Chapter 665 Cancer Invites
Chapter 665 Cancer Invites
The devil... is carving a portrait of me?
After listening to what the Cancer director said, although it felt like a lot of teasing, Leon's teeth still felt sore and swollen, and he had to bite several times before he could recover.
Although my methods may be a little bit extreme, I still think I am a good person. These bastards...
"Ahahaha! You actually believed it!"
After seeing Yanang's awkward expression, Director Cancer suddenly laughed twice, and then joked:
"How could the demons carve a portrait of you? Let's not even talk about whether they have the skills to do so. Those demons have never even seen what you look like. How can they be sure that the person they carved is you?"
Damn... Turns out he's a fun person...
"So the statues they worship are all those I sold."
Ah? ? ?
"I can't help it. Those demons gave me too much."
In the face of Leon's somewhat confused expression, Director Cancer blinked... Well, he said with a slightly sighed expression:
"You don't know, the Abyss is the most difficult to control in the nearby world. If those demons really work together, it would probably take most of the Cleanup Bureau to suppress it.
Fortunately, those abyss demons are used to fighting each other, and it is basically unlikely that they will unite. If I use a little bit of skill, make friends with or even support a small part of them, it will be much easier to defend them. The object of support I chose is the Abyss of Gluttony.
Your statues are in great demand there now. If you sell them some stone carvings, you can save a lot of trouble, deepen the relationship between the two sides, and even get a lot of rare materials. If you don't do this business, you will lose a lot."
"..."
If you say so, it’s not impossible...but why do I feel that your painting style is different from others?
"Mr. Cancer..."
Leon was really a little uncomfortable, and couldn't help but ask tentatively:
"What do you mean by telling me this?"
"It's nothing, I just like you."
After rubbing his bulging belly with his hands, the Cancer director, who looked very lucky, said with a smile:
"I am several years older than Taurus, and I don't have much time left. I have to quickly train a successor. I have read your file and feel that you might be suitable for learning the secret arts of Cancer, so I asked you to come over to familiarize yourself with it."
Ah... I thought you were using my portrait rights to do business and were going to give me some dividends... So what is the Cancer secret technique?
Unfortunately, Director Cancer not only had no intention of respecting the portrait rights, but also did not even prepare to explain what the Cancer Palace secret technique was. He just reached out and patted Leon on the arm, then smiled and said:
"Okay, go back and wait for notification!
There are about three or five cleaners in the bureau who are suspected to have the qualifications to learn the Cancer secret technique, besides you. Once I contact them and gather everyone together, I will teach you together."
"Ah, okay."
Although he didn't get any dividends, the opportunity to learn a secret skill was something he cherished very much. Naturally, Leon would not refuse the invitation from the Cancer director.
However, just as he was about to inquire about what the power of the Cancer secret technique was, the Cancer director withdrew his hand from his arm, and everything around him began to retreat uncontrollably.
Leon only felt a slight blur in front of his eyes, and his body retreated directly to an unknown distance, and stood again behind the red-haired director. At the same time, the seat of the Cancer director was slightly lit, and a familiar gentle voice once again reached Leon's ears.
"Sorry, I cast the last vote against it."
"???"
Wait, didn’t you say this once before?
After blinking at the somewhat bewildered Leon, Director Cancer said with a smile:
"Director Sagittarius believes that he should be held fully responsible for this palace visit... He hopes that I can come back and take charge of the situation on his behalf..."
"..."
Seeing Director Cancer standing up from his seat, politely greeting the branch directors and explaining the reason in a gentle manner, Leon came back to his senses from his trance and subconsciously looked down at his left arm.
The pattern of a giant crab with fat claws and a round belly was slowly fading its original color and quietly disappearing under his skin, but on his arm, there was still a little touch of the Cancer director's palm. So... everything that happened just now really happened, but it didn't really happen in "reality", but was some kind of communication on the soul or spiritual level?
"Leon?"
Noticing that the person behind him was breathing a little disordered, the red-haired director turned around and cast a puzzled look at Leon.
"How did you... um... I see."
After looking at Yang's arm, the red-haired director frowned slightly, and then a look of understanding flashed across his eyes.
"Did Mr. Cancer talk to you just now?"
“It should be…”
After reaching out and touching his arm, looking at the prompt of [Cancer Palace Secret Art Mark], Leon said uncertainly:
'My consciousness seemed to have been "pulled" away just now. Mr. Cancer said he wanted to get to know me. He also said that I seemed to have a talent for Cancer's secret arts and was ready to let me give it a try.'
The secret technique of Cancer?
The red-haired director thought for a moment after hearing this, then nodded in agreement.
"Indeed, judging from your past experience, you may have the talent to learn the secret arts of Cancer."
'Director.'
After listening to the red-haired chief's judgment, Leon couldn't help but ask curiously:
'What is the secret technique of Cancer? Is it effective?'
'Very strong. If we only look at the effect in combat, the Aries Palace's Destruction Secret Art is the first tier, and the Cancer Palace's Devouring Secret Art is the second tier right behind it.'
'Swallow?'
"It is edible, but what it eats is abnormal."
After glancing in the direction of Director Cancer, the red-haired director did not continue to participate in the discussion of the subsequent meeting, but grabbed Leon's hand and explained:
'The effect of the Cancer Secret Art is somewhat similar to some of the abilities of the sheep. Just like you told me before, if you collect both the sheep tongue and the sheep stomach, you can temporarily increase your Lyon value to 60 points by eating abnormal objects.
The Cancer Palace's [Abnormal Devouring] secret technique, although it cannot increase your Lyon value, can store a large amount of abnormalities in your body through eating, and then release them all at once at a critical moment, and there is no upper limit to this storage.'
'hiss……'
Leon couldn't help but gasp when he heard this.
"So the anomaly eaten by the Cancer Secret Technique does not need to consume its own power when it is released? "
'No, the expenses that should be paid still need to be paid, and not a single cent less.'
'? ? ? '
If that's the case, then isn't the function of this secret technique just a "storage bag" with unlimited capacity? It doesn't sound like it would be of much help in combat, right?
'Leon, the scope of anomalies is actually wider than you think.'
After glancing back at Leon, the red-haired chief squeezed his palm and reminded him:
'The dead, demons, holy spirits, nightmares, and even true gods, these "non-human" existences can actually be considered anomalies.'
