SSS-level skill - Universal Sympathy

With a single thought from Li Wei...

In his mind, that blind box shimmering with a noble platinum luster began to spin violently.

The light grew brighter and brighter, almost swallowing his entire consciousness.

Li Wei's heart leaped into his throat.

A gold blind box could already produce a heaven-defying medicine like the 'nine-flavor emperor pill.'

What kind of surprise would this unprecedented platinum blind box bring?

Finally, the light dissipated.

A grand and solemn system notification boomed in his mind!

【Ding! Congratulations to the host for opening a platinum blind box and obtaining the SSS-rank skill—Myriad Spirits Empathy!】

SSS-rank!

Li Wei's breathing instantly stopped.

【Skill Name: Myriad Spirits Empathy】

【Skill Effect: The host can establish a mental link with all non-human intelligent life forms within sensory range (including but not limited to animals, plants, insects, etc.) to conduct barrier-free communication, and can briefly borrow their senses (vision, hearing, smell, etc.).】

【Current Effect (Beginner):】

【1. Communication Range: One kilometer radius.】

【2. Sensory Borrowing: Can link to one target at a time for a duration of ten minutes, with a one-hour cooldown.】

【Remarks: All things have spirits, and all have speech. When you possess this skill, you shall become the only deity walking among mortals who can listen to the voice of the world.】

Boom!

Li Wei's mind went blank.

Communicating with animals and plants?

Borrowing their senses?

This... what kind of god-tier skill is this?!

If 'God-Level Medical Skills' gave him the ability to control life, and 'God-level Combat Technique' gave him martial power beyond ordinary mortals...

Then this 'Myriad Spirits Empathy' directly gave him a pair of... Eyes of God!

Almost instantly, he thought of the endless, even terrifying, uses for this skill.

Reconnaissance, tracking, eavesdropping, early warning... wherever there was life, it would become his eyes and ears!

If that elusive Lü Xiangdong, who had left the entire Shen City police force helpless, were to appear again...

Then before his 'Myriad Spirits Empathy,' there would be nowhere to hide!

It truly lived up to being an SSS-rank reward!

Li Wei suppressed the wild joy in his heart, eager to test the power of this heaven-defying skill.

He quickly went to the large floor-to-ceiling window.

In the early morning hours, Shen City was dead silent.

Only a few streetlights emitted a lonely glow in the night.

Li Wei took a deep breath and activated 'Myriad Spirits Empathy.'

In an instant.

Countless noisy, chaotic, yet life-filled 'voices' flooded into his mind like a tide!

“Hungry... so hungry... where are there bugs to eat...”

“Cold... so cold... this leaf is uncomfortable...”

“Mate! Mate! My hormones are burning!”

“That tree's roots are reaching into my territory again! Screw him!”

These voices came from the trees outside, the insects in the grass, and even the earthworms underground.

They were bizarre and multifaceted.

Li Wei felt as if he had opened the door to a whole new world.

Enduring the dizziness brought by this flood of information, he concentrated his mental energy on a Sparrow preening its feathers on the windowsill.

“Hello.”

Li Wei tentatively sent out a thought in his mind.

The Sparrow's preening motion suddenly froze.

It looked up, its tiny black-bean eyes filled with terror and confusion.

“Who? Who's talking?!”

A sharp and somewhat silly voice rang out in Li Wei's mind.

“Oh my god! It's a ghost! No, it's a bird-ghost!”

Li Wei almost laughed out loud.

It worked!

He could actually talk to a Sparrow!

“Don't be afraid, I'm not a ghost,”

Li Wei soothed, “I just want to be friends with you.”

“Friends?”

The Sparrow tilted its head, seemingly trying to understand the meaning of the word.

“Friends... does that mean we can find bugs to eat together?”

“...Pretty much.”

Li Wei suppressed his laughter.

“I'll treat you to a good meal, and you help me with something, how about it?”

“Food? There's good food?”

The Sparrow's attention was instantly diverted, its tone filled with longing.

“Is it better than earthworms?”

“Of course.”

Li Wei pushed a small piece of pizza crust that Yang Weiwei had left over onto the windowsill.

The Sparrow looked at it warily but ultimately couldn't resist the temptation of food, quickly taking a peck.

The next second, its eyes suddenly lit up.

“Heavens! What kind of divine food is this! It's so delicious! Better than all the bugs I've ever eaten combined!”

Looking at this completely unprincipled Sparrow, Li Wei felt reassured.

“Now that you're full, it's time to get to work.”

“I'm going to use your eyes for a bit.”

Li Wei's consciousness surged directly into the Sparrow's head.

Sensory Borrowing.

Buzz!

The scene before his eyes suddenly changed!

The entire world seemed to be instantly pulled higher, and his field of vision became incredibly vast.

He could clearly see himself standing by the window, with a trace of uncontrollable excitement on his face.

He 'saw' himself wave a hand.

The Sparrow on the windowsill simultaneously flapped its wings.

This feeling was wonderful to the extreme!

He was the Sparrow, and the Sparrow was him!

“Fly!”

Li Wei gave the command.

The Sparrow let out a cheerful chirp, spread its wings, and soared into the deep night sky!

The night wind whistled past his 'ears.'

The city below turned into a sea of brilliant lights.

This feeling of flying freely and looking down upon all living things intoxicated Li Wei.

Like a child who had just received a new toy, he excitedly directed the Sparrow to circle above the hospital.

Soon, he found a bit of 'fun' in a lit window of another building.

In a room that looked like a doctor's duty room...

A bald male doctor in a white coat was having an 'academic exchange' on an office desk with a curvaceous female Nurse.

The battle was intense.

“Tsk tsk.”

Li Wei let out a sigh in his heart.

He directed the Sparrow to silently land on the ledge of that window.

High-definition, uncensored, live broadcast.

Just at the male doctor's most critical moment...

The corner of Li Wei's mouth curled into a mischievous smile.

“Brother, here's a gift for you.”

Splat.

A warm, slightly sour lump of bird droppings fell precisely from the sky.

Unerringly, it landed right on the male doctor's shiny bald head.

The male doctor instantly froze.

He reached up to feel it.

Slimy and warm.

“Ah—!”

A mournful cry pierced the silent night.

Watching the chaos in the room, Li Wei contentedly directed the Sparrow to fly away.

Fading into the night, his good deed done.

After the fun, Li Wei began to get down to business.

“Find Qin Bing's ward.”
