Chapter 38 Wild Hunt
"This character's mechanics are really fun."
Thinking of this, Ji Minghuan reached out and touched the "ring-shaped chessboard" surrounding him.
Then the "king", "queen", "soldiers" and "artillery carts" in the office all turned into a beam of light, converged to his side, and merged into the black and white loop.
They turned back into quiet chess pieces, slowly rotating around his body.
Ji Minghuan silently took Tianqu back into his body, and everything returned to normal.
The office was quiet at this time. The pungent smell of blood and the smell of some foreign object being burned could still be faintly smelled. The body of the "working devil" was slowly turning into a fluorescent light and dissipating. Even the blood gurgling on the ground became transparent.
Ji Minghuan looked at the corpse on the ground, then turned around and looked at the three people from the brigade sitting in the corner of the office.
He asked, "So am I eligible to join the group?"
Anluns and Robert looked at each other, and Ayase Origami had a blank expression on her face.
"I vote for him." Ayase Origami said coldly, "Very interesting SkyDrive."
"I find it interesting, too." An Lun Si shrugged. "I've never seen an exorcist like this before. After all, this is an ability that the captain is interested in, so I'll vote for him, too."
Robert thought for a moment and said in a low robotic voice, "Even if his abilities have great potential for development, he is still very weak now. If he stays with us... he will probably die." He paused and said, "Forget it... Anyway, there are already two votes. It doesn't matter whether I vote or not."
An Lunsi patted his shoulder and said jokingly: "If we don't let him join the group, he will die anyway, right?"
"Why?"
"The leader said that if we are not satisfied, we can just kill him."
"That's what you said." Robert said lightly.
"In short, it's two to zero, and the new member has officially joined the team." Ayase Origami stood up from the corner, slowly walked towards Ji Minghuan, and then reached out to touch the cuffs of her kimono, "This is a gift from the captain."
"Gift?"
"Yes, a gift." Ayase Origami said, her voice cold.
The next moment, Ayase Origami took out a pitch-black crow from her ochre-red sleeves. The crow spread its wings, flew towards Ji Minghuan, and landed on the back of his hand.
"For the sign of joining the group, choose any position you like." She said, "Mine is the shoulder."
As she spoke, she lowered her eyes and pulled open a corner of her ochre-red kimono, revealing part of the crow tattoo on her shoulder.
Ji Minghuan stared at the crow tattoo on the girl's shoulder, not quite understanding what she was saying. He thought about it and threw out an answer at random:
"The back of your hand?"
Just as he finished speaking, the crow suddenly expanded as if under the high temperature, twisted, deformed, and then melted, falling onto the back of Ji Minghuan's hand like a pool of black water.
The black feathers turned into a crow-like pattern, tattooed on the back of Ji Minghuan's hand;
The scarlet eyes turned into a number in the middle of the pattern - "12".
The white bones turned into two straight lines, drawing a cross on the pattern.
"Welcome, our member number 12." An Lunsi smiled, "Now the last vacancy is filled."
He hugged Ji Minghuan's shoulders and reminded him, "The other members of the group don't have as good tempers as us. You have to be careful when dealing with them."
Ji Minghuan nodded and stared quietly at the crow tattoo on the back of his hand.
At this time, a task prompt popped up in front of me.
[Completed the main mission 1: Arrived at the meeting place and successfully passed the entrance examination of the "White Crow Brigade".]
[Task rewards obtained: 1 skill point, 1 split point, 1 attribute point]
[Main Mission 1 has been updated: Join the White Crow Brigade in the "Tokyo Underground Auction" robbery on July 21 and survive the operation.]
"Robbery of an auction?" Ji Minghuan thought, "It doesn't sound too dangerous. There shouldn't be anyone in Japan who can stop the brigade. I can just follow along."
An Lunsi smiled and said, "It's almost time to leave. The other members haven't arrived in Tokyo yet, so let's go have a meal first and then disband for the time being."
"Eat." Ayase Origami said calmly, "I'm hungry."
"Let's go... I happened to leave a portal to the ramen restaurant last time." Robert said.
"What are you still standing there for, No. 12?" An Luns said as he passed by Ji Minghuan.
The four of them set out to return to the abandoned corridor they had just walked through. Ji Minghuan kept his expressionless look and followed them silently.
He lowered his eyes and called up the [Character Exclusive Development] panel.
[This character's exclusive training system is the "Wild Hunt Winter System." ]
[The core rule of the "Wild Hunt Winter System" is: when you kill enough "demons" and "superhumans", you can get rewards through the training system. ]
[Current progress is - Training Task 1: Kill any "demon" above level C, or a "superhuman" above level C (reward: 1 attribute point) (task progress is "the total number of demons and superhumans killed")]
[Detected that "Training Task 1" has been completed, reward: 1 attribute point]
[Progressed to Training Mission 2: Kill any 10 "Demons" above Level C, or 10 "Superhumans" above Level C (Reward: 1 Attribute Point)]
"This is easy. Just follow the brigade and kill them. They are just a bunch of lunatics anyway." Ji Minghuan thought to himself, closed the training panel, and instead called up the character's personal panel.
[Name: Xia Pingzhou (rare character)]
[Age: 19]
[Current nickname: None (too little known in the real world, not yet prominent)]
"Soon, this nickname will probably be updated to 'Member No. 12 of the White Crow Brigade'." Ji Minghuan thought.
[Strength: D-level (adding this attribute can improve your overall physical fitness)]
[Speed: C++ level (adding this attribute can improve your nerve reaction speed and the speed of the "chess piece")]
[Spirit: C++ level (adding this attribute can enhance your spiritual power and the power of the "chess piece")]
[Attribute points held: 2]
[Split points held: 1]
[Skill points held: 1]
"Looking back at the skill tree... the attribute points are not difficult to divide. This is a 'summoner' type character. 'Strength' is not needed. Just 'Speed' and 'Spirit' will be enough."
Following this idea, Ji Minghuan quickly allocated the two attribute points he had just obtained.
[The "Speed" attribute of the second game character "Xia Ping Zhou" has changed from C++ level to B level]
[The "Spirit" attribute of the second game character "Xia Pingzhou" has changed: C++ level → B level]
Then he closed the panel, and at this moment, footsteps suddenly came from the office behind him.
The three members of the brigade who were talking and laughing beside him turned their heads and glanced at the office out of the corner of their eyes.
A mixed-race girl wearing a deerstalker hat and a khaki windbreaker walked slowly into the office entrance, her leather boots making clattering footsteps.
Next to her was a girl wearing a green sports T-shirt and with short medium-length hair.
Ji Minghuan was the last one among the group members to turn around, but when he caught a glimpse of the two figures at the entrance, he was slightly stunned.
"Sister?" He raised an eyebrow and thought, "And...her exorcist teacher is also here."
Dozens of meters away, he, Ke Qirui and Su Zimai looked at each other.
"It seems that there are other guests here besides us," said Robert.
"Kill them?" Ayase Origami asked expressionlessly.
"Well... there's nothing we can do if we're seen." An Luns said, "Just kill him."
