Chapter 1415 Jiang Er’s Breakthrough
Island.
The layers of waves rolled onto the golden sandy beach, like fine silver washing over Lin Qiye’s ankles.
He rolled up his pant legs, sat on the beach, and gazed at the sea surface reddened by the sinking sunset on the horizon, lost in thought.
“Qiye, dinner’s ready.”
An Qingyu’s voice came from behind. He was also barefoot, holding several golden-brown aromatic grilled fish as he slowly walked over from the bonfire.
“Thank you,” Lin Qiye took the grilled fish with a slight smile.
“Pangpang, this is yours.”
“…”
“Pangpang?”
An Qingyu’s voice brought Baili Pangpang, who was lying on the beach staring blankly at the sky, back to his senses. He took the grilled fish and said, “Thanks.”
“Why have you been so distracted all afternoon?” Cao Yuan asked curiously. “What are you thinking about?”
“…Nothing, nothing at all.”
Baili Pangpang avoided Cao Yuan’s gaze and silently lowered his head to eat the fish.
Lin Qiye took a bite of the grilled fish, and the crispy texture immediately filled his mouth with the rich flavor. The unhurried sea breeze brushed past his hair, bringing a touch of coolness.
He looked at the horizon and sighed deeply, “No matter how much time passes, this island remains so peaceful… I wonder what’s happening outside now.”
“It should be no different from when we arrived, right?” Cao Yuan pondered.
“But I just feel uneasy somehow…”
“By the way, didn’t you say you were going to find Brother Qiang? How did that go?”
“I did. I told him we wanted to temporarily leave the island to help other special teams with their missions, and then come back to continue training… He refused,” Lin Qiye sighed.
An Qingyu thought for a moment. “Commander Zuo arranged for us to train here. Why don’t we try contacting him directly? Ask him to reassign us?”
“Can’t reach him,” Lin Qiye shook his head. “This island has no signal. All our communication devices are just decorations here.”
“…”
Everyone sighed helplessly, feeling an indescribable sense of frustration and desolation.
Baili Pangpang, who had been silent, opened his mouth tentatively: “Maybe… staying here is actually a good thing?”
Everyone turned to look at him as he continued, “Look, this island carries the national fortune of Great Xia. Even if we do nothing here, our levels will improve rapidly. We’ve only been here for half a month, and now even little sister Jiang Er is about to break through to the ‘Klein’ level…
Why not stay here a bit longer? When we all reach the human ceiling level, we can leave together. By then, we’ll be the first special team in history with all members at the ceiling level! How glorious would that be?”
Baili Pangpang’s words made sense. Sacred training grounds like this island were rare, and everyone became somewhat tempted.
Lin Qiye thought for a moment but still shook his head. “The national fortune on this island can indeed help us improve our strength, but to all break through to the ceiling level would take at least three or four years even here… We can’t possibly stay on the island for that long, can we?
Moreover, to become a ceiling-level expert, one must break through the ‘heart barrier.’ Just playing around on the island won’t help with that.”
Baili Pangpang seemed to want to say more when suddenly, a powerful wave of spiritual energy emanated from an open space nearby!
Everyone was startled and turned to look.
Cao Yuan raised his eyebrows in pleasant surprise. “Did Jiang Er succeed?”
“Judging by the aura, she did indeed succeed,” Lin Qiye sensed the “Klein” level spiritual energy and smiled slightly.
An Qingyu put down his grilled fish and quickly walked to the black coffin standing alone in the clearing. “Jiang Er?” he called softly.
A moment later, a figure in a white dress floated gracefully out of the black coffin.
“I… seem to have broken through.”
Jiang Er’s cheerful voice came through the Bluetooth speaker.
In mid-air, Jiang Er’s figure appeared more solid than before. Her feet, which had been somewhat transparent, were now clearly visible. She gently tucked her black hair behind her ear, her dark eyes full of joy.
As the youngest and most “ordinary” member of the [Nightfall] team in terms of talent, Jiang Er’s level had been hovering at the “Infinite” boundary. Only after coming to this island and experiencing the national fortune did her spiritual energy advance to the next level, breaking through to the “Klein” boundary.
“How does it feel to break through to ‘Klein’? Any changes in your body?” An Qingyu asked curiously.
Jiang Er’s physical body had already died; her existence was the [Spirit Communication Field] forbidden domain itself. According to An Qingyu’s prediction, after Jiang Er’s breakthrough to “Klein,” her spiritual energy would increase significantly, causing changes to this specially existing [Spirit Communication Field].
Jiang Er carefully sensed for a moment. “My body feels more stable, and… it seems my magnetic field can now affect the real world.”
Jiang Er experimentally waved her hand, and the Mercedes G-Class parked in the clearing suddenly started automatically. With a deep rumble, it turned on, and two bright headlights illuminated the surrounding sea area.
Previously, Jiang Er could only control electronic signals through her magnetic field, but as her field grew stronger, she could now control some objects in the real world through it. Her mastery over virtual signals had also reached another level.
Seeing this, everyone’s eyes lit up.
“By the way, Jiang Er,” Lin Qiye seemed to think of something and placed his phone on the coffin lid. “Can you reconnect this phone to a signal?”
Jiang Er tilted her head thoughtfully. “The national fortune on this island acts like a special force field, repelling all electronic signals dozens of kilometers away… but I can try to see if I can penetrate this field with my own magnetic field.”
Jiang Er’s ethereal hand rested on the phone’s surface. As she slowly closed her eyes, her floating body began to flicker and disturb, and signal bars gradually appeared on the phone screen.
“It works!” Lin Qiye’s eyes brightened. “Call Zuo Qing.”
As soon as he spoke, Lin Qiye’s phone automatically opened the dialing page, but after continuous ringing, there was no answer.
“Do you think he guessed what we’re trying to do and is deliberately not answering?” Cao Yuan sighed.
Jiang Er blinked. “Actually, I can directly access his microphone permissions and connect the call even if he doesn’t answer…”
“…” Lin Qiye hesitated for a moment, but under everyone’s hopeful gaze, he nodded. “Connect it then.”
With a swipe of Jiang Er’s fingertip, the dialing screen automatically switched to connected.
Immediately, a piercing roar mixed with countless beast howls came through the speaker!
“…It’s Vishnu!! Damn it! How did they…buzz buzz…Wang Mian! Wang Mian!! Go get…bring them back!…buzz buzz buzz buzz…BOOM!!”
