Chapter 876: Chapter 534 Arrangement

The Moon God and Li Changhe had agreed to meet at a certain city in Anqing Prefecture.

In order to find the platform before the train passed by, they needed to hurry there as soon as possible.

Because the plan came about so suddenly, options like high-speed trains and airplanes were out of the question. Even bus tickets wouldn’t be available until two days later.

Luckily, the Earth Knight was able to lend a hand.

He was a senior figure at a cargo shipping company and managed to easily stow the two of them away in a freight truck.

Having not seen him for a month, the Earth Knight’s demeanor had changed significantly.

Looking at the slightly overweight young man driving and smiling at himself, Li Changhe had a hard time associating him with the handsome lad he’d known before.

"I went traveling with my wife these past days, ate a bit too much. She couldn’t eat this before and couldn’t touch that. Suddenly indulging a bit, and my figure just couldn’t maintain," said the Earth Knight, patting his belly.

Before the disaster fog set in, he had taken his wife on a trip, which had caused his once solid abs to revert to their natural state.

"That’s fine, but I still suggest you lose some weight. We players need to keep it in check, don’t end up like Li," He Feng climbed into the co-driver’s seat, shook hands with the Earth Knight, and said, "General Mountain, He Qi. Or you can call me He Feng."

"I’m the Earth Knight of Sword Mist; when no one else is around, you can call me Wang Dazhu..." the Earth Knight thought for a moment then added, "Still, just call me Knight or Earth, I’m not keen on using my real name out loud."

The Earth Knight didn’t have any reservations about Li Changhe, readily giving his real name. Brother Dong would probably approve of this level of professionalism!

In fact, it was understandable, given that the all-purpose medicine was a lifesaver for the Earth Knight who was at a dead end at the time.

His level-up speed was fast, mainly because he wanted to get through instances in order to find medicine that could cure his woman’s illness.

But such medicine was generally a matter of luck more than search. Just as he was planning something, the all-purpose medicine that Li Changhe brought completely resolved all the trouble.

Therefore, he was quite friendly towards Li Changhe; knowing they needed a lift, he drove over himself. He claimed it was on the way...

In fact, the advantage of this was that neither of them needed to bother with disguises. After all, they both knew each other inside and out.

Earlier, Yun Ting had suggested that they use the Mirror of Reversal to go on the road—after all, who would guess that two pretty young girls could actually be grown men...

But this proposal was flatly refused by both men.

He Feng even swore he’d rather die than use the Mirror of Reversal again.

So, the three of them got on the truck with laughter and chatter, heading towards Anqing Prefecture. If all went well, they should arrive by dawn.

...

At this moment, there weren’t a few players heading to Anqing Prefecture.

All of them planned to board the train, moving silently towards their destinations with their respective cargoes.

However, in a suburban villa in Anqing Prefecture.

A middle-aged, overweight man respectfully bowed his head to a man in a suit, saying, "Doctor, all the goods are ready, and they’re right here. This is the sample extracted, please check it out."

As he spoke, he opened a suitcase. Inside was the naked body of a young girl, disturbed by a clear cut at her neck and centipede-like suture marks—clear signs she had suffered a throat slash.

The man in the suit snapped his fingers, and a shadow rapidly emerged from under his feet and poured into the girl’s body.

Afterward, the girl slowly rose from the ground. With a single fist, she swung forwards and produced a gust with her punch.

The middle-aged man looked at the girl’s attractive body but was consumed by fear and bowed his head; he knew that a terrible evil spirit was now inhabiting it.

Meanwhile, the man in the suit had a sullen look as he reached out to caress the girl’s face and said, "How does it feel?"

"Marginally sufficient," the girl spoke with a deep, chilling voice, "Pity, there are no particularly powerful Magic Eyes, nor is she a main Physique player. If I were to use my full strength, she would break apart quickly."

"We haven’t acquired any high-quality Magic Eyes lately, and we’ve collected very few bodies of players," the middle-aged man wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. "However, with the recent disaster fog in Yanyun, many players have died. Perhaps among the passengers this time, someone will sell a player’s body. If we manage to buy it, I can start the modifications right away."

"Hmm. Let’s hope so," the man in the suit continued to stroke the girl’s body and chuckled, "You’ve been working hard recently."

"It’s not hard at all. If it weren’t for the doctor stepping in, I would’ve been dead long ago," the middle-aged man sweated profusely, and that was no lie. A few months ago, he was tormented by some supernatural entity. It was this doctor who suppressed the evil spirit that had tormented him for so long.

He had changed from a trafficker who lurked in the shadows, shunning the light,

into the owner of a big factory, even getting the family of that boss. When he laid upon that beautiful woman, he was finally certain that he had achieved everything he had longed for.

Of course, the price was that he faced beings more dangerous than the police ever were.

In some ways, the doctor was both an angel and a demon...

The middle-aged man relied on but also feared his power.

"Enough, don’t be afraid," the man in the suit said with a light laugh, reassuring the middle-aged man. Then, he tossed a photo of a girl onto the coffee table and said, "This girl has been cleaning up supernatural events in the surrounding cities recently. Judging by her actions, she’s a newbie, and there hasn’t been any formidable protection power detected around her. But she has an extremely keen sense of insight. She can easily find some entities that even we have not noticed."

"Are you saying she possesses a type of insight-related Magic Eye? That would indeed be rare," said the middle-aged man. "But could she be one of the passengers?"

The type of Magic Eye determines its differing effects. A Magic Eye that can perceive the presence of Spirit Bodies would undoubtedly be very rare.

"And passengers too can become prey," the man in the suit chuckled. "Such a Magic Eye is rare, and I hope you can lure her here. Don’t let other passengers get to her first. If I’m not mistaken, that should be the Yin and Yang eyes of the Taoist. Such a rare Magic Eye won’t come cheap. Plus, didn’t you say you were worried about not having enough player bodies for materials?"

"Yes! I’ll make arrangements right away."

The middle-aged man looked at the photograph on the coffee table.

The girl in her twenties in the photo was youthful and charmingly attractive.

She likely... has no idea what she’s about to face, does she?

But... rest assured, before you die, I’ll let you experience the beauty of being alive.

The middle-aged man swallowed hard, picked up the photo, and left the room.

...

Elsewhere, in a hotel, Zhao Jiu shuddered.

Her hand trembled while applying eye drops, causing the liquid to spill on her face.

After muttering a slight complaint, she wiped the eye drops from her face.

These days, she hadn’t been sparing any effort to level up by clearing supernatural events.

Yet, the leveling was still painfully slow.

Perhaps the Daoist extraordinaries were being overly protective of her. This time they finally did not arrange for a multitude of experts to be around her.

However, even at level eight, she already had three pieces of Epic Level equipment.

She had plenty of consumable Skill Scrolls. She even had to use food from her [Backpack] to ensure safety for eating and drinking.

Without all these, they wouldn’t even allow her to leave the house.

But with these things, can she really become stronger?

Zhao Jiu hid back under the covers, murmuring in a low voice, "This isn’t what I expected at all."
