【Transmission successful!】

[You open your eyes and find yourself in a familiar library, but ‘Flanda’ and ‘Kim’ are nowhere to be seen. 】

[In the entire library, there are only you and the 'librarian'...]

[You quickly come to the door of the library and look around. There are no two figures in the 'Angel's Nest'...]

"what's the situation?"

Can Flanda and Kim be left behind by teleportation? Or maybe Flanda and Kim were not teleported into the instance at all...

[You turn to look at the 'Librarian', and see that he looks slightly embarrassed and says with a sneer on his face, Apostle, congratulations on passing the test...]

[Obviously, as a 'librarian', he certainly has the ability to know the general situation of the test. He already knows that you have experienced an unusually difficult test. 】

[You have no time to pay attention to his embarrassment and quickly ask where the two plot characters have gone?]

[The expression of the 'librarian' became even more embarrassed. He adjusted the monocle on his face. The wrinkles on his old face were squeezed into a ball. He hesitated and said, they are still being tested...]

[I don’t know why, but there were some accidents in the test that he couldn’t control, causing the two plot characters to still stay in the test...]

[They also need to achieve the goal of "victory in small-scale battles" just like you, otherwise they will not be able to escape the test normally. 】

Lin Xun couldn't help but gnashed his teeth. He originally wanted the two demigod bodyguards to take him to win, but he didn't expect that he would lose everything.

This time is great, Frenda and Kim are directly involved.

[The 'librarian' saw you looking unkind and quickly waved his hand to explain that no one wants this kind of accident to happen. ]

[The original test process should not be like this. It was after you were transferred that the test process suddenly changed.]

[According to the rules, everything he did complies with the procedures, and opening the portal is also a qualified way to enter. 】

[And the help of the two plot characters is the advantage you gain in the chapter. 】

[There are no irregularities in any process, and there should not be such accidents. It is really strange to say...]

[The ‘librarian’ seems to be confused as to why the accident happened. 】

Lin Xun couldn't help but frown.

Originally, he thought that the administrator's help was like cheating, which caused the backlash of the underworld game.

After the administrator explained it, he discovered that things were not what he thought at all.

If the content of the test is compared to a war in the ancient West, there is nothing wrong with the down-and-out knight having no followers and having to go to the battlefield alone.

But isn't it normal for a noble knight to take a few retinues with him to the front line?

If this is considered cheating, isn't it a bit outrageous to let the noble knights challenge the enemy's city-defending dragon as a punishment?

Not only that, the noble knight successfully slayed the dragon after overcoming numerous difficulties and dangers, and finally triumphed.

As a result, the subordinates were forced to stay on the battlefield and asked to continue attacking the city.

Is this even more outrageous?

"It doesn't make sense...why is this happening?"

[You quickly ask the ‘librarian’, how are the two plot characters progressing in the test now? When will they come out? Can you enter the test again to help them? 】

[The 'Librarian' shook his head helplessly, indicating that you cannot return to the frontline battlefield, and the two plot characters are not in danger now. You will know later. ]

[He reminded that it is not necessarily a bad thing for you that the two are still being tested.]

"My two top bodyguards are gone, can it be a good thing?"

Lin Xun couldn't help but blurt out.

Then I thought about it, with Frenda and Kim's strength, wouldn't it be easy to crush a bunch of feathered fish on the front line of the battlefield?

Even a being as strong as the Angel Warrior probably wouldn't be able to survive a round at the hands of these two.

It was much easier for the two of them to achieve the conditions for "victory in a small-scale battle" than for him.

Unless...unless you meet another wet nurse's offspring.

"Bah, bah, crow's mouth!"

[The 'Librarian' continues to tell you that although the difficulty of the test has been greatly increased under the influence of unknown factors, correspondingly, the rewards have also been greatly increased. 】

[The rewards you get after you pass the test perfectly will be extremely rich. Not only that, if the two plot characters can also pass the test, the rewards you get will be even higher.]

[‘Librarian’ signals to you to be calm and take a look at the rewards you have received first. 】

[He put his hand into his robe, took out a bookmark and handed it to you...]

[You obtained ‘Holy Artifact Bookmark*1’]

"That's it?"

Lin Xun also obtained a sacred bookmark in the previous chapter.

After using it, he was matched with an apostle of level 3 difficulty. The sacred objects he successfully plundered during the invasion were only poor S-level ones, which were ‘sacred object fragments’ with an increase of 10%.

However, you cannot re-equip holy objects obtained at the same difficulty level. Lin Xun’s Type 3, 4, and 5 holy objects are all ultimate holy objects with a 50% increase in power. There is no need to replace the high-level holy objects to equip a holy object with a span.

things.

Low-level holy objects that cannot be traded have basically no value in his eyes.

Now that the difficulty has been upgraded again, he uses the 'Sacred Relic Bookmark' to match, and it is estimated that he can only get a low-level sacred relic of type 3 or 4.

[The ‘librarian’ put his hand into his robe, took out a bookmark and handed it to you...]

[You have obtained the ‘Soul Protection Bookmark’*1]

['Soul-Protecting Bookmark'*1 (Prop): When the killing is endless, the life you only have once becomes extremely precious. With this prop, when you encounter an invading apostle, use the 'Soul-Destroying Bookmark' on you.

When defeated, this bookmark can offset the 'soul-killing' effect once.】

[When your soul strength limit drops, you can also use the effect of this bookmark to reduce the drop value by 1 point.]

Lin Xun raised his eyebrows.

‘Protect the Soul’ and ‘Destroy the Soul’ correspond to each other, one is to save life and the other is to kill the enemy.

The Soul Protecting Bookmark can offset the soul annihilation effect caused by the Soul Destroying Bookmark. Not only that, the bookmark can also resist the reduction of the upper limit of soul strength.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Although Lin Xun has the secret of the soul of "unquenchable fire", he cannot prevent the soul limit from being reduced.

Since there is no way to supplement the upper limit of soul strength except the blessing of holy objects, the value of the 'Soul Protection Bookmark' is extremely precious.

[The 'librarian' saw you put away the bookmark, put his hand into his robe again, took out another bookmark and handed it to you...]

[You have obtained ‘Lookback Bookmark’*1]

"Well, why is there more?"

Lin Xun was a little surprised. He thought that the rewards would be over, but he didn't expect that the rewards had not been distributed yet.

[‘Retrospective Bookmark’: What people fear most is not death, but regret. Using this prop, you can ignore the chapter difficulty limit and randomly open the chapter world of the previous difficulty at the ‘Book of Salvation’. 】

[When you return to the previous difficulty chapter, the difficulty will be downgraded by default, and you will remain at this difficulty until you upgrade the difficulty.]

"This bookmark... seems very powerful."

I thought that the 'Soul-Guarding Bookmark' was already very precious, but I didn't expect that the 'Retrospective Bookmark' would be even more remarkable.

Every apostle knows that promoting chapter difficulty is an act of shooting without looking back.

Many apostles either misjudged their own strength, or their hands were twitching, or they wanted to take a gamble... and rashly increased the difficulty level, causing the level to fall into an endless loop.

Due to various reasons, there are many apostles trapped in an infinite loop. It can even be said that unless the apostles can pass the final difficulty, the final ending will not be able to escape.

There are two ways to get stuck, one is to get stuck actively, and the other is to get stuck passively.

For these passive apostles, a 'retrospective bookmark' that can return to the previous difficulty chapter is more precious than an artifact.

Lin Xun was not thinking of apostles who were passively stuck, but thought of some apostles who were actively stuck...

"I heard that many members of the organization have stayed at a certain level of difficulty for a long time because of the irreversible promotion mechanism, and dare not rush to promotion. This is the so-called active blocking."

"If I can operate this 'retrospective bookmark' well, the benefits it will bring may be immeasurable..."

Lin Xun temporarily put away the bookmark, thinking of finishing this chapter first before making a decision.

Because every time he completes a chapter, he immediately starts the next difficulty of the Heaven-Defying Apostle. If he doesn't keep it all, he will have to use the 'backtracking bookmark' on himself...

[The 'librarian' saw you accepting the three bookmarks and put his hand into his robe again...]

"No, there is more?"

Lin Xun was shocked.

[He took out nothing for a while, then slapped his forehead and realized that the reward was not in his pocket, but on his face.]

['Librarian' takes off the monocle in front of his eyes and hands it to you...]

[You have obtained the ‘Librarian’s Monocle’! 】

Lin Xun thought the administrator was going to take out some big treasure again, but it turned out to be the 'monocle' that comes every time.
To be continued...
