Chapter 169
Luo Chenyu turned his head to look at Li Yunxi, his face full of confusion.
"Some weird thing the Ground Rats cooked up. I don't know what it's called, but it's filled with evil power that can make professionals lose their minds, even turn them into undead zombies that are neither human nor ghost."
"Hiss… there's something that outrageous?"
Luo Chenyu was shocked.
"If something like this got out, wouldn't it cause a zombie apocalypse…"
"Read fewer novels…"
Li Yunxi patted Luo Chenyu's sturdy back, speechless: "This thing isn't contagious, and with the Ground Rats' ability, they have no way to use it on a large scale."
"Phew… that's good!"
Luo Chenyu thought of the apocalyptic movies he'd watched in his previous life, those terrifying end-of-the-world scenes. He really didn't want to go through a doomsday survival.
"Then how do we deal with this thing?"
"Just hand it over to your aunt. Once you become an official member of the Barbarian God Corps, you'll have to handle these things too. There'll be a dedicated instructor to teach you when the time comes."
As Li Yunxi spoke, a red light suddenly appeared in her hand. As the light flared, the red glow shot from her palm, wrapped around the strange object, and vanished without a trace.
"Your aunt will hold onto this thing for you first. When the time comes, I'll give you the Barbarian God Corps points for it."
"Hahaha, there are Barbarian God Corps points too, not bad!"
As expected…
He never goes home empty-handed!
Now, his backpack held quite a few good things.
The drops from the Wang father and son alone could let him rake in a fortune.
"Right, I'm already level fifty. Does that mean I don't have to report to East Sea Academy and can directly become an official member of the Barbarian God Corps?"
As soon as these words came out.
Li Yunxi was slightly stunned. "You're already level fifty?"
Leveling up isn't that simple. Generally, a newly awakened professional wanting to reach level fifty would need at least a year or two.
Besides the Class Change conditions, the Class Change Advancement quest also requires a lot of time to prepare.
But now…
Luo Chenyu, who had just completed his first Class Change the day before yesterday, had now overcome the hurdle of the second Class Change and reached level fifty.
But thinking about it, it was reasonable.
After all, Luo Chenyu had entered 【Ninefold Abyss】, where the experience was extremely generous. Combined with the numerous BOSSes and elite monsters, it could indeed send his level soaring.
Regarding Luo Chenyu's question.
Li Yunxi shook her head and said: "You're too special. Auntie has to report this matter to the Corps Commander and let him decide."
"Alright then…"
Luo Chenyu was slightly disappointed. He had been thinking that once he became an official member, he could go see what good things the Barbarian God Corps had to offer.
He wondered if there were hidden class quest scrolls for tank classes above S-rank.
As his strength grew.
He already looked down on B-rank hidden classes—at the very least, he'd want an S-rank one.
At this moment.
General Situ walked over. The black-robed figure was no longer by his side, seemingly imprisoned by him through some unknown means.
"This isn't the place to chat. Let's talk back at Mount Huilong City!"
"Right!" Li Yunxi, who rarely didn't talk back to General Situ, said to Luo Chenyu beside her: "You've been busy all day, you must be tired. Go back and rest first!"
However…
Luo Chenyu shook his head and smiled: "I still have some things to take care of. Mm, I need to let them leave first…"
Although Li Yunxi and General Situ were puzzled, they didn't ask.
On the other hand, General Situ, hearing Luo Chenyu's words, directly faced the surrounding onlookers.
"Barbarian God Corps on duty. All unrelated personnel, stand aside!"
As soon as these words came out.
Everyone, including An Chen and He Tian, was stunned for a moment.
Then, casting one reluctant glance at Luo Chenyu, they slowly started walking, the group heading toward Longshan City.
An Chen came to Luo Chenyu's side and said: "Brother Xiaoyu, get a good rest tonight. Tomorrow… uh, find some time today to drop by the school."
Before they knew it, it was already past midnight.
Luo Chenyu nodded. He had some things he wanted to say to An Chen as well.
Regarding the inside story of the Luo family, An Chen must know something. If this matter wasn't cleared up, it would stick in his throat.
"Principal, I understand!"
After Luo Chenyu quietly watched the crowd leave.
After thinking it over, he decided to get some of the questions in his heart cleared up first.
Then, he took out the 【Eternal Token】 from his spatial backpack, held it in his palm, and said: "Auntie, Senior Situ, do you know about the 【Eternal Token】?"
"【Eternal Token】?!"
General Situ and Li Yunxi said in unison: "You… where did you get that?"
"Uh, it was given by the treasure chest from the first Class Change quest."
"Hiss!!" General Situ sucked in a cold breath and sighed: "You kid really have great luck!"
Besides surprise, Li Yunxi's face also showed joy. "That's right, Brother Xiaoyu's luck is really good!"
"So… what does it do?"
However, to his surprise, Li Yunxi actually shook her head.
It was General Situ who spoke up instead.
"One time I was drinking with the boss, and I did hear him mention the matter of the Eternal Token."
"Then please, Senior Situ, tell us."
General Situ organized his thoughts and said, "The Eternal Token is extremely, extremely rare. The boss said that throughout the entire Xuanlong Nation, the number of holders wouldn't exceed a single hand, and even he didn't have one."
"It's said that it allows entry into a place called the 'Eternal Arena,' where you fight against some mysterious people. Win, and you receive rewards — extremely generous rewards."
"However, opening the 'Eternal Arena' is also very difficult. It requires passing trials of great difficulty, and it's very dangerous inside. Those mysterious people are extremely powerful — one careless moment and you'll suffer permanent, irreversible damage, or even... death!"
Luo Chenyu listened carefully, but his thoughts drifted to the words of the Lord of Flame Demons, and for the moment he couldn't be sure.
At this moment.
General Situ's voice came again, "The boss said he has a friend who obtained an item inside the arena — supposedly even more badass than a divine artifact."
"Kid, you need to seize this chance. With your strength, as long as you complete the Third-Turn trial, you'll at least be comparable to some Tier 7 prodigies."
Li Yunxi listened quietly, not interjecting.
She had indeed heard of the Eternal Token — even within the Berserker God Legion, there were missions related to the Eternal Token.
But...
She didn't know the details.
At this moment, hearing General Situ's words, she slowly spoke: "Brother Xiaoyu, your aunt still suggests you wait until your strength improves a bit more before going to the 'Eternal Arena.' Play it safe!"
General Situ: "..."
Damn! He actually heard the words "play it safe" come out of Li Yunxi's mouth.
Within the Berserker God Legion.
Apart from the boss, Li Yunxi and he were the most reckless.
Playing it safe — for them, that was the biggest joke.
Luo Chenyu nodded thoughtfully, "Auntie, I know. Actually, I haven't even opened the 'Eternal Arena' yet — I need to reach Third-Turn before I can."
"Oh?"
The two uttered surprised sounds, but didn't press further.
"Brother Xiaoyu, what exactly do you need to do that you have to dismiss those people?"
Luo Chenyu smiled and said, "I'm going to complete the Second-Turn trial of the Eternal Tower, and then see if I can knock out the Third-Turn mission too."
"Uh..."
General Situ was speechless, "No wonder you've grown so fast, kid — seizing every moment to improve. Just back from the Ninefold Abyss, and then fighting Tier 7 and Tier 8 opponents one after another. Aren't you tired?"
"Brother Xiaoyu, pay attention to balancing work and rest..."
Luo Chenyu: "..."
