Infernal Artist

"This is your office?" Liu Ping asked.

Nothing else in the empty room was too surprising.

It's just that the walls are inlaid with dense metal pipes, each one spinning silently, as if ready for action at any time.

"This place has been transformed by the war sequence. Every metal pipe has a unique role and can respond to our orders at any time." Hua Qingkong said.

She said to the wall: "Someone here wants to advance in strength."

On the wall, a metal pipe slowly stretched out, hovering in front of the two people.

A cold mechanical voice sounded:

"Please take out the advanced card."

Liu Ping took out the advanced card and placed it in front of the metal pipe.

Click!

The metal pipe collected the advanced card and made a voice again:

"The contribution value has reached the standard, and according to the exchange rules, the advancement will be completed for you."

On the wall, seven or eight metal pipes moved.

At the same time, a faint box appeared around Liu Ping, and a number appeared in his upper left corner:

"2."

——He is a level 2 knight.

All the metal pipes flew out instantly. It keeps rotating around Liu Ping, injecting various things that Liu Ping cannot recognize into the illusory box.

Lines of burning small characters appeared quickly:

"Notice!"

"You have been blessed with various mysterious powers."

"You are about to advance to a third-level card."

"This is the last powerful promotion in the early stages of your career."

"You can choose to go to the Pillar of Eternal Night to improve your halo ability at the Contracted Heroic Spirit, or obtain new skills based on your new profession."

"The above improvements will only be carried out once every ten levels."

"Please choose carefully."

——Only once at level ten?

Liu Ping had to think seriously.

With a vague intuition, I can now vaguely predict that if I go to the forty meters, I will probably upgrade my aura.

But in fact, I currently only master one technique:

Holy chanting technique.

This is the most basic healing technique.

In the long-term battle that follows, you should look for some offensive methods that belong to the knight!

Thinking of this, Liu Ping said silently: "I won't go to 'Forty Meters' for the time being. I need to acquire new skills based on my profession."

All the small burning characters flashed and turned into new prompts:

"Since you have officially become a 'Prison Knight' and work part-time as a 'Holy Knight', you have broken away from the ordinary knight profession."

"The skills you will acquire come from the variant skills that are a combination of the above two knight professions."

"——This is to cover up the existence of the 'Prison Knight', and also to make you stronger based on the 'Holy Knight'."

"Congratulations."

"You have acquired a variant skill unique to dual professions: the art of saving lives and healing wounds."

"Skill Description: Absorb all types of power from the opponent, including mental power, magic power, spiritual power, physical strength, energy, flesh and blood power, sinew and bone power, etc., to form a superficial healing for the other party, and his power will be converted into soul The power is absorbed by you."

"The extent of soul power absorption depends on the target's injury level, and the correspondence is as follows:"

"Slight injury: absorb 20% of the target's soul power."

"Medium damage: absorbs 50% of the soul power, and the target falls into a state of exhaustion."

"Level serious injury: 70% of the soul power is absorbed, and the target falls into a weak state."

"Serious injury: Absorb all the soul power and the target falls into a coma (dying)."

"Special Note:"

"The attribute of the life-saving skill is sacred, and the effect is healing, so generally speaking, this skill cannot be dispelled."

"——But with help, he will either die or be injured."

After Liu Ping read the whole line, he couldn't help but blurted out: "I'll go!"

"What's wrong?" Hua Qingkong asked from the side.

"Ah, it's okay. I just haven't upgraded in a long time, so I'm a little excited." Liu Ping said quickly.

No wonder the old man hates the Holy Knight so much.

No wonder the gods of Purgatory hate the prison knights so much.

If these two professions are released alone, they can kill people anytime and anywhere!

Now……

They join together and work together!

At this time, the surrounding metal pipes were retracted, and a number appeared on the upper left side of Liu Ping: 3.

From now on, he is a level three professional.

Just listen to the cold metal voice saying:

"Congratulations."

"You have become a third-level professional."

"Your character attributes are as follows:"

"Occupation: Holy Knight."

"Name: Liu Ping."

"Level 3."

"HP: 15."

"Attack: 20."

"Soul power: 0/12."

"Your personal file has been kept confidential."

"Based on the requirements of the Commander-in-Chief, you will be included in the key training targets in this sequence."

"You have obtained the full set of equipment available at your current level."

A metal pipe stretched out and placed a set of cards in front of Liu Ping.

Liu Ping calmed down, took the card and took a look, only to see that it was all equipped with equipment and supplies suitable for knights.

"The old man is so generous?" he said with some disbelief.

"Of course, the premise is that you are worthy of him." Hua Qingkong smiled.

"Thanks in advance. After we return from the ruins of the Kingdom of Ceylon, I will make a show and treat him to a drink."

Liu Ping took the opportunity to feel the changes in himself.

strength--

It's definitely improved.

Whether it is reaction ability, pure strength, or even speed and mental strength, they have all been improved to a certain extent compared to the second level.

This is the value of War Sequence.

It can help human professionals continue to become stronger!

As a result, the empire was established and gradually grew stronger in just a few hundred years.

Liu Ping took out one card from the set and placed it in front of his eyes.

There is a scale on this card.

——Advanced card.

It is another blank advanced card, the scale displayed on it is 20.

As long as you fill it with 20 points of soul power, you can call the sequence machine again and upgrade your level to level 4.

Next, I have to work hard to improve my level!

Hua Qingkong took a set of soft robes and handed them over and said: "Our new identity is the trainee members of the Imperial Energy Exploration Team. This time we are sent to the ruins of the Kingdom of Ceylon to record the underground energy deposits discovered there."

"But why wear a robe?" Liu Ping asked.

"This is a cold robe - it can keep our body temperature normal to a certain limit." Hua Qingkong said.

"I remembered, it was very cold there." Liu Ping said, recalling the knowledge in the book.

Hua Qingkong took out two more certificates and handed one to Liu Ping.

This is their work ID.

Everything is true.

If anyone is interested, they will find that the information of the two people is genuine, including the corresponding transfer documents of the two people in the Imperial Energy Exploration Center, and even all their information from the time they were studying, all have been arranged.

"In thirty minutes, there will be a train bound for the edge of the empire; the airship will have to wait until tomorrow night. We can't send an airship just for us. It would be too eye-catching."

Liu Ping asked: "How long does the train take?"

"We'll arrive at noon tomorrow," Hua Qingkong said.

"Then let's take the train and leave immediately. We can't wait any longer - maybe the evidence in the ruins will also be destroyed by the other party." Liu Ping said.

"Okay, then we have to set off immediately." Hua Qingkong said.

"Walk!"

…

The train started to move slowly.

Hua Qingkong held her chin with one hand, sat by the window, and carefully opened a book about the Kingdom of Ceylon.

Liu Ping sat opposite her, closing his eyes to rest.

"There is a map of the Kingdom of Ceylon here, don't you look at it?" Hua Qingkong asked.

"I've read your book, and there are a few fallacies on the map." Liu Ping said without raising his eyes.

"Is there a fallacy?" Hua Qingkong didn't believe it.

"Yes, on page 367, in the upper left corner of the map, eleven place names are printed incorrectly. Their order should be swapped from left to right - the revised version has just been released and is only available in the Royal Academy Library. I happened to see it It’s over.” Liu Ping said.

Hua Qingkong simply put the book away and sighed: "I almost forgot, you are a humanoid answer device - I just have a question to ask."

"Say it." Liu Ping said obediently.

"On this land, why can we explore about three thousand years of human history, but not further back?" Hua Qingkong asked.

"It's very simple. Three thousand years ago, this place belonged to a sleeper. Then it disappeared. Only after the human soul entered the eternal night and arrived here did it have a chance to survive." Liu Ping said.

Hua Qingkong hesitated and said: "You mean-"

"That's right, when the Sleeper was there, human souls were eaten by it as soon as they entered here." Liu Ping said.

"Where did the sleeper go?" Hua Qingkong asked.

"Who knows, some human countries in history have conducted research on this, and there are too many speculations. The one that interests me the most is that the sleeper found a way to escape the eternal night and return to purgatory. Go in."

After Liu Ping finished speaking, he asked again: "——By the way, do you want to go back to purgatory?"

Hua Qingkong said: "I think Purgatory has strict levels and all kinds of wars are cruel and bloody, but compared to Eternal Night, it is not so scary."

"Yes, in the eternal night, you never know what kind of existence you will wake up, and how it will treat your soul." Liu Ping nodded in agreement.

Hua Qingkong was silent for a few breaths, then turned to look out the window.

The bustling city streetscape recedes quickly.

The train started to speed up.

It gradually drove out of the imperial city and ran at full speed on the vast and desolate wilderness.
