A strange secret realm, a familiar battlefield.
In a wasteland, Lu Pingping walked casually, killing monsters one by one with the ax in his hand.
This is a secret realm in the city, and the ratings are relatively low, and here, there are only about one or two levels... which means that the strongest monsters that appear are only a few low-level third-level monsters at most.
"No threat at all"
This secret realm called "Gray Wasteland" is a standard dungeon secret realm. Its new monsters are its main specialty. Every day, many new people experience it here.
Lu Ping'an did not compete with newcomers for monsters, although he was probably the newest in terms of qualifications.
He walked directly into the deeper area, found a cave at random, and walked inside.
In fact, it is a rule of thumb to enter silently in every cave. This kind of closed area that can shelter from the wind and rain and avoid the wind direction is often the favorite at the top of the food chain, and in the secret realm, it also means the existence of "elderly people".
"Ha, found it."
A furbolg is nesting in the cave, tearing into pieces of meat... Judging from the clothes on the pieces of meat, some unlucky guy fell at the starting point.
"Roar!"
The beast instinctively let out a threatening roar, trying to drive Lu Pingping away.
But it made him laugh.
"Already have the intelligence to evaluate the opponent's strength? Then, it should meet the requirements of the sacrifice."
Lu Pingping dropped his weapon and just walked over normally.
"Roar!"
The beast retreated again. It instinctively felt something was wrong, but there was only a wall behind it.
"Don't be afraid, good bear..."
Lu Ping'an smiled and leaned over, directly accepted the other party's "cordial handshake", and then gave it a sharp squeeze.
How could the poor first-level pest be able to withstand the brute force of this black iron upper level combined with fighting skills? Both claws were directly twisted off.
Then it's easy.
Lu Ping'an held the furbolg's neck with one hand, and then...waited.
One second, two seconds...one minute, two minutes. The poor monster struggled for more than two minutes before finally taking a breath.
And its life has become a ritual sacrifice.
"Tsk, as expected of an evil god, he actually asked to strangle intelligent creatures to death with his bare hands. This ritual is quite disgusting."
"...If you put away the smile on your lips, I will believe you."
Ignoring the big cat's vomiting, Lu Pingan patiently waited for the ceremony's response.
[Beep, congratulations to the host, the inauguration ceremony is completed and you have obtained the level 0 profession 'Strangler'. 】
[Strangler (Heavy Armored Warrior) career modification: Physical fitness is slightly improved. 】
[The general skill 'Swordsmanship LV2' is converted into the professional skill 'Killing Swordsmanship LV2'. 】
[The general skill 'Lanceling Skill LV4' is converted into the professional skill 'Killing Spear Skill LV4'. 】
【General skills......】
After obtaining his first reliable combat profession, Lu Ping'an completed the transformation of a large number of weapon-using general skills.
Among them, there are high and low levels, and there are more than a dozen of them. Lu Ping An's meeting is too complicated.
It is worth mentioning that "Killing Ax Skill (War Sickle) lv9" is only one step away from reaching the state of opening up a new path.
The system also prompted him to choose a branch before he could move forward, but Lu Pingan wanted to think about it again.
[Acquire the professional skill 'Armored Bloodbath lv1'. 】
Although it sounds bloody, this is actually the core skill of the heavy warrior (warrior) - armor specialization.
Compared with the ordinary heavy equipment type, the profession introduced by Big Cat has an extra gift.
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining the seed of 'Erwrist Mark', please wait for one day for it to germinate. 】
There was an extra mark on the back of Lu Ping'an's left hand, which looked like raindrop marks arranged in a triangle.
This is the special feature of the evil path of "June Shadow" and the origin of the professional name "Strangler", but as the system description says, it is just a seed, waiting for one day to sprout.
"Start preparing for the first-order ceremony."
With Lu Ping'an's current level, zero-level blessings were meaningless to him. What he needed was at least a first-level combat job.
"Does it have to be strangled to death? It takes a hundred. It's a bit inefficient, and it's easy to be regarded as a perverted murderer."
"It's enough to make up for the last blow with the marked hand, but if it's all 'strangle', it may grant divine grace."
"God's grace? So good?"
"Well, there are few believers in the path of the evil god, and the divine favor is given more. The righteous god is indifferent, and it is too difficult to get divine favor."
Lu Ping'an nodded silently. How could he let go of such a good opportunity after having tasted God's grace?
So, on this day, a perverted murderer appeared in the secret realm of the wasteland. He specifically picked out troublesome monsters, "old monsters" who seemed to be intelligent, and killed them on his left hand.
"Hey, this is a bit inefficient. After so long, there are only more than thirty."
The ceremony required one hundred, but Lu Ping'an was extremely diligent and only collected thirty-seven.
How to determine whether "collection was successful"? When the life that meets the target is strangled to death by the left arm, a trace of black light will flow into the sigil on the back of the left hand.
"Is this thing really okay? It's a bit evil."
"It's okay. The death resentment that absorbs souls is the characteristic of the June Shadow Path. The ones behind this path are even more evil. But there is an advantage. It's easy to advance. Just kill it and you're done."
Obviously, this is a path suitable for big cats and safe roads.
"That's fine... I'll practice first." Lu Ping'an heard from Big Cat that some of the latter abilities met his needs, except that the advancement ceremony was a little troublesome.
Judging from the current progress, it will take at least one day...but there is no rush. The ritual is only one of the prerequisites for advancement. The real requirement for advancement is to awaken the ability. He needs to find a "friend" to eat a few God's share.
For him, martial arts, one of the core skills, should have already reached the standard line for first-level employment.
And "Armor Specialization" also needs to find someone to gain some experience, or awaken a professional ability that does not require "Armor Specialization"? Lu Ping'an thought about it for a while, and it seemed completely feasible.
Armor specialization is also troublesome to master. No one in the city can wear full-body armor. Even heavy-armored warriors go into battle lightly. It is very troublesome to gain experience. It will take several days to reach at least level 4.
The first-level profession has no threshold for Lu Ping'an now. If he can bypass the "Armor Specialization", he estimates that he can get it all within a week.
But the expected "emergency" disrupted Lu Ping An's plan.
"Has the information about the battle for the station been released? The day after tomorrow... we need to prepare. What the hell? Runner's Secret Realm?"
The half-plane of residence that they are competing for is a piece of A-level land, which is Hua Xueyi's castle in the air. It is also a B+-level land, because that land sounds good and there are more people signing up.
In order to ensure relative fairness, the highest priority issuer of temporary examination questions is the previous resident holder. Only if he voluntarily gives up will it be the school's turn.
"Reincarnation Paradise"
As usual, the specific "competition rules" are usually announced at least a week ago to give each club some preparation time... No one knows how evil the new owner will be, and whether those "competition rules" are purely to deceive people. Picture a joy.
Lu Ping'an decided to participate too late. Hua Xueyi and the others only sent over the relevant rules and competition information the next day. They were already lagging behind other clubs, but now they are actually even later.
It's just that the location of this "match" seems to be full of fun.
"Is it a new secret realm for runners? I haven't been exposed to such a secret realm before. I heard that force is prohibited like my bank."
Obviously, other societies that have already obtained the information will definitely deploy outstanding professional runners.
But in terms of intelligence, Lu Pingan may not have lost.
"This is a new secret realm that was just born. Everyone's understanding of it is almost blank, but it is very suitable for testing comprehensive abilities."
The new secret realm is naturally still under observation, and there will definitely be leaks of information, but under the control of the special service team, it should not be transmitted everywhere... At least, the amount of information is extremely limited.
"Sister Xia Qin, help me check which team managed the runner's secret realm, and then give me the number of their team's vice-team."
At this time, Lu Pingan had an intelligence advantage.
However, an hour later, when he knew what that secret realm meant, he even thought of giving up and waiting for the next one.
"Isn't this just making trouble..."
