"Whew~"
Feeling the surging power within her, Yun You exhaled deeply.
At this mont, she could clearly sense the "bottleneck."
The power of the Death God Sequence not only enhances the soul but also greatly strengthens the body, yet this strengthening has its limits; only by continuously advancing the Sequence Class can one unlock the physical constraints.
And now, Yun You's physique had already reached the peak of Tier One.
It's not that she has no ways to enhance her strength; if she trains like an athlete or a soldier, her physique could still improve, but the rate of increase would be akin to that of a normal person, just tens or hundreds of pounds, and would no longer be as rapid as now.
"I still need to advance the Sequence Level."
Yun You slowly opened her eyes.
But just as Old Jin had previously said, she possessed three Sequences, and to advance her Class, she must simultaneously et the different demands of all three Classes.
She's definitely t the physique and close-range combat ability required by Mad Dog.
In terms of the agility and instinct for covert operations required by Heartless, Yun You's practice was approximately competent.
In other words, the only requirent she hadn't t was that of the "Lord Sequence," elevating her ntality to a new realm.
This matter likely can't be rushed, for while physical and skill enhancents can be achieved through training, the ethereal ntality requires so encounters to transform.
However, for now, Yun You wasn't anxious about advancing her Class.
After all, the Floating Island suppresses Death God powers, so regardless of how high the Class is, it will ultimately be restricted to Tier One.
For now, her strength was enough.
"Hey, kid over there!"
Yun You turned her head and beckoned to the still bewildered silver-haired youth.
"Co over."
Seeing this, the youth's breath paused, finally returning from shock, and without any hesitation, he jogged to Yun You's side, his movents filled with caution, afraid of mistakenly...
...being torn apart by the young girl.
"Why are you so serious?"
Yun You shrugged, her gaze scanning the silver-haired youth from top to bottom, eventually settling on his bandaged chest.
The subtle rise and fall made her pause slightly, only then realizing the person in front of her wasn't a youth but a young woman.
"You..."
Yun You squinted her eyes, remained silent for a while, and then slowly asked, "What is your na?"
"Tian En."
The silver-haired girl lowered her head, quietly replying, "Sky Tian, grievance En."
"Tian... En..."
It was indeed a rarely heard na, and it sounded like one that only those from the Eastern Hemisphere would choose.
However, Yun You always felt this girl didn't quite resemble soone from the Eastern Hemisphere.
Her silver hair and ash-gray eyes were truly unique; if not due to genetic modification acquired later, few people from the Eastern Hemisphere would naturally have such hair and eye color.
"How old are you this year? Where are you from? Why were you captured and brought to the Floating Island?"
Yun You tentatively asked a series of questions.
"1...19 years old."
Tian En gently replied, "I'm just a local from Nest City No. 3."
"As for the reason for coming here, it's because I was implicated by my family's affairs."
"My grandfather... was a political prisoner, so our entire family was incarcerated in different Floating Island prisons."
Hearing this, Yun You understood.
Previously, she had been wary of this girl.
Although Tian En appeared fragile, seemingly harmless, don't forget, this place was a Floating Island Fortress Prison.
How many good people actually end up in this prison? Saying these criminals are harmless to others is a bit comical.
But ahora it seed, Tian En's words held so truth to them.
The political beasts in Nest City weren't benevolent; they'd talk about kindness but seize any opportunity to crush their political enemies ruthlessly.
Not only the underage family mbers, but even newborn infants could be convicted of "cris against humanity" and sent to the Floating Island to await death.
Tian En said she was here for this reason, and it seed plausible.
"Alright, I roughly understand you now."
Yun You nodded, then lowered her voice, asking, "You haven't forgotten your recent promise, right? Information about a near-military-grade Prosthetic Body."
"If you dare deceive , you should know the consequences."
Saying this, the young girl picked up the chubby fish in her hand, patting it a few tis, showing a rather fierce look.
"Uh... Of course not!"
Tian En quickly shook her head, responding earnestly, "Don't worry! I keep my word! Until I lead you to that Prosthetic Body, my life is in your hands!"
"If you tell to go east, I won't go west; I know the rules..."
Seeing the girl so cooperative, Yun You felt quite satisfied.
"Then now, we are essentially partners. My na is Wu Ming; you can call as you wish..."
Yun You patted Tian En's shoulder and then put away the Red Scale Giant Blade, gesturing three fingers.
"Now, I want to ask you three things, just answer, don't ask any extra questions, understood?"
Tian En nodded repeatedly, her small head bobbing like pounding garlic.
"Feel free to ask!"
"Excellent."
Yun You grinned and casually said, "Then the first thing—have you ever heard of the [Star-Attracting Skill] or anything related to it?"
"Never heard of it."
Tian En gave an imdiate answer, with no fluctuation in her tone, suggesting she wasn't lying.
Yun You had been expecting this.
Old Jin had rely ntioned that the Floating Island might have information on Star-Attracting Skill; he hadn't said this skill was circulated throughout the prison.
If any random person could be asked about its location, that would be abnormal.
"It's okay not to know."
Yun You waved dismissively, showing generosity.
"Let's move on to the second thing. The near-military-grade Prosthetic Body you ntioned, where is it? Is it claid or unclaid?"
Upon hearing this, Tian En paused slightly, then revealed a rarely seen smile.
"The situation of that Prosthetic Body is sowhat complex; you can consider it as being 'in the process of being crafted.'"
"What I need to do is take you to et the blacksmith, he's my friend, and since I've had a hand in the crafting process, I can decide the Prosthetic Body's ownership."
The girl spoke candidly, with no intention to deceive.
Even though "crafting a near-military-grade Prosthetic Body within the prison" sounded absurd, upon reflection, it wasn't entirely impossible.
The Floating Island lacked large-scale machines and precision processing instrunts, but sotis, the hands of so old blacksmiths—especially those of Apprentice Death God Blacksmith—could be no worse than machines.
The intention to craft a Prosthetic Body wasn't strange at all.
"Alright, then the last thing."
Yun You paused slightly, then lowered her voice, asking gloomily, "Have you heard of [Vivian Hugo]?"
