The priest gestured towards his car. "I have an appointnt, and I’m running a bit late. Shall we talk in the car?"
"Okay."
After they got in, Chen Gu glanced at the driver. The priest nodded. "You may speak freely here."
Only then did Chen Gu present the official docunt from the branch office. The priest examined it carefully. "I never expected a Radiation Missionary to appear in the Wuzhaoyin City Bureau of Mystic Security."
Chen Gu said, "I lack martial arts techniques that complent my profession. My team leader recomnded I visit the local branch of the church for assistance."
The priest mused for a mont. "In this era, there are no sectarian barriers, and the Holy Church’s martial techniques aren’t forbidden to outsiders. However, you are not one of our followers and have made no contribution to the Holy Church, so..."
Chen Gu nodded. "I understand. May I ask what kind of contribution the Holy Church requires?"
The priest considered this. "We need assistance with certain matters. How about this: I’ll have soone send you a list. The martial technique we offer in return will depend on the help you provide. You can consider your options."
"No problem."
Chen Gu exited the car and soon received a ssage from the priest’s assistant.
However, upon opening it, Chen Gu discovered not a list, but a link to a clandestine website. He clicked it and found himself on a commission website for the Atomic Holy Church.
Chen Gu’s access led him directly to the Empire River Star section.
There were several purchase requests for rare resources. For example, if Chen Gu could provide 20 grams of terror-insect series supermatter or nine kilograms of super-life remains, he could choose any martial technique from the Atomic Holy Church’s outer ’Holy Treasury’.
The commissioned tasks were varied, ranging from finding missing believers and helping believers fulfill their wishes to apprehending thieves who had stolen items from the Atomic Holy Church.
However, these tasks were all low-difficulty and didn’t involve Professionals, so the reward for each was quite minimal. They also used rit points for settlent. Chen Gu roughly calculated that to obtain a decent martial technique, he would need to complete over twenty of these trifling tasks!
As for the supermatter and super-life remains, those were out of the question; if he had any, he would keep them for himself.
Chen Gu browsed the page, muttering to himself, I don’t even know what the Atomic Holy Church’s martial arts technique is, or if it’s worth all this trouble...
Just as he was thinking this, DING! He received another ssage from the priest’s assistant. Opening it, he found a detailed introduction: ’Exposition of the Nuclear Combat Technique.’
The martial arts technique of the Atomic Holy Church is called ’Nuclear Combat Technique’? Chen Gu thought to himself. He carefully read the introduction once, then again, before silently closing the ssage. He couldn’t help but sincerely praise it. The ’Nuclear Combat Technique’ is truly powerful, undoubtedly the most suitable martial art for this profession.
I also didn’t expect I’d ever use that particularly grating line from the protagonist in the sixteenth installnt of that art-house film series: ’I must have her!’ Chen Gu chuckled to himself. Previously disheartened by the trivial tasks, he now felt reinvigorated and began to study the webpage with renewed enthusiasm.
The ’Nuclear Combat Technique’ was a martial art that perfectly integrated all abilities of the Nuclear Explosion profession with combat techniques and tools.
For instance, activating ’Mind Belief’ during combat, when combined with this technique, could provide enhancents similar to "anticipating the opponent’s next move."
When ’Radiation Scouring’ was activated, it would inflict additional radiation damage on the opponent and continuously affect their condition, judgnt, and even confidence through the skill.
If ’Atomic Life’ was activated, one could fight as if nearly impervious to damage, like a human tank.
Furthermore, this martial skill could be perfectly coordinated with ’Biological Nuclear Explosion’, triggering it with the final strike, tid almost flawlessly.
The ’Nuclear Combat Technique’ also included a thod to significantly extend the duration of all skills except ’Biological Nuclear Explosion’, to better synergize with the martial art’s execution.
Of course, during this process, the skills’ power would be slightly weakened.
Additionally, this exclusive martial skill featured a move called ’Glory Art’. At the most critical mont, it could instantly unleash all skills, achieving peak combat prowess.
Then... one would be completely drained, ready for ’glory’.
It was a last-ditch, all-or-nothing move.
Chen Gu hoped he would never have an occasion to use this ’Glory Art’.
As Chen Gu scrolled down the commission page, he scratched his head in frustration; there was nothing suitable for him. There were so high-reward commissions, but they typically involved things like "brokering an energy deal" with transaction values in the billions!
Moreover, such a deal required ensuring the Atomic Holy Church saved approximately three hundred million in funds.
Chen Gu didn’t think he had that kind of influence.
He was on the verge of despair, his finger rapidly scrolling down, when the page finally reached its end. Chen Gu sighed in resignation, but then, at the very bottom of the page, he spotted a sowhat familiar term: Yingudusi Devil’s Pit.
Chen Gu thought for a mont. Ah, yes, Big Rabbit’s mission.
Chen Gu had almost forgotten. They had agreed on two weeks, and about that much ti had passed.
He began to review the task: Explore the Yingudusi Devil’s Pit and find clues about the ’rebel’ Dilina. This mission has different reward tiers based on completion.
First, prove entry into the Yingudusi Devil’s Pit and a search for Dilina, even if ultimately unsuccessful. Reward: 100 rit points.
Second, discover so traces of Dilina’s activities within the Yingudusi Devil’s Pit, but with no further significant findings. Reward: 400 rit points.
Third, find multiple traces of Dilina’s activities in the Yingudusi Devil’s Pit and successfully map out Dilina’s complete movent trajectory. Reward: 1,500 rit points.
Fourth, definitively determine Dilina’s whereabouts within the Yingudusi Devil’s Pit. Reward: 30,000 rit points.
Fifth, retrieve a Holy Church artifact, one ’Doomsday Holy Hand’. Reward: 100,000 rit points.
Note: The public item code for the ’Doomsday Holy Hand’ is Earth Rank 3-04.
Chen Gu called Marcus to ask about the ’Doomsday Holy Hand’ artifact and its code. Marcus explained, "Anything terd an ’artifact’ is incredibly powerful. Most are crafted by true masters using large quantities of super-life remains and supermatter, and each possesses unimaginable might."
"My ’Kunlun Thunder’ and the Chief’s ’Fierce Fire Banner’ can only be considered weapons; they are far from being artifacts."
"Because super-life forms are often unique, and the masters who craft these artifacts usually have distinctive personal styles, almost every artifact is one-of-a-kind."
"Artifacts are categorized into three levels based on their power: Heaven, Earth, and Human."
"Major organizations all possess so well-known artifacts. These artifacts are ranked by power based on their performance in past battles; this ranking is their public code."
