Astral Apostle Chapter 84: Recruitment

Zhou Jing didn't answer immediately, but asked instead: "Are you a wandering hunter from Baiyuan City?"

"You know me?" Weber wondered.

Zhou Jing smiled: "I have never met you before, but when we met for the first time, I found you staring at my face with surprise, as if I have seen someone who looks similar to me Now that you call out Jason's name, it's not difficult to tell that you used to be a hunter in Baiyuan City. If I'm not mistaken, you and Jason used to be hunting partners together."

This passage reveals enough information, and Weber is more and more sure of his guess, but he still confirms it and asks: "Then you are?"

Zhou Jing put away his smile, deliberately lowered his voice, pretending to be cautious:

"Jason is my real brother, but I don't have a last name now, only Jess."

It really is a blood relationship, so I know I guessed right!

Weber believed it right away, and he didn't know Jason that well, so he immediately accepted this statement that was in line with his common sense.

After all, the closeness of the two people's looks is ironclad evidence... The previous speculation that Jason was resurrected from the dead is really too absurd.

——Just say that they cannot be the same person, not mentioning the common sense that the dead cannot be brought back to life, but the difference in their conversational performance is quite large. Much better.

He is not surprised that Jess concealed his surname. As the assassination of the lord has fermented to this day, too many people know the name "Jason Wood". This surname is eye-catching, and anonymity can avoid a lot of trouble.

At this moment, Weber suddenly fell silent—even though Jess was Jason's brother, he was still a stranger to him, and he didn't know what to say after recognizing his identity.

After hesitating for a few seconds, Weber thought of a question and asked in confusion:

"You are Jason's brother and a hunter who has been strengthened three times. Why didn't Jason follow you, but went to Baiyuan City to become a hunter? If I were with you, maybe Jason wouldn't have to die It's..."

Zhou Jing waved his hand and said seriously: "I know what you're thinking, but our family never depends on others, even brothers, they have to be separated when they reach a certain age, scattered all over the place and live their own lives - independent, This is our Wood family motto!"

A look of surprise appeared on Weber's muscular face.

Since the tribal era, the concept of survival in a group has been fused into the blood of the world, and it is difficult for him to understand this kind of family training.

However, as an experienced hunter, Weber suddenly thought that there are many strange beasts in nature that have similar habits, which would allow members of the group to forage and experience alone before returning to the group.

Clan members often die in the process, but the surviving beasts will become stronger, which is a cold and cruel survival habit.

'Wood...seems to be a cruel family. ’ thought Weber.

He didn't doubt the authenticity of Zhou Jing's words, nor did he doubt the strong resilience brought about by this kind of family training, but he just didn't understand.

"But your brother is dead, you really... oh!"

Wei Bo subconsciously asked, and suddenly he had a flash of inspiration, and his eyes widened suddenly.

That's right, Lute, the lord of Baiyuan City, was kidnapped and his ticket was torn apart. The murderer is suspected to be a third-time enhancer!

The strength is matched, the motivation is matched...the case has been solved!

The murderer must be Jess—half a year after Jason's death, his brother went to Baiyuan City, took Root's life, and achieved revenge!

Weber suddenly realized that everything was right.

A cruel family that is cruel to its own people must be even more cruel to its enemies! Usually they don't rely on each other, but once a relative dies, the Wood family will definitely retaliate fiercely!

Wei Bo's heart is awe-inspiring.

Seeing this, Zhou Jing raised his eyebrows and said meaningfully: "There are some things, don't say it if you guess it, I believe in your relationship with Jason."

Wei Bo came back to his senses with a serious face: "I will keep a secret for you."

He didn't mean to expose it, and the question was just to clarify the confusion. Now that he got the answer, he was satisfied and had no other thoughts.

Although Weber does not approve of criminal killing of the lord, he is not pedantic either. Since there is no proof of the death and no one finds out, he will not betray Jason's relatives.

What's more, Lute was regarded as an enemy by the hunters of Baiyuan City. If it wasn't for the lord status, he would have been hacked to death. At that time, he was so happy that he cooked three big bowls of meat.

Zhou Jing nodded, trusting the hunter's ethics.

If he was ruthless, he might want to silence him at this moment, but Zhou Jing didn't have such a thought at all. After all, he was a former comrade-in-arms, and being recognized was not a big deal in his eyes.

Do you know what an eternal apostle is?

After chatting for a while and telling Weber the "truth", Zhou Jing walked out of the tent and let out a soft breath.

This acquaintance will not reveal anything, but the side effect is that Weber really thinks that there is a "Wood family" who has begun to hide their names...

"Small problem, small problem."

Zhou Jing muttered a few words, then put the matter aside, opened the panel and took a look.

The panel at this point has several prompts.

[Trigger achievement [First kill - blood warrior (secondary enhancement)]]

[Get 1000 star points! [Qualification Improvement - Physical (Small)] x1, [Qualification Improvement - Resistance (Small)] x1]

[Trigger achievement [Alien Blood Killer (Ten Killer)]]

[Get 1000 star points! ]

Turning Doton and his gang, triggered two achievements, and made a small profit.

Because Zhou Jing has not executed Doton yet, and intends to bring him back to the capital to earn his reputation, the first kill achievement of the three-time enhancer has not yet been triggered, but he is bound to win it, and applying for personal execution is no joke.

In addition to the achievement, a special prompt was triggered this time.

[You get career deeds - [Deep Rock City Rebellion]! ]

[Rating: City Level]

[Current reputation bonus: +1]

"What is this?" Zhou Jing triggered it for the first time, and explained with a glance.

When involved in certain special events and making an impact, there is a chance to trigger career deeds, which are related to fame. The higher the dissemination, influence, historical significance and other factors of this deed, the more the legend will increase, which is dynamically changing.

It is equivalent to the "celebrity deeds" and "great achievements" of a star apostle in the current world, which can bring fame and prestige.

As long as the "career deeds" are publicized, the reputation bonus can be increased, but the upper limit depends on the nature of the matter itself - publicity is also practical, and there is a limit to bragging.

"It's strange. I assassinated the lord back then and it was quite a sensation. I gave it a lot of fame, but it didn't trigger this thing. I don't know what the judgment rate is."

Zhou Jing rubbed his chin, he didn't have any clues, so he didn't get entangled.

In any case, it is a good thing to increase the reputation. This thing can increase the income of each regression settlement and placement settlement.

Close the panel, Zhou Jing touched the witchcraft books kept next to him, his eyes flickered.

"It's time to talk to that 'wizard'."

…

Lin En slowly opened his eyes, and what he saw was a strange roof, and he was lying on a wooden bed.

Excessive use of witchcraft caused a splitting headache, as if his brain was being stirred, he grunted and couldn't help but rub his forehead.

At this time, a man's voice sounded next to him.

"Are you awake?"

Lyn En turned his head to look, and found a strong and burly man sitting beside the bed, who looked vaguely familiar.

Pieces of memory fragments welled up in his dazed head, and he pieced together the experience before coma.

Lin En suddenly remembered that he was being hunted down by gangsters before he fainted from overdraft.

"You saved me?"

"Yes, I am Jess, the imperial hunter." Zhou Jing nodded.

"Uh, thank you Jess."

Lin En's tone was sincere, but his expression was unnatural and his eyes dodged.

He was lucky to be rescued, and he was grateful, but he was also worried that the scene where he used witchcraft to stop the gangster would be seen, revealing his uniqueness, so he couldn't help feeling entangled.

It's a pity that things didn't develop in the direction he prayed for, Zhou Jing looked at him with great interest, and said:

"I saw that you can manipulate earth and rocks. This is not an ability enhanced by different blood, isn't it? Are you going to explain it?"

It was still discovered... Lin En felt helpless, and didn't know how to refute, but just kept silent.

Seeing this, Zhou Jing took out the witchcraft book from his arms: "I have read this book, the ability you use is called witchcraft, right?"

Ling En was shocked, and quickly touched his chest, but found that it was empty, and immediately reached out to grab the book anxiously.

"Give me back the book!"

Zhou Jing easily pushed away Lynn's hand, shook his head and said, "Answer my question first, where did you get this book?"

Lin En's small arms and legs couldn't twist Zhou Jing at all. After several attempts to no avail, he had no choice but to give up, and said helplessly, "I dug this out."

Zhou Jing shook the book: "Tell me in detail."

Lin En pursed his lips, struggled for a while, and finally realized that the situation had been compromised. He didn't dare to make a mistake in front of the hunters of the empire, and depressedly told his story.

A few years ago, he was a bookkeeper for a caravan, and he traveled with the team. One day, he was attacked by strange beasts in the wild, and the team fled. Opened the beast.

And when he fell into the hole, something hit his back, and he found half of a hard black object buried in the ground, so he dug it out with his hands, and pulled out an old box, which contained A book is this remnant book that records witchcraft knowledge.

After being lucky enough to escape, Lynn began to delve into the contents of this book, and found that he seemed to be able to practice the witchcraft knowledge recorded in it. According to the contents of the book, he traveled around and took risks to find the spirit of nature that can enlighten the power of witchcraft. After being chased by a strange beast again, he accidentally discovered a spirit of nature, and it was difficult to integrate it into his body. Only then did he obtain The sorcerous power of the earth elemental.

Afterwards, he lived in seclusion in the nearby Deep Rock City, not daring to reveal his abilities, and concentrated on studying the contents of witchcraft books until today.

"...So you got the power of witchcraft and did nothing but stay at home?"

Zhou Jing frowned.

"I don't dare to use it, or if someone finds out, someone will definitely steal my book."

Lin En hesitated, and couldn't help but glance at Zhou Jing as he spoke, his expression seemed to say that I really had a foresight.

Possessing extraordinary power, he also wants to show it, and wants to start a new life, but he is afraid to take this step, so he has been locking himself in the room and studying witchcraft knowledge, and has been suppressing his inner desire. impulse.

Although it was exposed now, which made him panic, but he was inexplicably relieved, as if he wanted others to know but had to hide his skills, and finally he was forced to let others know, so he no longer had to hide himself.

Lin En was willing to compromise and answer. There were some factors in this aspect, and he held it in his heart for too long... At the same time, it was because Zhou Jing was his life-saving benefactor, so he could not feel Zhou Jing's hostility.

After listening to Lin En's explanation, Zhou Jing rubbed his temples.

I thought it was a wizard with a heritage, but I didn't expect it to be a self-taught one. It seems that there is no way to get information about other wizards in the world from Lynn.

"Now that I know your ability, what are you going to do?" Zhou Jing asked with folded arms.

"I don't know either." Lin En said with a tangled face, "What do you want me to do?"

He couldn't do the killing and silence thing, and he couldn't beat Zhou Jing, and he didn't even think about it in his heart.

He only prayed that Zhou Jing would not be malicious, even if he was in good condition, he would probably not be able to beat this person, not to mention that he was exhausted now.

Zhou Jing looked at him carefully for a while, then suddenly smiled, and threw the witchcraft book back into Lin En's arms.

"Don't be nervous, I'm asking you these things just out of curiosity, I've never seen such power, I don't plan to do anything to you."

Lin En quickly grabbed the book, breathed a sigh of relief, and looked at Zhou Jing in surprise: "Aren't you going to take my book?"

"No."

Zhou Jing shook his head, he had already read it completely, and he could read it from the experience log at any time.

He paused, looked at Lin En's surprised expression, and said with a smile:

"You have extraordinary talents, do you want to accept my employment? I will pay you, on the condition that I also want to delve into the knowledge of this book."

"This..." Lin En hesitated for a moment.

The corner of Zhou Jing's mouth hooked, and he said: "The book says that the spirits of nature will only appear in some inaccessible places, which are usually very dangerous. With my protection, you can boldly search for them without worrying about threats in the wild. The spirit of nature. I am already an insider. If you go to cooperate with others, more people will know. I have no malice towards you, and others may not, so it is the best and safest choice to cooperate with me."

Hearing this, Lynn was a little moved.

In the past two years of seclusion, witchcraft has made little progress, and only one natural spirit is still fused, because I dare not go deep into the wild to find new natural spirits.

My own tricks can't deal with too strong wild beasts at all. I can be lucky once, but I won't be so lucky all the time.

And this tough hunter is right, he is already an insider, the deal is done, instead of thinking about continuing to hide it, it is good to cooperate together.

"Can you let me think about it?" Lynn would be uncertain for a while.

"Of course, before I leave Deep Rock City, you can think about it slowly."

Zhou Jing speaks very well.

Recruiting Lynn is the result of his deliberation. Compared with simply taking away a book, it is more beneficial to bring someone who has successfully practiced witchcraft~IndoMTL.com~A living example is better than a dead book.

But he didn't force it. If Lynn really didn't want to, then forget it. The big deal is to delve into the so-called witchcraft by himself. The way to get started is clearly written in the book.

The power of witchcraft can only be activated by looking for the spirit of nature. The spirit of nature is quite rare and can only be discovered by using the special method recorded in the book. Finding this thing requires luck.

The apostles of the star realm have a lot of trial and error costs. If Lin En can succeed, the apostles naturally have a better chance.

However, Zhou Jing felt that Lin En would agree with a high probability, not only because he was a benefactor, but also because this person's behavior just now revealed a mentality between the extraordinary and the common people, and he was not a very strong character.

People should not mind sharing and cooperating as long as they can gain trust, have no malice, and bring what they need.

Zhou Jing got up to leave, walked out of the room, raised his hand to cover the sun, and curled up the corners of his mouth.

"Witchcraft system... I don't know what it will be like to use."
