Chapter 11 - Chapter 8: Marquis of Lecheng County · Ying Rushi

Do they know that 'Yan San' changed his profession?

Yan Qing was slightly startled, but he immediately reacted. Not to mention 'Yan San' instantly recovering full health and his wounds healing, just 'Qi Blood +4' was quite eye-catching— a level 1 ordinary person only has 1 Qi Blood, while most people even when they reach level 10, have about 7 Qi Blood or so, even for the monster that 'Yan San' started as with 13 Qi Blood, 'Qi Blood +4' was equivalent to one-third body strengthening, it's shady if others can't notice the difference.

On the screen, it might not be clear, but in the real world, 'Yan San' might have muscles swelling to the point of almost bursting through the armor.

"That's right, I changed my profession to Messenger."

Yan Qing replied while picking up Zheng Shan's loot. The surrounding Baibao Guards were in an uproar, it seems that even among elite soldiers, changing profession to Messenger was quite a rare event.

Wuwan Liu stared at him, even through the mask, Yan Qing could feel his shock. Although it felt a bit abrupt, Yan Qing still chose this moment to immediately walk over beside Zheng Shan to pick up the loot, lest things get complicated over time.

"You picked up Spiritual Jade ×800"

"You picked up Blood Replenishing Pill ×2"

"You picked up 'Token: White Iron Straight Saber'"

"You picked up 'Basic Footwork Mastery Secret Manual'"

When Yan Qing saw the last item, he was first stunned, then widened his eyes, and with the fastest speed opened the personal inventory and transferred the 'Basic Footwork Mastery Secret Manual' to the public warehouse!

It was only a few steps of operation, yet Yan Qing's hands were sweating, as tense as pressing a bomb switch. The reason he was so nervous was that this thing might directly turn his current situation around!

"Basic Footwork Mastery Secret Manual"

"Source: Any elite humanoid enemy expert in basic footwork"

"Usage condition: None"

"Effect: Immediately master max level basic footwork"

"Remark: This manual records very detailed dodge and retreat techniques, whether you are committing arson or acting chivalrous, it provides great help."

Click on 'Basic Footwork Mastery Secret Manual' in public warehouse, three options pop up:

"Use"

"Transfer to personal warehouse of another role"

"Discard"

Yan Qing swallowed his spit and chose "Use" → "Used by Yan Qing".

Thump thump!

The heart beat extraordinarily strongly, the Qi Blood surged through the veins in the limbs, the legs in particular felt like they were on fire! But the phenomenon came and went quickly, when Yan Qing calmly inhaled deeply, his body had returned to normal.

He put down the gaming console and walked to the space, looking at the distance of the room's walls and ceiling, without any thought, merely following his instinct he kicked up, first stepping on the wall and jumping onto the ceiling, then kicking back from the ceiling to jump to another wall. He repeated this trick, in just three seconds he toured around the room without touching the ground, not panting or gasping, as leisurely as hopping on a grid on flat ground.

The knees seemed to be installed with springs, so light that just any jump could fly up.

It really works!

Though there was no game system prompt, Yan Qing knew his basic footwork had reached level 10 max, and his character's level increased by about five or six levels, Qi Blood and skill rose by two or three points, otherwise his physical quality couldn't be so good— in Yan Qing's estimation, his originally frail body trained by fast food and company tempering had a Qi Blood level of about '1', while the Qi Blood raised by rising five or six levels amounted to physical condition multiplying a few times.

Yan Qing exhaled deeply, the inexplicable crossing, the approaching thief action, the unfamiliar world, the weak self, the anxiety brought by all this evaporated in this moment.

He finally found the way to strengthen!

'Messenger' was recommended for old players to start a new account, and old players definitely didn't want to level up, the 'mastery manual' was born to solve this pain point: it not only rapidly boosts the new account level, if old players want to customize a character's profession, they can also collect corresponding skill manuals to skip the boring leveling process.

Take the 'Sword Dance Messenger' known by Yan Qing as an example, Sword Dance Messenger as an extremely popular first-turn profession, almost only old players starting new accounts can change to it, because Sword Dance Messenger requires basic swordsmanship and basic dance, however, early stage swordsmanship has small attack range low attack power, dance improvement speed is slow, if only relying on self-training the skill is pure torture.

Whereas old players just need to choose a popular weapon to reach level ten to twenty, burst out various skill manuals, then go back to start a new account and change to Sword Dance Messenger which is much more comfortable.

Yan Qing can completely replicate the 'old account leading new account' operation, the difference is only that he is the new account himself, 'Yan San' and other created characters are the old accounts. The old accounts venture outside to scavenge resources, Yan Qing in the Thief's House handles the overall situation, waiting for the old accounts to first become strong to lead him later to strength!

When Yan Qing returned to pick up the gaming console, he found other Baibao Guards were leaving one by one, only Wuwan Liu and 'Yan San' remained in the underground hall. Seeing 'Yan San' move, Wuwan Liu suddenly said, "You can take some treasures before leaving, this is an unwritten rule, no one will investigate."

After speaking he turned and left, seemingly to verify his words, he casually took a few pearl necklaces from the gold and silver treasures beside him on his way out.

Treasures? Yan Qing looked at the treasures all over the floor, attempted to click on them, but 'Yan San' wouldn't budge— in the game system, these treasures are merely background, completely untouchable, and gold and silver treasures have no meaning in the game, the basic currency of 'Messenger' is only Spiritual Jade.
