Chapter Twenty-Two: Preparations, Mission

  Chapter Twenty-Two

  A beam of energy light screen appeared in front of Lin Chen's eyes, listing the consumption and functions of three training grounds in a deep abyss language.

  "Primary Training Grounds, providing standard training equipment, can be used for physical fitness exercises and adaptation. The effect is general, and the survival time per hour can be exchanged for a two-hour usage right!"

  "Intermediate training ground, on the basis of primary training ground facilities, equipped with professional computer programs, can provide customized training plans for users, correct errors! Excellent training effect! Survival time per hour can be exchanged for half an hour usage rights!"

  "Advanced Training Grounds, on the premise of having intermediate training grounds facilities, provide a special training environment to enhance energy exercise effects! One hour survival time can be exchanged for 10 minutes usage rights!"

  "Note: Time limits are reduced as usual in training mode!"

  Lin Chen made a decision in less than three seconds and said, "Exchange for an 8-hour intermediate training ground usage right!"

  The advanced training ground is of no use to Lin Chen for the time being, although it can accelerate the speed of energy cultivation compared to the intermediate training ground.

  The training effect of the primary training ground is generally mediocre, and it's all about self-exploration. Lin Chen even wonders if he would have any effect at all if he chose the primary training ground?!

  The intermediate training ground has a professional computer program to tailor-made training programs, and also provides training guidance. With this plan, the next time you train, maybe using the primary training ground is enough!

  "Exchange for 8 hours of intermediate training ground usage, deducting 16 hours of time limit, are you sure?"

  "Yes!"

  Lin Chen gritted his teeth and chose to confirm after glancing at the mechanical expression of the guide!

  Before he knew it, Lin Chen's time limit was left with just over five days!

  The scene in front of him changed again, and almost instantly, Lin Chen's body was in a closed training ground of several hundred square meters!

  "Hello contractor, I am trainer 0756. Your next eight hours of training will be fully responsible for me. This is your training plan."

  Another beautiful woman appeared in front of Lin Chen, the pleasant electronic synthesized voice was still not angry, but at least it didn't sound cold anymore!

  Lin Xun walked in the direction pointed by the trainer and picked up the only form on the table to take a look.

  "Come on!"

  Lin Xun took off the upper garment that had been repaired by the Deep Abyss, and at the same time put down two short swords on the wooden table, immediately starting to train according to the plan described in the chart.

  "Press down on your body with your palm, then press down another five centimeters, hold for three seconds, switch!"

  "Squat thirty more, with extra weight!"

  "Wrong! Arch your back up another five degrees and take a deep breath!"

  "Keep up the pace, control your speed, and pay attention to your breathing rhythm!"

  "Adjust your state! Strengthen control, be flexible and adaptable! …… No, you're being too deliberate, haven't reached the maximum extent, naturally!"

  Lindusten's adaptive training is proceeding with tension under the trainer's correction. Lindusten now knows that even with a training plan, without guidance, the effect will not be very good!

  Moreover, this training program will be continuously adjusted according to his training effect to achieve the best training result, which is absolutely impossible for a primary training venue!

  Under the trainer's constant correction, Lin Chen also gradually summarized some insights from it. The frequency of the trainer's voice was also getting lower and lower...

  On the second floor of the Career Change Hall, turn left at the ninth room, and inside the dark golden gate, a voice with magnetism came.

  "Catherine, why did your merit points suddenly decrease by ten?"

  A handsome young man leaned lazily against a bookshelf, his eyes hazy, as if he was half asleep.

  "Just imparting some experience and insights to a little guy."

  The voice of Assassin Mentor Catherine was still icy, the delicate fingertips like jade circling on the cover of a beast skin book, her temperament cold and proud, keeping people at arm's length.

  "What? Are you planning on taking that little guy as your disciple?"

  A handsome young man's eyes flashed with a lazy, yet piercing light, his voice was filled with the weariness of the ages, and possessed a moving magnetism.

  "No, maybe it's just passed down..."

  Catherine raised her head, and her eyes sparkled like the starry sky with a hint of purple. The edges of her pupils gradually turned red, green, black, and blue!

  The handsome young man's eyebrows jumped, and his whole body was like a lazy cat whose tail had been stepped on, with his hair standing on end in an instant. The drowsiness in his eyes had vanished, as if he were facing a great enemy!

  "Please, don't stare at me with those eyes of yours... wait a minute!"

  The handsome young man's voice paused, and he suddenly said: "Could it be that that guy has also awakened this ability? That's right, only then would the proud you dare to violate the rules set by that person!"

  The handsome young man muttered to himself, shaking his head and nodding, then said: "The third generation of Shadow Stab has already been settled, but my Battle Mage still has no successor..."

  "Get out."

  Catherine turned over the page and uttered a deep, toneless syllable.

  "Alright alright, I'll go first..."

  ……

  Eight hours later, Lin Chen came out of the training ground covered in sweat and fatigue. He spent ten minutes of his survival time in a hot bath at a public bathhouse in the west district before returning to his own space, where he fell asleep as soon as he lay down.

  Although time is life, Lin Chen's body and mind need rest, which cannot be deducted. What Lin Chen can do is to maximize the effect of resting time and have a deep sleep!

  Eight hours of special training, although it almost directly exhausted Lin Chen to death, the effect was also very significant. At least Lin Chen had fully adapted to his fifteen-point agility value, just like his normal state. That light and airy feeling had disappeared!

  But to achieve perfect application, it's still far from enough. It requires slow comprehension through countless real battles.

  If... can live smoothly from now on.

  And F-class shortsword mastery was also adapted by Lin Chen during training!

  Can't help but say that Lin Chen really has the talent to become an assassin, after the hidden injuries on both hands were healed by the Deep Abyss, his ten fingers became extremely agile!

  And he, too, seemed to have an extremely high affinity for using short swords. After becoming familiar with the two weapons in his hands, some insights and key points would occasionally flash through his mind, as if inspired by a divine brush!

  However, the use of short swords is just familiar, far from reaching the level of mastery!

  To test ideas and skills in your mind and further improve them, you still need to put them into practice!

  Six hours of deep sleep allowed Lin Chen's body and mind to recover greatly, feeling refreshed and relaxed!

  However, the energy in Lin Chen's body had long been depleted, and the gastric acid secreted by his stomach was constantly corroding the stomach lining, reminding him that it was time to eat!

  In the Western District, Lin Xuan also spent several hours of survival time replenishing supplies, purchasing enough high-calorie compressed food and solid water for ten days' consumption, which was stored in a one-cubic-meter space within the Abyssal Ring, ready to be used at any time.

  Lin Xun took out a cubic particle the size of a fingernail from the storage space in the true vacuum and threw it into his mouth to chew.

  To be honest, these high-calorie compressed foods don't taste good at all, they're almost as bitter as soap!

  However, it also has the advantage of being rich in energy, and three nuts are enough to meet the energy needs of a normal adult!

  As Lin Chen chewed, the food gradually melted in his saliva, releasing energy that made his entire body feel warm and cozy!

  The hunger in his stomach was quickly smoothed out by the warmth in his body, and Lin Chen ate another compressed solid water to adjust his state to its best.

  "Thank you!"

  Lin's pale hand stroked the warm, jade-like Deep Abyss Ring, and with a twisted, mysterious tone in the Deep Abyss Common Language, he spoke out the word, his heart filled with mixed emotions.

  Self-mockery? Sarcasm? Resignation? Expectation? Or excitement?

  Maybe, there is.

  Under Lin Chen's finger rubbing, the Deep Abyss Ring seemed to have undergone a strange chemical reaction. Several pale blue light beams kept sweeping and quickly formed an energy light screen in the air!

  "Single-handed task!"

  "Team Task!"

  "Mission Accomplished!"

  "Composite Mission!"

  "Composite task."

  Lin Xuefei quickly selected a task type with voice command.

  The previous career change, attribute enhancement, and adaptability training are not things that can be rushed or completed overnight.

  (I'm desperately seeking recommendations! Please collect! I'm over 20th on the newcomer's overall list, what a pathetic data, please give me some strength everybody!!!!!)
