Purgatory Artist-Chapter 211: A Bright Future
Chapter 211 - A Bright Future
A giant eagle with icy mist all over its body was soaring in the sky.
It passed through a silent canyon, crossed a vast swamp, and finally saw the blue frost that connected the sky and the earth.
— — The human empire, the "Fool 3-6912" Sequence had fallen into a state of stagnation.
The giant eagle's eyes flashed and was about to continue flying forward.
Suddenly.
A faint shadow flew up from the forest below and blocked the giant eagle's path.
It was a woman in a black dress with a basket in her hand.
"This is my resting place, what business do you have here?" the woman stared at the giant eagle and asked.
"Move aside, I want to go over." the giant eagle said.
The woman's face slowly showed a smile.
In the breeze, her dress fluttered lightly, revealing the deep white bones underneath.
"I'm sorry, I was just curious ... so I asked"
As soon as she said that.
Pa!
The giant eagle that was over a hundred feet long turned into a fruit shrouded in frost and flew into the woman's hand.
The woman picked up the fruit and sniffed it lightly, then said with a smile, "A fruit that contains mystery power, it must taste much better than the previous one, I need to treat it seriously."
She took out a small and sharp knife and began to peel the fruit.
The fruit immediately let out a series of miserable howls.
The woman seemed to not notice it and began to sing softly:
"There are two small fruits. They contain a mysterious power, but they still need time to grow."
"My dear fruits, I must stay away from you for now, patiently waiting for you to ripen."
She hummed a song as she carefully peeled the fruit.
In the basket in her arms, every fruit was trembling, and some of them were even letting out low sobbing sounds.
...
On the other side.
On a barren mountain.
Liu Ping looked at the void of space, his eyes locked onto a line of small text:
[— — Your cards will be upgraded the same way as you upgrade]
He sighed in relief.
Previously, although the Heroic Spirit UI was very useful, he always felt that it wasn't suitable for the Evernight environment.
Now that it had evolved, it already met his expectations.
— — Finally, he didn't need to rely on the "Fool" Sequence to level up.
And more importantly — —
As long as it was someone close to him, he could use his own upgrade method to increase his strength.
"Libertas." Liu Ping said.
"Hmm?" Libertas looked at him.
The sourc𝗲 of this content is freēwēbηovel.c૦m.
"I found a way for you to continue increasing your strength. This method is also the key to our escape." Liu Ping said.
"What is it? Tell me." Libertas urged, his voice filled with urgency.
Liu Ping placed his hand on his shoulder and said in a low voice, "Before that, I want to ask, do you trust me?"
"Of course. Why do you ask?" Libertas asked suspiciously.
"Our situation is very dangerous. If you trust me, then give yourself to me." Liu Ping said.
Libertas was stunned. He looked uncomfortable and took two steps back. "Wait, brother, what do you mean?"
"You are a living being. As long as you agree, I can keep you as a card." Liu Ping said.
Libertas was taken aback as he said, "Just like the Sequences?"
"Yes." Liu Ping said.
"Then you put me away ... How are you going to treat me?" Libertas asked.
"If I want to get through this, I have to think of another way. It's best if I hide as well." Liu Ping said.
"Why do you have to do that?" Libertas asked.
Liu Ping said, "For that monster, our levels are too low. It won't even bother to eat us. This made me think of something ..."
Libertas curiously asked, "What?"
"In front of that monster, perhaps the lower the level, the safer it is." Liu Ping said.
"This, whether it's the suggestion card or what we saw with our own eyes, it has already been confirmed." Libertas said.
"So, if you trust me, let me keep you as a card. Maybe we can escape." Liu Ping said.
Libertas thought for a while, then struggled. "Brother, you won't ... do anything to me, right?"
"What do you mean?" Liu Ping asked curiously.
Their gazes met.
Libertas gradually heaved a sigh of relief. He slapped his thigh and said, "Okay, anyway, we're already in a desperate situation. Also, you saved me — if you can keep me, then keep me."
"Then I'll keep you." Liu Ping said.
As soon as he said that, a number appeared on the top left of Libertas: 9.
This was his level as an Assassin.
Liu Ping patted his shoulder.
Poof!
With a soft sound, Libertas disappeared from where he stood, and a card appeared in Liu Ping's hand.
Liu Ping looked at the card.
He saw Libertas sitting beside a big bed and shouting with a face full of fear, "Wait! Brother! Why is there a bed here? "
"My Card deck is called 'Joy', so any existence that becomes my card will directly appear in an environment that they want to be in." Liu Ping said.
"Where's Andrea?"
"On the other card next to you."
Liu Ping took out Andrea's card and showed it to Libertas.
Andrea was watering a pot of beautiful flowers.
"Ah? Are you lucky enough to become a member of our Joy Card deck? " Andrea was surprised.
Libertas looked at Andrea, then at Liu Ping, then at the bed, then finally relaxed.
He took off his boots and yawned: "Brother, whether we live or die depends on you. I'm going to take a nap first."
He laid down on the bed, closed his eyes, and began to sleep.
Liu Ping put the card away.
— — -Now, it's finally the crucial moment.
Liu Ping lightly pulled something from the void of space.
A card appeared in his hand.
Poof!
As the card was thrown out, it turned into a yellow Pastoral Dog.
— — Fire Fang!
This was the Flesh Hunting Dog from before, after being trained by Zhao Chanyi, to avoid being followed, it was stripped of its bloodline and turned into a normal Pastoral Dog.
At the top left of it, there was a faint number "1" floating.
A level 1 Pastoral Dog!
Fire Fang barked a few times, jumping back and forth in front of Liu Ping, happily wagging his tail.
Liu Ping crouched down, stroked Fire Fang's head and said: "Sequence, load the method to level up Fire Fang."
[Loaded] the Sequence responded.
Fire Fang suddenly showed an expression of attention, staring at the void of space in front of it.
Liu Ping smiled: "Exploring, fighting, and collecting cards can all make you stronger, got it?"
"Woof!" Fire Fang barked excitedly.
(TN: can't talk because of race change. the goodest boy!)
"Very well, now let's see where you can put things on your body ..."
Liu Ping looked at Fire Fang and suddenly realized that it was missing a tooth.
"Listen carefully, Fire Fang."
"From now on, you have to stick to this dark blue frost, and keep moving in the direction I tell you."
"Woof!"
"The only rule: You can increase your endurance by leveling up, but you must not exceed level 5."
"Woof!"
"Very well, let's get ready to go."
Liu Ping took out a card and held it in his hand, then put his other hand in Fire Fang's mouth.
In the void of space, lines of small burning words quickly appeared:
[You've activated the Occult Card: 'Rock of Nothingness']
[You've become the level 1 Pastoral Dog: Fire Fang's tooth]
Poof!
With a soft sound, he disappeared from the spot.
On the grass, there was only a yellow Pastoral Dog left — —
Fire Fang.
"Woof woof woof!"
Fire Fang barked a few times, then ran in the direction Liu Ping pointed at.
It ran on the hillside full of rocks, and after about 20 minutes, it was gradually panting from exhaustion.
Suddenly.
Fire Fang found something strange.
Among the rocks, a fragrant flower swayed with the wind, and two lines of small words floated above it:
[Mark: Ownerless item]
[This flower contains a small amount of mystical power, can be collected]
— — -Collect cards?
Fire Fang was confused.
Liu Ping's voice suddenly came from its mouth:
"It's fine, go collect that flower."
"Woof!"
Fire Fang answered, then ran forward and lightly touched the flower with its paw.
Poof — —
The flower turned into a card and fell to the ground.
Lines of small words appeared in front of Fire Fang :
[Stone Bone Heart Flower]
[Swallow it, it will temporarily petrify you, lasts for 10 seconds]
[Congratulations, you've received a mystical card, your leveling progress has reached 100%]
[You've leveled up!]
[You've become a level 2 Pastoral Dog!]
[Due to your leveling up, your owner has also received 5% leveling progress]
Fire Fang's fur became longer, and its body also became thicker.
On the top left of its body, the number 1 disappeared, and was replaced by the number 2.
Fire Fang moved its body, feeling that it really did become stronger.
It looked up and stared at the number 2, big drops of tears flowed out of its eyes.
What a pity!
I was originally a majestic Flesh flesh-hunting Hound in Purgatory, but after my defeat in Eternal Night, I became a Pastoral Dog. Now that I've finally received the method to level up, I have a bright future ahead of me!
"Awooo — —"
Fire Fang howled excitedly.
It regained its spirit and ran deeper into the darkness.
