Chapter 105: Chapter 105 – Meeting the Earth Elf Again

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

When Ren Suo awoke the next day, he realized that he had fallen asleep on the keyboard of his laptop.

How unhealthy.

Ren Suo subconsciously looked at the time on his mobile phone and realized that Yu Kuangtu had sent him a message:

“Amazing, you guessed it correctly! I was right to have chosen you! I will report your achievement to the superiors!”

Eh?

Ren Suo leaned back on the chair as he stretched his muscles, then he realized what Yu Kuangtu’s message implied.

He opened up the GiliGili website and indeed, Naisser_Ren had uploaded a new video!

“Holy Priest: Survival Battle Part 2”.

Ren Suo clicked into the video and this time, there was no introduction by the Master of the Holy Light, the Ruler of the Wind, Rain, and Snow, or the Heart of Everlasting Warmth. It jumped straight to the point.

The perspective was one that Ren Suo was familiar with—that of Zhao Zili.

Of course, the game character looked very different from the real person. The facial features of the fat trainees were elongated and less clear, although their clothes were similar.

On the top right corner of the screen was the trainee number of Zhao Zili: No. 98.

Subsequently, it was naturally Zhao Zili’s time to shine as the process when he attained victory easily was shown. The entire video was 65 minutes long. After Zhao Zili emerged victoriously, the full sequence of him accepting the coronation of the three gods was shown.

“My surname is Zhao, I am Zhao Zili!” Zhao Zili said.

The immortals replied, “Great, we have bestowed you with the treasures of the Holy Light. You need to abide by the 36 Precepts, emanating the Glorious Light of us Immortals as you traverse the world and extend our blessings!”

“Zhao Zili, from here on, you will be our Executor and hold the authority to control life in your hands!”

The screen was frozen amidst a glorious white light.

Then a dark screen appeared, and an announcement by “Naisser_Ren” in eight languages was shown:

“The first round of the lucky draw event has ended. Those who guessed correctly need not be bothered about the lucky draw and no details of the lucky draw winner is required. However, if you are the lucky winner, our Executor would find you and give you the lovely Recovery Set.”

… Why did the announcement sound something like “Do not worry after you have invested in Bitcoin, just wait for a few years and sell them when you see that the value of Bitcoin has risen on television. If you are not notified on television that its value has risen, just assume you have lost your investment.”

Nonetheless, neither Ren Suo nor his family members were ill or in pain, and they were not fat either. He was naturally not interested in the Recovery Set and did not even leave a comment to vote. As such, Ren Suo washed up quickly and then, went out to eat.

Indeed, our great brother Ren Suo had played till late in the night again and had only awoken in the afternoon.

Along the way, Ren Suo noticed that there were already many parents bringing their children who were going to be students at the school into the campus.

The Heavenly Institution of Lianjiang had already confirmed that the first day of school would be on the 10th of May, and the new students were already gradually moving in.

The Heavenly Institution of Lianjiang was not only the Practitioner Institution for Lianjiang City, but also for the neighboring cities. The nation had established ten such Practitioner Institutions and were evenly spread out throughout the nation to serve all areas equally.

Students from the other cities were starting to rush over to move into the dormitories early. Almost all of them were accompanied by their parents, and as they walked into the Heavenly Institution of Lianjiang, those who were more humble were barely able to conceal their joy, while the prouder ones held their chins up high.

According to Ren Suo’s mother, receiving the letter of acceptance from the Heavenly Institution of Lianjiang was no longer any different from being accepted into Tianjing University—they were all rare geniuses.

Moreover, being accepted into Tianjinng University only meant that the students would become the best of university graduates while being accepted into the Heavenly Institution of Lianjiang meant that they were about to become divine!

Numerous men dressed in suits were wandering outside the institution. When Ren Suo walked out, one of the men dressed in a suit immediately walked up to him.

He said, “Are you a parent of a new student in the Heavenly Institution of Lianjiang? I am a Hong Fu Real Estate…”

Ren Suo shook his head vigorously and replied, “I am not interested in buying a house.”

The man dressed in the suit continued, “Mister… mister if your child is studying in the Heavenly Institution of Lianjiang, why not consider buying a future house for your child? This area will definitely be developed into a business center in the future, and Hong Fu Real Estate Agency is now willing to give a ninety percent mortgage loan!”

He quickly added, “It’s all right even if you really do not have sufficient funds. Mister, if you have any intention to switch jobs and are willing to sign a 10-year employment contract with Hong Fu Real Estate Agency, you would also be given an exquisitely-designed luxury home here for free!”

Ren Suo looked at him suspiciously, saying, “Are the benefits that great to be a salesperson these days? Even being given a free house.”

The man dressed in the suit wiped his sweat as he said, “You would be able to enjoy the promotion as long as you have any direct relative studying in the Heavenly Institution of Lianjiang. If your relative attains decent results in the institution, you would even be able to rise through the ranks within Hong Fu Real Estate Agency.”

Ren Suo now understood the agency’s intent. He said, “So the agency is wanting to… form beneficial connections?”

“Something like that,” the man, who was dressed in the suit, said. He took out a piece of tissue and wiped the sweat on his forehead, then took out a document detailing the benefits. He continued, “If you are able to convince your relative from the Heavenly Institute of Lianjiang to join Hong Fu Real Estate Agency after graduation, based on our big boss’ intention, your relative would take an annual salary starting from 300 thousand dollars and your relative would be able to choose any property in the city. How does that sound?”

“Wow, that sounds amazing!” Ren Suo exclaimed as he looked at the document detailing the benefits. He said, “My annual salary is not even 300 thousand dollars now!”

“That’s right,” the man in the suit said. He was overjoyed as his time spent standing for two days was starting to pay off. He asked, “Are you the brother or the father? You look really young!”

“I am the brother,” replied Ren Suo, pretending to be serious. He continued, “But my sister does not study in the Heavenly Institution of Lianjiang, that should be alright too, no?”

“Ah?” said the man in the suit, stunned. He immediately took the document detailing the benefits back from Ren Suo and said, “Bro, we are all just working here, let’s not waste each other’s time, okay?”

Ren Suo looked at the other men wandering outside the school gate and asked, “Are the rest of them here with the same purpose as you?”

The man replied, “Mostly. The Heavenly Institute of Lianjiang is a rare opportunity, and practicing to be a divine being is an even rarer opportunity. Even the wealthy are not able to buy their way in, so naturally, all sorts of ways are used… Heh, there’s two people, hold on.”

Ren Suo looked on as the man who was dressed in the suit rushed towards a pair of parents who had just walked out of the school. He shrugged and left to eat a plate of braised chicken with rice for his lunch.

All sorts of tactics had emerged with the emergence of the Practitioner Institution.

What would happen then, when the Reiki Treasure erupted?

On Ren Suo’s way back to the school, many more cars had appeared outside the school gate as the Heavenly Institute of Lianjiang did not allow cars to be driven into the school. As such, the new students and their parents had to walk into the school while lugging their luggage along.

Ren Suo had only taken a quick glance and his heart started wavering.

“One, two, three… ?!”

In one quick glance, Ren Suo saw five new students, of which one of the guys and one of the girls gave Ren Suo a peculiar sense of attraction. Beside the high school girl, who seemed to carry a key, stood another young woman around the age of twenty, and she too gave Ren Suo the same strong feeling of attraction!

Fortunately for Ren Suo, he was standing some distance away and was able to resist the temptation. He forced himself to look away and slipped into the school while looking down at the floor.

The teen guys and girls, brothers and sisters, as well as the uncles and aunties noticed the furtive Ren Suo. They remarked, “Is that a school personnel?”

“He went in after tapping his access card, so he must be. Could there be such an old student?”

“He might be a road sweeper…”

It was only when Ren Suo was on the way home that he suddenly thought of another benefit as the “emergency school medic”.

—He could be in close contact with severely injured students who were unconscious for long periods of time.

If the student happened to carry a key, he would be able to retrieve it without much difficulty!

Ren Suo still remembered that he had a two-star treasure chest which he had been awarded for completing “Holy Priest: Survival Battle”, waiting to be opened by him!

However, not every student had a key, and those who did have the key might not be involved in a serious fight, wherein they would require his assistance for a grave injury.

If those students got into a fight and were able to utilize an ability that made people fall unconscious for a long period of time, and if that resulting unconsciousness could not be treated by a regular hospital but required the treatment of an extraordinary ability…

Ren Suo shook his head and dismissed the idea.

How could there be such a good thing in life?

Assuming he was able to discover such an ability, it had to be handed to the nation through formal and appropriate methods for the nation to impart it to students—Ren Suo could not teach the students just like that.

Ren Suo, you are someone who stayed at home playing games every day. Where could you have gotten the ability from? Be honest, did you discover a door to another dimension that enables you to warp into other dimensions like a mystical world, the world of the divine, or the world of martial artists?

What, you created that by yourself? All the better!

If Ren Suo could devise his own ability, he would definitely be an important researcher. Be prepared to say goodbye to your game console then, the nation needs the great contribution of your youth and hair towards developing Reiki technology.

Ren Suo: Wait, why do I feel like I fit all the conditions above?

Ren Suo quickly returned home and turned on the Mini Worlds Gaming Console. He also brought his laptop from the bedroom to the living room and opened the document “Purchase Plan” which he had written the previous night.

Subconsciously, Ren Suo took a glance at the other games and realized that the disc icon was still rotating for “Over My Dead Body”, but on the bottom right corner of “Holy Priest: Survival Battle”, the disc icon was now replaced by a blinking down arrow, as if a document was being downloaded.

Ren Suo was slightly doubtful, but it was obvious that “Holy Priest: Survival Battle” was in an “in progress” state, so he put the matter aside and loaded “The All-Devouring Soul”.

He loaded the game save and the scene unfolded slowly as if it were an ink painting scroll. Under the illumination of the bright morning sun, a beautiful young lady was standing by the side of a road. She was wearing a red robe and her hair was tied into a ponytail. Her white thighs were exposed, and she appeared delicate and pleasant.

That was the appearance of the red fox, in its human form using “Personify”, after Unlimited Legacy was effected from the pangolin!

Logically speaking, even if an animal mimicked a human form, it would still retain some of its animal characteristics. For the human-form pangolin, for example, rather than saying that it retained some traits of pangolin in its human form, it looked more like a pangolin who grew some human characteristics…

However, after the red fox was Personified, it looked completely like a human. There were absolutely no flaws, and its cute appearance was capable of “seducing” any human heart.

That was exactly the effect of “Delusion” and “Hint”, and they helped conceal any non-human traits of the Personified red fox!

Compared to combat ability, the strength of the red fox was much more suited in the human environment of the city!

However, the reason why Ren Suo stopped the red fox at that position the night before was that, after the red fox had escaped from danger, a familiar creature appeared in front of it—

“What a strong Reiki presence.”

A cute, white-haired and white-eyed Northern Mang Earth Elf, wearing a white gown, suddenly emerged from the ground. When Ren Suo encountered the elf in the middle of the previous night, he was so shocked that he almost dropped the game controller.

Had the Northern Mang Earth Elf been ugly, Ren Suo would have had a nightmare.

“Since we are of the same kind… Young fox, do you need some help? Of course, this is a trade, an exchange.”

“The red fox has encountered the Northern Mang Earth Elf. You may trade with the elf using merit points.”
