Moreover, one of the reasons she settled here was because she was entrusted by Lu Youmei...
"Qingliu!" Qing gave the order. Although there were no obvious changes in the surroundings for the time being, Leng Yihan still sensed that something was wrong.
"What exactly is Qing's ability?" Although she had a clue, Leng Yihan still didn't know exactly what Qing's ability was.
"If I'm not mistaken... she probably controls plants or something, since I don't have any memories of her either," Lu Youmei said with a hint of helplessness.
"You two, come here." Qing walked onto the lake, turned around, and waved to the two of them.
Lu Youmei naturally went over without hesitation, while Leng Zhenmo was tricked by Lu Youmei into coming here, saying that there was a way to save Lin Yin.
However, Lu Youmei didn't know whether it actually happened or not. Anyway, she just needed to trick Leng Zhenmo into coming over, since she couldn't leave her alone at home. They didn't know how long it would be before they came back.
When Leng Zhenmo saw Lu Youmei walk over and stand on the lake, she was pulled up by Qing with some kind of power. After hesitating for a moment, Leng Zhenmo also walked forward and was then pulled up by Qing with energy.
"Please wait a moment, it will be over soon—" Qing said, waving her hand, and the two of them felt their feet being entangled by something.
Then, they were dragged down, and instantly the two were pulled into the water. However, it seemed that there was a green energy shield, so the water did not block their breathing. The two moved quickly towards the bottom of the lake.
"I have to say it's pretty exciting..." Leng Yihan complained. "If I were in control of the body now, I would probably have screamed by now."
"Hehe...would you like to try it now?"
"No, please don't do that..."
In the end, Lu Youmei did not switch places with Leng Yihan, and the two of them arrived safely at the bottom of the lake, which was the cave that Lu Youmei had mentioned.
"Is this it?" Leng Zhenmo, Lu Youmei, and Qing calmly said after passing through a layer of barriers preventing them from entering the cave.
"So you're not afraid at all..." Leng Yihan complained, though only Lu Youmei could hear him.
"This is it," Qing said to Lu Youmei.
"Now you can tell us where you're going, Leng Yihan," Leng Zhenmo said, stopping Lu Youmei who was about to walk deeper into the area.
“The border region,” Lu Youmei said, her expression unchanged.
“The borderlands…?” Upon hearing this unfamiliar name, Leng Zhenmo frowned. “Where is this place?”
"It's a very interesting place... all sorts of organizations and races are mixed together here. You can see everything, people and objects alike." Lu Youmei turned around and finally began to speak...
“I can only tell you more details when we go in. The reason is simple: outside the borderlands, we are not allowed to discuss too much about the borderlands, otherwise… the consequences would be unimaginable,” Lu Youmei suddenly said.
"...Just tell me one piece of information, and it must be true," Leng Zhenmo said in a cold voice.
"Is there any way to save Lin Yin here?"
"You're talking nonsense. She's my girlfriend," Lu Youmei replied bluntly.
She's my girlfriend, okay...
Leng Yihan complained again.
"Then let's go."
298. Aren't you tired of being tested every day?
"...Hmm...Where am I now..." Looking at the empty space around her, Leng Yihan stroked her chin and fell into deep thought.
They were walking perfectly fine inside the tunnel when suddenly a wall of light appeared in front of them. Led by Lu Youmei, the group walked into the wall of light.
Then...then Leng Yihan lost consciousness, and when she woke up, she was in this strange place.
Heh... But even so, I, Leng Yihan, can guess what's going on... According to the law that everything needs to be tested, this place is most likely the place where one needs to undergo a test before entering the border battlefield...
"Lu Youmei? Are you still there!" Leng Yihan called out in her heart a few times, and after finding no response, she entered her soul space.
……
Hmm, hopefully this is just a test. I guess what's here isn't our real bodies... just some kind of mental construct.
Looking at the empty soul space, Leng Yihan quickly came to this conclusion.
If not, my fragile little heart will break down...
Thinking this, Leng Yihan exited the soul space, then stood up and looked around the surrounding area again.
It was still so empty, there was nothing there.
"Excuse me... what about my test..." Leng Yihan said softly, almost as if she were complaining, but she didn't expect to receive a response from something.
[Confirmation complete. Are you ready to take the test?]
"Hmm?" Hearing that familiar notification sound, Leng Yihan couldn't help but frown.
Why does this tone of voice feel so familiar...? Have I heard it somewhere before...? Wait, this is my first time here...
[A second question: Do you accept the test?]
“I accept!” Leng Yihan said immediately.
[Confirmation complete: First round of trials in progress...]
"Wait... isn't this the system narration of the Oracle?!" Leng Yihan suddenly realized that the familiar tone and way of speaking were similar to the narration of the Oracle system.
"This place seems to be quite interesting..." Leng Yihan thought to herself as she began to prepare for the upcoming test.
It's like being tested all the time...isn't it annoying...?
[The test begins, Round One: Firepower Test]
As the system voice faded, a straw figure appeared in front of Leng Yihan.
"A straw man?" Leng Yihan was stunned.
[Hint: The space contains energy suitable for test takers. Use all your skills to attack it. The score you get in this test will determine your future path.]
This sounds so much like something out of a game...
Leng Yihan was thinking this, but he also heard a sentence said by the system.
Does it contain energy suitable for test takers...?
Leng Yihan's senses spread out, exploring the space. Sure enough, the space contained a huge amount of spiritual energy, which made Leng Yihan smile with joy.
Where there is energy, there is harm; this is the strength of Leng Yihan's spiritual abilities.
"Create Ice Spikes!" Leng Yihan said, using the spiritual energy in the air to begin creating ice spikes.
There is no limit to the speed of creation; the only thing lacking is energy. As Leng Yihan created ice spikes at high speed, a vacuum of spiritual energy even appeared around her, showing just how much spiritual energy she was consuming.
"Additional. Flight."
"Additional. Controls."
"Additional speed."
"Additional force".
Very good...perfect...nothing unexpected has happened so far...even the simplest add-ons are all in...so what's next...?
Leng Yihan stopped enchanting. She didn't know if she was capable of enchanting with offensive spiritual abilities.
The difficulty was too high, especially since he was already struggling to control dozens of ice spikes, and his soul power was starting to give out.
"...Add Ice Blast!" After briefly rethinking the energy structure of Ice Blast in her mind, Leng Yihan took a deep breath and added Ice Blast to the first ice spike.
No problem, it worked! This success surprised Leng Yihan.
Adding an offensive spiritual ability is not simply a matter of 'adding' it on. The addition of speed and force both affect the ice spike itself, so the structure of the ice spike must be 'disassembled,' then the structure of speed and force must be 'disassembled,' and then the two must be 'combined' before the addition can be successfully completed.
Speed and force have very simple structures, so Leng Yihan completed them with ease. However, the structure of ice explosion is dozens of times more complex than speed and force, not to mention the fact that it involves disassembling the already complex ice spikes, integrating them into another complex spiritual power, and then recombining them.
This was the first time Leng Yihan had successfully integrated ice bursts into ice spikes.
Okay... let's keep at this pace... we can definitely finish it...
Leng Yihan took a deep breath and, following the feeling of completing the first one, began to add the second ice spike.
Perfect! A flash of blue light appeared on the second ice spike, and the attachment was successful once again.
Then came the third and fourth. Perhaps Leng Yihan had grasped the trick, because she successfully completed the next six ice spikes. However, an accident occurred on the seventh spike, and the ice spike shattered in mid-air.
The failure rate gradually increased, and after all the strips were added, only 28 strips remained, whereas the original number was over 70.
It takes too much time... I'm still so weak...
Although she didn't have a particularly clear idea, Leng Yihan could still guess that she had spent a lot of time just now, taking so long to make only twenty-eight ice spikes... How shameful...
So let's see how powerful it really is...
"Go!" Leng Yihan gave the order, and twenty-eight ice spikes flew out at the same time, instantly piercing the straw man and leaving all the ice spikes on it.
[Damage detection; Tier 3...]
"Explode!" Leng Yihan shouted again, and the twenty-eight ice spikes exploded instantly, and the icy mist immediately filled the area around the straw man, obscuring Leng Yihan's vision.
"Heh...it seems I've discovered quite a few new uses...this might be useful for pricking acupoints, looks like there's something else to learn." Leng Yihan said, waiting for the system to give its new assessment.
Hmph, you're stupid, I have follow-up explosive damage.
[Damage detected: Tier 14, Level 5.]
"Hmm...it seems pretty good..." Leng Yihan muttered to herself, waiting for the second round to begin.
As a result, the system's voice never sounded.
"What's going on? I'm taking a test..." As soon as Leng Yihan finished speaking, the system immediately replied.
The test is over.
"Huh?" Leng Yihan was dumbfounded.
[Since the damage dealt in the first round met the preset standard, only damage of level four or higher for the target's current rank is required to pass all tests. Original predicted rank: 7th tier, level seven.]
"I see..."
You are now being transported back to the border battlefield. Please wait in place.
The system spoke again, and a blue magic circle appeared beneath Leng Yihan's feet—a teleportation circle so familiar…
As the teleportation array lit up, Leng Yihan disappeared into this vast space.
-
"Hmph... Leng Yihan, you're still so lucky today. Let me tell you, Lin Yin is saved. The reason is simple—I'm here!" Liu Yi opened his eyes after saying his chuunibyou words and found that there was no one in the bedroom where Leng Yihan had been.
