Chapter 57: Public Transit Can’t Compare To Flash!
“Ge Bai, tell me in detail the entire process of being teleported to another Secret Realm Space this time, don’t miss any details.”
Back at the Jinggang Spirit Plant Research Institute, Professor Luo Wan said solemnly to Ge Bai.
Except for hiding the Shen Nong System, there was nothing in Ge Bai’s experience that she couldn’t talk about.
The core PY transaction truly involved was conducted between the Shen Nong System and the Cave Heaven Tree; she really didn’t know much about it.
Ge Bai explained the entire process to Professor Luo Wan in detail again, and also called out Thousand Generations Orchid for her to see. Only then did she let Ge Bai go.
“This matter is really too important. Later, Y Bureau will definitely send someone to communicate with the Cave Heaven Tree; there is still a lot of follow-up work.”
Professor Luo Wan sat behind the desk, her expression serious.
“You don’t need to worry about these things first. I’ll report the notification from Dragon Roaming Green Calyx Plum and your experience together to Y Bureau. If your help is still needed, we’ll contact you again.”
Professor Luo Wan’s two sentences were said very tactfully. In fact, she had already chosen to unconditionally believe Ge Bai’s experience and tied herself to Ge Bai.
This was equivalent to her using her many years of reputation to vouch for Ge Bai.
Ge Bai didn’t realize this. Seeing Professor Luo Wan start to get busy, she prepared to get up and say goodbye.
“By the way, don’t forget to go get a Measurement for Thousand Generations Spring Sword Orchid.”
Although Professor Luo Wan was also very interested in Space Attribute Spirit Plants, there was no way around it; the matter on her hands now was more important.
Ge Bai nodded in agreement, turned around, and went to the Testing Center.
The researchers here, who were originally handling the wrap-up work, heard that Ge Bai had returned again and there was another new Spirit Plant that also needed testing; they were already numb.
Is this a genius or a monster? Whatever, let it be what it is. Anyway, they are all ruthless overtime machines.
By the time Ge Bai walked out of the Spirit Plant Research Institute, it was already dark; this half day had been really fulfilling.
Stretching lazily, she touched the Spiritual Power Badge in her pocket and leisurely went to catch the last bus.
If only Thousand Generations Orchid could teleport her directly home, the darkness couldn’t stop Ge Bai from daydreaming big.
A distance of more than ten kilometers—now Thousand Generations Orchid’s Spatial Teleportation was probably only about a diameter of 30 meters expanding outward from her center. If the coverage of Spatial Teleportation could grow from 30 meters to more than ten kilometers, what level would Thousand Generations Orchid have to grow to?
Ge Bai sitting on the bus was still pondering Thousand Generations Orchid’s Spatial Teleportation Skill. It might not only expand with Spiritual Power Level growth; increasing Skill Proficiency should also have a positive effect.
While thinking, Ge Bai called Thousand Generations Orchid out from the Spiritual Consciousness Space.
“What’s up, Ge Bai?” Thousand Generations Orchid seemed to be sleeping and was a bit groggy after being suddenly called out.
“I was just thinking about your Spatial Teleportation Skill.” Ge Bai held Little Orchid, with the small wind blowing in from the car window; her hair strands and Little Orchid’s Leaves swayed together. “When you first discovered you had this Skill, could you already Flash this far, or does the Flash distance slowly increase?”
Thousand Generations Orchid carefully recalled. If Ge Bai hadn’t mentioned it, she really hadn’t noticed this issue.
Usually in the Secret Realm Space, everyone was very quiet, and she was always sleeping. Except when a few Spirit Beasts raised by the Sovereign occasionally frolicked and jumped near her, she rarely moved, let alone used Skills.
“It seems the Flash distance slowly increases.”
Thousand Generations Orchid remembered a detail: she liked sleeping next to a welcoming pine on the cliff wall the most; the air and temperature there were both to her liking.
The only drawback was that the cliff wall didn’t have enough moisture; the welcoming pine grandma could handle it, but she couldn’t.
So every once in a while, she needed to go to the stream to drink her fill before going back.
For such a long distance, she couldn’t expect the Orchid to toddle along on little legs; she mainly used the Spatial Teleportation Skill for traveling.
For the same distance, at the beginning she needed to use the Spatial Teleportation Skill fourteen or fifteen times; after more than half a year, using it eleven or twelve times got her there. Looking at it this way, the distance per Spatial Teleportation had increased.
Ge Bai understood and opened the Spirit Plant Cultivation Atlas. Thousand Generations Orchid’s Spatial Teleportation Skill Mastery was ridiculously low, only 9 points at the Beginner stage.
According to Thousand Generations Orchid, she had used the Spatial Teleportation Skill far more than 9 times over the years, which meant that this Advanced Skill Spatial Teleportation, unlike Big Willow’s Wind Blade, didn’t increase Skill Points by one per use.
Mastering Advanced Skills required much more time than Beginner or Intermediate Skills.
Ge Bai looked up at the station sign; there were still 3 stops to Blue Star Welfare Institute, about 3 kilometers.
She got off the bus with Thousand Generations Orchid.
“Thousand Generations, let’s play a game.”
“I’ll point the direction, you use Spatial Teleportation Skill on me to take me forward. Let’s see how many times it takes for us to get home, okay?”
Thousand Generations Orchid was going out of the Secret Realm Space for the first time and was extra curious about the surroundings; she didn’t mind Ge Bai’s proposal.
“Sure!”
Seeing how agreeable Thousand Generations Orchid was, Ge Bai also breathed a sigh of relief.
She had heard that many Beast Tamers and Spirit Planters racked their brains every day to coax their Pet Beasts into practicing Skills a bit more.
Wasn’t the second customer she met at Yun He Martial Arts School just like that?
Unlike Big Willow and Little Peach who liked standing on Ge Bai’s shoulders, Thousand Generations Orchid preferred lying on her head, with the Roots firmly wrapping around Ge Bai’s ponytail; the Flower Sword full of blossoms hung down in a natural arc. This fine Little Orchid, if not looked at closely, seemed like a realistic hair accessory.
At first, Ge Bai was a bit worried she wouldn’t stay steady and virtually held her for a while. Seeing her steady, she let her be.
Thousand Generations Orchid wasn’t heavy either; it shouldn’t cause hair loss from pulling, right? While Ge Bai was pondering this in her mind, she felt a bout of dizziness, and then she appeared about 25 meters away from the previous position.
Looking back at the distance, “Thousand Generations, doesn’t your Spatial Teleportation distance also depend somewhat on the volume and size of the teleported object?”
Thousand Generations Orchid shook the Flower Sword on Ge Bai’s head, “Yes, it’s harder taking you than myself, and even harder teleporting Big Willow.”
Ge Bai felt her scalp tighten. No, tomorrow she had to tie a low ponytail; otherwise, over time it would definitely cause traction alopecia.
While complaining in her heart, she didn’t forget the main task. She took out the Mobile Terminal, opened the Stopwatch interface, and downloaded a distance measurement app.
25.4 meters—this was the distance Thousand Generations Orchid had just Flashed her.
“Thousand Generations, try it. Don’t stop; after one Spatial Teleportation, immediately prepare the next one until you feel tired, then stop. I’ll record the data.”
“Mm, I can do that, but Ge Bai, aren’t you dizzy? Can you handle it?”
Thousand Generations Orchid was a bit worried. When she played with a rainy mushroom in the Secret Realm Space, the little mushroom told her it didn’t like being teleported because it got dizzy.
Ge Bai shook her head and said to Thousand Generations Orchid, “It’s fine. If I’m uncomfortable, I’ll tell you.”
Seeing Ge Bai insist, Thousand Generations Orchid began preparing; she was also curious about her own limits.
There will be an extra update chapter tonight.
