Witch, I'm really not an ancient god of the deep sea!

Chapter 109 Second-Tier Light and Shadow Professional Card
……

……

Moonstone City, Navy Office.

In an office filled with nautical charts and schedules.

Admiral Old White Ou sat in his chair and lit a cigarette.

He shook his head in annoyance. Most of the recent clashes between the navy and the pirate groups had ended in failure.

They let the pirates run rampant for too long. By the time they were ready to deal with them, these pirates had already grown from small fry into enormous man-eating sharks.

Of the four Emperor Pirate Crews, only the young Ice Demon Pirate Crew is slightly weaker.

Moreover, the navy has been weak for too long due to the naval civil war many years ago.

"It's all just trouble. I should have become a border hunter back then, ventured out to the edge for a couple of years, and I could retire now. Sigh, I should have retired a long time ago."

The old white gull exhaled a puff of smoke.

In his distress, he recalled his wife's nagging.

In order to retrieve her son's body, his wife asked him to post the request to the entire Hunter's Guild and the entire Moonstone City!
Moreover, his wife grabbed his neck and told him that the body must be retrieved before the anniversary of their son's death!
Otherwise, the powerful family behind his wife, who controls the Magic Bullet Company, will personally issue huge commissions!
The old white gull shook its head and muttered to itself:
"The law cannot be violated. If people knew that a naval admiral was using so many resources for a dead person, would that be acceptable...?"

The navy already has a bad reputation, and he doesn't want to add fuel to the fire.

How easy is it to find a superhuman capable of navigating Train No. 8?

Just then, the old white gull suddenly sensed a familiar aura.

The aroma of the cup, the fragrance of the stir-fried dishes.

Could it be?

He got up, pushed open the door, and, filled with curiosity, went downstairs.

Sure enough, in the magnificent reception area downstairs, he saw a young man with black hair and a young woman with white hair.

He didn't recognize the white-haired girl, but judging from her white uniform, she was an outstanding student majoring in magic at the Royal University of Bei.

The black-haired boy was the chef he had commissioned!

The fact that the other party is here means that he has most likely completed the commission!
Peilu hadn't lied to him; this person really could do it... A weight lifted from Old White Gull's heart.

After arriving in Moonstone City, Chen Qi and An went straight to the naval office where Old White Gull was located without hesitation.

The waitress said to Chen Qi and An:

"Please wait a moment, gentlemen. It is Mr. Bai Ou's lunch break. I will go and inform him in an hour."

What are you waiting for! The old white gull immediately spoke up:

"Good afternoon, young chef and young lady."

Old White Ou couldn't wait to complete this commission and then go back to give his wife an explanation.

Chen Qi turned his head in surprise. The two of them had just arrived and had already been discovered.

Ann was also a little nervous, as it was her first time meeting a naval admiral.

Chen Qi blinked at the old white gull.

It's really done... Old White Ou coughed twice: "Gentlemen, please come upstairs with me, let's talk upstairs."

An Wei tilted her head slightly. Why was she being called? She was just passing by!

Chen Qi and An followed the old white gull up the spiral staircase, through the corridor, and arrived at the old white gull's office.

An office piled high with scattered documents.

Chen Qi took the corpse of the Rift Lost from his backpack card.

A corpse so badly mangled it was unrecognizable.

Nevertheless, the old white gull recognized the corpse at a glance and gently stroked its cold, putrid face.

He bent down, tidied the corpse's hair and clothes, picked up a blanket, and covered the body with it.

"Ugh……"

After a long while, the old white gull raised its head and calmly said:

"Thank you, chef. I'll give you the payment for the commission right away."

Old White Gull went to the safe, took out the key, and searched for the professional card.

At dawn, flies rub their hands together, anticipating what's to come.

In the new game, unless you rely on a supernatural organization, obtaining a class card is largely based on luck.

While the bonuses provided by Tier 2 class cards are not substantial, they are sufficient for a player to build a basic combat system.

Hopefully it's a combat-related class card... Chen Qi is looking forward to it. His first-tier class is chef, a pure support class card.

For him, the best option is to obtain a combat-related class card.

Old White Gull took out a card with alternating light and dark colors, along with an exquisite silver box, from his safe.

"Thank you again. Although this class card is slightly different from the orthodox class cards, I hope it is still a pretty good class card."

Old White Gull handed the tin box and card to Chen Qi.

Chen Qi looked at the card.

On the back of the card is a burning candle, casting a deep, dark shadow in the light.

The shadows writhed, as if harboring a demon.

It's a rare class card with a light and shadow effect... Chen Qi is examining the front of the card.

The front of the card, in the style of a tarot card, depicts a man in black, his body soaked in blood, gazing at the distant stars from beneath a pile of corpses.

"That's rare..." Chen Qi was secretly surprised. As a strategy guide content creator, he couldn't recall this class card at first glance.

A special notification popped up in front of Chen Qi's eyes.

The Shadow Assassin Who Wants to Travel
Level: two
Nature: lamp, shadow
Usage requirements: Inspiration level reaches 30, and a Tier 1 Job Card has been fully utilized.
Passive skill:
Assassin Talent (Shadow): Enhanced reaction speed, slight enhancement to Shadow and Stealth skills, and a slight increase in the aptitude for Shadow Aspect skills.

Note: I am an emotionless assassin.

Travel Will (Lamp): You gain a slight increase in mental resistance. At the same time, your Lamp Aspect and Perception skills are slightly enhanced, and your Lamp Aspect skill comprehension is slightly increased.

Note: Nothing can stop me from traveling!

Active skills:
Dark Concealment: In the darkness, you can conceal your voice, appearance, and even the aura of your spiritual power.

Note: After this job, I'll retire from crime and go see the world.

"Such a long career card name..."

Chen Qi complained that this professional card should be considered a special variant of the Shadow Assassin class.

He then checked the Shadow Assassin's skills.

Two passive skills and one active skill.

The most important aspect of a Tier 2 class card is its passive skill.

The understanding of lamp imagery and shadow imagery has increased slightly, but it is crucial!

Affinity and enlightenment can only be obtained through class cards, unless through some legendary relics or special opportunities.

Even a small improvement is a huge breakthrough!

Many extraordinary skills cannot be mastered without this small amount of comprehension.

For example, the stealth of shadows and the power of shadows both require this slight understanding.

This is equivalent to him expanding into two huge learnable skill trees.

The task of a second-tier transcendent being is to study these seemingly insignificant passive skills, develop their own combat system, and build upon them.

The ability to build a reasonable combat system is the key to judging the strength of a second-tier superhuman.

The black rabbit we encountered before possessed both hammer-like comprehension and mechanical affinity, which allowed it to wear the workshop's custom-made armor.

Chen Qi took another look.

In addition, there are two bonuses: mental resistance and reaction speed.

"Not bad."

Chen Qi smiled to himself.

It's already quite remarkable that the second tier can provide such a significant boost.

The most common second-tier profession of the Lamp Aspect, the Traveler, has a movement skill called Light Feather and an important auxiliary skill called Weather Forecast, plus increased Agility, increased Inspiration, and a small amount of Lamp Aspect Comprehension.

From Chen Qi's perspective, if we only consider combat, the Shadow Assassin is far superior to the Traveler.

As Old White Gull said, this is indeed a very rare professional card.

In addition, after digestion, the Hunter's Ember of Dawn can enhance the class's passive skills.

It's a pretty good addition to our fighting force.

In addition to the aforementioned bonuses, all Tier 2 class cards will alter the source of spiritual energy within the user.

Let's talk about it when we get back to the small houseboat... Chen Qi accepted the job card and needed to digest the second-tier job card in a quiet place.
