"Enough praise has been collected to learn the Piercing Spear Technique."

"Do you want to learn it?"

"Yes!" Wu Xiaode said to himself.

In the next moment,

Combat scenes began to float in his mind.

"Since you have accumulated a lot of praise, this practice will directly bring your spear technique to a level of mastery."

"Piercing Spear Technique."

"Three consecutive moves."

"You have mastered the first move: Block;"

"This move will definitely block the enemy's attack."

"You have mastered the second move: Thrust;"

"An aerial move, the target will definitely lose control and float in the air."

"You have mastered the third move: Rain."

"Thirty-six consecutive strikes, an unstoppable force."

What a great technique!

Wu Xiaode praised, got up, and walked to the edge of the training ground, picking up a long spear from the weapon rack.

"Old Qian, watch carefully, these three moves are like this."

He performed the three moves effortlessly without using any soul power.

Qian Mingkui was stunned.

Wu Xiaode was about to show off again when he saw the Book of the Dead fly over, open in front of him, and display a line of small characters:

"Special Reminder:"

"Sacrificing five skills can upgrade the 'Illusion' ability of the Silent Mist by one level;"

"Sacrificing ten skills can upgrade the 'Dirty Hands' ability of the Silent Mist by one level."

Wu Xiaode fell into deep thought.

In theory, having more skills is always beneficial.

He also hoped to learn many skills to deal with various situations.

However, in actual combat, what truly surprised everyone was the ability of the Book of the Dead.

Even the Grim Reaper coveted the Book of the Dead!

Even the angel couldn't detect him through the Silent Mist!

Therefore, in the face of the skills of the Realm of Death, everything else could be abandoned.

"Alright, you can slowly understand the rest on your own."

Wu Xiaode smiled and put the spear back on the weapon rack.

"Sacrifice."

He said to himself.

The Book of the Dead immediately displayed a line of icy characters:

"You have sacrificed the three moves of the Piercing Spear Technique to the 'Illusion' ability of the Silent Mist."

"Since these three moves are quite powerful, they can be counted as five ordinary Awakened skills."

"Your Silent Mist can now be upgraded."

"Current ability: Illusion."

"Upgraded to: Mist Shadow."

"Mist Shadow: Has a higher concealment ability than Illusion, and can briefly turn your body into mist for 3 seconds, with a cooldown of one hour."

The three moves of the spear technique counted as five skills.

This was to be expected, after all, Zhao Zhibing's Multi-Arrow was also overcounted.

Now 'Illusion' has been upgraded to 'Mist Shadow'!

This was a very timely upgrade, especially since the situation tonight would be worse.

If he could get more skills to upgrade 'Dirty Hands' by one level, that would be great.

But that would require ten skills!

Where could he get so many skills?

Wu Xiaode's gaze swept over Qian Mingkui, Zhao Junyu, Lu Renyi, and Xiao Shi.

He couldn't help but sigh.

—Forget it, I'll find someone else.

"Elder Wu, speaking of that film company, did you join it too?" Qian Mingkui asked.

"Ah, yes, when something unusual happens, we need to deal with it, and if it gets out of hand, we'll just claim we're filming a movie," Wu Xiaode said casually.

"Can you really keep it a secret?" Qian Mingkui asked worriedly.

Zhao Junyu smiled and said, "Xiao Wu's first live stream was fighting a mechanical suit, and the only witnesses were a group of beggars, who were all killed by someone else, so there was no problem."

"The second one was a bone dragon—bone dragons are also mechanical creations, and I took the key component from it, so no matter who looks, it's just a mechanical flying machine," Wu Xiaode said.

"What if a real monster appears and is seen by ordinary people?" Qian Mingkui asked.

"We really have monster modelers and many powerful special effects to support us, and we've already released some to create a convincing illusion," Zhao Junyu said.

"How long can we keep it a secret?" Wu Xiaode asked.

"As soon as there's a large-scale monster invasion, it won't be possible to keep it a secret—probably soon," Zhao Junyu said.

"What about the Skeleton Island overseas?"

"It has temporarily disappeared, we don't know where it went."

Zhao Junyu sighed again, "This year's harvest hasn't been collected yet, and if chaos breaks out, it's really worrying."

Everyone fell silent.

Qian Mingkui had seen a city overwhelmed by venomous snakes and knew how desperate the future would be.

Food...

Not just food, but also weapons, medicine, soldiers, and fortifications—all these aspects needed time to prepare.

And all of this required social stability.

"Let's ensure one day of peace, and we'll ensure one day of peace," he sighed.

"Exactly," Zhao Junyu said.

At this moment, Wu Xiaode's phone in his pocket rang.

He opened it and saw a message from Zhao Zhibing:

"There is only one Li Kunlun in the country who is currently in high school, do you want to visit him?"

"Of course," Wu Xiaode replied.

Zhao Zhibing sent an address and added:

"Someone will pick you up soon, and I'll send a few more people to assist you, hurry up and get it done."

"Okay, thank you, Princess."

The chat ended.

Someone knocked on the door outside the martial arts hall.

Lu Renyi went to open it and saw several men in black walk in, saying:

"Mr. Wu Xiaode, your private plane has been arranged."

Wu Xiaode stood up and said, "Junyu, you discuss the details with him, I have something urgent to do."

"This is the first person to befriend a monster, what could be more important than this?" Zhao Junyu asked.

"It's also important," Wu Xiaode said with a smile.

In the parallel world, the underground facility on that island could no longer be visited.

After all, there was a winged angel guarding it.

So—

The only gain from the killed Li Kunlun was from there.

If Li Kunlun could awaken, he would first regain his memories.

This was a method he had reserved for himself.

He must know many things—

About the Sin Prison, and things beyond the Sin Prison!

...

At noon.

Dongjin City.

Second High School.

A car slowly drove through the campus.

"Target located, on the basketball court, playing basketball," the man in black driving the car said.

"Understood."

Wu Xiaode rolled down the window and looked at the basketball court.

It was lunchtime, and there weren't many people on the court, only a three-on-three game.

The teenager was among them.

—The Li Kunlun who was captured in the parallel world.

He was once a high-ranking human civilization emperor, defeated by the Star Spirit civilization and thrown into this world to live as an ordinary person with no memory.

In three years,

He would be captured and killed.

Wu Xiaode silently observed the teenager.

"Three-pointer, go in!" the teenager shouted loudly.

Swish!

The basketball went through the hoop.

"Ha ha ha, you guys look so sad, you could make money by begging on the street, but you insist on playing with me, you're still too young, folks." The teenager started trash-talking.

The other students angrily retorted.

The more they cursed, the more the teenager got into it, taking the ball and breaking through for a layup.

"How can you be so weak? I could beat you with my grandma."

The teenager taunted.

"Stop boasting, your grandma can't play basketball," another student countered.

"She could win you even if she was dancing in the square," the teenager said expressionlessly.

Wu Xiaode listened silently.

Damn.

This kid really knows how to stir things up.

I want to play against him.

It's just trash-talking, right?

Wanna try my dirty hands?

After some thought, Wu Xiaode made a decision.

Too many Awakened have died, and now only one in ten remains.

If a large-scale monster invasion occurs and there aren't enough Awakened to deal with it, the world will directly enter the apocalypse.

One more person means one more strength!

Not to mention, he knows a lot of information.

"Qian Mingkui was awakened by me, maybe he can bring me some surprises..."

Wu Xiaode muttered to himself, encouraging himself.

He said to the man in black beside him, "Clear the area."

"Okay." The man in black took out his phone and said softly, "Plan One, execute."

In the next second,

Many people's phones rang.

"Hello? Package?"

"Mom?"

"Grandpa?"

"Uncle, what's up?"

"Teacher, what? Class assembly? At noon?"

Everyone hurriedly left.

Only the teenager was left standing on the court, looking puzzled.

He shrugged and continued shooting.

Wu Xiaode got out of the car and walked to the basketball court, watching the teenager shoot a few times before calling out, "Hey, hello, can I join?"

As he spoke—

Swish!

Wu Xiaode disappeared from his spot.

The teenager hugged the basketball and stood there in shock.

"Gone..."

He muttered in disbelief.

On the other side.

The mirror world of the Death Dungeon.

Wu Xiaode found himself transformed into a man riding a warhorse.

"Ah! Damn, how did I say the incantation!"

He sighed, looking at the mountain of corpses deep in the dungeon.

His head ached.

A wave of unfamiliar memories and knowledge flooded his mind.

"Ah, I see..."

Last night in the parallel world, he had pondered something.

When he first appeared in the Death Dungeon, the giant seemed to know what everyone was thinking.

But later, when he slapped him, the giant didn't know.

Was the spell canceled?

Or did the spell's time run out?

Then, who could make the one-eyed giant use telepathy?

Didn't he think humans were mere ants?

Now,

The fairy armor had sent him to this battle.

Wu Xiaode reached out his hand.

A green spear suddenly appeared in the air and was gripped by him.

Yes.

He was a Holy Witch Hunter.

This profession came from a world filled with rainforests and savage creatures, and was the most skilled hunter in the world.

His spear was blessed by some extremely ancient spiritual objects, and when he threw it, there was a certain probability that it would explode with a curse, directly killing the target!

The stronger the target, the higher the probability.

It was because of this skill that the one-eyed giant used telepathy!

—Since he was here, he might as well play a game with the one-eyed giant.

After all, he was much stronger now!
