“Oh my, I am so damn hungry, but I don’t have the money to eat. Chef Fang’s food is so expensive…”
The great green insect was holding its belly and flying up and down inside the Spirit King Cave.
Elder Gui Er was following it and said cautiously, “If you don’t mind, I still have some savings.”
The great green insect initially felt excited by said, “No way. Green dragon said before. I must find a way to earn for my living. I cannot ask for your money.”
The innocent Chong Daqing had no idea that the Sir System who thought was thinking it could borrow some money from Richman Fang.
Gui Er said, “You already did all the possible missions with high reward distributed by the Truth Department. The Venerable Dragon God was the one handling all the monsters that were causing trouble in China. Previously they still had some missions like that, but no longer now. I heard that his butler Zheng would personally report the progress of the Venerable one and gather those rewards.”
The great green insect said curiously, “Ugh, how did the great green dragon find out about those monsters?”
Gui Er replied after thinking, “The Venerable one has two dogs in his house. I heard they were the descendants of the Earthly Hound Clan from the Upper Realm.”
The great green insect said, “Oh, those two were responsible in helping him gather information… I saw them before when I was on the mission to save that pig with the great green dragon. I don’t know why but after we saved that pig, I was brought back here by father. I used to have one such dog in my old house, and I didn’t have the chance to say hi to them.
“Then what should we do now? Elder Er, hurry up and think of something that I can do to get more money. How about I go busking?”
Gui Er was terrified by its suggestion, ‘I wonder how much trouble you are going to cause with your singing.’
He thought about a mission, but he was hesitating whether to tell it or not.
However, as the great green insect started bugging him he said, “There’s a mission that was uploaded for a while now. It has a great reward and it is renewable, but the Venerable Dragon God never took that mission.”
“Hurry up and say it,” the great green insect got excited, “I will show the Venerable Dragon God that I can finish a mission that he never had the courage to accept.”
Gui Er replied immediately, “Well when Japan was covered by a mist last year, the Truth Department posted a probing mission. However, that mission had a weird restriction. It only allows female participants… This mission was on the board for a very long time. According to my sources, the mission will reward at least 100,000 and a maximum of 100,000,000. It has no limit on the number of people and number of times the mission is taken, but there are very little people who managed to complete the mission, and their information is pretty much useless.”
The great green insect smacked its chest and said, “I will have no problem completing it. Hurry up and accept it, we will leave immediately.”
Gui Er said, “I am sorry, but I’m a guy, so I don’t think I can follow you on this mission.”
The great green insect replied quickly, “Then change yourself to become a girl…”
Gui Er was shocked. He initially was hesitant to talk about this mission because he knew it was going to ask him to do that.
He immediately asked, “I wonder what kind of weird technique allows gender manipulation?”
The great green insect replied, “Elder Er is very clever. You are correct. The Upper Realm has a Great Reversal of Heaven and Earth Technique which can change one’s gender.”
Gui Er asked, “Then do you know how to do that?”
The great green insect stopped for a moment and shook its head, “I don’t know, but the great green dragon might…”
Gui Er was feeling relaxed when he heard the first part of the sentence, but immediately got worried after the great green insect finished talking.
“Wait while I ask him…” The great green insect lifted one of its legs that was wearing a space ring given to him by his father.
The next moment a phone appeared in midair with Vigilante A’s number on its screen. The number was given by Zhu Hongying.
Fang Ning was playing his game when he received a WeChat message from the great green insect. “Sex-reversal spell? What kind of technique is this?” he asked the Sir System.
Sir System was surprised, “I don’t know, but from the name of the technique, this might be some crazily overpowered technique that can overturn the world? Help me find out what is it. If we can master it, we will become even stronger. This Chong Daqing descended from the Upper Realm, so the techniques that it remembers must be special.”
Fang Ning replied Chong Daqing, “I have no idea, but I can help you ask my friends.”
…
“I never guessed that Sister Zhu was so kind. She’s willing to lend me her great treasure.” The great green insect said joyfully while hugging the white jade pig sculpture.
Gui Er was scared until his face turned green… He thought that no one would be able to perform such a technique, but he never realized that something that cannot be done by a person could still be performed using a treasure.
Luckily, he was wearing a mask, and no one noticed his face.
He thought of an idea while panicking.
“Oh, by the way, Lord Insect Prime, this is a probing mission. I really can’t help much. However, among us, there’s one person who is suitable for such a mission. He has a special ability when it comes to traveling long distance without using any energy. Besides, if something happens that drains all your vitality, he can regain his energy just by eating.”
Shifting his trouble to the others…
Gui Er was not a good person, he was forced to become one.
At that moment, the person Gui Er was talking about, Lu Er, was sitting with Ma Da and Niu Si.
The three brothers were drinking and feasting in the Spirit King Cave.
The table was filled with food and wine, but they were almost finished.
“Come, drink it all!”
“Very good. We finally reunite, but unfortunately, our sister can longer drink and feast with us,” Ma Da said.
Lu Er tried to comfort him, “Don’t worry about it. Our sister finally got what she wished for, and we should congratulate her.”
Ma Da nodded, “That is correct. It’s just that everyone in the Association of Spirit King is a small or big ghost, and there’s not a single normal looking girl. Lu Er, I remembered that time you were trying to ask our sister out and got a beating before you decided to become the leader. Is that right, Niu Si?”
The three of them started talking nonsense after drinking too much. They were calling Zhu Hongying using her previous name instead of addressing her as an elder sister.
Niu Si just nodded while biting on a bone.
Lu Er’s face turned red and said, “When did this happen? You must have remembered wrongly.”
“Fine, fine. Let’s not talk about this,” Ma Da stopped bringing up the past and continued saying, “brothers for life. We are now part of the association, so we can consider ourselves as successful in our career. The next thing we should think about is having our own family. Do you two need me to introduce you guys some girls?”
Niu Er got excited while Lu Er immediately rejected his offer, “I am trying to become a God so I have no intention of forming a family.”
Ma Da laughed and pointed at him with a chicken bone while talking to Niu Si, “Niu Si, listen to him. This guy must still be thinking about our sister. You are planning to become a God to be with her, right?”
Lu Er replied, “Brother, stop talking about me. You should also stop being so playful and start to train harder. You should stop thinking about fooling around.”
Ma Da laughed and said, “Are you still a virgin? Do you need my help…?”
Lu Er quickly stopped him, “What are you saying. Our sister is the law-enforcer in our association. We will ruin our reputation if we do such a thing.”
Ma Da was drunk. He said, “Nothing to worry about. Why must we be afraid when what we are doing is common. We are not doing something bad.”
Lu Er looked interested, “Leader Ma, really nothing to worry about?”
At that moment, Niu Si, who was busy biting on the bones and never said a word, suddenly placed the bone down and looked at the entrance before saying softly, “Elder sister is here.”
Zhu Hongying was standing at the entrance with a straight face. Behind her was Elder Gui Er.
“I was stupid to have helped you guys!” Zhu Hongying was staring at them angrily and yelled, “You guys just entered the association for a while and already you have shown your true colors and are not working hard to improve yourself. A bunch of rubbish! Ma Da, Lu Er, get over here and follow Elder Gui Er. He has a mission for you two.”
Ma Da woke up immediately and felt uneasy, ‘What mission is that? Must be a punishment for me. Hopefully, Elder Gui Er can let me off the hook.’
Lu Er looked sad, ‘I never agreed to him, why must I suffer as well?’
Half an hour later, Niu Si noticed something. Lu Er and Ma Da had already left, but two girls came over after. The two girls looked okay, but they looked a little similar to his brothers…
“I’ve never heard my brothers mention having sisters before?” He stood up and scratch his head and said with a smile, “Come here and have a seat. My name is Niu Si, the youngest of the group. You two can just call me Brother Niu.”
Ma Da slapped him and said, “What the! What the hell are you doing you stupid cow? I am your elder brother! He is Lu Er!”
Niu Er heard the familiar sentence and laughed awkwardly before saying, “I am so sorry, my brothers. I looked wrong. You two changed so much I couldn’t tell.”
Ma Da said with a sad face, “Who knew there’s such a heartless technique in this world! I have no idea when our sister will cool down and ask Lord Insect Prime to change us back…”
Lu Er was feeling even worse, “I am more unlucky. I should’ve been fine but just because I replied once, I have the same fate as you leader Ma. Where is my honor now?”
Niu Si was fortunate, “Luckily I am honest. Honest people will never be treated too badly.”
…
Inside the System Space.
Fang Ning was also very fortunate, “Such a scary and heartless technique.”
Sir System replied, “Stupid. Who would create such a technique? I still thought it was something powerful. Wasting my time.”
Fang Ning replied helplessly, “Well, from another perspective this is a powerful technique. Basically, I am very afraid of things like this.”
Fang Ning lost his mood and stopped playing his game after that.
He realized that he was not afraid of Sir System, who was at the peak of Pond-level and could easily destroy the spirit bear. He found out that there was a lot more crazy things that could happen in the world that made him lose his mood…
He first read a horror novel, and then heard about such heartless technique.
What if one day someone casted the spell on him and he was no longer a guy, he would be devastated…
‘I should just focus on my game and not get involved in anything else…’
He slowly asked, “Sir, do you have anything that can resist such a technique?”
The System replied, “I can resist it easily, but you might not be… That technique had some sort of restrictions in it. It disregarded the target’s power level, and the success and failure depended completely on the person’s ability to resist. This technique is scary because of that.”
Fang Ning slapped his head and said, “I am right to be worried about this. Fine, I shall stop my game and think about how to retaliate such an evil technique.”
The System replied, “Ugh, what’s so scary about that technique? Why are you so afraid of it? It is very rare for you to stop your game and work for me…”
Fang Ning ignored the stupid System.
He immediately went and search for Anderson, and interrogated the prisoners inside his penitentiary.
‘I must find the best way to plug this hole. This technique is so shameless I cannot take it.
‘Luckily this technique is in the hand of our ally, so they will not use it on Vigilante A.
‘However, if the enemy also had similar techniques, it will be crazy to think that they can shame you till your death if they fail to beat you…’
After gathering all the information, he came to a conclusion. The evil technique can be repelled with either a treasure or by improving the resistance of one’s body.
He was actually finding for a solution when he already had the best…
The Dragonization Ability and the Atmospheric Morality Technique were the best techniques to be used against that!
The dragon body already had a high resistance. With more training and evolution it will naturally be resistant towards that technique.
Plus, a body filled with morality will also be resistance towards evil techniques.
“Looks like the easiest way is to ask Sir System gather more Experience Points and improve these two techniques. The Draconic Arcane Realm will take a while to be completed, yet China only has weaker monsters. I need to find a way to speed that process up,” Fang Ning talked to himself before remembering something. His eyes widen and he felt enlightened.
