Purgatory Artist-Chapter 209: Eternal Night Walk (2 - in One)
Chapter 209 - Eternal Night Walk (2 Chapter in One)
On the dark mountain, three shadows were moving forward.
"We've already left the territory of the evil creatures, there's an unknown wasteland in front of us — — how much longer do we have to walk?" Libertas asked.
"If we keep walking along the border, it'll take about half a month to reach the snowy mountain." Andrea answered.
"Half a month? Outside of the human world? "Libertas asked.
He slowly stopped and looked at the other side of the mountain.
However, there was only the endless wilderness and mountains.
"We have to go to the snowy mountain, Hua Qingkong is waiting for us there." Liu Ping continued.
"Of course we have to — — but don't we have a way to protect ourselves?" Libertas asked.
"Don't you have a suggestion card?" Liu Ping asked.
Libertas clapped his hands and said, "The 12 hours are almost over.
"Twelve hours will be up soon. Let's find a place to rest. I can draw a suggestion card."
Liu Ping nodded: "Let's go, there's a leeward place over there, we can eat something and rest for a while."
The three of them went behind a large rock and sat down to rest.
Libertas prepared himself and drew something from the void of space.
A card instantly appeared in his hand.
He glanced at it, then showed it to Liu Ping and Andrea, saying:
"Take a look at this suggestion card."
There was a number written on the card: 15.
Next to the number 15 was an arrow that rose upwards, pointing straight at a black skull.
Under the picture was a line of small words:
|Don't exceed level 15, or else ...|
Or else what?
Andrea's gaze landed on the black skeleton as she guessed, "That skeleton should represent danger."
"I think it's death." Liu Ping said.
He exchanged a knowing glance with Andrea.
"Don't show yourself for now." Liu Ping said.
"Alright"
Andrea nodded, turned into a card, and was put away by Liu Ping.
"Wait! Without her by our side, what if we encounter a monster and get eaten? "Libertas said hurriedly.
Liu Ping patted his shoulder and said, "Your suggestion card is similar to a type of mystical divination. In the Evernight, we should listen to its advice."
Libertas said helplessly, "Well, as a professionist who has not even reached Level 10 ... I think we are going to die soon."
Just as Liu Ping was about to speak, he suddenly saw lines of burning words appear in the void.
[This Sequence has been awakened.]
[Since the various functions of this operation interface are temporarily unable to be released, I will first complete the relevant content of the previous battle for you.]
[You discovered the secret of The Fool's Sequence]
[You've seen The Fool's core deck]
[You saw the prisoner]
[You saw the stagnation of time and space with your own eyes.]
[— In summary, your Role Points have increased by 4 points, reaching 10/10]
[Your Role is done.]
[Your Acting Ability: Fishmonger is about to evolve.]
[Considering that you once rejected the acting path of a 'popular actor', your brand-new acting ability has gone in another direction.]
[Given the completion of this Sequence's super evolution, the abilities you will obtain have been greatly improved.]
[Congratulations.]
[You have lost the Acting Ability: Fishmonger.]
[You have obtained the advanced version of the Acting Ability: Upstaging.]
[Description: When you say 'Stop! Listen to me!' This ability will immediately activate. After that, you will have to say any lines continuously, and the target you have identified will subconsciously listen and will not do anything else until you attack them, or until you stop talking for a long time.]
[— If a person is determined to steal the show, you will not be able to get a word in.]
Liu Ping quickly finished reading and suddenly felt more confident in his heart.
But —
"Heroic Spirit UI, didn't you complete the super evolution? Why can't the various abilities be released for the time being? "
Liu Ping asked silently.
A line of burning words appeared:
[After the super evolution, this UI has obtained too many functions, and these functions are not necessarily suitable for the Purgatory and Eternal Night world systems.]
[Therefore, this UI is temporarily unable to select and fix any function.]
Liu Ping was speechless.
— It can be like this?
Well, let the Sequence slowly choose.
Fifteen minutes later.
Liu Ping and Libertas set off again, running forward.
They stuck close to the blue frost that connected the sky and kept a distance of five meters away from it, running for about five hours.
Libertas suddenly took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
Liu Ping looked and saw that he was sweating profusely, as if his entire body was soaked.
"What's wrong with you?" Liu Ping asked curiously.
"I can't help it, as long as I sense something extremely dangerous, I will break out in cold sweat. The more dangerous it is, the more I sweat." Libertas said.
"You don't have to be an Assassin, you can be a Prophet Professionist." Liu Ping suggested.
Libertas said: "Liu Ping, are we really the only ones who escaped with Hua Qingkong?"
"That should be the case, after all, normally no one would cross the border and enter Eternal Night, unless they want to die." Liu Ping said.
"... In other words, we are in danger right now." Libertas said.
"Yes, so we can only stick close to the border; we can't go too deep into the unknown." Liu Ping said.
A second later.
The two of them were startled and stopped where they were.
They saw a woman appear on the hill in front of them.
It was a very tall woman, she was taller than Liu Ping and Libertas, about 1.9 meters.
She carried a basket full of fruits of different colors.
"Did she sneak out to pick fruits? Poor thing, she probably only has this basket of fruits left. "
While sighing, Libertas winked at Liu Ping with a tense expression.
Liu Ping looked in the direction of Libertas's gaze.
Two long, snow-white leg bones were exposed under the woman's skirt.
A line of words floated above her head:
[?????]
Liu Ping's heart tightened.
She was definitely not human.
But what was she?
At this moment, the woman raised her head and looked at the two of them.
"Two young sprouts ... Why are you here? Are you lost? "The woman smiled and greeted the two of them.
Libertas was about to pull out his dagger but was stopped by Liu Ping.
Liu Ping shouted: "Stop! Listen to me! "
In an instant, a line of burning words quickly appeared: [You have activated the acting ability: 'Upstaging'.]
[Please begin your performance, or this ability will disappear.]
Liu Ping cleared his throat and said, "My friend and I are indeed lost. We originally came from the frozen human kingdom, but because it was too dark, we took the wrong path and accidentally came here."
The woman was in a trance and listened attentively.
Liu Ping pulled Libertas forward and continued to say, "Don't worry. My friend and I have been discussing a problem along the way, which came first, the chicken or the egg."
"Which came first, the chicken or the egg?"
"Now, please follow us to study this problem. It is not only a philosophical problem, but also an ethical and biological problem. Also, the egg will fall from the sky and break because of gravity. It contains the formula of physics."
"We know that there are many interactions between various objects in nature ..."
As Liu Ping spoke, he led Libertas away from the woman and walked towards the rugged path ahead.
"The gravitational force on an object is closely related to its mass ..."
"Of course, speaking of force, we should also talk in depth about what interaction is ..."
The woman stood in place, hugging her basket and listening silently.
Libertas looked at the woman, then at Liu Ping, and said in realization, "This is one of your abilities?"
Liu Ping nodded and said, "Next, let's talk about gravity. This is a technological concept. What exactly is it?"
"The so-called gravitational force ..."
Without needing Liu Ping's help, Libertas also sped up.
The two of them quickly ran, leaving the woman far behind.
They didn't dare to stop and kept running.
Half an hour later.
Libertas looked behind him.
He couldn't see anything.
He told Liu Ping: "It's done, we've probably lost that monster."
Liu Ping glanced at the void of space.
A line of burning text appeared in the air:
[Your target is listening]
— — She's still listening!
She's so far away, but she's still listening!?
"So, this is related to the relationship between a hen and a rooster. In fact, I once received help from a hen during a battle, it gave me ..."
While saying that, Liu Ping pointed at Libertas' forehead.
Libertas reached out and touched it.
His forehead was covered in sweat!
His expression changed slightly as he understood what Liu Ping meant.
The danger hasn't passed yet.
The two of them exchanged glances, feeling a bit helpless.
This can't go on.
Is there really no way to get rid of that monster?
While Liu Ping was spouting nonsense, he silently said in his mind:
"Heroic Spirit UI, give me that function first — — secondary Heroic Spirit Summoning's upgraded version, I really need manpower here."
In the void of space, another line of burning text quickly appeared:
[Attention!]
[The problem with Heroic Spirit Summoning is: The Heroic Spirits summoned by this UI don't have the mystical power of Purgatory or Eternal Night]
[This UI can provide you with a trial version, if you find anything wrong with it, you can change it at any time]
— — This is great!
If I don't like it, I can change it!
Liu Ping happily said:
"Alright, let's not talk about anything else first, give me this function first!"
A small frame instantly appeared in the void of space, there was a flag drawn on it, and a line of words below:
[Advanced Heroic Spirit Summoning (trial version)]
Liu Ping stood up, reached his hand into the void of space, and grabbed a war flag.
"Heroic Spirit Summoning!"
He shouted in a low voice.
Bam — —
White smoke came out from behind the war flag.
A man wearing a full set of armor emerged from behind the battle flag.
A line of words appeared above his head:
[Level 100 Warrior, Battle-Saint]
The man smiled. "What's the situation? You actually need me to participate in the battle?"
Liu Ping looked at the other party and felt the powerful tide of power from him. Suddenly, he thought of something.
Libertas' suggestion card required players to not exceed level 15.
However.
But this was a Level 100 Battle-Saint!
Libertas looked at the man, then at Liu Ping, and said in surprise, "Where did you find this big brother?"
"Summon." Liu Ping said.
Libertas touched his chest and heaved a sigh of relief. "This is good. He's just standing here, but the aura he emits is enough to blow me away. With such strength, he definitely won't be afraid of that monster."
Hearing this, the man smiled and said, "Leave it to me."
"Then what about us?" Liu Ping asked.
"Let's go. Just follow me." the man said.
Liu Ping shut his mouth.
The next moment.
The prompt appeared again.
[Your skill, 'Upstaging', has been canceled.]
The Level 100 Battle-Saint who had been walking at the front suddenly stopped.
"There's someone up ahead."
He said.
Liu Ping and Libertas looked forward together. They saw the tall woman suddenly appear in the middle of the road ahead with a basket in her hand.
"A ripe fruit ..."
She looked at the Battle-Saint and whispered.
Libertas shouted, "It's her. She's a monster."
The Battle-Saint pulled out his weapon and smiled. "No matter what it is, don't worry."
Before he could finish his sentence, something strange happened.
Liu Ping and Libertas didn't even see what happened. The woman was already standing behind the Battle-Saint and gently pressing her hand on his shoulder.
Pa!
The Battle-Saint turned into a red fruit and was held in the woman's hand.
The woman picked up the fruit and sniffed it. She opened her mouth and took a bite.
The fruit let out a pitiful cry.
"What a fragrant and sweet fruit."
The woman chewed. Blood dripped from the corner of her mouth and into the basket.
The other fruits in the basket let out a low cry.
She looked at Liu Ping and Libertas and shook her head. "You guys are too young. It's not interesting to eat, but I can —
The next moment —
Liu Ping shouted, "Stop! Listen to me! "
"We all know that there are all kinds of people in the world. There are men, women, the elderly, and children. Humans are a race that likes to be greedy for happiness ..."
He tugged at Libertas's arm.
— — A level 100 Battle-Saint!
Liu Ping roared in his mind.
This kind of strength, according to the cultivation system, was already at an unknown level.
But with a gentle touch from the woman, the Battle-Saint turned into a fruit that was at her mercy.
Libertas' face was pale. He couldn't believe what he was seeing. But with Liu Ping pulling him hard, he finally woke up from his dream.

"Let's go!"
He followed Liu Ping. The two of them ran.
The two of them went around the woman and ran forward.
"We like to eat all kinds of food. Eating can bring us joy ..."
Liu Ping continued and turned to look at the woman.
The woman's mouth was full of blood. She was holding a half-bitten blood-colored fruit in her hand. She was listening attentively.
— — looks like no matter what, the Mystic ability "Upstaging" is effective on her!
Only the Mystic can deal with the Mystic?
While thinking, Liu Ping said:
"Other than food, there are other things that can bring people joy. For example, exercise. My personal favorite exercise is ..."
He didn't stop talking, and neither did his feet stop walking.
He and Libertas quickly left the woman behind and gradually disappeared from their sight.
This time, the two of them didn't stop.
They kept running for two days and two nights.
Finally — —
In the void of space in front of Liu Ping, a new prompt quietly appeared:
[Because the distance is too far, your target can no longer hear what you are saying]
Liu Ping glanced at it and continued speaking:
"Humans are a multi-talented life form ..."
The next moment.
Another line of burning text appeared:
[Your target has entered the range where it can listen to what you are saying]
— — It's catching up!
Fortunately, Liu Ping didn't stop at all. So it stood still and continued to listen.
More lines of burning text appeared:
[You are too far away from the target. It can no longer hear what you are saying]
[Your target has entered the range where it can listen to what you are saying]
[You are too far away from the target. It can no longer hear what you are saying]
[Your target has entered the range where it can listen to what you are saying]
[...]
Libertas glanced at Liu Ping.
Liu Ping kept talking. He picked up a tree branch and wrote on the ground:
"It's chasing us."
Another day passed.
Liu Ping's voice was already hoarse.
Finally.
The repeated prompts disappeared.
After three days and two nights, the heroic spirit's UI finally became clean.
— — The monster has given up on its pursuit.
(TN: damn!)
