Chapter 8: Eye of God
Unlike the burly Thunder God that Ren Lian Lingyi had guessed, this Inazuma's Narukami gave people the impression of a gentle and quiet woman, with the aura of a Yamato Nadeshiko.
"This isn't Thor at all." Ren Lian Lingyi couldn't help but blurt out due to nervousness. In his impression, no matter which Thor it was, whether it was from Northern Europe, Greece or even China, Thor always had the image of a strong man.
It was the first time he saw the beautiful Thor, and this Thor's temperament did not match thunder and lightning at all.
"Sorry." After realizing that he had said the wrong thing, Ren Lian Lingyi quickly apologized.
A cold snort came from the void, and Ren Lian Lingyi felt as if he was struck by lightning. He just felt the violent power of thunder and lightning.
"Okay, don't scare the little guy." said the superior Ming Shen.
"You are a visitor from another world." Ming Shen suddenly asked.
Ren Lian Lingyi nodded. He felt that there was nothing to hide. "In my previous life, I was indeed a visitor from another world, but after being reborn by the earth veins, I have cut off all ties with the past."
"I heard that you are very knowledgeable and good at farming and breeding strategies, so let me test you." Ming Shen said.
Although Renlian Lingyi was a little confused , he still started to answer according to Ming Shen's question.
These were all very normal farming problems. Ren Lian Lingyi was not at all inferior. Most of his common sense about Inazuma was acquired from lower-class people like farmers. He also studied agriculture in his previous life. If his theoretical knowledge about planting was listed separately, he might have reached level 4.
"That's a good answer. Renlian Island is still lacking a guardian. And you happened to be born on Renlian Island. So, would you be willing to be the guardian of Renlian Island?" Ming Shen suddenly said.
"Ah this..." Ren Lian Lingyi was a little unsure of what Ming Shen meant.
The Kitsai Palace at the side interrupted: "You scared the little guy by saying that, let me say it."
"There are a large number of youkai guarding various places under the command of Ming Shen."
"Among them, the Guardian Forest is the fief of the little raccoons, the White Fox Field is the fief of my Baichen clan, and the Shadow Mountain behind the Narugami Grand Shrine is the residence of the Tengu and the Oni clan."
"But apart from these places where the earth veins are strong enough to support a large number of monsters, the earth veins in other places are relatively poor, and there are very few monsters that can be bred. Among them, there are even fewer monsters that can fight and rule a region. There are even many places that do not breed monsters."
"Don't worry about the human strongholds. They are protected by the original gods of mankind."
"But there are also many monsters born in the wilderness and deep mountains and jungles."
"The guardians of the monsters are usually responsible for this."
"But you don't have to worry about any danger. There are special people to handle this kind of thing."
"As a monster born from the earth veins, it has a strong sense of the earth veins that gave birth to it. As a guardian monster with little strength, it only needs to give early warnings and prevent places like the one where the earth veins are blocked from appearing ."
"Uh~ Is that so?" Ren Lian Lingyi dispelled some of his doubts.
"Of course it is."
"Then ~ I obey your command and am willing to become the defender of Renlian Island." Renlian Lingyi said.
Then the Thunder God gave him a seal, said some words of encouragement, and told him to complete his training as soon as possible. After completing his training, he could go to guard Renlian Island.
When Ren Lian Lingyi was about to leave, Ming Shen suddenly said, "By the way, take this thing that belongs to you."
"What is this? The God's Eye of Thunder."
"Yes, legend has it that when people's wishes are strong enough, the gods will lower their gaze, and the Eye of God will appear in the hands of those who desire miracles." Ming Shen said.
Ren Lian Lingyi nodded, took the Eye of God and left.
The moment he took over the Eye of God, he sensed the ubiquitous thunder elements in the air, and felt that he could manipulate these elements smoothly.
He also discovered that his vitality had undergone a transformation, his physique had become slightly stronger, his level had been greatly improved, and he had gained two additional special abilities.
Level LV5 → Level LV20
HP 600/600 → 1600/1600
Stamina bar 60→90
Elemental Control: Thunder LV3 (0.0/100) Elemental Control: Rock LV2 (99.9/100)
Ability (Special): Thunder God's Eye (0.0/0.0) cannot be upgraded, elemental vision
Ability (Special): Fate Constellation - Ring Constellation (0 Fate Star) (1 Fate Star will be automatically lit when the character level reaches LV40, LV50, LV60, LV70, LV80, LV90)
I have to say that the Eye of God, an external elemental organ, is really good. Of course, it would be even better if there weren't so many hidden dangers.
After obtaining the Eye of God, Ren Lian Lingyi unexpectedly discovered that his aptitude had improved a lot.
In the past, it took about three days of practice to increase the proficiency of level 1 swordsmanship by +0.1, but now it only takes less than two days.
The same is true for spearmanship.
The talent in archery has also increased a lot, or it can be said that the talent in archery has increased the most.
In just a few months, both the theory and practice of archery exceeded LV550.
Time passed in the blink of an eye, and three years went by in a flash. Ren Lian Lingyi's swordsmanship and spearmanship finally reached level 3. Several sword and spear masters claimed that they had never seen such a stupid monster, which was even more stupid than most humans.
Even humans can use a knife in actual combat after training for a year or two.
Different from swordsmanship and spearmanship is archery. Not long ago, Ren Lian Lingyi's archery officially reached LV7, making him a master of archery.
No one in Narukami Taisha is better at archery than him, and his archery skills can even be said to be among the best in the entire Inazuma.
Archery Theory LV7 (12.1/100) Research directions: precision, rapid shooting, armor penetration, long-range shooting, magic breaking, enchantment, elemental arrows, gigantic, beyond visual range, tracking, sure hit, explosion, and mark.
Blade Archery LV7 (0.1/100) Archery features: precision, rapid fire, armor penetration, long shot, magic penetration, enchantment, elemental arrows, gigantism, beyond visual range.
His improvement in archery even allowed him to reach Level 3 (99.9/100) in mathematics.
According to the naming rules, after being promoted to a master, Blade Link Lingyi's I-ryu Archery finally became Blade Link Archery.
However, the rate of increase in his archery proficiency had obviously slowed down by this point. The most recent increase of 0.1 took him half a month. Moreover, he had a hunch that even with theoretical guidance, his proficiency would increase more and more slowly in the days to come.
As all his tactics, military skills and spells have reached LV3, it means that his training is finally completed. He has graduated from the Miko Training Institute and can go to Renlian Island to guard it.
It is said that his shrine was completed a year ago and is even in semi-operational state now.
However, someone's talent in swordsmanship and spearmanship is so poor that it has been delayed until today.
