Chapter 37: Chapter 37: Sensational Job Change Chapter 37: Chapter 37: Sensational Job Change Editor: Larbre Studio “You… are you serious?” The other party asked incredulously.
“Heh, why would I lie to you? Hurry up and sum the total, I’ll take everything.” Chu You said in a tone that brooked no refusal.
The other party quickly lowered his head, ignoring Chu You’s dismissive ‘heh’. A pair of hands gloved in black peeked out from the wide sleeves of his robe, and began to move convolustively—as if that’s how he did his calculations…
“The total is 100,000 gold coins. Young man, you better not be playing gas with !” The other party raised his head and addressed Chu You warningly.
“Then let’s make a deal.” Chu You didn’t wish to waste words, and directly transferred the 100,000 gold coins from the total bill that the other had produced.
Imdiately, Chu You’s log showed a string of acquired items.
Opening his backpack, a total of twenty items with peculiar attributes appeared within.
“You really surprise . With this transaction, my task is complete. I’m very grateful for your generosity. I’ll rember you, Night Ghost. I believe we will et again. When we do, my rchandise will be different again, even more mysterious and bizarre. I wish you luck, goodbye!” Expressing gratitude and affirmation, the other party utilized his Spatial Art, disappearing before Chu You with the tent and all.
Chu You inspected the items in his bag. Besides the Mysterious Straw Cape and Hat Suit he needed, there were a few odd items as well, such as a stone of middling size, which could hide him on the road. As long as the Perception Attributes of other players couldn’t suppress his, they wouldn’t be able to discover him at all. He just wouldn’t be able to move, but he could cancel the effect at any ti. Then there were five interesting items: ‘Low-Level Experience Charms’. For two hours, killing monsters would give him bonus experience of 5%. A three-hour cooldown, instantly activated.
These were just minor gadgets. What interested Chu You the most was also the priciest item among all the rchandise, nad ‘Sky Luck Pearl’. This small pearl was sold for 50,000 gold coins, equivalent to 50,000 Soft Sister Coins. What were its attributes?
Sky Luck Pearl: A one-ti-use consumable. It has a 50% chance to restore all the body’s skills back to usage state, refreshing all skills currently under cooldown (CD). If the chance fails, it would amplify all of the player’s attributes by 70 for one hour. Usable by players of all jobs who are at Level 10 or higher.
Looking at the Sky Luck Pearl, Chu You knew that this item actually belonged in the late ga as a top-tier treasure. In the late stages of the ga, most players would be stuck with highly powerful skills on lengthy cooldowns, which often left them feeling helpless. But if they had this item, though it’s a 50-50 chance and a choice between two outcos, as long as they weren’t too unlucky, they could normally trigger a skill refresh. Thus, in monts of critical crisis, they would be the real deal!
Without a doubt, this item was ant for the wealthy. It would usually be used by the managent of powerful guilds that could afford it. Normally, it would be utilized by players in situations that exceeded the value of the Sky Luck Pearl itself, otherwise it was a loss. It must definitely be a situation where the value of their objective is far greater than the value of the Sky Luck Pearl, and there’s so sort of critical situation. Then, it can be considered as the big final play or trump card, and all those cases would usually occur in the wild. It was almost impossible to use it in instances.
Of course, there are exceptions for capricious tycoons who can use it whenever they want…
Also, there are exceptions for players who lose their rationality due to jealousy and raging hormones…
Having examined everything, Chu You took off his top and changed into the Mysterious Straw Cape and Hat Suit. His aura underwent another transformation, becoming engraved and mysterious.
System: You have used the Straw Cape and Hat Suit skill. You have 2 more uses left.
After putting the outfit on, it activated automatically. The next ti he put it on, the remaining uses would refresh.
Thus, for the first ti since he started playing the ga, Chu You used the Return Skill. A magic array appeared under his feet, and he vanished in the light that erged from it.
Liuying Village was still extrely bustling, with people coming and going. Chu You, in his peculiar attire, imdiately attracted the attention of many players. The tall, slender figure slowly walked away from the returning point, heading straight towards the biggest building in the village. He disregarded the curious players nearby, eyes focused forward, moving at a leisurely pace.
“Wow, this… this guy is so aweso.”
“Seriously, his level is showing as a question mark.”
“Hey, handso, can we be friends?”
“Who is this guy? I can’t even see his level, it’s all question marks. I’m already at Level 3!” A player exclaid in shock, which ant that the Chu You he saw was at least Level 8, or perhaps even higher.
“Where did this monster co from?”
“I rember now, this is that red-na player from the Triangular Instance. Height and body shape match up.”
“But his red-na status has been cleared already, how could it be so fast?”
A series of questions resonated in the noise. Chu You remained aloof, pulling his straw hat even lower as he continued to run forward.
Chu You’s appearance caused a surge of people in Liuying Village. Many players followed him as he moved, lots of them simply joining in due to curiosity. Players who didn’t know what was going on even thought that a Boss had spawned in the village…
The crowd effect was in full swing, attracting more and more player attention.
In the distance, a Priest player with a beautiful face looked utterly shocked. She was already Level 5 and she still couldn’t see his level. How horrifying was that? Because that clearly ant one thing—the lofty figure before her eyes was already Level 10. In Celestial World, players couldn’t see the levels of players who were 5 levels above them.
Level 10, what did that an? It ant the imposing figure in her sight was ready to choose his job.
This pretty gar happened to be the demon girl who was scared off the ga by Chu You. The image of Chu You was permanently imprinted in her brain. Even if Chu You turned into a pile of dust, she would still recognize him…
Terrified and bewildered, the demon girl imdiately pulled up her communication friends list and shouted at Zhao Feiyan.
“Fei, Feiyan, you know who I just saw?”
“Night Ghost…” Ca the calm response, guessing it right the first ti.
“How did you know?” the demon girl was taken aback.
“I can’t think of anyone else in the ga who would get a reaction like that out of you.” Zhao Feiyan said, her face indifferent. Then she turned to another friend icon and sent a ssage that was a complete departure from her tone earlier, speaking lovingly: “Luoshui Huixi, I see that you’re alone. Why not join our guild? Our team is all girls.” It was hard to imagine that this unattainable wonder woman was recruiting herself. This news would be jaw-dropping if it got out.
It seed that the impact of Chu You on her was quite significant. It was her first ti playing a fully imrsive virtual reality ga, her first player-versus-player battle, and her first inexplicable defeat at the hands of a man who didn’t hesitate or hold back. It was deeply morable, just like a woman losing her virginity. Plus, Chu You had wiped out her entire team without rcy. She knew in real life, all those priestesses and healers were delicate and eye-catching beauties. Zhao Feiyan just couldn’t understand or accept it, so she had to get to the bottom of this!
Lin Luor’s expression was a bit dazed. The difficulty of the instance was beyond her imaginings, and she had already died many tis there. But luckily, she had a recently-added friend who had been sharing the pressure with her, which eased Lin Luor’s burdens in this terrifying and depressing instance.
“Thank you, but unfortunately, I cannot join you. ” Lin Luor didn’t want to reject them outright, as she hoped they would chat with her a little more. In this grim and terrifying Nightmare Instance, the pressure a girl needed to endure was enormous, yet Lin Luor was bound to refuse the offer. It was her bottom line.
“What did you say?” A high-pitched scream ca from Zhao Feiyan. She stopped killing the monsters, ignoring their attacks. A stunned look appeared on her face. The demon girl had just sent a ssage that shocked her… that Chu You had reached level 10!
How long had it been? How was this possible?
“Is what you said true or false?” Zhao Feiyan asked with a serious expression, her voice sowhat anxious.
“I saw it with my own eyes. It’s absolutely true; even if I’ve gone mad, I haven’t started hallucinating.”
After confirming, Zhao Fei yan imdiately started fighting the monster in front of her. After it was defeated, she imdiately chose to return to town. She needed to take a good look, a good look at that despicable man…
Chu You quickly entered the village chief’s room, followed by a horde of rushing players. The players in the hall, who were undertaking and turning in tasks, were scared and baffled by what was happening.
The usually slow-moving, wrinkled-faced, hunched-over old village chief straightened up when he saw Chu You. His face flushed, his eyes flashing with excitent, he kept his gaze firmly on the cultivator approaching him in the straw cape suit.
“Your… what’s your na?” The village chief’s voice was steady and strong, unlike his usual manner.
“I’m Night Ghost, here to undertake a job change baptism.” Chu You stood a head taller than the village chief. Even with his straw hat pulled low, the chief could clearly see Chu You’s face. There seed to be sothing in the center of Chu You’s forehead, and his eyes, cold and disdainful, were watching him.
Truly a genius! The village chief silently nodded in his heart.
“What the heck, he’s changing jobs already?” In an instant, the players nearby understood what Chu You was saying. They were all shocked, and hurriedly took screenshots of Chu You and distributed the news to their friends. The news spread out like a gust of wind.
“Haha!” The village chief suddenly laughed to the sky, which confused everyone around him, including Chu You.
“I didn’t expect, I really didn’t expect that the first cultivator to undergo tamorphosis would appear in my Liuying Village!” After mumbling to himself, the village chief looked at Chu You with piercing eyes and continued, “Very good, very good. The first seat in the Celestial World will be taken by you! Please choose your profession. Rember, once you have chosen, you cannot regret it for the rest of your life!”
Chu You nodded slightly, and spoke in a tone that was implacable, “No regrets for life!”
The village chief nodded silently, and surprisingly, a stream of light began to radiate from his body, amazing the nearby players. The light gathered in the chief’s palm and imdiately struck towards Chu You’s forehead, stopping a foot away. The mass of light enveloped Chu You, and scenes appeared in Chu You’s mind, explaining what he would face after changing jobs. This gave players who knew nothing an initial understanding and a general idea of the characteristics and developnt path of each profession.
After a few monts, the cold and impersonal voice of the system rang out.
: The warrior class has four specialized jobs: Sword and Shield Protector, Sorcerer Swordsman, Fist Dao Qi Master, and Star Lance Warrior.
So… Night Ghost, please choose wisely. This lifelong career cannot be undone!
Chu You had made up his mind a long ti ago. A strange light appeared in his eyes as he slowly said, “Star Lance Warrior!”
: Please confirm your choice again…
“I’ve said it. No regrets for life, that is — Star Lance Warrior!” As soon as Chu You finished the last word, a golden-font ssage appeared in the eyes of all players in the Celestial World, sweeping the globe like a storm!
World ssage: A player nad ‘Night Ghost’ in the Yan Kingdom section of the Huaxia district has successfully changed occupations, activating the Key of the Operation of Heaven and Earth. The Celestial World is now officially activated. This type of ssage is unique and will not be issued again in the future!
