Chapter 31 - Breakthrough

Chapter 31 Breakthrough

Nainai was scared out of her wits. Like an octopus, she wrapped herself around Luo Xin’s body and he couldn’t pull her away. Her thin and weak body trembled non-stop.

Hearing that there was a ghost, Allie’s face turned pale. She moved to Luo Xin’s side and grabbed the corner of his clothes.

Luo Xin was speechless. He said, “What era are we in? How can there be ghosts?”

Wait a moment.

It seemed that ghosts really existed in this

era.

It was a spiritual creature, but it had to meet very strict conditions. It was a monster and was very dangerous.

How could Yuezhi City have such a creature?

“What do you mean by a ghost? Explain clearly.”

Nainai Meow trembled non-stop, and she couldn’t even speak properly.

Luo Xin decided to go down and take a look.

Allie stopped him.

The little loli waved her hand, and the 12 magical girl figurines flew up and lined up downstairs.

They inspected the bathroom.

Five minutes later. “There’s nothing,” Allie shook her head.

Luo Xin pulled Nainai down from his back.

The cat girl hugged his thigh tightly and refused to let go. She shouted, “There really is a ghost. My body lotion flew up and then suddenly disappeared in front of me!”

“You must be mistaken.”

“How can I be wrong? I didn’t hear any sound! The body lotion disappeared into thin air! It must be a spirit!”

Nainai was agitated.

Luo Xin looked at Allie.

After investigating the washroom, Allie said, “The body lotion is on the table and the bottle is empty.”

“It was still half full earlier!”

Nainai was even more certain that there was a ghost.

Luo Xin frowned.

Did someone sneak in?

That shouldn’t be the case.

With Nainai Meow’s ability, she could easily grasp the sound of heartbeats within a hundred meters. By right, even the slightest sound made by intruders should not escape Nainai Meow’s surveillance.

He decided to go down and personally take a look.

He patted the cat girl’s head, signaling her to let go, but Nainai refused to leave him.

He had no choice but to carry Nainai down.

Allie also followed.

Luo Xin amplified his senses.

He released his ability slightly to strengthen the surrounding air.

As long as there was a foreign object, he could immediately discover it.

He walked to the end of the corridor and pushed open the bathroom door.

There was nothing here. The hot steam from the shower filled the entire space.

Luo Xin picked up the body lotion on the table and sniffed it. Other than Nainai Meow’s scent, there was no other smell.

He then carefully inspected the surroundings and searched the encampment.

There were no traces of any intrusion.

Luo Xin was a little angry. He knocked on Nainai’s head and said, “There’s nothing here. Are you still in a daze from your sleep?”

“I… I… I don’t know…”

Nainai was also confused. She wrapped herself in a bath towel and shook her head with uncertainty.

In the end, the matter was left unsettled.

They returned to their respective rooms to rest.

Late at night.

Luo Xin had just fallen asleep when he was woken up.

Nainai Meow screamed, “Save me!”

She was right outside his door and she even banged on the door with all her might.

Luo Xin opened the door.

Nainai Meow jumped into his arms and hugged him tightly, not letting go. She shouted, “Ghost! There’s a ghost in my room!”

The door on the opposite side also opened.

Allie walked out, rubbing her eyes.

Luo Xin and Allie looked at each other.

Luo Xin was speechless. He asked, “What’s wrong this time?”

Nainai Meow said fearfully, “Someone touched my tail! I can feel it very clearly! I think there was a woman talking too!”

Luo Xin frowned.

He doubted Nainai’s words, but the cat girl’s fearful reaction was not fake.

Was there really something in the room?

The three of them went to Nainai’s room.

The cat girl liked to be clean, so the room was spotless. Only the quilt was lifted, and everything else was normal.

Luo Xin started to check.

There was nothing under the table or under the bed.

He opened the wardrobe and took a quick glance, then immediately closed it.

This cat girl’s underwear is quite bold.

He turned the room upside down, but he found nothing

“Did you have a nightmare?”

“I…” Nainai Meow was confused.

“Go to sleep, don’t make a fuss over nothing,” Luo Xin said impatiently. Just as he was about to leave, Nainai Meow moved at the speed of light and hugged his thigh. She wailed and begged, “Don’t go! Sleep with me, I don’t dare to sleep alone!”

Allie was speechless.

She pulled Nainai Meow and said, “You can sleep in my room.”

“Alright…”

After sending the two girls back to their room, Luo Xin yawned and went back to sleep.

There was nothing unusual this time.

The next morning.

For the next few days, Luo Xin didn’t go out, nor did he apply for any missions from Ink Bottle. Instead, he stayed in the training room and focused on his training.

He spent 54,000 star coins to buy a batch of medicine he needed to breakthrough.

There were more than a dozen types.

Each of them had a different effect, ensuring the safety of his breakthrough.

Allie was busy making toys every day.

Only Nainai was doing an exorcism dance ritual.

Yes.

‘Exorcism dance ritual’.

The cat girl always said that she ran into ghosts, but Luo Xin and Allie had never encountered anything strange.

Nainai was surprised and flustered, but she returned to normal two days later. However, she was always suspicious and said that the encampment was not clean.

If it wasn’t for the fact that he couldn’t find a professional, Luo Xin would have found someone to check on her.

A week passed by in a flash.

The accumulation of Luo Xin’s spiritual power had reached its limit.

He chose to have his breakthrough in the training room.

After telling the two girls not to disturb him, he took all the medicine he needed and entered the training room.

He took the ten or so medicines in order.

After that, he lay down and digested the medicine.

A large part of the results of his daily cultivation was actually suppressed, and there was little growth on the surface.

All these pent-up results would be completely released after the breakthrough.

Every breakthrough was a hurdle.

His mental energy seemed to be locked in a shell.

Cultivators had to gather their strength to break through the seal of this shell and complete the transformation.

If he failed, he would suffer a severe backlash.

Fortunately, modern cultivation was more or less perfect, and there were enough drugs to protect them, so the probability of danger was extremely low.

Luo Xin was already used to it.

After the medicine took effect, he focused on his mental power and broke through the invisible shell.

Every time he attacked, it was refining his body.

The process was torturous.

After an unknown amount of time, Luo Xin let out a breath.

The distorted air around him dissipated, and the power he released was retracted. The shell that hindered the growth of his spiritual power was completely shattered. It could be released once after a long period of accumulation.

The total amount of his spiritual energy increased explosively, becoming 3.4 times more than his initial spiritual energy.

The strength of his spiritual energy had also increased by a level.

This strengthened his ability. The magnification became 0.005 – 150, and his range of control extended to six meters.

All his attributes increased by a small level.

He had officially entered the higher third-tier.

This was just a small hurdle.

It was considered a breakthrough within the level.

It could be achieved with the accumulation of time.

The real difficulty was the breakthrough between the major stages.

That was something that could only be achieved with talent and luck.

Luo Xin came out of the training room.

As soon as he opened the door, he saw a fake Allie standing at the door. When she saw Luo Xin come out, she immediately went up to him and asked, “Luo Xin, how is it?”

Luo Xin smiled and nodded, “Higher third-tier.”

“Congratulations,” said Allie, relieved.

The real Allie and Nainai Meow rushed over.

Luo Xin took back his watch from Allie and looked at the time. It had taken him three and a half days.

This was longer than he had expected.

He thought it would end in a day.

The timing was very unfortunate. The day before yesterday, the protection period of Team 233 had ended, and they were going to be officially assigned missions.

Luo Xin asked hurriedly “Were there any missions assigned to us the past two days?”

Allie replied, “There was a support mission. It was successfully completed. We received 30,000 star dollars for it.”

Nainai Meow said, “Big Sister Allie is super amazing! The toy army made a ruckus, and the monsters were dying one after another!”
