Infernal Artist

Chapter 128 Taking office

"I have a problem." A girl raised her hand.

"Say it," the old man said.

"If we already have a career as a card artist while we are alive, what should we do now?" the girl asked.

Liu Ping found that many people showed expressions of concern.

——I’m afraid it’s not just the girl who has this question and worry.

The old man smiled and said: "Don't worry about this. In the empire, the profession of all card masters has been integrated into the cards. This is to improve the combat effectiveness of all people——"

"To the empire, you are just a card; but to yourself, you can think of yourself as a card master."

He opened the heavy book in front of him vigorously.

He pulled out the cards one by one and posted them on the blackboard behind him.

"Okay, little guys, come and choose your initial profession. The first class will officially begin soon." The old man said.

The teenagers looked towards the blackboard.

"What is this?" A boy complained loudly.

"It's too vulgar." His deskmate also said.

"Such a simple profession?" A girl couldn't help but asked.

Liu Ping looked at the blackboard and saw that the cards were all light gray, with various weapons and corresponding simple clothing painted on them.

When he looked at the cards, rows of burning small characters suddenly jumped out, marking the top of the cards:

"For beginners with firearms."

"Psychic apprentice."

"Apprentice Knight."

"Psychic practitioner."

"Junior Archer."

"Beginner warrior."

"Assassination practitioner."

"..."

"Note: These are the most basic professions, at the bottom of all professions, but they are also the starting point for many advanced professions."

Liu Ping nodded slightly.

Even the clown card I drew originally, although it was extremely unpopular, was much better than these professions.

No wonder everyone is a little dissatisfied.

"Quiet!"

The old man waved his hand and said loudly: "Everyone, when you were alive, you all thought highly of yourself, but have you ever thought about a question -"

"You are dead and have lost all power."

The teenagers were still a little unconvinced, but their voices were much softer.

The old man said: "Everything has to start from scratch. As long as you have the strength, it will be a matter of time before you upgrade your current profession to a higher profession or change professions. Do you understand?"

"I understand." Everyone responded sparsely.

"The first class is a trial with an elimination system. Now come up and choose the initial profession according to your own abilities." The old man said.

"Trial?" someone shouted.

"Yes, you are not novices anymore, so you will go directly to some newly recovered lost lands. There are too many souls sacrificed there and they have been polluted. Fortunately, they have been almost cleared. You go and clean up the relevant work." The old man said.

Everyone was quiet now.

Everyone finally realized that the current environment was not a safe place.

Their eyes turned to the blackboard again.

Profession!

——In purgatory, career is power!

The teenagers stepped forward one by one and began to choose their favorite careers.

Liu Ping also looked around carefully, feeling a little confused.

In terms of cards, I actually know too little, and I am no match for these local teenagers.

Which career should I choose?

His eyes passed over the cards one after another, and suddenly stopped on one.

There was a simple armor and a shield painted on that card.

When his gaze stopped, small burning characters immediately appeared in the void, explaining the card:

"Apprentice Knight."

"Wear all armor and use all cold weapons and shields."

"Evaluation: This is a generalist on the battlefield, but knowing everything means that it is difficult to master anything. Without extremely high talent, people who engage in this profession will often become mediocre."

Liu Ping glanced at it and asked silently: "What if the talent is barely passable?"

Another line of burning small characters appeared:

"This is one of the professions with the most development branches, and you can advance or change professions in countless directions."

"What's your choice?"

Liu Ping mused: "I once fought against the Blood Knight, and it was actually because of that strange card that I won easily; now that I think about it, it's still very impressive, and -"

"Yana was once a paladin. If she wakes up, she should be able to give me more advice on the knight profession."

"In addition, there will be a trial. If you have a set of armor, the chance of survival will be much higher."

Having made up his mind, he stood up, walked onto the podium, and took off the trainee knight's card.

At this time, the classroom was in chaos.

The teenagers have all received their initial career cards.

A girl threw the card out, and with a "bang" sound, the card turned into a bow and arrows, and a tube of arrows.

The girl held the bow and looked at it, complaining: "This is a hunting bow for hunting hares, how can I use it?"

A boy threw the card out and got an extremely crude rifle.

He picked up the gun and fiddled with it skillfully, with a look of disbelief on his face, and lost his voice:

"Only one bullet at a time?"

Another boy held a leather glove in his hand and said coldly: "You are satisfied, at least you have a weapon. As a trainee martial artist, I only have one glove - note, it is a glove, not a glove."

Liu Ping also threw out the "Apprentice Knight" card in his hand.

Bang!

A small wooden shield fell into his hand.

Immediately afterwards, another wooden stick also fell down and landed on his other hand.

Liu Ping looked at it and asked uncertainly: "Is this just an ordinary stick?"

The old man smiled and said: "Yes, knights can use all cold weapons, which is suitable for you."

Liu Ping raised his wooden shield again——

It is too small and can only cover an area as large as three spread palms.

Lines of burning small characters appeared quickly:

"You were given a weapon: a low-quality stick."

"—it's very shoddy, you know what I mean."

"You have obtained armor: a low-quality wooden shield."

"Although it is nothing in the shield, it is surprisingly strong."

"Attention, as a new lowest gray card, you are taking office and triggered the mysterious power in the eternal night."

"You will sense several initial professional skills of the apprentice knight, please choose carefully."

Liu Ping stood still, a flash of enlightenment suddenly flashed in his heart.

A certain kind of power is surging around him, always ready to form a power of his own.

It can have a total of four abilities, and you have to choose one from them.

One: halo;

Second: Weapon mastery (you can learn the primary attack skills of a certain weapon);

Third: The way of shield defense;

Fourth: Healing spells;

Liu Ping didn't care about weapons and shields. After all, he had so many years of fighting experience and skills.

——But I have never seen something like a halo before.

Do you want to choose halo?

His mind moved and he fell on healing spells again.

Healing spells... are extremely practical.

For some reason, Liu Ping suddenly remembered the scene when he first arrived in Dark Mist Town.

After learning that he was a healer, the night watchers looked at him differently.

…Yes, treatment is very important.

Looking at other people, you can tell that everyone's equipment is very crude and they have lost their power.

If you go on a trial in an unfamiliar environment, saving your life is the most important thing.

Then——

Learn healing spells first, and then learn auras later.

Liu Ping's mind moved, and the power suddenly turned into a burst of enlightenment and appeared in his mind.

Lines of burning small characters emerged:

"You have mastered the 'Holy Chant Technique'."

"You become an 'apprentice knight'."

"Your cards have changed:"

"Card: Apprentice Knight."

"Name: Liu Ping."

"Grade 1."

"HP: 5."

"Attack: 3."

Liu Ping felt it silently, feeling that the muscles all over his body became stronger and his energy became more energetic.

"It's amazing," he said with a smile.

At this time, the classroom gradually became quiet, everyone had completed their duties, and their eyes turned to the old man.

The old man looked around and said with satisfaction: "Very good. You all had rich combat experience when you were alive. Now start fighting for your own future."

He stretched out his hand and gently pumped it into the void——

In an instant, the entire classroom disappeared and turned into a card that appeared in his hand.

Only then did everyone realize that they were in a mountain forest.

It was dark.

At the foot of the mountainside, a village came into view of the teenagers.

Raging fires burned in the village, and sporadic screams were heard from time to time.

The old man said: "Go and kill all the lost souls."

"Coming back alive counts as a passing grade."

"Note that in our eternal night, popularly speaking, 'alive' means that the soul has not been destroyed."

"The better your performance next time, the higher your score will be."

"Those with high scores will receive a tilt in resources and give priority to improving the level of their cards."

"——This is your first lesson in eternal night."
