Chapter 318 Debt and Indulgence

[red luan Number: 2]

[Connection Nature: Domestication Connection / physiological connection / Indebted Infatuation]

[Connection Depth: Lv.20 → Lv.25]

...

[red luan Identified: Yang Kexin]

[red luan Number: 3]

[Connection Nature: Value Contract / physiological connection]

[Connection Depth: Lv.21 → Lv.23]

...

It was incredible. Under the enhancement of the SSSS-Rank Talent, combined with the new connection (Indebted Infatuation), it actually increased by five levels at once?

Even Yang Kexin jumped two levels!

Yang Kexin also pursed her lips: "Don't do this in the future... I... I don't want anything to happen to you..."

Chen Yu nodded weakly: "Alright, hurry up. Let's try upgrading to C-Rank first and see what happens."

Time-type Talents are extremely rare.

Having spent two lifetimes drifting on the highway, Chen Yu knew Wang Mengmeng was the only example of a time-based Awakened.

The biggest flaw was that her level was too low, but Chen Yu could precisely bridge this gap through the returns from Song Xingmian.

In fact, Chen Yu had long pondered this. Since a release level card could cause a qualitative change in a Talent, it meant that the lower the level, the more potential and changes there would be in the future—like Li Mengyao's B-Rank.

But the one most suitable for a continuous rise was actually Wang Mengmeng's D-Rank.

Wang Mengmeng took a deep breath, clutched the grayish-white card in her palm, and closed her eyes.

Immediately after, a layer of misty light wrapped around her hand, layer by layer. However, this layer of light mist came and went quickly, lasting no more than three seconds.

When she opened her eyes, she excitedly began to recite: "Super Precision... Timing? The countdown error is reduced from 0.1 seconds to 0.0001 seconds. Up to three independent timers can be set, without interfering with each other..."

Chen Yu: "..."

Yang Kexin was also stunned.

Wang Mengmeng stared at the lines of text in the void, reading from beginning to end, then from end to beginning.

She bit her lower lip, and her eyes immediately turned red: "I'm sorry... I'm still trash."

Yang Kexin went over and hugged her: "It's okay, we can find the key!"

Wang Mengmeng leaned on Yang Kexin's shoulder, speaking with a nasal tone: "Brother Yu traded his life for this card to upgrade me, but I only upgraded to such a trash skill..."

Her tears were already flowing.

She raised her head and looked at Chen Yu, "Don't give me such expensive resources in the future; I don't deserve them."

[Connection Nature: Domestication Connection / physiological connection / Indebted Infatuation]

[Connection Depth: Lv.25 → Lv.26]

Chen Yu smiled faintly: "It's fine. You and Kexin turn around first and give me some time."

Wang Mengmeng was taken aback, and Yang Kexin was also stunned.

The two looked at each other and then simultaneously looked at Chen Yu: "No!"

Wang Mengmeng stuttered: "You... you can't consume any more of your lifespan!"

Yang Kexin also shook her head desperately: "We haven't finished searching that room; the key might be hidden in..."

Chen Yu shook his head, interrupting her: "It's too late. If we keep searching, even if we find the key, you will be old by the time you get out. I don't want you to be disappointed."

Wang Mengmeng's eyes turned red again, and her voice rose a little: "But that doesn't mean you should carry it all alone!"

Chen Yu raised his hand to stop her, his voice suddenly serious: "Be obedient. I told you to turn around, and you are not allowed to look back!"

Wang Mengmeng opened her mouth, then closed it.

"Oh."

Yang Kexin also had a complicated expression and turned around.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

There was another huge sound, and another round of earth-shaking tremors!

Wang Mengmeng and Yang Kexin dared not look back, but their hearts were bleeding!

Behind them was Chen Yu's trembling voice:

"I beseech the favor of the God of the Future; I will trade my lifespan again to exchange for a future!"

"Cough, cough, cough, cough!"

"Cough, cough, cough, cough, cough, cough, cough!"

About ten seconds passed.

When the two women turned back, Chen Yu was already lying on the ground, wearing a mask of pain.

"Brother Yu!"

Wang Mengmeng and Yang Kexin, forgetting even the rules and restrictions, rushed to Chen Yu's side.

[red luan Identified: Wang Mengmeng]

[red luan Number: 2]

[Connection Nature: Domestication Connection / physiological connection / Indebted Infatuation]

[Connection Depth: Lv.26 → Lv.27]

...

[red luan Identified: Yang Kexin]

[red luan Number: 3]

[Connection Nature: Value Contract / physiological connection]

[Connection Depth: Lv.23 → Lv.25]

Chen Yu suppressed his joy and took out a card.

This one was silver, obviously more exquisite than the previous one.

Chen Yu gave a bitter smile and handed it to Wang Mengmeng: "Believe in yourself. You can definitely do it; take us out of here..."

Wang Mengmeng took a deep breath, and especially upon seeing the words 'A-Rank and below' on it, she couldn't hold back anymore.

"I..."

"I..."

Chen Yu gripped her wrist: "You definitely can."

"Hum!" As the silver radiance enveloped Wang Mengmeng, her Talent finally underwent a second change. The light lasted for about three seconds, longer than the last time.

When she opened her eyes, she immediately checked her Talent:

[Talent Rank: B-Rank]

Talent Name: Timing Correction

Description: The gears of time have never stopped turning, but some can make them re-engage. Using the heart rate of the time-counter as a baseline, correct every misalignment on the timeline.

Effect: Within a 1-meter radius centered on oneself, dispel all time-related abnormal states, and simultaneously remove negative effects related to time Perception caused by external factors (such as visual lag, sluggish reaction, distorted sense of time, etc.).

Wang Mengmeng swallowed. This time, she realized that her Talent seemed to have finally undergone a qualitative change.

"Within a 1-meter radius, dispel all time-related abnormal states!" Wang Mengmeng read it to Chen Yu, her expression excited.

Chen Yu also breathed a sigh of relief. No matter what, at least he saw the shadow of clearing the level.

"See, you really did it."

Wang Mengmeng nodded excitedly.

This wasn't just the excitement of being able to clear the level; it was also the excitement of going from being trash to being not-so-trash.

At least from now on, she was a B-Rank Talent holder on par with Mengyao.

She was no longer the one holding the team back the most... Although it seemed she still was, it wasn't as embarrassing as saying she was D-Rank.

[red luan Number: 2]

[Connection Nature: Domestication Connection / physiological connection / Indebted Infatuation]

[Connection Depth: Lv.27 → Lv.29]

Unknowingly, Wang Mengmeng's red luan level had reached Lv.29, becoming the first in the whole vehicle.

Even Chen Yu had to sigh with emotion...

Sometimes, finding the right method and acting well was more effective than any 'hero saving the damsel'.

Of the 50 release level cards obtained from the Global Slaughterhouse, a full 49 remained. If every one of them was used like this, it would simply be the most powerful partner for the Red Phoenix Tribulation Seat Talent!
