and growth.

Just when Su Xiao\'s legs had become so heavy that he could hardly lift them, the scene in front of him finally changed.

In the distance of the black iron corridor, a three-way intersection appeared. There were three symbols above these three passages.

The first passage had the symbol of a staff, or rather, a staff.

The second passage had the symbol of a shield. The shield emitted a deep blue light, seeming to combine magical power and defense.

The third passage had the symbol of a sword. The sword seemed to have just beheaded an enemy and was dripping with blood.

"Fate... is in your hands."

A powerful and majestic voice echoed, causing the entire black iron corridor to hum. Su Xiao\'s consciousness even felt like it was about to shatter.

After a few minutes of recovery, Su Xiao breathed heavily. The owner of that voice must be a terrifying existence. He realized that even a mere glance from that entity could be deadly.

Setting aside the origin of that voice for now, Su Xiao looked at the three passages ahead. This was now a matter of choosing his direction for Talent Awakening.

The first passage seemed to be inclined towards the abilities of a mage. Su Xiao immediately ruled this out. The second passage was interesting. Judging from the appearance of the shield, it was likely a Tank-like Talent, something Su Xiao didn\'t expect to have. Although he was surprised, he wouldn\'t choose the path of a Tank; being a Tank was too frustrating since they couldn\'t fight back when getting hit. Slaying enemies was much more enjoyable.

As for the third passage, Su Xiao only gave it a cursory glance before heading straight for it. It was evident that the third passage was tailored for close combat.

As Su Xiao entered the third passage, a prompt from the Reincarnation Paradise appeared.

[Hint: Hunter, have you chosen this type of Talent inclination? Based on the Hunter\'s physical attributes, the chance of successfully mastering this Talent is 70%, the chance of death is 29%, and the chance of an unknown mutation is 1%.]

Su Xiao ignored the Reincarnation Paradise\'s hint. He had no other choice.

[Talent Activation in progress...]

[Talent Awakening in progress...]
