Saving the World in an Apocalypse-Style Text Game-Chapter 755 - 368: Unexpected Reward from the Test, Wet Nurse’s Offspring_2
[You have obtained ’Soul Protecting Bookmark’ *1]
[’Soul Protecting Bookmark’ *1 (item): In endless slaughter, a single life is precious. Holding this item, when you are attacked by an invading Apostle using the ’Bookmark of Annihilation’ and defeated, this bookmark can offset the ’Annihilation’ effect once.]
[When your soul strength limit drops, you can also use this bookmark’s effect, reducing the decrease by 1 point.]
Lin Xun raised an eyebrow.
’Protecting the Soul’ and ’Annihilation’ are opposites, one saves lives and the other kills enemies.
The Soul Protecting Bookmark can offset the soul annihilating effect brought by the Bookmark of Annihilation. Not only that, but the bookmark can also resist the reduction of the soul strength limit.
Although Lin Xun has the secret of the ’Undying Flame’ soul, he cannot stop the soul limit from being reduced.
Because, except for the blessing of Sacred Objects, there is no other way to strengthen the soul strength limit, therefore the value of the ’Soul Protecting Bookmark’ is extremely precious.
[The ’Librarian’ sees you put away the bookmark, reaches into his robe again, and pulls out another bookmark to give you...]
[You have obtained ’Rewind Bookmark’ *1]
"Huh, there’s more?"
Lin Xun was pleasantly surprised, thinking that the reward was over, he didn’t expect that it hadn’t finished yet.
[’Rewind Bookmark’: What people fear most is not death, but regret. Using this item, you can ignore Chapter difficulty restrictions and randomly open the previous difficulty Chapter world in the ’Book of Salvation’.]
[After you return to the previous difficulty Chapter, you will be downgraded by default. You will stay at this difficulty until you promote.]
"This bookmark... seems to be very powerful."
He thought that the ’Soul Protecting Bookmark’ was already very precious, but the ’Rewind Bookmark’ turned out to be even more extraordinary.
Every Apostle knows that promoting Chapter difficulty is like shooting an arrow, there is no turning back.
Many Apostles either underestimated their strengths, got cocky, tried to gamble... recklessly upgraded the difficulty, leading to a vicious cycle of stuck levels.
For various reasons, there are many Apostles stuck in such cycles, and it can even be said that unless Apostles can pass the final difficulty, the last outcome will inevitably get stuck.
The ways to get stuck are two-fold, either actively stuck, or passively stuck.
For those Apostles who are passively stuck, the ’Rewind Bookmark’, which can return to the previous difficulty Chapter, is more valuable than an artifact.
What Lin Xun was thinking about, however, was not those passively stuck Apostles, but those who actively got stuck...
"I’ve heard that there are quite a few council members in the organization who have been stuck at a certain level for a long time because of the irreversible mechanism of promotion. They dare not rashly promote, which is the so-called active stuck."
"If I could make good use of this ’Rewind Bookmark’, the profits I could get might be incalculable..."
Lin Xun temporarily put away the bookmark, thinking he would make a decision after passing this Chapter.
Because, like him, who immediately opens a higher difficulty every time he completes a Chapter, the ’Rewind Bookmark’ might be used on him someday...
[The ’Librarian’ sees you collect three bookmarks, and reaches into his robe again...]
"Are you kidding me, there’s more?"
Lin Xun was shocked.
[He fumbled for a while, didn’t find anything, then smacked his forehead, remembering that the reward wasn’t in his pocket, but on his face.]
[The ’Librarian’ removed his monocle and handed it to you...]
[You have obtained ’The Librarian’s Monocle’!]
Lin Xun thought the Librarian was going to pull out some other big treasure, turned out to be the usual ’Monocle’.
[The ’Librarian’ said, your reward has been given, now it’s up to the two allies in your team...]
[Although he cannot let you return to the battlefield again, he can let you sense the situation within the test.]
[Saying so, the ’Librarian’ silently recites a spell, and an elliptical light screen emerges out of thin air...]
[In the scene on the light screen, a tall and a small figure are dashing across a desolate land.]
[You look closely, those two figures are ’Jinmu’ and ’Flandre’...]
[’Jinmu’ is rushing forward, and says to ’Flandre’ next to him, the soldiers of the Poison Scorpion Legion say the ’Legion Leader’ has gone to chase the enemy, I don’t know if they can catch up...]
[’Flandre’ purses her lips, her flying speed getting faster and faster, she replies, the summoner is the only hope to save the world, even if both ’Flandre’ and ’Jinmu’ die in battle, they can’t let the summoner have an accident!]
[Jinmu nods, that’s right, the summoner has done him a favor, aside from the big talk about saving the world, it would risk its life to protect the summoner...] 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺
[....]
Through their conversation, Lin Xun learned that the teleportation point for the two of them into the instance is in the main force of the Poison Scorpion Legion behind them.
After Flandre and Jinmu entered the instance, they saw an endless army of their own Mutated beings, but he was nowhere to be found.
After a lot of searching, they were told that the legion leader had led a small elite force to chase the retreating enemy.
After Flandre and Jinmu learned that the number of enemies was as many as hundreds of thousands, they immediately left the main force and rushed in the direction he was chasing.
On their way, he had already passed the test before they reached their destination...
