Farming in a Parallel World and Becoming a God-Chapter 81 - 78 Efficacy_1

"My lord... you have arrived, woof..." The Dragon Seeker clumsily stood up, fumblingly paying his respects to Gaven while stuttering, "Thank you for your assistance... I will work doubly hard... to repay the Spirit Crystal Stones you gave, woof."

Clearly, some Gnoll had already explained to him the Dragon Seeking Ritual Ceremony and the matter of the Crystal Stones.

"The Spirit Crystal Stones are the common property of our tribe and need not be borne by individuals. You only need to follow orders and continue to work normally as before," Gaven cordially asked, "How do you feel about the Dragon Seeking Ritual Ceremony? Did you find your own True Dragon? What abilities did you unlock?"

"Very well, extremely well." When it came to the Dragon Seeking Ritual Ceremony, the Gnoll perked up and no longer stuttered, "I found it, a great... Bright Great Dragon... I bathed in its light till I just woke up. My ability is to make food and water clean."

Purify Food (Cleanse Water Source).

This is a supportive type of level one Spell-Like Ability.

Gaven had a clear understanding and proceeded to ask, "That’s good, your spell is very useful. What was your primary task before?"

"Mining," the Gnoll answered.

"Starting today, you no longer need to mine. Report to Supervisor Gos, and make full use of the ability your True Dragon has granted you, to help our tribesfolk purify more food and water sources," Gaven immediately reassigned his tribal role on the spot.

"As you command, I will make full use of it, this is the sacred mission granted to me by the Bright Great Dragon," the Gnoll declared, puffing out his chest proudly.

"Here... another Dragon Seeker has awakened here."

"Over here... one more has awakened..."

"This Dragon Seeker has woken up as well."

The end of the first Gnoll’s Dragon Seeking Ritual Ceremony seemed to be a sign.

Most of the Gnoll Tribe’s Dragon Seeking Ritual Ceremonies were completed that day.

The Spell-Like Abilities of the True Dragons unlocked by these Gnolls could be described as diverse.

Such as purifying food, Water Creation Spell, Detect Poison, detecting plants and animals, pacifying animals, charming animals, and so on.

If one were to seriously categorize them, there were traces to follow, and Gaven categorized them according to their practicality.

For those who gained the ability to purify food, Water Creation Spell, and Detect Poison, they were best suited to be cooks and stewards.

Those with the Divine Berry Technique and Healing Minor Injuries, of course, had to report to Anna’s Heal team.

For those with the ability to converse with animals, soothe animals, and charm animals, they were naturally the perfect choice for Tamers and would eventually join the Blackwell Tribe’s breeding industry.

As for those with Magic Stone Technique, Grease Spell, Hysteria Technique, Sleep Technique, and other supportive spell abilities, they were to be enlisted in the Guard Team.

Another dozen or so Gnolls completed their Dragon Seeking Ritual Ceremonies over the next two days, with the last being Cangya.

These Gnolls, whose rituals lasted an extra day or two, unlocked Spell-Like Abilities that were not very different from those of the first day, all able to find a matching level one Spell.

The only difference was in their usage frequency.

Those who completed the ritual on the first day could only cast the spell once a day and had to engage in Dragon Seeking Meditation to recharge afterward.

With each passing night, they gained one more opportunity to use it.

Beyond that, there was a marked difference in the control and application of these spell-like abilities between the two.

Take Cangya for example, his Concealing Mist Technique could manipulate the size, density, and direction to some extent, something those Gnolls who awoke on the first day could not achieve.

As for the improvement of their Dragon Seeking spell-like abilities with the rise of Professional Level, or through the practice of Dragon Seeking Meditation, that remained to be researched.

Moreover, even with the aid of Spirit Containers and Spirit Crystal Stones, the success rate of the Dragon Seeking Ritual Ceremony was not one hundred percent, with twelve Gnolls gaining nothing from it.

Gaven was already quite satisfied with a success rate of over seventy-five percent.

By coincidence, half of them had used Spirit Crystal Stones rather than Spirit Containers.

This further motivated Gaven to accumulate Spirit Containers; for the next Dragon Seeking Congress, he was determined to gather enough.

All in all, these thirty-seven Dragon Seekers directly brought the Blackwell Tribe’s Magic application into a whole new phase, where the shadow of spells could be seen everywhere. This would become more evident as the number of Dragon Seekers continued to increase.

The convenience had improved by no small margin.

Many previously unachievable or vexing tasks were now easily resolved.

For instance, Gaven had planned to herd Rock Sheep quite some time ago.

But he had been unable to act because, once startled, Rock Sheep would run up cliffs and escarpments.

There were many ways Gaven could hunt them, but bringing them down unharmed posed a challenge. Several attempts either failed or resulted in nothing but a pile of Rock Sheep corpses, so the plan had to be shelved temporarily.

However, after acquiring two Gnolls with the Charm Animal spell-like ability, the difficulty of this task plummeted.

Although there was still a question of success rates with spell-like abilities,

they could be cast every day. Bringing one back today, two tomorrow, and within a few days, the Blackwell Tribe had a small herd of Rock Sheep, which was bound to grow.

Especially since the Dragon Seeking Ritual Ceremony was just a beginning, and it was believed that more Gnolls would gain this ability later on.

At that time, it wouldn’t just be about herding Rock Sheep; wild boars, bison... any suitable animal would be charmed and lured into their tribe’s breeding pits.

A Gnoll Tribe that possessed the Dragon Seeking Ritual Ceremony was simply incomparable to its former self.

As soon as Cangya awoke, Gaven eagerly organized the second Dragon Seeking Congress.

The protagonists of this event were the Gnoll soldiers who had missed the last one, the group Gaven valued and had high hopes for, since it included more than a dozen who had attained Professional Levels, mostly first or second-level warriors, but who certainly had more potential than ordinary Gnolls.

Furthermore, they had undergone the most rigorous training in the Blackwell Tribe, and their bloodline strength was closely related to their physical bodies.

These Gnoll soldiers did not disappoint Gaven; twenty-four enlisted, participating in the Dragon Seeking Ritual Ceremony all at once, which was one-fifth of their ranks—a rather astonishing proportion.

In addition, five ordinary Gnolls also participated.

The comparison between the two fully demonstrated one thing.

The Dragon Seeking Ritual Ceremony was a process of accumulating breadth and depth.

The Blackwell Tribe had surged with so many Dragon Seekers all at once, taking the initial advantage and tapping into the elite. Considering the current ratio, that was relatively normal. Unearthing three to five individuals in one go was already quite impressive, and it was estimated that often, it would be a wasted effort, with not a single Dragon Seeker emerging from a Dragon Seeking Congress.
