Purgatory Artist

   Chapter 166

  "This is your office?" Liu Ping asked.

  In the entire empty room, nothing else is too surprising.

  It's just that the walls are inlaid with dense metal pipes, and each one is turning silently, as if at any time.

  "This place has long been transformed by the sequence of wars. Each metal pipe has a unique function and can respond to our orders at any time." Hua Qingkong said.

  She faced the wall and said: "We have someone here who wants to advance their strength."

  On the wall, a metal pipe slowly stretched out and hovered in front of the two of them.

  The cold mechanical sound sounded:

  "Please take out the advanced card."

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

   Click!

  Metal Pipe received the advanced card, and made another sound:

  "The contribution value reaches the standard. According to the exchange rules, you will soon complete the advancement."

  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 metal pipes flew out instantly. It revolves around Liuping, and injects all kinds of things that Liuping can't recognize into the illusory box.

  Lines of burning small characters appeared quickly:

"Notice!"

   "You have obtained various mysterious side power blessings."

  "You are about to advance to a level three card."

  "This is the last strong improvement in the early stages of the career."

  "You can choose to go to the Pillar of Eternal Night to improve your aura ability at the place of the contracted heroes, or to obtain new skills based on your new profession."

  "The above promotion will only be carried out every tenth level."

  "Please choose carefully."

  —Only once at level ten?

  Liu Ping had to think about it seriously.

   Relying on the vague intuition, he can now vaguely predict that when he goes to forty meters, he will upgrade his aura.

  But in fact, I currently only master one spell:

  Holy chanting.

  This is the most basic healing technique.

  In the next long-term battle, I should seek some offensive methods belonging to the knights!

   Thinking of this, Liu Ping said silently: "The'Forty Meters' will not go there for the time being. I need to acquire new skills according to my profession."

  All the small burning characters flashed and turned into a new prompt:

   "Because you have officially taken the post of'Prison Guard Knight' and part-time as'Holy Knight', you have already left the ordinary knight profession."

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

  "—This is to cover up the existence of the ‘Prison Guard Knight’, and to make you stronger on the basis of the ‘Holy Knight’.”

"Congratulations."

   "You have acquired a dual-class unique variant skill: Healing the wounded."

"Skill description: absorb the opponent's thought, magic, spiritual, physical, energy, flesh and blood, muscles and bones... and other types of power to form a superficial cure for the opponent, and his power will be transformed into soul power , Be absorbed by you."

  "The degree of soul power absorption depends on the degree of injury of the target, and the correspondence is as follows:"

   "Minor injuries: draw 20% of the target's soul power."

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

   "Secondary Severe Injury: Consume 70% of the soul power, and the target falls into a weak state."

   "Seriously wounded: drained all soul power, the target fell into a coma (dying)."

"Special Note:"

   "The attribute of the dying and wound healing technique is sacred, and the effect is attributed to the healing element, so generally speaking, this skill cannot be dispelled."

  "—But there is help, either death or injury."

  After reading the line, Liu Ping couldn’t help blurting out and said, "I’ll go!"

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

   "Ah, it's okay, I just haven't upgraded for too long, and I'm a little excited." Liu Ping said quickly.

  No wonder that old man hates the holy knight so much.

  No wonder the gods of purgatory hate the guard knight so much.

  These two professions are released separately, and they can kill people anytime, anywhere!

Now…

  They are combined together, they are embarrassed!

  At this time, the metal pipes around were retracted one after another, and a number appeared on the upper left of Liu Ping: 3.

  From now on, he is a Level 3 professional.

  Just listen to the cold metal voice saying:

"Congratulations."

   "You have become a Level 3 professional."

  "Your character attributes are as follows:"

  "Class: Holy Knight."

  "Name: Liuping."

   "Level 3."

  "Health: 15."

   "Attack power: 20."

   "Soul Power: 0/12."

  "Your personal file has been treated confidentially."

   "Combined with the requirements of the commander-in-chief, this sequence will include you as a key training object."

   "You have obtained the full set of equipment that can be obtained at the current level."

  A metal pipe stretched out and placed a set of cards in front of the willow plane.

   Liu Ping calmed down, took a look at the card, and saw that the above were all equipment and materials suitable for knights.

   "The old man is so generous?" He said in disbelief.

   "Of course, the premise is that you deserve it." Hua Qingkong laughed.

  "Thank you in advance. After we return from the remains of the Kingdom of Ceylon, I will set a show and invite him to drink."

  Liu Ping felt the changes in her body by the way.

  Strength—

   does improve.

  Whether it is reaction ability, pure strength, even speed and mental power, it has a certain degree of improvement compared with the second level.

  This is the value of the war sequence.

  It can help human professionals keep getting stronger!

  The empire was established as a result, and gradually became stronger in just a few hundred years.

  Liu Ping drew a card from the set and placed it in front of him.

  On this card, there is a scale meter.

  —Advanced card.

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

  As long as you fill up 20 points of soul power, you can call the sequence machine again to raise your level to level 4.

  Next, I have to do my best to improve my level!

  Hua Qingkong took a set of soft-textured robes and handed it over: "Our new identity is a trainee member of the Imperial Energy Exploration Team. This time we have been sent to the remains of the Kingdom of Ceylon to record the underground energy deposits discovered there."

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

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

   "I remember, it was very cold there." Liu Ping recalled the knowledge in the book and said.

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

  This is their work permit.

  Everything is true.

  If someone wants to track it down, they will find that the information of the two is genuine, including at the Imperial Energy Exploration Center, there are also the corresponding transfer documents of the two, and even all the information they have since they were studying, all have been arranged.

   "Thirty minutes later, there is a train bound for the border of the empire; the airship will have to wait until tomorrow night. I can't drive a special airship for us. It's too eye-catching."

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

   "I will arrive at noon tomorrow." Hua Qingkong said.

   "Then we take the train, go immediately, and 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.

"go!"

  ...

  The train moved slowly.

  Hua Qingkong put her cheek in one hand, sat by the window, and seriously turned over a book about the Kingdom of Ceylon.

  Liu Ping sat opposite her, closing her eyes and resting.

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

   "I have read your book. There are several fallacies on the map." Liu Ping said without raising his eyes.

  "A fallacy?" Hua Qingkong didn't believe it.

"Yes, on page 367, at the top left of the map, eleven place names were printed incorrectly. Their order should be swapped from left to right—the revised version just came out, only the Royal Academy Library has it, and I just finished reading it. "Liu Ping said.

   Hua Qingtian simply put the book away, and sighed: "I almost forgot, you are a humanoid solver—it just so happens that I have a question to ask."

   "Let's talk." Liu Ping said irresponsibly.

  "On this land, why can we explore the human history of about three thousand years, and then we can't go further?" Hua Qingkong asked.

   "It's very simple. Three thousand years ago, this place belonged to a sleeping person. Later, it disappeared. After the human soul enters the eternal night, it has a chance to survive when it arrives here." Liu Ping said.

   Hua Qingkong hesitated and said: "You mean—"

   "Yes, when the sleeping man at UU reading www.uukanshu.com was there, the human soul was eaten by it as soon as it entered here." Liu Ping said.

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

"Who knows, there are some human kingdoms in history that have studied this, and there are too many speculations. One of the most interesting to me is that the sleeper figured out a way to escape the night and return to purgatory. Go in."

   Liu Ping finished speaking, and then asked: "—right, do you want to go back to purgatory?"

  Hana Qingkong said: "I think Purgatory has a strict hierarchy and various wars are cruel and bloody, but compared to Yong Ye, it is not so scary."

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

   Hua Qingtian was silent for a few breaths, turned her head and looked out the window.

  The prosperous urban street scene is retreating rapidly.

  The train starts to accelerate.

  It gradually drove out of the imperial city, rushing with all its strength on the vast and desolate wilderness.
