Chapter 5 - 5, Perception skills, unable to perceive

Lu Lin thought about it, feeling even more desperate.

Opening the door was impossible.

There was even less chance he would say "welcome."

His time of freedom was running out, as Lu Lin could be captured by a Secret Star Martial Team at any moment.

Given the situation, he decided to take this opportunity to write a message for his mom and dad.

Perhaps, it would be more fitting to call it a last testament.

"Dear mom and dad, I'm sorry, by the time you read this email, I might be dead..."

No, he couldn't write that way.

Lu Lin deleted all the words he had typed.

Although his mother Meng Yu seemed carefree, Lu Lin knew that she was actually a timid woman deep inside. She would be scared and jumpy when encountering insects at work, and would call for his dad's help to deal with them.

If she heard the news of his death out of the blue, her life index would instantly break through the critical value, and the consequences would be unimaginable.

Lu Lin wrote his testament in hopes that his parents would forget about him, not to make them worry about him.

After thinking for a while, Lu Lin started writing again.

"Dear mom and dad, you may not expect it, but I've successfully awakened! GrinningWithTeeth.jpg"

"Although it's not the Gold System I wanted, awakening with the Earth-based attribute is not bad either. My initial Star Vein Refinement Degree has reached the theoretical limit of 0.99%. How about that? Your son is impressive."

"After learning about my Star Vein Refinement Degree, countless large companies' CEOs have personally contacted me, including but not limited to the Blue Star Branch President of Deep Space Bank, the Blue Star Chief Operating Officer of QingShan Network, and the Federal Mobile Hua Xia Region General Manager, among others. They all see my potential and want to invest in me and cultivate me."

"In the next month, I will choose the best company..."

Upon writing about the time frame, Lu Lin paused again.

If he said it like that, his parents would think he had really joined a prestigious company as a trainee and still hold onto hope.

Even if a large company were to arrange a closed training for Lu Lin, it wouldn't exceed one month.

After all, he had to start university in a month.

By then, his parents, without hearing any news from him, would be even more disappointed.

Lu Lin thought about it and deleted all the content he had just written.

"Mom and dad, it's a disaster, I've been kidnapped by Star pirates. They are demanding a ransom of 1 million. If we can't pay up, they'll kill me. I know our family's situation, so I told the pirates not to bother contacting you."

No, this doesn't make any sense. How could there be Star pirates on Blue Star, the mother planet of Humans? He had to rewrite.

"Mom and dad, there's no time left. In thirty seconds, I'll be transversing. I wish you good health and happiness..."

No, transversing is too far-fetched. His parents wouldn't believe it upon seeing it and would think Lu Lin was joking with them. He had to rewrite.

"Mom and dad, I'm sorry... I love you."

"Please don't be sad for my unannounced departure and don't look for me. While you're still young, have a little brother or sister for me..."

As Lu Lin wrote this, his emotions unconsciously poured into it.

Suddenly, he felt something touching him.

It was the household Electromagnetic Robot.

Could it be? Even it knew that he was about to leave, and it was reluctant to let him go?

For a moment, Lu Lin couldn't help but feel sad.

"Master, it's time for lunch."

"Blue Star High School Standard Nutritional Lunch will make you healthier."

As the Electromagnetic Robot spoke, it took out three tube-shaped nutritional meals and waited.

These three tube-shaped nutritional meals corresponded to the Energy Supplement (staple food), Bionic Protein Supplement (meat and bean food), and Multivitamin Supplement (vegetable food)...

Wait!!! This was not the time to worry about this.

Where was the Secret Star Martial Team?

Where was the strange doctor from the laboratory?

Where was the boarding laboratory?

How long had it been...

Lu Lin ignored the Electromagnetic Robot next to him and checked the time when he had taken a taxi home earlier.

10:11 AM.

Current time.

12:04 PM.

Two hours had gone by, and no one had come looking for him. Why? Why!

Was the Federation's senior-level emergency response so slow?

Or did the quantum optic brain think his data wasn't abnormal?

No matter what the reason was, Lu Lin quickly deleted what he had written earlier. He didn't want anyone to know he had such a sentimental side.

In his personal chip, there were several unread messages.

"Congratulations! Congratulations! Among the 112 students in Senior Three Class 3, 27 have awakened successfully, with an Awakening rate of 24.11%! Students, you are the best!"

This was a message sent by Teacher Li one hour ago. He skipped it.

"Dear user, many well-known companies such as Deep Space Bank and Federal Mobile are inviting you to submit your resume! Graduation season! Recruitment season! Don't miss out!"

This was a spam recruitment message. He skipped it.

"Mr. Lu Lin, you have successfully registered to join the Blue Star Star Martial Association. Click to enter the official website of the Association and learn more about Star Martial knowledge."

This was the registration information from the Star Martial Arts Association; Lu Lin had no time to look at it for now. He skipped it.

"Lu Lin, Citizen Number LXHX320102202112120305, your citizen information has been updated, click to view the details."

This is the one! This is the one!

Lu Lin's hands trembled as he clicked to view.

[Name: Lu Lin]

[Age: 18]

[Native Place: Saturn North Hill]

[School: Blue Star Huaxia District, Tongyuan City, Jinjian No.3 Middle School]

[Is Star Core Warrior: Yes]

[Star Core Attribute: Earth-based]

[Star Core Level: Zero Level First Stage]

...

This!

What's going on!

Of course, Lu Lin knew what Zero Level First Stage meant: Quasi-star Core Warriors with a Star Vein Refinement Degree of 0.01% - 9.99%.

But why is it Zero Level First Stage, not Zero Level Third Stage?

Lu Lin was filled with doubt.

Could it be that he saw it wrong when he awakened his Second Talent just now?

There is no Zero Level Third Stage refinement degree on the Second Star Vein.

All of this was just his imagination.

Perhaps, there isn't even a Second Star Vein.

Considering this possibility, Lu Lin suddenly could not sit still.

He closed his eyes and entered the Consciousness Universe again.

The Eyeball Star Core was there.

The two Star Veins were there.

The green coverage on the Earth-Type Star Vessel was still only a tiny sliver, about a 1% refinement degree.

That was correct. The green coverage on the Second Star Vein was still about 30%.

There was no change at all.

Lu Lin wondered what the cause was.

Star Core, unchanged. Star Vein, unchanged. Star Skill, unchanged... no, that's not right.

Lu Lin found that he could actually see the detailed introduction of the skill he had just acquired.

[Star Skill: Perception]

[Introduction: Your senses become sharper, even the tiniest changes cannot escape your perception! (Passive skill)]

[Remarks: Born with keen senses, you cannot be perceived by any other external things or any creatures! (Passive effect)]

Lu Lin suddenly realized.

This is a typical dual-use skill that can be used actively to perceive everything around it. When facing detection by others or other objects (such as Refinement Degree Detectors), it can also provide effective defense.

For Lu Lin, this effect was enormous.

I can't expose that I have two Talents.

I can't expose that I broke the Star Martial Warrior Law.

I can't expose my Transversal Identity.

It can be said that the passive effect brought by the Perception skill was very suitable for Lu Lin, even indispensable.

At this moment, Lu Lin couldn't help but clasp his hands together, feeling extremely fortunate.

"Master, it's time for lunch."

Once again, the voice of the Electromagnetic Robot rang in Lu Lin's ears. He was in high spirits, feeling exhilarated.

Grabbing the three tube-shaped nutritional meals in the robot's hand, he happily opened the lid and squeezed it hard into his mouth.

UGH...

Even happiness couldn't overcome the awful taste of the nutritional meal.
