Chapter 573: Still Some Flaws

Thinking of this, Yingzhou remembered he still had two Random Draw chances unused; he had saved one before just in case, but now that he had the Lucky Random Draw, the ordinary Random Draw was of little use.

"Opportunities are hard to come by. Since today is such a joyous day, why not just draw? Why not give it a try?"

Beside him, Jack watched as Yingzhou suddenly began muttering to himself in a mysterious way, speaking words he could understand individually, but which made no sense when strung together.

Jack was just about to speak when he saw Yingzhou turn back to look at him, saying in a hurried tone.

"Jack, go ahead and busy yourself with whatever you have to do; I'll find a place to rest for a bit."

Saying this, he walked out of the fields, found a shady spot to sit cross-legged, and ignoring the mud spots on his clothes, he performed the luck-seeking ritual he had figured out.

"System, perform one ordinary Random Draw first."

This time, Yingzhou stated the full name directly, all to prevent the system from using up his Lucky Random Draw.

"Consuming 1 Random Draw attempt, drawing now..."

"Congratulations to the host for obtaining 5 Grey Knights."

Seeing that he had drawn five more Grey Knights, Yingzhou raised an eyebrow, his mind already made up regarding where these five Grey Knights would go.

It had to be the Seventh Defense Zone where Vulkan was currently stationed; although the Demon had retreated for unknown reasons, in the future, that place would inevitably be a battlefield for fighting the Demon.

"Hmm, this reward is not bad."

Yingzhou nodded, lamenting that his luck seemed much better than before; thinking of this, Yingzhou spoke directly.

"System, use up the remaining ordinary Random Draw."

"Consuming 1 Random Draw attempt, drawing now..."

"Congratulations to the host for obtaining the Illusion Ability."

"Illusion Ability?"

Upon hearing there was a new ability, Yingzhou immediately became interested and asked the system directly.

"System, what is the use of this Illusion Ability? Come out and explain!"

After a few seconds, the system's voice appeared in Yingzhou's mind.

"Illusion Ability, as the name implies, allows the host to consume Spiritual Power and Faith Value to change their appearance, height, and gender.

Please note, host, that when Faith Value or Spiritual Power is insufficient, the Illusion Ability will fail."

Upon hearing the effects of this Illusion Ability, Yingzhou felt a surge of joy; this way, he could change into someone else's appearance when going out, avoiding unnecessary commotion.

"This is great, I'll try it right now!"

Saying this, Yingzhou began to attempt using the Illusion Ability, wrapping his body in Spiritual Power; his body changed visibly to the naked eye, eventually turning into the appearance he had in his previous life.

Yingzhou looked down at his somewhat unfamiliar palms, feeling a momentary trance; if he hadn't transmigrated, perhaps he would still be living a life like a salted fish, playing games after work every day, and eating skewers and bragging with friends...

Suddenly feeling his eyes grow moist, he covered his eyes with his hands, took a deep breath to suppress his inner emotions, and then slowly stood up; the lower perspective made Yingzhou feel a bit unaccustomed for a moment.

"Whew... for now, let's see if there are any places in the Ninth Defense Zone that need improvement."

Yingzhou was walking on the streets of the Ninth Defense Zone; since it was morning, there were not many residents on the street, and the scattered residents were all busy with their own affairs, with many heading toward the Training Camp in the Outer City.

Now that the residents of the Outer City had undergone simple training by the Cadian soldiers, not only had their physical fitness improved, but they could also stably provide Yingzhou with Faith Value.

While passing the Training Camp, Yingzhou glanced inside and saw these residents training; under the instruction of the Cadian soldiers, they had no trouble executing various commands.

"Hmm, the things these Cadian soldiers say during training are also one of the reasons why my Faith Value is increasing rapidly now."

Yingzhou did not linger, only glancing briefly into the Training Camp before continuing to check other parts of the Ninth Defense Zone Outer City.

Just as Yingzhou passed a residential area, a faint sound of striking seemed to reach his ears; it must be someone fighting.

Yingzhou frowned; he had anticipated such situations, and it was precisely for this reason that he had stationed a portion of the Modian Iron Guard in the Outer City to maintain order.

It wasn't that the Modian Iron Guard wasn't doing a good job—the general order of the Outer City was fine—but Yingzhou also knew that friction would always arise between people.

These frictions did not pose a threat to order, so the Modian Iron Guard naturally wouldn't bother with these minor issues.

"It seems that as the physical fitness of the Outer City residents improves, conflicts caused by disputes are very likely to escalate into brawls involving many people, or even fights between different groups.

Hmm, it seems I have found some areas in the Outer City that need modification.

When the time comes, I will have Angron and Jack formulate a set of basic laws to restrain these pugnacious individuals; if they really like to fight, the Military District is more suitable for them—it would be better to let them expend their energy on the Alien Race."

Following the direction of the sound, Yingzhou entered a dark alley, and after turning a few corners, he found the source of the noise.

Three or four burly men were surrounding a youth; two of the men were punching and kicking the youth. The youth was blocking with his hands, and even though the others were attacking him in turns, he did not fight back, but the calmness in his eyes made Yingzhou raise an eyebrow.

"Hmm? Looks like he still wants to counterattack?"

Seeing the look in the youth's eyes, Yingzhou consciously retreated to the corner of the alley, wanting to see how the youth intended to counterattack.

The bearded leader grabbed the youth by the collar and slammed him against the wall.

"Aren't you tough? Let me teach you a lesson!"

"Right!"

Blood seeped from the corner of the youth's mouth, but the force of his arms blocking did not slacken, and he tried his best to avoid being hit in vital areas.

"Whew... still daring to talk back!"

The burly man was a bit tired from hitting, his breathing somewhat disordered; just as he prepared to swing his fist down again, he suddenly felt his vision go black and fell directly to the ground. After several seconds, his consciousness recovered, and he saw that the youth had already begun to counterattack and was currently engaging his other companion.

Both sides had just consumed a lot of stamina, but it was clear that the youth's earlier blocking had preserved some energy; after testing the waters with a few moves, he thrust a straight punch out with lightning speed, hitting the burly man in the face.

Seeing that the youth intended to continue the attack, the burly man shouted loudly to his companions watching from the sidelines.

"Stop watching, come and help, restrain him!"
