Chapter 696

"Next, it's time to try venturing into C-grade dungeons; my strength should be sufficient."

Under normal circumstances, the boss of a C-grade dungeon will be at the fifth-turn level, definitely much more powerful than the half-step fifth-turn boss on the fiftieth floor of the Tower of Heavenly Silence.

The loot is naturally also very luxurious.

C-grade dungeons are densely packed with elite monsters, far exceeding ordinary dungeons in number, and the difficulty increases sharply.

"Since I'm going to enter a C-grade dungeon, I should naturally take a Heavenly Tower mission along the way to maximize the gains."

Su Ming took off his personal token and browsed the missions within.

Being an Shi Shi-level hunter allows for remote mission acceptance; it's truly convenient.

Suddenly, a hidden bounty mission caught his eye.

This bounty can only be accepted with priority by hunters of Shi Shi level and above.

Other hunters can only see it on the bulletin board after a week, by which time the mission would have long been snatched up.

【B-grade Bounty Mission】

【Location: C-grade Dungeon · Zombie Siege】

【Target: Fei Mu, Fifth-turn Curse-Corpse Warlock】

【Fei Mu is an extremely cruel wanted criminal who collects the zombie virus in the dungeon to refine it, repeatedly using it to carry out assassinations on the Blue Star. The victims' appearances are usually miserable and strange; they die without falling, still maintaining a craving for cannibalism. He has hidden in the zombie dungeon for many years and is extremely familiar with the environment. Be careful; many who have accepted this mission in the past have vanished without a trace】

【Reward: 5 million Myriad-Race Coins, Outer-Garment Synthesis Cloth (Top-tier Diamond)】

Bounty missions, unlike monster-hunting missions, are not rated based on the strength realm of the hunted.

Instead, they are rated based on the evil degree of the crimes committed, the severity of the negative impact, and the level of danger.

The wanted criminal Su Ming killed in the Plain Forest, the 27-level Disguiser Ding Pan, although only at the second turn, was already listed as a C-grade bounty.

It is conceivable how many innocent newcomers he had murdered.

And now this B-grade bounty, Fei Mu, is even more heavyweight, actually using the zombie virus to carry out killings, so he was naturally rated at a very high bounty level.

As for the next level up, that would be A-grade; one must at least slaughter hundreds of people to be qualified to become an A-grade bounty criminal.

Su Ming accepted it without hesitation.

"As expected of a B-grade bounty mission, it's truly generous; one is 5 million Myriad-Race Coins."

"Doing two, and I could buy an Shi Shi-grade piece of equipment."

The Outer-Garment Synthesis Cloth is also a good thing, capable of fusing two pieces of equipment together for evolution and sublimation.

His Decay-Breaking Sword Shirt was fused and sublimated through a Platinum-grade Outer-Garment Synthesis Cloth.

It just so happens that this piece of armor of his also needs an upgrade; after all, it's only lower-tier Diamond, and its effects are somewhat lacking.

At this time, a woman with a weathered face passed by Su Ming, leading a little girl down the street.

"Mommy... it doesn't hurt..."

The little girl had her hair in braids, and there were deep red marks on her face.

These red scars filled her shoulders and neck, like rotting skin.

One can imagine that for flesh without skin protection, even a breeze blowing over would cause her great pain.

It looked like she had contracted some kind of strange disease.

She held on through the pain and gave her mother a smile.

The woman was heartbroken upon hearing this and squatted down, wiping the tears from her daughter's eyes.

"Sorry... my daughter."

"Mommy doesn't have the money to cure you, there's no way..."

"Forgive Mommy." When she said this, she couldn't help but cry out loud.

Asking her daughter to forgive her?

In fact, she couldn't even forgive herself...

She was just an ordinary laborer, not awakened as a job-changer; although her husband had once been a three-star talent job-changer, he had died miserably in a dungeon five years ago.

Leaving only her and her daughter alone and helpless.

Although she worked with all her might and held four part-time jobs, she still couldn't afford the high cost of the items to cure her daughter.

Su Ming sat on the bench nearby and immediately used his Eye of Insight to check the girl's illness.

【Lupus Erythematosus】

【An immune system disease that can endanger multiple organs and the skin, causing great pain to the patient; if left untreated, she will die within five months】

【Can be completely cured through items like Gold-quality Gene Stabilization Pill, Cell Regeneration Oral Liquid, etc.】

The disease plaguing this poor mother and girl could actually be cured with just one tube of Gold-quality Cell Regeneration Liquid?

This is the disparity of the world; for a powerful job-changer like Su Ming, it only costs 100,000.

But for that mother and daughter, it is a lifelong pain.

It was only 100,000 Arrival Coins; for Su Ming, it could be called a drop in the bucket!

He exchanged for it immediately.

The next instant, a tube of blue liquid appeared in his hand, with red particles flowing within it; it looked very mysterious.

Su Ming walked up to the little girl and handed her this tube of medicine.

"This can cure your illness," he said with a smile.

The little girl was young and ignorant, not understanding the ways of the world.

She only knew that the big brother looked kind; without the slightest hesitation, she nodded and drank it all in one gulp.

Her mother, standing beside her, looked anxious and didn't even have time to stop her.

What if he was a bad person?

In this world, there is no such thing as kindness for no reason; she knew this best.

Having taken her daughter to seek medical treatment everywhere for years, having been cheated and bullied, she knew well that the human world was sinister.

"It's so sweet." After the girl finished drinking, her eyes brightened slightly.

The next instant, something that shocked the mother happened.

She saw the red spots on the girl's face fade at a speed visible to the naked eye, turning into fair, clean skin; her daughter, who had originally looked pale, recovered all at once.

The disease... was completely cured.

The mother looked shocked and immediately hugged her daughter, crying bitterly.

She wanted to turn around to thank him.

But she found that the mysterious young man had already disappeared.

Only a remnant of a sword mark remained in the air.

"Lord Job-changer, thank you, thank you..." she shouted, tears streaming down her face.
