The Freshman Slayer went berserk during his internship Chapter 72 : Chapter 72

Chapter 72: Moving into Qiyun Villa

After returning ho, Lu Zhan went to the Demon Extermination Bureau app and checked the information on specter realms again.

After looking into it, he discovered that the classifications were all over the place.

So used a very straightforward system of ranks, such as first rank, first level, and so on. Others used letters, ranging from A-rank to F-rank...But Lu Zhan still felt that the official classifications were the most accurate.

From low to high, they were: Wandering Soul, Wild Specter, Malicious Specter, Fierce Specter, and Specter General... There were probably higher realms beyond those, but for now, only these had been made public.

After browsing the forum for a while longer, he submitted today’s report.

One Demon Nest, and two Malicious Specters.

The reward from the Demon Extermination Bureau definitely would not be low.

Sure enough, the very next day, Lu Zhan received three million in cash in his bank account.

He tapped into his personal profile on the Demon Extermination Bureau app.

Na: Lu Zhan

ID Number: 56*********

Realm: Second Level of the Divine Sea Realm

Jurisdiction: Peach Blossom Alley

Contribution Points: 500

rit Points: 36

Completed Missions: The White Bone Case at Anxi Residential Complex, the Disappearance of the Jurisdiction Head of Peach Blossom Alley, the Blackwater Hall Incident at Jade Bottle Bay, the Peach Blossom Alley Demon Nest Incident, the Supernatural Incident at the Li Residence in Peach Blossom Alley, the Yinshan Specter General Incident.

In the span of just one month, Lu Zhan had directly completed six missions, and every one of them had been D-rank Missions.

If the new recruits saw that, their mindsets would probably collapse, since so of them still could not even hold their own jurisdictions.

Lu Zhan glanced at his rit Points again.

Not bad. He only needed fourteen more points to advance to Demon-Suppressing Mage.

That efficiency was downright terrifying!

Just then, the system suddenly popped up a mission.

[ Ding! Main Quest detected — Beco a Demon-Suppressing Mage ]

[ Mission Ti Limit: 3 months ]

[ Mission Reward: Elite Talent Upgrade Card ]

[ Accept? ]

“Yes!”

There was no need to hesitate. Lu Zhan accepted the Main Quest at once.

Still, there was no need for him to rush to complete it. After all, he still had three months.

For Lu Zhan, let alone three months, he could earn fourteen rit Points in a single month.

“Forget it. I should sleep first.”

Looking at the faint light outside, he let out a sigh.

He really had been busy all day today. Even with Lu Zhan’s physique, he was feeling the strain a little.

And the Blood Moon had only just begun. More incidents were bound to occur in Peach Blossom Alley afterward.

There were definitely more specters than just those two.

As expected, the turmoil brought on by the Blood Moon lasted for a full seven days.

During those seven days, Lu Zhan was so busy his feet barely touched the ground, handling more than a dozen cases involving wandering souls and wild ghosts causing trouble.

Only then did Peach Blossom Alley truly return to its forr peace.

At the sa ti, Lu Zhan moved house today.

He was now living in a villa in the Eastern District, a property Wang Botao had helped him find.

But Wang Botao felt that he had not really done much. He had only spread one piece of news to the outside world— Brother Lu wanted to buy a house!

And then, just like that, a whole crowd of real estate developers ca running to him to give Lu Zhan houses.

The frenzy was even crazier than people fighting over a limited edition release.

Red, blue, gold... keys to all kinds of luxurious villas, scale models, and exquisitely printed brochures piled up all over the table in front of Wang Botao.

It left him completely dazzled.

After all, the villa he and Shangguan Ling lived in had been bought with real money.

It had cost them more than five million, and they had not saved a single cent.

But when Brother Lu bought a house, he did not spend a single cent.

Not only did he spend nothing, it even ca with top-tier renovation and all kinds of household appliances... Lu Zhan could move in with nothing but his luggage.

And the reason they were all scrambling to pay for it was even more bizarre.

All they wanted was to share one al with Brother Lu.

Sotis Wang Botao could not help muttering inwardly: they were all Jurisdiction Heads from the sa intake, so why was the treatnt gap this huge?

Then again, it made sense. With Brother Lu’s current reputation in Peach Blossom Alley, who would dare take his money? Were they not afraid of being drowned in spit?

Outside Peach Blossom Alley, calling him the Asura Saber would not get anyone upset.

But inside Peach Blossom Alley, he was Lord Lu the Just! A living banner of salvation, the man who swept away evil and rescued the suffering!

Anyone who dared call him the Asura Saber there... heh, they probably would not even make it out of Peach Blossom Alley alive.

After going back and forth over the options, Wang Botao finally selected ten villas and let Lu Zhan choose for himself.

Lu Zhan picked a Chinese-style villa from among them— Qiyun Villa!

The mont he pushed open the villa gates, the faint fragrance of wooden furniture drifted toward him. The hall was lofty and spacious, with enormous floor-to-ceiling windows, and all the furnishings were already in place.

“Tsk, this is nice and roomy.”

Lu Zhan muttered to himself and casually tossed the backpack containing his spare clothes into the wardrobe.

Then he opened his Inventory.

[ Four Symbols Mountain-Guarding Array x1, 1 Nightmare Demon Peach, 20 Talent Fragnts, 25 Divine Origin Pills, 500 cubic ters of Spirit Soil, 5 Soul-Tempering Pills, 1 Marrow Cleansing Pill, 1 Spirit-Gathering ditation Cushion ]

“It is about ti I checked what the Four Symbols Mountain-Guarding Array does. System, use the Four Symbols Mountain-Guarding Array.”

The mont the thought arose, four dim lights whirled together out of the void. They were four array flags, each only palm-sized, their surfaces ancient and weathered.

Embroidered upon them were the four divine beasts: Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise.

At the sa ti, a map of Qiyun Villa’s terrain appeared in his mind. With a single thought from Lu Zhan, the four array flags turned into streams of azure, white, red, and black light and shot into the sky.

Yet the mont they touched the villa roof, they spread outward like ripples on water.

In the end, they completely rged into Qiyun Villa itself.

[ Four Symbols Mountain-Guarding Grand Array deploynt complete ]

Lu Zhan carefully sensed it and discovered that the Four Symbols Mountain-Guarding Grand Array had two forms.

One was a semi-open mode. People could enter and leave freely, and as long as they bore no hostility, the array would not be triggered.

The other was a closed mode. Once activated, no one could enter or leave unless the array was broken.

What surprised Lu Zhan even more was that this array required no additional materials. It could absorb spiritual energy from heaven and earth on its own to sustain its operation.

On top of that, it also had a slight effect of refining spiritual energy.

“As expected of sothing produced by the system. It is truly useful.”

Lu Zhan gave it a brief evaluation.

Afterward, he planted the Spirit Soil and the Nightmare Demon Peach in the courtyard. Once he was done, Lu Zhan discovered that the spiritual energy within the villa had risen slightly again.

Now the spiritual energy density in Qiyun Villa was a full twenty percent higher than outside.

That counted as an unexpected delight.

After finishing all that, Lu Zhan returned to his room. The “safe zone” had already been set up.

Next, it was ti to raise his strength properly.

Taking out all the pills, along with the Spirit-Gathering ditation Cushion, Lu Zhan began his arduous cultivation.

[ Detected that the Host has consud a Marrow Cleansing Pill. Aptitude and constitution are now being enhanced... ]

Not long afterward, the dicinal power of the Marrow Cleansing Pill spread through his body.

At the sa ti, his stomach churned continuously, absorbing every bit of that dicinal power without wasting any of it.

Lu Zhan knew this was the effect of [ Refining Stomach — Effect 1: Devouring Amplification ] taking effect.

He could clearly feel the Marrow Cleansing Pill improving his innate constitution.

At the sa ti, impurities within his body continued to be expelled. After about twenty minutes, the improvent finally ca to a stop.

[ Ding! Congratulations, Host. Your innate constitution has improved greatly. ]

[ Your talent Refining Stomach has triggered. Your physical body has improved greatly. ]

“Just as I thought. Once I reached the level of a Spirit-grade Spirit Root, a single Marrow Cleansing Pill was no longer enough to raise my talent by another grade. Even so, my sensitivity to spiritual energy is now about one and a half tis what it used to be.”

Lu Zhan was extrely satisfied with the effects of the Marrow Cleansing Pill.

Now that his aptitude had improved, it was also ti to raise his realm.

“System, spend it all!”

[ Ding! The Slaughter System is wholeheartedly at your service. ]

[ The Host consus 5000 Slaughter Points to begin cultivation. ]

[ Detected: 25 Divine Origin Pills, cultivation speed increases by 50%; 5 Soul-Tempering Pills, soul strength increases by 20%, cultivation speed increases by 50%; 1 Spirit-Gathering ditation Cushion, cultivation speed increases by 100% ]

[ Entering the Unceasing Cultivation State... ]
