55: Chapter 55: The “Human” Skill of the Divine Detective Bureau!

Editor: Henyee Translations The large-scale sect mission is about to start, hurry back!

——You Jin

A few short lines of text, but nonetheless, it was something Ye Weiming had to take seriously.

For regular players, large-scale tasks often mean generous rewards.

Though God’s Catcher Sect is different from other factions, the mission rewards are nothing short of impressive.

Even if mastery of the sect’s martial arts isn’t part of the rewards, other rewards are certainly worth the price of admission.

Unlike other sects, the large-scale tasks of God’s Catcher Sect also carry a certain commanding quality.

If you don’t participate, there are definitely corresponding penalties.

Under the carrot and stick approach, Ye Weiming decisively declined Tang Sanci’s invitation and decided to complete his sect mission first.

To express his apology, in addition to the longevity lock, Ye Weiming also gifted Tang Sanci five each of Seven-Star Nails and Mosquito Needles.

However, these were already used, and their toxicity greatly reduced.

Seeing Ye Weiming’s generosity, Tang Sanci reciprocated the kindness and promised to exchange his longevity lock and hidden weapons for the Pet Silver Bracelets.

With that, both parties were well-pleased.

Gleefully storing his fully-healed Ah Huang inside the pet space of his bracelet, Ye Weiming bid farewell to Tang Sanci and headed towards the courier station of Peony Village with him.

As he walked, Ye Weiming finally started sorting out his gains, intending to further boost his strength before returning to his sect.

First was the Cultivation Point reward.

Three bosses plus the final mission reward resulted in a total of 2550 Cultivation Points!

Besides, there was a ‘Qinggong insights’, a ‘Finger techniques insights’, and a ‘Swordsmanship insights’ book.

These were harvested from the corpses of bosses Ge Angshou, Ji Laiye, and Lin Zhipei.

Their quality, of course, was extraordinary.

Qinggong insights: Insights from the notorious bandit Ge Angshou’s practice of Qinggong.

Can be used on a specific Qinggong technique to increase its proficiency by 1500 points!

Finger technique insights: Insights from the notorious bandit Ji Laiye’s practice of finger techniques.

Can be used on a specific finger technique to increase its proficiency by 2000 points!

Swordsmanship insights: The Swordsmanship records from the notorious bandit Lin Zhipei.

Can be used on a specific Swordsmanship to increase its proficiency by 3000 points!

Considering the unexpected results that could be obtained from using them as Ah Zhong had previously suggested, Ye Weiming did not rush to use these three Secret Books.

Instead, he stowed them away in his backpack, planning to take his time to read through them one by one.

Next were the items dropped by the three bosses.

The loot from Ge Angshou was surprisingly good.

The attributes from the Forest Royale Necklace turned him from a fragile assassin into a robust one.

Even among Gold Equipments, it was considered high-quality.

Now, even if Cao Cao fired a critical hit with the Zhuge Crossbow, it wouldn’t kill him.

Probably…

The beginner skill ‘Throwing Star’, he hadn’t decided whether to learn it or not, and planned to consult with You Jin upon his return to the God’s Catcher Sect.

Last but not least, the Azure Bracelet had decent Properties.

Still, Ye Weiming felt it was best suited to hidden weapon players and considered it a bit of a waste.

Most importantly, the bracelets came in pairs and had to be worn together.

However, Ye Weiming needed to equip the Pet Silver Bracelets, so they conflicted.

So, in his eyes, these decent bracelets became trash.

They could either be sold off or used as gifts; he would certainly not use them.

Following that was Ji Laiye, whose equipment drop was the most disappointing.

The Frogskin Bracelets were basically boxing gloves, which Ye Weiming, who hadn’t learned boxing, couldn’t use at all;

As for a sack of rice that was a strain to carry, the less said, the better!

Maybe Ji Laiye dropped other good stuff, which had ended up in Tang Sanci’s backpack?

Shaking his head, Ye Weiming then focused his attention on today’s main event, the two items dropped by Lin Zhipei.

The Iron-Bow was a bit too heavy for him, and without archery skills, the random accuracy left much to be desired.

More importantly, among the few players with high attributes, even he couldn’t draw this powerful bow, let alone other players.

Maybe in some time, he could sell this bow for a good price, but definitely not now!

As for ‘True Sword Art’, Ye Weiming did not rush to learn it.

His reasoning was the same as the three insight Secret Books — he’d find time to sit down and slowly go through it.

Ye Weiming’s current attributes were still a bit short of the requirements for cultivating ‘True Sword Art’, so he decided to use the newly received Cultivation Points to upgrade his ‘Breathing Exercises’ to level 9, fulfilling the requirement for the technique on both his strength and physique.

Looking at ‘Wandering Dragon leads the Phoenix’ proficiency close to its limit, he decided to max it out as well.

After all the operations, Ye Weiming’s attributes had changed to…

…

What made Ye Weiming breathe a sigh of relief was that the proficiency needed to upgrade “Breathing Technique” from the 9th to the 10th level is only 25600, which is double the previous level, rather than as in “Sword Art of the Yue Maiden” where the upgrade requires more than twenty times more.

In this way, there is hope to upgrade this beginner inner strength to the perfect 10th level in a short time.

As for the “Sword Art of the Yue Maiden”, Ye Weiming no longer plans to waste valuable cultivation and martial arts secrets on it.

…

Returning to Bianjing City by the horse-drawn carriage of the post station, Ye Weiming immediately deployed his movement technique and ran back to the ShangBu office.

The moment he stepped through the door, he saw March, who he hadn’t seen for a long time, meditating on a cushion.

The young girl was dressed in a light-yellow coat and had her hair tied in two ponytails, paired with her fair skin, she had a charming vibe.

Seeing Ye Weiming, March immediately stood up, smiled, and greeted, “Ah Ming, you haven’t been gone for that long, you must have improved a lot, right!”

“Not at all…” Ye Weiming modestly shook his head, “Although I have made some progress, it’s only enough to not fall too far behind the other players.”

Hearing this, March showed a teasing look, and sent Ye Weiming a screenshot without saying a word.

Ding!

Passive skill “Observant” activated, you noticed that while his speech exudes humbleness, he can’t hide the pride he feels in his heart, full of an expansive feeling that says “I am invincible in the world!”

Damn!

Faced with such a bug-like ability, Ye Weiming could only think of one source.

So he frowned and asked, “After you joined, you didn’t choose the Heaven skill?”

March shrugged helplessly, “By the time I joined, the Heaven and Earth skills were already chosen by others.

Only ‘Man’ and ‘Ghost’ were left, and I’m afraid of ghosts, so I chose ‘Man’.”

Without asking, this ability comparable to a human lie detector must be her chosen ‘Man’ skill, only if there are others.

Ye Weiming nodded and said, “Don’t let others know of this ability.”

“Of course I know that, but you were the one who brought us into the ShangBu office, we’re practically family, right?” March paused for a moment and added, “Just now, Youjin said that the sect mission won’t be issued until all three ShangBu players return, so, let’s just wait here.”

Ye Weiming gently shook his head, “I still have some other matters to discuss with Youjin.”

Upon entering the backyard, Ye Weiming indeed saw Youjin holding his sword with both hands, standing tall in the middle of the courtyard.

Upon seeing Ye Weiming, he took the initiative to speak, “Weiming, you’re back?”

Wow, look at how friendly he’s become.

Where’s all his high and cold airs?

Youjin ignored what Ye Weiming was thinking and continued, “The mission will be issued by Head Huang after all three of you have gathered, so you can wait here for now.” He paused and then added, “I didn’t expect you to have already cultivated the Dragon Lure to the fifth level, good job!”

Ye Weiming gave a wry smile, took out two secret books from his bosom, and said, “Commander Youjin, I acquired two Martial Arts Secret Books while I was performing the mission, but the information from the cover is too vague, can you help to see if it’s suitable for me to cultivate?”

(This chapter includes a status display segment, but don’t think it’s for the mere extension of word count!

Because the status display part is only 269 words in total, and the wordcount for this chapter, including this sentence, is 2850 words.

So more text is included indeed, 2850-2000-269＝581 words are added in…)

(Hehe… Are you so excited by my sincerity that you can’t wait to give me all your recommendation votes?

We’re all adults here; feel free to cast your votes.

I can handle it.)
