Drawing Cards With My Lifespan: Starting By Gamifying Reality - Chapter 80
Chapter 80: Invitation Letter, Corpse Walker, Someone from the Chu Family (3)
” The number of people isn’t a problem,” Zhang Zhenyu said with a sigh.” With the Trascendent provided by the military, the missing candidates will be replaced very quickly. However, it will probably take some time for the team to get used to each other. In the four districts of Tianmu City, apart from us losing a lot of people in this mission, Deacon Ji Lan also lost a lot of people.”
When Su Mo heard this, he frowned.”
“If I remember correctly, deacon Ji is chasing after the traitor Zhang Lie, right? That Zhang Lie was only at level 4 and was not a combat profession. Was it so difficult to chase after him?”
Zhang Zhenyu sighed and said,
“It’s normal that he’s difficult to catch up. After all, many of the things that guy brought out are related to space. He can immediately escape if he finds something wrong. If he didn’t leave too many clues in Celestial Association, it would probably be difficult to catch him now.
And we also roughly understand the reason why he betrayed Celestial Association-he awakened the evil profession [Corpse Walker].”
“What?” Su Mo’s expression changed.
“You should know that there are not only the five complete profession for sorcerers. There are also many special occupations with incomplete paths.
Compared to us, even incomplete special profession can communicate with each other, discuss with each other, and study the direction and methods of advancement together.
As for those special evil profession that had suddenly awakened, most of them did not have a follow-up path and did not understand the advancement ritual at all. They could not find any companions at all.
The better ones, like the three great evil organization, might have mastered the promotion path of certain special profession.
Those who were slightly more unorthodox did not even have the three great evil cultivator organizations. If they continued to cultivate, they would only be waiting for death.
The [Zombie Walker] that Zhang Lie awakened was considered a special evil profession that was more common. There was a follow-up path in the Secret Covenant Travel Agency.
For the sake of his own safety, he chose to betray the government. This was probably his plan after awakening the evil profession.”
“There’s nothing we can do about it. After all, the government’s policy on evil cultivators is so strict. It’s normal for them to defect.”
Xue Qiaoqiao shrugged helplessly.
Zhang Zhenyu said sternly,
“Even if that’s the case, with the contributions he made to the government, he wouldn’t have been killed on the spot.
It wasn’t that there hadn’t been similar cases in the past, but as long as those people behaved themselves, most of them would live well.
There were even a few who sealed the progress of their evil profession and relied on their own profession to break through to become saint, gaining great fame.
These were all real cases. It was impossible for Zhang Lie not to know.
Even so, he still chose to rebel and kill others to create corpses to cultivate the progress of the [Corpse Walker].
Moreover, he had stolen so many valuable assets from the government.
If he didn’t die, who would?”
Su Mo tried to smooth things over and said,”
“If you ask me, awakening an evil profession can only be said to be bad luck. This world has never been fair. Some people buy lottery tickets and easily win the first prize, while others go bankrupt and win nothing.
If it was a Transcendent profession, those who were lucky, like me, would awaken the Sword Saint class on the spot. Those who were unlucky, like Zhang Lie, would awaken a special evil class.
However, this was only luck. The most important thing after that was still the individual’s choice.
For example, if you didn’t win the lottery, you could choose not to buy it later. There was no need to sell your car or house to buy the lottery.
The feeling that Zhang Lie gave me now was that he was completely staking everything on this, hoping to use the [Corpse Walker] to turn things around.
Although I didn’t know how much of a temptation the [Corpse Walker] had to him.
However, there was no doubt that this move would not end well.
If they were to go against the government, not to mention just a special evil profession, even complete professions like [Dark Sorcerer] and [Puppet Master] would be killed by many in history.”
“It doesn’t matter. Since he made his own choice, he has to pay the price for it.”
Zhang Zhenyu said coldly,
” The Patrollers who came to support us are already on their way. Although they were delayed for a while because of something that happened midway, they will arrive here soon. Even if Zhang Lie can run, can he escape from the hands of a Level 6 profession who specializes in hunting down Sorcerers? Now, all of this was just his last struggle.”
“Alright, let’s not talk about this anymore. After all, it’s not a mission for our team. Where’s Sister Qingwu?”
Su Mo looked around and asked in confusion.
“Qingwu went to the station to pick someone up.”
Xue Qiaoqiao chuckled and replied immediately.
“Who is she picking up?”
Su Mo was slightly surprised.
“Who else could it be? Of course, it’s the high-level profession of the Chu family!”
Xue Qiaoqiao’s lips curled up slightly, and she seemed to be gloating.
“That Puppet Master thought that he had played us for a fool and dealt a heavy blow to the official Transcendents. However, he did not know what would happen to him if his identity was exposed. Did he really think that the direct descendants of a Transcendent aristocratic family would be so easy to kill?
If he had been hiding until he broke through to the saint, it would have been fine. However, he dared to jump out at just level 4 or 5. He was simply an old man who was tired of living.
When the people of the Chu family come, I want to see where this rat can hide. I still remember the hatred from last time!”
Looking at Xue Qiaoqiao, who was secretly grinding her teeth, Su Mo felt as if he could already see the end of the Puppet Masters.
The pursuit of a high-level big shot was not something that ordinary people could deal with.
After chatting with the two of them for a while, Su Mo did not waste any more time and went to the underground training room to prepare to train his skills.
At the same time.
Huarong District.
In the suburbs.
In a nameless forest.
A thin middle-aged man was fleeing in panic.
Not far behind him, three armored undeads were fighting the Trascendent.
With an explosive sound, the three undeads were all sent flying.
The leader of the group was a woman with a curvy figure and a fiery red dress. She looked at the middle-aged man who had already fled far away and pointed at him.
“Flame Star Explosion!”
A spark shot out from her fingertip like a bolt of lightning, instantly passing through countless trees and landing on the ground.
Like a cannonball landing on the ground, a terrifying flame suddenly exploded and swept in all directions.
The dense forest was instantly burned down, and the air was filled with crackling sounds.
The woman quickly walked forward, and the flames gradually extinguished.
When he arrived at the landing point, he saw that there was only a deep pit with a diameter of five meters left on the ground.
There was nothing in the pit other than charred soil and gravel.
She frowned and took out a compass-like magic artifact.
As she watched the needle continuously turn and finally set north, she waved her hand and said,
“Continue chasing!”
The Trascendent who had dealt with the undeads behind him agreed in unison.
The group continued to chase in the north.
On a road near the forest in the south.
Song Qiyang looked at the forest in the distance where thick smoke was rising and smashed his fist fiercely on the steering wheel.
After venting, he picked up the phone beside him and pressed the call button. He said in a deep voice,
“Boss, that Zhang Lie isn’t sincere in cooperating with us.
Every time I went over to receive him, he would deliberately lead me to the pursuers.
He clearly wants me to go against the Dawn Society!”
“Then just kill them,”
Lu Chuan replied indifferently,
“Perhaps he is testing our sincerity.”
Song Qiyang said hesitantly,”
“But there is clearly a better method…”
“Don’t forget, everything, including the Evil Divine Token, is with him. The initiative is now in his hands.”
“I understand.”
“Go and do it. I’m almost done packing up. When I come back, I hope to see Zhang Lie in the teahouse.”
“It will definitely be as you wish!”
