Astral Apostle

Chapter 191 - Recruitment (2)

Chapter 191: Recruitment (2)

[Received 1,000 Astral Points!]

After defeating Dorton and his group of subordinates, he triggered two achievements and made a small wave of profit.

Because Zhou Jing had yet to execute Dorton and planned to bring him back to the capital to increase his reputation, the first kill of a third enhancement Mutant Blood Warrior had yet to be triggered. However, he was determined to obtain it. He was not joking when he said he would apply to execute him personally.

In addition to his achievements, he also triggered a special hint this time.

[You have received a Life Episode — Riot in Deep Rock City!]

[Rating: City Tier]

[+1 Current Legendary Point Count]

“What is this?” This was the first time Zhou Jing had triggered it. He took a look at the explanation.

[When involved in certain special events and making an impact, there is a chance to trigger a Life Episode, which will be related to one’s legends. The higher the spread of this event and its influence, the more Legendary Points will be awarded proportionally.]

This was equivalent to the “famous deeds” and “great achievements” an apostle could leave behind in the current world. It could bring about fame and prestige.

He could increase his Legendary Points if his Life Episodes were propagated. However, the upper limit depended on the nature of the matter — the publicity had to be practical, and there had to be a limit to bragging.

That’s strange. My assassination of the lord was quite sensational. It gave me a lot of Legendary Points, but I didn’t trigger this thing. I wonder what sort of criteria they judge by.”

Zhou Jing touched his chin. He had no clue, so he did not dwell on it.

In any case, it was a good thing to be able to increase his Legendary Points. This thing could increase the benefits each time he did his point settlement.

Closing the interface, Zhou Jing touched the Sorcery book that he kept close to his body, his eyes flickering.

“It’s time to have a chat with that sorcerer.”

...

Lynen slowly opened his eyes and saw an unfamiliar roof. He was lying on a wooden bed at the moment.

Excessive use of Sorcery had given him a splitting headache as if someone was stirring his brain. He groaned and could not help but cover his forehead.

At this moment, a man’s voice sounded from the side.

“You’re awake?”

Lynen turned and saw a strong, burly man sitting by the bed. He looked vaguely familiar.

Pieces of memory surged up in his blurry head, piecing together the experience he had before he fainted.

Lynen suddenly remembered that before he fainted, he was being chased by a bandit. When he was at the end of the road, a fierce person suddenly descended from the sky and tore the bandit into two. It was this person in front of him!

“You saved me?”

“Yes, I’m Imperial Hunter Jace.” Zhou Jing nodded.

“Er, thank you, Jace.”

Lynen’s tone was sincere, but his expression was unnatural, his eyes not looking at him.

He was glad that he had been saved. He was grateful, but he was also worried that others had seen him using sorcery to stop the bandits, exposing his uniqueness. He could not help but feel uneasy and prayed that no one had witnessed anything.

Unfortunately, things did not develop in the direction of his prayers. Zhou Jing sized him up with interest as he spoke,

“I saw that you can control the earth and rocks. This isn’t an ability related to Mutant Blood Enhancement, right? Aren’t you going to explain?”

In the end, he was still discovered.. Lynn felt helpless and didn’t know how to refute it. He just remained silent.

Seeing this, Zhou Jing took out the Sorcery book from his pocket, “I’ve read this book. The ability you used is called sorcery, right?”

historical

Shocked, Lynen quickly patted his chest. Finding it empty, he anxiously reached out for the book.

“Give me back the book!”

Zhou Jing easily pushed his hand away as he shook his head, “Answer my question first. Where did you get this book?”

With Lynen’s small arms and legs, he couldn’t win against Zhou Jing at all. After several fruitless attempts, he could only give up and say helplessly, “I dug this out.”

Zhou Jing waved the book, “Tell me in detail.”

Lynen’s lips quivered. After hesitating for a while, he finally understood the situation and compromised. He did not dare to act rashly in front of the Imperial Hunter and spilled his background.

A few years ago, he was still an accountant of a merchant caravan and followed them around. One day, he was attacked by a mutated beast in the wilderness, and the team fled in all directions. While escaping, he fell into a hole in the ground and was lucky to avoid the mutated beast.

When he fell into the hole, he was poked by something on his back. He found that half of a hard black object was buried in the ground, so he dug it out with his hands and pulled out an ancient box. Inside was a book, which was the remnant book that recorded the Sorcery knowledge.

After he was lucky enough to escape, Lynen began to study the contents of the book and realized that he seemed to be able to practice the knowledge of sorcery recorded in it. According to the contents of the book, he traveled around in search of a natural spirit that could enlighten him with the power of sorcery. After being chased by another mutant beast, he accidentally discovered a natural spirit and fused it into his body with difficulty. Only then did he obtain the power of sorcery for the earth element.

After that, he lived in seclusion in the nearby Deep Rock City. He did not dare to expose his abilities and focused on studying the contents of the book until today.

“..So you had the power of sorcery and did nothing but stay at home?”

Zhou Jing raised his eyebrows.

“I don’t dare use it. If someone finds out, someone will definitely snatch my book.”

Lynen stammered. As he spoke, he couldn’t help but glance at Zhou Jing. His expression seemed to be saying that he really had foresight.

Having possessed extraordinary power, he also wanted to show off and start a new life. However, his concerns prevented him from taking this step, so he locked himself in the house and tried his best to study the sorcery knowledge, suppressing the urge in his heart.

Although he was panicking now that he had been exposed, he felt inexplicably relaxed. It was as if his ability that he wanted others to know but had no choice but to hide was finally forced to be known by others, so he no longer had to hide.
