#140 - Chapter 140 Balance Level 3
Thinking about what was about to happen, Shen Xingyan's energy, slightly fatigued after more than ten hours of training, was immediately invigorated, and he felt his body brimming with vitality again!
He went to the kitchen to replenish the energy his body needed, in preparation for the consumption of the upcoming comprehension time.
At the same time, he adjusted himself while waiting for the cooldown time of the comprehension skill to arrive.
Meanwhile, Shen Xingyan, who hadn't been out much in the past few days, was unaware that the situation at the border was becoming increasingly tense.
In the northern district, near the border, due to the extremely rich resources outside the boundary, many skilled professionals would team up to explore, and kill disasters to earn combat merits and money.
The base naturally encouraged this behavior, which led to a large number of combat professionals entering and leaving.
However, in recent days, the number had noticeably decreased, and those who remained returned looking somewhat disheveled, with a clear increase in professional casualties.
"Sir, those damned fellows have been ambushing us endlessly lately! Our people's energy can't compare to these beasts. Now, many soldiers are making mistakes in combat due to insufficient energy, and our losses are getting bigger and bigger!"
On the city wall at the border, a sergeant in well-equipped armor couldn't help but complain to the officer in a robe beside him.
"I understand the situation. Don't worry, I've already reported it to the higher-ups. In the next few days, those experts from the central district will come here to help us fight the enemy.
Hold on a little longer. Once this wave passes, I'll recommend you for merit."
Although the robed officer's face was also somewhat worried, he still gave off a very steady feeling.
And what he said made the sergeant feel much more at ease.
"Experts from the central district? Why would experts from the central district come to our side?" The sergeant couldn't help but ask in surprise.
You should know that those who can be called experts in the central district are truly worthy of the title 'expert'.
After all, in the central district, where status is determined by strength and combat merits, the competition is not something a small northern district like theirs can compare to.
And those who can be called experts there are undoubtedly powerful!
Thinking that he would be able to see such people in the next few days, the sergeant couldn't help but show a look of yearning on his face.
After hearing the question from his subordinate, the robed officer chuckled and slowly said:
"This is thanks to the school's trial that's being held recently! Every year, the central district's school trials are conducted in the other four districts for selection.
And this year, the trial location for those geniuses from the central district happens to be our northern district.
Although it's called a trial, we all know that its purpose is only to let these children gain some experience in advance. Safety is the top priority no matter what.
But unfortunately, we just happen to be experiencing this wave of abnormal monster activity.
As soon as this situation was reported, those people in the central district couldn't sit still, fearing that something might happen to their children here.
So they are very enthusiastic about coming to help stabilize the situation and adjust the trial environment here in advance.
After all, everyone cherishes their own children. We can also benefit from this and safely get through this wave of battle!"
As the robed officer spoke, he couldn't help but feel a sense of relief in his tone. After all, if they were to rely solely on the strength of their northern district to quell this disaster, although they could barely manage, the cost would be too great.
He was more aware of the recent border situation in the northern district than anyone else.
He hadn't seen this level of disaster activity for many years! This also led to a faint sense of foreboding in his heart. But with the specific situation unclear, he couldn't rely on his premonition to report it.
Moreover, even if he reported it, the result might not be effectively addressed.
After all, after more than a hundred years of war history, those exhausted experts would not easily take action unless absolutely necessary.
Fortunately, this time there was a school trial arrangement, which allowed some people from the central district to come and assist, which made him feel much more at ease.
After hearing this reason, the sergeant also showed a look of sudden realization.
At the same time, he became even more determined to quickly accumulate combat merits and send his own children to the central district.
And Shen Xingyan, who was in the underground training room, naturally didn't know about this situation. At this time, seeing that the cooldown of the comprehension skill had been completed, he activated it without hesitation.
As the comprehension time began, the transparent little man in his mind also appeared at the same time.
It's just that the little man's actions were making Shen Xingyan even more confused. It seemed that the little man had deduced the 'Power of Equilibrium' to another level, a level that he couldn't understand at present.
But with his current comprehension, he couldn't grasp the charm of it for a while, and could only slowly grind it down with time.
"I still have to quickly extract the original energy, otherwise, this kind of elusive feeling is really uncomfortable and makes people itch!" At this time, Shen Xingyan was extremely eager to extract all the original energy points from the Star Origin World.
However, the reality told him that he could think about it, but he couldn't, because he had no money!
As the comprehension time progressed to the halfway point, Shen Xingyan only felt a comfortable sensation coming from his entire body, almost exactly the same as the feeling when he leveled up in the Star Origin World before.
And he naturally knew the specific reason for this situation: the Power of Equilibrium had leveled up!
But he didn't stop his training, and was still immersed in the comprehension training.
It wasn't until the end of an hour of comprehension time that he slowly stopped his somewhat divine movements.
After letting out a long breath, Shen Xingyan, feeling refreshed, took out the Star Origin Card and checked his attribute panel in the real world:
Power of Equilibrium (Level 3): Passive: Four major fixed attributes +3
Active: Consumes 6 points of original energy, activates the Power of Equilibrium, can temporarily transfer 6 points of attribute values to the specified attribute, duration 2 minutes, cooldown time 10 minutes. Current progress: 9%
Strength: 17 points
Agility: 17 points
Constitution: 18 points
Spirit: 13 points
.......
Except for the original energy, the other attributes in the attribute panel have been improved, and these were all within Shen Xingyan's expectations, but he didn't feel much surprise.
However, what really surprised him was the 9% progress of the 'Power of Equilibrium'.
"According to the calculation of getting 20% progress for one hour of comprehension, plus my previous 89% progress, it's just right to be 9% after the upgrade, then does that mean that the difficulty of upgrading the Level 3 'Power of Equilibrium' is the same as when it was Level 2?"
