Chapter 74: Eight Hundred Lotuses!
 

The sun was shining brightly outside.

Even the thick curtains with large patterns could not hide it.

Warm light shone through the window and broke the darkness in the room.

Chunlan’s air-conditioner blew coldly with a slight whooshing sound, maintaining the room temperature at 20 degrees.

Su Mo was sprawled out on the bed with a thin blanket covering his stomach.

Even though he had become a Trascendent and his physique had been greatly enhanced, some of his old habits had not been completely changed.

Su Mo did not think that there was anything wrong with this. As long as it did not affect his life, he would not mind keeping some habits.

Many Trascendent were still engaged in second profession in the human world.

Coders, fitness trainers, tucking cosplayers, deliverymen, delivery boys, entrepreneurs…

The most ridiculous example Su Mo had ever heard of was a renovation worker.

There was once when he was renovating a house and slept with a mother and daughter while pretending.

Not long ago, it had even made it to the local news, directly occupying five of the top ten hot posts on the forum.

While many people were discussing his showy moves, they were more concerned about his Trascendent profession.

He was a [berserker], one of the ten official paths of mixed cultivators, and a Level-4 Trascendent.

He was of the same rank and profession as deacon Zhao Shouzhuo.

As an official profession that had saint, the berserker had two distinctive features. The first was Berserk, and the second was that the main strengthening of the body was endurance.

With the combination of violence and endurance, the outside world had always described the berserker as a mad bull.

Because of this, berserker had always had good luck with women.

According to the statistics on the forum, their average number of relationships could reach 12.

Su Mo seriously suspected that there was a strange creature like Qian Tao mixed in with the statistics.

When he first met Zhao Shouzhuo, he even planned to ask him questions after getting to know him better.

Unfortunately, the action yesterday had caused a great loss.

He didn’t have the mood to ask about it afterward.

After careful calculation, one-third of the members of the official team had been lost.

Almost two Transcendent squads from the districts were wiped out.

In addition to the Zhenwu team that was previously lost.

There were only three districts.

It would probably take some time just to replenish the manpower and let the new team adapt.

And more importantly…

Xu Liushuang, who was known as the strongest Tier 4 in Tianmu City, was severely injured in this mission.

It wasn’t the fog of the Death River that had injured him.

He used his magic tool as a price to forcefully block the corrosion of the fog.

The reason why he was seriously injured was because of a Life Bead.

According to Su Mo’s understanding, Life Jewels were closely related to Level 9 profession.

A Level 9 profession would hold the last promotion ceremony. After success, they would be promoted to a saint.

This advancement ceremony was the most dangerous of the three.

Even for the official jobs that had already cleared the Saint pathway, many people would fail due to various accidents.

Not to mention those special profession that had yet to produce a saint.

In the process of exploring the advancement ritual, they often paid with their lives.

With one Rank-9 after another as firewood, he would continue to perfect the advancement ritual and find out the pattern within. Only then would he be able to successfully open up the path to becoming a Saint.

The official profession with complete pathways were all obtained through this method.

One could imagine how many powerful Level 9 profession would die in this process.

And these dead Level 9 profession might give birth to Life Jewels.

To be more precise, only Level 9 profession who were closest to the saint level could produce a Life Bead.

Life Beads were the fusion of Saint Rules and extraordinary characteristics. They had various special effects.

Each Life Pearl was a saint when it was alive.

Thus, this item was rare and precious. Even the officials with a deep foundation did not have much reserves.

No one had expected the Type 4 Puppet to have a Life Jewel in its hand.

Even if he could not fully unleash the power of his Life Bead, he could still heavily injure a Tier 4 deacon.

Honestly speaking, it was fortunate that Xu Liushuang was the one standing at the scene.

If it was Zhao Shouzhuo or any other Tier 4 player, they would definitely die on the spot.

After the battle, Xu Liushuang was urgently sent away for treatment.

To be able to treat such injuries, one had to be a high-level healing profession.

The other participants also packed up and went home.

Some were resting, some were recuperating.

As for the rest of the cleaning up, it was left to Wei Peidong and his team.

Looking back, this operation was really a huge loss.

Not to mention that so many Trascendent had died.

In the end, they only managed to kill many of the puppets, not even finding a single strand of hair on the Puppet Master.

However, some things could not be calculated according to profit and loss.

Just like this time, although they did not find the Puppet Master and lost a lot of manpower, they were still able to find the Puppet Master.

However, in the eyes of many people, as long as they cleaned up the fragments of the Origin World and extinguished the risk of the fragments descending into the main world.

Then all of this was worth it.

Otherwise, when the fragment really arrived in the main world, who knew how many people in Tianmu City would die.

A series of images flashed through Su Mo’s mind.

It was Coco Lin, the campus belle who had been replaced by the fox demon.

They were ordinary citizens whose hearts had been dug out.

It was an empty village in the Lesser Cang Mountain.

It was the leader of the Dongfang team, Chen Rong, who had fallen in the crack.

They were Sun Lie and Wu Linfeng, whom he had personally killed.

It was the entire Zhenwu Squad that was being controlled.

..

Su Mo slowly opened his eyes.

A look of determination appeared in his eyes.

No matter what.

Becoming stronger was always the eternal theme.

Only by becoming stronger could he protect himself, protect the people close to him, and protect the world.

Compared to those ordinary Trascendent, he had an advantage that ordinary people could not hope to achieve.

Therefore, he should display his advantage and turn it into his own strength.

Su Mo looked up at his game interface.

In the virtual interface, the lifespan in the upper right corner had reached 878.

Although this trip to the Origin World Fragment was not a small risk, the final harvest was not bad.

He had a total of 800 lifespan points. Even if he were to kill fox demons of the same level, he would have to kill about 80 of them.

Not to mention that there were so many fox demons that it was impossible for them to line up for him to kill.

‘It’s a pity that the Origin World fragment disintegrated too early. Otherwise, when I carefully searched inside, I would definitely be able to find the gathering places of other demons.”

“At that time, not to mention 800 yuan, I might even be able to save up 8,000 yuan!”

Su Mo felt quite regretful about this.

However, he also knew that he could not be too greedy.

It was already a lot to save 800.

At the very least, he was one step closer to his goal of reaching Tier 5.

When he entered the border in the future, he would probably earn hundreds of thousands or millions of lifespan points.

This slow earning speed was just the last darkness before dawn.

After crossing it, one could see the light.

Su Mo took a deep breath.

A thought flashed through his mind.

The familiar mysterious starry sky immediately appeared in his vision.
