My profession is too unique.

Chapter 2 Reversal
Occupation?

Su Chen was stunned, and some fragmented memories flooded his mind.

Professionals are undoubtedly the most prestigious class in Nanfeng City, possessing all sorts of incredible powers.

It can be said that every migrant worker longs to become a professional so that they can settle down and no longer live in fear.

However, becoming a professional is not so simple; every profession requires extremely rigorous rituals to be taken up.

Regardless of the difficulty of the ritual, even the name of the ritual was considered a secret, not to mention the details.

According to fragments of information gathered by his predecessor, even the slightest error in the ritual could lead to failure in the initiation process and transformation into a terrifying monster.

And this panel of mine seems to be able to collect information from the outside world and then provide job requirements?

Su Chen's Adam's apple bobbed, and he immediately understood what this meant: simply by relying on information asymmetry, he could make a fortune.

"I...I am...a tutor at Nanfeng Academy, and also a member of the Jiang family. If...if you dare..."

Hearing Jiang He's suppressed pain in his voice, Su Chen's burning passion subsided somewhat.

He composed himself, deciding that regardless of the future, the immediate troubles were still unresolved.

"Haha..." The short man was already squatting in front of Jiang He, his gloomy voice rang out, "Madam, of course I know your identity, the alluring Violet, tsk tsk, truly worthy of your name..."

Although Su Chen could only see the other person's back, he could imagine that the other person's eyes were currently scanning Jiang He without restraint.

Su Chen couldn't help but feel a little anxious, his gaze fixed on [Beginner Combat], which seemed to be his only reliance.

But... he glanced at the burly figure beside him out of the corner of his eye; the muscles on his chest were practically bigger than his own head.

Become an apprentice in secret arts?

Although I've heard from others that you can try to get a job in a lower-level position without meeting all the promotion requirements.

Even with some risks, it's not something we can't take a gamble on. But these days, where can we find such a dark environment...?

[Sensing the host's current perilous situation, the arcane apprentice is contemplating...]

Su Chen's eyes narrowed. The panel had changed again?

[The wise arcane apprentice has decided to step back. Arcane apprentices must now meet all promotion requirements before taking up the position, and will therefore receive an additional reward.]

Several characters gradually disappeared. What... what is that?
Does this profession even have self-reflection?
Must all job requirements be met?
They're not even giving me a chance to gamble?
Who knows what the second promotion requirement is?
A barrage of questions flooded his mind, leaving Su Chen completely bewildered.

Then, a sharp gaze brought him back to his senses. The big guy next to him was staring intently at him, as if he had noticed his unusual behavior.

Su Chen's heart skipped a beat, but the other party did not make any further moves.

While feeling a sense of relief, he also grew increasingly anxious. What if these two guys weren't professionals...?

"Unfortunately, I don't have much time this time and can't spend much time with Madam..."

The short man spoke with regret, then got up and walked to the side, stretching out his arm. A blue hemp rope slid out from his black sleeve.

Controlled by an invisible force, like a nimble venomous snake, it coiled around Jiang He, slowly lifting her up and placing her on the sofa.

“Rope Master…” Jiang He squeezed out a few words through gritted teeth, his gaze turning to the burly man, the despair in his eyes clearly visible: “Strongman, two professionals, who wants to kill me?”

“I’m sorry, madam, we are professionals.” The rope master shrugged.

“Professionalism…” Jiang He forced a grim smile onto his pale face. “A slut who serves prostitutes is not even as good as the strongmen over there. At least they can change jobs after passing the body tempering trial. What about you? You have no future in your life, and you’re talking about professionalism?”

Jiang He's words were truly sharp; Su Chen had long been familiar with Jiang He's venomous tongue.

He could clearly see the stiff expression on the short man's face. If you insult two people at once, the other person might not think anything of it. But if you drag one down and put the other down, it's a different story.

At least the big guy next to him raised his head a little.

Wait a minute… He felt a slight stirring in his heart and hurriedly opened the panel.

[Discovered a Tier 1 Intermediate Class - Warrior]

[Discovered promotion conditions for Warriors - Body Tempering Trial: Break your physical limits ten times during arduous training.]

[Second promotion criterion: ???]

Sure enough, there are new professions, but only strongmen, not rope masters. It seems that just having a name is not enough.

Su Chen grew increasingly anxious. It wouldn't work either; the Body Tempering Trial also lacked the necessary conditions for completion.

Sensing the host's impending crisis, the Warrior class begins to rethink...

Su Chen's expression changed slightly. Could it be?

The valiant warrior class is determined to forge ahead, proactively revealing other promotion conditions. Completing any one of them will grant perfect employment, but the other promotion conditions must be completed within one month of employment, otherwise the class will be erased.

Uh-huh!
Su Chen's heart skipped a beat. Sure enough, the second condition for promotion under the Warrior profession was no longer a question mark.

[Second requirement for promotion to the Warrior class: Possess at least one physical skill.]

Su Chen frowned subconsciously. A profession specializing in physical combat? Me...

No, his eyes suddenly lit up. There was also a gift from his previous life: [Basic Combat], which should be considered a physical combat skill, right?

"Your turn..."

Suddenly, Su Chen's expression changed slightly. He hadn't noticed when the short man had appeared beside him. His attention had been almost entirely focused on the mental panel; he'd only heard the man say something like, "Madam is in good spirits," and "Hopefully she'll say something like that later..."

"Not bad looks..." The short man seemed to only now have time to sized him up, his sinister eyes filled with malice. "No wonder he could get a transfer letter by using his body..."

A letter of request for temporary enrollment? Isn't it a letter of enrollment?

Su Chen was puzzled, but then he saw that the floating blue hemp rope had already passed through his sleeve and wrapped around his limbs, causing his body to move uncontrollably.

"...An inferior vagrant was threatened by a college teacher, and during their sexual encounter, he was accidentally killed by him. Before dying, he took the teacher with him, and they both perished. That should make sense, right..."

He stroked his chin, his voice contorted with malice: "When the guards came in, you were lying naked on the sofa. Such a shameful affair shouldn't be publicized by your family or the academy, so the case should be closed quickly..."

The rope master looked at Su Chen again, a strange smile appearing on his lips: "You're lucky, little guy. You can still enjoy this beautiful body before you die. But don't worry, I won't let you release it. Hold it in."

Jiang He's face was pale, and at this moment, it was unclear whether he was frightened or what, he stopped speaking.

Su Chen, bound by ropes, uncontrollably walked towards the sofa, and just then, the room lights went out.

The short man's expression changed drastically. He suddenly looked at Jiang He, whose face was filled with malice, and saw that her mouth was open.

"驡!"

He uttered an incomprehensible syllable, the sound not loud, but it seemed to come from a great distance, piercing and sharp, crashing into the brains of the three people present.

Su Chen felt a sudden relaxation, as if a steel cone had been driven into his head, and two muffled thuds and groans came from behind him.

"Go, go, pinch her mouth shut!" Rope Master roared, clutching his head and hunching over.

But the strongman seemed to be different. Although he also looked to be in pain, he was still able to move with difficulty and walk towards Jiang He's direction.

Su Chen was lying on the ground, but for some reason, he wasn't in as much pain, and his mind was even clearer.

A huge shadow fell over him; it was that big guy.

Su Chen's mind raced, and he knew now was the perfect moment, so he didn't hesitate.

[Beginner Combat] Gear!
A strange sensation instantly overwhelmed my entire body, as if countless ants were crawling between my bones. My muscle fibers quietly became thicker, and my frail body underwent silent changes.

But in the current situation, no one cares about him.

Su Chen gritted his teeth, his pupils bloodshot, staring intently at the panel in front of him that no one else could see.

The promotion requirements have been met.

After the name of the Warrior class appears, two clear words appear: "Job Admission!"

His gaze lingered on those two words, seemingly sensing his resolve. The warrior's resolve crumbled instantly, and Su Chen felt his heart leap into his throat, as if struck by a drum.

[I have already taken up a job as a Hercules]

[Gain Ability - Strong]

Immediately following, an even more intense change struck, as if the muscle tissue was being torn apart and then forcibly sewn back together.

His physical strength increased rapidly, but this change did not cause him to grow into a large, muscular man; instead, it made his physique more proportionate.

boom! boom! boom!
The sound of his heart pounding filled his ears. The changes brought about by equipping himself with the [Basic Fighter] and becoming a [Strongman] were too great. Coupled with the strange influence of Jiang He, his consciousness was almost overwhelmed.

Fortunately, this change ended quickly; the physical pain subsided rapidly, and at the same time, the mental pain became negligible.

Before he could even process the changes in his body, he abruptly turned his head and looked at the rope master who was clutching his head and howling in pain.

At the same time, the strongman arrived in front of Jiang He, his palm aimed at her head, his eyes wide open, blood seeping from his mouth and nose.

The eerie syllables suddenly disappeared, and the rope master breathed a sigh of relief, feeling as if a great weight had been lifted from his shoulders.

"Damn it, don't worry, I'll make sure you two die a horrible death..." Rope Master growled, but his face suddenly froze as a shadow enveloped him.

His throat bobbed slightly, and the hemp rope that had fallen beside him swayed. Before he could do anything, he felt a hand, seemingly out of nowhere, land on his head, like an iron hoop.

The intense stinging sensation reminded him that if the other person exerted force, they could cause irreversible damage to his head.

"Don't move..." A cold voice came, and Rope Master's body trembled, a look of disbelief appearing on his lowered face.

How...how is that possible...?

"Hoo..." Su Chen slowly exhaled, his palm rotating, already positioned to the side of the rope master.

“Old ghost…” Just then, the strongman turned around, and the six of them looked at each other in astonishment.

That's right, the strongmen didn't kill Jiang He directly; their plan wasn't complete yet, they just silenced her.

“You…” The strongman seemed not to have reacted yet, his brows furrowed.

Jiang He stared at Su Chen with equal disbelief. Her view had been blocked by the strongman's imposing figure, and she hadn't noticed what was happening to Su Chen at all.

To everyone's surprise, the other party subdued another rope master in the blink of an eye.

His once thin upper body had become strong and muscular, with well-proportioned muscles, and the expression on his face was even more unfamiliar to her.

Indifferent, wary, and fierce.

I've never seen this in Su Chen before.
