After leaving the team, the adventurer ladies regretted it deeply Chapter 51: 51, Favorability Module

```

Lin Da's team was in need of mbers at the mont.

Just with him and Kafni, once they encountered the Snow Goose Adventure Team led by Lia in the Great Mystery Continent, they had to retreat.

But with Lulu added, it was different.

Lin Da fully believed that Lulu, once her 'berserk' skill was activated, was no weaker than Lia, or perhaps even stronger.

After considering for a while, Lulu slowly stood up from the ground.

"Are you a local adventurer from White Dove City?" she asked.

"Yes."

Lin Da nodded.

Hearing this answer, Lulu's expression relaxed, seemingly attaching great importance to whether it was a local team from White Dove City.

She glanced at Lin Da's extended right hand and, without taking it, said indifferently, "If you leak anything about , I won't let you off."

Did that an... she agreed to join the team?

Lin Da's heart relaxed sowhat and he said, "I never betray my teammates."

Lulu put away her beast claws and once again stuck her hands in her coat pockets, her face expressionless.

The wild wind tousled her light blue short hair and her fluffy tail swayed slightly with each step she took.

She pulled her hood up again and her figure, sowhat aloof, moved in the direction of White Dove City.

Lin Da and Kafni exchanged glances.

"Lin... Li Cha, do you really plan to recruit her into the team?"

"Your matter, she could just casually inquire about it in the city and it would be exposed, right? You can't hide it for long!"

"Co to think of it, what exactly is your relationship with that Beastman? What will you do in the future? I don't want to be accompanied by a killer every day!" Kafni's voice was as low as possible, her complexion extrely unsightly.

"There's always a way," Lin Da said.

"What kind of solution is 'there's always a way'..."

"It ans there's always a way!"

Lin Da quickly caught up.

A powerful oppressive force hung over him, a sign that Lulu was hurrying the two of them.

Catching up to walk parallel with the Beastman girl, Lin Da said, "Go into the city, to register the team?"

"You don't have a team?" Lulu looked at him unfavorably.

"We were short on people before."

Despite Lulu's dissatisfaction, Lin Da seed not to notice as he stared straight ahead and spoke calmly.

Lulu, choosing to ignore him, was silent for a while before saying, "Register as soon as possible."

"Okay," Lin Da nodded.

In fact, his mind wasn't on her at the mont,

a system prompt had just co through.

Ordinary prompts were usually displayed in white font, but this ti, it was in bold gold letters, clearly an important ssage.

Lin Da clicked to view it.

Beyond the three major sections "Personal Interface," "Equipnt Column," and "Skill Tree," there was now an additional section nad "Witch."

This section seed to be related to the skill 'Witch Purification.' Lin Da clicked on this module with a thought, prompting another system ssage:

[Detection of 1 recognized Witch, would you like to bind? Current number of bindings: 0/1]

What was the use of binding a Witch?

Lin Da entered his question into the system's Q&A sprite.

Beep beep beep.

After a series of chanical sounds, a system ssage popped up:

[After binding a Witch, by increasing the depth of Purification, different rewards can be obtained. These include, but are not limited to, Mystical Points, Skill Points, equipnt, Experience Points, etc.]

Purification... wouldn't be easy, would it?

Lin Da glanced at the Beastman girl beside him, her face cold and indifferent.

Although those little hands were in her pockets, not taken out, he certainly wouldn't forget how sharp a pair of beast claws could be.

To rashly Purify her would likely endanger his life.

In his mind, Lin Da questioned: What does 'depth of Purification' an? It's not sothing lewd, is it?

The system replied: [Whether it becos lewd depends on the host's thod of Purification; however, from an efficiency standpoint, deep Purification is recomnded—aning, high-trust Purification.]

Lin Da: High-trust Purification? What's that?

More chanical buzzing sounds.

System text materialized: [The higher the Witch's trust in the host, the more open her heart's door will beco, and the better the Purification effect.

Below are the different levels of trust:]

```

0 Stranger

10 Acquaintance

20 Nodding Acquaintance

30 Courtesy Greeting

40 Superficial Friend

50 Ordinary Friend

60 Good Friend

70 Deep Affection

80 Best Friends/Sworn Brothers

90 Wholehearted

100 Till Death Do Us Part]

Lin Da had spotted a blind spot.

He asked, "What does 'Sworn Brothers' an?"

System: #@%#￥…#….

Lin Da understood.

That is, forced Purification, disregarding the witch's personal will, and pulling it up from trust level 0 like a radish, all the way to 80.

After browsing the user manual for a while, Lin Da gained a preliminary understanding.

This Witch Purification skill would exert different levels of power depending on the witch's level of trust in him. If the trust was too low, then high frequency of contact would be necessary to enhance the effect of Purification.

In summary: Trust Level Contact Frequency = Purification Degree.

Among these, a trust value of 80 is a rather special tier, attainable by two thods: one is to slowly build trust from 0 to 80.

The second is simple and violent.

Objectively speaking, the latter is a shortcut.

But correspondingly, the price of taking shortcuts is terrifying, possibly forever locking at 80, unable to advance further.

Lin Da figured out the essence of the Witch Purification section, which, put plainly, was sowhat similar to the Favorability System.

Each ti a new level of favorability was reached, a reward would be granted.

In the reality of the Great Mystery Continent, this could an Mystical Points, Skill Points, gear...

Lin Da silently commanded, "Activate!"

System notification:

[Current number of witches recognized: 1, now bound, Witch Lulu]

[Current trust level: -10, Slight Disgust]

[Reward received: 100 Mystical Points]

Lin Da was stupefied.

There are negative trust levels?

Not only are there negative numbers, but rewards were given for them, too.

Lin Da felt like he had received alms from the system.

"I don't even know your na yet. If we're forming a small team, we should at least know each other's nas, right?"

Lin Da spoke to Lulu.

In theory, he 'didn't know' Lulu's na, so he asked and tried to establish a preliminary friendly contact with this cold Beastman girl through conversation.

Exchanging nas was undoubtedly the first step in building trust.

Lulu glanced at him sidelong and, probably figuring the request made sense, said indifferently, "Lulu*Fenard."

The na was real, the surna was made up.

Lin Da thought to himself.

"I'm Li Cha, and she is Kafni."

Lin Da did so introductions.

[System Notification: Witch Lulu's trust level towards you 1, current trust level, -9, Slight Disgust]

Seeing this ssage, Lin Da felt relieved.

Once he raises the trust level to the 30-point 'Courtesy Greeting', he should be able to propose Purification.

30 points, it doesn't seem like much,

But upon reflection, it is actually quite hard.

Given the current situation, Lin Da was worried that Lulu might sever his and Kafni's throats in the middle of the night, silencing them forever.

And Lulu was also afraid of the mysterious 'golden light' inside Kafni, worried that if she wasn't careful enough, Kafni might kill her.

Joining the team was rely a temporary asure; fundantally, they were still on guard against each other.
