I can't be a demon.

Chapter 9 The Fundamentals of the Warrior Profession

Shen Lian put the episode in the alley behind him and thought about the basics of a warrior.

It is unrealistic for Jiu'er Chaofeng to be promoted in a short period of time. He can only rely on warriors to obtain points, provided that the warriors' sources of experience are not metaphysical.

Shen Lian plunged into the pawnshop.

Old Wang noticed Shen Lian in a hurry and secretly lamented that the young master had changed his personality.

"If the young master becomes a warrior, matchmakers will probably be scrambling to find him. Hehe, maybe in a few years, he can get married and have children."

Shen Lian came to the door of the warehouse.

It is called a warehouse, but it is more appropriate to call it a storage room, as it contains items of low value.

Pawnshops not only have to collect antiques, but also have to dispose of them regularly to ensure sufficient money for turnover, so there are few valuable antiques left in the warehouse.

"Myna, watch out outside."

"Ah~"

The mynah bird pecked Shen Lian's head and landed on the top of the eaves.

Shen Lian climbed through the window and entered the warehouse, where the smell of long-sealed mildew wafted into his nose.

In fact, when he first took office as a court official, he had sneaked into the warehouse and vaguely remembered that the experience provided by the antiques there was little and bland.

Shen Lian stood still.

There are four wooden shelves in the warehouse, and the objects near the corner are the relics of the deceased mother of the previous life.

The rest of the wooden shelves were filled with antiques, but unfortunately they were either in very poor condition or had questionable origins, so Shen Hansheng found it difficult to sell them.

Shen Lian wiped the dust off the surface of the relic and then picked out the weapon.

Most of the weapons were pawned, with yellowed receipts pressed on the bottom. The customers never came to redeem them, and I'm afraid they would end up with their heads and bodies separated.

"I wonder if there are any good treasures among these swords."

Shen Lian sat in front of the pile of weapons and took out a rusty tiger-head machete.

"This knife looks sinister. Maybe there are several dead souls on its blade."

See the slightest clue and use your wisdom.

[Successful identification of cattle-killing knife]

【Bull-killing Knife】

[Made by Wang Guang, the knife is 37 years old. The raw material is scrap iron, the blade is rusted, and it is easy to break when hit by hard objects. ]

"A butcher's knife? It looks great, but it's useless."

Shen Lian threw it aside and picked up an ancient and old sword.

【Antique sword identification successful】

【Antique Sword】

[Made by Jin Bingli, the knife is eleven years old. The raw material is scrap iron, the blade is rusted, and it is easy to break when hit by hard objects. ]

The corner of Shen Lian's mouth twitched, and he suddenly realized that the warehouse was indeed a pile of scrap metal. How could such a precious weapon end up in a pawn shop?

"You can't spend hundreds of taels of silver to find a blacksmith to make it, right?"

Shen Lian shook his head. "The maximum amount of money I can mobilize is a hundred taels."

The weapon-casting technology among the people is backward, and the government's weapons are unlikely to flow out. Does Shen Lian have to take on a part-time job as a blacksmith?
"There are only twelve hours in total. There is no point in getting a third job."

Shen Lian identified them one by one without believing in evil.

It took him a long time to finally select some decent weapons.

【Hundred-year-old hardwood stick】

[Made by Sun Yang, the wooden stick is 45 years old. The raw material is 300-year-old hardwood and soaked in tung oil to prevent insects. ]

【Fine Iron Heart Mirror】

[Made by the government military department, the heart-protecting mirror has a history of thirty-six years. The raw material is fine iron, and it is badly damaged and can hardly withstand heavy blows. ]

Shen Lian remained silent.

"The hardwood stick has a bit of age. Three hundred years old hardwood is really rare."

"But the breastplate is a remnant of military armor, and the material is relatively high-quality."

Shen Lian did not consider the damage to the weapon. After professional promotion, it should be possible to repair it, and even the material of the weapon would be completely transformed.

The difference between the two is the main attack and the main defense.

Shen Lian had a lot of thoughts in his mind, and a decision was vaguely formed in his heart.

"Well? It seems there is a better choice."

Shen Lian raised his eyebrows and suddenly remembered an object he had seen before.

He ignored the scattered weapons, got up and left the warehouse, went to the study where Shen Hansheng usually did his accounts, and rummaged through the desk.

"Have it!"

Shen Lian was holding a dagger made of a special material. The material of the dagger was like amber or jade, but it was only the size of a palm. Under the warm sunlight, it showed a faint halo.

"Hehehe, Old Man Shen's treasure, the bone jade dagger."

"Except for the strange ingredients, this is a very suitable essential item for warriors."

【Bone Blade】

[Made by monk Fa Ming, the bone blade has a history of 366 years. The raw material is jadeified monk bones, which are very easy to damage. ]

The so-called jadeification of human bones refers to the fact that after a long period of playing with the bones, the sweat from the palms of the hands seeps into the bones, causing the material to become jadeified.

"The material of the bone jade matches the flesh, and its appearance is that of a weapon. The only drawback is that it cannot be used against the enemy for the time being, but that's okay."

"That's it."

[Are you sure that the bone blade is the fundamental thing for a warrior?]

After Shen Lian hesitated for a few moments, he called up the occupation panel to confirm the basic information, and the information displayed on the warrior occupation suddenly changed.

[Occupation: Warrior (0%)]

【Related: Bone Blade】

"Again!"

Shen Lian couldn't help but cover his chest. The blood circulation speed suddenly increased, and then his consciousness fell into an inexplicable trance.

He was not panicked because a similar situation had occurred when he had bound the starling before.

The bone blade was slightly hot.

"Ah~~"

The starling's sharp neigh seemed to foreshadow something.

No one noticed that strange and inexplicable things were happening in the study.

First, inky black blood began to flow out of Shen Lian's facial features. The blood was no different from that of a living thing, and it was wriggling silently.

Blood dripped onto the ground.

Shen Lian's shadow began to boil, as if giving birth to unspeakable monsters and demons.

buzzing.

Under some unknown influence, the insects in the courtyard rushed into the study, and then gathered towards the shadow like moths to a flame.

At this time, the shadow had absorbed all the blood.

Click.

A ferocious bloody mouth appeared on the surface of the shadow, with sharp teeth rubbing left and right, directly swallowing thousands of insects.

After eating, its bloody mouth turned into smoke and disappeared into the bone blade.

Shen Lian didn't notice anything unusual.

After the binding of the fundamental object was completed, he opened his eyes and checked the career panel for the first time, with great expectations for the warrior's supernatural powers.

【Magic Power: Food Supplement】

【Food supplement: slightly increase the digestive power of the stomach and intestines, slightly increase the capacity of the stomach and intestines. 】

"Is there any mistake?"

Shen Lian was stunned and almost threw the bone blade out of the window. Who could have thought that a warrior profession would awaken the power of a foodie.

Food supplements?

Does the profession panel assume that bone blades are ingredients? Using human bones as ingredients?
Veins popped out on Shen Lian's forehead, and he felt helpless about the unreliability of the career panel.

Then he comforted himself that warriors need to take strong medicines to practice, and the strength of their digestion actually determines their physique qualifications in a disguised way.

"How do warriors gain experience? They don't eat, do they?"

Shen Lian had a bad feeling.

He hurried to the kitchen and ate a lot, but not only did the fruits and vegetables fail to trigger his career panel, but he also got nothing from the meat.

"You have no experience eating normal food, are you going to eat humans?!!"

Shen Lian wanted to cry but had no tears.

.........

at the same time.

Wang Xin appeared in the alley behind the pawnshop, looking around with a frown on his face.

"There's a flash of new resentment. Things are really getting more and more uneasy."

"Also... there is a human skin scroll in the government office that can ward off evil spirits. I don't know which Taoist priest came to Yanliang Town."
