Apocalypse: Hero of Potato Fields-Chapter 336 - 332 Unique Ability: Connection_2

[Skill Book: Connection]

A unique skill, only one copy exists.

After the user’s death, the skill book has a chance to reappear.

This skill allows you to establish connections between two or more people.

Those affected by the connection will receive attributes from those they are linked to, based on the level of connection.

At the First Level, the user gains a 25% bonus based on the target’s base attributes.

At the Second Level, the user gains a 50% bonus and establishes a telepathic connection.

At the Third Level, the user gains a 75% bonus and establishes a mental/physical connection.

At the Fourth Level, the user gains a 100% bonus and the ability to teleport to the linked target’s side.

At the Fifth Level, the user gains a 200% bonus and the ability to partially use the target’s skills.

Warning!

The more people connected, the more difficult it becomes to increase the connection level.

When establishing a new connection, the level will be reevaluated, and if the connection is not stable enough, the level will drop.

"This skill is interesting."

He paid for it, took the skill book, chatted with the merchant for a while, and then left the chapel.

He was very satisfied with this skill.

But does he really have to use this skill himself?

What if there’s a powerful couple in the Shelter with a strong connection? Or he could use this skill on those dragons.

At the very least, Da Chuan deeply loved Mira, and that dragon’s attributes...were enviable.

The park was quite far.

The farther Lin Yi got from the chapel, the fewer people were on the streets, and the worse the city looked...

Needless to say, a tall man with a large backpack would surely attract some attention.

However, no one dared to actually attack him.

Lin Yi calmly disappeared into the streets of Hanover.

Melanie told him about an uninhabited area where no one would see him.

So Lin Yi teleported back to the Shelter there.

He dropped his backpack, changed his clothes, and headed to Tilian; it was already late morning by then.

As usual, negotiations with Henry Oster were tough, but both sides greatly benefited from the trade.

The Shelter earned 570,000 coins, while the fortress’s survival chances increased several-fold.

The people of Auster got the materials urgently needed for repairing the mechas and city walls; most importantly, they finally obtained the equipment to restore prosthetics and artificial skin.

The fortress reached an agreement to supply two fortresses with chemicals and copper.

The Shelter purchased three thousand tons of copper and two thousand tons of other supplies.

This was the main reason for Lin Yi’s thin profits.

He had no interest in setting up a branch in Auster Fortress because soldiers there couldn’t even breathe.

However, he helped them acquire the equipment needed to build a radio tower.

Both fortresses were already constructing similar towers so they could contact each other when needed.

After finishing business at the fortresses, Lin Yi headed north.

His destination was the Lille Fortress, known for its major fuel supply in the post-apocalypse.

But he didn’t head there directly; instead, he traveled about sixty kilometers and then returned to the Shelter.

He ate something and collected a few shards before returning to Earth.

Melanie reported that the red-haired sisters had informed their boss about Lin Yi, earning them an extra share of food.

Soon after, a group of fierce-looking people went to the market chapel to find him.

Interestingly, those thugs didn’t try to extract any information from the merchant.

They only asked if someone matching Lin Yi’s description had been there and what he had purchased.

The merchant told them that he had been there and bought some vision-enhancing skills, but didn’t reveal the transaction they made in the basement.

Both sides seemed tense, so Melanie guessed they belonged to different factions.

Needless to say, those robbers had taken an interest in Lin Yi because he had spent ten thousand coins on twenty skill books.

At this point, Lin Yi arrived at the park’s market.

Like all outdoor markets, this one was large and noisy.

The security measures here were very tight, so there were almost no thieves.

But you had to show money or goods to enter.

As the girls said, this market sold basic consumer goods.

Lin Yi saw a lot of equipment made from parts of mutant animals. Most were First and Second Level.

But he noticed a pair of boots made from some rough leather that offered immunity to First Level Electric Magic.

These boots weren’t particularly useful, but just having such a possibility gave him many interesting ideas.

After wandering around the market for about an hour, Lin Yi spent twenty thousand coins buying thirty ordinary skill books and five rare skill books.

He also bought a large batch of vaccine bracelets, at least a large batch by local standards.

The Shelter already had over 4,000 vaccine bracelets, and he bought another sixty here.

Lin Yi didn’t find anything else interesting and wandered aimlessly around.

Eventually, he found a less crowded area.

During that time, those tracking him didn’t make any dangerous moves.

They were clearly waiting for him to move away from the crowd.

They didn’t want other factions to know about such a "big fish"!

"Stop right there!" a hoarse voice shouted from behind him.

Lin Yi turned around and saw a group of fifteen people, half of whom were wearing System Armor.

He didn’t waste time talking.

He just waved his hand, and forty soldiers equipped with laser rifles and Doomsday Knight Armor appeared out of nowhere.

Thirty seconds later, all the robbers were incapacitated, with several thugs having broken limbs.

These people would soon be interrogated, likely tortured, and then turned into biomass.

Lin Yi continued to wander around, taking in the scenery.

His goal was to determine if doing business with this camp was worthwhile.

Lille, Cologne, Dusseldorf, and their island allies all refused to shelter Hanover.

So he had to take it seriously too.

Hanover was a big city with a population between one hundred thousand and two hundred thousand; ensuring its security required a lot of resources and manpower.

Lin Yi had no intention of recruiting all these people. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Of course, he could farm more land, providing enough work for everyone, but then there was the issue of housing...and security...

Besides, the castle couldn’t accommodate that many people.

Currently, he leaned more towards collaborating with this MacLeod guy.

From what he could see, the city managed by MacLeod was quite orderly.

Even in Cologne, the traces of destruction were evident, but here, everyone was bustling around.

"Lin Yi...I’ve evolved," Siri said in his mind.

She sounded happy and a little embarrassed.

"I’ll be right there."

The boss found a quiet spot and teleported directly to Siri.

The Beetle Queen looked much the same, but Lin Yi could hear in her voice how satisfied she was with this evolution...
