Chapter 39 - Maiden's Promise

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Although the current situation made people feel hopeless, Yan Chong, who had almost recovered his spiritual force, quickly cast an invisibility spell on himself.

AGrade D invisibility spell was very effective for professionals below Grade B. As long as they did not engage in intense activities, they would not be discovered. As for the Silver rank close combat professionals who

were above Grade B, their five senses were already very sensitive to temperature. Within a certain distance, just the optical invisibility alone could not hide their senses.

On the other hand, the spiritual force of the Silver rank Mages could interfere with reality. They could sense it with a slight scan. Although he could not hide it from the other party’s big boss, no matter what, as a Black

Iron rookie, he reckoned that the other party would not take him too seriously.

On the other side. The three Gold Orcs were stunned for a moment when they saw the two people running out of the library.

“Why are there only two people? The detector shows that there is a Silver rank life form inside.”

“There are no Bronze rank professionals among the humans.”

“However, one of them is a Gold rank professional. Looks like we would not return empty-handed.”

“Uh, Gold rank flesh and soul, it should barely be able to arouse the interest of our Lord.”

“No, no, no. Our Lord will not be satisfied with a mere Gold rank. We can keep her alive and then obtain more useful information.”

“I can’t say for sure. They should have companions hidden somewhere else, hiding from the detectors.”

The three of them spoke with fervor and assurance, as if the two humans before them were already meat in their hands, and they could deal with them as they pleased.

Indeed, they had the right to be proud.

One of the red-haired orc was the Silver-Eyed Jade Rhinoceros Chieftain, ranked third amongst the major tribes of the alliance. As for the other two, the one-eyed orc and the orc with a long tail, they were elite

warriors of the Black Dragon Tribe, one of the five major tribes of the alliance.

The three of them had been through hundreds of battles, and they had achieved illustrious military achievements for the alliance. Their statuses were respected, and their horizons and strength were not something

that ordinary people could compare to.

They had never been afraid of anyone at the same cultivation level as them. Moreover, their side had a total of three top-tier Gold rank combatants.

“No, that’s not right!” Yan Chong suddenly frowned.

He had only used his perception to determine the other party’s strength. However, after he used [Reading] on the three Gold bigshots and eleven Silver rank bigshots, he realized that there was a Silver rank Ore with

black skin. His combat rating was A-!

Breath Holding Technique!

According to the Inheritance Knowledge, the strength of professionals could be sensed by others because any life form would emit light and information like a sun. When light shone on an object, it would reflect other

than the black hole. As long as it was not an absolute zero, it would emit heat radiation, which was an electromagnetic wave.

It was the same for life forms. Their soul essence constantly emanated mysterious fluctuations, which were known as the magnetic field of life. As such, most lifeforms had a limited lifespan. They could not reach the

rumored [Seamless Body].

The stronger the professional, the stronger the magnetic field of life! Therefore, after advancing to a professional, they were more sensitive to this and could sense each other. Only professionals above the Silver rank

could sense the general level of the other party.

Those who were weaker could only compare who was stronger and who was weaker between them. As for how strong they were, it was uncertain.

Although Yan Chong was only at the Black Iron rank, the various experiences and techniques he copied allowed him to roughly sense the other party’s rank without using [Reading]. And the Breath Holding Technique

was to change the direction of the radiation of one’s magnetic field of life, making it difficult for others to sense it or would instead sense the wrong information.

It was the same for Invisibility Spells. Low-level skills could change the direction of light refraction, while high-level skills could change the direction of heat radiation.

Of course, the only thing that changed was the direction. The intensity of the radiation emitted by the magnetic field, the intensity of the refraction, and the intensity of the thermal radiation could not be changed.

To put it simply, the person was still the same person. Nothing had changed. It just distorted your understanding of him.

The situation was even more dire! There were four Gold-rank enemies, and one of them was an old schemer. Although Yan Chong had already turned invisible and was standing behind Loli, he still felt like he had

nowhere to hide and was being seen through by others.

“Do I have to be so unlucky? I thought that following a Grade A big shot would allow me to freeload. I didn’t expect that she would be a walking human target! This world is too dangerous. I really want to hurry back to

Earth!”

At that moment, Loli moved. She pressed her palms together and looked up at the sky at a 45-degree angle. Her face was filled with faint joy, anticipation, and yearning. A beam of pink light fell from the sky and landed

five meters away from Loli.

At the same time, a copious amount of energy was poured into Yan Chong’s body. It was as if he had received 70 years of cultivation from the Unclawless Cliffs. Yan Chong could not help but moan in pleasure.

Battle Power: B-

Power: 9.8 (+8.2), Agility: 10.5 (+8.9,) Intelligence: 14.1 (+11.3)

Constitution: 11.0 (+9.0), Spirit: 14.6 (+12.0), Charm: 13.2 (+10.6)

Luck: 11.0 (+1.0)

Status: Healthy / [Maiden’s Promise] (Remaining time: 19 minutes 59 seconds).

This was Loli’s Grade A divine spell!

All of Yan Chong’s major attributes had received a tremendous increase. He directly skipped four minor levels and reached the early-stage of Silver rank! This was especially so when the hidden status of [Luck]

appeared for the first time on the status panel. This allowed Yan Chong to know his original Luck value—10 points.

Skills that could increase one’s luck were extremely heaven-defying. Even if it was 1 point, or 0.1 point, this was because it involved the domain of the gods—Laws.

Among the professionals, only Priests had such abilities.

However, even with a Grade B- combat power, it would not be of much help in the current situation. The most important thing was still to see how strong Loli was. To Yan Chong’s disappointment, Loli’s combat rating

only increased from Grade A to Grade A+.

“That’s true. I was overthinking. There’s a gap between Gold and Legendary. Not only in terms of strength, but also in terms of life.

“Actually, the combat power observed by [Reading] is usually based on the influence of one’s own skills. Divine spells are bestowed by the Gods and are rather special. That’s why it increased the opponent’s combat

power rating. It’s already not bad.

“How boring. It’s actually not a good thing to know the opponent’s combat strength from the very beginning. At the very least, it makes people lose their suspense. When facing an opponent stronger than oneself, it’s

easy to lose the will to resist.”

Yan Chong complained in his heart, hoping that things would change. To be fair, he was just an ordinary high school student on Earth.

“I want to go back to school. I want to prepare for the college entrance examination. No one can stop my passion for learning!”

On the side of Orcs.

“Divine spell?” A Gold Orc shouted.

“A Gold Priest is worthy of the attention of the Gods.”

“Things might change if we delay. Let’s quickly take them down!”

“Alright, the three of us will attack together! We’ll try our best to capture her alive. If it really doesn’t work, we’ll kill her. We can’t let her escape!”

As they talked, the three orcs moved, rushing toward Loli.

At the same time, the one-eyed orc pointed his finger and the sound of rushing wind could be heard. A golden beam of light shot out from his finger and was aimed at Yan Chong’s head..
