Chapter 198 The Awakening of the Super Guide (13)
Despite saying that, Jingli was still worried that she might hurt Qijian, so she was more careful when gathering energy and unconsciously condensed a small lamp on his chest.
After realizing what had happened, Jingli smiled helplessly.
From the second world onwards, this action seemed to have become a habit for him.
Jingli didn't know if the lamp had any effect in the simulation system; at least its shape wasn't visible.
Qi Jian felt a warm sensation in his chest, giving him a sense of complete safety, which was extremely rare for him. As a sentry and a soldier during wartime, he had to remain vigilant at all times to ensure timely response to potential crises.
But now, enveloped by the little guide's spiritual power, he really... wanted to get a good night's sleep.
·
The person whose wrist was being held by Jingli gradually slowed their breathing, seemingly having fallen asleep.
Jing Li breathed a sigh of relief. He spent ten minutes trying to calm Qi Jian down, but he only managed to get rid of the fist-sized amount of spiritual energy. The remaining spiritual energy was relatively well-behaved under Jing Li's protection. However, Jing Li knew that as soon as he removed his energy lamp and his spiritual energy restraints, these things would become agitated again and disrupt Qi Jian's mental landscape.
Jingli thought that he still needed to grow up quickly. In this special time, only by demonstrating sufficient strength could he gain greater power and do more things.
For example, helping Qi Jian with guidance, and resolving the issue of sentinels and guides within Blue Stone Kingdom and even the world.
The bright energy transformed into spiritual power, turning into fluffy, fuzzy threads that seemed to playfully dart around within the sentinel's body. In reality, each of their landing points was carefully designed, like the foundation of an array, steadily binding the restless spiritual power.
If you look closely, you'll see that Jingli is actually drawing the array within Qi Jian's simulated body.
Although the body in the simulation system is fictional, the spirit injected into the system is real, judging from the effects it can achieve.
The body in the system is like a template, and Jingli also wants to conduct an experiment.
If this wisp of spirit could carry the formation back into Qi Jian's body, then he would at least feel a little more comfortable after leaving the virtual system.
Live a little longer, give him some time.
The whole process lasted less than twenty minutes. As a soldier, Qi Jian never allowed himself to let his mind wander for more than ten minutes. Today, he had been able to wander for fifteen minutes, which was exceptionally unusual.
When he woke up, Jingli had just finished drawing the last stroke of the formation.
"How are you feeling?" Jingli asked somewhat guiltily.
It seems like he took a little too long.
A hint of surprise flashed in Qi Jian's eyes. He checked the time, his expression changed slightly, but he still said gently, "I feel great, thank you, you're amazing."
Jingli breathed a sigh of relief and scratched her head sheepishly: "I'm not very skilled yet, so it took me a little longer. I hope to have the opportunity to personally help you with the guidance."
Qi Jian had already stood up and straightened his clothes, which were not wrinkle-free: "No need to be modest, I also... hope that day will come."
In the last half of his sentence, Qi Jian's tone held a subtle, almost imperceptible bitterness, but he quickly composed himself and reminded him:
"In the simulation system, after each stage of practice is completed, the system will enter the loading area."
"In the loading area, sentinels and guides will be randomly matched to practice mental guidance. Generally, one guide will be matched with 2-5 sentinels."
"Since you've just enrolled, if you feel mentally exhausted, you can select the 'new student' option on the login screen. This will only match you with other students, and it will consume less mental energy."
What Qi Jian said was actually the login instructions. Jing Li glanced at it briefly but didn't pay much attention to it, nor did she choose the new student icon.
Actually, when a new student logs into the system for the first time, the system defaults to prioritizing matching with student sentries. However, Jingli's clearance speed is too fast, and there aren't many sentries in the queue at this time. Just then, Qi Jian, who was logging into the system as usual before the morning meeting, happened to be there.
That's why the two of them met here.
Jingli obediently replied, "I understand."
"Thank you so much for your guidance today. See you next time."
As soon as he finished speaking, Qi Jian's figure disappeared in a hurry.
He was a full ten minutes late for the morning meeting, but of course, the circumstances were unknown.
After Qi Jian left, two more sentries entered. They were the two ladies we had seen on the bus before: Jin Yun, whose mental strength was C+ and whose mental form was a leopard, and Fu Li, whose mental strength was A-A+ and whose mental form was a snow wolf.
Both of them had just awakened and had not yet experienced any major storms. Their mental strength showed no signs of turmoil, so Jingli's guidance was easy, taking only two minutes for each of them.
The morning flew by. Jingli went through three stages of training, passed through two loading zones, and helped the twelve sentries with their mental well-being.
It was only then that he realized that the system's assessment of 2-5 sentinels only had a lower limit, not an upper limit. The entire loading zone was determined by time, and what it actually looked at was the sum of time and the mental energy used.
In other words, each guide can stay in the loading area for a maximum of thirty minutes. If the guide's mental energy can fill the "loading tank" within thirty minutes, they will directly enter the next stage of practice.
However, if it is not filled, it will automatically enter the next stage of practice after thirty minutes.
The loading area is actually a place for guides to practice their mental abilities.
This is why Jingli only helped three people with the first phase. Qi Jian had already used enough mental energy to fill the loading bar, but he didn't reach the target of two people, so he added a new person. However, Jingli helped the second person too quickly, and the new phase hadn't started yet. Fu Li stepped into this gap and also entered.
After the second phase ended, the matched sentries were mostly students, with an average of one every two to five minutes. The traffic control was completed quickly, easily breaking the record for traffic control in a single loading zone—9 people.
The freshmen didn't feel it much yet, but the upperclassmen were in an uproar.
The students who were lucky enough to have been guided by Jingli boasted to their close friends: "My god, do you know that S-rank guide today? I was matched with him this morning! Guess how much my riot value dropped!"
Similar conversations echoed throughout the campus, with the final numbers ranging from 10 to 30.
At first glance, it doesn't seem like much, but this is the result after being weakened by the simulation system. If it were outside the system—
Just thinking about it made everyone gasp.
"You have no idea, I was planning to take a nap in the loading area as usual, but as soon as I closed my eyes, he said—'It's done!'"
"Yes, I thought he was unwilling to help me with the counseling, but after the test! Oh my god! It was even more effective than face-to-face counseling before!"
"Short time and high efficiency, is this the power of an S-class guide?!"
"Please bless me to be matched with 001 next time! What's his nickname? I'll follow him! I'll pray for him every day!"
