Chapter 67: Growth during the Intermission (Part )

The priest left the study and closed the door behind him.

Bishop Mo stood up, stretched out his hand, and shook hands with Su Ming.

"Have friends come from afar."

"Please take a seat."

"My dear friend, how should I address you?"

Su Ming came to another chair in front of the desk and sat down.

After thinking for a while, he replied, "Well, you can just call me a game nerd."

Bishop Mo's mouth twitched: "Your name... is really unique."

"In that case, I'll just call you Xiao You."

Su Ming: "Okay, Bishop Mo."

Bishop Mo: "You are not a member of our church, just call me Elder Mo."

"Well, Xiao You, can you tell me your story first?"

Su Ming discovered that this time was different from the last time he went to Yan Shuangying to learn skills.

Last time, Yan Shuangying was very straightforward. When they met, he just pulled him to practice intensively.

After that, he was assigned various tasks crazily.

There is basically no communication with the others, they are like a training machine without emotions.

This time, Bishop Mo seemed much more humane.

Su Ming began to recount his experience in the black town: "It all started on a bus..."

Anyway, the world is growing between the scenes.

He didn't hide anything.

Say anything.

There's no hiding the fact that he knows a lot.

He just didn't say directly that his information came from that CD.

Bishop Mo listened to Su Ming's story with great interest.

He would occasionally interrupt and ask about some details.

Su Ming: "...That's it. I will kill all those cultists and destroy the nine sacrifices."

Bishop Mo nodded: "You did a good job. You helped that branch to avenge its vengeance."

Su Ming asked curiously, "Why don't you send someone over to help that branch of the Church of Light?"

"Those cultists shouldn't be your opponents, right?"

He felt an unfathomable feeling from Bishop Mo.

Since there is a Bishop Mo.

There must be other experts as well.

As long as a few strong men of this level go there, it shouldn't be too difficult to deal with the cultists in the black town.

Bishop Mo shook his head: "We can't get through."

"I can't explain the reason in detail. You have to figure it out yourself."

Bishop Mo smiled and said, "Thank you, Xiao You, for letting me hear such a wonderful experience."

"So, have you encountered any difficulties recently?"

"You can tell me about it. I've lived a long time and have seen a lot. Maybe I can give you some advice."

The highlight is finally here.

Su Ming came here for this.

He started talking directly: "Here is the thing, I have the ability to know what will happen in the future."

Bishop Mo was not too shocked to hear this.

He smiled and said, "What a promising ability! Knowing this earlier is priceless."

"If you can use this advantage well, it can bring you great benefits."

Su Ming continued: "I used this ability to see into the future and knew that I would soon face a very difficult enemy."

"It was in an old castle, and there was a puppet inside..."

Listening to Su Ming's story, Bishop Mo gradually became shocked.

He originally thought that the ability Su Ming was talking about was similar to a wizard's divination.

When he was young, he met a beautiful witch.

The other party has a crystal ball that allows him to glimpse a corner of the future.

And it never went wrong.

This was the most powerful ability to predict the future that he had ever seen.

Many more extraordinary beings who claim to have the ability to see the future are Riddlers.

Give you a few words or a prophecy and ask you to guess.

He also keeps saying from time to time that fate cannot be peeped into, and if you peeke into it, it will change.

It was as if he was making up for the failure of his prediction in advance.

Sometimes he even wondered if those guys were scammers.

Being able to be like this young man in front of me, not only can I know the future for such a long time.

And you can continue to try and make mistakes, as if trying to change your ability.

This was the first time he had heard of it.

This is so powerful that it is terrifying!

No wonder he could do that in a black town.

Use the weak to defeat the strong, use a little force to achieve a great result, and destroy those cultists.

Su Ming's story came to an end: "...In short, this is what happened."

"We are now in a stalemate. I can't kill him, and he can't kill me."

"If I were to face him head-on in my current state, I would only be able to defeat him slightly at best."

“Is there anything you can teach me?”

Bishop Mo let out a long sigh and said with emotion: "There are so many heroes in this world!"

"I'm old. I really am old."

Su Ming agreed deeply: "That puppet is indeed very powerful. It is much more difficult to deal with than the cultists in the black town."

Bishop Mo: "No, I'm not talking about that puppet, I'm talking about you!"

"If my guess is correct, the puppet's ability is not surprising."

"Compared to your ability to predict the future, it's like heaven and earth is different!"

Su Ming concentrated on thinking why Bishop Mo said that.

He must have discovered something from what he just said that he was not aware of.

Only then would he say such a thing.

But what is it exactly?

I have tried many times and have thought of every possible way.

That puppet's full-map vision is really unreasonable.

Moreover, the other party reacted very quickly, leaving him almost no chance.

It seems that Su Ming can’t figure it out.

Bishop Mo reminded: “Do you know?”

"As soon as you came into the study, I could see that you were extraordinary."

"Your temperament, your smell, your eyes, all hide a murderous aura."

"Although your disguise is quite good, it's still too naive in the eyes of an old guy like me." Su Ming's eyes widened.

Lightning of inspiration strikes the brain.

"You mean, the puppet had already set its sights on me when I first entered the castle and hadn't done anything yet?"

Bishop Mo nodded: "This is just my guess based on my own experience."

"Whether this is the case or not, you still need to judge for yourself."

Su Ming suddenly felt enlightened.

Like seeing the blue sky after parting the clouds.

He originally thought that his disguise was so clever that it was impossible to be seen through.

After all, as a professional killer, one of the most important abilities is to not let others know that you are a killer.

He thought he was doing very well.

During his growth during the last intermission, the success of countless missions built up his confidence.

But now it seems that my disguise is still not strong enough!
If that's the case, everything makes sense.

The puppet saw through his peculiarity and had been watching his every move closely.

It is not possible to perfectly control everything in the castle.

Instead, he was staring at him specifically.

Moreover, that guy pretended not to have noticed it in advance.

Only after he behaved abnormally did he start to take various actions.

Create the illusion for him that no matter what he does in the castle, he will be discovered.

He was deceived for five whole days.

If Bishop Mo hadn’t pointed it out.

He probably won't realize this until the copy begins.

Bishop Mo comforted him, "There's no need to be depressed. You just don't have enough experience."

"If I were the same age as you, I would have been fooled as well."

Su Ming: "Thanks to your reminder, I finally know what's going on. However, there is still one question."

"How can I make him unable to see through my disguise?"

Bishop Mo: "The most difficult disguise to see through is no disguise."

“The highest level of disguise is truth.”

"Maybe you can find an ordinary job nearby and try working there for a while."

Su Ming seemed to be thinking about something.

the next day.

A young man looking for a job came to a noodle restaurant in this city.

"I see your store is hiring waiters, how about letting me try?"

……

that's it.

Su Ming spent ten years in this city.

During these ten years, he worked as a waiter in several small restaurants, carrying plates and serving food to customers every day.

I also worked part-time handing out flyers. For a few dozen yuan, I stood in the hot summer sun handing out flyers to passers-by...

Finally, he joined a fairly famous company in the city and worked as a white-collar worker for a year, which was considered a very decent job.

But because he offended his boss, he was fired.

From the perspective of his colleagues, Su Ming was carrying this thing in a daze and left the company.

Under the setting sun, the long back figure was full of loneliness.

It makes colleagues feel sad.

What a poor young man! He was fired after only working for a year.

I'm afraid he has to go to the hotel to serve dishes again?

I must learn from his example and not fall into his footsteps and become a loser.

Colleagues in the company all felt a strong sense of crisis and began to work overtime on their own initiative to create KPIs.

Su Ming himself came to the church.

Meet Bishop Mo again.

During these ten years, he would come to chat with Bishop Mo from time to time.

Bishop Mo's guidance helped him avoid many detours.

After seeing Su Ming, Bishop Mo was very happy and nodded with a smile: "Not bad, very good. The impression you give people now is that of a down-and-out white-collar worker."

"Your disguise, or acting skills, have reached perfection. Even an old fellow like me can hardly detect the slightest clue."

Su Ming said, "Mr. Mo, I came here this time to say goodbye."

"I'm leaving."

The horror game a while ago reminded him that the time for growth during this intermission was over.

He is leaving soon.

The smile on Mo Lao's face also disappeared a little: "Leaving so soon?"

Su Ming: "It's been ten years already, that's not fast."

Mr. Mo: "So ten years have passed... It really goes by so fast!"

He waved his hand: "Let's go, let's go, come back and sit down again when we have the chance."

"Old man, there are still many things I can teach you here."

During these ten years, he has become accustomed to Su Ming's presence.

The other party is really a very good young man. Over the past ten years, I have absorbed a lot of his wisdom and experience, and my progress is quite obvious.

If it weren't for his special status, he would have wanted the other party to join the Church of Light.

Train him to be his successor.

Su Ming bowed deeply to Mr. Mo.

"Thank you for your care during this time. I hope you can take care of yourself and stay with the sun and light forever."

"I am leaving."

……

……

Lucheng, residential area.

Su Ming returned here again.

This period of growth took a full ten years!
And the ability description in his personal panel also changed again!
[Ability evaluation: A top professional killer, physically strong, especially good at using pistols. Immersed in role-playing and learning in ordinary life, he has honed top-notch disguise skills and is extremely deceptive.]

He began to continue to conquer the game "Puppet's Game Castle".

Everything began to become different!

With his improved abilities, he has more options!

This time, it only took him one day to achieve a perfect ending.

The mountains that were once insurmountable have now turned into low hills.

There are still four days until the game starts.

It was enough for him to fill in the gaps and gain a comprehensive understanding of the information of this copy.

　Intermission is over! There is nothing else to say.

　　I'll enter the dungeon tomorrow! This time it really is tomorrow.
