Chapter 27: Support Trial

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“Then Where can I find someone to help me?”

“When you reach level 10, the forum will release the Support Module, and you can find someone to help you there.” Lin Shurou looked at Ling Yi in surprise after she replied.

“You never thought of becoming a player did you?” She said in surprise. “That’s why you don’t pay attention to these things.”

“Hehe.” Ling Yi touched the back of his head and turned his head away awkwardly.

“If you don’t even know where to find someone to help you, then you definitely don’t know anything else.” Lin Shurou let out a soft sigh. Her watery blue eyes revealed a hint of gentleness as she explained all the information about the emergency aid function to Ling Yi in detail.

“Each person can only support one person at a time... You need to obtain a Support Skill which you can get from completing the Support Trial...”

...

Lun Shurou taught him all he needed to know for a few more minutes. When she exhausted herself of her knowledge about the support system, Ling Yi bade her good night and returned to his bedroom.

He intended to sign up for the Support Trial.

According to Lin Shurou’s “lesson”, when a player reaches level 10, 30, 50, 70, and 90, they would be qualified to participate in a Rescue Trial.

After clearing the trial, they would receive a Support Skill. What made it better was the fact that these skills do not have a star rank and would not occupy his Star Slot.

“I only have one chance now. I must use it well.”

Ling Yi sat on the chair in front of the desk and hesitated. He thought for a moment and decided to go to the forum to take a look first.

He found that there was an additional ‘help’ section on his forum interface.

Ling Yi contemplated for a little while longer, but ultimately couldn’t hold back his curiosity and click it.

The Support Panel’s interface was similar to any other forums, and the main difference was that they only posted related posts which consisted of a list of players who were currently looking for help.

[Seeking a level 50 or so support who can provide me with at least 50 points of strength] (Written by: MuBingyang)

[Need a level 75 player, no attribute requirement, but require a player who can wield an A-grade ‘Earth Shield’] (Written by: Moni_black)

[Does anyone have a support skill that could summon the wind and rain? My hometown is suffering from a drought, I want to go back and contribute to my hometown!] (Written by: ChenTiangong)

[I have 65 agility points and a B-grade [Earth Shield]. Who wants to help me?] (Written by: Bright_Moon)

[...]

Some people needed attributes, while others needed skills.

The forum looked very lively and the players seemed very supportive of one another.

Ling Yi didn’t look at it for long. He still had important things to do.

He entered ‘melee support skill’ in the search box of the forum and clicked the search button behind the input box.

The next second, all the posts regarding melee support skills were listed at the bottom.

These posts were ranked by popularity by default, and the more discussed they were, the higher their ranking would be.

The first post was the “inventory type” post that Ling Yi wanted to see the most.

[List the top ten most powerful melee support skills!] (Written by: XiaoNan_LovesToEatCotton)

23.28 billion views!

5.36 billion likes!

“With such popularity, this post should have quality references.”

Ling Yi was excited as he clicked it.

He skipped the meaningless introduction paragraphs and went straight to the main topic.

[...

[#10 Bull Charge]

Although the effect of using the enhanced body to ram into the enemy sounds simple, those who have used this skill can confirm that it is an effective move.

It is a simple and practical skill.

[#9 Great Strength Fist]

When the player uses his fist to attack, this skill will greatly increase the player’s strength.

It is a simpler skill than [Bull Charge] and often exceeds one’s expectations.

...

[#2 Agile Posture]

Sprint in the designated direction to enhance the next attack.

It’s a perfect skill to use when entering and escaping a battlefield. It has more than one use

[#1 Elemental Spirit Blade]

Can create an energy weapon with elements and attach them to the weapon to increase the weapon’s power.

The Support Skill that countless sword and saber wielders yearned for the most. This skill can unleash great power, regardless of the player’s level.

...]

“Elemental Spirit Blade?” Ling Yi read out loud and reread the description. He was a little confused.

‘Is it very powerful to create an energy weapon? Is there another reason why this skill is ranked number one?‘

However, as he scrolled down to the comments sections, many players seemed to agree.

“Among the melee support skills, Elemental Spirit Blade is indeed a godly skill.”

“If you can’t make up your mind, Elemental Spirit Blade.”

“It’s true. I used to think that this skill wasn’t good until I met someone who had this skill. F*ck, that thing can kill!”

“Yeah, especially those with Lightning Attribute. One hit can split your skin open.”

“It’s already amazing that the user can conjure a weapon out of thin air. You should know that good weapon are hard to come by...”

Looking at these comments, Ling Yi nodded his head lightly.

‘Then I’ll get it as my first Support Skill.‘

Even though support skills were used on the support teammate, the owner of the skill could still use it too.

Ling Yi quickly closed the forum and said to the air in front of him, “I want to start the Support Trial.”

The next moment, a hologram screen appeared with rows and rows of Support Trial scenes. The different scenes would determine what skills the player could get at the end of the trial.

Ling Yi reached out his hand and kept on swiping to the right for quite some time. He finally found the trial scene where elemental spirit blades could be dropped.

[Scorching Sandstorm]

[Trial requirements: kill as many monsters as possible within 10 minutes.]

[Possible dropped Support Skills: Lava Eruption, Breeze Puff, Earth Tremor, Fertile Land, Elemental Spirit Blade]

After clearing the minigame, the players would get their support skills randomly.

All five skills had their own drop rate.

“Sh*t... I hope I won’t get any of the other skills,” Ling worried. If the drop rate of other skills was equal or even less than Elemental Spirit Blade, he would be screwed. So, before he began the trial, Ling Yi nervously looked at the scene’s detail.

[Lava Eruption: 50%]

[Breeze Puff: 30%]

[Earth Tremor: 15%]

[Fertile Land: 4%]

[Elemental Spirit Blade: 1%]

“Only one percent? Thank god.” As long as the skill had a lower chance for other people to get it, then Ling Yi would be fine.

Bad news for other players was good news for him.

He didn’t hesitate any more and directly clicked into [Scorching Sandstorm].

...

10 minutes later…

[Congratulations! You have successfully cleared the trial scenario [Scorching Sandstorm]]

[You have killed a total of 303 monsters in this trial and obtained an S-grade score!]

[Congratulations! You’ve obtained a support skill: Elemental Spirit Blade (S)]

The moment he returned from the trial space, Ling Yi couldn’t wait to take a deep breath and to spat out some of the sand and dearth that got caught in his mouth.

“The trial ground was too harsh!”

During the trial, he was immediately buffeted by the sandstorm. All sorts of things were flying around him and he was covered in sand and dirt.

It was truly terrifying.

He couldn’t stand properly, nor could he see clearly.

Under such circumstances, it would be difficult for other players of the same level to even kill one monster.

Fortunately, he had a long-range skill [Starfall]. It didn’t matter if there were monsters or not, all he had to do was release his skill around him.

After 10 minutes, he had killed more than 300 monsters.

The trial of assistance’s difficulty was determined by the player’s level. The higher the player’s level, the more difficult it would be.

While his level was still low, it would be best to clear the game as soon as possible.

Ling Yi lowered his head and looked at his clothes. Seeing that they were still as clean as before, he nodded slightly and wondered, ‘Will it automatically cleans itself as soon as it comes back? Or does it maintain the state I was in when I entered?‘

When he just finished the trial, his clothes and hair were still covered in sand. But now that he was back in his room, he was as clean as before he left.
