Chapter 49: The Second Perfect Mutation – The Eyes Of Truth!
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Ling Yi subconsciously smiled when he saw the word ‘perfect’. He couldn’t help but feel happy.
This was the second time he had seen the highest Mutation Potential.
Last time, this level of potential had given him the ability to mutate his talent, [Probability Reversal], which was like finding gold in the mine...
This time, he also had great expectations for this skill!
‘Mutate!‘ Since there were too many people here, the only way to speak to the system was through his mind.
[Are you sure you want to mutate the [Eye of Truth (4-star)]? (Requires 100 mutation points)]
‘I’m sure!‘
After anxiously waiting for a few seconds and seeing the skill in his inventory gradually become clear, Ling Yi finally couldn’t wait to open it.
[Eye of Truth (4 stars)]: Allows the user to view the information of monsters, items, and players. It lets the user see invisible units and an item’s hidden information.
Compared to before, it had three new effects.
He would be able to see the player’s information, invisible stats, and hidden information of items.
Initially, the first time Ling Yi saw the effect, he felt slightly underwhelmed by its effects, and the only thing he could think of was that it was a ‘so-so’ skill.
However, when he carefully thought about it, it was already an excellent skill.
At the very least, seeing other people’s information was extremely useful. It was an ability that everyone dreamed of.
He was so excited that he immediately learned the [Eye of Truth].
[Star Slots 4 → Remaining Star Slots 0]
[You have learned the skill the [Eye of Truth]!]
Ling Yi blinked, and his pitch-black eyes seemed to have become even deeper.
He raised his head and looked at the bald old man in front of him. He thought, ‘Eye of truth!’
Ling Yi acted as if nothing had happened.
His eyes were still the same as before.
However...
In his vision, an interface that was not there before appeared.
[Name: Wang Tianhua (Lv60)]
[Gender: Male]
[Age: 55 (Married)]
[Talent: Luck]
[Attributes: strength 140, mana 3, Agility 125, endurance 30, physique 30]
[Skills: Forward Punch (1 Star), Intuition (7 Star) (Passive), Battle Endurance (3 Star), Steel Rock Armor (5 Star)...]
[Support Skill: Space Blade...]
[Equipped Treasure: Wolf’s Fang Necklace (D-grade)]
[Soulbinding Weapon: Berserker (C · Great Axe)]
[Current Status: Healthy]
[Current Mood: Peaceful, Calm]
Looking closely at the semi-transparent virtual interface in his field of vision, Ling Yi realized that the old man’s most important basic information was all there.
Name, gender, level, age, attributes, skills, treasures, weapons, and even health status and emotions were listed.
Although he couldn’t go further into the details of the skills or treasures, it was more than enough.
After all, if he knew the name of the skills, wouldn’t he be able to guess its specific effects?
“Good, good.” Ling Yi was delighted.
After looking at a player, he wanted to try looking at the items. He lowered his head and looked at a random skill crystal displayed.
[Diamond Armor Breaker (5 Star)]: Obtain a layer of diamond armor and reduce a certain amount of damage. Able to detonate armor, causing minor damage to surrounding enemies and pushing them back a distance.
He shifted his gaze to the left and looked at the other skill crystals.
[Repair (4 Star)]: Able to repair damaged items. The duration of the repair depends on the damage.
[Enhanced Vision (4 Stars) (Passive)]: Increases vision by 10x.
...
After looking at a few of them, he finally shifted his gaze to the nameless skills at the side.
If he could even see the information of this nameless skill, then the [Eye of Truth]’s features were far more superior than any other detection skills.
As he focused his gaze on one of the nameless skill crystals, the skill information appeared in his field of vision!
[Butterfly Transformation (2 Star)]: Turn into an ordinary butterfly; Consumes stamina continuously during transformation, can be deactivated at any time; No other skills can be used during the shift.
Seeing this, Ling Yi nodded his head in satisfaction.
‘Okay, it works.‘
The nameless skill did not attract players to buy it.
Over time, people accumulated a lot of them.
There must be some good skills among them, and if he were to encounter them in the future, he would definitely not miss them!
He also looked at the remaining nameless skills in the stall and found that they were all ordinary. Not what he needed.
He turned around and was about to leave when the old man asked, “Nothing catches your interest?”
“Ah, my Star Slots are full.” Ling Yi nodded and smiled at the old man. “But thank you. You’ve been a great help.”
“Hehe, there’s no such thing as helping or not helping. It’s just business.” The bald old man waved his hand and laughed.
As he watched the young man leave, the bald old, Wang Tianhua, suddenly became serious.
‘That young man….‘
“Hey! Old Wang, I saw it all; you gave away your [Eye of Truth].” Another old man at the stall next door called out to him.
“What are you talking about? I clearly sold it!”
“Yeah, for only 1,000 G. What’s the difference between that and giving it away? Last time I offered you 3,000 Gold coins for it, but you said you weren’t selling it... Is that person a distant relative of yours? Why are you so kind?” The old man at the stall next door was puzzled.
“To tell you the truth,” Wang Tianhua sighed. “You know I have a skill called [Intuitive Prediction], right? Thanks to that, my sixth sense is very accurate. When I first saw that young man, I had a feeling that it would be best to help him.” Then he laughed, “Ever since I obtained this skill, I’ve been able to turn calamities into blessings and avoid disasters...”
...
“You’re back?”
“Yes.” In the front yard, Ling Yi nodded as he caught Lin Shurou watering the flowers.
Suddenly, he had the idea of using the [Eye of Truth] to see her situation.
‘But wait…?Isn’t this a little invasive if I used it to look at people’s data?‘
It was only now that it crossed his mind.
‘It would be fine if we were enemies… Well, I better not look at strangers’ or acquaintances’ data so casually in the future.‘
However, the more he stared at Lin Shurou, the more her heart itched with curiosity.
This girl will be by his side every day, and the only thing holding him back is one thought away. Could he really hold himself back?
He walked to Lin Shurou’s side, and when the latter turned to look at him in confusion, he organized his words and said with a strange expression, “I... I’ve just acquired a skill that allows me to check the information of living things. Do you mind if I take a look at yours?”
Lin Shurou blinked her watery blue eyes innocently, then smiled, revealing two rows of white teeth. “If you want to see mine, then go ahead.”
Seeing how honest this young man that it gave her a wave of fondness towards him. In fact, she even lifted her delicate to bring herself closer to him.
“Okay,” he said. Ling Yi smiled, but his eyes focused slightly.
In the next second, her information interface appeared in his field of vision.
