Reincarnation NPC, but Arknights

The panel that appeared in front of Bai Ye's eyes showed that everything was normal.

Although he now possesses a physical body and is not entirely unaware of his own condition, Bai Ye's habits from his time as a player still make him prone to relying on the game system to confirm his status.

In the past, all kinds of abnormal states were reflected on the panel, which was very simple and convenient.

After transmigrating, Bai Ye didn't experience many chaotic things. There were only a few times when his sanity dropped to a dangerous level, but otherwise he was fine.

The worst abnormal condition is being poisoned by an unknown substance, or even losing a limb.

For players, the only option is resurrection and rebirth through the purple clay. Since transmigrating, Bai Ye has been extremely careful to avoid this. Having acquired a physical body, he naturally cannot experience the same life-and-death struggles as players.

According to the game, he's currently in "Steel Soul Mode," with only one life and one chance; dying would likely result in his character's data being destroyed. It's unclear whether Luna will have any other remedial measures. Bai Ye also doesn't know what his counterparts in other timelines did.

However, after learning the truth, he was even less able to send it, after all, he was not fighting for himself alone now, Bai Ye had Luna and an entire civilization and planet behind him.

If he were to die, Luna would be in a real bind. Fortunately, Bai Ye has already passed the most difficult beginner phase; now, it would be quite difficult for him to die, unless he were to suddenly decide to run off to the lair of the extraterrestrial demons…

……

The level has been updated since the points were reallocated. Every time Bai Ye sees this new level, he feels a pang of regret for the experience points he invested. But there's nothing he can do about it; the experience points haven't actually disappeared, they've just been transformed into attributes and are now with him again.

It's the same principle as spending money on in-game purchases.

Since I've already spent the money, this is the only way I can console myself.

The race field has also been unblocked, and it now reads "human".

However, this "human" likely refers to humans on Earth.

After all, Luna is an independent being born from the prayers and longings of all humanity, and she will only protect the species that created her. Bai Ye should also be considered one of her offspring.

Although he was imbued with the power of wind and had the nascent soul reside in his hand, Bai Ye was still a pure human in terms of bloodline and concept. He was not a giant beast, a beast lord, or any other messy thing, and had no connection with the gods, ancestors, or even pre-humans of Terra.

This is probably what Luna insists on: a kind of fastidiousness regarding the concept of humanity.

The entry for magical talent has been modified; it has been changed to the air element, one of the four elements of creation as explained by Luna before, the power of wind.

Looking at it this way, it seems like the style has improved, and Bai Ye is quite satisfied.

The entry for "spirit possession" has also been updated.

[Divine Possession]

Description: The sea goddess Isamara has possessed you, granting you certain powers. Is walking with a god a blessing or a curse?

God's name: "Newborn" Isamara, Corrupted Heart

Power: Migration - "Expand territory and plunder resources"

Effect 1: Right arm modification, increased physical strength, and improved adaptability.

Effect 2: Underwater breathing, underwater combat

Effect 3: It has a positional advantage over Sealings, but this can be negated by other initial beings.

Effect 4: Enhances the bloodline abilities of surrounding Sea Creepers/Deepsea Hunters.

Effect 5: Revelation. Your deep-sea bloodline will grant you the ocean's inspiration—its name is the Call of the Flock.

Note: "The ocean is the cradle of life, and the stars are our home."

……

It seems that the knowledge Bai Ye gained earlier was probably the so-called "Call of the Masses." That knowledge was rather esoteric, and since it was transmitted to Bai Ye's mind through the Hai Si script, translating it was a bit difficult.

However, it is precisely because of these insights that White Night's understanding of the deep sea is even deeper than that of Skadi and Ghost Shark, especially regarding Sealington and the Great Gang.

Bai Ye carefully analyzed the three elements that constituted his strength. First was his attributes; his various attributes exceeding 80 points already placed him at the pinnacle of what ordinary beings in Terra could achieve—the ceiling for mortals. Above that were gods and some monsters.

The second key element is naturally talent and authority. Accelerated thinking gives Bai Ye an advantage in one-on-one duels, while the Power of Wind enhances his magical resistance and mystical combat abilities. This authority also compensates for Bai Ye's weaknesses in ranged attacks and group combat.

As for the newly formed arm, it doesn't count. Its current effect is merely allowing Bai Ye to fight normally in the sea. It cannot be considered part of his normal power level.

The third pillar constituting Bai Ye's strength is his skills and techniques. His skills are self-evident; Bai Ye is virtually invincible in close combat. Even a pure martial artist like the Black Knight, whose skills honed through countless battles, is no match for Bai Ye.

Bai Ye is invincible in close combat, not only in swordsmanship, but also in unarmed combat and weapon combat. As long as he closes the distance, and the attributes are not too different, he has at least a 7% chance of winning.

Bai Ye does indeed know swordsmanship, but these techniques are not listed in his skill list, mainly because there are simply too many sword techniques. Whenever he has fought an enemy, Bai Ye automatically adds their moves to his accelerated mental database; these form the foundation for his calculations and pre-construction of enemy combat models.

In a sense, he was also a copy ninja.

As for skills and experience, there's not much to say. As a veteran player who has been playing since the game's launch, spanning six versions, Bai Ye has been fighting almost every day—against monsters, humans, and demons—experiencing countless battles in both PvP and PvE. This experience forms the basis for his ability to quickly adapt to combat.

After transmigrating, Bai Ye's accelerated thinking talent further enhanced this part of his experience. The accelerated thinking not only copied the enemy's sword moves, but also their fighting style, thinking patterns and action patterns, which were also quite valuable nourishment.

These three pillars, which subtly correspond to mind, body, and skill, constitute the majority of Bai Ye's current combat strength.

As for why it's not all, it's naturally because weapons and equipment are not included.

In reality, players like Bai Ye are exceptions; the vast majority of players' strength lies in their equipment set, and Bai Ye was no exception in the past. Being unequipped and fully equipped are two completely different concepts.

Only when Bai Ye, after transmigrating, reached a level of pure individual strength did the influence of equipment on him diminish to a minimum.

Of course, another reason is that his attributes are so abnormal that normal equipment can hardly meet his needs.

Patriot's weapons, shields, and even armor were meticulously crafted by the Ursus Empire and required constant maintenance. After he left the army to fight as a guerrilla, his weapons and armor became dilapidated. Fortunately, due to Oripathy, his physical condition was far from its peak, which ironically reduced the wear and tear on his weapons and armor.

Otherwise, given the intensity of combat at its peak, even if Patriot's weapons were incredibly robust, they would likely have met the same fate as White Night's "Arc Light."

For Bai Ye, the importance of equipment lies in its ability to better unleash his strength. For example, if Bai Ye were to collide head-on with a high-speed land warship with his bare hands and nitrogen armor, he would probably be fine, but he would be helpless against the warship.

If he had a sufficiently sturdy weapon, Bai Ye probably wouldn't have been thrown off the warship by now, but would have punched through it single-handedly.

This is the difference between being unarmed and fully armed.

Bai Ye secretly assessed his actual combat strength. He used the Ursus Empire's army group as his hypothetical enemy. If the Empire wanted to target Bai Ye, it would need to deploy at least an entire army group, equipped with a large number of heavy weapons, high-speed warships, and a large number of powerful warriors.

At the same time, Bai Ye must be obediently surrounded by the army group and unable to use his flight ability. In addition, he must not have the most suitable and robust special weapon in hand.

All that can be used is a regular sword and broken arcs of light.

In addition, Bai Ye cannot use the mass destruction bombs in his inventory.

Only if the above conditions are met can the White Night be successfully defeated.

"Wait, why should I be researching how to target myself?!"

Bai Ye scratched his head and closed the system panel.

The next step is to continue accumulating experience points and then try to learn some skills that he has been interested in before. Although Bai Ye possesses the power of wind, the process of developing these skills has not been smooth.

After all, he used to be a mentally challenged warrior with an intelligence of nine, and knew nothing about Originium Arts. Now, even with his considerable talent, he mostly used it with great force, and the few derivative techniques he developed were only researched with the assistance of Rhodes Island's sorcerer department.

Bai Ye decided he needed to study more; conventional Originium magic was no longer suitable for him, and its compatibility with his talents was not high. Bai Ye planned to start with the ancient sorcery of the Sarkaz, the tower magic of Letania, and the mysterious celestial arts of the Great Yan to develop his combat abilities on the mystical side.

……

Although the word count seemed quite long, the above thinking and sorting didn't actually take Bai Ye too much time. With the help of accelerated thinking, he quickly sorted out his thoughts.

"Well... actually, we should just do what we're supposed to do."

Bai Ye has already figured it out very well.

Yes, Luna calling him a savior is certainly inspiring. But ultimately, his general direction wasn't wrong before; it's just that now he has a clear goal and direction, and he's no longer lost.

Apart from that, it seems that nothing has changed from the past.

As Luna said, just keep doing things his way.

"The Adventurers' Guild should be established soon. Players really need to come together to achieve greater results."

Bai Ye pondered for a moment, then walked to the door of the room and opened it.

……

Then--

As the room door opened, Miss Ghost Shark fell backward to the floor...

"??"

Bai Ye looked at Laurentina lying at his feet with a puzzled expression.

What's going on here?

What happened?

Well, the normal explanation is that Miss Ghost Shark fell asleep leaning against her door, and then when the door opened, she collapsed.

It seems quite normal and scientific...

What a ghost!

Why would a ghost shark sleep in front of its own door?

The rooms were clearly arranged...

What exactly happened last night?

……

Bai Ye was a little confused for a moment.

However, Bai Ye couldn't take his eyes off the nun in front of him.

Although I had known for a long time that Laurentina had a great figure, she had always worn a nun's habit in the past, which concealed her sexy body.

The girl had taken off her nun's habit to sleep, wearing only a thin nightgown on her upper body and her lower body completely exposed, her long, fair legs fully revealed to Bai Ye's gaze.

Seeing this this morning was quite a shock...

Bai Ye stuck out his tongue, memorized the beautiful scenery before him, and then reached out to pinch Laurentina's cheek.

"Shark, wake up!"

"Lauren Tina! Shark!"

Bai Ye pinched his face while shaking the Ghost Shark.

Then she noticed something even more interesting: because the hem of the pajamas was quite short, it couldn't completely cover the top of the thighs. Looking at the partially visible area, Bai Ye realized that Ghost Shark didn't seem to be wearing panties.

"So daring?" Bai Ye couldn't help but mutter. So the girl had a habit of sleeping naked...

"What's so bold?"

Suddenly, Miss Ghost Shark opened her eyes.

Startled by the sudden awakening, and knowing Bai Ye's restless eyes and guilty conscience, he was taken aback. He quickly averted his gaze, pretending nothing had happened, and took a step back, saying, "Nothing... Is your room uncomfortable? Why are you sleeping in the hallway?"

"..."

"..."

"Uh...wait?! Oh no!"

After a moment of silence, Ghost Shark became unusually panicked. She looked down at her clothes, then covered the hem of her pajamas and fled as if running away.

However, because she was dressed so scantily, Bai Ye still managed to see half of the girl's buttocks exposed...

"What's going on here... Titi, this is all due to uncontrollable forces..." Bai Ye was still sighing after getting the benefit.

However, it was quite interesting to see another side of Miss Specter; it turns out that even a usually composed girl can be so panicked...

-------------------------------------

"I actually fell asleep at the entrance of White Night?! And without even wearing panties?!"

Ghost Shark hurriedly ran to his room, where the humidifier was still running, making it much more comfortable than outside.

But Ghost Shark showed no interest in enjoying herself. She frantically paced around the room, searching for the clothes she had carelessly lost the day before.

The water stains on the sheets hadn't completely dried, leaving obvious marks. Seeing the marks she'd left yesterday, Laurentina blushed again.

I never expected things to turn out like this...

Just then, Bai Ye's voice came from the doorway. He knocked and asked, "Shark, are you alright?"

Upon hearing Bai Ye's voice, Ghost Shark calmed down, perhaps having hit rock bottom. She hid her panic and calmly replied, "I'm fine now. I must have been mentally unstable last night and sleepwalked again..."

She was surprised that she could actually say something that only Hoshiguma would believe, and then she changed into a new pair of panties. Then she picked up her nun's habit and wrapped herself up again.

To be honest, although she had regained her senses, she still had a special fondness for this nun's habit. However, she had even designed a dress for herself. Rhodes Island was currently commissioning it, but it was still not finished.

After washing up and changing his clothes, Ghost Shark stared with dead fish eyes at his bed sheets and the map on them.

Despite being in a state of water shortage, the marks on it seem that the water output is quite large.

"I need to tone it down a bit more in the future... no, I should probably do this in the bathroom. I never imagined that a deep-sea hunter would have such a heat cycle..."
