Chapter 835: Chapter 418 White Horse!_3

This is the secret base of the Tower of Tarot.

She had completed her teleportation here before, entering the Primordial Ruins.

“Back so soon?”

Xu Xingke asked in surprise.

“…Yes, quite quickly,” the Swordswoman said, her expression complex, “There’s a pair of gloves that I need you to identify.”

“Good haul?” Xu Xingke smiled.

“Thanks to your student, otherwise I don’t know if I could have made it back alive,” the Swordswoman said.

“What happened?”

“This time it seemed serious, not like the minor tests before.”

“…The monsters were strong?”

“Very strong. I had to unleash my full strength and barely held on until the Tarot Cards activated.”

“That’s troublesome.”

…

On the other side.

Shen Ye also breathed a sigh of relief.

When the Swordswoman walked out of the door leading to the outside, the secret passage along with the warehouse disappeared.

—It seems the ruins only allow one person to return through that path.

What about the others?

Shen Ye silently studied the map, suddenly noticing a location marked as “Abandoned Exchange.”

The name sounded interesting.

It wasn’t far according to the map, and there weren’t many monsters on the way.

But why should I take a risk?

Two Professionals were wiped out in an instant.

If I encounter other Ultimate Creation monsters on the way, surviving would be difficult.

Wait—

Shen Ye carefully examined the map.

The screen was filled with monsters.

—Apart from me, only one Professional is still alive.

This Professional is impressive, managing to fight the monsters for a long time.

Should I go help?

Although I’m not strong, I have a revolver that can temporarily disable a monster’s ability to attack.

While Shen Ye was thinking, his eyes suddenly sharpened.

He saw the Professional marked as “Heavy Hammer Knight” on the map, but during combat, the label suddenly changed to “Voice Spirit Mage”, then to “Five Elements Technique Practitioner”, and then to “Wind and Thunder Warrior.”

He has four Professions!

Shen Ye was shocked, then saw the Professional’s label still madly changing.

In just a few breaths, his label had changed dozens of times.

The monster next to him suddenly stopped in place.

—The monster isn’t pursuing anymore!

Strange.

Did he defeat the monster?

But the monster’s mark still appeared on the map.

The Professional gradually moved away from the monster.

—Now his label is “Magic Slayer.”

This label slowly moved on the map, then suddenly sped up, rushing toward Shen Ye’s direction.

Shen Ye felt deep shadows rising in his heart, his spirit becoming murky.

This was a strange feeling.

—As if bound by something invisible, slowly sinking down into decay and death.

So far away, and it can still affect me?

Shen Ye took a deep breath, pressed his hand into the void, and shouted lowly:

“Gate!”

A Gate of Heaven quietly appeared.

Using the distance between himself and the “Abandoned Exchange” as an obstacle, then stepping through the gate.

In the next instant.

Shen Ye appeared in a dark room.

Looking through the tightly closed doors and windows, he could see a giant figure on the distant ridge.

It was a humanoid monster, named “Despair Manifestor” on the map.

Frankly speaking, it resembled some sort of segmented insect more than a human, but it strangely had a human’s physique.

Shen Ye slightly closed his eyes, observing the map again.

He saw that the Professional suddenly stopped.

He stood still, as if probing something—

Two patrolling monsters appeared from both front and back, trapping him.

The battle began!

Shen Ye relaxed.

The cursed feeling that loomed over him suddenly vanished.

—Something’s not right!

Clearly, the opponent did something.

It’s impressive, to affect me from such a distance without even knowing who I am.

While paying attention to the activity on the map, Shen Ye looked around the abandoned building.

There were three rows of long filing cabinets, a large desk, with two chairs behind it.

Shen Ye pulled open the cabinets to look.

They were empty.

But the desk, cabinets, and chairs were clean as if recently wiped.

It seemed someone had worked here before.

But now it was deserted.

Indeed it’s the “Abandoned Exchange.”

Shen Ye pondered for a few breaths, suddenly recalling the words of the Brotherhood leader:

“Whenever the Primordial Ruins appear, our existence in the Nightmare World is forcibly drawn into the ruins, acting as a neutral party to provide various supports for the team battle.”

Neutral party.

But—

There’s no one here.

Shen Ye crossed his arms, lost in thought for a few breaths.

The existence of the Nightmare World…

I have one in my hand.

“Big Skeleton.”

Shen Ye called out.

The void opened, the Big Skeleton landed in the room, warily looking around.

“What’s the matter? Are we fighting?”

“Not for now, just stand behind that desk.”

“Why?”

“I don’t know, just trying.”

“…Alright.”

Big Skeleton knew well that Shen Ye’s mind didn’t operate on the same frequency as normal people, and didn’t bother to ask further, simply standing behind the desk.

One breath.

Two breaths.

Three breaths.

“Hey? What’s going on!” Big Skeleton suddenly exclaimed.

Suddenly, a set of formal black suits appeared on it, with a red tie at the throat.

Immediately after.

A balance scale quietly appeared on the desk.

There’s a play!

“Do you have any prompt now?” Shen Ye asked.

“I just received a message in my head, seems like I can conduct underground deals here with Professionals, specifically selling some equipment enhancement proofs.”
