Chapter 192 – Recruitment (3)

Lynen was willing to compromise and answer, more or less because he had been holding it in for too long.. At the same time, it was on account that Zhou Jing was his savior and that he could not feel any hostility from the other party.

After hearing his explanation, Zhou Jing rubbed his temples.

He had thought that this was a sorcerer with a legacy, but he didn’t expect him to be self-taught. It seemed like he wouldn’t be able to learn about the other sorcerers in the world through Lynen.

“Now that I know your ability, what do you plan to do?” Zhou Jing crossed his arms and asked.

“I don’t know.” Lynen looked torn, “What do you want me to do?”

He could not silence Zhou Jing, nor could he defeat him. He did not even think in this direction.

He only prayed that Zhou Jing would not have any ill intentions. Even if he was in good condition, there was an 80% chance that he would not be able to defeat this person, let alone now that he was exhausted.

Zhou Jing sized him up carefully for a while before suddenly smiling and throwing the sorcery book back into the former’s arms.

“There’s no need to be nervous. I’m only asking you these things because I’m curious. I’ve never seen such power before and don’t intend to do anything to you.”

Lynen quickly grabbed the book and heaved a sigh of relief. He looked at Zhou Jing in surprise. “Aren’t you going to take my book?”

“There’s no need.”

Zhou Jing shook his head. He had already read through it once and could read it from the experience log at any time.

He paused and looked at Lynen’s surprised expression.

......

“You have extraordinary talent. Do you want to accept my recruitment? I’ll pay you for your labor, but on the condition that I also want to study the knowledge of this book.”

“This..” Lynen was stunned and hesitated.

The corners of Zhou Jing’s mouth curled up as he said, “The book says that the nature spirits will only appear in some deserted places. It’s generally very dangerous. With my protection, you don’t have to worry about the threat in the wilderness and can boldly search for the spirits. I already know your secret. If you try and find someone else to cooperate with, more people will know. I don’t have any ill intentions towards you, but others might not. Working with me is the best and safest choice.”

Hearing this, Lynen got tempted.

In the past two years of isolation, his sorcery had barely improved. He had only fused with one nature spirit so far because he did not dare to go deep into the wilderness to find a new nature spirit.

His tricks could not deal with the mutant beasts that were too strong. Luck might favor him once, but he would not always be so lucky.

Moreover, this powerful hunter was right. He was already considered an insider. The damage was done. Instead of continuing to hide it, it was good to cooperate.

“Can you let me think about it?” Lynen, however, could not make a decision on the spur of the moment.

“Of course, you can think about it slowly, before I leave Deep Rock City.”

Zhou Jing was very easy to talk to.

Recruiting Lynen was the result of his consideration. Compared to just taking away a book, it was naturally more beneficial to bring along a person who had successfully cultivated sorcery. A living example was better than a dead book.

However, he did not force it. If Lynen was really unwilling, then the matter would end there. At most, he would study the so-called sorcery on his own. The book had already written the method of stepping past the threshold of sorcery very clearly.

Only by searching for the nature spirit could one activate the power of witchcraft. Such spirits were quite rare, and one had to use a special method recorded in books to discover them. Finding this thing required luck.

His Astral Apostles typically experienced a lot of costs doing trial and error. If Lynen could succeed in this superpower system, the apostles naturally had a higher chance.

However, Zhou Jing felt that there was a high chance that Lynen would agree. Not only was it because he was his benefactor, but also because this person’s performance just now revealed a mentality between a supernatural and a commoner. He did not have a strong and stubborn personality.

As long as he could gain their trust, have no ill intentions, and bring the other party what they needed, the other party would not mind sharing and cooperating.

Zhou Jing stood up and left the house. As he walked out, he raised his hand to block the sun and smiled.

“The sorcery system.. I wonder what it will be like when used.”
