Astral Apostle - Chapter 106

Chapter 106: Clearance Techniques; Broken Promise (2)

With power, he could not lose control of his desires and commit evil. That was the most despicable thing. He was calm and still wanted to follow the law as much as possible and do some business in the light.

“Forget it, I haven’t even registered yet. After I register, the Supers Bureau will definitely guide me. Only then will I truly enter the social circle of Supers. I’ll consider it carefully then.”

Zhou Jing did not hesitate. He would go for the superpower test during this period of time, so he did not have to think too much.

However, no matter what job he took on, focusing on developing his Astral Projection Rank and Travel Interface was a must.

“It wasn’t easy for me to obtain supernatural powers, so I’ll try my best to become stronger.” Zhou Jing thought to himself.

Currently, his main body only carried the [Mutant Blood Warrior] system. He had to consume the Mutant Blood Potion to improve, so his main body could not level up on its own. At this moment, he could only rely on his Apostles.

Of course, even if his main body could rank up, the risks had to be considered.

Instead, it was safer to let the Astral Apostle bear the risk of strengthening his blood and then transfer his power to his main body. This was the best way.

For now, if he wanted to strengthen the superpower system of his main body, the Mutant Blood Warrior, he just had to rely on Jason drinking more of the Mutant Blood Potion. This way, the upper limit of his superpower could be widened.

This way, he did not have to worry about the upgrade of the [Mutant Blood Warrior] system.

“That’s good too.”

Zhou Jing nodded to himself. Although he had to spend another portion of resources to convert his strength, the benefits were even more obvious.

As for some technical and knowledge-based things, such as saber techniques and hunter breathing techniques, his main body was not restricted in learning about them.

However, in terms of efficiency, it was better to train with an apostle who had a time difference. Furthermore, with the help of the Accelerated Learning function, the advantage was huge.

“However, I still have to train my body to familiarize myself with the feeling. Moreover, with the memories I’ve learned once, even if I don’t speed up my cultivation, it shouldn’t be too slow. If my skills level up, I can save on some conversion fees.”

Zhou Jing pondered for a while before taking out his phone and looking at the time.

…

Today was July 27th. The next time he traveled would be in August.

“I have an appointment with the Immigration Bureau tomorrow. I have to go back.”

Zhou Jing thought of this.

He did not care about this visit, to begin with. He decided to go through the motions before registering at the Supernatural Bureau in two days.

The cooldown time for this teleportation was not short. He was more concerned about the changes in the Mutant World.

“I don’t know anything about that buzz cut man, but Lutt does. Anyway, I didn’t kill him. The next time I go back, I’ll have someone alive to interrogate.”

Zhou Jing stroked his chin. He still wanted to check on the situation of the life form from the alternate dimensions. Lutt seemed to be the only clue at the moment.

At present, he could basically conclude that the lord had attacked him because he had also dabbled in the corruption of potions… Perhaps the so-called “drug corruption” was just an excuse. There was a mix of truth and falsehood, and there was something else going on.

It was a good thing that he could send Jason back next time to capture Lutt and ask him about it… It turned out to be a blessing in disguise that he did not have the strength to kill the lord before he died.

… This was provided Lutt wasn’t torn apart by the other hunters the next time he returned.

However, other than himself, the other hunters wouldn’t point their blades at humans and slash at the lords.

“With Jason dead, the other hunters will probably spread the news to Frostwood Village and let Barong know. With the information Barong has, he will definitely suspect that my death is related to the discovery of the drug corruption, so he will definitely be wary of the lord.

On the other hand, I killed all of the lord’s guards. Lutt can use less power now, so he probably won’t dare to act rashly under the attention of so many hunters. Therefore, there’s a high chance that he won’t dare to do anything radical… In that case, it’s fine even if I won’t be able to travel back for the time being.”

Zhou Jing pondered for a while and realized that his death in battle was quite useful.

Since he made a big deal out of it, it would make Lutt hesitate to take action.

What would happen later depended on the hunters’ reaction… Unfortunately, it was not convenient for him to meet with them again.

Zhou Jing rubbed his temples helplessly.

Jason was already dead in their eyes. Even if he was deployed again, it was unlikely that Zhou Jing would return to the village. This was because it was difficult to explain why he had come back from the dead in front of everyone.

This was probably not a surprise but a shock.

It was better to let Jason remain dead in their hearts.

This was to prevent the group of hunters from thinking that he had come back to life. They might end up stuffing him back into the grave.

At this moment, Zhou Jing could not help but think of Barong.

He was more concerned and worried about this guide and teacher of his.

“When Barong finds out about my death, I wonder what will happen… Unfortunately, I’ll have to break the promise.”

Zhou Jing sighed.

…

Mutant World, Frostwood Village.

The sky turned bright. It was another clear morning.

Barong slouched out of the house.

The grain collection team returned yesterday. Although they had “lost” a few people, they still had to transport the food. Therefore, they did not wait and returned on their own. They did not suspect anything.

Without the temporary supply team, the village returned to its usual tranquility.

Barong strolled through the village, greeting the passing villagers from time to time like a idler who had nothing to do.

After walking for a while, he bumped into the anxious village chief.

When the village chief saw Barong, he went up and asked anxiously.

“Captain Barong, have you seen the witch doctor Gamma in the past two days?”

“No, what about him?” Barong’s expression did not change.

“Yesterday, a villager went to find him for treatment and found that his house was empty. I don’t know where he went. Today, the villager went again and found that Gamma was still not there…”
