Nobody told me this wasn't a game.

Cultivation level: Seventh Realm (500%).

Talents: Gestapo (Level 15), Bountiful Body (Level 15), Inflict Pain (Level 10), Intuition (Level 9).

Skills: Melancholy Blues (Level 15), Forged Evidence (Level 15), Unpredictable Whip Technique (Level 12), Northern School Capture (Level 7).

Recommended development path: A brilliant advisor and capable assistant; her unique skill set will help you achieve dominance.

When I kissed Lychee before, I only saw her talent, but not her skills.

I kissed Blood Rose and even saw her skills.

can only say--

Lychees were still reserved.

Zuo Chang looked at the extremely pertinent "suggestions for training direction" and simply ignored them. He was no longer the same person he used to be, and his perspective on problems was naturally different.

Then let Blood Rose remain hidden in the shadows, handling his shady dealings...

It's possible, but not too much.

Looking at her talent, she's not entirely unsuitable for combat:

"Plump and Beautiful Body": Your skin is smooth and fair, and your figure is flawless, with large, white breasts and a beautiful figure, making you a true beauty. However, because your body is too gorgeous, all your stats are inferior to those of adventurers of the same level.

"Inflict Pain": The physical blows you inflict on the target will cause the target unbearable pain.

"Intuition": You have an exceptional sense of smell, and you can always guess what the other person is thinking and predict their actions.

It's a bit of a shame about Blood Rose as a follower.

The talent "Intuition" is very suitable for combat, as it allows one to anticipate the opponent's actions. There is no doubt how much of an advantage it can bring in close-quarters combat.

Level 9 isn't considered low.

If an ordinary adventurer possesses this, they can at least serve as a main assault soldier in a mid-to-upper-level adventure group!

Unfortunately, the Blood Rose also has a "plump body".

In Zuo Chang's previous view, this was a complete negative buff. What's the use of having a good figure?

A single attribute reduction is a death sentence!

Now it seems……

It's pretty good, all white and big, very cute.

Using evolution points to upgrade her voluptuous body to the maximum level back then was somewhat of a wise move.

When Zuo Chang obtained the Blood Rose, it was early in the game. At that time, he hadn't figured out how to play the game yet, knew very little about talents, and basically followed the system's guidance.

He's practically a walking library now; he can talk to anyone about anything in the game's mechanics.

Blood Rose's "Northern School Capturing Techniques" and "Unpredictable Whip Techniques" were both given to her by Zuo Chang when he only had a superficial understanding of them.

Looking at it from today's perspective—

It's actually quite inappropriate.

He looked at the uneasy Blood Rose and said, "Do you know where your strengths lie?"

Blood Rose replied without hesitation: "General, loyalty. My excellence lies in my absolute loyalty to you."

Zuo Chang waved his hand repeatedly: "Your advantage lies in 'illusion.' In my experience, the talents of 'plump body' and 'intuition' enhance the performance of illusion. Plump body can reduce others' vigilance towards you, and intuition can help you find better opportunities to unleash your skills. You should learn some illusion techniques."

Blood Rose blinked, looking somewhat bewildered, yet also adorable.

She had no idea what Zuo Chang was talking about. Looking down at her full breasts, she asked, "Does the general think... my body is 'plump'?"

Zuo Chang was taken aback and gave up explaining.

He can see the text, he can see the "game information", but others cannot.

Zuo Chang's words may seem too advanced for others to understand.

He stopped talking and simply said, "Sky City has illusion skill stones, and they're quite effective. Come with me, I'll take you to get them."

Blood Rose nodded in agreement.

……

……

Drainage system.

Ma Wu stood before a corpse, looking at the writing on the drainpipe wall:

[Old Blind Eyes returns to his peak, and here, he slays Ghostback Ma Wen with his sword.]

Every word is like a dragon!

His subordinate examined the stiffened corpse on the ground, bleeding from all seven orifices, and said, "Lord Ma Wu, this is indeed Old Blind Eyes. The Sword Saint Old Blind Eyes of the Post Office!"

Ma Wu's gaze was cold as he swept his eyes around: "Where is my brother's body?"

"So far, only one head has been found... I have sent people to search, and we should have results soon."

Ma Wu was silent for a moment, then said, "Unbelievable! Although Ma Wen is only at the fifth realm, he is full of energy and has a strong body. Dealing with an old sword saint whose cultivation has fallen to the sixth realm and who is frail and old should not be a problem... He actually lost? How could that be?"

The writing on the wall still retains a sharp, sword-like intent.

Ma Wu understood that it must have been carved by the old blind man.

He couldn't possibly have left such a lie while on his deathbed; wouldn't that have made him a laughingstock?

His younger brother must have really died by the old blind man's sword!

Ma Wu turned to look at the woman standing respectfully to one side, Da Guangming: "Ms. Fenggu, could you recount the events of that time?"

Feng Gu lowered his head slightly: "I teamed up with Zuo Chang and Senior Ma Wen to enter the drainage system. Soon after, we encountered a group of powerful enemies. In the chaos, I got separated from the other two... I don't know what happened after that."

Ma Wu then asked, "The drainage system isn't a safe place. You five from 'Wind, Flower, Snow, and Moon' should have come, right? Why didn't the other four come with you?"

Feng Gu continued, "I misjudged the situation. I thought..."

"You think that with my brother around, there shouldn't be any major problems?"

"Yes, it is……"

Ugh!

What else can be said now that things have come to this?

"Lord Mawu!"

A slightly somber shout rang out, and a fully armed guard strode over, saying, "A secret passage has been discovered ahead."

Ma Wu frowned: "A secret passage?"

"Yes. It's a very well-hidden passage. The brothers found some bloodstains on one wall, so they searched the area carefully and found an entrance under the light. We don't know where it leads... Why don't you go in and take a look?"

"lead the way!"

Ma Wu didn't hesitate.

He looked at Feng Gu and said, "Ms. Feng Gu, come here too."

"……Yes."

Feng Gu followed Ma Wu into the depths of the drainage system.

Upon arriving at the location, they found seven or eight guards already on high alert. Following the guards' directions, Feng Gu indeed found bloodstains on a wall.

It looked like it was punched.

Someone went mad and smashed the wall in this place, leaving behind mottled, bloody fist marks.

When Ma Wu reached the light of the safety lamp, he saw a hidden entrance.

He asked, "What's down there?"

The guard replied, "It's not clear yet. After discovering the entrance, I went down to explore. It's clearly a man-made passageway, with lighting on both sides, seemingly leading to somewhere in the instance! I was worried about triggering some mechanism, so I stopped exploring and came back to report to you."

"well-done!"

Ma Wu grinned, revealing his sinister nature.

“Since it’s a secret passage, it’s worth exploring! You, you go back and report. The rest of you, including Vice Commander Feng, you come down with me!”

"Yes!"

"Yes!"

The guards responded in unison and followed Ma Wu into the secret passage.

Feng Gu believed that she should refuse Ma Wu's request.

She was not Ma Wu's subordinate, but rather the vice-captain of an adventure team, and therefore had no obligation to accompany him.

but……

Wouldn't it seem guilty to leave now?

Feng Gu hesitated, unable to make a decision. After a moment, she sighed softly and said, "Never mind! I'll go with you; it's not safe to go back alone..."

Thank you Ren Fanghua and Qierxi Jiang for the donations! Thank you both!

Chapter 76 How to Wear the Elemental Suit

"The skill stones are in this pool."

Following his memory, Zuo Chang led Blood Rose through a maze of twists and turns until they arrived at a fountain.

Sky City has been abandoned for a long time, and the fountain pool in front of us is filled with thick mud.

Zuo Chang had already started taking off his shoes: "Go inside and look for it."

How can this be!

How could the General be allowed to step into such a filthy pool!

Blood Rose pressed Zuo Chang's hand and said, "General, let me do it. Your feet should not step into such a filthy place."

Zuo Chang glanced at her, a hint of helplessness in his calm eyes: "Okay. Go ahead."

"Yes."
