The Abyssal Garden: No Room for the Idle-Chapter 142 - 134: Sweating Profusely, Aren’t You, Young Girl! (Seeking Monthly Ticket)
As they gradually approached,
they heard an intense battle unfolding. Numerous mutants were unleashing their strength against the keepers in protective suits in front of them... Weapons, energy, and superpowers burst forth repeatedly.
Meanwhile,
Sword White Clothes spotted those three players.
"I'll go help!"
Sword White Clothes, having just changed professions, moved and his sword flashed with light!
The mark on his forehead shone brilliantly!
He instantly unleashed strength surpassing his previous level.
"What's that?"
Xun Xiaohuan and the others also noticed Sword White Clothes and Cheng Feng, their eyes lighting up, "Other players, they aren't dead!"
"And they look familiar...." The man stared at Sword White Clothes, his eyelids twitching slightly, "It's the super rookie from Sword Flower, and he's completed his job change too..."
All of them were beta testers and could instantly tell the status of Sword White Clothes from the shining mark on his forehead. His strength, speed, and physical strength had all significantly increased.
Normally, in such intense team battles, individual combat capability was secondary.
However, with the job change completed, the strength that Sword White Clothes burst with quickly alleviated the pressure on everyone. In just five minutes, he had forced the keepers back in defeat!
"They've gone back up one level!"
The mutants shouted, "Damn it, chase after them while we've got the momentum, don't let them get away!"
"Charge!"
But just then, the middle-aged man shouted, "All of you, stop!"
The numerous mutants paused at his voice.
The middle-aged man said sternly, "Are you all fools? We've reached this final barrier, and we're about to face the real obstruction!"
"That supervisor won't just sit by idle... it's probably waiting for us to head there."
"At this moment, we should be recuperating and planning... give it everything in one final effort!"
"That's the most prudent strategy!"
Cheng Feng was moved, "Well said!"
Finally, there was a presence of a prudent gameplay style, this was the normal procedure and rhythm!
Xun Xiaohuan and the others also took a deep breath, recovered some strength and conversed with Sword White Clothes and Cheng Feng.
"Did you go to the deep space?"
"That is really unlucky."
"We also lost a teammate, mourn his loss," Xun Xiaohuan said softly, unaware that the teammate was Su Buxian.
Sword White Clothes turned to them, "Let's not talk about that for now. You are all beta testers, you must be close to completing your job changes."
"Yes, although we've been constantly fighting...the trial is also ready, but the job change still needs a moment to complete," the scarred youth nodded.
"Then I advise you to change your jobs right now."
The three were slightly stunned, "Right now?"
Sword White Clothes, in his white clothing, holding his long sword, looked toward the upper level:
"The moment I completed my job change, I understood that to escape this instance, relying on the original level 20 untransformed strength wasn't enough; activating the spiritual power... and getting the profession enhancement, is the only chance to fight for survival."
"So."
"I suggest that each of you complete your job change here."
The scarred youth looked hesitant, "This... our trials for changing jobs are complete, we need a safe environment, and it will consume an uncertain amount of Spiritual Ability Points, you know this amount is not small, the risk is significant."
Sword White Clothes had completed his job change during the battle, using nearly 500 Spiritual Ability Points to forcibly open the mark on his forehead, also obtaining a significant enhancement, which was slightly different from others.
Sword White Clothes frowned, "But only this way, there's a chance of success in escaping..."
The man patted the scarred youth on the shoulder, "He's right, we can't wait any longer. Haven't you seen how terrifying that supervisor is? Even if we run, we must give it our all."
"Alright, I understand."
The scarred youth took a deep breath and began preparing to complete the job change with the others.
Meanwhile, the supervisor was lying with his eyes closed at the last defense line at the exit, holding a giant axe, seemingly waiting for those people to arrive.
"When ants think they have a chance to escape the cage, they don't realize it's just a game."
Watching every ant desperately struggle, seeing hope and then facing despair, was the best source of energy, the negative emotions brought about by the pollution effect were also excellent.
"According to this progress, maybe after a few more feeding days, the stability of Ancient Mists will increase again... The chance of that existence's recovery will become slim."
"My master's future opponent will also be reduced by one."
Its body's totem faintly blinked, the pattern displayed was not of the Evil God but represented another divine being.
-----------------
At this very moment,
within the thick Old Days Black Fog,
The Master of Destruction glared at Su Qi, saying, "Why refuse?"
When the Master of Destruction had just asked to settle the bills,
Su Qi resolutely refused.
"Because it's urgent, big sister, don't you see what time it is?" Su Qi pointed outside at the black fog, "They are absorbing energy, deploying troops, and evolving now, escaping is the most vital thing right now."
"And…" Su Qi took out the bill and flipped through it, "you owe too much, it will take so long to pay back."
Master of Destruction: "...."
Look, what a sly miscreant! He even carried the ledger with him, and it seemed he only accounted for a bit of it, there appeared to be other victims too.
She suppressed the urge to slap this bastard to death, her eyes slightly cold, "I have never suffered a loss at someone else's hands, this matter must be resolved, but... if you think it's too long, then let's just play one round, gambling all the bills."
"Of course, it might seem somewhat unreasonable from me, but you can choose any game, Go, chess, poker, video games... well, not that last one, anything else is fine."
Having been naïve and excessively simple in her youth, she was swindled round and round, and the memories from her spiritual body made her clench her teeth in anger, so she studied a bit... and discovered many discrepancies.
And she wanted to squarely defeat this guy in these areas!
Su Qi sighed.
You're just delivering yourself to me, aren't you?
"Alright then, since that's the case, how about we make it quick?"
"Fine, but no using powers to cheat."
"???" Su Qi widened his eyes, "How can you malign someone's good name out of nowhere?"
"Heh."
Su Qi pulled out a deck of cards.
Playing cards, huh?
The Master of Destruction's eyes flickered, she was ready.
But Su Qi didn't play according to her wishes, "Ordinary playing is boring."
"Let's play the simplest... you pick any card, and I'll guess what it is, how about that?"
Master of Destruction: "?"
She hesitated for a moment.
Su Qi was best not at defeating others in their domain but at pulling them into his own and brutally suppressing them.
However, now it seemed advantageous for her.
Her eyes flickered with a faint light:
"Okay."
Su Qi then spread out the poker cards: "Now, you draw."
The Master of Destruction did not immediately start but glanced at the poker cards. All she needed was one look to tell if there was any trickery.
After confirming that there were no issues,
she softly said, "Wait."
Then she placed her finger on Su Qi's forehead.
"???"
Su Qi slightly paused.
The next moment,
Su Qi felt the world spin, his entire vision blurred, and then he came to his senses.
The Master of Destruction had already withdrawn her hand.
"I've already drawn."
Su Qi looked at her hand, but it was empty.
"Don't look anymore, I drew blindly, and I've put away the cards." The Master of Destruction looked at Su Qi: "Your ability is very special; I won't give you any chances."
She had previously studied Su Qi, who seemed able to deduce information from things within his sight... like some sort of investigative trait, and it was of a high level which she currently could not detect.
Given this, the Master of Destruction also had a way to counteract investigative traits, which was to directly block the investigation and avoid informational traces by all means.
Just like the Old Days when all traces were swept away, past myths disappeared without a trace.
Now, the cards have been blindly drawn, and even she did not know which one it was, leaving no information and no traces.
"Impressive."
After seeing her maneuvers, Su Qi could only genuinely admire.
The Master of Destruction indeed guessed his secret to always winning bets and had even prepared to handle it.
"Are you sure?"
"Yes."
"Are you really sure?"
New n𝙤vel chapters are published on freeweɓnøvel.com.
"Some investigative traits manifest extraordinary characteristics, merely gathering information from conversations." The Master of Destruction calmly looked at Su Qi: "Do you think that will work on me?"
Su Qi: "It seems you're confident of victory."
"Since you're so confident, how about we raise the stakes?"
The Master of Destruction furrowed her brow: "Raise the stakes?"
She pondered: "Okay, if I win, in addition to clearing the bill, you will need to sign a contract."
"What kind of contract."
"Master and servant," the Master of Destruction uttered two words.
Su Qi's eyes brightened: "You want to acknowledge me as the master..."
"BAM!"
The Master of Destruction slammed her palm on the ground, creating a rumble, her eyes filled with a dangerous air of destruction, coldly staring at Su Qi: "If it weren't for the fact you saved me, I wouldn't have been able to resist killing you by now!"
"Cough, just a joke." Su Qi looked at the cracked ground and coughed calmly.
"Fine... If I guess it, it's simple... the bill increases by 100% of the previous day's amount every day."
"?"
Master of Destruction: "Do you think I'm a fool?"
This calculation would turn the debt into an astronomical figure in no time.
"So you can see that..."
"..."
"There's indeed a hint of usury." Su Qi took a step back: "Then let's cancel the upfront."
The Master of Destruction widened her eyes: "Isn't that still usury? Bastard!"
Su Qi shrugged: "That's no way to talk to someone who saved your life."
The Master of Destruction made up her mind and spat out a word: "Fine."
She couldn't possibly lose, even with extraordinary traits, which rely on traces. In the Old Days... traces were the only way to find the truth, a problem that plagued countless investigators for thousands of years.
She had no way to detect even a hint!
She!
Was sure to win!
And then,
Su Qi, smiling, extended his hand.
Hmm?
Then slowly spread out the poker cards.
Hmm??
And unhurriedly flipped them over.
Hmm!!!!
Su Qi looked at the remaining 53 visible cards.
He scanned the area, paused, and his eyes lit up:
"Oh, so there is a King of Hearts missing."
"....."
This series of actions had the girl in the black dress standing rigidly in place!
She was utterly disoriented.
It felt like defending against heaven, earth, and the air, only to be bewildered by a corn cob!
As the Master of Destruction... her eyes, once sparkling with Star River, were now filled with various emotions.
Silence! Hush! Distracted!
Complex and perplexed!
Su Qi then patted her shoulder, saying:
"Young lady, the real skill sometimes lies in simplicity."
Sweating much, young girl?
