The Healer More Powerful Than A Warrior

Chapter 401 - 401: Old Friends from the Past



At this moment standing outside the office door, Lin Ye heard the sound of conversation coming from inside.

One voice was undoubtedly Chen Daosheng’s, and the other was a female voice, probably a fairly young girl.

“Is it a girl?” Lin Ye was somewhat surprised, not expecting the array master Chen Daosheng found to be a young girl.

It’s not that female array masters are not capable, but judging by the voice, this array master was indeed very young.

Although Lin Ye’s requirements weren’t high, becoming a competent array master would require at least about ten years of practice; otherwise, one would probably only be able to hover at the threshold of entry.

Although the difficulty of the stabilizing array wasn’t high, any failure in its engraving would mean this helmet was essentially ruined.

The number of helmets Lin Ye had on hand was limited, and before finding a way to replicate them, each helmet was literally one less once damaged.

That’s why Lin Ye specifically requested an array master above the passing line to increase the success rate of engraving the array.

However, Lin Ye still trusted Chen Daosheng’s competency.

If Chen Daosheng could find this person, it must be someone who met the requirements he put forward; otherwise, given Chen Daosheng’s character, there’s no way he’d do something so unreliable.

Such young yet competent array masters are indeed rare.

“Knock, knock!”

Lin Ye knocked on the door.

“Come in!” Chen Daosheng’s voice came from inside.

Lin Ye pushed the door open and entered directly.

As the door opened, Lin Ye’s eyes quickly scanned the room. Now, inside the office, there were only two people: one was naturally Chen Daosheng, and the other was a petite girl sitting on the sofa, with big eyes looking at Lin Ye, a bit excited.

Lin Ye slightly frowned, feeling that the girl seemed somewhat familiar, but he couldn’t quite recall where or when he had met her.

Sitting at the desk, Chen Daosheng welcomed him with a curious question: “Why are you here? No one notified me outside?”

Although he hadn’t specifically said so, his office was located in the inner central hall, where outsiders weren’t allowed to enter freely.

Despite Lin Ye being no outsider in many senses, rules are rules, and it was impossible to skip notification just because of Lin Ye’s close relationship with Chen Daosheng.

“Oh, I learned a new skill and tried it out, so they didn’t notice I came in.” Lin Ye explained.

Chen Daosheng showed a strange expression. Coming in like this was heavily guarded, yet not even a trace was found…

“Alright then, don’t do that again next time!” Chen Daosheng said.

Lin Ye rubbed his nose, smirking awkwardly.

This behavior was just like a child who had made a mistake and was being scolded by an elder.

“By the way, let me introduce her, this is An Xinmeng. Do you remember?” Chen Daosheng turned sideways and raised his hand to introduce the girl on the sofa.

Upon hearing this, Lin Ye suddenly realized!

“So it’s you…” He couldn’t help but exclaim.

Back in Shan City, Lin Ye had once taken a girl to explore the Secret Realm.

Lin Ye had copied his Wide Area Spellcasting from that girl, and admittedly, that talent had helped him a lot.

Unexpectedly, the array master Chen Daosheng found for him was that very girl from back then!

Nearly four years had passed, and the girl had surprisingly transformed from Aura Master to Array Master, turning ‘waste’ into treasure.

“Hehe, surprised?”

An Xinmeng’s cheeks flushed slightly as she smiled at Lin Ye.

If it weren’t for Lin Ye back then, she might never have embarked on the path of an array master. It could be said that everything she had now was built upon that meeting with Lin Ye years ago.

“Alright then, come in and sit down to chat!” Chen Daosheng called out, inviting Lin Ye into the office.

Lin Ye nodded, quickly walking into the office, closing the door behind him.

During the ensuing conversation, Lin Ye managed to learn a bit about An Xinmeng’s experiences over the years.

Because she had followed Lin Ye into the Secret Realm once or twice before, she gained a lot of benefits and performed exceptionally well in her college entrance exam, easily getting into the Alliance’s academy.

As a student at a top university, An Xinmeng smoothly gained the opportunity to switch to a rare profession.

In her second year of university, she reached the Second Transformation level and successfully completed the transition to array master, achieving this for nearly two years now.

The key aspect was that she exhibited exceptional talent in arrays, mastering in one year what would take others three to four years to fully understand.

Now, she had already obtained the qualifications to operate a teleportation array, which was also a benchmark for determining whether an array master was competent.

“Boss! If it weren’t for you mentioning to try switching to an array master back then, I wouldn’t have known I had this kind of talent!”

An Xinmeng exclaimed to Lin Ye, her eyes shining with admiration.

In her eyes, Lin Ye was simply omnipotent!

Although they were peers, he could discern what kind of profession matched her talents at a glance; it was remarkable!

“Hehe… I just mentioned it casually at the time. It’s because you worked hard enough that you achieved such accomplishments today.” Lin Ye didn’t take all the credit for himself.

But clearly, An Xinmeng didn’t fully agree with Lin Ye’s statement.

In her view, if Lin Ye hadn’t taken her to the Secret Realm and suggested she consider becoming an array master, she might have spent her life stuck in the mud of a low-rank professional.

“By the way, what exactly do you need me to do?”

An Xinmeng asked again.

Although Chen Daosheng had already told her the requirements roughly, she still needed to communicate with Lin Ye to clarify.

“I have other tasks to attend to, so you two chat at your leisure!” Chen Daosheng wisely excused himself, leaving the space for Lin Ye and An Xinmeng alone.

Although Lin Ye hadn’t asked Chen Daosheng to avoid them, as it wasn’t something needing strict confidentiality, since Chen Daosheng left on his own, it didn’t matter either.

Lin Ye took a helmet out from the spatial bag, placed it on the table, and said, “I need work done on this helmet!”

An Xinmeng picked up the helmet, examining it inside and out, clicking her fingers against it a few times, her expression growing increasingly peculiar.

“Can I try using some tools?” An Xinmeng inquired.

“Go ahead!” Lin Ye replied. Although the quantity was limited, a small amount of loss was still acceptable.

Moreover, judging from An Xinmeng’s expression, it seemed that engraving the array on this helmet wasn’t as straightforward as Lin Ye initially thought.
