I Picked Up Talents in the Interstellar Battlefield

Gusts of wind buffeted the dozen or so giant eagles. There were human Spiritual Energy Users and Golden Oak Tribe Elf warriors on their backs. The two sides were clearly separated, indicating that the Elf Race did not want close contact with humans.
Qin Tian half-crouched, one hand gripping a feather to maintain his balance, his gaze fixed forward. With his superior vision, he could already see black dots flying in the extreme distance.
“Be careful, the corrupted giant eagles are coming.”
Erlong shouted a reminder. As soon as his voice fell, all the Elf present picked up their longbows, nocked arrows, and stood ready.
“Ya~~~”
Soon, a large flock of black eagles appeared in everyone's sight. Their size was similar to the giant eagles they were riding, but their feathers were ink-black, and their normally sharp eagle eyes were bloodshot, filled with cruelty and ferocity.
“Bang~~~”
Erlong released his hand, and a green light glowed on the long arrow, shooting towards the black eagle with lightning speed.
“Poof!” An arrow pierced the forehead of a black eagle. It fell straight to the ground without a whimper.
“Bang, bang, bang!” The Elf warriors followed suit, arrows raining down, enveloping the black eagles.
“Hoo~~~”
The black eagles flapped their wings, scattering their formation, and dodged the arrow rain with various agile maneuvers.
Not every Elf warrior was as powerful as Erlong. Their arrows posed little threat to the black eagles.
“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!” The black eagles began to counterattack. With a flap of their wings, a sky full of black energy smashed towards the giant eagles.
The giant eagles quickly dodged, performing 360° turns in the air, scaring the Spiritual Energy Users on their backs who quickly gripped their feathers, letting out screams.
They were Spiritual Energy Users, true, but even a Spiritual Energy User falling from a great height would be half-crippled if not dead.
Next, numerous black eagles surrounded the giant eagles, and streaks of black energy smashed towards them. The Elf Race launched a counterattack,
arrows raining down on the enemy.
The Elf mages raised energy shields, thoughtfully extending them to cover the human Spiritual Energy Users, protecting everyone from casualties in this round of bombardment.
However, looking at the tottering energy shields, everyone's hearts were filled with unease and worry. They had never experienced such an intense aerial battle, and they nearly fell off the backs of the giant eagles.
Even some who mastered long-range spiritual energy spells couldn't cast them now.
Someone shouted loudly:
“Descend! Let's fight them on the ground!”
Erlong naturally knew that descending was the best way to solve the current problem, but the black eagles continuously attacked the giant eagles' abdomens, blocking their descent path.

Unless more than half of the black eagles were dealt with, they couldn't land.
“Bang!”
Just as everyone was extremely anxious, a loud bang suddenly echoed in their ears.
A black eagle's head was blown to pieces, and its body rapidly plummeted.
“Bang, bang, bang!” The heads of black eagles, which had been freely weaving through the arrow rain, exploded one after another, blood splattering high into the sky.
Seeing this, everyone looked in one direction.
They saw a man in black holding a slender black rifle, continuously pulling the trigger with calm eyes, like an emotionless robot.
It was then that everyone realized that the black box Qin Tian had been carrying on his back actually contained a sniper rifle.
He was, surprisingly, also a powerful sniper.
Everyone shifted their gaze to the black rifle in Qin Tian's hand.
A sniper rifle capable of blowing the heads off spiritual beasts was undoubtedly a very rare runic sniper rifle.
“Awesome!”
Everyone cheered. Anyone could see how dangerous the situation had been just now.
If the black eagles' energy rain had broken through the shield, neither the Elf nor the human Spiritual Energy Users present would have survived. It could be said that this young and handsome sniper saved everyone.
“Good!”
Erlong watched as black eagles were headshotted, unable to help but cheer.
These black eagles were transformed from giant eagles, their bodies tempered by Evil God's power, making # Nоvеlight # them more agile, swift, and giving them the ability to control dark energy.
Aside from him, the archery of other tribesmen could hardly threaten the black eagles, which was why the situation had been so critical just now. But now, the black eagles' advantage was completely gone.
He recognized the weapon in Qin Tian's hand. In human terms, it was called a rifle.
“Bang, bang, bang!” Qin Tian headshotted them one after another with his rifle, and Erlong was not to be outdone, shooting arrows that pierced the giant eagles' heads.
They seemed to be competing, seeing who could kill faster and more.
However, anyone could see that Erlong's kill efficiency was significantly lower than Qin Tian's.
His archery was excellent, fast, accurate, and carried astonishing penetrating power.
However, Qin Tian's marksmanship was even more terrifying. He seemed to need no time to aim, his finger continuously pulling the trigger.
No matter how the black eagles dodged, the bullets always precisely blew off their heads.
“Bang~”
As the last black eagle died from a headshot, this thrilling aerial battle finally came to an end.
“Whew~~”
The giant eagles landed smoothly on the ground, and the Elf warriors and humans quickly jumped off. Everyone's gaze involuntarily fell on one person.
The man who had killed dozens of black eagles yet remained calm, as if nothing had happened.
“What is your name?!”
Erlong looked at Qin Tian and asked.
Qin Tian calmly said, “Qin Tian.”
“Qin Tian.”
Erlong repeated the name in a somewhat unskillful Imperial accent, nodded, and said,
“I will remember this name, Qin Tian. My name is Erlong. After the battle, the Tribe will definitely give you the reward you deserve.”
“Okay.”
Qin Tian nodded. To be honest, the treasures of the Golden Oak Tribe held little appeal for him, as the resources he had used were far superior.
However, even if he didn't use them himself, reselling them later would still be a considerable profit.
Although he currently had hundreds of thousands of military merits, the money in his bank account was only enough to make ends meet; it was quite difficult to splurge.
“Roar!!!”
Just then, a deafening beast roar came from ahead, making the leaves rustle.
Erlong's expression tightened, and he said, “Go, keep up.”
With that, he quickly moved, and everyone followed closely behind him.
During the sprint, Qin Tian glanced at his system panel.
After killing the black eagles, he gained a new talent.
However, this talent made him quite conflicted.
【Name】Evil Spirit Dark Energy (Green)
【Type】Passive Talent 【Description】Your body has been transformed by dark evil power, increasing various stats, and you can control Evil Spirit Dark Energy to fight for you.
Qin Tian could feel a very weak new energy within his body.
Evil Spirit Dark Energy and the curse power in his chest even felt somewhat of the same origin.
However, Evil Spirit Dark Energy was purer, while the curse power seemed to be a derivative of Evil Spirit Dark Energy, with some other wills and energies added to it.
Qin Tian's dilemma was that he was unsure if the appearance of Evil Spirit Dark Energy would worsen the curse. If it did, he wouldn't dare to kill high-level dark creatures anymore.
Never mind, he would take it one step at a time and see what the next opponents were like.
Qin Tian's eyes flickered, and he made a decision inwardly.
