Legendary Person: I brought my skills back to reality!

Xu Hao held his breath and gently placed the Spirit Awakening Stone on Lin Ya's forehead. The Spirit Awakening Stone emitted a soft white light, enveloping Lin Ya. After a few seconds, the white light slowly merged into Lin Ya's forehead and disappeared.

At the same time, a series of system notifications rang in Xu Hao's mind:

"Ding! Spirit Stone successfully used!"

"Ding! You have found a target for spiritual awakening: Lin Ya."

"Ding! The target has not yet chosen a career. Do you wish to proceed with the career selection now?"

Xu Hao silently replied in his mind without hesitation, "Yes!"

The next moment, a virtual system interface popped up in front of him, displaying Lin Ya's character information.

Looking at Lin Ya's character information, Xu Hao couldn't help but smile slightly.

"System, select a class for Lin Ya—Mage!"

"Ding! Career selection successful! The target has successfully become a mage!"

As the system notification sounded, Lin Ya's character information also changed accordingly.

Name: Lin Ya

Level: 1 (Mage)

"Next, it's time to level up," Xu Hao muttered to himself.

He took out two experience scrolls from his backpack and used them on Lin Ya without hesitation.

"Ding! The target has gained some experience points!"

"Ding! Target character's level has increased to level 10!"

"Ding! Target character's level has increased to level 13!"

As the system notification sounded, Lin Ya's level rapidly increased, eventually settling at level 13.

The mage class primarily focuses on magical attacks, and doesn't offer significant improvements to physical attributes. Therefore, even after leveling up several times, Lin Ya's body didn't undergo any noticeable changes; she remained lying quietly, breathing evenly, as if she had simply fallen into a deep sleep.

Xu Hao looked at Lin Ya and thought to himself, "Next time, I'll prepare skill books and equipment for Sister Lin Ya. From now on, the world will have another powerful superhuman, and one that can grow!"

In the office of the Bureau of Mystery Management, filled with smoke, Zheng Jinqiang irritably stubbed out his cigarette, looked up at the woman standing opposite him, and said earnestly, "Xiao Su, what I mean is, you should stay in logistics. Look at you, your injuries haven't fully healed yet, and if they flare up, it'll be like your life is in danger. Why bother? Why insist on going to the front lines of the action team?"

Su Qing gently moved her wrist, a gruesome scar standing out starkly against her fair skin—a souvenir from her last mission. She looked at Zheng Jinqiang with unwavering determination, her voice firm: "Director Zheng, I still stand by my decision. I want to go to the front lines! My injury has almost healed; it won't affect my ability to carry out the mission."

Zheng Jinqiang rubbed his temples helplessly. This girl was good in every way, except she was too stubborn; once she made up her mind, nothing could change it. He sighed and finally gave in: "Alright, alright, you go and be Shi Shaowei's second-in-command! I'll talk to him later. During the battle, you're not allowed to be at the forefront! That's an order!"

Su Qing forced a smile. Leaving Zheng Jinqiang's office, she knew Director Zheng cared about her, but she didn't want to stay in the logistics department any longer. She longed to return to the front lines, longed to be like those strange beings, seeking revenge.

But she hadn't gone far when that familiar chill washed over her like a tidal wave, instantly engulfing her entire body. Su Qing gritted her teeth, trying hard to remain calm and not make a sound. She leaned against the wall, moving step by step, trying to find a place to rest.

The corridor was deserted. Su Qing's steps grew heavier and heavier, and the scenery before her eyes began to blur. She felt as if her body had fallen into an ice cellar, the biting cold seeping into her bones, making her shiver involuntarily. Large beads of sweat rolled down her forehead, dampening her temples, but Su Qing felt no warmth; instead, she felt even colder.

Finally, Su Qing saw an empty office. Mustering her last bit of strength, she pushed open the door and went inside. The office was quiet, with only faint noise coming from outside the window. Su Qing leaned weakly against the door, her body slowly sliding down until she finally collapsed to the floor.

She hugged her arms tightly, trying to draw warmth, but to no avail. The chill clung to her like a leech, making it hard to breathe, as if a huge rock was pressing on her chest, suffocating her. Su Qing's face was as pale as paper, her lips bloodless, and her body trembled uncontrollably.

She knew this was a lingering ailment from her past battles. Each flare-up felt like falling into an ice cave, causing her excruciating pain. Su Qing gritted her teeth, silently enduring this unimaginable suffering. She didn't want anyone to see her vulnerable side, and she certainly didn't want to give up her dream of returning to the front lines because of her physical condition.

I cannot fall... I must... take revenge...

After seeing Su Qing off, Zheng Jinqiang sat at his desk, deep in thought. His brow furrowed, he took a deep drag on his cigarette, the thick smoke obscuring his face and making him appear even more troubled. He forcefully stubbed out the cigarette and picked up his phone to dial Shi Shaowei's number.

“Hey, Shao Wei,” Zheng Jinqiang’s voice was full of exhaustion, “That girl Xiao Su is back and she’s going to your place. Keep an eye on her for me and don’t let her do anything reckless.”

Shi Shaowei on the other end of the phone paused for a moment, then realized what Zheng Jinqiang was referring to, and his tone became serious: "Director Zheng, don't worry, I understand. I will keep an eye on Su Qing and make sure she doesn't go to the front line."

"Sigh..." Zheng Jinqiang sighed deeply, "This child is just too stubborn. The last mission was a huge blow to her. Her childhood sweetheart died before her eyes, and she was also seriously injured. When this old ailment flares up, it's like it's going to kill her. I'm just afraid that she... is going to do something drastic!"

Shi Shaowei remained silent for a moment. He knew about Su Qing's situation. After that mission, Su Qing was like a different person, taciturn, her eyes filled with sadness and hatred. He knew Su Qing wanted revenge and wanted to return to the front lines to fight, but her physical condition simply wouldn't allow it.

If you have a meltdown while playing, aren't you just feeding the enemy kills?

"Director Zheng, don't worry, I will talk to her and help her." Shi Shaowei said firmly, "I will keep a close eye on her and make sure nothing happens to her."

Zheng Jinqiang rubbed his temples, his tone tinged with hope: "Hey?! Do you think Xu Hao has any good solutions for Xiao Su's illness? Isn't that kid good at making medicine? Those two kinds of pills you brought back last time, weren't they quite effective?"

Shi Shaowei pondered for a moment and said, "Xu Hao's abilities are indeed very special. Perhaps he really does have a way. How about this, Director Zheng, I'll find some time to ask him and see if he has any way to cure Su Qing's illness."

"Okay, okay, then I'll trouble you." A hint of relief finally appeared in Zheng Jinqiang's voice. "That poor kid, Xiao Su, has such a hard life..."
