My Professions Have Too Much Personality - Chapter 218 - 142: Becoming a Reverser, a Nascent System, a Perpetual Motion Machine?
Chapter 218: Chapter 142: Becoming a Reverser, a Nascent System, a Perpetual Motion Machine?
’If Old Qin and Old Sang knew about this, they’d probably lose their minds.’ Su Chen chuckled and put away the Talent Detection Device.
Then, he glanced at his status panel—
[Cyan Thunder Master: 42%]
[Secret Technique Master: 50%]
[D-level Profound Ice Soul Cleansing Meditation Method—Mastery: 40%]
[D-level Thunder Gang Forging Body Technique—Skilled: 70%]
’Cyan Thunder Master is also almost at 50%. It’s about time I started preparing for my Tier Four Profession promotion,’ Su Chen mused.
Special professions provided continuous benefits after being acquired, and they even grew stronger as his main profession advanced. However, the promotion of his main profession remained the top priority.
The prerequisite for him completing the requirements for other professions was not wasting too much development time on them.
Otherwise, he would be putting the cart before the horse.
Although one couldn’t just casually exchange for a profession from the Judicial Court, given his status, they would definitely give it to him if he insisted.
That wasn’t the problem. The problem was—
’My reserves of Deceitful God’s Power are too low. I only have two portions of Low-tier Black Tuo’s Power, which is completely useless for a Tier Four Profession.’
Su Chen frowned. Because of Jiang Shu Mo, he had been keeping a low profile and hadn’t dared to secretly visit the remaining Black Tuo branch nests.
Although it was on his agenda, he couldn’t think of a good solution for the short term. He didn’t know if Jiang Shu Mo was still watching him, so it was best to be cautious.
’If all else fails, I’ll just have to find a way to openly eliminate them. Wiping out the Deceitful God’s Followers is, after all, absolutely politically correct.’ Thinking this, Su Chen walked out of the Gravity Chamber.
With the requirements for several professions met, he could finally stop feeling that hollow and insecure sensation of having his Physical Strength and Spiritual Power completely drained.
He was in an excellent mood. He had No. Zero contact the cafeteria to deliver a table full of delicacies and began to feast.
“…Tsk, not as good as Gu Bing’s cooking. The skill is one thing, but the ingredients are another. At the very least, the meat Gu Bing sends over definitely isn’t older than I am.” Su Chen shook his head, but he wasn’t that picky yet.
After all, it was prepared for a Core Seed, so the taste was already quite good.
He took a sip of the Golden Flowing Sand left over from Yuanqing Day. Old Bai had left in a hurry and hadn’t taken it with him the next day, so Su Chen would have a taste every now and then.
After eating and drinking his fill, Su Chen let out a satisfied burp and remarked, “Nutritional Potions just can’t provide this kind of psychological satisfaction.”
He had No. Zero summarize the latest news. On the Judicial Court’s internal web forum, everyone was discussing a major recent event.
“A public execution for Priest Black Tuo?”
Su Chen was surprised and had No. Zero elaborate. It was an announcement the Judicial Court had made just two days ago, a joint announcement with the Security Department.
It stated that in order to deter the increasingly rampant Deceitful God Sect, they had decided to publicly execute the captured Priest Black Tuo.
’The one I caught… er, the one I discovered?’ Su Chen read the announcement carefully and found that it was indeed him.
It specifically noted that he was captured by a team led by the Judicial Court’s Core Seed, Su Chen.
’They really know how to make me look good…’ Su Chen muttered to himself. ’A public execution… why does this feel so strange?’
’It seems like they’re fishing. Fishing with a straight hook. Can they really catch anything?’
He was highly skeptical, but then he thought about how fanatical the Deceitful God’s Followers were. It was hard to say; they might actually take the bait.
To them, a Priest was a Divine Spirit’s representative on earth. How could they allow him to suffer such a humiliation?
This matter had nothing to do with him. Whether it was a trap or not, he had no intention of going to watch the show.
’Still, I should first see if the Black Tuo Followers make a move. What if they act rashly and use up all their Deceitful Artifacts? Where would I find more Black Tuo Deceitful Artifacts then?’
On second thought, Su Chen realized the matter did concern him after all, and he couldn’t help but feel a little worried.
Returning to the Gravity Chamber, he closed the door. His body gradually faded into the void, then slowly transformed into the “Priest Black Tuo” state.
During the process, he was still thinking. Now that he had successfully become a Reverser, with the help of Gourmet and his steadily increasing profession development…
…without doing anything, he estimated he could now hide in the interlayer for over an hour—an improvement of nearly five or six times.
’If I keep consuming condensed Nutrient Liquid in the spatial interlayer, wouldn’t that make me a perpetual motion machine?’ Su Chen suddenly thought. Condensed liquid reduced digestion time compared to normal food.
’Although it still takes time to convert it into stored nutrients, as long as my body’s consumption isn’t too high, I could really achieve a state similar to perpetual motion.’
Tsk, tsk. Half an hour ago, he could only hide in the spatial interlayer for about ten minutes. In the blink of an eye, he had become a “perpetual motion machine.” The synergy between professions… he marveled once again.
’Let me see what the Believers are… Huh!?’
The moment he completely transformed into Priest Black Tuo, Su Chen, still in the spatial interlayer, snapped his head around, staring in astonishment in a certain direction.
’What is that? It’s right here in the Judicial Court, and it’s so close?’
It was a sensation he had never experienced before. It wasn’t a Deceitful Artifact, nor was it a Believer, but it was extremely intense and clear, as if it were right in front of him.
’It’s not Priest Black Tuo. He’s under Judge You’s seal, so I can’t sense him at all. Besides, this feeling is different.’
Su Chen’s brows furrowed. Compared to the vague feelings from before, this intense and clear sensation even reminded him of when he was in Southwind, sensing the Divine Statue up close.
’How can this be? It wasn’t there before. It must be something that Old Chong and the others are already monitoring…’
Su Chen believed that Chong Jingtian and the others must be aware of it. The sensation was too strong; the Judicial Court’s detection devices must have picked it up.
He retracted his state and emerged from the void. After a moment’s hesitation, he went to the Potion Room and filled his stomach with Nutrient Liquid Potion.
Once prepared, he went out the door and headed in the direction of the sensation he had just felt.
He turned left, then right.
“Su Chen…”
Someone greeted him on the path, and Su Chen nodded in response.
He hadn’t been out and about for a while, yet more people seemed to recognize him. The vast majority of those who passed by would greet him.
This strange sense of familiarity reminded him of the first time he had walked through the Judicial Court with Ming Lin.
’I don’t think I’ve done anything special recently…’
As he walked, Su Chen couldn’t help but wonder. He opened his Wristband and scrolled through it for a while before he understood.
It turned out to be because of Wei Yinsuo’s reappearance. Previously, when there had been no news of Wei Yinsuo, the information about two cities being blood-sacrificed was completely suppressed, and no one knew about it.
But once Wei Yinsuo showed up, people were bound to wonder what kind of mission this Chief Judge had undertaken to end up so grievously injured.
Some information then began to surface. Wei Yinsuo’s failure was one part of it, but the foresight of the other Chief Judge, Xia Hanshi, was another.
By extension, Su Chen was also being regarded with increasing importance.
’So that’s how it is…’ After summarizing the general news from the forums, Su Chen figured out the whole story.
The number of Judges he encountered along the way dwindled, which meant he was reaching a more remote area of the Judicial Court.
’Is that… Xue Fei?’ Su Chen paused, spotting a figure in the distance walking into a white building ahead.
The thing he had sensed earlier was also in roughly this location.
’The medical department? It couldn’t be… Wei Yinsuo, could it?’ He looked up at the name on the building, and his heart leaped. He had a strong, unsettling premonition.
He hadn’t been following Wei Yinsuo’s recent situation, but a quick search yielded results.
Due to the severity of his injuries, he had been staying in the medical department ever since he returned to the Judicial Court.
Su Chen was alarmed and uncertain. ’Has that guy fallen? Did he become one of Black Tuo’s people? Do Chong Jingtian and the others know?’
