From the Abyss Invasion to the Blasting Star.

Chapter 15 Trust and Cooperation

Now is the first month since the advent of the Abyss, and few teams will invest resources in auxiliary psychics.

Few people are willing to become auxiliary psychics. After all, your life is your own, and putting your life in the hands of others requires absolute trust.

If it was in their previous life, Lu Heng and Su Muyu did have this trust between them. Now that they have only been together for ten days, they have established trust so quickly, which makes it even more precious.

"Do you really want to learn this skill?" Lu Heng wanted to know her true thoughts instead of forcing her to listen to him.

"I'll listen to you. If you tell me to learn, I'll learn." Su Muyu nodded seriously, his tone very affirmative.

Lu Heng was really happy to hear her say that.

In fact, what Lu Heng wanted most was an obedient partner, a partner who would obey unconditionally no matter what orders and arrangements were given.

After all, with the memory of rebirth, there are many things that are difficult to explain.

If your teammates ask you every day: Why is this? Why is that? Why was this skill given to you?
Then Lu Heng would rather be a lone wolf.

In the low-level martial arts world, personal bravery is no match for the might of thousands of troops, naval guns, and nuclear bombs.

It is different in the world of high-level martial arts. No matter how many people there are, they are just a number. Quality of teammates is more important than quantity.

Lu Heng looked at her curiously and asked, "Are you really so obedient?"

"Ah."

Su Muyu nodded and replied as a matter of course: "You said at the beginning that I would listen to you in everything, regardless of the reasons or the results. I promised you that."

Lu Heng suddenly wanted to hug her and kiss her, but he held back for fear of scaring her.

"Well, from now on, I won't ask for your opinion. I will decide what skills you learn and what path you take to advance."

Su Muyu nodded seriously: "Okay, I'll listen to you."

She said to herself silently: Anyway, you saved my life, whether the future is good or bad, it all depends on you.

Lu Heng was very happy when he heard her agree.

Because of her memory of rebirth, Lu Heng knew very well which ability system she should develop into, and the development path he arranged for her was definitely the best solution at the moment.

"Okay, then you learn this skill." Lu Heng made the decision.

Su Muyu held the crystal core in both hands and squeezed it hard. The crystal core turned into a ball of energy, flowing into the body along the arm, and condensed into an energy ball in the second skill slot.

"Okay, the [Invisibility Curtain] skill has appeared on the data panel."

"Let's give it a try." Lu Heng wanted to see the effect.

Su Muyu stood up and released his skills. A thin layer of source energy spread out from his body and covered his body surface. Then his whole body slowly became transparent and finally completely invisible.

She asked aloud, "Can you still see me?"

Lu Heng shook his head: "I can't see it anymore."

Although I couldn't see it, I could still hear the breathing because I was in the same room.

Su Muyu wanted to be naughty, so she walked quietly behind Lu Heng, stretched out her hands to cover Lu Heng's eyes, and said in a low voice: "Guess who I am."

"So childish." Lu Heng couldn't help but roll his eyes.

"Ouch!" Su Muyu suddenly groaned in pain.

"what happened?"

"It pulled the wound."

"I told you to make a fuss."

"I'm in so much pain, and you're still scolding me."

Su Muyu pursed her lips, removed her invisibility, sat back in her chair, and pretended to be very angry.

Lu Heng thought it was very funny, so he stood up and tapped her forehead: "Okay, next I'm going to explain an important technique for using skills, which is skill linkage. This is very important, so listen carefully."

"Okay." Su Muyu nodded seriously.

"You have tested [Invisibility Curtain]. What do you think of this skill? Do you think it has any shortcomings?" Lu Heng asked.

"Well... this skill is very useful. However, I just tested it and found that this skill requires the finger to touch the target in order to make the target invisible, which limits its use." Su Muyu is indeed very smart. After using the skill, he found the shortcomings of the skill.

"That's right. [Invisibility Curtain] is indeed a short-range skill and its use is very limited. However, if it is linked with the [Scout Eagle] skill, it can be used remotely. The method is to convert the energy of the [Scout Eagle] into [Invisibility Curtain] energy. You can practice it when you have time." After Lu Heng explained the principle, he asked her to try it herself.

After discussing the skill linkage techniques, the two went downstairs to find something to eat.

There is food in Quench Fort. Breakfast is an unknown clam soup.

If Lu Heng didn't know that the food provided by Quenching Fort was edible, he would definitely hesitate.

After tasting it, the taste is indeed a bit strange, but in the abyss world, it is good to find edible food.

While eating breakfast, Su Muyu was thinking and asking questions related to the Abyss:

"What should I do now? If more and more demons appear in the real world in the future, it will definitely be dangerous, right?"

"When you use a skill, you should be able to see a prompt indicating your proficiency has increased, right?" Lu Heng asked.

Su Muyu nodded: "I see. If skill proficiency increases, will the power of the skill increase?"

Lu Heng thought for a moment and replied, "It won't increase the power. However, the more proficient you are in using the skills, the smoother the battle will be. Sometimes this sense of smoothness is more important than pure power.

“Also, once you have reached the highest level of proficiency, I can help you evolve your skills.

"So now you need to train to control your scout eagle and improve your proficiency as much as possible. The effect of this skill after upgrading is very strong."

Su Muyu listened carefully and nodded in agreement: "Okay, I'll remember it."

after awhile.

She picked up a piece of vegetable made of an unknown plant and put it in her mouth. While chewing, she thought and continued to ask questions: "The level on my panel is 1. How can I upgrade this?"

Lu Heng replied: "There are many ways to level up. You can level up by exercising your physique or taking a life-related secondary job. In addition, you can level up by hunting demons, and it is the fastest way to level up, but it is very dangerous."

Su Muyu nodded in agreement, then asked curiously: "What level are you now?"

"Level 4."

"3 levels away." Su Muyu grinned, thinking that the gap wasn't too big, and if he worked hard, he shouldn't be too far behind.

after awhile.

Su Muyu suddenly realized a problem and frowned:
"Well... I don't have any attack skills, so I can't beat those monsters. If I can't beat them, then I can't level up. Lu Heng, are you trying to trick me?"

Lu Heng reached out and tapped her forehead: "Yes, I cheated you, so what?"

Su Muyu covered her forehead with her hands and laughed, then she held her chin with both hands and said, "I'm just kidding. I will practice my skills seriously."

After breakfast, Lu Heng went to find Gollum and said he wanted to go out and help him find the Narnia crystal, but he was not familiar with the road, so he got a city map in return.

Lu Heng took the map and went out with Su Muyu, heading towards the location of the Narnia crystal marked on the map.

There are three Narnian crystals circled on the map, all in the valley on the edge of the city.

The two left the Quenching Fort and followed the route on the map until they came to the first Narnia crystal.

The scout eagle found the location of the crystal from a few hundred meters in the sky.

This Narnian crystal was placed on a stone platform similar to an altar, and next to it was a Devilclaw absorbing the energy of the crystal.

"It seems there is only one demon." Su Muyu asked the reconnaissance eagle to circle around to make sure there were no other demons within a thousand meters.

Lu Heng reminded: "Set the scout eagle to invisibility and fly closer for observation."

Su Muyu nodded and used the skill as instructed, making the reconnaissance eagle enter stealth mode and fly within a range of ten meters for reconnaissance. As expected, he found something wrong.

"There are invisible ones, just like the one we encountered yesterday, the invisible horned demon."

She was still frightened when she thought of the invisible horned demon yesterday.

"How many?"

"Two invisible ones, plus the Horrorclaw Horned Demon, a total of three." Su Muyu reported the number.

If it was yesterday, facing the three-headed demon would have been a bit troublesome.

However, the weapon used today is the Aurora Blade, and the sharpness of the weapon has been improved by several levels.

Lu Heng thought for a moment and began to arrange tactics: "Give me the invisibility effect, I will go over and kill the Horror Claw Horned Demon first. When the Horror Claw Horned Demon falls, you immediately make the scout eagle visible and locate the position of the invisible horned demon.

"If an invisible horned demon comes towards you, you should turn yourself invisible and move towards me."

"it is good."

Su Muyu nodded seriously and used [Invisibility Curtain] to give Lu Heng an invisibility effect.

Lu Heng pulled out the Aurora Blade and tiptoed towards the back of the Terrorclaw Horned Demon.
