Chapter 75 - Wang Yu's Answer, Join the Night Watchmen?
75 Wang Yu’s Answer, Join the Night Watchmen?
It was here!
Wang Yu’s heart skipped a beat.
Wang Yu knew that whether it was his own ability or the matter of exchanging the Abyssal Anchor with the system, it would lead to an investigation, or even an interrogation.
However, the person who interrogated him turned out to be the head of the Night Watchmen, a Rank 6 professional.
Wang Yu was silent for a while before he slowly said, “I have a talent…”
It was impossible to hide it.
There were too many strange items in this world, and there might be something to lie to.
Moreover, the level difference between Wang Yu and Liu Hongliang was too big. Wang Yu didn’t think he could hide much from him.
It was better to just explain everything clearly.
Most importantly, Wang Yu didn’t think there was anything he couldn’t say.
System? Wouldn’t it be better to just treat it as a talent?
On the Blue Planet, there was a small number of profession class holders who would awaken a talent that belonged to them during their first profession change.
For example, fire damage increased, additional attack power gained, the ability to contract one more familiar, and so on.
There were also some profession class holders who suddenly awakened one day.
No matter which method he used, the probability was not high. According to official statistics, it was about one in a hundred thousand.
Although the probability was low, it did exist.
There were all sorts of talents.
Wang Yu had packaged the system as his own talent. It might seem strange, but it did make sense.
“Innate talent?” Liu Hongliang asked.
“En!” Wang Yu nodded and said, “This talent can exchange a piece of my legendary equipment for my ability.”
“Of course, it’s not absolute. There’s a chance.”
Wang Yu emphasized the word ‘my’ and hid a portion of it.
“Yours?” Liu Hongliang looked at Wang Yu with a faint smile.
“Yes, it’s mine,” Wang Yu’s face didn’t turn red, and his heart didn’t beat fast.
At the same time, he muttered in his heart, ‘This is an NPC, this is an NPC…’
Would you be nervous when lying to an NPC in a game? Obviously not.
Liu Hongliang gave Wang Yu a deep look and did not dwell on the issue.
“So, that’s how your frost, flame, lightning, and Azure Dragon came about?” Liu Hongliang asked.
“Yes.” Wang Yu nodded and said, “I exchanged for the Abyssal Anchor as well. It’s a pity that I failed.”
“It’s fine even if it’s not yours?” Liu Hongliang asked.
“As long as it’s in front of me, and I can touch it.”
Then, Liu Hongliang asked a few more questions, including whether it could only be exchanged with legendary equipment, whether his own equipment of the same quality would work, what would the effect of different equipment on the result, and if there was a limit to the number of times it could be exchanged.
Wang Yu had told him everything he knew and answered honestly for those he didn’t know.
“So the Abyss Church incident is true?” Liu Hongliang asked after a moment of silence.
“Yes, it is,” Wang Yu answered. “I’ve exchanged an ability from my talent. I can get information from the dead.”
“And…”
“Enslave their souls.”
“This matter was too shocking, so after getting information about the Abyss Church from One-Eyed Dragon, I only dared to write a letter to the City Guard Division.”
“After all, the college entrance examination is in a few days. At that time, I didn’t want this incident to affect the college entrance examination.”
Wang Yu had also designed this speech.
He had been thinking about a question for the past few days: Did he have anything to do with the tragedy in G City?
Wang Yu felt that it did not matter much.
Judging from the results this time, the Abyss Church had mobilized too many people and magical beasts.
If G City’s officials arrested them in advance, the Abyss Church would only be able to launch the ceremony in advance.
According to the news that Wang Yu had heard in the past few days, the Abyss Church had been found in several cities around G City.
Therefore, no matter how one looked at it, one of the cities would be in trouble.
It was not entirely true that Wang Yu had nothing to do with this matter.
It was very important how to get himself out of it.
Wang Yu had only said this after careful consideration.
First, enslaving the dead was a taboo. Second, he had done what he could. Third, he was still a student and had to take the college entrance exam.
It was only natural that Wang Yu didn’t say anything under the three.
Sure enough, after hearing this, Liu Hongliang looked deeply at Wang Yu and said nothing else.
The office fell silent again.
After a long time, Wang Yu suddenly heard Liu Hongliang say, “Would you like to join us, the Night Watchmen?”
“What?” Wang Yu was taken aback and almost misheard.
“What’s wrong? You’re not willing?” Liu Hongliang said lightly.
“Uh… Can I refuse?” Wang Yu carefully probed.
“No,” Liu Hongliang smiled faintly.
“Alright, I’ll join.” Wang Yu sighed.
Liu Hongliang was in a hurry to let him join the Night Watchmen, so it must not be a good thing. ‘It seems that fighting to the death is inevitable in the future…’
“What’s wrong? You’re not willing?” Liu Hongliang’s eyes narrowed.
“No, definitely not.” Wang Yu laughed.
“Alright.” Liu Hongliang nodded. “Since you’re so tactful, I’ll give you a piece of advice. Don’t go to Zhenyuan University for now.”
“Why?” Wang Yu was stunned. He immediately thought that it might be because of the Abyssal Curse on him.
“The Abyss has left a mark on you. If you dare to appear near the Abyssal Chasm, I’m afraid there will be a Rank 6 magical beast coming out of the Abyss to kill you.”
“Do you believe me?”
“Hiss–” Wang Yu gasped.
What hatred!
Not to mention a Rank 6, even a Rank 4 would be able to kill him easily.
If they really met, Wang Yu could not think of any way out.
He couldn’t afford to offend them.
Wang Yu thought of something and quickly asked, “If I join the Night Watchmen, can I still go to university?”
“It’s fine,” Liu Hongliang waved his hand and continued to work on his documents as he said, “With your Rank 1 strength, how can you keep watch at night? We’ll talk about it when you reach Rank 3.”
“Someone will contact you in a few days. There’s a mission for you to do.”
“Oh.” Wang Yu replied.
He had been looked down upon once again…
Rank 6 strength… He was indeed amazing…
Wang Yu left the office when he saw that there was nothing else for him to do.
Not long after he left, a figure slowly appeared next to where he had been sitting.
It was a young woman in a business suit. She was pretty.
Beside her stood a strange beast. It was as big as a sheep and looked like a Qilin. Its body was covered in black fur, its eyes were bright and lively, and there was a horn on its forehead.
Shua!
Being able to distinguish right from wrong was a symbol of justice and courage!
“How is it?” Liu Hongliang asked without raising his head.
“He did, but not much,” the woman replied.
Liu Hongliang raised his head and asked, “He’s not lying?”
“No, he didn’t,” The woman shook her head and asked, “Do we need to interrogate him again? The contents that were concealed.”
“No need. This matter ends here,” Liu Hongliang said firmly.
“I’ll talk to the people above.”
“Do you know what to do?” he asked.
“I’ll keep it a secret!” The woman nodded.
After she finished speaking, she left. The sound of paper flipping rang out again.
