Chapter 133. Self-motivating
Perhaps because she had slept for too long, she was full of energy. The more she screamed, the more energetic she became.
At first, Char felt comfortable listening to it, but later on, he could not stand the noise anymore, so he reached for his belt and tried to untie it.
"What are you doing?"
"Self-motivating"
"You pervert!"
The goddess cursed and then disappeared.
"This combat power is amazing."
Char shook his head and sighed. He jumped out of the coffin, took a piss, and lay back down comfortably.
Then, a face appeared at the edge of the coffin.
"I didn't expect that the first one to arrive among the three of them would be Einstein."
"You're so fast?"
Char scrambled to his feet, and only came to a realization after he saw it clearly.
This guy was probably rushing to get benefits, so he actually rented a horse.
This was a bit reckless. There were countless monsters and wild beasts in the wild, and horses were no different from moving food. Their meat was also chewy. If they were injured or killed, not only would the deposit be taken, but the players would also have to pay a sum of money. Normally, only large troops would dare to dispatch a large number of horses. Individuals rarely did so.
"You're quite lucky, kid. You didn't get attacked by any monsters or wild beasts along the way?" Char sighed.
"I got a pack of [Vanishing Powder] from a quest before," said Einstein, grinning. "Sprinkling it on a rented horse can erase the smell. Otherwise, who would ride a rented horse to a monster-farming area?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtChar understood. This person's luck seemed to be pretty good. He had actually met an old acquaintance of his, the Mage Joey from Astan City. He had brought Jojo along with him to the North, intending to cross the Northern Red Grassland to seek medical help in Aurania. This [Vanishing Powder] was most likely a quest related to the two of them.
"It doesn't feel good to die, right?" Char smiled.
"What's there to feel bad about? The moment i close my eyes, I'll be in the cemetery."
As expected...
The players were different from him. They did not have to go through the death corridor.
Char called out to Mitsuya in his mind, but the guy was probably still angry and ignored him.
"Don't worry, I'll compensate you for the experience you lost."
Char comforted him.
The two of them chatted for a while, and the cold-faced tailor soon arrived.
However, he was still alone, and there was no trace of Evelyn.
Jake handed him a compass, like brass box with an indicator needle and a small light bulb. The needle pointed to the West, and a red light flashed.
[Sensor]
[Prop]
[Retrieval module]
[The needle indicated the direction, with red, yellow, and green representing the distance.]
[Maximum sensing range: 10 kilometers.]
"The two of us met outside the forest," He said coldly, "and we were going to come together, but halfway there, we met a mushroom head who came to get help."
"Maica?" Char asked.
"Yes, that seems to be the name. The mushroom head deliberately avoided me when talking, but unfortunately, I know how to read lips," Jake said expressionlessly, "He's also injured. If I'm not wrong, it's caused by a monster. He's looking all over the world for you. It looks like the situation is urgent, so your woman followed him. The mushroom head gave me this and told me to pass it to you. He said you would know how to use it."
Char weighed the sensor in his hand.
This thing came in a set, divided into a search module and an indicator module. The indicator module should be on Maica now for easy tracking.
If everything went as expected, Maica was driving their cars and hiding in the forest. With their combat power, there was only one possibility for them to be beaten up by a demonized creature, the Demonized Graviny.
She was indeed near Golden Butterfly City.
Considering this possibility, Char immediately used all his remaining experience on the Shadow Servant and rose to level 35.
This was not to release Evelyn power. Their relationship was no longer bound by a contract. He would not be so stupid as to keep activating the cooperation contract.
However, as a Shadow Servant, after Char's level exceeded 30, he could get a chance to use [Chain of Pain] every five levels. He could transfer half of the damage she received to himself.
The Light Elf also had a corresponding skill called [Glory Sharing]. The effect was almost exactly the same, so Hilda often used it to share with Char the pain she felt during those few days of the month.
After leveling up, Char's gaze fell on Jake's face, which looked like it wanted to say something but was hesitating.
"Go ahead, I know you're going to ask questions."
The tailor's mouth twitched.
"She's a Dark Elf too, right?"
Char nodded.
Jake's eyes dimmed, probably thinking of Niya.
"Let me give you a piece of advice." Char could tell what he was thinking at a glance and patted his shoulder. "Don't go to the breeding base."
"Why?"
"It's not an ordinary organization. It's backed by the Holy Tree."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJake's gaze suddenly turned sharp. "So what if it's the Holy Tree?"
"You will die. And it was a worthless death. You have other uses for your life."
The tailor laughed disapprovingly, obviously not agreeing. Char interrupted him and continued, "When you left the City Lord's mansion, you must have met an Elven officer, right?"
Jake nodded.
"Orivande. I know him. He's the leader of the younger generation. Madam Saxson has mentioned him before."
"You two are so busy that you even bring up other men to liven things up?" Char asked, puzzled.
The tailor lifted his eyelids, and Char laughed awkwardly. "You might not know this, but he's also from the breeding base..."
"You know each other?"
"Of course. Otherwise, why would an elven officer stationed outside the city attack the City Lord's mansion with a group of God's Chosen Ones? He wasn't stupid. F*ck. That guy is still trying to catch me and get some information out of me, and at the same time, do me a favor. Don't worry, this matter will be solved sooner or later, but not now."
Jake looked at him deeply, as if he had taken in what he had just heard.
"Alright, I'll be staying in Grinland for a while. I hope to see you again soon."
"Hey, wait. Before that, do me a favor."
Char grabbed Einstein, who had been waiting for a long time.
"This guy is quite talented. Do you want to consider the legacy of the Skinner?"
As soon as Einstein heard the cool name "The Skinner," his eyes widened. As a cult film and crime film enthusiast, he immediately stood up straight and looked at Jake with eager eyes.
The tailor looked at him for a while, then nodded reluctantly. He reached out to Einstein and placed his hand on his forehead.
Einstein's eyes immediately lost focus, as if he had received a system notification of a class change.
Although it was only a change in class, and because it was too specialized in attack methods, it was less applicable than other thief classes. However, the advantages of the class change of Skinner still outweighed the disadvantages.
After all, as a hidden class, most of them had their own quest line. About the past secrets and ancient inheritance of the clan. Then, they would enter the unique trial line, and without trying their luck, they would be able to obtain a set of highly compatible class equipment.
The benefits were obvious, and it was more than enough to make up for the loss of a level.
Seeing that the two of them had connected, Char did not waste any more time and turned to leave after saying goodbye.
