Chapter 70 Establishing a Mental Barrier
Everyone was so excited that they lost all desire to go shopping.
They eagerly awaited the bonus payment.
Xie Tu slowly picked up the piece of paper on the table. "Come over here and settle your bets."
Of the five strings of numbers above, only Xie Tu wrote 300,000, which was closest to the total reward points for the task.
Duan Xi scoffed, "It's all small change! I don't even care about it."
Tao Haohao raised his wrist and transferred 100 yuan to the captain without saying a word. "That's right, with a prize of nearly 60,000 points, who would care about 100 yuan?"
Yun Zhao thought for a moment, then raised his hand and asked, "If I didn't write anything, does that mean I didn't participate or I abstained?"
"Abstain! We'll still award it!" everyone shouted in unison.
"oh."
Yun Zhao leaned over and asked Xie Tu for his bank card number.
Fine, I'll give it to him. One hundred points, consider it a reward.
Xie Tu glanced at the little bluebird on her shoulder, deliberately raised his wrist a little, and pretended to accidentally touch the little guy's feathers.
The little bluebird paused for a moment, then, as expected, started hopping around again.
[You jerk!]
Aside from its own body, it hates being touched by others.
Xie Tu raised an eyebrow at it, his expression full of provocation, the meaning in his eyes was very clear.
—Will you still swear at people like that next time?
Yun Zhao kept to himself, not wanting to get into trouble.
The little bluebird started the insults, so she was actually in the wrong.
But the little guy only knows four swear words, two of which he learned from her, and thinking about this made her a little angry.
The four team members were oblivious to the commotion, still caught up in their excitement.
Song Liang smiled wryly, "I still have to write a report. You need to tell me about what happened during the time we were working separately."
Xie Tu withdrew his gaze, stopped teasing the little bluebird, and said, "Everyone, stay and continue the meeting. Explain your experiences clearly so that Song Liang can submit his report."
"OK."
So the entire Zero team stayed in the meeting room for the meeting.
Recount each person's experience.
When the rabbit mentioned his brother again, his expression was calm, and he quickly explained what had happened to him.
Perhaps it was to liven up the atmosphere.
After the small meeting, everyone became lively again, coming out arm in arm to discuss the bonus and how to spend the points.
Yun Zhao stopped them, "Aren't we going to build a mental barrier?"
"Oh right, I almost forgot!"
A protective barrier formed by spiritual energy, capable of isolating the sentinel's five senses from the guide's spirit.
Avoid the mental burden caused by the overwhelming amount of information in daily life.
The team members were all A-level sentinels, and the process of establishing a barrier for them went smoothly.
When Tao Haohao opened his eyes, he felt as if the whole world had been veiled by a thin layer of gauze.
He subconsciously shook his head, only to find that his normally keen hearing now seemed to be far removed from his senses.
Subtle sounds that were once clearly audible are now blurred and indistinct.
"Damn, it's so strange to have some of my senses blocked..." The base's guides had also helped them build a mental barrier, but the sensory impairment was not nearly as severe.
The noise that had been clamoring in my mind disappeared, and I felt much more relaxed.
Similarly, the sensitivity of the five senses decreases.
The drawbacks are very obvious.
A mental barrier clearly cannot be established in a contaminated area.
"Ah, oh, oh..." Duan Xi opened his mouth and tried to speak.
But he found that his voice sounded strange, as if it were coming from another space.
Rabbit and Song Liang imitated Tao Haohao, shaking their heads from side to side.
It's a strange feeling.
The person felt more relaxed, but also uneasy. The S-rank guide's mental barrier was too domineering, and the five senses were severely impaired, as if... they might lose their powerful perception at any moment.
"Maybe it's just that you're not used to it yet; you'll get used to it after a while."
Song Liang sighed helplessly, trying his best to adapt to this suddenly unfamiliar world of the five senses.
Finally, it was Xie Tu's turn.
Xie Tu glanced at them, and roughly understood what was going on. "You guys go wait outside and get used to it."
"Oh well."
The four of them walked out of the meeting room, shaking their heads and swaying, while a chattering sound came from outside.
S-class Sentinels have overly acute senses, and most sounds are indistinguishable from noise to them.
Having been in this kind of auditory environment for a long time, Xie Tu had long been accustomed to using his own willpower to resist those burdens and mental harm.
He remained seated, looking up at Yun Zhao who was slowly approaching him.
I recalled the brief moment of peace that the last time the outer layer of air was channeled.
Xie Tu looked away calmly, trying his best to suppress his wildly beating heart, not wanting the other person to notice.
Yun Zhao stopped in front of him, gently raised her right hand, placed it on his forehead, her slender fingers slightly bent, forcing him to close his eyes.
Practice makes perfect.
Fluorescent light surrounded the two, attempting to penetrate his mental core.
Xie Tu frowned slightly, clearly still not quite used to this intrusive feeling.
Soon, the cyan-green fluorescent spiritual energy began to spread outward from Xie Tu, gradually forming a transparent barrier on the core of his spirit.
This barrier is as light as a thin mist, yet incredibly strong.
It gently enveloped Xie Tu, isolating him from the world around him.
The information flow that once confused him is now being systematically blocked outside the barrier.
After the barrier is established.
Xie Tu opened his eyes and tried to stand up, but almost lost his balance and had to hold onto the conference table with one hand.
This action, of course, immediately drew ridicule from the little bluebird.
Xie Tu was overwhelmed with emotion and had no time to deal with it. He closed his eyes slightly, trying to adjust to the blurry world.
For the first time, being shut out of those disturbing noises felt like becoming a normal person again...
It had been a very, very long time since he had experienced this feeling.
The guide... is the sentinel's destiny...
"alright."
Yun Zhao casually withdrew his hand, completely ignoring the emotions detected by his spiritual threads. "Captain, let's go shopping."
The four people outside were still chatting enthusiastically.
"Has the celebration already begun?"
"Probably. Ask Yun Zhao and Captain Yun; they came from outside."
One of them lived in the outer city, and the other lived outside the base.
The other team members all live in the inner city and are unaware of the situation outside.
The inner city was just like any other day. Apart from a few more decorations and banners, the streets were still deserted, with hardly anyone in sight, and there was no festive atmosphere at all.
Yun Zhao walked over and stood next to the rabbit. He was texting Bai Yu with his head down. Hearing this, he didn't even look up. "I came in by bus. It was still early then. The streets I passed through were the same as yesterday."
The area around East Third Street is mostly residential, and the main street where the event was held is closer to the outer ring.
She really didn't know where the event and celebration were at.
As for Xie Tu, he arrived even earlier than her, probably before dawn.
Don't S-class Sentinels need to sleep?
The group waited a few more minutes.
Xie Tucai emerged from the conference room, his complexion restored. "Let's go, let's go check out the celebration event."
