Chapter 36 [Angel Drug] Poured down the drain
Zhang Lingyun explained:
"To break through the fourth level, you must use an auxiliary magic potion."
When I trade with you, you must drink a support potion.
Furthermore, I need to drink another support potion to return to the fourth level.
In other words, if we want you to reach the fourth level, we'll need two more support potions.
Upon hearing this, Xia Youran frowned instantly.
Two bottles of support potions cost a million!
She nudged Zhang Lingyun's shoulder and urged him on:
"Then you'd better go and greet the customers."
Zhang Lingyun was so angry she laughed.
This little devil's tone was as if he were a useless scumbag forcing his girlfriend to work as a prostitute to support the family.
Zhang Lingyun touched her small feet in white socks and reminded her:
"Have you forgotten the time you were followed by crows?"
We have to be careful with this, or we'll both be finished.
Xia Youran immediately lost her spirit and lay down limply.
"Oh dear! You made me so happy for nothing."
-----------------
In the days that followed, Zhang Lingyun continued to attend university classes without permission.
He became increasingly bold in auditing classes, eventually managing to audit the Necromancer school.
Bai Lu did not follow.
She utterly loathed the lifeless atmosphere here.
Zhang Lingyun's initial purpose in auditing the Necromancer course was quite clear.
That is, in order to understand Ding Shuangshuang's abilities, so that when facing her, one can know oneself and one's enemy.
But after attending a few classes, he made an unexpected discovery.
Although the Necromancer School is eerie and cold, many of its spells are exceptionally practical.
The professor giving today's lecture is named "Huang Ku".
The old man's face was as pale as paper, and his dry, disheveled hair was loosely draped over his shoulders.
His eye sockets were deeply sunken, his heavy eye bags drooped downwards, and his face was covered with dry wrinkles.
His skin clung tightly to his bones, and a chilling aura of death enveloped his body.
The spell he's explaining today is "The Basics of Summoning Spirits from the Spirit World".
It is a spell that guides the soul of the deceased from the spirit world back to the mortal world for the summoner to use.
The summoned spirits can serve as servants, guards, experimental assistants, messengers, and so on...
Upon hearing this, Zhang Lingyun's eyes widened instantly.
He keenly sensed that this spell would be very useful to him.
If I could summon a necromancer to represent me in the transaction.
Afterwards, when engaging in transactions using the "meditation method," one's safety will be greatly guaranteed.
But problems also arise.
Summoning various spirits from the spirit world requires at least a third-level spell.
To fully master it, it would take at least several years of arduous study.
He simply doesn't have that much time.
Because Ding Shuangshuang will come knocking on our door in ten days.
Zhang Lingyun listened attentively to this lesson, pondering how to quickly grasp the material.
After class, the students left the classroom one after another.
Zhang Lingyun mingled in the crowd, also preparing to leave quietly.
Suddenly, a hand slapped heavily on his shoulder.
Zhang Lingyun turned around in surprise, only to be met with a punch coming straight at him.
However, he reacted very quickly, raising his hand and grabbing the other person's fist.
Lin Hao spoke with a forced smile:
"Good lad, you're quite skilled."
Zhang Lingyun snorted:
"It's you again. What do you want?"
Even in the necromancy school's teaching building, Zhang Lingyun showed no fear whatsoever.
Lin Hao smiled:
"Nothing else, I just want you to do something for me."
By this time, most of the people in the classroom had already left.
Zhang Lingyun didn't want to get entangled with this person:
"I have something to do, I don't have time."
To his surprise, something hard suddenly pressed against his back.
Immediately following, with a soft "click," Lin Hao released the safety of his pistol.
Zhang Lingyun frowned, thinking to himself that these people were becoming increasingly uncivilized.
It was clearly Ding Shuangshuang's way of using a gun that taught that bastard Lin Hao how to use it.
Left with no other choice, he could only follow Lin Hao's instructions.
After walking up the stairs for several floors, I arrived at a laboratory belonging to the Necromancer School.
A faint stench of decay hung in the air.
The room blends modern medical equipment with props from classical necromancy.
Metal shelves were filled with skeletal specimens, and various internal organs were preserved in glass jars.
The overall atmosphere is gloomy and oppressive; just standing inside makes one feel tense all over.
Zhang Lingyun glanced at him and asked:
"What exactly do you want?"
Lin Hao pointed the gun at him:
"Don't worry, I won't kill you."
"Since Senior Ding has already taken you on as a subordinate, then I'm your 'big brother' now."
Zhang Lingyun snorted coldly, thinking that this person was mentally ill and was just talking nonsense.
Lin Hao brandished the gun in his hand, forcing Zhang Lingyun to open the locker.
They brought out a huge medicine barrel and a bunch of empty medicine bottles.
Lin Hao commanded:
"Pour the medicine from the bucket into bottles."
Zhang Lingyun unscrewed the bucket lid, glanced inside, and asked:
"Are these all 'angel drugs'?"
"That's right, hurry up and do it, or I'll shoot you dead."
This was originally Lin Hao's own job, but Ding Shuangshuang assigned it to him.
But he bumped into Zhang Lingyun in class, and taking advantage of the fact that he had a gun, he wanted to grab him and use him.
Zhang Lingyun nodded slightly:
"Okay, I'll do it."
The next second, he picked up the large bucket and poured all the medicine inside into the sink.
Lin Hao froze on the spot, and it took him a long time to react before he roared:
"You're insane!"
Zhang Lingyun threw away the empty bucket:
"I told you long ago, I would never do such a heinous thing."
Lin Hao was completely enraged and pulled the trigger without hesitation.
A few days ago, Zhang Lingyun might have been dead.
But now, he has broken through to the fourth level of [Meditation Technique] and has also equipped himself with the [Energy Shield] card.
Zhang Lingyun instantly activated the [Energy Shield], and a crisp metallic clang rang out.
The bullet bounced off.
At the same time, he clearly felt that his [magic power] had been depleted.
He instantly understood the principle behind the [Energy Shield].
It converts [magic power] into defense, and automatically consumes magic power when attacked.
Lin Hao pulled the trigger again.
At the same time, Zhang Lingyun launched a counterattack, unleashing a [Lightning Arrow].
Both of them activated their [energy shields] simultaneously, blocking each other's attacks.
It seems that Lin Hao specifically strengthened his defense after being beaten up last time.
This prolonged stalemate is extremely disadvantageous for Zhang Lingyun.
Because the opponent consumes bullets, while you consume [magic points].
Zhang Lingyun seized the opportunity.
Suddenly, he bent down and lunged forward, simultaneously activating [Lightning Claw].
He grabbed the other person's pistol, and lightning flowed through the weapon.
Lin Hao let out a piercing scream.
Zhang Lingyun took the opportunity to throw him to the ground, then flipped over and straddled his chest.
Then he swung his fist again, this time hitting extremely hard, knocking out several of Lin Hao's teeth.
Just then, the laboratory door was suddenly pushed open.
Ding Shuangshuang suddenly walked in and coldly shouted:
"Stop it, all of you!"
With a slight lift of her fingertip, a burst of green lightning shot out.
Zhang Lingyun instinctively retreated rapidly.
The electric light shone on the metal lab bench, and the surface was instantly corroded and collapsed.
