"Boss Ma! I am back! ”

Irin returned to the hot pot dog shop as usual.

Emperor Wang showed a smile like licking a dog, and subconsciously pounced on Yi Rin.

"Sit down!"

Yi Rin glared at Emperor Wang Tian and hurriedly drank it.

Only then did Emperor Wang Tian react, he couldn't show his dog's legs, so he hummed aggrievedly and sat down obediently.

Irin was so frightened that she wiped the cold sweat from her forehead.

If this stupid dog really didn't hold back his emotions, he couldn't resist it if one flew over.

It was too embarrassing to expose a small matter in front of Boss Ma, and to be pounced by a dog a few meters away.

When Irin returned from shopping, it was past the peak time for dining.

Master Ma was idle again.

He squinted his eyes and looked Yi Rin up and down, and saw that Yi Rin was wearing a brand new outfit, and he looked envious: "Your equipment is not cheap, is it?" ”

"Average."

Irin, modestly.

"If you are absent from work for one day without reason, you will be deducted 1,000 wages."

Master Ma suddenly grinned, and his yellow teeth were dazzlingly yellow.

“……”

It's outrageous.

Master Ma explained: "Aren't you pocket money? Anyway, there is money at the end of the month, so you can successfully inherit the inheritance, what are you anxious about? ”

Am I in a hurry?

I just don't like it.

……

When Irin, when he came out of the fitting room, he didn't look too unusual.

Coupled with this trial, the strength and agility attributes have not increased much, and they are still within Rin's adaptation range. Between gaits and movements, there is not much eccentricity.

If the attribute value skyrockets in a short period of time, and the body has not yet adapted, it will definitely not be able to move freely for a while.

Irin diligently wipes tables, cleans floors, and washes dishes.

Master Ma sat at the counter the whole time, looking at today's turnover, and smiled.

But Yi Rin knew very well that Master Ma's gaze fell on his back from time to time, and there was another deep meaning.

"He doubted."

"But there's no evidence."

"The temperament is smooth, but the nature is not bad, and it is observable."

In the dead of night.

Irin hid in the small attic room, took out the list, and after thinking for a moment, crossed a tick behind Master Ma's name.

And somewhere.

Master Ma, who was snorting, suddenly shivered.

He always felt that not long ago, he had passed by some dangerous existence.

Irin put the list away.

Close your eyes.

In the darkness, his face was full of shadows.

If an outsider saw Irin hiding in the darkness at this time, his cold expression might be scared out of his mind.

Long.

Irin let out a long sigh of relief.

"Master Ma, I've almost observed it."

"Hopefully it won't be an enemy in the future."

"It shouldn't be a bad thing to have a guy who is good at gathering intelligence and saving his life."

"Time is running out."

"It's almost time to go."

"Besides, for this kind of person whose interests are paramount, there is only a thin line between friend and foe."

Irin made a quick decision.

When he was free, Irin's got to sort out the harvest after "Greentown".

For the evaluation of the final clearance of the trial, there is only only an "A" grade, although Irin is a little dissatisfied, but there is nothing to be done.

Although the main quest is to "kill Grimm", he also successfully killed all the "Grimm" in the multiple dreams. But if you look into it, he just barely escaped from multiple dreams, and he didn't really break the strange phenomenon of that town.

He didn't get to the root of that "dream phenomenon" at all.

"Not surprising. The difficulty of the third-order trial is far from being comparable to the trial before Lv20. ”

"There are more ways to clear the customs, either to reduce ten meetings with one force, or to clear the customs through various clues."

"If you want to get an evaluation of S grade or above, at the very least, you have to meet the real 'Green' face to face."

"If I'm not mistaken, from beginning to end, we were still in the dream of 'it' and didn't really escape."

"There is only a thin line between truth and falsehood, illusion and reality, but it cannot be reached."

Irin sighed.

But after returning to the bus, even if Irin suspects that he is still in a dream, he no longer has the courage to stab himself.

Moreover, Ta also made a judgment, judging that his way can be regarded as completing the main quest.

The bus driver, one of the "Greens", finally said that to Yi Rin and Xing Fei.

- "Goodbye, outsider. ”

Irin sounded like he was saying goodbye.

But if you think about it carefully, the tone is like saying-

"Until next time."

Calypso in the Caribbean.

That terrifying finger in Styx Junior High School.

The existence of multiple layers of dreams has been created in Grimmtown.

Why do I always encounter these weird things in the last few trials?

Is it because the strength was too poor to touch before?

Or is this life too unlucky?

Or is it something else?

Irin's pondered for a while, but he couldn't come up with an answer.

There was no way, Irin's only to suppress these doubts for the time being.

There are so many things he needs to worry about at the moment.

Regarding everything in the inner world, Irin has no time to care.

The most important thing is to just live.

Thinking of this, Irin had a lot of thoughts in his mind, and suddenly he became clear.

He began to sort out what he had learned from the trial.

"Apostolic panel."

Yi Rin said in his heart, a virtual panel, appeared in front of him.

……

【Irin】(ID:1010)

【Title】Skull Gentleman

HP: 100%

[Psionic Value] 850

【Mod】Apocalypse Knight (Broken)

【Level】LV24 (3rd Order Apostle)

[Strength] 4.2

Dexterity 5.0

[Spirit] 8.5

[Will] 8.0

[Lucky] 2.6

[Charm] 1.4

【Skills】Shadow Companion (MAX), Calamity (MAX), Bloodthirsty Plague (3 Stars), Summoned Mount Dire (1 Star), Grip of Annihilation (2 Stars), Shadow Glide (B+ Rank)

[Enhanced] Killing Skill (A-Grade), Dionysian Factor (Disabled) (Grade A), Yin-Yang Hand (B+ Grade)

……

Irin was emotional.

Before he knew it, his attribute value had grown to such a terrifying state.

Without the bonus of equipment, the sum of his strength, agility, and spirit attributes has reached as high as 17.7.

At this level, there are only a handful of people who can accumulate attribute values to this point through trials.

If Zhao Yulong knew Yi Rin's true attributes, he would probably be so frightened that he couldn't close his mouth.

In Green Town, with his agility attributes, he pretended to be an agility side apostle of the same level, and in Xing Fei's eyes, he didn't have any sense of disobedience, which can be seen from this.

Although Yi Rin will not swell up and say "I am invincible" for no reason like Li Changge, Yi Rin is also very satisfied with this level of rapid escalation.

"If it goes well, survive the two trials again, no more than three times, and under the increase of Blood Jasmine, my spiritual attribute will break through more than 10 points."

"Because I have already had the experience of unlocking the 'spiritual lock' before, this first layer of lock, for me, is nothing."

"The 'Wisdom Forbidden Fruit' given by Su Xiaosu can be saved."

"I'm going to use it on the second layer of 'spirit locks'!"

Irin looked at the numbers that appeared in front of him, the numbers on the panel, and countless thoughts turned in his heart.

Maybe it's because of the way he fights now, biased towards the agility side and the spirit side, after each clearance, the attribute bonus distribution is based on the spiritual attribute, supplemented by the agility attribute, and occasionally adds a loss of strength.

This way of adding points, although passive, is not a bad thing in Irin's opinion.

After all, the pure spiritual side apostle, although the skills are powerful and the spiritual energy value is also large, it can be said that the skills can be put up one after another. But weak in close combat, not fast enough, and dying early are recognized weaknesses.

As for the luck value and charm value, for some reason, it has been declining steadily, and Irin's power is powerless to stop it.

When you fall, you get used to it.

Maybe it will drop to 0 points, and it won't go down anymore.

Irin thought as she broke the jar.

Even if the luck value drops to zero, it will not be thunderous for no reason.

Even if the charm value drops to zero, you won't be chased and killed when you enter the trial.

Thinking about it like this, Irin felt a lot more comfortable.

This time, Irin barely hesitated to kill the trio.

The results are also good.

Irin guessed where they came from.

"The former 'White Shadow Club', that group of notorious killers, sure enough, there are still many people alive and have become apostles."

Speaking of which, Yi Rin remembered Ling Wuyan who he had inadvertently saved, and he didn't know how that guy was doing now, and there was no news.

Before, Yi Rin originally wanted to use the power of the special group to search for Ling Wuyan's traces across the country, but because of various changes such as "confused memory" and "parents suddenly disappeared", Yi Rin also left this matter behind.

After all, Ling Yiyi is now staying in Molly's laboratory for treatment, which is very safe, and it doesn't make much sense not to find out Ling Wuyan.

"Forget it."

Yi Rin thought about it, and deleted the name of "Ling Wuyan" from the mailing list.

He silently looked at the skills that a cute-looking killer had given him.

Shadow Glide.

This skill, Irin was impressed.

In the Future "Order" camp, there is a man who claims to be a "Shadow Thorn" who has this skill.

Unexpectedly, time and space changed, and after changing hands several times, this skill actually reached his hands.

Maybe he accidentally took away the opportunity that should have belonged to the "Shadow Thorn"?

Yi Rin silently mourned for three seconds for the "shadow thorn" who had cooled down before he could rise.

In a word.

Hi Da Puben.

Irin rubbed his palms together and looked at the attributes of the new skills he had acquired so hard.

……

【Shadow Gliding】

【Grade】B+

Cost: Each time you enter the shadow, you consume 70 psionic points. Maintaining "Glide" costs 3 psionic seconds.

[Effect] Enters the shadow state, can glide on any terrain where the shadow exists, and the movement speed is +30%. Shadow states cannot inflict damage or debuffs on any mob.

【Description】No one knows the tail line better than you!

……

"B+ Grade......

This skill that was touched from the box of seventy-three was of a higher grade than the predecessor of [Shadow Following] [Shielding Aura], and the effect was even more terrifying.

Of course, the effects of the two skills do not conflict, and there is even a tendency to complement each other.

Irin pondered every word on the skill.

"Cannot deal damage or debuffs to any creature, meaning it can stack with Shadowy?"

"Hmm...... A shadow without a sense of existence? ”

When he guessed the effect of using both skills at the same time, Irin was slightly stunned.

He felt that he was about to go further and further down the route of "righteous backstabbing".

As usual.

Irin closed his eyes.

Entered the mod space.

module space.

It's still the same.

Nothing new.

When the time comes, this pitch-black modular space is full of little stars, and Irin feels almost invincible.

Maybe so.

Irin expertly shrunk the mod and placed it tapped in front.

With a thought, [Shadow Gliding] turned into a glowing skill ball and floated at his side.

After all, now in Master Ma's territory, although it is not a hostile force, it is not good to delay too long in the mod space, so Yi Rin quickly grabbed the [Shadow Gliding] skill ball and began to match it into a mod skill.

After two lines, the broken skill slot lit up slightly, flickering and flickering.

Irin looked slightly stunned.

According to the skill type of [Shadow Gliding], the slot after the line of [Shadow Walking] can be matched, which is expected by Irin.

But I didn't expect that even the [mount line] would light up, which was indeed something that Irin didn't expect.

"The further back in the mod, the more likely it is to match?"

Irin thought of this possibility.

After a moment's hesitation, Irin didn't choose to cram the [Shadow Glide] onto the Dire's reinforcement.

After all, Dire, as a mount, comes with [Dark Night Mode], plus [Shadow Gliding], at most it is a new ability that is the icing on the cake, and it should not reach the point of qualitative change.

And Irin's heart is very much looking forward to what kind of situation a shadow without a sense of existence will be.

Probably similar to real complete stealth?

And the properties of the shadow are also very clear, and it can glide on all surfaces that can cast shadows.

Other words...... Flying cornices and walking on the wall, no problem.

Yi Rin didn't hesitate for too long, and stuffed the [Shadow Gliding] skill ball into the slot behind [Shadow].

[This operation costs 20,000 chaos value.] 】

【YESNO？ 】

Irin's eyes widened.

Another 20,000?

Inflation isn't that outrageous, right?

As more skill slots are lit up, it seems that the required chaos value is getting bigger and bigger.

Irin felt like he was in his lifetime, as if it was hard to see the entire mod filled.

After returning from Styx Junior High School, Irin's chaos value was still over 30,000.

In Grimm Town, because all the people or monsters he killed were in the dream realm, Irin basically didn't earn much chaos points.

It's only when the trio actually dies that they contribute a little bit of mosquito legs to Irin.

"Thirty-six thousand."

"After this upgrade, there are a little more than 16,000 left."

Irin complained, but what should be upgraded still had to be upgraded.

Only when the chaos value is spent can it really become its own strength.

This chaos is worth saving and there is no interest, although the flesh hurts, but there is nothing to hesitate.

“YES！”

As the ball of light turns into light to fill the groove, the fine cracks on the groove are quickly repaired and re-lit.

[Consumes 20,000 Mayhem!] (Remaining Mayhem Value: 16221)】

["Shadow Gliding" has been upgraded to ...... "Shadow Killing"!] 】

The name......

Domineering!

Irin's eyes froze slightly.

Post-upgrade.

Irin quickly exited the mod space.

After all, after leaving the mod, you can also check the effect of the skill, and there is no need to pestle in the mod space.

After exiting the mod space.

Irin reopens the skills panel to see the new skills that have been upgraded.

……

【Shadow Kill】

[Grade] 1 star (40000 chaos value at the next level)

[Cost] Consumes 100 psionic points each time you enter the "Shadow State". Maintaining the "Shadow" state costs 3 psionic seconds.

Effect: Click to view details.

No one knows the tail line better than you, and no one knows assassination better than you. The Lord of Shadows will be with you.

……

Shadow Kill!

This new skill upgraded by [Shadow Gliding] through the mod made Irin's emotions can't help but be surprised.

Originally, [Shadow Gliding] was just a stealth skill.

But after the module is upgraded, it has become a terrifying existence that integrates stealth, acceleration, and assassination.

Also, although this skill consumes a lot of psionic energy, it also has no cooldown.

Each time you enter the Shadow State, you need to consume 100 psionics.

And the amount of psionic energy that continues to be consumed to maintain the "Shadow State" is nothing to an orthodox spiritual side like Irin.

It's comfortable.

Irin doesn't have the ability to test new skills here, after all, this is Master Ma's territory, and he can only talk about it when he has time.

But this new skill will bring a drastic change to Irin's fighting style.

The words he said to Seventy-Three at that time may have been suspected of pretending to be coercive and scaring people.

But when Irin's two skills, [Shadow Follow] and [Shadow Kill], he was really able to say this time-

"No one knows assassination better than he does."

No one.

smashed a wave of skills, and Irin was in a happy mood.

He began to sort out other harvests.

With the addition of the bag licking, there are four more items in Rin's inventory at once.

[Alan's Treasured Paintings].

[Blessing of the Spearman].

[Nightmare Sheet Music Chapter 6].

[Proof of Righteousness].

Irin took out the cards one by one.

"This painting ......"

The corners of Irin's mouth twitched slightly.

It's really worthy of the soul painter Alan.

Regardless of the content of the picture, Yi Rin glanced at the attributes, his eyes were slightly condensed, but he quickly put it away.

It's just a rare grade prop, but maybe where it will come in handy, so let's not mention it for now.

"Blessing of the Spearmen......"

The corners of Irin's eyes twitched this time.

He felt that this card seemed to be a kind of wordless sarcasm for him.

Irin silently put away the [Blessing of the Spearman].

He took out the main quest reward again.

- [Nightmare Score, Chapter 6]

On the surface of the card, there is a roll of musical score.

After crushing, Irin looked through the dim light......

It's really a sheet music.

And it's a stave.

"I can't understand it at all."

The attributes are not explicitly stated, do you really have to use the violin to play it out to have an effect?

Irin was speechless.

But he doesn't know the rhythm.

You can't just learn the violin in order to trigger the effect of this prop, right?

Irein remembered the song that the host, "Green", played in front of him over and over again in Greentown.

"Well, maybe it's a bit of a doorway."

Irin began to think.

In the "Future Circle of Friends" that he has not yet had time to establish, is there anyone who is proficient in music?

Yes, yes......

But I don't know you yet.

Rushed over...... Not quite right?

Irin thought for a moment.

took out his phone again, and silently added another name at the end of the list.

The reason why Molly was not asked to check was because Irin knew where this "friend" who was proficient in music was at this moment.

I have a friend who I haven't had time to get to know yet.

Irin felt that this situation was a little painful.

He could only put the score away for now.

We'll talk about it later.

Rubbing his palms, Irin pulled out another card.

On the front of the card, there is a pattern of three large swords that are bright and blind, clashing together.

……

【Proof of Righteousness】

【Grade】Rare

Effect: Click to view details.

Note: Click to view details.

……

Sure enough, it's a temporary team contract!

Temporary team contracts, although the names are different, but the effect is generally similar.

This kind of contract, which is equivalent to a temporary team mode, allows three friends who know the bottom line to team up to enter the next trial.

In Green Town, the former killer of the "White Shadow Club" used this prop to form a team and enter Green Town for trial.

"There's only 1 time left?"

There is indeed such a drawback to using the props from the relics bag, second-hand goods...... He used it as many times as he did when he was alive, and when it came to Irin, he would have it as many times as he wanted, and he would never have one or two more out of thin air.

"Teaming up?"

Irin's eyes closed, teaming up is indeed beneficial.

After all, if you participate in the trial with a friend you can trust, you can have less of a defense behind you, so that he can concentrate more on dealing with the various crises in the trial.

Moreover, teaming up with familiar friends, Irin's scruples are also more able to let go of his scruples and concentrate on hitting a higher clearance evaluation.

There were only three of them.

But at this stage, it is also sufficient.

Irin began to think in his head, choosing his teammates.

"Wait......"

Irin suddenly opened his eyes.

That's when he noticed something.

"Three...... Same-sex people? ”

Irin was slightly stunned.

"The one called 'Seventy-Three' turned out to be a ...... Man? ”

What a.

I don't know if the other two teammates know about this appalling fact.

No, I guess I know.

Otherwise it wouldn't be together.

Since it can only be the same sex, it means that Su Xiaosu and Oda Dance cannot be chosen.

Irin quickly simulates various combinations of teammates in his mind.

Soon, he came to a conclusion.

"Interesting."

Irin put away the [Proof of Righteousness].

Finally, the harvest of the trial in Green Town has been sorted out, which is not unrich.

Whether it's props or skills, this wave is not a loss.

The progress bar of [Grievance] has also increased a lot.

Irin lay on the bed and rolled over, thinking about various new operations to cooperate with [Shadow Kill], and soon fell asleep.

He's a little tired.

Nothing was said all night.

Three days later.

Although Green Town's evaluation is not high, its strength, agility, and spiritual attributes have all increased a little.

Soon, Irin's ability to adapt to the new stat changes.

Of course, this change is not visible on the surface because Irin deliberately hides it.

In Master Ma's eyes, Yi Rin is still the hateful rich second generation who is a little suspicious, but he can't find evidence to inherit the family's inheritance.

this day.

Wearing overalls emblazoned with the word "Dog Male" on them, Irin skillfully works in the shop.

During the peak dining period, the business of hot pot restaurants is also good.

Emperor Wang Tiandi moved his black nose from time to time, smelling the fragrance wafting from the store, and the corners of his mouth were dripping with slimy saliva.

Then.

The familiar vibration came from the chest.
