Fang You opened An Jian You’s status panel and saw that the girl’s skill ‘Gui Yu’ had improved from Novice level 51.1% to Novice level 84.4%.
Fang You: “???”
Was something wrong? Shouldn’t it have broken through to Proficient level in a flash?
He glanced at the notification, roughly, possibly… it was that Blue-grade skills were harder to train, and improving to Proficient level was much more difficult than White or Green skills.
But that wasn’t right either. An Jian You’s Gui Yu proficiency had been soaring, increasing by about 10% a day. He hadn’t expected…
“I originally thought An Jian You’s talent was very strong, but it seems I underestimated her.”
“If this were a Green-grade skill, and one that matched her affinity, wouldn’t it only take three days to cultivate a skill from Novice to Proficient level?”
This girl was too fierce!
With her talent, even without skill books, she could probably learn compatible special skills one by one. It was a shame there weren’t any available.
He should have An Jian You learn some basic skills when he had the chance, like swordsmanship or saber techniques.
It wasn’t like she had to fight evil creatures head-on, and she probably wouldn’t win. She might just shiver in fear and… gg. An Jian You naturally had no combat experience, and didn’t really need it.
But basic skills could improve physique, and a strong physique not only meant running faster when encountering danger, but also made Miss An’s life energy more abundant. And he felt that this kind of real-world skill could be learned with perseverance.
However, it still required someone to teach her.
Why wasn’t there an option for “self-learning basic skills” in the Apostle’s ‘Cultivation’ options? She could clearly train herself!
If there was, he could give An Jian You another autonomous learning mission. It would be tough, but this kind of training where the body moved on its own without the brain having to overthink it was a blessing.
At this moment,
An Jian You had already emerged from the ‘skill cultivation’ state, her eyes teary. Fang You understood these were tears of gratitude.
He had originally only wanted to give An Jian You one instance of Diligence and Effort, but it hadn’t reached Proficient level yet, so his ability as a mentorship mentor couldn’t be demonstrated. That wouldn’t do.
Seeing that the girl An Jian You was exceptionally talented and currently in decent condition, he chose to cultivate her again.
With the great battle imminent, An Jian You would have one more day tomorrow to scout and select Little Black number three if she improved quickly.
Besides, the wool came from the sheep.
“An Jian You’s efficiency today was extremely high, especially since I meticulously planned out the optimal route for her to eliminate evil creatures, minimizing wasted time on the journey.”
“She eliminated seven small evil creatures in more than half a day, mainly because they were relatively dense and located in more suburban areas. Three of them were quite powerful, not far from the strength of the construction site evil creature that day.”
But An Jian You had already switched to the new version of Little Black number one and was already not weak compared to these evil creatures. Under her amplification, she made short work of them, knocking them out in just a few moves.
The three slightly stronger evil creatures each dropped three White cultivation cards. Two were used for Miss An, leaving one extra.
Thanks to Miss An’s hard work, Fang You was finally living a relatively prosperous life.
…
“Am I… am I back.”
An Jian You lay half-reclined, her legs, clad in black thermal stockings, slightly curled, her eyes unfocused. It took her a while to come back to her senses.
Actually, compared to skill learning, these two instances were nothing compared to the previous ones. They weren’t as terrifying, just equally tiring, like running several kilometers.
Especially since she had just finished work.
This was like suddenly working overtime.
“But my Gui Yu seems to have gotten stronger. My suppression power has increased, and I can control stronger evil creatures. Also, the number of creatures I can control has increased from two to three.”
The change was huge!
She could now capture a Little Black number three, and this time she could choose a stronger one.
An Jian You understood her mentor’s good intentions. She might not have the willpower to train herself, but it was different when her body moved on its own.
Although… it was still so tiring!
Once the great battle was over, it wouldn’t be so tiring, right?
…
“Alas, I still lack skill cultivation cards. Otherwise, I really want to raise An Jian You’s Gui Yu to Master level.”
An improvement in Gui Yu not only meant an increase in control capacity but also an increase in the upper limit of the evil creatures she could control. The Great Wind Novel Network.
Initially, Little Black number one and number two, which An Jian You controlled, were quite ordinary, worth only about 0.3 or 0.4 Fate points.
If they were any stronger, control would become unstable, which was not conducive to actual combat.
After awakening, her mental power strengthened, and with her life energy, the control limit immediately increased to the level of 0.6 or 0.7 Fate points.
Now, with an upgrade, the upper limit was even higher, and with the amplification from her awakening ability… Speaking of which, An Jian You’s amplification effect was much stronger than the skill description, possibly due to talent influence.
The only drawback was that the amplified evil creatures had a higher energy level, and the pollution to the surrounding area also increased. In An Jian You’s eyes, Little Black number one was constantly emitting black smoke, looking terrifying. This couldn’t be resolved for the time being.
Now, An Jian You rarely released Little Black number one and number two, for fear of affecting her neighbors… During battles, she would summon them quickly and then recall them just as swiftly.
Overall, things were developing in a good direction.
Fang You clicked on An Jian You’s panel and returned to the main game interface. Through the combined efforts of An Jian You, Black Blade Brother, and himself, resources were now abundant.
“Ghost Crystals: 19”
“Fate Points: 28.6”
It was enough for the fourth Fate draw.
Although his original intention was to save some Fate points and draw when he had around 30, with the great battle approaching, there was no time to wait.
Fang You put down his phone, took a serious bath, and spent half an hour cleaning himself.
He then took out the newly bought incense and candles and offered them piously. “Oh, right. This time I asked the Investigation Bureau for some blessed Buddhist beads and talismans to study, but I forgot to ask for some incense and candles!”
Incense and candles were not regular items. He mainly thought that anything the Investigation Bureau gave him would be more genuine than what he bought on the street.
Drawing cards needed a sense of ritual. With a sense of ritual, he wouldn’t be too unlucky… probably.
He glanced at the probability of the fourth ten-consecutive Fate draw, took a deep breath, and said, “Come on, my divine ten-draw!”
The vortex of fate appeared again, flashing with countless figures.
There were people, and objects, seeming to speak, and seeming to fight. Fang You still couldn’t see clearly, only staring intently at the vortex, and saw brilliant light erupting from within.
“Obtained: Stamina Potion (White)”
“Obtained: Double Yield Card (White)”
“Obtained: Skill Cultivation Card (White)”
“Obtained: Skill Cultivation Card (Green)”
Oh, this was good! This was what he needed! But the items before were a bit…
As his thoughts soared, the light grew brighter.
Blue light! Purple light! Both appeared before his eyes.
“Obtained: Energy Potion (Green)”
“Obtained: Energy Potion (Green)”
“Obtained: Evil-Slaying Saber (Blue)”
“Obtained: Skill Cultivation Card (Green)”
“Obtained: Lantern White Robe (Blue)”
“Obtained: …”
