Wow! The item-dropping rate is really high!-Chapter 492: You fight, we follow

As the words ended, there was silence.

Dai Lian, in the back, was growing somewhat frantic.

Not demanding anything in return and just blindly supporting them for a week?

With effort comes reward, a standard that should apply everywhere.

After feeding them for a week, Dai Lian had no doubt that these people would still end up lying here, idly waiting for death.

Perhaps a few hot-blooded ones would stand up, but a minority could not sway the overall situation, and in the end, it would still be up to the few of them to fight.

Facing the heavily guarded city armory, relying on just the four of them was undoubtedly as difficult as ascending to the heavens.

"Yanzi..." Dai Lian carefully tugged at the corner of Gong Yan’s clothes from behind, attempting to remind her.

However, even without speaking, Gong Yan could easily sense the will of everyone present through the feedback from Spiritual Energy.

Doubt... confusion... fear... mixed with a terrified joy.

These people initially didn’t know what they and their companions were set to do, but now that they understood their goals, their inner emotions became visibly clear.

Compared to the absolute rule the city had over them for many years, it was undeniably hard for them to truly trust a group of people who suddenly descended from the sky to overthrow the city’s rule.

Perhaps they would accept food and medicine, perhaps they would act compliant and flatter them for the time being, and then turn around to report them in hopes of receiving rewards from the city’s higher-ups.

So it wasn’t enough!

Still not enough!

Their bodies were too weak, and their spirits too frail.

The body and spirit always influence each other, and oftentimes, a strong physique brings a firm will.

Today they could not be forced to make a decision, the harsh medicine had to be administered at the very end.

Now... now they needed something else.

They needed something... to inspiring enough to maintain a restrained trust in these people temporarily.

Belief stirred Spiritual Energy.

For the first time, Gong Yan felt the Spiritual Energy, which she had always seen as mere data, beginning to pulsate with real life within her mind.

At the same time, the panel began to display messages she had never seen before—

[Free Creation Mode: You are attempting to create a new ability by combining the skills and knowledge you have learned with your own needs. Based on your ability assessment, the current success rate is "very small." However, you can pay a certain price (battle/general experience) to assist you in this creation. (Cost: 200 experience points/attempt)]

Free creation?

The newly appeared mode made Gong Yan somewhat puzzled, able to create a completely new ability?

Is it the ability she currently needed?

Even now, she had no idea what ability was needed to make these people temporarily maintain a restrained level of trust in her and her companions.

But it didn’t matter.

Novel game contents were always interesting, and she was not one who only believed in the absolute power of strength, so why not use the experience she had saved up to explore these new contents?

Let’s try!

[You spent 200 battle experience for an attempt at creation, but the creation failed.]

[You spent 200 battle experience for an attempt at creation, but the creation failed.]

...

As experience was expended, countless inspirations fluttered in her mind.

The pulsating Spiritual Energy urgently needed a vessel to demonstrate its efficacy.

After numerous attempts, a brand-new ability emerged...

[You spent 200 general experience for an attempt at creation, and the creation succeeded!]

[Inspiring Banner (Spiritual Power Creation Blueprint): You can solidify your Spiritual Energy onto an object, and all individuals who are recognized by you and who can see the object within the coverage of this Spiritual Power Creation will receive a certain degree of mental inspiration as well as slight physical enhancement and regeneration abilities. All benefits are positively correlated to the level of Spiritual Energy when creating the object. Currently, you can create 1 of these Spiritual Power Creations. When creating the next, the previous creation automatically loses its Spiritual Energy effect. Properties of the creation: Permanent, can be destroyed.]

Gong Yan’s gaze swept across the room; the scene remained silent after her speech, as if everyone was waiting for her tangible action or the next statement.

"Whoosh!"

A steel rod used for securing supplies on the cart was suddenly pulled out, and Gong Yan also casually tore off her denim jacket, revealing a white belly shirt underneath.

She then tied the clothing around the steel rod with a hair tie, as the power of Spiritual Energy began to infuse into it.

[Spiritual Energy creation in progress, please remain focused on the target object.]

[...3]

[...2]

[...1]

"Whoosh!"

The steel rod was firmly planted into the not-so-hard earth; the denim fluttering like a flag without wind at the end of the rod.

A faint milky aura spread out like a tangible presence, quickly dissipating into the unseen.

[You have obtained a Spiritual Power Creation—Inspiring Banner*1.]

[Inspiring Banner: While the banner exists, all individuals within a 25-meter radius spherical space centered on the banner will be inspired by it, automatically gaining "Trait—Spiritual Inspiration," physique +0.5, and health regeneration +2/min.]

"..."

The field of Spiritual Energy was enough to cover every figure in the cave, as a faint, warm current flowed through the bodies of each person.

Unprecedented firm confidence dispelled the confusion in their hearts; even without knowing what lay ahead, they were miraculously willing to run toward the future.
