Chapter 1686: Life Sense



Ning handed the hairpin over to the young woman after explaining everything he had hidden from her.

"My... grandmother?" she asked, confused.

"Yes," Ning said. "Don't tell anyone about this and don't wear the hairpin while you are outside. Anyway, this is what your father wanted. Wear it. He will be happy."

The woman left the room in tears but with a smile. And Ning smiled as he heard the 'Ding' of the system.

The panel floated in front of him, giving him 20 points in total. In addition to the nearly 40 points he had from helping the various people in the city as well as the few other quests he had come across along the way, he now has over 60 points.

And, once again, a whole new list of things was opened for him to buy, of which his eye immediately went to one that was listed as costing 50 points.

[Small Dimensional Storage: 50 points (1 of 1)]

Ning quickly clicked on it, checking to see how large it was. The Tiny one he bought for 5 points had 20 cm by 20 cm by 20 cm of space.

This one, however, was more than 10 times larger than that. It was about 45 cm by 45 cm by 45 cm, which when added to the amount he had bought previously, gave him exactly an eighth of a meter cube in dimensional storage.

Ning knew for certain that was the thing he had to buy, which would still leave him with about 14 points.

Another thing Ning noticed was a Scroll of Return, which allowed him to directly teleport over to any location he had previously been to. He could also take up to 3 other people with him, which was more than handy.

The map on the other hand was just something they couldn't have a substitute for.

Ning did not hesitate for a single moment after making the decision and bought Life Sense. Instantly, his points went down to 4, but he gained another sense to replace that. Instantly, he could tell there were over 150 people in the tavern at the moment. 10 of those were on the upper floor, and the rest were down at the tavern, drinking and having fun. Counting them all was not something he could do instantly, but he got a general idea of how many there were just through the sense itself.

To him, these people appeared like blobs of light in the void. There was no silhouette of these people, no way of him finding out if the person he saw was the same each time they left and came back within his senses.

One thing he did find out that he was thankful for was that the cows in the barn behind the tavern were distinct to him through the sense.

He couldn't explain how they were distinct, just that they were. He could even sense a cat lurking around and could tell it was a cat. Not a dog, not a bird.

It was quite fascinating.

He could see a blob of light in his mind close to him and turned to see Shara sitting by the bed, looking at the spear in her hand.

She noticed him turn around and looked at him. "What's wrong?" she asked.

"Nothing," Ning said, smiling.

"Aren't you gonna go down?" she asked.

"Down?" Ning frowned before realizing he had people waiting for him downstairs. It was only the evening before he left for the Lenes mountains, so there were more than enough people gathered here.

"Right, right. I've helped the woman, so I will go down," Ning said and walked out of the room, going down to see all the spirits that could help him still.
