You Might Die If I Cast My Healing Spell

“F*ck!”

“You scared me!”

“When did you come back?”

!!

“Just now.” Lin Ye sat down on Shangguan Yan’s bed.

Shangguan Yan decisively turned off the game console in his hand that was playing the All-Star Battle.

“How was the dungeon battle?”

“I got a rather useless God-slayer-grade weapon that can’t completely replace my Hidden Moon,” Lin Ye said, “It can only be my ‘warehouse manager’… However, I’ve figured out one very important thing.”

Shangguan Yan was confused, “What?”

Lin Ye raised his right hand and got into a casting position. He silently chanted an incantation and then released a basic healing spell.

“Qi,”

“It’s an imitation skill.”

“Not only can I imitate the effects of physical skills, but I can also imitate the effects of magic skills.”

“That healing spell just now… Is an imitation?” Shangguan Yan asked, bewildered.

“Yes.” Lin Ye nodded.

“I’ve already forgotten the original healing skill.”

“This healing spell can only be an imitation. It’s not a skill that I cast.”

“So it needs to be combined with a specific hand gesture and incantation…” Shangguan Yan said thoughtfully.

“Correct,” Lin Ye said.

“When I was experimenting, I only used the system’s simplified casting method. However, if you look back at your Class’s inherited memories, you will find that the most primitive casting method is completely different from a skill’s casting method. It is much more complicated.”

“This is where the problem lies.”

“So, my point is that as long as you have the right to use ‘air’, you can simulate the effect of magic by using the most primitive casting methods.”

“These kinds of primitive skills have higher authority than normal skills.”

“It’s even higher than the Godkiller skill.”

“The f*ck!?” Shangguan Yan was dumbfounded.

“So you’re saying that not only can you control people with your hooks, you can also control people with magic?”

“And other people’s dispel is of no use.”

“All your opponent can do is stand still obediently?”

“Not quite,” Lin Ye said, “There are still some troublesome restrictions.”

“First of all, the imitation skill requires the most primitive casting method. Physical skills have never changed, so I don’t need to explain. I just need to do some research and I can basically imitate them.”

“As for magic-type skills, if you want to know their ‘primitive’ casting method, you have to have a specific magic Class and learn the specific skill. Only then can you dig out the most primitive casting method from the Class’ inherited memory.”

“If it’s a skill that hasn’t been learned, it can’t be imitated.”

“Second, imitation skills don’t consume mana, but it consumes stamina. The stronger the skill is, the more effective it is, and the more stamina it consumes.”

“This makes it impossible for us to control people from head to toe with our overpowered imitation skill.”

“Finally, the system won’t be able to help you lock onto the long-ranged magic skills that you can imitate. You have to rely on your own awareness and skills to hit the enemy you want to hit, just like how you shoot a ball into the basket, a hit or miss.”

“This process requires a lot of concentration.”

“It’s also very easy to make mistakes.”

“And enemies with faster speed can avoid it.”

“So, in a real battle…”

“Instead of consuming a lot of physical strength and bitterly using imitation skills to attack the enemy, it’s better to directly throw out mana-consuming system skills. It’s convenient, high damage, and also less worry.”

After a pause, Lin Ye continued, “However, small skills like charge, uppercut, sand splash, and healing can be used as you wish.”

“They don’t consume any physical energy.”

“It can be used to restrict the enemy’s movements at a critical moment and create a control effect that can not be dispelled. It’s very practical.”

“Do you want to try?”

“Brother.” Shangguan Yan’s expressions remain confused.

“Are you finally going to use me as an experiment?”

“Don’t worry,” Lin Ye said, “I’ll only use imitation and healing skills. I won’t use those attack skills to hit you.”

“Trust me,”

“It doesn’t hurt at all,”

“I don’t believe you!” Shangguan Yan said unhappily. “You’re a bad old man!”

“Who asked you to be my Captain… Come on, do you want to fight in this room?”

“My thoughts?”

“Isn’t this space too small?”

“I can’t use my best spiritual fist technique. You’ll smash me, you dog head!”

...

“Has Mumu’s ‘Hook Summoning Potion’ been tested?” Lin Ye suddenly asked,

“Does she have as much authority as the inheritance dungeon?”

“Uh… We’ve tried it” Shangguan Yan subconsciously recalled, “But just like the Holy Kara, we can’t enter without an entry pass.”

“As expected,” Lin Ye said, unsurprised, “I knew it.”

“Not limiting the number of people allowed in has nothing to do with having an admission pass.”

He turned his head and looked at the window in the room.

“Let’s go back to Tianqi University for a fight.”

“Back to school?” Shangguan Yan’s face was carefully blank..

“Don’t you plan on participating in the University Tournament?”

“We’ll ask little Mumu to use Summoning Ritual to pull us back,” Lin Ye explained, “When we’re done, let Mumu and the others hold another Summoning Ritual to pull her back. Won’t that do?”

“What the f*ck?” Shangguan Yan’s eyes widened. “That works?”

...

“Wait, I feel like I’m really old. I didn’t even think of such a simple method…”

Lin Ye rolled his eyes.

“You just found out?”

“You were a genius in high school.”

“But now, you’re like an idiot.”

Shangguan Yan was at a loss for words.

…

Soon, with little Mumu’s help, the two men left the military train without anyone knowing and returned to Tianqi University thousands of miles away.

They covered their faces with caps and masks and hoodies, passed through the busy students and teachers, and came to the fighting arena where the students could fight freely.

There were also special items set up here, just like the University Tournament’s “gladiator arena”, they could lock every creature’s HP bar while they were inside. Even if they went all out, they did not have to worry about accidentally killing someone.

Shangguan Yan stood in the ring and stretched his muscles a little. He then asked, “Should I equip a weapon?”

“Do as you please. I’m not using mine,” Lin Ye said.

Shangguan Yan gave him a thumbs up.

“You’re awesome.”

“Then I don’t need it either.”

“Let’s start.”

After they finished speaking, Shangguan Yan’s legs suddenly exerted force. He was like a tank moving at full speed as he aimed an upper hook at Lin Ye’s chin.

Lin Ye dodged it easily with a side turn and then used dragon-move capture to grab Shangguan Yan’s right hand before he landed. He then used an over-shoulder throw and threw him onto the ground behind him.

Shangguan Yan subconsciously used his martial arts skill “Escape” in order to avoid the negative state of being forced to the ground.

However, he found that it had no effect.

He could only follow the momentum of Lin Ye’s right hand, which he had grabbed and thrown behind him. Like a bent banana, he fell to the cold floor with a loud smack and was thrown in all directions.

His health bar even dropped a little.

“F*ck!”

“Is this the imitation skill you mentioned?”

“My God, what the hell is this? Isn’t this too shameless?”

“Don’t use your skills against my moves,” Lin Ye reminded him.

“Use the martial arts techniques you’ve learned in the past and try your best to get rid of my control.”

Shangguan Yan quickly got up from the ground.

“Alright,” he said.

“Let’s try again.”

As he spoke, Shangguan Yan attacked again. This time, he didn’t punch. Instead, he lifted his right leg and kicked Lin Ye’s face.

Lin Ye did the same thing again. He grabbed Shangguan Yan’s right leg and was about to throw him again.

However, Shangguan Yan was prepared this time. He put strength into his left foot and jumped into the air. He did a 360-degree spin in the air and used the spinning force to get her right foot out of Lin Ye’s control. At the same time, he kicked Lin Ye in the chest with his left foot, forcing him to retreat.

“Oh?”

“It really works?”

“Haha, Lin Ye, I’m sorry. The tides have changed!”

“Watch me break the wall with my martial arts!”
