Chapter 335: Murder and Arson

Jiang Yan directly put his idea into practice, and installed the software that belonged to the Night Raven to the little slime that had devoured the Night Raven.

"Wild Intuition" is a software that increases the vigilance of danger, which is more mysterious and not very effective to experiment, but "Airflow Perception", "Primary Airflow Manipulation" and "Night Affinity" can be tried directly.

Not to mention the first two, Jiang Yan can see the effect of "night affinity" at a glance, because the time at this moment is the night.

The little slime who has obtained the "Night Affinity" ability is obviously a little more energetic in this environment than before, and even the activity and recovery speed of the spiritual power in the body have increased by a few points.

Then there was the air flow control, under the command of Jiang Yan, the little slime directly activated the ability, and gathered a fist-sized translucent high-speed rotating air mass above his head, and a slightly harsh air friction sound came out of the air mass, as if there were many blades scraping back and forth on the wooden board.

Through the detection of the ability, there was no need to actually attack, Jiang Yan easily figured out the power of this air mass, after all, it was not a too advanced move.

After comparing it with the power displayed by the air bomb used by the night crow before, Jiang Yan found that there was almost no difference between the two.

In other words, there is no deterioration in ability!

Jiang Yan, who came to this conclusion, finally put his mind at ease.

Without the help of his abilities, the little slime could have combined the strengths of many elves through the abilities of "Devourer" and "Mimic", and there are a lot of possibilities. However, due to the effect of 'deterioration', all the abilities it absorbed that originally belonged to other elves will be greatly weakened, and the final result is that it will grow into a special slime that 'can cast many abilities, but they are all mixed but not refined, and each ability is not strong'.

It is better to be as specialized than to be as proficient in everything, because in this way there is more hope of reaching a higher realm, which is a truth that almost every transcendent cultivator understands. In the same way, the small slime with diverse abilities but each of them can only use a deteriorated version may be able to become quite powerful, but it is still nothing compared to other high-level elves, and its potential is limited after all.

And now, since Jiang Yan's ability can prevent the little slime from deteriorating the absorbed ability, there is no need to worry about this problem.

It is often said that miscellaneous studies are not as good as specialization, and the main purpose of this is to warn practitioners not to waste their limited energy on unnecessary places. But for Jiang Yan's ability, there is no such annoyance - because he directly copies the results of other people's efforts to himself, and he does not need to pay anything other than some consumption when casting the ability, so there is no such thing as 'distraction'.

After testing the new abilities of the little slime, Jiang Yan began to deal with the finishing work of this mission.

First of all, another contract elf wolfhound carried by Hyde's guards also followed in the footsteps of the Night Raven and was devoured by the little slime in a coma.

This wolf dog elf only has a software called "olfactory enhancement", and the benefits contributed to the little slime are much worse than those of the night crow, but it is better than nothing, at least it has also increased the little slime's spiritual power a lot.

Then, the remaining three humans who were still alive, Jiang Yan did not lose his illness and directly let the little slime devour them, but he didn't intend to keep them.

The three poisonous needles went down, and the three of them followed in Hyde's footsteps, and died unconscious in their sleep.

When he did these things, Jiang Yan's heart did not show any unbearable color at all.

Perhaps in the eyes of the world, although these three people close to Hyde cannot be said to be good, they are not guilty of death, but that has nothing to do with Jiang Yan, and he himself has never called himself a good person.

If it was inconsequential, Jiang Yan didn't mind showing kindness, but if it involved himself, he would definitely be ruthless. In those major battles in the Canglan Domain, the number of human beings who died directly or indirectly because of Jiang Yan has definitely exceeded tens of thousands, and he will not have the heart to bear it at that time, let alone regret it, let alone at this time.

As the saying goes, Ci is not in charge of the army, as the master of the big force that single-handedly created the Red Jade Mansion and dominated the world of the Canglan Domain, Jiang Yan's current mentality is no longer as pure as when he first crossed over.

This change in mentality is naturally cultivated after being in a high position and holding a huge amount of power, and mastering extraordinary powers, as well as the influence of one's own ability characteristics unconsciously.

Insects, beasts, beasts, or humans...... At the beginning, Jiang Yan abused the ability "data intrusion" to forcibly subdue other creatures, so that thousands of various creatures became his children, and their thinking, emotions, beliefs, life values and other aspects unconsciously infected Jiang Yan's own mind.

This is the inevitable result of the necessary step of "data invasion", "soul analysis", and before Jiang Yan was aware of this, the transformation of his mind due to the side effects of this ability had already become a given and irreversible.

It was discovered early, except for becoming a little cold-blooded, Jiang Yan's own heart did not have other negative changes, even if it was cold-blooded, it was not a disadvantage in his current status, but it could become a good change.

Therefore, the death of the three strangers in front of him could not cause any waves in Jiang Yan's heart, he just chose to kill them out of the concealment of the task.

It must be known that even if the spiritual power of ordinary humans is not comparable to that of elves, their innate 'life spiritual power' can more or less allow the little slime to gain a little strengthening...... Jiang Yan didn't frantically let his contract elves do such a thing as cannibalism, which already showed that he still rarely had a little basic human conscience.

After extinguishing the mouth, the next step is to eliminate the traces of the crime, although Jiang Yan is confident that he has not left any hand tail, but for the sake of safety, he still directly set a fire and set the house on fire along with the corpses inside.

Well, by the way, he also looted all the money in the house, pretending to be a burglar who broke into the house and then killed and set it on fire.

I have to say that Hyde, as a member of the Rodlin family, still has a lot of oil and water on his body, Jiang Yan directly found dozens of gold coins in his clothes pocket, and then easily found the safe that his mistress had quietly hidden, and after violently dismantling it, he looted more than a dozen gold coins inside.

Jiang Yan's ability is really very useful when it comes to finding things that are hidden, adjusting the data detection wave to a high penetration frequency to radiate it, whether you hide the safe in a very secret dark compartment or a few meters deep underground, he can easily scan it.

It's easier to disassemble the safe, and a few clumps of corrosive liquid spray down the little slime, and ordinary locks can't stop them even if they're made of pure steel. As for the high-end locks that use the Psychic Channel's technology, I can't afford to use that kind of high-end goods for the price of Mistress Hyde.

At this moment, Jiang Yan's worth was directly enriched, and he gained a total of more than fifty gold coins and a number of silver coins, which was equivalent to the value of five thousand silver coins. It must be known that the monthly income of a commoner family at the bottom of the empire is about ten silver coins, and even a middle-class family's monthly income is only one gold coin at most.

It shows that Jiang Yan has gained a lot this time!

In fact, in addition to hard goods such as coins, Jiang Yan also scavenged out some gold cards of the Imperial Bank, which were equivalent to the bank magnetic cards in his previous life, but Jiang Yan didn't touch this thing.

Like the earth in Jiang Yan's previous life, this kind of gold card is basically bound to the cardholder, and if he has registration information, even if he gets it, he can't use it, but he will expose himself, so he simply gives up.

Standing on the corner of the street outside Hyde's mistress's house, Jiang Yan silently looked at the house in the distance that was gradually rising with fire and smoke, and after confirming the result with an ability scan, he turned around and left without hesitation.

Attracted by the movement, the onlookers gathered and pointed to the burning houses and talked about it, but no one noticed that an inconspicuous child quietly walked by.

Jiang Yan's thin figure blended into the shadows cast by the buildings on both sides of the street, and the entire figure gradually faded into the air, without a trace.

......

Half an hour later, the Nightingale Bar.

In the middle of the night, the bar's foyer was open to welcome customers, and seven or eight men and women were sitting in the middle of the table sipping cheap drinks.

After Jiang Yan took a look, he didn't go to the main entrance, but walked in a circle through a hidden back door of the bar and came to a reception room.

"Welcome back, newcomer!" On the couch, Mande raised his glass to him and smiled and congratulated, "Would you like to have a celebratory drink?"

"Uncle, is it really good for you to encourage a child under the age of ten to drink?" Jiang Yan rolled his eyes directly, walked to the drink cabinet on the side, unceremoniously took out a bottle of juice and sat down on the table, unscrewed the bottle and enjoyed.

"Mi-" The little slime came out in a burst of spiritual light, landed on Jiang Yan's shoulder, and mimicked two big black pearl-like eyes watching Jiang Yan's movements curiously.

Mande protested dissatisfiedly: "Tsk, uncle...... I'm not yet forty years old, bastard!"

"I'm almost thirty years older than me, what is my uncle's name?"

"......" Mande looked at Jiang Yan's really too young appearance and couldn't speak.

Jiang Yan snorted and changed the topic directly: "It seems that you have confirmed the results of my mission this time? ”

"Of course, to do our kind of work, intelligence is the most important thing. Then again, I can't see it, newcomer, he is so ruthless at a young age, killing people is not counted, and setting fire, tsk......" After Mande teased, seeing that Jiang Yan was completely unmoved, he just squinted and drank the juice in small sips, then shrugged his shoulders, and then said: "Newcomer, are you still making extra money?"

Jiang Yan removed the half-drunk juice in his hand and approached the little slime, who immediately bit the bottle happily, conjured two small hands to grab the bottle, and drank it like Jiang Yan, his big black eyes narrowed into crescents of joy, and he looked very happy.

"Yes, this one tastes pretty good! Xiaobai, remember this taste, next time you can try to make some for me." ”

After pinching the little slime, Jiang Yan looked at Hyde and asked with a light smile, "Oh, is the team still caring about this?"

"No, that's your freedom, according to the rules, as long as you can make sure that nothing goes wrong, it's fine, I'm just checking it here. Mander shrugged and asked, "You haven't touched anything other than physical cash, have you?"

"Don't worry, I'm not greedy enough to be stupid. ”

"That's good. I won't ask you how much you've gained, anyway, I don't plan to hand it over judging by the way you kid look. Mande nodded, said with some regret, and then took out two gold coins and put them on the table: "Well, this is the reward for this mission issued by the team." ”

...... It's really rare.

Jiang Yan, who had just reaped a windfall of dozens of times the amount of this bonus, only had this feeling in his heart, but he still unceremoniously put the gold coins on the table into his pocket.

Listening to the faint sound of gold coins colliding on Jiang Yan's body, the regret on Hyde's face became heavier. Based on experience alone, he knew that it was definitely not a small amount, but unfortunately, since Jiang Yan obtained it alone, according to the established rules of their industry, he couldn't say anything more.

If he was replaced by another newcomer, Mande could have taken out the posture of his predecessors to scavenge a layer, but he had already clearly realized the difficulty of this little ghost after meeting Jiang Yan once, and he couldn't treat him as a normal child at all.

Judging from the intelligence information obtained from the investigation, this little ghost can be said to have completed this mission quite perfectly, killing with one blow without leaving any traces, and from the time he saw Jiang Yan leave to the time he received the signal that the mission was completed, the time in between was less than ten minutes! With such efficiency, even if he took action in person, he might not be able to do it!

Not to mention this little ghost himself, even the white slime should not be underestimated, the future achievements of this team are definitely not small, and he Mande will not be bad with this kind of talent for a little windfall.

Mande, who was feeling the strength of the newcomer this time, heard Jiang Yan say loudly: "Since there is no problem, let's talk about business." Uncle, I want to get out of the novice period and take on tasks independently in the future. ”

"Uh...... Are you serious?" Mander asked in surprise.

"Of course. Jiang Yan nodded firmly: "In terms of ability, I think I am competent enough." As far as I know, the training period of newcomers, the seniors of the partner have the authority to end early, right?"

"That's so, but it's too fast...... Mande muttered for a moment, and said, "Little ghost, if you don't have the ability to do the task on your own after I agree, I'll have a hard time on my side." ”

In their industry, although it is not without special circumstances, generally speaking, even if the fastest training time for newcomers, they have to 'graduate' after ten tasks.

"Uncle, I don't think that's a problem, is it?" Jiang Yan said with a smile, and at the same time, he took out twenty gold coins in his hand, put them on the table and sent them to Mande.

The implication is obvious.

“...... All right. Mande's embarrassed face suddenly smiled, and he put away the gold coins without a trace: "Next, I will select the right four tasks for you, and I will not interfere too much in the actual process of the task, including the early intelligence gathering, so if you can complete it perfectly like this time, then I agree, how about it?"

Jiang Yan replied with the same smile: "Deal." ”
