Chapter 18 -19: Terrifying Talent_1
Li Xingyue quickly said, “Soul talent relates to the organization’s evaluation of your personal potential and resource allocation.”
“If your talent is outstanding, the organization will nurture you intensively. Not only will your salary and benefits increase, but you will also receive abundant rewards of items. So, please do not conceal it.”
Noticing that Lin Xun seemed hesitant, Ye Xiaoqi pouted her lips and directly revealed her soul talent, “Eye of Truth” to him.
The Eye of Truth, can discover hidden items and branching options within the game.
In reality, it also can observe if a soul is out of ordinary.
“We will be colleagues in the future and we need to cooperate with each other. Having complete trust and understanding about each other is the most important.”
Ye Xiaoqi was so candid, treating him as no outsider.
Lin Xun slightly frowned, thinking quickly.
His soul talent affected his salary and resource allocation within the organization.
If he lied about his talent or underrated it, then he wouldn’t receive the resources from the organization.
However, revealing all his cards also seemed improper.
The current situation was like a boss inquiring about his education to determine his salary.
He couldn’t underplay himself as having only a middle school degree to avoid being allocated to a low paid position on the production line.
Neither could he foolishly expose all his abilities.
After playing the game for some time, he vaguely felt that his talent, Thousand Faces and Million Forms, seemed to focus on increasing the Shell slots to achieve multiple identities, but it wasn’t so straightforward.
The most important thing in his talent should be the affinity, not the additional Shell slots.
Increased affinity allows him to possess Boss Shells that he originally shouldn’t be able to. This essentially disrupts the game balance.
Upon deeper thought, once he upgraded his talent a few more times and improved his affinity, Lin Xun would be able to possess every Boss Shell he encountered, regardless of its affinity.
The increase in Shell slots seemed to be more of a support for possessing multiple Boss Shells.
A player being able to possess the Shell of a strong Boss is more absurd than having several weak character Shells.
Having thought this through, Lin Xun decided to conceal the part about increasing affinity and only disclose the part about increasing Shell slots. This way, he could be valued by the organization and have resource allocation while keeping his trump card.

“My soul talent is called Thousand Faces and Million Forms which can increase Shell slots.”
He didn’t reveal the part about the talent being able to increase affinity.
“Wait! Did you say Shell slots?”
Ye Xiaoqi lifted her head, her expression was as if she had seen a ghost, even forgetting to type.
Li Xingyue was also taken aback with her mouth slightly open, her beautiful peach blossom eyes wide open. The icy temperament had vanished, and instead, she appeared somewhat dumbfounded.
Li Xingyue and Ye Xiaoqi exchanged glances, both seeing the astonishment and puzzlement in each other’s eyes.
“Yes, it’s the slots to carry additional Shells.” Lin Xun suddenly realized, “You mean you guys don’t have Shell slots?”
The short-haired girl had completely lost her composure, muttering to herself, “I knew it, I knew it. Such a powerful soul, the talent is indeed extremely aberrant…”
The cool and aloof woman with open cherry lips seemed to be thinking about how to phrase her words. It was quite a while before she said, “Lin, Lin Xun, don’t you realize how terrifying your talent is?”
Although Lin Xun vaguely felt that his talent was somewhat abnormal, there was no harm without comparison. He didn’t know what the talents of other Apostles were, so naturally, he didn’t think highly of himself.
With a blank expression, Li Xingyue didn’t know whether he was boasting or truly unaware. She explained, “Each time we get a new Shell in the game, we have to abandon the current one. There’s no such thing as a Shell slot. We can only reshape the current shell.”
Ye Xiaoqi also repeatedly nodded, “We could only retain the items and equipment after abandoning the old Shell, the level and skills couldn’t be inherited. So even if we got a new Shell, we had to carefully consider whether or not to abandon the old one.”
“Lin Xun, your talent has immense potential. I need to report this to the organization to get the best treatment for you. Rest assured, you will definitely benefit!”
Li Xingyue concluded, then she adjusted her sitting position – she stopped leaning against the sofa back and sat upright.
Her round and slender thighs, wrapped in black stockings under the package skirt, were particularly enticing. This posture prominently displayed her exaggerated curves.
Lin Xun thought to himself, I only told you about the Shell slots and it already excited you this much. If I also revealed the talent of increasing affinity, wouldn’t the two of you be so excited that you’d take off into the sky?
The black stocking goddess conjured a glowing bookmark out of thin air and handed it to him.
[Anchoring Bookmark: After use, you can anchor the current chapter. After returning to the Library, you can enter the subsequent chapters of the anchored chapter when you enter again.]
“This bookmark is very precious and extremely difficult to get. It’s very valuable, so don’t use it lightly.”
After saying this, she picked up the landline and dialed a number. The tone was cold once the call was connected, “Nobody from any team is to be admitted before I notify you guys. Block them all outside the building!”
The female boss then gave him a smile that was as warming as the spring.
“Xiaoxi, take Lin Xun to the meeting room to rest for a while, wait for my notice…”
