Luo Shu calculated in his mind that even if he didn't use all his points now, and didn't take into account future gains, just calculating the minimum of 8000 points per month, it would take him nearly seven months to upgrade one ability.
In order to raise his overall rating from 'excellent' to 'elite', Luo Shu needs to upgrade 3 skills to the 'elite' level.
In other words, taking into account the existing points, it will take Luo Shu at least one year and two months to reach the elite level.
“This growth rate is too slow.”
It is true that it only takes one year, or time without doing anything, to be promoted to the elite level. According to Luo Shu's speculation, this should be a very fast number on the mysterious side.
After all, with the same elite rank, Sharon, who barely entered the field of "hero" with the help of props, is a top figure in the mysterious side, a seven-star demon hunter among demon hunters. The only ones who can be higher than her are the leaders and senior cadres of major secret organizations. It can be seen that the current level of the mysterious side of this world is actually not that high.
But Luo Shu couldn't help feeling uneasy.
He had been here for less than four days, but how many things had he encountered? How many dangerous abyss props had he encountered?
The Lucky Wallet is almost equivalent to a level 3 Abyss item, and the Sealing Blade is equivalent to a level 3, which can seal Kisaragi, and the Level 4 Abyss item 'Kusanagi Sword?' which can directly silence others like a Silence spell.
In addition, there is Sharon, whose danger level is equal to that of a level 3 Abyss item, and who can barely be considered to have entered the realm of heroes.
"Oh, if you calculate it this way, we are both at the hero level, and the threat posed by the level 3 Abyss item to me is obviously less than that to Sharon, who is also at the level 3. And Sharon has only barely stepped into the hero realm with the help of equipment. In other words, within the same level, the danger posed by the Abyss item to me is less than that to the same life form. Luo Shu was not surprised by this.
The function of an abyss item often depends not only on its power, but also on the compatibility of its user. Intelligent people can often more easily exert a higher and stronger power than an abyss item, and because of their intelligence, the danger is also obviously much higher.
In this case, it is foreseeable that props are generally weaker than those of intelligent life forms.
But even so, Luo Shu encountered two things related to the demigod realm in just three or four days. One was a lucky wallet made of demigod scales, and the other was simply a demigod-level Kusanagi sword.
This triggering frequency made Luo Shu sincerely believe in his heart that "this world is full of unpredictable dangers."
"Besides, I promised Lux to be independent and manage a 'department'. If the head of this department is not even as good as the cadres of other secret organizations, then..."
Although the reasons are somewhat subtle, Luo Shu is now full of motivation to upgrade.
But the question is, when it is not easy to obtain points, how can he quickly improve his strength?
This is an unanswerable question.
"After all, I still don't know much about the mysterious side of this world... I have no idea which direction to go."
Thinking of this, Luo Shu focused his attention on the interior of the 'Astronomy Society'.
This is a space specially prepared for Sharon.
At this time, in this small room, the "holy relic" presented by Sharon was lying there quietly.
Luo Shu narrowed his eyes and immediately used the power of the system to identify the origin of the holy relic.
[Jean's Dagger (Heroic Rank)]
[This weapon is infused with the faith of a saint who has entered the realm of demigod. It has a strong restraint on demons and is a rare treasure without side effects. It seems to be a blessing from the saint. (Click to see a hint)]
Seeing this, Luo Shu's expression didn't change much. Instead, the "Click for hints" below made him a little curious.
He thought about it and clicked it directly, and a series of content appeared in the prompt bar.
'The holy relic infused with the strong will of the saint is one of the main materials for the advancement of the follower Sharon to the 'Temple Guardian'. , "Temple 657 Guardian (Hero)"
'A guardian as powerful as a fortress, he possesses the strong defense of a temple. He is the guard who protects the temple of heaven and the priest who is closest to the realm of demigod.
'Advanced materials: a piece of holy cloth, a holy relic infused with the saint's strong will.'
'Supplementary materials: A drop of tears from a pure-hearted girl (1 drop for 1 points)' A pure amount, a holy temple in one's heart.
"Advanced Ceremony: Block the attack of a hero in front of the gate of the holy temple in your mind, and realize the true meaning of power. Note: The duration of this interception must not be less than five minutes.'
"What the hell? To enter the realm of heroes, you need not only materials, but also a ritual to complete?"
When Luo Shu saw this information, he was stunned:
"You think I haven't seen the secrets, right? But this isn't the warrior path, what the hell is this?"
Although he knew the direction of Sharon's advancement, Luo Shu really couldn't be happy at all now.
My Lord God, I am only at the excellent level, not even the elite level. What’s the use of me knowing how you become a hero?
Also, where can he find the temple that Sharon thinks of, and where can he find a hero to fight Sharon for five minutes, and in the process, help Sharon understand the true meaning of power?
If he has this ability, can't he advance on his own?
"This is a rubbish system. There's not even a guide. From now on, I declare that I will unilaterally block you!"
Luo Shu cursed inwardly, and just as he was cursing the system, he suddenly noticed some disturbances within the Astronomy Society.
Chapter 118 The Stunned Demon Warlock (4/4)
In a luxury apartment near Ikebukuro, Nerima District.
A ding-dong sound.
The doorbell kept ringing. Mira Tsubakihara, who was wearing casual clothes, immediately walked out of the living room, went into the entrance hall to change her shoes, then walked to the door and looked at the corridor outside through the peephole.
When she saw through the peephole a heroic figure with black hair and red eyes, wearing a black short-sleeved shirt, standing outside the door, Mira Tsubakihara suddenly realized that it was an employee of her own jewelry store who had come.
"Awaited."
Tsubakihara Mira immediately opened the door and said to the girl outside who looked like a sporty girl:
"Thank you for your hard work, Juuka. It's obviously your off-duty time, but you brought me something because of my business."
"No, it's nothing." Kotori/Uyu Juuka tilted her head calmly and said, "Compared to the care you give me every day, riding a motorcycle to deliver something is nothing."
At this point, Xiaoniao/Uyu Juuka kicked the cardboard box at her feet and pointed at Gobi's door.
"By the way, are we still sending them to Room 302 as before?"
“No, just put it here this time.
Tsubakihara Mira made way for the passage and waved to Kotori/Uyu Juuka:
"Can you help me get it in? I've overstrained my arms at work lately, and now I feel a little weak."
"I personally don't care." Kotori/Kuroyu Juuka glanced at the men's slippers at the entrance with a very calm expression: "As long as Sister Mira doesn't mind me gossiping about who those shoes belong to, then it's OK."
"what?"
Tsubakihara Mira turned her head and looked at Luo Shu's home slippers. She immediately pursed her lips, her expression as if she had eaten sour plums. She then made an incoherent 657 defense:
"You should know, Juhua, that if you often wear high heels, your feet will always feel uncomfortable, so I usually wear men's slippers at home..."
Sister Komila, isn’t your home next door?
Kotori/Kuroyu Juuka calmly pointed to the door next door:
"I just came here once last week. Are you moving so soon?"
"Ah. Well... almost." Mira Tsubakihara was speechless due to guilt, which was completely different from her usual control when facing Luo Shu.
“Forget it, if Sister Mira doesn’t want to say it, I won’t ask.”
Kotori/Uyu Juuka squatted down, picked up the box, and said to Mira:
"Can you lend me your slippers? I'm too lazy to wait."
"Sure." Mira Tsubakihara made way again.
This time, Kotori/Uyu Juuka entered the room easily, put on Luo Shu's shoes, and entered the living room carrying the box.
After casually glancing at the men's clothing hanging on the balcony and also taking a look at the freshly washed men's underwear, Kotori/Kuroyu Juuka said expressionlessly:
“Where are the things?”
"Put it in the study... um no, Juuka, just put it on the table in the living room."
It was a bit strange that Mira Tsubakihara changed her words. Kotori/Kuroyu Juuka glanced at the open door of the study, only to find that there was a lot of space inside the study, and even facilities like a jewelry store's workbench could be seen inside.
Kotori/Kuroyu Juuka silently looked at the size of the room, and after estimating the indoor area of the room, she was suspicious, but she didn't ask any more questions, and just shouted:
"I'll put that thing here. Sister Mira, I've put the 'watch accessories' and other things you requested in the box. Remember to check them yourself."
"Ok."
Mira Tsubakihara walked back into the room. She had just gone next door to get a pair of spare slippers so that she wouldn't have to wear Luo Shu's shoes if someone came over in the future.
At this time, Tsubakihara Mira looked at Kotori/Uyu Juuka standing at the entrance preparing to change shoes, and couldn't help but wonder:
"Touka, are you in a hurry to go back?"
Kotori/Kuroyu Juuka said as she put on her sneakers:
"Ah, I have a useless sister at home who needs to be taken care of. If I don't go back, I'm afraid she'll have to eat a meaningless lunch box again."
"It's really hard work." Mira Tsubakihara couldn't help but sigh.
“Nothing, I’m used to it.
Kotori/Kuroyu Juuka stood up, kicked the tip of her shoe against the entrance tiles, and said:
"By the way, Sister Mira, I have classes at the cooking school tomorrow."
Upon hearing this, Tsubakihara Mira clasped her hands together and said, "Okay, I'll inform the jewelry store manager. Thank you for your hard work this time!"
"Yeah." Kotori/Uyu Juuka nodded silently, then added: "If Sister Mira has a child in the future, I can be the godmother. .... Well, forget it, just pretend I didn't say anything."
Mira Tsubakihara blinked her eyes and looked at Kotori/Uyu Juuka with a smile, her eyes full of innocence.
Kotori/Uyu Juuka turned around, walked out of the room, closed the door, and said in the cold wind:
"It's okay if you don't like it. I just bullied a few kids in front of you...
As she spoke, Kotori/Kuroyu Juuka shook her head and turned to walk towards the elevator.
At this time, in the room, Tsubakihara Mira covered her burning cheeks and said angrily:
"Touka, what child are you talking about...
She touched her burning cheek in distress, turned and walked into the living room, but saw that she had forgotten to close the door of the study, revealing the interior of the astronomy club.
At this moment, Tsubakihara Mira suddenly became alert:
"You probably didn't notice it, did you? Touka isn't the kind of kid who would deliberately barge into someone else's house."
Mira Tsubakihara was a little worried about how to explain to Luo Shu. She sighed, walked forward and picked up the box on the table, then took a few deep breaths, walked into the astronomy club's space with the box in her arms, and placed the box on the workbench.
Accompanied by a tearing sound.
The edge of the box was cut open by Mira Tsubakihara with a knife, and at this moment, an illusory white insect sniper suddenly shot out from the cut.
Mira Tsubakihara did not panic at this sudden change. Instead, she disappeared from her original spot very abruptly and appeared ten meters away.
"How could this happen?" Mapa in mid-air looked dully at Mira Tsubakihara who suddenly dodged away, and the face of the person on the insect's back was stunned.
At this time, Tsubakihara Mira said with a complicated expression:
"Is it really as Luo Shu said, that the demon warlock has been eyeing my 'identity' from the beginning, and is considering me as a backup for resurrection after failure?"
At this point, Tsubakihara Mira took a deep breath and immediately asked:
"Should I call you Mapa, or Miss Isahha the Mind Flayer?"
Mapa, or 'Isaha', showed a shocked expression, as if she had never expected that her identity would be exposed by Mira Tsubakihara.
"Because she hid her true female identity at the beginning and took over a male's body to act, if that fails, she can take over the body of a woman with a special identity as a cover, and avoid the eyes of all coveters. This is exactly what Luo Shu and Shi Yu guessed."
After hearing Mira Tsubakihara explain her thoughts, Ishaha immediately realized that her plan had been exposed. She no longer had the opportunity to seize Mira Tsubakihara's body and continue to plot against the bloodline of the high-level demon.
And the most important thing is that she seems to be in the enemy's home ground now.
Thinking of this, Isaha stood up the insect sniper's body without hesitation, and the female face on its back immediately prayed in the demon language:
"
A noble son of hell."
"The master of lost knowledge."
"A Proclaimer of the Past and the Future"
"The great demon god Vashago!"
"I pray for your guidance, and ask that you give me the knowledge to escape from this place."
At this moment, from nowhere, a great will descended from the distant abyss to the world and descended upon Ishaha.
That is the Lord of Hell, one of the 72 Pillars of Demons, the source of Isah's bloodline, who is responding to the Demon Clan through the connection.
