My Skills Have Special Effects

The second day.

Lin Yan was about to go to Liu Lanqing to ask if the next patrol would continue. As soon as he went out, he met Yu Qian and Jiao Liang.

Are they back?

Yu Qian walked in front, and Jiao Liang followed beside him with a smile, chatting with Yu Qian from time to time, but Yu Qian looked repulsive and ignored him.

"Senior Brother Lin!"

Seeing Lin Yan, Yu Qian's eyes suddenly lit up, and she walked up to him in three steps at a time: "Senior Brother Lin, long time no see."

Lin Yan nodded towards her, clearly seeing a feeling of resentment in Jiao Liang behind him.

"Jiao Liang, I heard that the spiritual essence buried this time is only of the first grade, which corresponds to the strength of the Hard Realm. Aren't you already at the Hard Realm?"

Jiao Liang touched his head: "Well, if you don't bury it, it will be in vain."

He pulled up his cuffs and exposed his wrists. There was a shallow wound on them: "And my kung fu is practiced on my feet. After burying the spiritual marrow in my hands, it can greatly increase the strength of my arms. It can also reach The rigid realm can be regarded as improving your strength!"

Lin Yan nodded. The spiritual marrow was a very strange thing. So far, Lin Yan still didn't know where it came from. Especially what Guo Fan said before his death made him feel a sense of resistance to the spiritual marrow.

"Where have you been for the past five days?"

There was hesitation on Jiao Liang's face, but Yu Qian kept to herself and said, "Senior Brother Lin, we went to a weird thing in the past five days, probably a ship!"

"Maybe it's a boat? What's weird about it?"

Yu Qian seemed to recall some extremely shocking scene: "That boat, it was huge! I can't describe it. Anyway, it was very big, about the same size as a square in Ding'an City!

"And there isn't a single piece of wood in the whole body! It's completely made of iron!

“I really don’t know how a ship made of iron can float?

"By the way, the weirdest thing is...this ship emerged from the bottom of the water!"

Ironclad ship!

Lin Yan gasped.

As for Yu Qian, who was still thinking about herself, she said: "At that time, we first went from a hidden cave to the ground, followed the Netherworld River, and walked to the side of a huge lake. The iron-clad ship suddenly appeared. Before, It stays underwater!"

Stay underwater?

Not just an ironclad ship, but a submarine?

Lin Yan looked around and saw the dilapidated roof tiles, backward productivity...

There was an uncontrollable sense of absurdity on his face, so Fucheng is really a place where civilization surpasses Ding'an City?

Being able to build a submarine shows the level of civilization in Fucheng. At least the steam era has started!

It was as if a layer of mystery had been lifted from the world. When Lin Yan looked at the ordinary things around him, he felt a strange sense of strangeness.

On the contrary, Yu Qian and others, because they did not understand the meaning behind these things, were immersed in the magical worship and yearning for Fucheng.

Taking a deep breath, Lin Yan calmed down his restless mood: "What about your scheduled talent competition? Have you told you how the selection method is?"

Yu Qian nodded and said: "I heard that there will be a month of unified training first, and then a month later, tasks will be assigned, and the nouns will be arranged according to the tasks received and assigned, and finally there will be a final selection... The process is quite complicated. , said to last three to four months.

"This was all arranged by the new teacher Ling from Qianyuan Academy. It is said to be more fair."

And unified training?

Is this manpower enough?

Separating from Yu Qian, Lin Yan went straight to the side hall where Liu Lanqing was.

Just as he was walking through two doors, a burst of intense heat and frost suddenly rose up, and Liu Lanqing's furious voice came from afar: "Ling Shuangxue, you are going too far!"

Lin Yan paused for a moment. Hey, let's go there at another time.

After returning to his own hall, he first talked with Xiaozhi and Senior Sister Chen, and then started practicing "Tiger Shape Fist" in the courtyard.

"Mingfeng Spear" requires a big gun, and with his current strength, ordinary guns cannot withstand it, so he doesn't have time to find one yet.

I practiced like this for two back and forth, dong dong dong.

There was a knock on the door.

"Lin Yan, is Lin Yan at home?!"

One eye lay in the crack of the door and looked inward.

Lin Yan opened the door: "Ning Xiaohui, what are you doing here?"

"I'm looking for you. Alas, I don't know if you are lucky or not. Come on, Lord White Palm is looking for you!"

"Find me?"

Lin Yan and Ning Xiaohui walked out hand in hand and soon entered the side hall where Liu Lanqing had been.

At this time, most of the side hall had collapsed, half was burnt to coke, and half was white with frost. Liu Lanqing and Ling Shuangxue had disappeared.

Bering was standing in the middle, pressing his forehead with a distressed look on his face.

"Lin Yan, you are here."

Bailing explained helplessly, and Lin Yan realized that there were only five people coming to Qianyuan Academy this time, and they were short of manpower to carry out the plan, so they wanted to recruit patrol guards.

In particular, he was asked by name to ask Lin Yan to be seconded to Ling Shuangxue.

"why me?"

"You were born in Ding'an City. Unlike others, you are registered with the Demon Suppression Division, so strictly speaking, you are not considered a Demon Suppression Guard. It is reasonable for Ling Shuangxue to second you."

Naturally, there is a question mark on this reasonableness. If he is overwhelmed by strength, there is no need to worry about reason. But now that Liu Lanqing has an evenly matched opponent, he has to talk about reason.

Lin Yan hesitated for a moment, raised his hands and asked respectfully: "Master Baizhang, I wonder why this Teacher Ling must second me?"

Bai Ling shook his head and said, "Isn't this just a little girl's trick? She just saw that Liu Lanqing liked you, so she tried every means to stumble Liu Lanqing!"

"Is that so..."

The conflict between these two people seems to be very deep, but are they using such childish and funny methods?

"Then Lord White Palm, may I boldly ask, what should I do after being seconded?"

Bai Ling was stunned for a moment, and looked at Lin Yan with more and more satisfied eyes. This meant that he was willing to listen to the orders of the Demon Suppressing Division.

"We don't want this childish way of playing things. After this is over, just do things impartially and fulfill your responsibilities. Your secondment is only for one month, and you can come back after one month."

"yes."

After leaving the door, Ning Xiaohui was still waiting at the door.

"Lin Yan, what, you still have to go on patrol?"

Lin Yan nodded.

Ning Xiaohui patted Lin Yan on the shoulder: "Don't be discouraged. At least, it's safe to stay in Ding'an City! You're not like us, you have to be in a trance and explore the ruins!"

Lin Yan nodded again. If possible, he actually wanted to move freely to see if he could find an opportunity to hunt more and accumulate some spiritual essence.

But Ning Xiaohui was right, the insect swarm alone in the ruins was already very dangerous, and there was no telling what was underneath.

"Xiao Zhi's illness is related to the ruins. No matter what, I will eventually go and investigate."

Another day later.

The Demon Suppressing Division, or now it should be called the City Lord's Mansion.

In the hall, Lin Yan stood with his hands folded, and Ling Shuangxue in front of him sat like that, looking straight at him with a pair of crescent-shaped eyebrows.

But there was not much goodwill among them. On the contrary, Lin Yan could clearly feel that the air in the surrounding environment was becoming bitingly cold.

Lin Yan's heart trembled.

I always felt that this Ling Shuangxue came with bad intentions. It didn't seem like he was targeting Liu Lanqing, but rather he was targeting him!

I took an antigen test today and it turned out to be COVID-19... No wonder I was struggling yesterday. I really have no energy today. I only have so much...

There have been a lot of rising suns recently, so please be careful...
