Chapter 96: Chapter 94: Morning Star Tier! Great Venerable Red Fla Thunder Resonator
’Deciphering Holy Word Stones... sounds like a job made just for .’
"The Translation Departnt is full of old academics with frighteningly vast connections. Getting them to do you a favor can sotis depend on whether they take a shine to you." Old Xia’s voice was cold, as if he had lost out on this matter before and didn’t want to elaborate. He changed the subject, saying:
"If you can perfectly assu one of these professions, the boost to your Talent is astonishingly large, but almost no one can manage it. Forcibly assuming one doesn’t give much of a boost, but at least it still counts as having the profession."
At this, Su Chen could sense a faint excitent from Xia Hanshi. "But the Translation Departnt will certainly ignore you. When I get back, I’ll make a trip to the departnt and find a way to get a Saint for you."
"Thank you for going to the trouble," Su Chen couldn’t help but say.
Xia Hanshi composed himself and added a reminder, "Soone will be there to et you when you get to Ying Feng."
"You’re all heading out early this ti, so there’s still a while before the Judicial Court’s assessnt. Until then, you aren’t one of them, so you need to be careful."
Perhaps feeling this sounded a bit too cautious, Xia Hanshi added, "But if soone tries to push you around, you don’t have to be afraid, either."
"Understood." Su Chen nodded, sensing the concern in Xia Hanshi’s tone.
After seeing Old Xia off, the boarding ramp slowly closed, and the spaceship set sail once more.
...
’The Translation Departnt...’
Su Chen relaxed his stance. Without a Gravity Chamber, the efficiency of his Body Refining Technique had dropped significantly, but his ditation Technique continued to run at high speed.
He trained until he felt light-headed, only then stopping to rest. Inevitably, his mind returned to Old Xia’s words.
’I have my panel. With a single glance at one of those Holy Word Stones, I can learn all the information about a profession. I’m definitely more capable than all the Translators put together.’
’As far as my panel is concerned, the more professions I acquire, the better. The more professions I have, the higher the chance of triggering that unique emotional state.’
’Even if I can’t trigger it, they could still co in handy in a pinch, like that ti with the Black Tuo Followers.’
’The Translation Departnt seems like a perfect fit for ,’ he mused.
’Still, this ability to discern professions with a single glance can’t be exposed. I’ll have to play the long ga.’
The environnt on the spaceship was safe enough, so Su Chen ditated deeply and soon fell fast asleep.
...
The rest of the journey after leaving the ruins was uneventful. Su Chen steadily consud his Potions, and after a good half-month of travel, the ship finally approached Ying Feng.
「The day before their arrival in Ying Feng.」
In his room, Su Chen clenched his jaw. From ti to to ti, gashes the length of a finger would split open on his skin, but strangely, not a drop of blood flowed out.
They would quickly seal shut again, the process repeating over and over until at last, no more wounds appeared.
[Gale Body Refining Technique has reached Master Level. Ability Gained—Gale’s Tenacity: Increases physical defense.]
His Gale Body Refining Technique had reached Master Level. He could feel the faint power of the wind flowing beneath his skin. He felt much lighter, and his skin had beco far more resilient.
[Wind and Thunder Envoy: 40%]
[Secret Thought Master: 38%]
[E-level Void Star ditation Technique—Mastery: 70%]
Since the ship had no Gravity Chamber and his Spirit Talent was slightly higher than his physical talent, the progression of his Secret Thought Master class was gradually catching up.
’Ti to switch to a new Body Refining Technique...’ Su Chen retrieved a stack of files from his Storage Space. It was the Body Refining Technique Yuan Chenyang had procured for him before leaving: the [Thunder Brilliance Body Refining Technique].
It used electromagnetic stimulation to strengthen muscle fibers, enhancing power and endurance by guiding electromagnetic Energy to perate the muscles. Each cycle felt like receiving an electric shock.
This Body Refining Technique was not compatible with the [Gale Hunter] class, so it required an additional condition: a source of electrical power.
If one’s own profession couldn’t generate the power, one had to rely on an external source.
There were only so many Body Refining Techniques available in Southwind City; none of them were perfect, and he didn’t have the luxury of being picky.
Fortunately, his Gale Hunter class had already evolved, allowing him to channel lightning himself.
He tentatively assud the stance and followed the instructions, drawing out the Elental Power hidden within his cells.
CRACKLE!
Electric arcs erupted across his skin. Su Chen felt a tingling numbness instantly flood his entire body, making him shudder.
It took a long ti for him to grow accustod to the sensation. He trained until he was utterly exhausted and then fell into a deep sleep.
Early the next morning, Su Chen heard a commotion in the corridor. There was the endless sound of footsteps, punctuated by suppressed shouts of excitent.
"...Can you see Ying Feng yet?"
"Out of the way, let
see...!"
"...So that’s Ying Feng? It’s so damn majestic..."
Ying Feng governed over one hundred and twenty-five cities similar to Southwind.
The main rulers of those cities had all lived in Ying Feng at so point, so naturally, they held it in the highest regard.
Influenced by what they constantly heard and saw, their subordinates and younger generations naturally developed a deep longing for Ying Feng.
"We’re finally here..." Su Chen heard the commotion and rubbed his stiff cheeks. He’d spent the better part of yesterday getting zapped, and his body still felt numb and tingly.
After splashing so water on his face, Su Chen left his room and headed to the public lounge. People were already crowded against the viewports on both sides.
Gasps of amazent rose and fell. Even the more mature individuals, though they managed to suppress their outward reactions, couldn’t hide their inner excitent, as revealed by their flushed faces.
Zhang Hengyu was among them, his eyes wide as saucers, his head practically sticking out of the viewport.
"Old Su, over here!" Du Yu, who had picked up the particular nickna for Su Chen, was standing by a viewport, shouting excitedly. "I saved you a spot!"
Seeing this, the people next to him voluntarily squeezed aside to make room.
"Ying Feng..." Su Chen’s curiosity was piqued as well. He wanted to see this magnificent galopolis, ho to over a hundred million people, for himself. He walked to the window and took a look.
Through a hazy mist, a magnificent tal galopolis was revealed. It was nestled in a vast plain, surrounded by a landscape of rolling hills and mountain peaks.
