Chapter 338: Chapter 205: The Nectar Wine of Witch Mountain Goddess (Thanks to Noah’s Ark all for the reward of the alliance leader) _1
[Star Glass:???]
[Star Glass: Don’t you plan to pay back the spirit essence?]
[Sword Casting Master: ...If you hadn’t mentioned it, I would’ve almost forgotten my three million-dollar debt.]
[Sword Casting Master: Now, I have some good news and bad news, which one do you want to hear first?]
[Star Glass: Good news!]
Lin Xun twitched his lips. His female boss wasn’t playing by the rules.
[Sword Casting Master: I decided to tell you the bad news first.]
[Star Glass:?]
[Sword Casting Master: Due to a minor accident at the Ceremony of Dedication, I probably won’t get the position of an agent.]
[Star Glass: What happened, did Amos uncover something?]
[Star Glass: If you exposed your information, immediately abandon the undercover mission!]
[Star Glass: No, hurry to the office!]
[Sword Casting Master: Team Leader Li, don’t rush.....I still haven’t finished delivering the good news.]
[Sword Casting Master: I can’t become an agent because Amos wants me to be the twelfth apostle...]
[Star Glass: ?????]
[Star Glass: Get to the office! Work overtime!]
...
Half an hour later, in the Bureau of Culture’s meeting room.
"...How long has it been, and you’re about to enter Level Five?"
"And why did Amos know before I did, do you not trust the organization, or do you not trust me?"
Li Xingyue, dressed in a fitted OL suit and with her arms crossed, looked even more fruitful as she stared expressionlessly at him.
"I didn’t get the chance to report to the leader, and Amos found it out..."
His female boss stared seductively: "I also have some good news and bad news to tell you."
"The bad news is that there are no legendary grade divinity tools left in the central office."
"Huh?!"
"The good news is that this divinity tool in my hand isn’t from the central channel."
A piece of item suddenly appeared in Li Xingyue’s hand.
It was a small grey ceramic jar.
[Rice Wine of the Witch Queen from Wushan (Legendary Tool): In this jar is the rice wine brewed by Yojing, the Red Emperor’s eldest daughter. The wine is sweetly brewed with ancient methods, containing a touch of the mysterious divinity of Yojing herself. After using it, you can gain one divinity point.]
Lin Xun was excited by his female boss’s unexpected move.
"I believe you must have felt it in your previous talent enhancement. It’s only laying the foundation for subsequent talent upgrades."
"In the +4 stage of the soul talent upgrade, there will be some changes. It will enhance your spiritual power..."
His in-depth discussion with Li Xingyue had been very fruitful.
After soul talent was upgraded to +4, it had reached a new stage, no longer limited to physical enhancement, focusing on spiritual power.
Although Li Xingyue didn’t explicitly state what changes there would be in the stages after +7, Lin Xun had a vague guess that it might have to do with the soul.
Regarding the New World and the game, Li Xingyue and Amos have the same strategy for him to practice well and conquer the new difficulty level as soon as possible.
Lin Xun returned to his rented apartment.
The diligent homemaker Valkyrie immediately put down her broom and handed him a pair of slippers.
"My female boss also hopes for my quick promotion. But vying for the position of Apostle is not easy. I’ll need her and Amos’s sponsorship to get to the top."
"Huh? Why do I get a feeling of having a foot in both camps?"
Lin Xun logged into the game and clicked on the divine object in the item column.
[You used ’Rice Wine of the Witch Queen from Wushan’ (Legendary Tool)!]
[You gained 1 point of divinity.]
When he opened the apostle panel, a little plus sign appeared next to his "Thousand Faces, Million Forms" talent that he hadn’t seen in a long time.
Without hesitation, Lin Xun clicked on the plus sign.
[You consumed 1 point of divinity, soul talent level +1!]
[Soul Talent: Thousand Faces and Million Forms +4: Your soul has a unique taste and embraces diversity. You can easily take on any body. Talent Effect: Greatly enhance your compatibility with any shell (+55%), shell slot +11]
The compatibility is still increased by ten percent as expected.
And the number of added shell slots became 11. Considering that the game initially had one shell slot, now his shell slots had reached 8/12.
For the foreseeable future, Lin Xun would not have to worry about not having enough shell slots.
With the upgrade of soul talent, he felt a surge of power raging in his mind.
The veins on his forehead bulged, his head pounded as if being hammered, as if something was going to burst out of his skull.
The intense pain was so unbearable that he clenched his fists and bit down hard on his teeth to keep from shouting out.
The pain got worse and worse.
Eventually, Lin Xun couldn’t take it any longer and fainted.
...
When he woke up, he found himself lying in a soft and gentle embrace.
The girl’s embrace was soft and ice cold.
Before Lin Xun opened his eyes, he ’saw’ himself half-lying on the couch, leaning against the Valkyrie.
The young girl was anxious but didn’t know what to do, so she just held him tighter.
His eyes shot open.
What he saw matched exactly with what he had perceived with his eyes closed!
"I’m alright."
He reassured the Valkyrie and closed his eyes again.
This time, he ’saw’ the Valkyrie sitting next to him. The wrinkles of her apron and the knot at her back were as clear as day, just like in close-up view.
Lin Xun moved his ’gaze’ to himself and immediately...he saw a handsome young man.
He tried to expand his ’field of view’ and found that he could only see things within two meters. Anything beyond that range was blurry, like mosaic-censored scenes.
