102: Ultra-long-range precision strike, the truth comes to light.

At this moment, the tailor donned a sinister expression, radiating a dark aura.

He muttered to himself, slowly approaching the two with scissors in hand...

...“Who should I start with? Both are excellent materials for making clothes... wonderful...”

Hearing his words,

Pedro, who had been afflicted, instantly became cross-eyed, saliva unconsciously drooling from the corner of his mouth.

He gesticulated wildly, shouting, “Clothes! New clothes! Roro wants new clothes!”

Saying this, he even spread his arms, wanting to pounce into the tailor’s embrace!

But as soon as he took a step, a large hand grabbed him by the scruff of his neck and pulled him back.

Chen Beixuan threw Pedro behind him with a look of disdain, then wiped his hands on a nearby hanging garment.

Seeing this scene,

The sinister smile on the tailor’s face instantly froze.

He exclaimed in horror, “You’re actually fine?!”

Chen Beixuan tapped his staff, saying dismissively,

“Is it strange? It’s just that your strength is too weak.”

“Chaos Spear - Light!”

A holy spear radiating a terrifying aura appeared above his back, locking directly onto the tailor!

Aubrey was terrified, without the slightest hesitation.

He raised his hand and tore apart the fixed-point teleportation talisman on his chest!

Whoosh!

Swoosh!

The spear pierced through an afterimage, but it was a step too late!

Aubrey successfully teleported out!

Chen Beixuan raised an eyebrow at this, but he wasn't worried.

The locked target attribute automatically tracks regardless of distance; the opponent couldn’t escape!

Sure enough,

The spear that had missed suddenly turned sharply, shattering the shop window glass and flying skyward!

Chen Beixuan immediately grabbed Pedro, who was playing with a ball of yarn nearby, and went outside to summon the Myriad Realms Kun!

After climbing onto its wing, he immediately followed the golden light trail in the sky, giving chase!

The Myriad Realms Kun accelerated sharply, the rushing wind making his ears ring.

If you slowed it down, you could even see the ripples on Pedro’s face from the wind, and the trail of drool reaching his ears...

In the blink of an eye, they vanished above the City of Radiance...

......

Inside a dilapidated straw hut five kilometers from the City of Radiance.

Aubrey appeared accompanied by spatial fluctuations.

As soon as he emerged, he gasped for air.

Recalling the terrifying power of that spear just now, he couldn't help but shiver.

“Good thing my hand speed was fast, I almost died there...”

After calming down slightly, he pondered his next move.

His identity, painstakingly cultivated for 10 years, had been exposed, making it impossible to return.

That old man had already targeted him, so he couldn't stay in the City of Radiance.

He planned to escape quickly and then move to another city to start anew.

Having made up his mind,

Aubrey retrieved a pre-prepared robe from a box under the floorboards, shook off the dust, and draped it over himself.

Creak...

He pulled open the dilapidated door, ready to leave.

But when he looked up, he was instantly scared out of his wits!

He saw several golden spears forming long curves, heading straight for him!

His face turned pale; he wanted to escape but there was simply no time!

“No!!!!”

Puff puff puff puff...

True Damage -228067, Soul Kill -172800, -228067, ...

Aubrey’s health bar was instantly emptied, and he fell to his knees with a thud!

Several pillars of light erupted on the spot...

The remaining spears automatically locked onto small monsters in the wilderness until the spears were exhausted...

Not long after, a large shadow enveloped the small straw hut; the Myriad Realms Kun had arrived.

Chen Beixuan slid to the ground and stepped forward to collect the dropped items.

[You obtained purple equipment [Cursed Gauntlets] [Cursed Robe]!]

[You obtained blue, green, and white equipment x28!]

[You obtained quest item [Aubrey's Plan Log]!]

[You obtained class change item [Blood of Curse]!]

The equipment Aubrey dropped was all Level 30, so he didn't even bother to look.

However, the appearance of a class change item did surprise him a little.

------

[Blood of Curse]: Orange Class Change Item

Description: Use to initiate a class change quest. Complete to change to the hidden class [Dark Curselord]. Tradable.

------

It had to be said.

If it were a one-on-one battle of the same level, a Curselord was indeed very strong.

A 90% attribute reduction was unbearable for anyone.

But the downside was that its effect on high-level targets significantly decreased, or even became ineffective.

This was evident from how Aubrey’s skills affected the two of them.

Chen Beixuan’s level was high enough to directly immune it.

While Pedro, a Level 30 Silver, was already cross-eyed and drooling...

Just then, Pedro suddenly came up to him, scratching his head and whimpering,

“Grandpa, Grandpa, my head is so itchy, am I growing a brain...?”

“...You need to wash your hair.”

“......”

After sending Pedro away, Chen Beixuan took out the plan log and began to read it.

The truth slowly surfaced.

It turned out that Trick’s encounter was indeed a conspiracy.

It all started 10 years ago.

Ten years ago, the Dark World suddenly cast black sky curtains in various parts of the Human Realm and dispatched a large number of subordinates to infiltrate the Human Realm.

They secretly gathered intelligence while using various means to convert humans into the Dark Faction, joining the Dark World.

Trick was one of the victims of this conversion.

The log recorded countless people like Trick, numbering several thousand over 10 years.

This was only Aubrey’s conversion count, which was simply terrifying to think about.

It seemed that the Dark World was also plotting something...

“The Demon Realm, the Demon Realm, the Dark World, all are targeting the Human Realm.”

“Is the Human Realm that appealing?”

Chen Beixuan couldn't help but complain, then lowered his head and continued reading.

The log mentioned a hidden lurking stronghold, located at the junction of several first-tier cities.

It was called Qila Bi Town, primarily used for periodic intelligence exchange and plan handover.

If nothing unexpected happened, that town should be a hidden dungeon.

“Phew... Finally, a clue.”

Chen Beixuan let out a long breath, feeling much lighter.

Given the nature of this quest, the final BOSS would likely be the Lord of Darkness.

He was simply not capable of dealing with him now.

The S-rank hidden quest lived up to its name.

So he planned to stop after clearing the dungeon for the first time, saving it for later.

He closed the log and put it into his backpack.

Suddenly, a desolate wail came from beside him!

He turned to look and immediately burst into laughter and tears.

Pedro stood by a muddy pit full of cow hoof prints, his head covered in foul-smelling mud and water.

He must have believed his words earlier and gone to wash his hair in the mud pit.

At this point, the curse had ended, and Pedro was utterly bewildered, not knowing what he had been doing.

“Master Chen, where did we come from? Is this still the City of Radiance? Ugh~”

“Don’t come closer, go wash yourself clean in the river first, then come back!”

Seeing Pedro approach, Chen Beixuan distastefully stepped back half a step, pointing to the nearby small river and scolding him.

Pedro, seeing this, had no choice but to comply, walking towards the river while retching...

Ten minutes later, cleaned up.

The two re-boarded the Myriad Realms Kun and flew towards Qila Bi Town...

Not long after the two left,

A phantom suddenly emerged from Aubrey’s corpse, traversing into the Dark World at an incredible speed, crossing countless cities, and burrowing into a Land of Darkness.

It finally landed in a hand as black as ink, recounting everything from its life.

In the endless darkness, a pair of eerie blue pupils slowly opened...
