Chapter 192: The Lucky Day of Psychic Dancer
After eliminating the Saint of Life and Death, the “Chaos of Equilibrium” mission was completed, and Bai Yan once again acquired five new Awakening Souls.
Now, it was time to make another decision: who should receive the “salary”?
First, he ruled out the lovely student, Mu Ling.
Since “Nightsaber” had already reached the Potential Crown level with an awakening rate of 95%, feeding another Awakening Soul would only bring it to 99%, which wouldn’t make much difference. Unless Mu Ling successfully completed the Crown Ceremony and was fortunate enough to be promoted to Crown, her strength couldn’t be improved for the time being. Thus, she wasn’t considered for this round of options.
In fact, the “Fusion Slime,” also at the Potential Crown level, was in the same position. Without the Crown Ceremony, it couldn’t be improved by Awakening Souls either.
Non-core Operators weren’t considered, and the potential of the Count of Knights had already reached its limit. They couldn’t be developed further through Awakening Souls.
This was the primary difference between Non-core Operators and Core Operators. Even though Bai Yan could provide Non-core Operators with “external things” like Mystical Power and Relics, he couldn’t provide them with Awakening Souls.
So, in the end, only the remaining three Core Operators were left to choose from:
“Psychic Dancer”: awakening level – Middle Position (31% awakened)
“Mysterious Magic”: awakening level – Middle Position (36% awakened)
“Cybertyrant”: awakening level – Middle Position (32% awakened)
There had been a slight change in their awakening levels since last time. In fact, extraordinary individuals could increase their awakening levels through daily exercises and battles. However, due to the current time constraints, it was nearly impossible for them to experience any significant change without the use of Awakening Souls.
Bai Yan was deep in thought. He had originally hesitated about who to promote first, but it seemed that he needed to upgrade “Psychic Dancer” and “Cybertyrant” urgently.
Their combat abilities might not surpass Alan’s, and they would be relatively powerless against future big bosses. However, “Psychic Dancer” and “Cybertyrant” held a specialized and subversive power that would be invaluable for maintaining order in society. Since Bai Yan’s goal was to integrate all the forces in Tatsumi City, he needed their strength.
Among the two, “Psychic Dancer” was the most necessary at this stage. His current goal was to conquer Tatsumi City, not the Ring City.
“Although your abilities may not be useful in BOSS battles, they are extremely effective against small fry… Well, today is the lucky day for ‘Psychic Dancer’.”
Without hesitation, Bai Yan gave “Psychic Dancer” three Awakening Souls, watching her awakening level skyrocket to 61%.
As for the remaining two Awakening Souls, Bai Yan decided it was better to leave them for now. At this stage, no matter who they were given to, there wouldn’t be a qualitative change.
“Upgrade completed.”
Next, Bai Yan clicked on the operator list in his phone and brought up the current operator information for “Psychic Dancer”.

Description: A noble descendant of an ancient elf family, she is born with extremely powerful spiritual talent. The thoughts of ordinary people are naked in front of her, and her uncontrollable power also makes her realize the dirtiness of the real world, and the preciousness of sincerity.
The future queen of the mind, a monster that manipulates all living beings.
As “Psychic Dancer”‘s strength grew, a new ability was added to her character card: Memory Modification.
This was a very powerful supernatural ability. In Bai Yan’s memory, it was one of the most useful abilities in the “Psychic Dancer”’s skill tree.
The prerequisite for Memory Modification was first evolving Memory Reading. Due to different experiences and tasks, the ability evolved from Mind Reading might not always develop into Memory Reading. Evolving Memory Reading this time had been a stroke of luck, and with her growth, Memory Modification came as a side effect.
Memory Modification could only be used on people weaker than her, meaning that the current Psychic Dancer could only use it on those of the Original level. Only upon reaching the Crown level could she use Memory Modification on those at the Awakening level.
The ability to modify memories was quite powerful, but its effects were limited. Initially, she could only modify general memories, and the changes could easily be undone by someone with malicious intent. Furthermore, the modification could only last for a month before wearing off.
There was one major limitation: the souls of those from the Creation Realm Plane were almost impossible to alter.
Despite these limitations, Bai Yan recognized how strong this ability was—especially now that the “game” had fully become “reality.”
Myself and Maryse could use “memory modification” to create situations favorable to Babel Tower.
Meanwhile, in the dark safe house.
Wu…
After another enhancement of her soul essence, Maryse, dressed in light blue pajamas and blue and white underwear, lay trembling on the bed, tiny beads of sweat dotting her delicate skin.
“I have become stronger again…”
The experience had been intense. Her spiritual strength had grown, and she now had the ability to achieve what was previously impossible.
Maryse took a deep breath and lazily laid on the bed, not wanting to move. The experience had drained much of her energy.
“The feeling of becoming stronger is really good… My brothers and sisters tried every means and spent so many resources of the clan, but as a transcendent, it’s very difficult to make progress, even in small stages.”
Normal transcendents usually had to familiarize themselves with their powers through training and fighting or rely on various medicines to improve. However, no one could become stronger like the Core Operators of Babel Tower, who shot up in power like rockets!
Joining Babel Tower was indeed the best thing that ever happened to me… although it was forced…
Maryse pondered silently.
Suddenly, a voice broke her thoughts.
“Congratulations, Maryse.”
Startled, Maryse sat up in fright. But as she turned around, she felt a sense of reassurance.
“Senior Profligate!”
For no apparent reason, she relaxed completely upon seeing the man, not even realizing that, as a ‘weak woman,’ she was being intruded by a ‘big man’ in the night.
Bai Yan stood in the shadows, smiling, his figure barely visible in the darkness.
“You have become more powerful again, Maryse.”
“This is the will of the Savior… You should reclaim what is precious to you… I know, Maryse, you’ve been missing your friend.”
Maryse swallowed her saliva, lowered her head, and slowly began to recall her past with Yiming. She remembered the things she had been forced to give up—the things she could have had with her family. Why was she forced to leave? It wasn’t her fault!
She suddenly remembered something.
Why does Senior ‘Profligate’ know about Irena and me? Did he investigate my past?
Before she could ask, Bai Yan continued calmly.
“It’s coming soon… very soon, you will realize your wish.”
“The Augustus family, who once treated you with indifference and discrimination, will grovel at your feet and tremble endlessly. This is the will of the great Savior, and it will definitely come true.”
Bai Yan almost felt a bit embarrassed by his own words. But he saw nothing but light in Maryse’s eyes! She was moved and completely believed what he said.
