Night falls.
Su Li wakes up from the Dragon God Temple and returns to the real world.
The surging dragon power echoes around him.
After stretching his muscles, the sound of crackling beans fills his ears.
Entering the bathroom, Su Li washes his face and feels refreshed and full of energy.
He puts on a clean black double-breasted coat that symbolizes his identity as a night watchman.
Su Li inserts the Ghost Left into the gun holster and fastens the thief's belt.
After putting the Lost Blade into his pocket, Su Li neatly folds the Noble's Scarf and puts it into the pocket of his jacket.
Fully dressed, Su Li reluctantly looks at the box full of golden coins, extends his left hand, and flicks a coin into the air.
A crisp sound rings out.
The void splits open.
Melin Alyssa extends her hand from the Spirit Realm, fanning four pairs of wings with different styles, and catches the coin steadily.
"You're looking for me, what's the matter?"
The four overlapping female voices reverberate in the sealed room.
Looking up at the Spirit Realm Four Empress, Su Li says:
"Yes, I want my money back."
His gaze fixes on the box of coins, and Melin Alyssa wrinkles her nose and sniffs forcefully.
She remains silent and quickly sucks the coin into her mouth.
Clang clang clang...
The coins collide in the air, making a crisp sound.
Melin Alyssa pats her stomach and says satisfied:
"In the future, this kind of gold coin payment can be discounted."
Su Li is puzzled by her words.
Melin Alyssa ignores him and walks straight towards the void, disappearing directly into the sealed room.
He takes out a coin and carefully examines it in his hand, but can't figure out anything. Suddenly, Su Li has a realization and mutters to himself:
"The special feature... Could it be because these coins were sacrificed in the Dragon God Temple and contaminated with Aobie's aura?"
Thinking of the contract he made with Melin Alyssa that day, Su Li touches his nose.
"This Spirit Realm Four Empress has one-fourth dragon bloodline. Could she be Aobie's illegitimate daughter?"
"No, it shouldn't be like that."
While Su Li is pondering, the iron door is lightly knocked.
The person who comes is Sorl, a member of the Red Gloves who is not often seen in the church.
He is still wearing the black double-breasted coat, and his flowing golden hair is still messy.
His unique brass mechanical arm knocks on the iron door.
"Bro, why didn't you come for dinner? It's time for the promotion ceremony."
"Ah, I forgot about the time while practicing. I'm coming now."
Su Li, who has already dressed neatly after removing the Spiritual Wall, walks out while asking:
"Sorl, I don't often see you in the church. What are you usually busy with?"
This one-handed swordsman rubs his eyes with his right hand and sighs helplessly:
"I'm on duty outside, sitting in the police station every day. Ah! There have been too many mysterious incidents recently, and I don't even have time to play Extraordinary Cards."
As a newcomer, Su Li hasn't encountered many cases.
He curiously asks:
"What kind of things are happening?"
Sorl walks side by side with Su Li and casually says:
"Don't mention it. Our Serede is next to the Dark Forest, and there are extraordinary people, adventurers, and poachers coming every day."
"You usually stay in the church and haven't encountered many tasks."
"A few streets in the south are chaotic. One day when I'm on duty, I'll take you for a walk."
Su Li laughs. He hasn't had much contact in this area.
After all, he is an official extraordinary person, belonging to the Night Church.
Besides coming to the church, practicing, fighting, and attending classes, he just buys groceries and takes a carriage home.
His life is similar to that of an ordinary person, and he doesn't have the opportunity to interact with adventurers.
Thinking of this, Su Li nods and says:
"Okay, when you're free, I'll go for a walk with Brother Sorl and do some field work. By the way, I'll buy a few sets of Extraordinary Cards."
Su Li has money now.
Search bit.ly/3iBfjkV for the original.
This time, he went on a mission with Chilov.
In addition to the agreed-upon 100 gold pounds, deducting the 3300 pounds paid to the messenger Miss, plus the summoning fee of 2 gold pounds, he also earned 198 pounds from the Storm Church, totaling 298 pounds.
In addition, he officially owns a 10% stake in Chilov's East District Factory, but that is a long-term investment and he won't receive any profits for now.
When it comes to Extraordinary Cards, Sorl's eyes light up.
"Do you know how to play?"
"I learned it. I played with our captain on the night shift." Su Li answers.
Sorl looks like a kindred spirit and rubs Su Li's shoulder while pressing the button of the cable ladder with his mechanical arm:
"One day, I'll take you to play with some valuable cards."
"You can win some rare limited edition cards."
...
"Do these things still have limited edition cards?"
Su Li, who has played enough games as a visitor from another world, didn't expect Sorl, who is in his thirties, to be so obsessed.
He really wants to ask if there are any holographic cards.
Sitting on the cable ladder, Sorl's eyes light up:
"Of course, there are powerful sealing cards, as well as some extraordinary cards of ancient gods. They can even be sold for thousands of gold pounds, and even if you have money, you can't buy them."
Su Li secretly gives him a thumbs up. Sorl must be a player who opens card packs in his world.
The cable ladder quickly reaches the ground, and Su Li follows Sorl into the main hall of the church, only to find that the hall has been closed and filled with night watchmen.
Seeing Su Li's arrival, Chilov, who is in high spirits, laughs heartily:
"Hurry up, we've been waiting for you."
Looking at his companions who sincerely bless him, Su Li walks quickly to Lilith and sits down beside her.
Under the statue of the goddess.
Mourinho, wearing bishop's attire, says:
"Yesterday, under the protection of the goddess, our heroes Chilov and Su Li killed the seventh-ranked cultist of the Blood Hand Sect, the 'Bloody Baron' Halo. They eradicated the largest extraordinary material smuggling gang in Serede."
"For Serede, for the East District, they obtained funds for rebuilding factories and schools."
"As members of the Red Gloves, Chilov can be called outstanding. He exchanged countless lives' hopes with sweat and blood."
Thunderous applause fills the room, and the night watchmen below send warm applause to Chilov and Su Li.
Bishop Mourinho stops speaking and gives Chilov enough time to enjoy this moment of honor.
Chilov stands up, feeling emotional. Being a night watchman means constantly facing danger and enduring pollution.
At this moment, he has no regrets.
Su Li also applauds.
Although he has been here for a short time, his feelings are deep after experiencing the life and death battle with Chilov.
In the three years of gang life, Chilov doesn't know how many life and death situations he has experienced.
He fights not only for himself, but also carries the weight of a family on his broad shoulders!
Mourinho doesn't say much. He takes the pink magic potion from Vice Bishop Macher and receives it under the gaze of the statue of the goddess.
Vice Bishop Macher asks with concern:
"Are you ready?"
Chilov takes a deep breath. The pain of taking the magic potion for the first time is still fresh in his memory.
Looking at the swirling potion that symbolizes fate.
Chilov looks at his companions who are sending him blessings, smiles boldly, takes the magic potion, and drinks it in one gulp...
