She threw out a bunch of questions one after another, successfully diverting Ling Yi’s attention from their previous topic.
“This is a [Light Barrier], an ‘S’ grade barrier. It’s a gift from someone.”
A barrier was something that was used to protect an area.
It was fundamentally different from the [House Protection Talisman], which only protected one building.
They were two items of the same type.
!!
The [House Protection Talisman] is mainly used to protect a resident’s house, and sometimes people add other things to help with its protection.
However, in large places such as schools, hospitals, department stores, and so on, the [House Protection Talisman] couldn’t meet the desired needs and expectations.
In such a situation, a barrier was more suitable for adequate protection.
“Don’t we have your talisman to protect our house? Do we still need a barrier?” Lin Shurou blinked her watery blue eyes and asked curiously.
Speaking of this, she recalled the magic of Ling Yi’s talismans.
In her memory, all talismans were one-time use props that would burn and disappear after one use.
But somehow, the talisman he had stuck in his bedroom was still hanging since it had been triggered the last time.
“That’s why I said it’s a gift.” Ling Yi shrugged his shoulders. “Besides, it’s better than nothing. At least this courtyard is protected now, and you can water the flowers in peace.”
“That’s true,” Lin Shurou nodded slightly. She wanted to say some words of thanks, but she swallowed them back.
‘You’re being too polite if you say that.’ She reprimanded herself in her head.
At the end of the day, the barrier’s ability was the same as the talisman. They all provided a giant shield.
Different enchantments were only different in some minor features.
[Wind Barrier], for example, provides additional protection from storms. Another example was the [Fire-Proof Barrier], which prevented an open fire from appearing within the barrier.
On the other hand, Ling Yi had mutated the [Light Barrier]. So now it has the additional effect of “Automatically repairs the barrier when it comes into contact with light”.
It meant that he didn’t need to worry or even care when the barrier was attacked. It would recover on its own— it’s a very self-efficient barrier!
Other barriers would need to find several people to repair them when they were even slightly damaged.
“Oh, that’s right.” Ling Yi pointed at an iron sword that he casually stuck into the ground not so far away from them, saying, “That sword is a Divine Guardian Beast I just got. You don’t have to worry about it. It will attack if an enemy enters.”
“Huh?” Lin Shurou’s gaze followed Ling Yi’s finger and saw a rusty bronze sword stuck to the ground. The blade was buried about 10 to 20 centimeters into the earth. “Oh, okay!”
She nodded her head and smiled happily. “It’s good to have a Divine Beast to protect the house. This way, if someone breaks into the courtyard when you’re still in God’s Path, it will give me some time to run into the house.”
House-protecting Divine Beasts were an extremely unpopular existence.
They could only be bought from stores and were very expensive.
On top of that, they could only display their combat power in a fixed small range. Their combat strength was not particularly strong either.
For the vast majority of people, the price-performance ratio was highly unbalanced.
If it was triggered, it was still not as helpful as the player themselves.
It was tasteless, but it was a pity to throw it away.
…
At noon, Ling Yi used the Global Teleporter to go to Mt. Firmament and dripped his first drop of blood before returning.
He also dripped Lin Shurou’s blood on it too.
The news that the Eternal Spirit Guardian Monument would be placed on the summit of the great Firmament Mountain in Tianhe city had spread through the entire land of Shenxia. When Ling Yi arrived, countless people had already gathered around.
Under everyone’s watchful eyes, he unhurriedly completed his ‘task’.
Then, he returned through the ‘long-distance teleportation device’.
The mutation potential of this thing was only medium. After his mutation, it was no longer limited by the number of coordinates and times it could be used.
Initially, it could only mark two locations, and it could only be teleported between them once a day.
Now, he could mark a hundred or even ten thousand coordinates around the world and teleport between these coordinates an unlimited number of times.
The effect was indeed excellent!
However, to him, it did not have much of an effect.
After all, it was enough for an average person to travel once a day. Why would they travel all over the world…
…
In the living room, when Lin Shurou turned on the TV and sat on the sofa, watching the live broadcast of the ‘Spirit Guardian Blood Drop’ event, Ling Yi reappeared and moved to a wooden chair next to the window.
He opened a chatroom to talk to his “would-be Support Partner”.
[Nightingale_Chirping: Have you canceled your Support Bond?]
[01: Yes… How did you know?]
[Nightingale_Chirping: Hehe, because Ran Ran told us in the group that a more satisfying person had found her. So she changed her Support Partner.]
[Nightingale_Chirping: Are you disappointed? (◕ᴗ◕✿)]
[01: What’s there to be disappointed about? It’s just choosing a better person to help. Anyone would do the same.]
[Nightingale_Chirping: Is that so… I’m not sure.]
[Nightingale_Chirping: By the way, I have good news and bad news to tell you. Which one do you want to hear first?]
[01: How about the good news first?]
[Nightingale_Chirping: The good news is that I have just completed a monthly event and received an item that can allow me to achieve excellent results in the Support Trial Event: Storm Desert. So, I will be able to obtain a high-quality Support Skill, and you may be able to take advantage of it.]
[01: What’s the bad news?]
[Nightingale_Chirping: The bad news is that the event also gave me a lot of experience, and I’m now at level 37. We’ll have to wait even longer before we can be Support Partners…]
[01: Oh, these two are good news. To be honest, I’m already at level 30 and was just planning to do the Support Trail Event: Storm Desert myself.]
Naturally, he received a bewildered emoji from the other side.
However, his would-be partner probably assumed that he had also completed some event and received a rich exp reward, so she readily accepted his claim.
[Nightingale_Chirping: That’s great! In that case, why don’t we start the two-person trial?]
[Nightingale_Chirping: If we do the two-person trial together, we will have a greater chance of getting higher quality skills! Plus, there was a possibility of obtaining a ‘One Heart Contract’! What do you think? (ﾟ▽ﾟ*)]
The two-person trial was a trial where two people would carry out a Support Trial together.
The difficulty would be doubled due to the extra player.
Similarly, the final rating would be used to determine the grade of the Support Skills that the two could obtain.
Other than that, in the two-person trial, there was a certain probability of obtaining [One Heart Contract].
To make a long story short, this skill could deepen the bond between the two Support Partners.
[01: Uhm… That’s fine too.]
He only hesitated for a moment before agreeing.
He had seen the Storm Desert trial events dozens of times. Basically, he could complete the trial mission with his ability to control the wind.
Most people would receive an A-rank evaluation and the skill [Howling Wind].
However, he had the even more awesome [Aeolus’ Call]. He could say that he has an S-tier skill right at his fingertips.
Moreover, if he really wanted to obtain an item like the [One Heart Contract] someday, then he would have to do the two-person trial anyway.
This item could only be obtained from this event and could not be traded or given.
[Nightingale_Chirping]: Great! So, when are we going to the trial? I’m fine with any time.]
Seeing this, Ling Yi lowered his head and thought for a moment. ‘I’m already level 30. If I can successfully obtain that Support Skill today, I’ll have a high chance of defeating the Super Bubble Monster tomorrow!’
He had increased his strength by a considerable amount today. If he could get a second Support Skill and successfully go through this trial event with Nightingale, his combat power would increase by a lot!
He quickly made a decision.
[01: Let’s not delay any further. Let’s do it now.]
[Nightingale_Chirping: Okay!]
