Reincarnation Paradise: The Void Debt Collector

All melee professions automatically came to the periphery. They looked around vigilantly, ready to deal with any emergencies at any time to ensure the safety of ranged and auxiliary professions.

They tightly protected the ranged and auxiliary professions in the center of the team, forming a solid defense circle.

The ranged professions also formed a circle tacitly. They stood on the inner side of the melee professions and closely protected the remaining five auxiliary professions in the center of the team.

These five auxiliary professions have become the core of the entire team, and their presence is crucial to the team's continued combat effectiveness and survivability.

That’s right, among hundreds of contractors, there are only five auxiliary professions in total.

Two of them are the newly recruited nurses of the Barbarian Bull Adventure Group in the world of Naruto.

This situation is enough to prove the adventure group in Samsara Paradise's desire for and scarcity of auxiliary professions.

"The chain of life."

As Lin Yi activated his skill, a light yellow thread connected everyone closely.

Immediately afterwards, Lin Yi added a layer of holy light defense shield for the melee team members on the periphery, and sticky Yin Wu Lei gradually emerged on the ground.

[Hint: You have been linked by the 'Life Chain', recovering 26 health points per second, lasting for 10 minutes.]

Looking at the pale yellow light shield in front of them, all melee contractors, including the Bull, had the same thought in their hearts: Can we still play this time? We must beat the shit out of the monster.

Afterwards, a common thought arose in the minds of the group of people, that is, anyone could get into trouble, but Lin Yi must not get into trouble.

With this big guy here, why should we be afraid of not completing the mission this time?

"As expected of a big boss, you have such strong support capabilities."

A contractor named Yinghuo looked at Lin Yi with admiration after hearing the battle broadcast.

She is a first-level nanny who was just recruited by Manniu. She is still ignorant and does not have the slightest demeanor of a nanny in the Reincarnation Paradise.

"Okay, stop looking at him. The reason why the boss is the boss is because he is awesome. I don't know how much mana the boss has. He has released so many skills without changing his expression. It's really scary."

At the center of the team, a perception-type support character named Jiuyu was blowing bubble gum out of boredom.

Although her abilities are powerful, they seem useless under Lin Yi's aura.

Jiuyu's maximum perception range can only reach 800 meters, while Lin Yi's halo range is as long as one thousand meters, which is farther than her maximum perception range.

This makes the Nine Fishes almost useless.

"Collect the spoils, others be on guard."

At Manniu's command, several assassins quickly broke away from the team and ran in the direction of the previous attack.

Soon, several people returned to the adventure group and sent the items they had picked up to the temporary channel.

"We'll divide these things up after we get back. We'll see who's still alive by then."

After Manniu said this, all the contractors did not object.

You have to know that the main mission requires everyone to eliminate the alien queen. You can tell with your butt that this is definitely not an easy task. In the end, it is already good enough if half of the more than one hundred contractors can come back alive.

At the same time, near other borders of the Rain Country, teams of contractors from the Samsara Paradise also crossed the borders one after another.

Unlike Lin Yi's team, they did not have the Ultimate Halo's all-round 360-degree detection capability, so they were all attacked by aliens to varying degrees.

These aliens have extremely strong hiding abilities, and even most sensory contractors find it difficult to detect their tracks.

Usually, only within the high perception range of one hundred meters can a contractor with the perception system detect abnormalities, but at this distance it is often too late to react.

For a while, the damage to the major teams was not serious, but the morale of the teams suffered a serious blow.

In comparison, Lin Yi's team advanced the fastest.

"Jiuyu, do you want to play cat's tangle?"

Lin Yi looked at the melee fighters and mages around him who were on high alert and couldn't help but yawn.

Jiuyu is the perception-type contractor whose job was "stolen" by Lin Yi before.

Due to Lin Yi's outstanding performance, the other four auxiliary staff seemed to have nothing to do, and the two newly joined nurses were exchanging experiences with another second-level healer.

As for Lin Yi, he was subconsciously ignored by the two.

This is no wonder. The strength displayed by Lin Yi was too strong, and the aura of a big boss was too strong, so the two newcomers did not dare to get close to him.

"How do you know I'm the third place winner of the catapult competition in our neighborhood? You found the right person this time!"

Jiuyu was so bored at the moment that he started counting the ants on the ground. After hearing Lin Yi's invitation, his eyes suddenly lit up and he quickly threw away the branch in his hand.

"Neighborhood catwalk competition? You're the third place winner?"

"That's right, the champion is an 8-year-old girl, who flipped the ball really fast. The runner-up is a 30-year-old otaku next door, who has extremely fast hands. I can't beat him at all."

Jiuyu came up to Lin Yi with great interest, took out a piece of wool, and the two of them started playing cat's tangle with great interest.

Several new contractors who had joined the Barbarian Bull Adventure Group were immediately furious when they saw Lin Yi being so distracted.

Feng Shi, a new warrior with a bad temper, was ready to step forward and interrupt Lin Yi's slacking behavior to express his dissatisfaction.

The bull on the side reacted faster. He slapped Fengshi on the back of the head and forcibly stopped his action.

"What are you going to do?" Manniu glared at Fengshi with a hint of displeasure in his tone.

"Captain, I just feel aggrieved." Feng Shi rubbed the back of his head, an indignant expression on his face, "We are fighting hard here, it's so tense, but they are still thinking about playing tricks in there."

Feng Shi, who was slapped by Manniu, had a look of aggrieved expression on his face, and it was obvious that he was still very unconvinced towards Lin Yi.

"Not convinced? Why are you not convinced? Don't you think about why we can stand here so safely now? If it weren't for the help of others' halo, do you think you can still live until now?"

Seeing Fengshi's frustrated but refutable look, Manniu suddenly realized that the first-level contractors may not have yet been connected to the derivative world communication platform, so they did not know the situation of other teams.

So, he continued, "Look carefully at the communication channel and take a good look at how many people from other teams died besides ours?"

In order to let the team members understand the situation more intuitively, Manniu decided to take action.

He ordered: "Now everyone shut up and read the message I posted in the team channel carefully."

After saying that, he forwarded all the messages in the Derivative World Contact Channel to the team channel of the Barbarian Bull Adventure Group.

Xuemi (Sanren): "The Land of Earth has encountered an ambush by a large alien force and is now encircling and suppressing them. It is estimated that it will take another three hours to reach the capital of the Land of Rain."

Hedgehog (Fentian Adventure Team): "Like the Kingdom of Wind, these aliens have extremely strong stealth capabilities. The team is attacked every few minutes. Now 8 first-level contractors have died."

Poet (Kanchuan Adventure Group): "The Fire Nation is lucky. We will soon advance to the capital of the Rain Nation."

Hedgehog (Fentian Adventure Team): "What's going on? Why are you progressing so fast?"

Shi Huai (Hanchuan Adventure Group): "Hehe, I met a big guy, so I don't have to worry about anything happening."

Shi Huai (Hanchuan Adventure Group): "[The following battle report requires 100 Paradise Coins to view]."

System prompt: 'Hedgehog has paid 100 Paradise Coins.'

System prompt: 'Mr. Ren Bing has paid 100 Paradise Coins.'

System prompt: 'Mo Wei has paid 100 Paradise Coins.'

Mo Wei (Sanren): "Damn it, why are you so lucky to meet such a big guy."

Hedgehog (Fentian Adventure Team): "That's right, what a lucky bastard, there's actually a top-notch nanny among the casual players."

Shi Huai (Hanchuan Adventure Group): "Lululu, are you angry? Are you angry?"

The new contractors of the Manniu Adventure Group looked intently at the chat records that Manniu posted in the team channel. As they read more, they gradually realized that the difficulty of this journey was far beyond their initial expectations.

The reason why they can be so relaxed now is because Lin Yi is backing them up.

Lin Yi's presence made them no longer worry about ambushes they might encounter on the road, nor did they have to worry about not being able to receive timely treatment after being injured in battle.

"Do you understand? If you do, get out there and defend yourself. If your defenses are breached, I'll skin you alive when I get back."

"Yes, Captain." Feng Shi was startled and responded immediately.

[Successfully treated the contractor Black Sand, talent 'Redeemer activated', permanently increased 27 health points, 9 Abyssal Power. Now reached the upper limit of this world, a total of 1667 health points, Abyssal Power 1635 points. ]

[The health of the treated target has been restored to the upper limit, and the soul strength has been increased by 1. It has now reached the upper limit of this world. The current soul strength is 38 points. ]

[Hint: The collection progress of the origin of life of the black and white rose has reached 100%, and the collection progress of the origin of death has reached 37%. ]

Lin Yi, who was playing cat's tuck with Jiuyu, was suddenly alerted by the sound of the Samsara Paradise.

This series of prompt sounds distracted Lin Yi, resulting in him exceeding the time limit in the catapult competition, allowing Jiuyu to win the game.

"What's wrong? Is there any problem?"

Seeing Lin Yi in deep thought, Jiuyu threw the wool in his hand into his personal space, ready to deal with any possible situation at any time.

"No, I'm just thinking about something." Lin Yi asked thoughtfully, "Do you understand the effect of soul strength?"

According to the hints in the Samsara Paradise, in this world, Lin Yi gained 5 points of soul strength due to his awakening talent, and another 30 points due to the soul fluid. So, after all the calculations, Lin Yi discovered that his original soul strength was only 3 points?

"Soul strength?" Jiuyu immediately perked up, obviously having studied this topic quite a bit. "You've asked the right person this question."

She explained: "In fact, our perception department is actually a branch of the soul department."

As she spoke, Jiuyu took out a dagger. It seemed to have life. It swayed away from Jiuyu's hand, hovered in the air for several seconds, and then fell back into her hand.

"Not bad, this time I lasted 5.3 seconds, which is 0.2 seconds better than before." Jiuyu nodded with satisfaction.

For her, this method is also a way to exercise soul power, but the soul strength must reach a certain limit to achieve this. Otherwise, let alone controlling the dagger, the dagger will not even shake.

Chapter 298 Parasite (Subscription, monthly ticket)

"Perception, to put it simply, is the use of soul power to scan the aura of living creatures within a specific range. Although living creatures can hide their bodies, they cannot conceal their souls. This is the basic principle of perception detection." Jiuyu explained in detail.

"As for the soul strength you mentioned, it is the key to improving the abilities of every person in the perception system. For a contractor of the perception system, soul strength is as important as the basic attribute points of other contractors. All our abilities are enhanced by improving soul strength."

"I see. Then, under normal circumstances, what is the soul strength of a second-level contractor?" After hearing Jiuyu's explanation, Lin Yi finally understood the role of soul strength.

"Second-level contractor? About 1.5 to 2 points. Because contractors who can reach the second level will use a lot of soul crystals when they are at the first level, so the soul strength will also increase a lot with the nourishment of soul crystals."

"But the soul strength of our soul system is different from that of ordinary contractors like you. My current soul strength has reached 8 points, which is considered to be a leader among the second-level contractors."

When talking about his soul strength reaching 8 points, Jiuyu showed a hint of pride on his face, as if to Lin Yi, praise me! Praise me!

Lin Yi asked thoughtfully, "8 o'clock? Isn't it already in double digits?"

Jiuyu almost choked when he heard this.

"Eight points is already very rare!" Jiuyu said unhappily, "Soul strength cannot be directly improved by attribute points. We have to train ourselves through various methods. Those who can reach double digits are basically third-level contractors. Those who can reach double digits at the second level are simply monsters!"

Jiuyu rolled his eyes and felt speechless at Lin Yi's question.

She couldn't help but complain a few words, thinking that Lin Yi seemed to lack sufficient understanding of the difficulty of improving soul strength.

Hearing this, Lin Yi thought about it carefully. He thought about how many Soul Crystals Lin Yi used when he was at the first level. Not to mention the Soul Crystals (small), even the Soul Crystals (medium) were used in piles to upgrade.

As a result, Lin Yi's soul strength is only 3 points, which is enough to prove how difficult it is to improve this thing.

"Everyone be quiet, we've arrived."

Just when Lin Yi and Jiuyu had almost finished their conversation, a cold voice suddenly rang in everyone's ears.

The group looked down the hillside and found a large number of buildings in front of them.

These buildings are completely different from the style of the Fire Kingdom. The buildings of the Rain Kingdom exude a strong local flavor.

The houses here all have pointed roofs, because it rains all year round in the Rain Country, and flat-roof designs are obviously unable to adapt to such climatic conditions.

The pointed roof design not only allows rainwater to slide down quickly and avoid water accumulation, but also gives the building a unique aesthetic feature.

The houses and streets are closely connected through various passages, forming a maze-like network.

Some of these passages are enclosed, while others are like open corridors, but they are all thoughtfully equipped with handrails.

The design of both buildings and passages incorporates considerations of rain protection, drainage and ventilation, aiming to provide residents with a livable environment in a changing climate.

But unfortunately, after the alien invasion, the appearance of the cities in the Rain Kingdom has changed drastically, and the original unique architectural style has now been destroyed beyond recognition.

In the city, the originally neatly arranged pointed-roof houses are now covered with alien body fluids.

The sticky liquid slowly flowed on the wall, constantly corroding the surface of the building, making the originally brightly colored walls look mottled and old.

The spires of some buildings have collapsed due to severe erosion by the alien's body fluids. Among the rubble, one can occasionally glimpse the alien's huge body or the remains of an alien that has broken out of its shell after being parasitized by the alien.
