He walked around this shabby Demon King's Castle again, and after finding that no new tasks were triggered, he chose to exit the copy.
In the blink of an eye, he was back to the original bungalow.
I looked at the time and it was now 5:50 in the morning.
The system prompt sounds:
[Complete the first stage of "The Devil and the Brave" and obtain Su Lin's special ability "Confusion". ]
[Confuse: You can use this skill on any NPC in Praia to make him believe your words. Each use will deduct resource points, and the number of resource points used is directly related to the strength of the confused object.]
[Current resource points: 600 points]
…
Resource points can actually still be used in reality?
He closed the interface, slept for two hours, and left the room at eight in the morning.
At eight o'clock in the morning, the channel chat in the lower left corner had already started to get lively. Players began to complain about the night underworld, and some had already noticed him, the new S-level Soul Hunter.
[Blanche (Ox Star): Did anyone participate in the Flower Street "blockade" operation last night? I am a member of Team 8. ]
[Bill (Weiya Back Garden): Team 12 is looking for detective teammates who can understand what people say. No slackers. We guarantee you will be there overnight. Anyone who meets the requirements, come! ]
[Mo Qing (Jianmen): Yes. I’m from Team 7.]
[Xize (World Tree Guild): What about the S-level soul hunter? I saw it too, the one who came down from the Red Building, right?]
[Collier (unaffiliated): Everyone, remember to stay away from that S-class Soul Hunter! He was a member of the original Arte who was abandoned by the lifeboat. He is definitely not a serious Soul Hunter. If you meet him, please stay away from him immediately.]
[He Jiaming (Yellow River System): If it's S-level, it should be an NPC. NPCs are different from players. Generally speaking, they won't attack us casually. As long as we don't provoke them...]
This group of players were chatting and saying "don't get close to him".
He was not worried that the people on the Art would recognize him. The test stone was of no use to him. As long as he was confirmed as a "human", he would be invincible.
He walked to the door and smelled a faint scent of blood.
This is Praia’s daily routine. Whenever the morning light falls and the night fades away, there is always a faint scent of blood by the river.
The morning light shone on his face, he squinted his eyes, and saw the Soul Hunters walking through the street with wounds all over their bodies, welcoming the flowers given by the residents.
The residents had great respect for the hero who protected them. He even saw an enthusiastic middle-aged woman pulling Soul Hunter to introduce her daughter.
He was standing here, and a voice came from the side.
"Good morning, young man."
He turned around and saw the white-haired old lady from the neighbor's house drying salted fish.
There was a thin layer of skin on the back of her hands and black mud between her nails. She looked like a person who was used to working.
Her face was weather-beaten, with fine wrinkles covering her thin skin. A pair of somewhat cloudy eyes were looking at him with a kind smile.
"Hello, grandma." Su Mingan said.
"Hey." The old lady responded, and the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes became more intense as she smiled.
She spread out the blackened cloth in her hand to let the sunlight shine through it smoothly, and with her hunched back hunched, she picked out the fish in her hand.
"Looking at you, you must have not slept well last night," said the old lady.
"Is it obvious?"
"Your eyes are dark and your complexion is not good." The old lady pointed her finger at her face and said, "Pay attention to your sleep, young man. Although outsiders may be afraid to sleep on their first day in Praia, the Soul Hunters are here, so don't worry."
Su Mingan glanced at the system mirror and his expression was not very good.
He was definitely awake during the side quest at night, and two hours of sleep was not enough to sustain the energy he consumed in the day.
He looked at the Soul Hunters returning along the river and the street; their expressions were similar to his.
...After all, they are all people who haven't slept all night.
"Soul Hunters are handsome, aren't they?" The old lady smiled and said, "If you become a Soul Hunter, you will have a bright future. Your family conditions... and the people you can date... will be much better."
Since Su Mingan did not go out in the middle of the night, the old lady thought he was just a traveler.
"Yeah." Su Mingan nodded.
The old lady was very talkative. When the topic of soul hunting came up, she chatted with him for a long time, all of which were about her wonderful experiences in Praia Soul Hunting.
The hundred-man roundup in the west district, the defense of the royal city in the north district, the handsome soul hunter leader in the central city, whose child became a soul hunter and brought honor to the family...all the history of Praia, big and small, was recounted by her.
According to the old lady, becoming a soul hunter, especially a frontline soul hunter fighting on the front line at night, is a matter equivalent to the ancestors' smoke rising.
Even if they may easily sacrifice or die, they will bring a considerable amount of wealth to the family which is not wealthy to begin with, and the family will be cared for and respected by the people around them in the future.
After talking about a lot of honors for the Soul Hunter, the old lady took a breath and shook her hands.
"Young man, I've said so much." She wiped her hands on her apron and looked at him: "You are the descendant of Master Su Lin, do you want to become a soul hunter?"
"I do." Su Mingan said.
...After all, he has become.
Hearing his answer, the old lady sighed.
"...I just told you so much. It's true that old people talk a lot. When I meet a young man from outside, I can't hold back."
"But the old lady has been watching over this for so many years, and she really doesn't want any child to become a soul hunter...even if it is something worth celebrating."
