Chapter 38 Razor
Having decided to ask Danica about the insects when he had the chance, Li Ang lowered his head and began to inscribe a [Concealment] magic circle on the guns on the table.

Soon, a pistol with a simple magic circle drawn on its side came into his view.

However, after Li Ang picked up the pistol and channeled energy into it, he fell silent: "."

Success was achieved, but unfortunately, the gun itself was concealed, not the bullet.

Looking at the somewhat blurry gun in his hand, he couldn't help but offer himself a word of comfort:
'In any case, it's a youthful version of the Wind King's Barrier; it should still come in handy when melee weapons are available later.'

However, there is a solution: engrave alchemical arrays on the bullets.

However, dealing with bullet-sized objects would be extremely troublesome; even a slight scratch would lead to failure.

After fiddling with it for more than an hour, he finally finished carving the bullets for a magazine.

[Perform basic alchemy work, profession experience +51].

At this rate, the [Craftsman Apprentice (Alchemy)] job level will soon be raised.

However, Li Ang's energy is limited. With more and more jobs available, the time allotted to each job is limited, so he has to make choices.

'If only I could create multiple shadow clones.'

That way, you can grind several professions at the same time.

With a touch of envy, Li Ang closed his eyes and began his homework for the evening.

[Circulate your Qi, gain +4 to your profession experience].

[Manipulate the Qi within your body, skill experience +1].

Two days have passed.

During this time, Li Ang did not reveal that he had learned alchemy; it was better to keep a low profile when necessary.

Besides practicing alchemy, he would occasionally spar with Danica. Unfortunately, after reaching the [Mastery] level in the Reverse Life Triple Realm, the effect was not as good as before, but it could still provide some experience.

Evening, Public Security Bureau.

"Finally off work," Danica said, stretching at her workstation with a sense of relief. "Li Ang, the previous bonuses have been paid out today."

"Want to go get a drink?"

The reward for capturing Higgins has been distributed to the personal accounts of Danica's team members. Those who contributed more, such as Li Ang and Danica, received 30,000 Star Coins, while the other members received 15,000.

Thirty thousand Starshine Coins is equivalent to ten months' salary for an ordinary Security Bureau operative. Li Ang now understands why Danica is still going to work despite her suffering.

Before he could even speak, Danica shook her head: "Forget it, just thinking about it is exhausting. I'll just stay home and make do."

"..." Li Ang glanced at the tall woman who was swaying as she stood up, and couldn't help but complain, "Captain, you're always so tired, did you go out to steal at night?"

Upon hearing this, Danica replied without turning her head, "Putting aside the fact that money in personal accounts can't be stolen, most people in the city aren't as rich as me."

Hearing her say that, Li Ang thought about it and it seemed to make sense. The standard of living on the colony was not very high to begin with, and the basic salary of the security bureau agents was already considered to be above average, not to mention that his captain didn't seem to have any hobbies.

Despite spending most of her time at work and staying at home, Danica's figure hasn't changed at all.

After returning 1,000 Star Coins to Danica, Li Ang was unsure what to do with the remaining prize money.

He did want to buy a car, but the problem was that he didn't have a federal driver's license, and as a sheriff's agent, he didn't have time to take the test.

However, there's still a long way to go in purchasing career information unless Li Ang can find a cheaper way.

Just as he was pondering how to spend the money, Cole had already driven him back to his dorm.

"Brother, we're here," Cole said, turning around from the driver's seat.

Li Ang immediately snapped out of his daze: "Thank you, Cole, for taking me back all this time."

"It's okay, I don't live that far away, it's just on my way. I'll be going now, bro." Watching Cole walk away, Li Ang couldn't help but sigh.

'How come there aren't even any shared bikes in the interstellar era?'

My first day reminiscing about Ofo bikes.

Back in his dormitory, Li Ang began his daily routine.

Imprint alchemical arrays on the bullets, then circulate your inner energy.

The process was boring, but Li Ang was full of motivation when he saw his experience slowly increasing on the career panel.

late at night.

A short figure suddenly appeared on the balcony.

He quietly watched Li Ang sitting cross-legged on the bed, and couldn't help but mutter, "After observing him for so many days, why does this kid always sleep like this?"

He didn't dwell on the matter too much and gently pushed open the glass door to the balcony.

The glass door slid slowly without making a sound.

'As expected, this kid's strength is no match for Danica's; he wasn't even on guard.'

Just as the short figure was thinking this, Li Ang, who was sitting cross-legged on the bed, suddenly opened his eyes.

The next moment, a white palm slapped towards the short figure.

A faint rustling sound filled the room. Seeing Li Ang suddenly leap forward, the short figure's pupils constricted. He then swiftly dodged Li Ang's attack and quickly spoke:

"Stop, stop, stop! I meant no harm."

Upon hearing this, Li Ang did not stop.

They came to his house in the middle of the night and said they meant no harm?
Fortunately, he now uses Qi circulation instead of sleep, otherwise he might not have been able to detect the other party.

Of course, a large part of the credit goes to the calmness and slow recovery.

Seeing the young man attacking him again, the short figure flipped his right hand and grabbed a dagger.

laugh--

The sound of clothes tearing rang out. Li Ang glanced at the small wounds on his left arm, his expression unchanged.

"Are you calm now?" The short figure was about to say something when he saw that the wound he had just caused had vanished without a trace. "?"

Seeing that Li Ang was still about to make a move, he stepped back and said quickly, "I am Razor. If the police want to catch the person behind me, then you should stop now."

At this moment, Li Ang, who hadn't spoken since the short figure appeared, suddenly spoke up: "Wouldn't it be the same if I captured you?"

"My profession is [Assassin]. If you think you can catch me, then give it a try."

As he spoke, the short figure tossed the dagger in his hand.

Li Ang fell silent upon hearing this. Based on the outcome of their earlier exchange, the short figure who called himself "Razor" was indeed very fast. If he had been focused on running away, Li Ang might not have been able to catch him.

Thinking this, he walked to the wall and turned on the light: "Is it considered sincere not to even mention Razor's real name?"

Faced with Li Ang's questioning, the short, ugly man grinned, revealing a mouthful of yellow teeth: "Wild dogs don't need names, Razor is my real name."

"Then why don't you call yourself a stray dog?"
