My Salvation Game Became true?!. Chapter 75 – Chapter 75: Chapter 75: The Stats of Mage Ming Deng

Chapter 75: Chapter 75: The Stats of Mage Ming Deng
 

“What is this!”

“So magical!”

She had just witnessed the astonishment of the newbies, and now it was her turn to be amazed.

Truly, our organization!

An Jianyou sized up the two trees in front of her, very special trees that looked different from ordinary ones upon first glance.

On the trunk of the tree to her left, there were faint red stripes spiraling upwards.

The fruits that grew on the tree also bore a light red hue.

On the trunk of the tree to her right, spiraling upwards were faint grey stripes, and the strange fruits it bore were also slightly different.

“These are Skill Fruits.”

“They can be considered as fruits that unlock the extraordinary.”

“They're used to enlighten the newcomers, giving them the foundation to embark upon this path.”

Fang You walked over and said.

He counted, there were six fruits on the Blade-Slash Tree to the left, and also six on the Mysterious Evil Tracking Tree to the right.

He raised his hand and released six threads of electricity, accurately striking the stems of the fruits.

One by one, the fist-sized fruits fell, landing in the wooden box he had prepared beforehand.

Next were the fruits of the Blade-Slash Tree not far away.

He actually also wanted to bring a chair over, or maybe climb up to pick the fruits, to be more stable, but… alas, this damned mentor's burden.

Fang You collected all the fruits with an indifferent air.

At that moment, after the Skill Fruits were plucked, the two trees visibly withered away.

In just a moment they had perished, disintegrating like grains of sand.

Left behind were two seeds the size of thumbtacks, quietly floating a couple of inches above the ground.

‘Skill Seed (Blade-Slash)'

‘Skill Seed (Mysterious Evil Tracking)'

‘Notes: …., current Skill Seed depletion rate 7%, growth cooldown time 167:59:59.'

“Mentor, you're busy, so I'm off to do a mission~”

“Wait a moment.”

Fang You called out to An Jianyou.

He remembered that this girl's mystery value had already… he opened his detector and took a quick glance.

“You've performed well recently, I will guide you to awaken a stronger power, but you must also take on more responsibilities to combat the ever-deepening darkness.”

An Jianyou was stunned for a moment.

She looked up and stood at attention, “Yes, Mentor!”

…

The two of them arrived at Training Room No. 2.

The training room had an enhancement for focused improvement, which Fang You thought might be somewhat useful.

While the girl was adjusting her state, he glanced at An Jianyou's panel, the Awakening prompt.

The success rate for Awakening was only 58%.

Lower than his, but not by much… he remembered that An Jianyou's first Awakening had a significantly lower success rate than his, and now for the second level, the gap had narrowed. That meant his guess might very well be correct.

The stronger the Mysterious Evil one killed, the more dangerous the mystery one embraced.

Another possibility was that the more mystery one accumulated, the more dangerous the awakening process… a standard line Awakening was the most appropriate.

When An Jianyou was ready, Fang You began the ‘Guidance · Awakening.'

This time, he didn't leave but stayed on the spot, observing with an expert-level Mysterious Evil Tracking.

Watching with his own eyes.

Of course, to prevent An Jianyou from feeling psychological pressure, he still kept a considerable distance, pretending not to be present.

Suddenly he heard,

“Aaaaahhhhhhhhhh!”

A rodent-like shriek echoed through the empty training room.

Her face continuously changed, looking like she was about to cry… no, she probably already was crying.

Crying and screaming.

Gray mist gathered around her then dissipated, then gathered again, like a tide.

About half an hour later.

‘Ding!'

‘Notice: Apostle of Fate ‘An Jianyou' has failed the Awakening, Spirit -10.'

An Jianyou had failed as well.

Fang You was silent, but not too surprised; there were plenty of instances in games where even with a 90% chance of failure, one could still lose, let alone with An Jianyou's success chance of only 58%, which was a toss-up.

He glanced at his phone again.

Yep, just like when he tried, the second attempt at guiding Awakening was more expensive after a failure, but the success rate was also a bit higher.

A little bit.

Failure was like a nightmare.

An Jianyou took a very long time to wake from that nightmare.

Feeling lost and dejected.

The mentor had led the way and bestowed an opportunity to grow stronger upon me, yet I still failed to seize it, disappointing my mentor's expectations.

Compared to disappointing my expectations though, what made An Jianyou feel more embarrassed was…

It seems she yelled again.

She yelled many times, very loudly.

Ugh!

Her face turned red, and her toes curled up.

The last time was socially mortifying, but this time it happened right in front of others, how will I face my mentor in the future, waaaaah!

An Jianyou covered her face, “Mentor…”

Fang You, having gone through similar experiences, had a good understanding of such matters and comforted her, “You're not the first one this has happened to, you'll get used to it.”

An Jianyou: “…”

Wah wah 〒▽〒.

The only consolation might be that only the mentor witnessed my dark history.

Upon reflection, the mentor granted the power to warriors of the Ember to combat Mysterious Evil, the power of Awakening. Maybe the mentor has seen many cases like mine.

Perhaps I'm just overly embarrassed for no reason!

Yes, that's exactly it!

An Jianyou comforted herself, feeling not as embarrassed but still disheartened.

The second Awakening failed.

She had heard from Bai Xue that the second Awakening is quite difficult, with many at the bureau failing and losing their lives.

This time, the mentor must have paid a great price to protect me, yet I still let him down.

“So, take the time to reflect on the process of the Awakening you just experienced, write down your insights, and then go get some rest.”

An Jianyou: “…”

Mentor, your way of consoling people is truly unique.

…

An Jianyou's tasks for today will have to be postponed.

She doesn't have enough Mysterious points to try for a second time, she'll have to wait a few more days.

Of course, Ember's finances are a bit tight.

An Jianyou's Awakening and her cultivation skill seeds directly cost 49 Mysterious Crystals.

It's only because the workers have been diligent these days; otherwise, we would be strapped for cash today.

He glanced at the inventory.

「Mysterious Crystals: 11」

「Fate Points: 73.2」

Mysterious Crystals are tight, but Fate Points are accumulating quickly.

…

Fang You left the base and came to the sixth floor window, from where he could see the open space downstairs.

A total of ten reservists-in-training were huffing and puffing as they ran on the field, doing weighted runs.

This was the most basic physical training, which also strengthened their willpower.

He was very curious and yet doubtful of how many would persevere and pass Black Blade's assessment.

Even though these people all possessed considerable potential.

Black Blade is just too strict.

Whether these people have the determination to keep going is also unclear.

Fang You stood at the window observing.

These unofficial members were gasping for breath, some clearly on the verge of giving up, but still pushed by the killing intent of Black Blade, they squeezed out their potential and kept running.

Brother Black Blade has a knack for this.

Among these people, one stood out from the crowd.

Even with a burden several times heavier than the others, he ran swiftly, kicking up a breeze.

Ming Deng, the Mage.

Rumored to have ties with the bureau and to be a master of profound Buddhist lore.

Indeed, a true master.

Completely convincing in his arguments.

His eyes flickered with a detective light as he looked towards the most robust figure among them.

「Ming Deng, Mage」

「Physique: 3.2」

「Spirit: 1.5」

「Mystery: 0.09」

「Skills: Basic Palm Technique, Basic Staff Technique, Basic Buddhist Lore」

「Potential Rating: Unknown (above Green)」

…

PS: Regarding the launch, it's still uncertain at the moment. If it can make it to Sanjiang next week, then it should be soon, but if not, emmmmm, so please continue to follow and support me~ ✿(.◕ᴗ◕.)✿~
