CHAPTER 106: CHAPTER 106: NEW FUNCTIONS UNLOCKED FOR TALENTS!

Lin Yi felt a sudden enlightenment.

Regarding Skill Specialization, he had actually encountered it before to some extent.

A glimmer appeared in Lin Yi’s hand as he took out a Breakthrough Magic Crystal.

This thing has three functions in total.

One is unlocking branch skill trees, and another is being able to increase the difficulty of the Descent Abyss dungeon.

Lastly, it can increase Skill Specialization Level.

"That’s right, the Breakthrough Magic Crystal."

"After you obtain Specialization Points, you also need to use this thing together to specialize skills."

"Just like skill upgrades, the enhancement of skill specialization also goes from easy to difficult."

"Moreover, the higher level the skill, the more Specialization Points and Breakthrough Magic Crystals it consumes."

"You will understand these once you obtain the Specialization Points."

"I can’t tell you everything at once, or you won’t be able to digest it, so you’ll have to slowly explore on your own."

"We’ve arrived."

Nangong Ling led Lin Yi to the solitary apartment complex at Nuwa Academy, letting out a long breath.

She had completed her task for the day and had a superb impression of this junior.

"Thank you, senior, I’ve gained a lot!"

Lin Yi sincerely thanked her.

"No need to thank me! This is all stuff you’re going to learn later anyway, I just told you a small part of it in advance, and it’s not very detailed either."

"Alright, junior, this is your single apartment. Remember, before 8 AM tomorrow, make sure to meet our Dean Ruoxi in advance. Ask her to enroll you in the Descent Abyss dungeon of the Swarm’s Heart. Don’t forget!"

Nangong Ling escorted Lin Yi to his residence, reminding him.

Lin Yi thanked her once more.

He swiped his student card.

Entered the apartment.

The whole day was spent rushing around; after entering Shenxiao, there was grading and dungeon runs for credit.

His Spirit was highly strained; only now did he get a moment to relax.

Lin Yi took a stroll around his personal apartment.

It was clear that this apartment had just been cleaned and tidied; the interior decor wasn’t luxurious, but it was warm and comfortable.

Before entering this single-house villa area with Nangong Ling, Lin Yi had also passed by the regular dormitory area of Nuwa Academy.

Most Shenxiao students can only stay in collective dormitories.

And the relevant facilities and comfort won’t be better than what he has now.

Most importantly, the privacy of the single detached villa is extremely high, according to Nangong Ling, only students with a rank of B or above are eligible to live there.

And you also need to compete with others.

The fact that Dean Lan Ruoxi was willing to directly assign such an accommodation environment to him shows that she holds him in extremely high regard.

After Lin Yi walked through every room in the apartment, he took a short rest.

Tomorrow, he will first deal with enrolling in the Descent Abyss dungeon.

Then Lin Yi plans to visit the Skill Specialization dungeon as well.

Before entering the Swarm’s Heart, he’s determined to boost his fighting power further!

...

A night passed.

The next morning at seven-thirty.

At Nuwa Academy, in Dean Lan Ruoxi’s office.

"I knew I wasn’t wrong about you."

"I didn’t expect that you could actually earn enough credits in just one day."

"Rest assured, last night, I already reserved a spot for you in advance."

"This Descent Abyss dungeon will open in three days; since classes haven’t officially started yet, many professors and mentors at our academy haven’t returned."

"During these days, you can run dungeons to enhance your specialization and equipment."

"Additionally, I’ve unlocked the top-level dungeon strategy access at our academy for you. You can now retrieve relevant materials from the library."

"The online strategies need approval from the tech department, but you should be able to check the strategies on your phone by this afternoon."

Lan Ruoxi sat cross-legged in the dean’s chair, her snow-white, voluptuous legs crossing each other, exuding even more charm.

A weight lifted off Lin Yi’s mind.

The reason he reported early this time was for the Descent Abyss dungeon.

Now that everything was settled, he just needed to wait a few more days for the dungeon to open.

"Thank you, Dean Ruoxi."

"I won’t disturb you any further."

Lan Ruoxi laughed softly, "I do hope you disturb me a little more. This office feels so big and cold, it’s quite lonely."

In conversation, Lan Ruoxi shifted her posture.

Perhaps in her office, her attire was not formal.

The partially concealing long white robe she usually wore, she had not donned today.

Instead, it was replaced by a bright deep-V, revealing her ample chest completely.

Lin Yi, who had a fully grown soul in his body, saw this and internally shouted, "Oh my god."

Dean, please show some restraint.

If he were a hot-blooded 20-year-old, how could he hold himself back!

"Hehe, you’re blushing."

"Come a little closer, don’t be afraid, sister will show you something even better..."

Lin Yi felt a little nervous.

"Damn, dean, are you serious?!?"

...

Several minutes later.

Lin Yi walked out of Lan Ruoxi’s office, letting out a long breath.

What’s with this feeling like he had just escaped from the Silk Cave?

Of course, Lan Ruoxi was just joking.

Nothing really inappropriate happened between them; the "good stuff" Lan Ruoxi mentioned naturally referred to her special buff skill: Sacred Hymn.

She was true to her words. As long as Lin Yi remained at her Nuwa Academy, she assured that Lin Yi’s leveling speed and skill point acquisition pace would outpace others significantly!

Not long after, Lin Yi arrived at the Dungeon Sanctuary.

With Nangong Ling’s introduction the previous day, Lin Yi now navigated with skill to the dungeon that could enhance skill and specialization point acquisition.

In fact, the Dungeon Sanctuary also marked the corresponding dungeon entrance signs internally.

[Skill Enhancement:]

[First-level Dungeon: Volcano Mansion - Skill Points]

[First-level Dungeon: Doomsday Siege - Specialization Points]

Lin Yi stepped into the light screen of the Doomsday Siege dungeon.

The next moment, he heard a system prompt in his ear.

[You have entered the dungeon: Doomsday Siege!]

[Due to your C-level rating, an additional aura effect appears in this dungeon: +15% Skill Specialization Points from killing monsters!]

In the sky, the blazing sun scorched.

A fierce wind howled, blowing through the abandoned city’s doors and alleyways, creating ghostly wails and howls.

This was a partially buried, completely deserted ruins.

Although there were no people, Lin Yi saw non-human entities.

They were zombies, expressionless and shuffling aimlessly.

Virtually indistinguishable from the zombie creatures in the Resident Evil movies.

[The first wave of zombies will attack in 30 seconds; please prepare!]

The announcement sounded, and Lin Yi understood the clearance mechanism of this dungeon.

The map of this dungeon practically comprises the refugee area not yet attacked by zombies where he is located, and his task is to fend off the zombie waves.

This dungeon is quite comfortable for farming Specialization Points.

Anyhow, all he needs to do is wait for the monsters to respawn and wipe them out with an AOE attack.

Thirty seconds later, the first wave of zombies respawned.

A total of 30 zombies rushed in, howling and screeching.

Ten Directions Thunder Prison struck down, and in less than half a second, all the zombies were laid to rest.

At the same time, Lin Yi received a prompt.

[You killed a LV.60 zombie and gained 10 Skill Specialization Points!]

[Due to the dungeon aura effect, you gained an additional 1.5 Skill Specialization Points!]

[Due to the Sacred Hymn effect, you gained an additional 1 Skill Specialization Point!]

[You can now use Skill Specialization Points and Breakthrough Magic Crystals to enhance the specialization level of your skills.]

[Ding! You have acquired your first Skill Specialization Point. Your talent: All Gods’ Grace has unlocked a new function!]

[All Gods’ Grace: You gain 1 Skill Point and 1 Skill Specialization Point per second.]
