Chapter 64: Confronting Zhou Xian!
【Discovered Special Profession–Follower, faith in self, no Job Appointment Conditions.】
“All the faith got wiped out?” Su Chen touched his nose, clicking his tongue in wonder, “At least it held out for so many days, not bad.”
Su Chen hesitated slightly before choosing Job Appointment.
“Believing in oneself, wonder what special abilities it has.”
This Job Appointment brought almost no change to his body, just a Panel popup notification.
【Follower Job Appointment completed, obtained Professional Ability—No Believer: Can disguise as other Followers.】
【Currently can disguise as【Heituo Follower】, after disguise completed, can obtain new Professional Ability, obtain more Follower Professions for Devouring Disguise.】
It can even work like this?
Su Chen exclaimed again, “This Profession is kinda interesting.”
He was quite curious and immediately tried disguising.
【Follower（Heituo Follower）–Lord is Heituo: As a Heituo Follower, you can faintly sense the existence of other Heituo Followers, as well as certain items related to Heituo】
“This simple?” Su Chen frowned slightly, but then felt a chill on his head, reached up to touch it, and was immediately startled, “My hair’s gone?”
He ran to the bathroom to check, and now he looked completely different, turned bald with a black vertical pupil mark on his head.
“Fuck, my hair.” Su Chen quickly canceled the disguise, and the next moment, his hair returned to normal.
“It really is disguise…” He finally breathed a sigh of relief, then thought of many things, muttering: “This way, it seems I’ve got another life-saving talisman. If I really encounter Heituo Followers, I can just turn into one of their own.”
“No, these cults treat the bottom level as Cannon Fodder, turning into their own might not be a good thing.”
“Unfortunately, this Profession comes from transforming into a Heituo Follower, can’t teach it to others.”
He switched to【Heituo Follower】 again, carefully sensing and experiencing, then suddenly turned his head toward the southwest, surprised and uncertain, “That direction, it feels like something is attracting me.”
Su Chen didn’t expect this sensation to be so direct.
“Should I…” He pondered in his mind, eyes turning slightly.
When Nightfall arrived, he took out Shadow-Evading Clothes and put them on, donned the Mimic Mask, wisps of breeze enveloped him,【Shadow of the Hidden Wind】 activated, and he also activated the【Mental Shield】 ability. Even under the light, he was nearly invisible.
He leaped out the window, hid nearby, and waited a long time with no one coming to look.
“Did Zhang Hongbo not send anyone to watch here, or did my concealment fool them?”
Su Chen frowned slightly, and with a few flashes, he vanished into the Nightfall.
Following the sensation, Su Chen arrived near an ordinary Civilian House in the outer city.
But he didn’t rush forward, nor switch to【Heituo Follower】 to blend in; he just sensed from the periphery to confirm the direction.
Then he took out the Bracelet and carefully contacted Sun Fatty.
“Yes, I’m sure…”
“Bring people over, don’t say it was me, just say it’s your channel…”
After ending the communication, he concealed his aura and waited on the periphery.
“Sense Heituo Followers, as well as items related to Heituo…” Su Chen pondered silently, “Heituo Followers can’t all be gathered here; what led me is probably some kind of item.”
One or two hours later, Inspection Airships silently landed in the distance, fully armed Inspector Guards filed out, led by Sun Fatty and Patrol Section Chief Qin Cheng.
But before he could finish deploying, his expression drastically changed, he looked toward the target building, and shadows surged out like fleas, leaping in all directions.
“News leaked!” Sun Tai’s face darkened, and he immediately decided, “Action! Kill only, no capture!”
Boom!
His fat body jiggled, Sun Tai moved like a rabbit unleashed, and together with Qin Cheng, they charged straight at the strongest one in the middle.
Su Chen watched carefully from afar, “Seems like there’s still an insider in the Inspection Department, but their position shouldn’t be high, only notifying now.”
“However…” His gaze shifted to another direction.
Qin Cheng and Sun Tai were chasing the strongest few in the group, but Su Chen could feel that the thing attracting him wasn’t in that direction.
Instead, it went in the opposite direction.
“Pretty clever.” Su Chen grinned and followed silently.
The target’s movement speed wasn’t fast, darting through the desolate outer city areas, and Su Chen soon caught up, knocking out a few First Order Inspector Guards along the way.
Swoosh!
A shadow suddenly dropped, the Heituo Follower holding the Metal Box in his arms stopped, staring at him coldly yet suspiciously.
Su Chen removed the Shadow-Evading Clothes, revealing the signature bald head, and the other’s expression eased, “Indeed one of our own. Did the Priest send you?”
Priest? Su Chen’s expression shifted slightly, he deliberately lowered his voice and nodded: “That’s right.”
“The sacred object is in here, you should sense it, take it.”
The other showed no defenses and handed the item over.
The feeling of being trusted is great, Su Chen thought to himself, reaching out to take the Metal Box.
With a swing of his hand, Qing Suo swept across, the head fell, its pupils gradually dilating.
“Wonder what this is inside?” Su Chen examined it briefly, about to toss it into the Storage Space when his movement paused.
He looked up toward the end of this black alley, where two figures stood.
“Did the Priest send others too?” One of them seemed puzzled.
Su Chen’s heart jumped—this voice was too familiar, it was Zhou Xian!
He cursed inwardly, not expecting this guy to show up, and even less so this quickly.
“Give me the item.” He reached out, tone indifferent; the headless corpse on the ground wasn’t enough to alert him.
Because the Follower beside him had already confirmed the other was one of their own; as for fratricide, it was very common within the Cult of the Strange God.
“The Priest sent us too.” The Heituo Follower beside him helpfully explained, “This friend is very strong, better for us to take it.”
“Understood.” Su Chen lowered his voice, walking over step by step, then noticed the other was missing an arm, life aura weak, injuries seemingly not recovered.
His figure seems somewhat familiar?
Zhou Xian frowned slightly, watching the other approach, and reached out to take the Metal Box.
Su Chen handed it over, but his Mental Power in his mind surged wildly, condensing into a needle that stabbed fiercely at the target before him.
Buzz!
Su Chen only felt a pounding headache, his Mental Power like crashing into a stone wall—the gap was too great, Zhou Xian’s mental resilience was extremely high.
But he was currently in a heavily injured state.
“Hm?” Zhou Xian felt like he’d been pricked by a needle, dazed for a moment, and by the time he reacted, Qing Suo was already whipping toward his face, carrying surging gale power, fast and fierce!
“Seeking death!” Zhou Xian’s face raged, electric arcs flashing in his pupils, blazing lightning erupting from his body surface.
