"Silver intermediate... same as me..." Ye Feng couldn't help but mutter. After the previous battle, he found that in the [Personal Information] panel, he was already Silver intermediate.
"Mithril... Yun Yao, I should be Mithril too!"
After a pause, Ye Feng spoke again. He had heard Leng Yue mention before that Mithril was a special situation within the Silver strength level. People at this level, while still Silver, often possessed unique abilities and their combat power differed from ordinary Silver powerhouses.
"This... I am Mithril. Although my strength level is Silver intermediate, even if I were tested in the Golden Hall of the Arcane City, I would still be Silver intermediate..."
"But in a life-and-death battle, even an Arcanist of Golden Grade two might not be able to defeat me for sure!"
Shen Yun Yao paused at this point and looked at Ye Feng with a strange gaze, "Ye Feng, as for you, I'm not sure if you are Mithril. The combat power you displayed earlier... is already an unbelievably bizarre existence..."
"Grandfather said that even if he wasn't injured, he would definitely not be your opponent... Grandfather has already surpassed Gold, broken through to Diamond grade nine, and reached Half-step Epic..."
"I've never heard of anyone at the Silver level being able to fight across so many ranks at once... Silver to Gold, Gold to Diamond, two major tiers require special strength..."
"The vast majority of Arcanists are at the Silver level. Those who cultivate for a very long time will see their combat power increase, and some will become Mithril... There aren't many powerhouses above Gold, even among the seven major forces!"
"Teacher Cang encountered a group of Golden-strength monsters who ambushed and surrounded him this time, and was severely injured... Fortunately, Dean Shen arrived in time to save him..." Shen Yun Yao explained rapidly to Ye Feng.
"Is that so... It seems I really am Mithril!" Hearing Shen Yun Yao's words, Ye Feng had a more accurate judgment of his own strength. After all, the power that instantly killed the Hell Three-Headed Dog, surpassing Shen Bo Tian, was not his, but the Tang Dao's... and it was very likely related to that mysterious old man in plain clothes...
"Sister Yun Yao, what is an Arcanist?" At this moment, Xiao Xiao woke up. She vaguely heard Shen Yun Yao's words and asked curiously.
"It's a practitioner of Arcane energy, a shortened term. This abbreviation is most common in the Arcane City!" Shen Yun Yao looked at Xiao Xiao, who had just sat up from the rattan chair, and said.
"So that's how it is~" Xiao Xiao rubbed her eyes, got off the rattan chair, picked up a few coconuts from the ground, made holes with a small knife, and then handed them to Ye Feng and Shen Yun Yao, while also drinking herself. It was evident that Xiao Xiao quite liked this pure coconut water...
...
The next day, after two days of rest, the wounds on Ye Feng and Xiao Xiao had scabbed over, and their stamina had almost recovered. Only Ye Feng himself still felt the fatigue deep in his muscles.
Around ten in the morning, led by Shen Yun Yao, Ye Feng and Xiao Xiao were walking within Mecha City. Since it was a cloudy day, there was no scorching sun, and with a gentle breeze, the three walked very comfortably.
After some walking, Ye Feng was once again amazed by Shen Bo Tian's control and management ability over the entire Mecha City. Monsters and the like had basically been eliminated. Apart from a large number of damaged buildings, Mecha City had almost returned to its previous state, and everyone was busy living their lives as usual...
"By the way, Yun Yao, do you know Guo Zhen Chen?" Walking on the road, Ye Feng saw a Toyota Prado that had been reduced to scrap iron and asked Shen Yun Yao. He remembered that the guy named Guo Zhen Chen also drove such a car.
"Guo Zhen Chen? From the Guo family? Guo Ba's son?" Shen Yun Yao pondered for a moment and asked.
"Yes, it's him, a big bad guy!" As soon as Shen Yun Yao finished speaking, Xiao Xiao's voice, full of anger, rang out. Obviously, the previous encounters with Guo Zhen Chen had left Xiao Xiao with a very bad impression of him, especially the time he took his anger out on Xu Deng Deng...
"Uh... Guo Zhen Chen participated in the rebellion of Wang Ba Tian and others. Many people were ambushed and destroyed everywhere in Mecha City. The messy monsters were secretly brought in by them under the guise of transporting goods to Mecha City..."
"Guo Zhen Chen, Guo Ba, and others also took the opportunity to ambush the Imperial Guard and have already been killed!" Looking at Xiao Xiao's angry face, Shen Yun Yao couldn't help but ask curiously, "Xiao Xiao, do you have a grudge against that person?"
"That person..." Xiao Xiao walked forward with Shen Yun Yao, talking about the several unpleasant encounters she had with Guo Zhen Chen before.
...
Lunch was still in the old wooden house from before. However, Shen Bo Tian was not present this time, only Shen Yun Yao, Ye Feng, and Xiao Xiao. Ye Feng could understand this. After all, although Mecha City was largely stable now, there were certainly many matters that Shen Bo Tian, as the City Lord, had to decide upon.
...
After a sumptuous lunch, Xiao Xiao and Shen Yun Yao took a nap. Then, the two women went shopping, while Ye Feng began to attempt to repair Shen Yun Yao's crystal pendant. Ye Feng examined the crystal pendant for a while, his eyes narrowed, and arcane energy glowed on his hands...
...
In the evening, Shen Yun Yao and Xiao Xiao returned with bags and bags of purchases. Xiao Xiao was even humming a tune, clearly having had a very happy afternoon shopping.
"Ah!"
"Big Brother, what's wrong?" As soon as Xiao Xiao reached the doorway, she suddenly cried out in surprise, her voice full of worry. This was because she saw Ye Feng lying on the ground, with a large black patch on him, seemingly some kind of black juice.
Shen Yun Yao, who was by the pond preparing to do something, heard the sound and immediately ran over.
"Xiao Xiao, I'm fine~!" Hearing Xiao Xiao's voice, Ye Feng, who was on the ground, moved, opened his eyes, and sat up.
"Ye Feng, what is that on you?" Shen Yun Yao crouched down and pointed at the black liquid on Ye Feng.
"Oh, that's ink."
"This afternoon, while I was repairing your crystal pendant, I had some ideas about arcane runes and formations and wanted to write them down... Later, I was too tired... and fell asleep. I didn't expect to knock over the ink..." Ye Feng scratched his head. "Repairing your crystal pendant might take more time. There are some things I need to verify again. I have a good idea, but it needs to be validated!"
"Oh, okay~~!"
"Don't rush, take your time. It's okay if you can't fix it!" Shen Yun Yao smiled at Ye Feng. In reality, Ye Feng hadn't fallen asleep just now. He had passed out due to exhaustion from using another stream of arcane energy within him while repairing the crystal pendant... Even so, he was very happy because he had thought of something very interesting!
