CHAPTER 383: CHAPTER 382, ANGELINA’S NEW SKILL_1

"Are you fucking sending me to certain death?"

You should know, when facing a Prosecutor, Heroes are immune to 100% of the damage. So what’s the point of a hundredfold amplification?

Jiang Chen was furious. "You might as well have made me face All Gods."

"You’ll secretly take action when the time comes."

"It’s not about secretly taking action; it’s that he’s immune to damage! Have you forgotten his identity? Forgotten mine?"

"But you can kill a Prosecutor, can’t you?"

"Did I say that?"

"Yes."

Jiang Chen was utterly bewildered.

How would I know that? Mysterious Heavenly Finger is a Wanderer power. I don’t think I told Daphne about it! How does she know? Could she have the Mind Reading Technique?

Mysterious Heavenly Finger was Jiang Chen’s biggest secret and the only Wanderer power he possessed. Even now, Jiang Chen didn’t understand why, as a Hero, he had the power of a Wanderer.

Skills like Wan Jian Gui Clan, Jianqi Zongheng, Blade Storm, Sword Qi Shatter, and so on, were all Badge Skills evolved from Wanderer Martial Arts, belonging entirely to the power of Badges.

Only Mysterious Heavenly Finger was a true Wanderer power.

It was pure, unadulterated Wanderer True Qi.

And Wanderers, ignoring all defenses, could indeed kill Prosecutors and disregard 100% damage immunity.

"We Incubi are different; we always get the toughest tasks. Last time it was a designated Prosecutor. I think it’s the same this time."

Jiang Chen said helplessly, "We’ll see when the time comes. If it really doesn’t work out, I’ll have someone else intervene."

"Who?"

"A Wanderer."

「Three days later」

Jiang Chen, with Angelina in tow, entered a border area. The Blood Moon Demon King arrived, carrying a sack, which he then opened.

Inside, a Corrupted Hero looked at Jiang Chen in shock.

Who am I? Where am I?

Jiang Chen asked, "Is this that Jeffrey?"

"Yes. My master instructed me to hand him over to you. I will return and report."

"Go on then!"

Angelina was full of questions. "What’s going on?"

"Your task is right before you. Kill him, and you’ll achieve your Third-stage Advancement."

Angelina was completely baffled.

What kind of tactic is this? Just tie him up and bring him here? Isn’t this too easy?

Without hesitation, Angelina made her move. She extended her Kouji [Nine-Tailed] and killed Jeffrey. Jeffrey died at Angelina’s hand, completely oblivious to what was happening.

At the same time, Angelina received a notification.

Task complete.

Angelina said excitedly, "Jiang Chen, I’ve activated a new Skill!"

"What Skill?"

"Divine Sacrifice! It allows me to sacrifice enemies and attack them proactively. Now I have an offensive Skill too and won’t have to rely solely on the strength of my Kouji [Nine-Tailed] anymore."

Divine Sacrifice? Jiang Chen thought. I’ve never heard of that. Is it a Priest Skill? Or a Skill awakened from Angelina’s God’s Seal?

[Divine Sacrifice: When this Skill is cast, enemies are sacrificed, ignoring all defenses. The effect is determined by the user’s spiritual power.]

It was a straightforward Skill.

But it was Angelina’s active Skill, and her only one with offensive power.

As for its effects, Angelina deliberately tested it. She cast a beam of Divine Sacrifice at a Demon not far off. With a flash of golden light, the Demon was completely obliterated, sacrificed leaving neither flesh nor bone behind.

Wow... this Divine Sacrifice Skill is pretty incredible; it doesn’t even leave bones behind, Jiang Chen mused.

BEEP! BEEP! BEEP...

The Rune chimed.

Ba Jie: You there?

It was a message from the tavern owner.

Jiang Chen: What’s up?

Ba Jie: Lately, a Potion has been circulating within the Heavenly Earth Association that can clear the Curse God’s curse. Word is it was concocted on the Continent of All-Gods. Can you get your hands on it?

Jiang Chen laughed. "Buddy, you’ve asked the right person. That’s the Potion I gave the Heavenly Earth Association."

Ba Jie: Your Potion? Do you have any more?

Jiang Chen: Yes.

Ba Jie: Sell it to me.

Jiang Chen: Where are you? I’ll give you a few bottles.

Ba Jie: Old place.

Jiang Chen: Alright.

Jiang Chen smiled and said to Angelina, "Come on, I’ll introduce you to a friend."

"What friend?"

"A Wanderer."

「In the small town」

To avoid revealing their identities, Jiang Chen and Angelina wore masks when they met Ba Jie. He was still dressed in a black robe and wielded a thin sword—the typical appearance of a Wanderer.

Ba Jie laughed. "My senior brother personally went to the Heavenly Earth Association to ask, but they refused to give it to him. I had no choice but to ask you to find out about this Potion. I never expected you were the one who came up with it."

"It wasn’t entirely my doing, but rather the masterpiece of a friend. It can lift the Curse God’s curse and remove the mark on the forehead."

Ba Jie nodded; he knew about this. Many Heavenly Earth Association members had already left their own worlds and were now living in a mini-world with humans.

Without the ’slave’ character on their foreheads, they looked no different from ordinary people.

The reason Wanderers couldn’t blend into the world was the mark on their foreheads. This mark was a curse from the Curse God, passed down through generations, and could only be removed by reaching a very high Realm.

The Curse God’s curse was incredibly powerful; only a Seventh-stage Expert had the ability to remove it.

Of course, there was another possibility: aligning with the Continent of All-Gods. If they became part of a Clan and gained the Continent’s recognition, the mark could also be removed.

As for ordinary people, there was no hope at all.

Jiang Chen took out the Potion and handed it to Ba Jie. "I’ve been caught up in a lot lately and couldn’t get this to you sooner. Now’s a good time."

"Thank you. On behalf of the Loyal Justice Association, I thank you."

"We’re friends. Now and always."

Noticing the scars on Ba Jie’s face, Jiang Chen couldn’t help but ask, "What happened to your face?"

"Last time, I was leading them in a retreat when we were intercepted by people from the Difiled Camp. Many died, and I was injured then."

Ba Jie continued, "There’s a hidden place where we live, at the border between the Difiled Camp and the Continent of All-Gods. Now that we have these Potions, I’m planning to take them to live in human society, to enjoy the prosperity of the Human World."

Jiang Chen was puzzled. "I thought you all were going to a mini-world?"

"We went, and then we came back. It’s freezing cold there, completely unsuitable for living, so we decided to return."

"So where are you planning to go now?"

"Tattens Hills Village."

"Back to where you started, to be the tavern owner again?"

Ba Jie nodded silently.

Jiang Chen still remembered drinking with Ba Jie in Tattens Hills Village. Ba Jie was the tavern owner then, but at that time, Jiang Chen had no idea Ba Jie was a Wanderer.

He only knew Ba Jie as a Swordsman.

Ba Jie said, "I need to return to that world and bring them over to live in the Human World, to experience its splendor."

"I’ll go with you."

"Good. I’ll show you the world of the Wanderers. It’s bitterly cold—truly no place for humans to stay."

Jiang Chen and Angelina followed Ba Jie.

Jiang Chen asked, "Where’s your master?"

"I don’t know; we rarely contact each other. But we all have Runes, so we get in touch if something happens. Our master is often away, so it’s usually my senior brother who handles things."

"What’s your senior brother’s position in the Loyal Justice Association?"

"Vice Chairman."

"Is Bai Yun the Chairman?"

"No, Bai Yun is just a teacher. He’s not a member of the Loyal Justice Association."

Jiang Chen asked, full of doubt, "Bai Yun isn’t part of the Loyal Justice Association?"

Ba Jie nodded. "He used to be, but not anymore."

"Why?"

"I probably shouldn’t talk about it, as I’m not entirely clear on the details myself. It seems our master was traveling the Continent of All-Gods when he fell in love with a woman from there. Ultimately, he was expelled, but he is still my master."

Jiang Chen smiled. So, he’s a romantic! he realized.

Suddenly, it all made sense.

No wonder Li Xiaoyao also emerged and fell for a woman from the Continent of All-Gods. Why do all these experts fancy women from other factions? Are there no women left in the Wanderers’ Mini World? I guess the women among the Wanderers are more conservative. They’re not like the women on the Continent of All-Gods, who are so formidable and proficient in every kind of martial art. Yeah, that seems to be it. Men are all the same, after all.

Jiang Chen chuckled.
