Drawing Cards With My Lifespan: Starting By Gamifying Reality

Chapter 13: Finally a Guarantee

Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

The timing of this strike could be said to be perfect.

Han Yue was seriously injured, but she was focused on Xu Liushuang and the others.

It was not that she did not know that Su Mo was standing not far behind her, but she simply didn’t think much of a level 1 Transcendent.

After all, even though she was heavily injured, she could crush a level 1 Transcendent like killing a chicken.

The other party wouldn’t have time to even escape when facing her, so how would he dare to take the initiative to attack?

It was because of this confidence that she simply ignored Su Mo.

By the time the sword suddenly appeared at her neck, it was already too late to dodge.

“Shit-”

“Kacha!” The sword slashed across.

Even though Han Yue’s skin was as tough as leather, it could not withstand the attack of an enhanced sword.

With that, Han Yue’s head fell to the ground and rolled to the wall. Her beautiful face still had an expression of 30% shock and 70% confusion.

She had never thought that she would die so easily.

For a moment, the scene was silent.

Xu Liushuang and the others at the door were also shocked.

In their eyes, Su Mo had only become a Transcendent a few hours ago.

He was a newbie Transcendent who could not be any newer.

He might not even be familiar with his abilities.

This time, they didn’t bring him here to fight. They had only brought him here to at most witness the battle so that he could familiarize himself with the battle environment.

Who would have thought that he would dare to attack a level 3 fox demon?

Even though the fox demon was already seriously injured, it was still not something a level 1 Transcendent could easily deal with.

Just the counterattack before the fox demon’s death could bring the attacker down with her.

However, he had accurately grasped the timing and successfully launched a sneak attack.

This judgment and decisiveness were enough to make Xu Liushuang cheer for him.

“It seems that we didn’t just get a sword saint, but also a very reliable combat partner.”

Hearing Xu Liushuang’s praise, Old Master Zhou nodded in agreement.

Zhang Zhenyu chuckled, feeling proud as he remembered that he was the one who had scouted this person.

Chu Qingwu walked over and looked at Su Mo from head to toe as if he was a giant panda. She asked in surprise, “That move just now was the instant sword, right? Didn’t you awaken the sword condensation technique? How come you have another ability?”

Su Mo was silently absorbing lifespan.

Upon hearing this, he explained with an innocent look, “I don’t know what’s going on either. I just suddenly thought of making a move, and then I just cast it.”

Chu Qingwu’s beautiful eyes widened, and her chest felt tight. She had an unspeakable grievance.

At the side, Zhang Zhenyu sighed and consoled, “Xiao Chu, you must know that there have always been some geniuses in this world who can awaken new abilities at an extreme speed. At least it has been a few hours since he had awakened. Think about our powerful Officer Qingyang who created an unprecedented record. He awakened six new abilities within an hour of being a Transcendent. Who can compare to him?”

Chu Qingwu felt even more defeated after hearing his comforting words.

Su Mo asked curiously, “Is it easy to awaken a new ability?”

“It might be easy for you, but not necessarily for us,” Zhang Zhenyu explained with a bitter smile, “I’m sure you already know that no matter when one obtains a new profession or levels up in the future, a new ability will be awakened every time. Other than this fixed chance to obtain new abilities, we also have the opportunity to awaken other new abilities. In the beginning, whether or not other new abilities can be awakened was completely dependent on luck. However, after the constant explorations and conclusions of generations of Transcendents, we found some patterns and methods to awaken new abilities. We call these methods “paradigms”. For example, the warlock profession can go to an empty cemetery at 12 o ‘clock every night to meditate for an hour. After doing so for a month, it will then be possible to awaken the yin-yang eye and see wandering souls. This is a paradigm.”

“One ability often corresponded to one or more paradigms. To awaken an ability, one has to strictly follow the paradigms of that ability and continuously practice them. Over time, one might then be able to awaken the ability. Of course, it is also possible for the ability to never be awakened. Rather, it would be better to say that the success rate of awakening abilities is very low. Therefore, the paradigms that corresponded to each ability are still being constantly revised and changed. It’s all only to increase the probability of awakening and to benefit more Transcendents.”

“When we don’t go on missions, most of us are busy executing the paradigms and comprehending abilities. Even so, only a few can successfully awaken new abilities. How can there be someone like you who awakened a second ability on the same day as becoming a Transcendent, and not even through the paradigms? According to Taozi, all those who awaken new abilities themselves should be tied up and drowned.”

“Ahem, ahem!” Xu Liushuang coughed twice.

Zhang Zhenyu said in realization, “I almost forgot that Deacon Xu is also an extraordinary genius. He awakened many new abilities and is known as the “Three Thousand Streams of Light”.”

Xu Liushuang touched the beard at the corner of his lips and said rather modestly, “That’s all in the past. Every generation is full of talents. I can’t compare to Xiao Su now.”

“Deacon Xu, you must be joking. Who doesn’t know that you’re the strongest level 4 Transcendent in Tianmu City? You’re being too humble.”

“Old Zhang, you’re not bad either. You’re about to break through, right? As long as you do, you’ll be a true level 4 Transcendent.”

…

Both of them flattered each other, and the air was suddenly filled with a cheerful atmosphere.

As Su Mo listened, he stayed where he was, silently absorbing Han Yue’s scattered life force.

After that, the group began to inspect the villa to check if there were any fish that had escaped the net or if there were any other related gains.

For example, the broken black jade lotus was one of the gains from this trip.

They would turn it in later and convert it into points that would be divided among everyone.

If the black jade lotus could be successfully repaired one day, it might appear in the exchange column.

After a round of inspection, everyone reached the silver-gray double-door refrigerator on the first floor in the end.

Looking into the freezing chamber of the refrigerator, everyone frowned and their expressions turned ugly.

There were three hearts in the freezer, which obviously belonged to humans.

The bloodstains on the cabinet proved that more hearts had been stored there.

Zhang Zhenyu’s voice was hoarse as he said, “I was lucky enough to extract a memory fragment just now. After reading their memories, I found out that these fox demons had come to collect hearts under the orders of their lord. I don’t know what their lord is going to do with the hearts, nor do I know her exact location, but without a doubt, this matter is more serious than we thought.”

Xu Liushuang’s face was gloomy as he said, “It seems that there should be a fox lord hiding in the dark. Only the fox lord could create so many fox demons and give them orders. Yet, even the weakest fox lord is at level 4.”

Old Master Zhou thought for a moment and added, “Their level is not a big deal. With the close monitoring of the Celestial Association, the fox demons who sneak in can’t possibly be that strong. The most important thing is to confirm her location and find her.”

“Maybe we can start with the fox demon’s movements,” Chu Qingwu pondered and said, “Since they’ve collected enough hearts, they’ll definitely hand them over to the fox lord. There must be some clues in the process.”

Xu Liushuang looked at the crowd and said, “Let’s leave this matter to the team’s auxiliary. Once the fox lord’s location is confirmed, I will report to the garrison. It’s just a small fox lord, she can’t do anything. However, you guys have to train more during your free time. I have a premonition that the future won’t be too peaceful. Strength is what we can rely on the most.”

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Su Mo also felt a sense of urgency.

He couldn’t help but look at his game panel.

With a lifespan of 160, he could finally draw 90 more times and gain a guarantee.
