[The ethereal spirit of unknown origin is entrenched in abandoned and uninhabited houses, crying day and night. The nearby residents are unbearable and seek help from the local police station. Find the ethereal spirit, make it stop crying or solve it]
[Mission: Let residents no longer be troubled]
[Advanced: Completely solve this task]
[Tip: The house has been abandoned for a long time, and the origin of the virtual spirit may be related to the previous owner]
[Basic reward: 1 credit; 1 team point]
It's a standard mission with no abnormalities, hoping to successfully lure the being behind the scenes.
Arriving at the Midnight City Academy Camp, the Holy Light Team went to Union Street and took the sequence potion when they were about to approach the uninhabited house.
They soon saw the dilapidated windowless cottage, with the door open and footprints showing on the porch.
"Where is Professor Chris?"
Jaeger frowned and whispered.
As the words fell, the darkness behind the window suddenly bloomed with light, outlining the beautiful, tall and plump silhouette.
Professor Chris wore a wide-brimmed hat at an angle, looking as elegant as if he were in front of the window of an inner-city cafe rather than a dilapidated and dark hut.
Lu Li stepped into the house and saw Kane sitting across the table, still emaciated.
"Owner."
Kane bowed and saluted respectfully.
"Are you a helper in this operation?" Lu Li asked.
"Think again." Professor Chris pursed her bright red lips.
Lu Li looked around. Cobwebs and dust were all over the dark house. No one had noticed it for a long time...
"Didn't the being behind appear?"
"Dear, try another way of thinking." Professor Chris prompted.
Honey?
Kiruait and the others, who were silent, exchanged looks in surprise. Could it be that the rumors were true...
Lu Li looked at Kane and thought of the answer: "You are the one who secretly solved the mission."
Kane was almost lying on the ground, not daring to raise his head: "A slave has the responsibility to clear obstacles for the master, but I am afraid that it confuses you..."
"You are not my servant." Lu Li refused again, tilted his head and said to his teammates: "I helped Kane before, so he also came to help me."
"Professor Chris..."
Kiruit first greeted Professor Chris cautiously, and after Professor Chris nodded in response, she said, "Fortunately, it's not a conspiracy."
"I apologize to you again..." Kane still considers himself a servant.
Realizing that they were going to be alone, Kiruai pulled Yeager and Naxi out of the house. When they left, Professor Chris said softly: "My dear, you don't seem happy to have a controller to protect you?"
"No."
However, Lu Li didn't think it was necessary. The difficulty of middle-level tasks was limited, and the rewards for completing the tasks were not considered by Lu Li. Starting from level 3, each department would be awarded 10 credits for each level up to level 6. Upgrading Mysticism to level 6 and
The reward for the theory of human nature is enough for Lu Li to advance to the upper grade.
Lu Li only needs to complete the promotion of mysticism, and then enter the senior year with Kiruait and the others who are also about to advance.
Only poor Fudot had to stay alone for several months soon after becoming teammates with Lu Li.
"Have the controllers arrived yet?" Lu Li asked.
"Don't tell him."
Professor Chris whispered, but Kane completely ignored her words and said: "It will take a few days, they are hunting an evil god who has lost his servant."
"Retaining a sense of mystery can make people look forward to it." Professor Chris said regretfully.
"Let them not take risks. If the hunt fails, I will replenish their humanity." Lu Li did not want these controllers to disappear into useless things.
"Please rest assured, in fact the hunt is almost over and no one died." Kane replied.
"I haven't seen you for a few days, and you smell even better, my dear."
Professor Chris whispered seductively.
After solving the "Book of Contract" note, Lu Li's humanity is close to 3 copies.
His specialness has already begun to appear.
"Be careful of anyone who comes close to you, my dear. Your body is becoming delicious, like a deadly bait... They will try their best to eat you."
Professor Chris reminded Lu Li again. Maybe they won't know it now, but as time goes by, Lu Li's taste will become sweeter and sweeter, and they will eventually be unable to resist it.
"And those churches, don't get too close. If they are discovered, they will do whatever they can to win you over, control you, tamper with your will, and harvest your faith."
The lingering faith that Lu Li rejected like poison was like honey in the eyes of the cult.
Compared to the former, the latter affects Lu Li more. After all, Lu Li will not go to the surface or the old sewers. But the cult is everywhere in Midnight City.
"I have confidence in the master, he will not be seduced by the cult." Kane said like a loyal servant.
Lu Li once again asked him to give up calling himself a servant. Kane reluctantly agreed, but still stubbornly addressed him as Lu Li.
The period of lack of humanity made him paranoid and crazy, but Lu Li's rescue went deep into his soul and was unforgettable.
After finishing the church, Lu Li called Kiruait and the others to come back.
"Professor Chris, can we leave?" Kiruit asked respectfully.
"Leave? But your mission has not been completed yet." Professor Chris said in a slightly surprised tone.
Kiruit became equally surprised.
"Is the mission real?"
"Of course, how else would you deceive the 'murderer' behind the scenes?" Professor Chris covered her mouth and said with a chuckle.
"Lord Lu Li, please allow me to solve your trouble again."
Kane volunteered. After Lu Li agreed, he walked into the depths of the house. Darkness enveloped his body, and some obscure force like a mist formed around him.
Kiruaite and the others were shocked when a pair of scarlet, bloodshot, beast-like eyes connecting nerves and blood vessels appeared behind Kiruaite.
"This is my cursed title, Watcher."
【Observer】
[A mother holding her child walks past you, raising dust floating in the air. The smell of shoe soles attached to the dust makes you frown, and then the breeze carries them far away, swallowed by the silhouette that blends with the sky]
[You can observe many details, and they rush into your mind. This is a good thing, this is not a good thing]
[Genius is on the left, madman is on the right]
Both a blessing and a curse.
Is this why Kane is still thin and gloomy after regaining his humanity?
"After releasing its power, its gaze will turn into an attack."
Kiruait's voice sounded, and huge and real eyes as big as his head swept across his front. An auditory hallucination-like scream suddenly stopped, and blood slowly flowed from the dusty wall.
Abandoned houses return to tranquility.
Kiruait and the others watched with envy, and the eyes behind Kiruaite disappeared into the void.
Lu Li signaled Naxi to cut open the wall. Wood chips flew everywhere, and a skeleton appeared between the cracks in the wooden wall.
"It seems there is something hidden." Professor Chris pursed her red lips.
But it has nothing to do with them anymore. After telling the local police station about the skeletons in the wall, the Holy Light Team and Professor Chris, who had to stay in Midnight City for something else, said goodbye to Kane and returned to the giant tree.
