In his spiritual body state, Su Lu was especially sensitive to the Spirit World.
At this point, dawn had arrived, bringing with it a bright and warm glow to the earth and sky.
However, in the direction of the canyon, a dense darkness seemed to envelop everything, emanating an eerie aura that was absolutely terrifying.
Previously, he had been somewhat puzzled as to where the leader of the team, Gered, had gone?
If this master level occupational person was present, or if there was a third-order professional person leading, such as the assassin Ali, they would never have allowed the pursuers to be so embarrassed.
Now, he finally had an answer.
— The other party was dealing with the Evil Spirit Knight! A ferocious spiritual body that had crossed the Spirit World to chase them!
“Such pressure… it’s truly terrifying!”
Feeling his inspiration instinctively shrink back in fear, it was proof that the other party’s rank far exceeded his own, and Su Lu couldn’t help but exclaim.
This Evil Spirit Knight seemed to be no less inferior to the evil spirit in the ancient mansion!
‘And… the other party had honed in on Gered’s gang, their target was clear… This fits the pattern of the cursed spirit, so it means it’s an undying cursed spirit?’
This kind of brutal and terrifying spiritual body that wouldn’t dissipate was truly terrifying!
“That is the nightmare of Gered’s gang…the vengeful evil spirit of the Gaosuo people! ”
Zoren came to Su Lu’s side, his voice coming through his mask slightly muffled and hoarse.
“I know…”
Su Lu sized up this master-level occupational person before him.
If it was said that expert-level occupational people chose a certain professional field, the master-level continuously dug deeper.
At this time, he could sense that Zoren had formed a harmonious resonance with the darkness around him, which would result in him gaining a certain amount of strength at night.
“Gered plans to enter the city this time, he wants to lure that evil spirit into Charles City, and use the power of the church and the federation to eliminate it…”
Zoren said in a deep voice: “I will not allow him to act recklessly like this.” Su Lu fell silent.
As far as he knew, this Zoren often distributed the loot to the poor, which gave him a good reputation among the lower classes in Kangni State.
It seemed now that he was indeed a righteous person.
If Gered were to bring the evil spirit into the city, it was uncertain what chain reactions and casualties would be caused.
So, he specifically came to stop this, perhaps also with the intention to eliminate this notorious gang.
Su Lu thought, it was a pity that Zoren didn’t become a bounty hunter.
“Is there anything I can help with?” Su Lu asked, “that vengeful spirit… does it have any behavioral patterns?”
“It strikes approximately every three days… only harvesting a certain number of lives every time… the target is quite clear, it’s a cursed spirit!”
Zoren clearly knew a lot of intelligence: “But… if innocent people get caught up in it, it won’t show mercy.”
“So, we’re at the three-day deadline again?”
Su Lu looked at the canyon: “Gered is desperately resisting… As long as the vengeful spirit is satisfied, can this attack be fumbled through?”
The Cursed Spirit only needed to harvest a certain number of lives to be satisfied, Gered could completely survive until now by sacrificing the lives of other bandits.
Of course, as his men continued to diminish and disappear, one day, it would be his turn!
“That’s right… those people just now, they weren’t so much trying to pursue me, as they were looking for an excuse to run, look…”
Zoren pointed at the scattered bandits.
Upon discovering that the canyon was covered in darkness, they let out a cry of fright and had no intention of going back, choosing to scatter in all directions.
“First eliminate the periphery, then go to the canyon!”
Su Lu had no intention of directly facing a fourth-level master-level occupational person, so he chased after a lone cowboy.
“Such a freely acting spiritual body that is not a [Necromancer]… interesting!”
Zoren watched his flickering silhouette and smiled, his steed automatically heading in a different direction.
By the time the sun began to rise, Su Lu had completed his final hunt.
He glanced at his attribute column, and an exciting value of experience points surfaced:
[XP:1300]
“The experience point reserve is finally replenished… In the outer world, if you want to gain experience, you have to keep killing…”
Su Lu sighed, his gaze passing over some skills and passives one by one.
With these terrifying experience points, most skills could be leveled up, but no, he had to save them for the [Odd Technician] job requirement.
“Huh?”
A few seconds later, he focused his gaze on [Soul Trance LV4].
As the main skill of the [Spirit Medium] career path, he had spent a lot of experience on it, and it did not disappoint him, as the ability to wander the Spirit World brought Su Lu a lot of convenience and help.
But at this time, even 1300 experience points couldn’t make it budge!
“Even if skill leveling gets harder and harder, breaking through Soul Trance to LV5 would only require 1200 experience points, so it seems that other prerequisites are unmet, right? Like profession?”
Like Creation of Dead Princess, the first skill he acquired, to level up, the prerequisite required the [Doomsayer] profession.
If not, no matter how much experience he gained, it wouldn’t be able to push through.
To level up Soul Trance again, the prerequisite might be the third-order [Odd Technician]!
“After all, if it levels up again, I might break into the third layer of the Spirit World… The capabilities of [Mystical Scholar] aren’t enough… To be honest, with my current rank, it’s a bit of a stretch in the second layer.”
Su Lu looked at abilities like Magic Potion Making and so on.
Obviously, the fact that he could forcibly acquire these skills was thanks to the magic of the attribute column.
But if he wanted to raise them to a higher level later, most likely, there would be specific job requirements, this was the rule of this world!
“So… investing too much in skills that are not from the original career line is a bit of a thankless task… But they’re still quite useful at a low level…” Su Lu felt that he had a better understanding of the attribute column.
Clip-clop!
At this moment, a black steed came to him, looking at him with bright eyes.
This horse seemed able to see spiritual bodies!
“This is Black Rose… my old buddy, I wanted to raise it into a transcendent species, but I failed!”
Zoren, who had also finished his hunt, sighed, looking at Su Lu.
He had heard about this kid’s deeds from Geli earlier, and now it seemed that he was a good boy filled with a sense of justice.
“Next… you’d better leave, the remaining battle is too dangerous!” Zoren looked at the canyon again.
The darkness had dissipated, obviously, the Cursed Spirit had left.
And there was no doubt that now was the best time to kill Gered!
Even if he used the lives of his men as a shield, he would undoubtedly be attacked and would not be in his prime state!
Su Lu also sensed this and was somewhat torn.
That was where the big experience points were, should he go or not?
