Chapter 810 Becoming a Marker

"Sister, I can't find him anywhere."

"They might have... gone out."

The second floor of the villa.

Luo Yeli, dressed in a black silk nightgown, stood gracefully at the bathroom door, her silver hair draped over her shoulders. Listening to the sounds inside, she couldn't help but fall silent.

Now that she was no longer a young girl, Luo Yeli naturally became much more perceptive.

"Sister, he's in there too, right?"

boom!
The door to the washroom was pushed open.

The affair was exposed, but Jiang He showed no shame whatsoever.

Even though she was mentally prepared, Luo Yeli still couldn't help but widen her eyes. Her usually dignified and quiet sister was completely different from before.

"I'm sorry," Luo Yueju said apologetically.

Luo Yeli covered her forehead, looking troubled, and said, "Stop saying things like that."

"Why?" Jiang He asked, puzzled.

Luo Yeli said irritably, "Dijiang, you are a decadent person at heart. You are just indifferent on the surface. No matter how much you have sex, it can't fill the emptiness in your heart. You are completely indiscriminate in your desires and are tyrannical. How could I like a guy like you?"

Jiang He paused, her eyes turning cold.

Suddenly, a pale white hand landed on Luo Yeli's shoulder.

Si Ning said with a smile, "It's so lively so early in the morning, but I heard someone deliberately saying hurtful things to provoke others and hurt themselves. Miss Ye Li, are you really willing to back down?"

Luo Yeli said in a low voice, "What else can we do?"

Si Ning said with a serious expression, "Of course we should have a competition. Miss Ye Li and Ms. Yue Ju will determine who is better by competing on the same stage. However, as the referee, I must ensure fairness, so this competition will be conducted together."

"How could this be...?" Luo Yeli's whole body stiffened.

Si Ning pulled the silver-haired girl into the washroom, closed the door, and said with a grin, "Lao Jiang, it's time for you to come and check on Miss Ye Li's quality. In order to maintain Ms. Yue Ju's condition, I'll take care of her for you. You don't mind some small props, do you?"

Jiang He replied indifferently, "Whatever."

Half a day passed.

Luo Yueju and Luo Yeli were so engrossed in their lovemaking that their lips met.

Seeing that the atmosphere was right, Si Ning reached out and hooked Jiang He's chin, smiling, "No need to be so formal with me, a new day should start with plenty of energy."

"You're such a waste of talent. Lilith's position should be given to you."

"Hey, same goes for you."

……

night.

Jiang He returned to the living room and took out an A-grade tactical short knife. According to the extraordinary laws of the Night World, this short knife could be inscribed with six alchemical matrices.

He took out the B-grade Source Power Revolver, Whale Song, and crushed it to use as material for the Alchemy Matrix.

Alchemy begins.

The first matrix is ​​named "Void Cut," derived from spatial power, which enhances the sharpness of the blade.

The second matrix is ​​named "Lightning Cut," derived from the power of thunder, which enhances the cutting ability of the blade.

The third matrix is ​​named "Rhythm Rift," derived from the power of rhythm, which enhances the shattering power of the blade.

The fourth matrix is ​​named "Steel," derived from the power of steel, which strengthens the blade's toughness and resilience.

The fifth and sixth matrices come from the power of regeneration and the power of fate, respectively. The former allows the blade to repair its own damage, while the latter enhances a certain type of guaranteed hit.

"Overall, it leans towards sharpness and sturdiness."

Jiang He examined the new weapon in his hand. In terms of appearance, the blade had been extended and was as straight as a line, somewhat similar to the Tang Dynasty horizontal sword in the present world. The colors left by the six matrices intertwined with the original dark red, making the seven-colored patterns appear on the upper and lower surfaces.

The new weapon can no longer be called a short sword.

Since the alchemical materials came from the Revolver Whale Song, Jiang He simply engraved the words "Whale Song" on the blade. The Whale Song Blade was obviously no match for the Dragon Spear, but it was passable as a temporary weapon.

[Hint: Today's marker has been revealed]
[Player Name: Mo Ke]
[Affiliation: Origin Battlefield]
[Current Position: General of Anxi Fortress, Commander-in-Chief of the Garrison]
[Real-time location: Villa No. 9, Huxin Island, Anxi District...]
[Note: The marker successfully kills 50 player hunters and obtains a Tarot-level forbidden item (this rule only applies once)]
"hehe."

Jiang He was not surprised at all that she had become a marker.

The "turn a blind eye" caused the alliance of the other three battlefield players to collapse. It was predictable that they would target them, and it could even be said that the true intentions of the Marker Rules were revealed.

The third spot, which was ignored, was used up.

Jiang He concealed his social connections, thus preventing Lao Hei, Wu He, and others from being implicated, and ensuring that the hunters would focus solely on him.

After bidding a temporary farewell to his animal companions, he left the core of the Heavenly Matrix to Luo Yeli.

Jiang He walked out of the villa. It was midnight. The island in the middle of the lake was relatively quiet. The time before dawn was relatively peaceful, after all, the hunters needed to prepare and get into position.

Zheng!
From a perspective invisible to the naked eye, the threads of fate tremble violently.

"Someone is plotting to kill me."

Jiang He went straight to Villa No. 3, the residence of Qing Mingming, one of the heroines of Destiny. He beat the sleeping girl while she was still covered by a blanket, and the power of Destiny filled the Heavenly Enemy Ring.

Compared to her mother, Chief Xin, the intensity of the power of destiny emanating from Qing Mingming was on a completely different level.

The next moment, the fate teleportation began.

……

Yangtian Security Company, Nanyan District.

Since Chairman Luo Yangtian was assassinated, the company's performance has plummeted. In fact, all aspects of the company's business came from the personal relationship between the chairman and the Luo family. With the chairman's death, operational and management problems have repeatedly erupted, bringing the company to the brink of bankruptcy.

Surprisingly, among Chairman Luo Yangtian's sons, Luo Qu, who had the least presence, suddenly rose to prominence. Not only did he awaken the 30th ranked original talent, Metal Noble, but he also devoured various rare metals and advanced to B-level in a short period of time.

Since Luo Qu took control of the company, the business has shifted from food to security. A dozen or so extraordinary people who collected rare metals from all over the country have become the backbone of the company, and they have even formed a private armed force.

The top floor of Yangtian Security Company.

Luo Qu sat at the head of the conference table and said righteously, "He must be killed. I believe that the bigwigs behind you have also given instructions that this battle is to target the Origin Players."

The vice president of the Metal Frenzy Guild looked somewhat troubled. "But he is a fortress general... I agree with the guild leader's opinion."

My thoughts were interrupted.

Because Teijiang's social relationships were concealed by "blinding," even information such as "lover" and "space blinker" was downplayed.

One of the key members suddenly said, "Speaking of which, why did the giants initially have us target the Origin players?"

Everyone was stunned. In the past, when the Realm of the Present was restored, at least before the middle of the public beta, the Realm of the Present was basically not qualified to compete with the three battlefields.

The All Beings Guild has the strongest organizational power, the End Adventurer Group is even more crazy, and the Twilight Players are notoriously unreliable. Most of the world battles are duels between the three battlefields, but at some point, things started to change.

"I think Origin won the last Gold-tier battle?"

"Holy crap, how did they win?!"

"No, we've overlooked something—supernatural abilities!"

A brief silence fell, and everyone's eyes glazed over.

Time seemed to have turned back to the beginning.

Luo Quyi said righteously, "I must kill him. I need a forbidden item to replenish my strength."

“I agree,” the vice president said. “If the intelligence from Qianliu is correct, the demigod of the thirteenth clan of vampires—Queen Shia—should be an End Player who has mastered the Tarot-level forbidden artifact, The World. She used The World to travel back in time and become a demigod in history, and may return to the present at any time.”

"Therefore, the guild leader's strength improvement must be the core goal of the guild, because only a demigod can fight against a demigod."

"agree."

"agree."

The hunting plan was unanimously approved by the fifteen core members of the guild.

But the next moment, a cold voice suddenly rang out.

"There's no need for that."

The seven-colored blades bloomed in the top-floor conference room.

The vice president could swear that since he descended into the world of darkness, he had never seen such a sharp blade of light.

The Primal Talent - Metal Knight activated, and the Blood Steel, with its B-grade sturdiness, assimilated into his body. The vice guild leader raised his arms, his entire body filled with crimson, and his domain transformed into arm armor, perfectly showcasing the defensive power of the guild's main tank at this moment.

But the blade continued its downward slash without diminishing its sharpness.

The skull, neck, chest, and internal organs were severed one after another. The Whale Song Blade wielded unparalleled sharpness, splitting the vice president's metal body in two from the top of his head, with liquid metal splashing everywhere.

With a single blow, the vice president fell.

Just as everyone recovered from their shock and before they could react, Jiang He unleashed a second strike with lightning speed. A deep blue arc rippled outwards, its sharpness pulsating with an imperceptible, unique rhythm. The two powers combined, and the chests of all fifteen core players were severed, killing them simultaneously. —Power Combination Strike Secret Technique: Blue Waltz

The company's top floor, which had been repaired once, broke again.

At the edge of the top floor, Luo Qu was furious. Although the blade light only touched him, it left a terrible wound that almost tore his abdomen apart. He activated his metal power with all his might, not only bringing his own defense to A-level, but also unleashing a vast torrent of metal from his palm.

Boom!

The power of all kinds of metals burst forth, like a great river stretching across the sky.

Jiang He glanced back and saw that the space around Luo Qu's head had shattered. The secret technique, "Divine Might," had turned him into a headless corpse. His whole body was surrounded by silver light, and the power secret technique, "Silver Insulator," easily resisted the torrent of metal. It traveled upstream until a blade pierced through Luo Qu's heart, and the essence of blood flowed back from the blade.

From the moment of arrival.

The demise of the Metal Frenzy guild was already inevitable.

Jiang He wiped the blood off the blade and vanished in a flash.

……

One o'clock in the morning, at the lakeside villa.

Luo Yeli, dressed neatly, dragged a suitcase downstairs.

At the top of the stairs, Luo Yueju looked helpless and said, "I didn't know you had any travel plans recently."

"Let me leave alone," Luo Yeli said calmly.

"Why? You're already the heir of the Luo family. Isn't this what you've always dreamed of?" Luo Yueju gently trimmed her nails and asked doubtfully, "Without power, how can you avenge your parents' murder? The family head, Luo Youhun, might think you were too young to care about your parents back then, but you can't fool me."

Killing the demigod Luo Youhun and expelling the vampires has always been the silver-haired girl's biggest goal. However, the most troublesome aspect of the demigod is not only his own strength, but also the fact that the Luo clan is a behemoth that should not be underestimated. Becoming the heir first and then the head of the family can greatly reduce the difficulty of revenge.

Luo Yeli's eyes were complicated as she said, "I can't accept singing a duet with you. I'm a normal person."

Luo Yueju chuckled, "You can just keep quiet."

Luo Yeli straightened her skirt, sat on her suitcase, and said seriously, "This is too absurd. This is beyond my comprehension. I originally thought that alternating with Caiwan was the limit, but things always turn out unexpectedly. I admit that I overestimated myself."

Luo Yueju realized that the other party wasn't just throwing a tantrum, but was serious, and she immediately panicked.

"You're starting to hate Dijiang?"

"No, he just has psychological issues that lead to unusual fetishes. I don't actually have any objections and am willing to satisfy him, but that doesn't mean I'm willing to be 'completely honest' with my only relative. Don't you feel ashamed?"

There are some things that Luo Yeli finds difficult to talk about.

When it comes to a critical moment, this woman seems to lose her mind and says anything and everything.

She only has one father and has absolutely no intention of acknowledging a second one on the spot, just like the other party did.

"and……"

Luo Yeli's face turned ashen as she said, "You actually kissed me."

Luo Yueju remained silent, then said with difficulty, "So it was my problem."

Luo Yeli stood up, grabbed her suitcase, and smiled gently, "In short, my leaving for now is the best choice. Don't worry too much, after all, I don't know when I'll be back. As for you and him, I don't mind."

The two passed each other.

Luo Yueju suddenly said, "I have a way."

"What?" Luo Yeli turned around in astonishment.

"Do you know why you've been unable to complete your second awakening? The resources the Luo family invested, if they were willing to spend the time, could have cultivated two A-level individuals."

Ultimately, it's because your soul power is insufficient.

Luo Yueju embraced the girl, and her body began to melt. This A-level puppeteer had clearly mastered a power similar to "living refinement." The two bodies merged, and Luo Yueju's soul gradually transformed into a mindless essence, nourishing and strengthening the soul of the other twin.

"It is death, and it is not death."

"I will live on in you forever."

"Prepare to complete the awakening of the Listener of All Things."

"This was originally a coming-of-age gift I prepared for you. I should have given it to you before, but because of my lover, I've been a little reluctant to die lately."

Si Ning, who was eavesdropping in a corner on the first floor, was shocked. Sacrificing at the slightest disagreement, this mental state was even more worrying than hers. She originally thought that the puppeteer who had awakened the original talent "Thousand Thoughts" would at most suffer from a split personality, but she did not expect it to be so extreme.

Luo Yeli's figure became extremely tall and slender, no longer as thin as before. Her silver hair was as dazzling as ever. When she ended her "Great Luo Form", she returned to her original appearance.

Compared to the former, the latter is undoubtedly more in line with the "Xiao Luo form".

Luo Yeli was still in shock and fainted before she could even grieve. The moment she fell to the ground, the floor became incredibly flexible to prevent the Listener of All Things from getting hurt.

Si Ning went upstairs with trepidation.

"Laojiang, how am I supposed to explain this to you?!"

The period of unconsciousness was very short. When Luo Yeli opened her eyes again, she had become an A-level Listener of All Things and even met one of the core requirements of S-level, mastering the power of heaven and earth. However, the price was equally heavy. Luo Yueju was essentially dead.

Si Ning was speechless and whispered, "I shouldn't have acted recklessly. I was only thinking about taking care of Lao Jiang and forgot about how you two felt."

“You’re really spoiling him.” Luo Yeli shook her head and said, “But speaking of which, Miss Ning, please buy me some dresses and stockings, the kind that aren’t too formal.”

"White-collar workers, nurses, and the like?"

"can."

Why are you suddenly bringing this up?

Luo Yeli sighed, "I have to satisfy him properly for my sister."

Si Ning was stunned: "Huh?"

Is this still the world of the living?

"So that's how it is. It wasn't Luo Yueju who died."

"Actually, it's our company's lemon-flavored toothpaste!"

……

Two o'clock in the morning.

The bar was consistently noisy.

Jiang He contacted Prime Minister Yizhang, demanding the forbidden item used to kill Vice Principal Fu. Yizhang sent someone to meet him, and the meeting place was chosen to be a bar that was actually an intelligence base.

"General Dijiang, on behalf of the Prime Minister, I congratulate you on your achievements. The commander of the First Garrison Army has asked me to convey a message that he is willing to obey the military orders of the Commander-in-Chief."

After the intelligence officer finished speaking, he put the Prime Minister and the Garrison Commander out of his mind. The original mission of probing was turned into a routine task because he turned a blind eye to them. He directly handed over the complete list of forbidden items.

As agreed, Jiang He could choose either one.

However, there is no Tarot-level item on the list. This level of forbidden item is also a core asset for powerful clans.

"Forbidden Item 045: The Pale Eyes".

Jiang He selected the result: the Pale Eye originated from a fallen vampire duke, also known as the "Pale Eye." This forbidden object's ability is to randomly see real-time images related to oneself. The drawback is that the images are difficult to be accurate, but it has the power of destiny to provide guidance, making its practical application controllable.

"Understood, I'll go get it right away."

Just a moment.

The intelligence personnel retrieved a pale eyeball from the base, clearly transported there via the Moon Shadow Gate.

Jiang He casually completed the interception, turning the forbidden object into ashes.

[Hint: You have evolved the forbidden gene, Azure Eyes (both eyes) – allowing you to randomly see real-time images that have a causal relationship with you. When combined with the power of destiny, these images will be sorted according to their closeness to your own existence.]
The power of destiny is activated.

From the perspective of the scene, a slender woman walked up from behind, holding a colorful cocktail in her hand, and sat down next to Jiang He.

Do you have time later?

The woman moved closer, her breath sweet as orchids, and said with a smile, "Let me guess what you bought from the bartender. If I guess right, you have to keep me company."

"My advice is for you to run," Jiang He said.

"Hehehe, you're so cute..."

boom!
The woman transformed into a bomb, and an explosion no less powerful than a Class B black gold explosive pack rose in front of the bar. The bar ceiling was blown off, tables and chairs were shattered, the noise turned into chaos, hundreds of customers fled in terror, and dozens were killed or injured.

In the firelight, Jiang He got up.

His entire body shimmered with black light; this level of attack could be withstood solely by the power of steel.

Suddenly, a car on the street went out of control and sped toward the ruins of the bar. Just before it hit Jiang He, it exploded violently again.

"It looks like his innate talent: Demolitionist."

The ability to transform matter into bombs through touch.

Of course, this ability also has limitations. At least the power can resist or even suppress this transformation, and the relevant rank is far from enough to allow the demolitionist to turn the entire planet into a super bomb when he touches the ground.
