Chapter 19 – Starry Night Dancer


At the moment when Nyx said these words, a virtual panel appeared in Lin Qiye’s eyes.

\”

Nyx’s healing progress: 3%

The conditions for obtaining rewards have been met, and Nyx’s divine abilities will be randomly drawn…

\”

Immediately, a virtual lottery wheel appeared and began to spin rapidly!

Lin Qiye could see that the wheel was divided into at least twenty different sections, with each section having a similar area. This meant that the probability of drawing these divine abilities was the same.

\”Night falls, dim eyes, falling stars, starburst technique, shimmering in the dark, nocturnal companion, transcendent reproduction…\”

The abilities on the spinning wheel dazzled Lin Qiye, but he felt that there seemed to be something strange mixed in…

What is transcendent reproduction? Is that even considered a divine ability?!

If he drew this ability, would he not even need to find a wife and be able to have a bunch of divine children on his own?

Hmm? That doesn’t sound too bad…

At the same time, Lin Qiye noticed that in one corner of the wheel, there was a narrow black area that was different in size from the other abilities, occupying about 1% of the total area.

The name of this divine ability was “Unknown”.

Unknown? What does that mean?

But it doesn’t matter. Lin Qiye believed that with his luck, he probably wouldn’t be able to draw that “Unknown” even if he tried a thousand times.

Lin Qiye took a deep breath and stared at the spinning wheel, his mind focused. The wheel began to slow down!

The pointer passed over each ability and finally stopped on one of the sections.

\”Starry Night Dancer…\” Lin Qiye sighed helplessly when he saw these words.

Judging by the name, this ability seemed much weaker than techniques like starburst or falling stars, but fortunately… it wasn’t transcendent reproduction.

This luck, truly worthy of me.

As the pointer stopped, the spinning wheel in front of Lin Qiye gradually dissipated, leaving only the four words “Starry Night Dancer” suspended in the air, their color becoming deeper.

Lin Qiye reached out and grabbed them!

Immediately, those four words turned into a black light and poured into Lin Qiye’s body!

Lin Qiye felt a mysterious energy rapidly transforming his body, as if his entire being, from soul to physical body, was being cleansed, giving him an extraordinary sense of comfort!

This feeling is truly wonderful.

This state lasted for about five seconds, and when it completely dissipated, Lin Qiye clearly felt that his body had changed.

In front of him, a few more lines of small characters slowly appeared.

\”

Starry Night Dancer:

In the dark night, your speed, strength, endurance, and recovery ability are five times that of usual;

In the dark night, your presence is not easily detected;

In the dark night, your intimidation towards other creatures is stronger;

You have the ability to communicate with other nocturnal animals.

\”

Seeing this, Lin Qiye couldn’t help but take a cold breath!

This ability, which didn’t seem very impressive, actually seemed incredibly powerful… Not to mention anything else, just the fact that his speed, strength, and endurance were five times that of usual was already insane!

Even with his ordinary physical qualities, as long as he participated in something like an Ironman triathlon at night, he would definitely break the Guinness World Record!

A five-fold increase would push his body to the limits of human capability!

And this was only under his current ordinary conditions. If he underwent systematic training, Lin Qiye couldn’t imagine how much he would grow.

Not to mention the stealth and communication abilities with nocturnal animals, which completely surpassed the limits of humanity.

Lin Qiye suppressed his excitement and took a deep breath.

He didn’t have any intention of joining the Night Watchman, nor did he want to fight mythical creatures, but as a high school student, it was impossible for him not to yearn for supernatural powers.

Besides, only by becoming stronger could he better protect his family.

Lin Qiye finally made up his mind and turned his gaze to Nyx in front of him.

At this moment, Nyx was gently looking at him, stroking his hair with her hand, murmuring to herself, “Danaus, where have you been for these three thousand years? Do you know how much I miss you…”

Lin Qiye silently sat there, his gaze towards Nyx filled with complexity.

Just as he had guessed, to the current Nyx, she couldn’t even distinguish between her own child and a vase. How could she recognize that Lin Qiye wasn’t her child?

She had become obsessed with longing, imagining everything around her as her own child, but… those bottles and jars were not real people and wouldn’t respond to Nyx.So, when Lin Qiye, a living, breathing, and talking human being appeared, Nyx seemed to come alive, finally finding her emotional anchor!

This was the first step in opening her heart, and the reason why the treatment progress jumped directly to 3%.

“Danaus, do you know how much your brother misses you? Give him a hug.” Nyx said with a smile, holding a vase up to Lin Qiye.

Lin Qiye: …

With no other choice, Lin Qiye could only take the vase and pretend to caress it.

At that moment, he glanced at Nyx’s arms and saw his other “brothers and sisters”…

He was taken aback!

In Nyx’s arms were several bottles and jars, each with a different color and label.

On one of the labels, Lin Qiye clearly saw a line of bold text.

—Fluphenazine (For Deities).

Lin Qiye stared at it, his mouth agape…

Fluphenazine? Why did that name sound so familiar?

Wasn’t this the medication that the psychiatrist had listed for him during the day? And there were two more words after it… For Deities?

In that instant, Lin Qiye seemed to have realized something, and he suddenly became excited!

He handed the vase back to Nyx and said hurriedly, “I’ll be right back!”

Then, like a gust of wind, he climbed up to the second floor of the mental hospital and found a room at the end of the staircase.

The medication storage room.

The door was open, Nyx must have been here before, otherwise, she wouldn’t have taken so many “brothers and sisters”.

Lin Qiye quickly entered, searched around, and finally stopped in front of a large metal cabinet, his eyes shining brighter.

In front of him was a wall full of medications!

These medications were diverse, and most of them were for treating mental illnesses, including the Fluphenazine and Chlorpromazine he had just seen, as well as a large number of sedatives.

Behind these medications, there were two words, “For Deities”.

A smile appeared on Lin Qiye’s face, he should have thought of this earlier! This was a mental hospital for treating deities, and naturally, there would be a room for storing medications, and the medications inside were all special medications for deities!

He couldn’t bring medications from the real world into the hospital, but he could find corresponding medications for deities here!

With this, things seemed to have become much simpler.

Lin Qiye picked a few medications that the doctor had listed during the day, ran downstairs to Nyx’s side.

“This one, this one is to be taken once a day, two pills each time… and this one, this one is to be taken three times a day, one pill each time… Remember to take them!”

Nyx was staring at Lin Qiye as if there was a flower on his face, seemingly not hearing what Lin Qiye was saying.

“Sigh… Never mind, I’ll feed you the medication when it’s time.” Lin Qiye sighed helplessly, looking at Nyx’s reaction.

Expecting a severe mental patient to remember to take her medication was indeed a bit too much to ask.

Upon hearing Lin Qiye’s words, a smile immediately bloomed on Nyx’s face.

She was very happy.
