I Have A Divine Tree In My Heart Chapter 101 – The Opportunity to Apply for a Bodhi Leaf

Chapter 101: The Opportunity to Apply for a Bodhi Leaf

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Chief Shi had left the ward, but Lin Yao, who had almost recovered from his injuries, didn’t follow suit. Instead, he accessed the merit exchange app and logged in to his account.

[Lin Yao]

[Military Rank: First Class (non-staff personnel)]

[Merit Point: 800]

[Note: Lin Yao is a helpful citizen who has taken the initiative to pursue the enemies. As such, he has been rewarded with an opportunity to apply for gold resources.]

‘I have another opportunity to apply for gold resources now. The city seems to value me very much. Well, they probably think highly of my talent.’

It was not easy to attain opportunities to apply for gold resources. Lin Yao had obtained such an opportunity several times and had even had an opportunity to apply for diamond resources because his talent was top-notch amongst the millions of people in Ninghai City.

He was not tooting his own horn. Lin Yao had gotten the unanimous affirmation of the city leaders. He had that many privileges because he was a top genius. Ordinary people… No, even ordinary warlords didn’t have the chance to apply for gold resources.

One could already tell from the merit value, as it was very difficult to get merit points. The last time they’d entered the mysterious land, the Red Mountain Team led by Li Shan had gained a total of about 6,000 merit points. However, according to Li Shan, this quantity of merit points was the equivalent of the aggregate of their numerous missions in the past.

Furthermore, 30% of these 6,000 points would be shared with the family of the sacrificed soldier, and the remaining points will be shared among the entire team. As the leaders, Li Shan and the other two warlords would consider themselves lucky if they could get about 500 to 800 points each.

Therefore, how many merit points had Lin Yao gotten in order to obtain the opportunity to apply for gold resources?

5,000 points.

Yes, it was that expensive.

He had gotten 5,000 merit points on this occasion, which was what Li Shan and the others would earn only after making 10 trips to the mysterious land and going through 10 life-and-death crises.

‘A talented person enjoys very nice preferential treatment.’

However, Lin Yao had gotten it wrong. He had not been accorded great privileges because he was a talented person but because he was an exception. Ordinary bronze and silver geniuses would receive very few subsidies every month—a few thousand yuan and a couple of gold combat skills at most.

Lin Yao possessed two rare abilities of light and thunder and had mastered the profound meaning of Heavenly Thunder. He also had diamond potential. He was one in a million and would naturally receive superb privileges.

Upon looking at the merit value, Lin Yao instinctively thought of his energy value.

‘Yesterday, I discovered one… two freaks (the obscure woman and the alley freak) and killed a scarlet flower. This also counts toward protecting the city and making a contribution to mankind. I wonder how much energy I’ll get this time.’

With this thought in mind, Lin Yao sank into his Sea of ​​Consciousness and observed the energy value above the little sapling.

Upon seeing it, Lin Yao felt tempted again.

This could not be helped, as he had earned a huge gain this time.

He did not know how the calculations of the system worked. Perhaps the danger the freaks posed was too great. After a busy night, although Lin Yao had experienced several dangers, he had also earned astounding gains.

[Energy Value: 7,800 grams]

7,800 grams. Yes, it was that extreme. Tonight’s gain was akin to nearly a month of Lin Yao’s time at the orphanage.

‘Sure enough, little thieves are hanged, but great ones escape. Wrong. I should have said that killing one freak saves the lives of hundreds of people, so this is naturally regarded as a great service to mankind.’

The large increase in energy value had ignited Lin Yao’s desire, but he had already been forbidden from participating in the night patrols.

In addition, he would not do something stupid, such as becoming a lone ranger. He would be very irresponsible if he were to do that.

‘I have to become stronger as fast as I can. When I’m strong enough, Chief Shi will have no reason to stop me.’

With this thought in mind, Lin Yao accessed the merit system interface again and searched for the resources in it. He was looking for the Bodhi Leaf.

‘One can carry the Bodhi Seed everywhere one goes, and there is a certain probability of planting a Bodhi Tree successfully. This is undoubtedly a king-level resource, but the Bodhi Leaf is different. Although it is also difficult to grow, there are many leaves on a tree. In addition, it is nurtured by humans and the various kinds of resources used to cultivate it, so the requirements for exchanging the Bodhi Leaf have been greatly reduced.’

The Bodhi Leaf could not plant a sacred tree. It could only be used to make tea for improving one’s strength. Therefore, its price was much lower and ordinary people wouldn’t be able to plant a sacred tree with it. Nevertheless, Lin Yao was different.

He had a system. Although he could only plant trees, he could be considered the strongest in terms of planting trees.

Therefore, Lin Yao would be able to plant a tree if he had the Bodhi Leaf. Of course, he would need energy for this process.

This was also why Lin Yao had used his opportunity to apply for diamond resources to trade for the Angel Gem. Having the seed of the tree was not enough. Lin Yao also needed to have the corresponding energy value.

‘The merit value is obviously better than the opportunity to apply for resources, and it also comes with some special items. The Bodhi Leaf should be available, right?’

As for why the merit system was better than the ordinary exchange system, Lin Yao understood the gist of it. There were many channels to obtain ordinary opportunities to apply for resources. One could get resources in exchange for a huge sum of money, outstanding talent, or other resources. However, those who traded for these resources might not necessarily do their best for the country.

Some geniuses did not even want to fight after growing up and knowing about the freaks.

The merit system was different, though. This was something that could be obtained only after one had made contributions to the country. Every meritorious service was akin to a blood sacrifice. The more merit points one had, the greater one’s contribution to the country was. He was not simply talented. Therefore, there were better items available for an exchange.

The merit system did not disappoint Lin Yao. After some searching, he found the application to exchange for the Bodhi Leaf, but he felt helpless after looking at the description on display.

[Bodhi Leaf]

[Exchange Eligibility: Gold]

[Introduction: A leaf from the Tree of Enlightenment. It can improve the comprehensive ability of humans within a short time after drinking it. After long-term usage, it can assist in the breakthrough of techniques and combat skills.]

[Note: Please note that the Bodhi Leaf is currently out of stock.]

‘It’s actually out of stock. Forget it, I will do this when I find a way to trade for it. I can exchange one leaf with one opportunity to apply for gold resources. I can apply for it now, and by the time I advance to become a warlord and attain a quantity of tree species, I should have gotten the Bodhi Leaf.’

After finding what he wanted, Lin Yao didn’t remain in the hospital.

What he didn’t know was that… while he’d been looking at his merit and energy value, Chief Shi, who was leaving at a quick pace, had bumped into Captain Li and the policewoman. Captain Li had been smoking numerous cigarettes and the policewoman was wearing a depressed expression.

“Your team didn’t suffer any casualties this time. You should be rejoicing.”

“What’s there to be happy about? This all happened thanks to Ah Yao. Aunt…”

“Yes?!”

“Chief Shi, can you persuade Student Lin Yao to stop participating in the night patrols?

“I’m afraid he will die a premature death.

“Well, based on Student Lin Yao’s talent and character, this is not the time for him to participate in the patrols. It will be a loss for the city if he dies.”

“Is this the decision your team made after deliberating over this?”

“Yes.”

This answer made Chief Shi laugh.

“Not bad. You didn’t hold onto Student Lin Yao because of his talent. He has made a group of good friends.” After making such a compliment, Chief Shi left immediately. As her figure gradually grew smaller, the two captains heard a voice.

“Needless to say, the city has already forbidden Student Lin Yao from participating in dangerous missions, so you guys don’t need to worry.”
