275 A New Goldfinger Item — A Premonition Prompt
“Alright,” he said.
Ling Yi noted this down.
“What about you, Shurou?”
“Oh… Hmm… Oh…”
!!
Lin Shurou stammered and could not say a word.
He looked down and saw that her eyes were tightly shut and her face was red. Her entire body was trembling, as if she was restraining something.
“Forget it, forget it.”
As expected, Ling Yi couldn’t bear to let her endure it. He gently pressed a seal on her lips and released the beast.
…
At noon.
Under the anticipation of everyone around the world, the player assessment officially began.
This time, the number of people who had signed up had reached 5.1 billion!
“With the Potential Crystal, we Shenxia people should be able to make up the majority of the people who will pass today.”
In the hall, Yunji said while watching the assessment on the TV screen.
The player assessment was a comprehensive assessment of the physical fitness, intelligence, luck, and other aspects of ordinary people.
After entering, the challenger had to choose one of the six paths to challenge by throwing the die. Each path had five stages, and if one were lucky enough to pick a path that was in one’s field of expertise, many people would jump with joy.
“Mm…” Ling Yi replied softly.
On the screen was the second stage of road 3 this month, a 500-meter long grassland corridor with a large number of lions.
Some of the challengers were hiding in the grass, planning to sneak over, while others were running at full speed, planning to rush over with their speed. There were even some who used others as shields. As soon as the lion got close, they would push the others away, and they would take the opportunity to escape.
However, among this group of people, there was a group of “mini supermen”. Their speed was two to three times that of the others, and they left the others far behind when they ran!
These people were the people of Shenxia who had used Potential Crystals to stimulate their potential and increase all their attributes!
“A few attribute points increase has given them a greater advantage than I thought.” Ling Yi furrowed his brows slightly. He had a bad feeling.
“Yup,”
Xia Wanqing, who was wearing a black veil, was carefully trimming his nails. When she heard this, she nodded, “When the Potential Crystal first appeared, the other countries had a huge reaction, but because they hadn’t seen the specific effect, they could barely suppress it.”
“After today’s assessment, seeing the huge difference between their people and the people of Shenxia, they will definitely team up and make a request to us.”
On the other side, Lin Shurou continued, “this time, it’s probably not going to be so easy to fool… It’s time to make a decision on whether to give them help or not–”
Before she could finish her sentence, Ling Yi heard a ‘beep’ in his ear. Someone sent him a message.
He opened it.
[Vermilion Bird: Are you watching the assessment?]
[01: You want to talk about the Potential Crystals, right?]
[Vermilion Bird: Yes. We have received news that the countries outside have already prepared to join forces to negotiate with us regarding the issue of Potential Crystals.]
[Vermilion Bird: We feel that it would be better to give them some spots.]
[01: No problem. You guys decide.]
Ling Yi didn’t care about the few attribute points that the Potential Crystal increased.
[Vermilion Bird: Thank you for your understanding.]
After closing the chat window, Ling Yi turned around and told the others the results.
Lin Shurou and the others nodded. They were not surprised by the result.
The assessment on the screen was still ongoing, but Ling Yi’s attention was drawn away from the assessment and shifted to the other two S-grade Self-Service Bags.
He hesitated for a long time.
In the end, he chose the two items, [Heavenly Broadcast] and [Premonition Prompt].
[Heavenly Broadcast (S)]: Able to transmit sound, images, words, and other information to a designated area within a radius of 1,000 kilometers.
[Premonition Prompt (S)]: After activation, when faced with certain choices, relevant prompt information will appear beside you. The prompt information will involve the future in 10 seconds at most. It can only be used 5 times a day.
Ling Yi thought for a moment and simulated the mutation of these two items.
He would give the original to Lin Shurou and the others, and use the enhanced version for himself.
After a while, he opened it again.
[Heavenly Broadcast (S): Sounds, images, words, and other information can be displayed and transmitted within a range selected by the user.
[Premonition Prompt (S)]: After activation, when faced with certain choices, relevant prompt information will appear around you. The prompt information will involve the future in 10 minutes at most. It can be activated for a maximum of 10 hours per day.
“Sh*t–”
Looking at the two items that he had conjured, Ling Yi smiled and was very satisfied.
The S-grade Heavenly Broadcast is an enhanced version of the A-grade Regional Flag. As for the Premonition Prompt…
“… It’s basically a golden finger!”
Ling Yi wasn’t sure how effective it would be. He needed to put it into practice before he could make a conclusion.
Thinking of this…
He quickly put the two items into his bag and activated the Premonition Prompt.
“Next…”
He scanned the entire livingroom.
It turned around and finally stopped at Yunji. She was sitting on the right side of the sofa, watching TV with her legs crossed.
Ling Yi’s eyes were focused on her. He let his thoughts wander in order to trigger the effect of the device as much as possible.
He didn’t expect it to really appear.
[You planned to touch her. She enjoyed it and even had the thought of ‘jumping’ you.]
“Mm…”
Looking at the notification in front of him, Ling Yi touched his chin and muttered to himself, “It’s giving me hints in the second-person, and it’s indeed information about the future.”
He shifted his gaze to Lin Shurou’s face.
[You planned to jump on Lin Shurou, and the other party is very cooperative. The both of you started to get comfortable.]
Lin Shurou’s name was in the notification, which probably had the same logic as the voice. Those he knows will have their names on the notification.
Ling Yi received another prompt.
He turned to look at Xia Wanqing.
[You planned to ask her to wash her clothes, and she obediently did as you said. As she could not find any clothes to wash, she came down to ask you again.]
“Mm…”
In order to get more information, Ling Yi got up and went to the courtyard. He looked around.
Seeing a rose in the garden, he reached out and tried to pick it up.
…
No information appeared.
“Oh…” Ling Yi sighed. “This thing won’t be of much use at home. It’ll only be of some use in a dungeon or other places.”
As he said that, he was about to hit the big tree beside him.
[You reach out and hit the tree, scaring the birds away.]
Ling Yi was speechless.
He stopped his hand that was about to hit the tree. He looked up and saw a few birds standing on the treetop. The birds’ light green feathers were mixed into the leaves, and if one didn’t pay attention, they wouldn’t be seen.
At the same time, he also discovered that the hints he was showing now were the corresponding future deduced according to the actions he was about to take.
It could be considered a ‘detailed’ and ‘heart-to-heart’ version of Fate Prying.
Of course.
It was impossible to make a conclusion based on these actions in the main world. As for the specific attempts, he would have to wait until the next time he entered God’s Path’s large world or a dungeon to make a more detailed judgment.
Ling Yi turned off the device and returned to the living room.
“You went to test the effects of the new device? How is it?” Xia Wanqing asked.
She had clearly heard what he had muttered a few moments ago.
“It’s alright.”
Ling Yi concluded and summarized, “I can’t test anything else in the main world… However, what it has shown so far should be quite useful in many situations.”
