**Chapter 122: Assuming the "Night Walker" Job
Shen Ye wanted to carefully examine those talisman-like objects.
But it wasn't the right time for a detailed inspection.
The giant Skeleton said, "Put them all in the Storage Ring, quickly!"
Shen Ye waved his hand, and all the talismans instantly disappeared.
At this moment, a roaring sound came from outside.
"Click that red rune! We have to leave!"
The giant Skeleton said in an urgent tone.
"Don't rush."
Shen Ye said as he put away his trench coat, then also put away his wide-brimmed hat.
—This made him look completely different from before.
He pressed firmly on the red rune on the wall.
Ripples appeared in the void.
In an instant, he disappeared directly from the storage room.
A few seconds later.
DOOM!!!
Amidst a deafening sound, the door of the storage room was broken.
A female demon emitting a thick black mist floated in the air, and she screamed sharply:
"Damn it! He escaped!"
The werewolf stood not far away and rebuked in a stern tone:
"You cannot break into the VIP room of the Holy Soul Bank. Our largest shareholder is—"
The female demon glanced at the entire room and said with killing intent:
"Shut up. Do you know who that person was? Even your boss can't bear the responsibility for this matter."
The werewolf said with a grim face: "Please leave here. I will report what happened today, and I believe—"
The female demon suddenly turned around, stuck a finger into the werewolf's head, and her voice turned soft:
"Speak, what did that person look like."
The werewolf said in a daze: "A dark leather trench coat, a wide-brimmed hat, dark blue pants, and white shoes."
"Human clothes? Speak, what race is he exactly?"
"He covered himself well, I couldn't see."
Pfft.
The werewolf's head exploded directly.
The female demon's voice suddenly rose, spreading far and wide in all directions:
"Relay my orders, summon the Ghost Legion immediately, and search the entire city for a person wearing a dark leather trench coat, a wide-brimmed hat, dark blue pants, and white shoes!"
On the other side.
Shen Ye landed in a castle shaped like a pointed black tower.
This was the balcony of a room in the castle.
Amidst melodious music, whispers could be heard coming from below.
The giant Skeleton said: "It's a party—this is great, no one will come to our current location for the time being."
Shen Ye said: "Will the search start soon?"
The giant Skeleton said with a hint of tension in its voice: "Yes, and it will be a city-wide search. Get ready."
Shen Ye said: "Fortunately, I changed my appearance a bit. Now I'm wearing a cloak, and I changed the hat too."
"And what about the pants and shoes?"
"I don't plan on changing them."
"?"
A majestic female voice suddenly sounded from outside:
"Relay my orders, summon the Ghost Legion immediately, and search the entire city for a person wearing a dark leather trench coat, a wide-brimmed hat, dark blue pants, and white shoes!"
The voice echoed for a long time.
The giant Skeleton said in an increasingly tense tone: "What a pity. Once the Ghost Legion moves, things will become more complicated. I suggest you change the pants and shoes."
But Shen Ye waved his arms relaxedly and said:
"Dude, the situation is obviously tense now. In my hometown, there's a phrase that describes this situation perfectly."
The giant Skeleton asked: "What is it?"
"If the danger gets intense, you gotta take flight!"
Shen Ye placed his hand on the wall, and a door immediately opened.
He took one step through it.
The door disappeared instantly.
Everything seemed as if it had never happened.
...
In the courtyard.
"..." The giant Skeleton.
"..." Shen Ye.
The giant Skeleton said in a somewhat sheepish tone: "...I was too nervous just now and forgot that we can temporarily avoid the danger."
Shen Ye said as he picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip: "You'd better think about how to reintroduce yourself. In the past, I was too lazy to ask, after all, your personal privacy must be respected—"
"But the situation is completely different now."
"I feel like I might mysteriously die in Evernight City. I want to know your true identity."
The giant Skeleton said: "Actually, I am the Mother of Shadowy Bones, the King of Ghouls, and the Lord of the Underworld, Mictlantecuhtli..."
"Pfft!" Shen Ye spat out the tea in his mouth.
The giant Skeleton continued its words: "...heir of the bloodline."
Shen Ye said with displeasure as he put down the teacup: "Why do you take a breath while you're talking!"
"When the Goddess fell, I received her final divine protection, and no one could discover me, so I started to flee. In the end, I took an alias, Fern, bribed a General on the front lines, and became a receiving officer."
The giant Skeleton said: "But it's very strange. Various tests and pursuits always appeared—when I met you, I was on the verge of collapse."
Shen Ye asked: "Divine protection? Does it make people not recognize you?"
The giant Skeleton said: "Yes, unfortunately, I was still constantly being tested, doing all kinds of dangerous work, and in the end, I was seriously injured and on the verge of death."
Shen Ye asked in confusion: "Supposedly, if they knew you were the heir of the Goddess's bloodline, extremely powerful Undead would come to kill you! Why does it seem like just small skirmishes?"
The giant Skeleton said: "I never knew why I was being tested like this. This is very strange."
Shen Ye thought for a while, then asked: "You took an alias, Fern... what's your original name?"
The giant Skeleton said: "Feron."
Shen Ye was silent for several breaths, then said with difficulty: "Brother, if you take an alias like that, no amount of Divine Power can protect you."
The giant Skeleton explained sincerely: "Actually, in the language of the Undead, the pronunciation of Fern is slightly different from Feron. One has a falling tone, the other a rising tone."
"Who cares about your tone? We Humans have a saying: it's better to kill by mistake than to let go by mistake. Do you understand?"
"...My God, I'm going to learn skills. Let's meet again at twelve o'clock at night."
Shen Ye didn't bother with this person. He took the longbow, carried the quiver, and stood up to go to the courtyard to learn the art of the Flying Throw.
He had already learned "Flying."
"Throwing" remained.
This "throwing" seemed to have some wisdom to it.
Shen Ye closed his eyes, letting countless images appear in his mind, and countless techniques, experiences, and spells appeared intertwined.
He stood silently in the courtyard like this.
Time passed slowly.
Until the sky turned a faint yellow, on the verge of entering the night.
At a certain moment.
An understanding appeared in his heart, turning into a source where all laws converged, and finally condensed into the form of spells, and the seals formed naturally.
Shen Ye suddenly opened his eyes, his body shook, and he shot straight towards the sky.
At this moment, the sunset was like blood, and the twilight light shone quietly on him, dyeing him with a golden light. He rose against the wind towards the blue clouds, and from afar, he heard shouts of amazement from the ground, mingling with the sound of the wind.
Upward.
Always upward.
Until he broke through the clouds, and all sound was cut off. He stopped moving and lowered his head to look at the endless sea of clouds.
In the depths of the sky, a star suddenly appeared, casting frosty white rays downward.
These cold rays surrounded his body and condensed into the form of two blue dragons tens of meters long, flying back and forth above and below the clouds, and finally returned behind him, freezing on his left and right.
In an instant, countless cloud patterns bloomed from the bodies of the two blue dragons, spreading everywhere, forming symmetrical patterns, and finally transformed above the two dragons into a dragon pearl.
Two dragons competing for a pearl!
But this was not over yet—
Three lines of small, glowing characters suddenly appeared before Shen Ye's eyes:
"You have successfully assumed the job of ‘Night Walker’ and attracted a Fateful Star of the Arcane Realm, condensing for you a Stellar Form—"
"Vast Frost Palace!"
"Thanks to this Stellar Form, your ‘Heaven-Shattering Frost Moon’ only needs gradual refinement, and after things come naturally, they will all automatically advance to the First Level of the Arcane Realm."
"Thanks to this Stellar Form, your Arcane Eye ‘Moon God Illumination’ has advanced one level, reaching the First Level of the Arcane Realm."
"Description: Through this, you can sense the things of the Arcane Realm. Under the gaze of the divine eye, the past of the current things of the Arcane Realm is clear to see, but it consumes a large amount of your Spirit."
"In addition, your profession ‘Night Walker’ can attract the divine eye to release the Eye Art · Demon-Slaying Frost Lines."
"—This is the eye art of a ‘Night Walker’."
All the small characters disappeared.
The dragon pearl in the mouths of the two dragons behind Shen Ye shook and transformed into a divine eye emitting a cold aura.
At this moment, he stood proudly above the clouds, with two dragons condensed from frosty white light behind him, and a divine eye illuminating the world. He looked like a god who had descended to the world.
But Shen Ye's heart was devoid of sorrow and joy.
He was still thinking about the first skill of "Night Walker":
"Sudden Rain."
"Description: Release all arrows in an instant, and use the power of the Arcane Realm to attract ‘Moon God Illumination’, and release a rain of ‘Demon-Slaying Frost Lines’."
"—Once you are hit once, the fight is over."
"—The demon-subduing power of the Vast Sky."
It seems this move is used like this...
He flew forward a distance, then suddenly extended his hand and drew the longbow. His hand moved like an illusionary shadow as it plucked the bowstring.
In an instant.
The bowstring issued a series of successive sounds like thunder.
Swoosh swoosh swoosh swoosh swoosh—
The entire quiver was emptied.
At the same time, the magical eye in the Stellar Form above Shen Ye's head opened, releasing countless icy rays like a scan. They caught up with those arrows, collided in one place, and exploded into clumps of frost and snow, falling into the sea of clouds, and scattered downward.
A snowstorm landed on the earth.
Shen Ye watched silently, and after a while, he muttered in a low voice:
"My God, this is so strong—why didn't I feel that this world could be this strong before?"
...Maybe just this "Night Walker" profession is so strong?
Hmm...
Possible...
The giant Skeleton's voice suddenly sounded: "Brother, you'd better land quickly."
Shen Ye said curiously: "Otherwise?"
The giant Skeleton explained: "That move just now must have exhausted your Spirit, and even your physical strength has been consumed a lot, if you don't—"
Shen Ye screamed: "Ah—."
The Spirit was exhausted!
Even the free attribute points were completely consumed!
Shen Ye could no longer fly and fell straight down.
The giant Skeleton screamed: "You're not going to fall to your death, are you!"
