I’m Really Not Targeting the Mages

098 The Despicable Disciple (5,000 words, 2 in 1)

"Another wonder."

Roger was overjoyed.

The "Crescent Jade Pendant" should be the Pingsha Sect's strange item——

Each martial arts genre will have its own oddities.

Prosperous sects will even have multiple strange items.

In most cases.

Wonders do not conflict with each other.

This means that Roger can have the specialties attached to "Crown of the White Crow" and "Crescent Jade Pendant" at the same time.

At that moment, he decisively chose "Yes".

The crescent jade pendant emits a faint glow.

Warm air rushed into his body.

It made him feel comfortable and refreshed.

half an hour later.

...

"Today's Life Synchronization Completed"

"Progress: 1/14"

"You are one step closer to the owner of the Crescent Jade Pendant"

...

Compared with the "1 hour per day * 30 days" of the White Crow Crown, the Crescent Jade Pendant seems to be much easier to handle.

Roger guessed that this had something to do with his getting the true biography of Master Black Tiger.

...

for the next period of time.

Roger lived a reclusive life.

In addition to performing Qi and Life Synchronization at regular intervals.

He spent more energy on the production of pharmacy and strategic materials.

Others on the farm took it for granted.

After all, during his absence.

Alan successfully created the illusion that "Master Roger has been cleaning up on the farm and never left."

In this process, "Great Hidden in the City" also played a big role.

Many people clearly know Master Roger.

But when encountering specific things, he will involuntarily forget his existence.

certainly.

This is also thanks to the fact that the number of jonny turtles and water ghosts has dropped sharply after the year, and the growth of crops is no longer frequently infested by monsters.

During this time.

Roger once secretly went to the ghost forest.

The result made him a little sad.

The once bustling water ghost forest has become empty, only a large number of water thorns are left, growing more and more prosperous.

The water ghost brother is gone.

Jonny and the turtles only left him with a nest of eggshells.

There are eggshells.

It proves that those female turtles are still so persistent.

But where did the hatched little brothers go.

This problem once became Roger's heart disease.

He was unhappy about it for several days.

In a blink of an eye.

The time has come to the end of September.

...

In the dead of night in the attic.

Roger is doing his last Qi-attunement.

But I don't know why.

He was quite disturbed tonight.

I couldn't get up several times.

"This feeling...is not right."

Roger put down the Crescent Jade Pendant with a solemn expression.

No need for manual divination.

There is a reminder for the 3rd ring's qi-watching technique.

...

"Hint: You are aware of danger approaching, this is a very strong and precise intuition"

...

"Hint: The potential danger may be related to the Burial Ground or Gray Rock City"

...

"really."

Roger did not hesitate, and resolutely chose divination.

Now he has gradually known.

The luck consumed by divination is closely related to the intensity of the divination event.

The luck consumed by ordinary trivial matters can be replenished in a day or two.

There are many more big events.

But as long as Roger can get more benefits through the results of divination.

That is equivalent to investing in a wave of small luck in exchange for a wave of big luck.

That's actually a pretty good deal.

But still need to pay attention to that.

Investing in this kind of thing involves huge risks.

Therefore, Roger has always maintained restraint and caution in divination.

Only in a situation like today would he make a move without hesitation.

...

"Divination: Changes in Gray Rock City"

...

The epic picture suddenly opened before Roger's eyes.

He seemed to be transformed into a giant eagle, soaring above the gray sky.

Hawkeye looks down on the earth.

But on the endless reddish-brown land, one after another, dense white bones protruded from the ground.

Negative energy is poured out regardless of cost.

From the lowest-level skeleton soldiers and ghost guards, to higher-level corpse servants and bone warriors, to skeleton archers, gray knights, wanderers, ice ghosts...

On that high wall.

Roger saw a huge bone dragon.

Bone Dragon's eyes were full of ghostly fire, and he stared indifferently ahead.

Behind it is a dense army of bone dragons!

On the back of the bone dragon.

A person whose whole body was hidden in the giant armor raised the cross sword in his hand high.

Instantly!

The sky is full of haze and rolls away.

"Our time is running out."

"Only the dead can cross the border alive!"

His voice was indescribably lonely.

The voice fell.

Hundreds of skull dragons flapped their wings and glided from the city wall.

The screen suddenly closed.

last of the last.

Roger only saw a dark cloud hanging over Gray Rock City.

that cloud.

He looks familiar.

...

Gray Rock City is preparing to go south to start a war.

Roger was not surprised.

But the words of the bone dragon knight were deeply imprinted in his mind.

"Only the dead can cross the border alive."

He couldn't help but read silently for a while.

Thinking of the information about the Sera River that Alan gave him, he couldn't help but frown deeply.

After a while, he shook his head and said to himself:

"I don't believe that's the truth."

His eyes became firm again.

have to admit.

This divination had a great impact on Roger.

Let alone the words of the bone dragon knight.

The dark cloud over Gray Rock City was very similar to the one he saw when he was hunting down the Sheluo demon.

That depressing feeling.

You can't go wrong.

"The mountain is about to rain and the wind is filling the building..."

He couldn't help rubbing his temples.

On the data bar, rows of information light up.

...

"You sensed the coming of war"

"Do you want to activate campaign mode?"

...

"Campaign mode?"

Roger read the introduction carefully, and then chose to confirm without hesitation.

...

"Basic campaign mode is on"

"Please select a faction: Gray Rock City/Dawn Town"

"Current Faction: Dawn Town"

"Reminder: All the existences belonging to the hostile forces of Gray Rock City will become your enemies in the campaign mode. By killing these enemies, you will not only get double income, but also get a lot of honor points"

"Reminder: You can use honor points to exchange items in the primary battle store"

...

The undead army that is about to go south is destined to become everyone's enemy.

It is impossible for Roger to throw himself into the arms of the undead.

At first he thought the campaign mode was just an icing on the cake.

But when he opened the junior campaign store.

This idea was completely overthrown.

On the top shelf of the store.

A blue card slot is emitting a faint light.

...

"Professional Expansion Slot"

"Description: You can use it to include any profession except mage into your own profession module"

"Consumption: 100,000 honor points"

...

Read this.

Roger has already started to care about how many honor points a necromancer gives!

As for the double benefit.

He looked at the "malicious coupons" in the milestone system.

Can't help showing a little apologetic color.

...

next morning.

Roger came to the Lord's Mansion early.

But was told by Freya that Alan had gone to the "Autumn Forest" in the northwest of the manor overnight.

It is said that signs of an active undead army were found in the northwest.

The Paramount estate is flat.

There is nothing easy to defend and difficult to attack.

Once the undead army heading south from Gray Rock City successfully breaks through Alan's defense line in the Autumn Forest.

It is only a matter of time before sweeping the South Convenience.

...

"The current situation is actually very serious."

Freya spread out a tactical map and quickly explained:

"Even if the lord can keep the Autumn Wind Forest."

"The two wings of Knight's Avenue and Water Ghost Forest also have the possibility of encountering a rapid march breakthrough."

"We have a very mature intelligence network, so the possibility of encountering large-scale infiltration is low; but judging from the current defense force of the manor, even if we are facing small-scale infiltration, it is somewhat stretched..."

Roger listened carefully, nodding now and then.

"What's more troublesome is—"

Freya quickly pushed her hair back:

"I just got the news."

"The Flying Circus will arrive in Dawn Town tonight."

"In order to buy more time for the lord to deploy defenses, we can only let them in. So..."

Roger put his hands on the map and said calmly:

"I know what to do."

"Do not worry."

"Let them come and everything will be all right."

Freya looked up at Roger's firm eyes, and hummed slightly.

The expression that had been tense all this time finally relaxed a bit.

...

After returning to Senluo Farm.

Roger quickly divided the horned fiends into two groups.

A group of guards in the water ghost forest.

The other group went to the vicinity of Knights Avenue.

If traces of the undead army are found, they will report back as soon as possible.

With the strength of the Horned Demon, as long as you don't meet the Bone Dragon, it's not a big problem to come back alive.

As for Roger himself.

In order to solve the problem in time.

That afternoon, he quietly moved into the guest room of the Lord's Mansion.

...

at dusk.

A carriage decorated with lights slowly drove into the territory of Paramount Manor.

on both sides of the road.

Unknowing people are lining the streets to welcome them.

In an extended carriage.

Clowns in checkered clothes made faces at the children.

The children rushed over cheering, stopped the carriage and grabbed his ankles.

The clown dodges in embarrassment.

In the end, he still couldn't stand against the children's difficulties, and took out a large handful of orange candies from his pocket.

Some of the children left.

The rest of the children got the orange candy, but they still persisted.

The clown suddenly let out a strange cry.

Then it exploded with a bang, turning into pieces of colored bars!

Everyone was frightened.

But not for a while.

A funny and familiar face poked out from the carriage.

The man was holding countless orange candies with both hands, and his smile was particularly enthusiastic.

The people who were hesitant to wait and see before immediately cheered and followed.

Both sides of the carriage.

The flow of people is increasing.

They followed all the way to an open space outside Shuguang Town.

Circus crews began erecting tents, haunted houses, and other structures.

Those who had a little leisure showed their hands under the booing of the crowd, which caused the crowd to exclaim.

The most eye-catching one is a middle-aged strong man with bronze skin!

The stunt he performed was amazing, and it was called "Invulnerability"!

But I saw a tightly surrounded open space.

Under the horrified eyes of everyone, a companion raised a thin sword and stabbed straight at his naked chest!

Buzz.

Under the huge pressure, the blade of the rapier twisted into an extremely exaggerated half circle arc.

But the point of the sword that was on the man's chest was still unable to advance an inch!

"What a magic trick!"

"Awesome."

"Hey, is this person the same martial artist who came to challenge Master Roger last time? What's his name? Matthew, is it Mr. Matthew?"

The onlookers applauded enthusiastically and talked a lot.

They also want to see more projects.

But a staff member had already set up a bulletin board next to it.

And told everyone that today is just an audition performance, and the main event will be the night after tomorrow.

People yelled for a while.

After repeated persuasion by the staff, it slowly dispersed.

The middle-aged man with bronzed skin silently packed the props.

Suddenly.

He suddenly looked up and glanced at the crowd.

Unfortunately.

In the bustling crowd, he saw nothing.

...

"Mash (Human/Elite) Despicable Disciple LV34"

"Martial Arts: Golden Bell Cover..."

...

Roger, who was hiding in the dark, silently canceled the hope technique.

Matthew's perception is good.

There is not much information that Roger can obtain secretly.

However, the opponent's occupation still surprised Roger a little.

...

Despicable disciples.

This is a very rare sub-class of martial artist.

For most martial artists, a lowly disciple is the equivalent of a sworn enemy.

The characteristic of this profession is that it constantly jumps back and forth between "betrayal" and "apprenticeship".

When a despicable apprentice successfully joined a martial arts school.

All aspects of his attributes will be slightly improved.

And when he finished learning all the mysteries of this martial arts school, he would often choose to betray his family immediately.

During this process.

Despicable disciples will get a huge strength boost!

If the despicable disciple succeeds in "killing the teacher" when he betrays his family, then he will get a transformation similar to that of other professions when he advances!

This profession is as its name suggests, despicable as hell.

Its strength often depends on the number of times it has successfully rebelled, as well as the martial arts of the genre it has been in.

"It's not easy to find one or two schools of martial arts these days, isn't it?"

Roger thought to himself:

"This guy's strength shouldn't be too exaggerated."

"But there seems to be something about this golden bell jar."

Thinking room.

He went away with the flow of people.

...

that night.

Roger was in the guest room of the lord's mansion, continuing to practice the Qi and Life Synchronization that was interrupted last night.

This time it went very well.

...

"Life Synchronization Completed"

"You have become the owner of the Crescent Jade Pendant"

"You got a new specialization - take advantage of it"

...

Feel the cheerful flow of Qi in your body.

Roger almost couldn't hold back the impulse to scream.

Although the Crescent Jade Pendant simply comes with a specialty.

But its effect is very useful.

...

"Take the initiative (3rd ring specialty): In each encounter, your initiative +10"

...

This means that in a sudden encounter, Roger can always react faster than the opponent!

Cooperate with Upper Strike and Ten Years of Sword.

It is equivalent to being invincible from small to medium invincible.

besides.

This round of Qi and Fate Synchronization also brought new benefits to Roger.

...

"After being polished by the Crescent Jade Pendant, your familiarity with 'Qi' has become deeper."

"You have successfully mastered 'Qi'"

...

"Finally from comprehension level to mastery level!"

Roger was a little excited.

The improvement of the ability to control qi means that all martial arts and specialties related to qi will be slightly improved.

In this way.

His strength will improve a lot.

as expected.

There was a new reaction on the data bar immediately.

...

"Your qigong master's specialty: Grandmaster's glaring eyes has been improved. In addition to the deterrent effect, your sight will have substantial damage!"

...

Luo Jie couldn't help thinking, and used a lot of 'Qi' to arouse the Grandmaster's glaring eyes!

in an instant.

Two streaks of blue-gray light suddenly shot out from his eyes!

Like two searchlights.

The two beams of light were extremely strong, and when Roger shook his head, they also followed in the room.

At first Roger just thought it was funny.

But after a long time, he felt something was wrong.

The two searchlights swiped across the room.

It even broke a lot of furniture!

"Why can't it be closed?"

Roger was a little puzzled.

...

"Reminder: The effect of the Grandmaster's angry eyes is still improving. Since your control over Qi is still rough, it will take some time to stabilize."

"Remaining time: 23 hours and 56 minutes"

...

"this……"

Roger closed his eyes quickly.

so far so good.

The official performance of the Flying Circus is the night after tomorrow.

Timing should be fine.

So he hid in the guest room patiently, closing his eyes and trying his luck.

This time he was honest and did not dare to play tricks.

However, the next evening.

Freya hurried over and knocked on the door:

"Master Roger! I just got the news that Matthew went to Senluo Farm in the afternoon."
