Walking the Path of a Workaholic in Cliché Novels (QT) Chapter 182

As a high-ranking member of the Soul Clan, the High Priest knew a lot of information, and it was very accurate. Therefore, An Yinong’s live broadcast room attracted millions of followers within a few minutes. He even appeared at an emergency meeting held in the virtual world.

“It would be great if I could use this power.”

“Yes, I guess I will become an explorer in the future.”

On the screen, the Soul Clan’s High Priest had already spoken the most crucial information.

‘That’s about it,’ An Yinong thought, ‘A force without limits and weaknesses will make people more fearful.’

After talking about his troop deployment and specific battle plan, the Soul Clan Priest ‘escaped’ the control of ‘Spirit Words’ for a moment, and he raised his scepter once again.

“This guy…” An Yinong frowned, [Tell me… Ugh! ]

He seemed unable to control the High Priest of the Soul Clan, and a mouthful of blood spurted out of his mouth. At the moment of ‘losing control’, the Soul Clan High Priest’s scepter was already aimed at An Yinong.

“Qin!” Ken appeared beside An Yinong in the blink of an eye, trying to stop the Soul Clan High Priest: Although he was very vigilant, he also knew that it was he who possessed this power, and how much benefit he would get.

This army always put collective interests first, and then individual interests. This had become its foundation.

An Yinong was surprised. He didn’t expect his self-torture trick to have such an effect. But of course he would not let this outstanding contestant die for him. So the red flower vine on the Soul Clan High Priest bloomed instantly and covered his whole body.

The death energy of the Soul Clan’s high priest was no match for the growth of the red flower vines, and he was drained.

“Ah… who are you?” The Soul Clan’s High Priest had no idea why he had failed.

“Guess?” An Yinong looked at him falling down indifferently.

The black robe of the Soul Clan High Priest turned into smoke, and the twelve-hole bone mask and the scepter in his hand fell together.

The rest of Team Ken came over, one of them tried to pick up the mask, but the mask broke into pieces when touched, but the scepter remained. He came over with the scepter, as if he was going to give it back to An Yinong, but An Yinong was coughing up blood.

The blood splattered on the green grass, like clusters of red flowers.

Qin supported him as he was unsteady on his feet: “Where do you feel uncomfortable? How can I help you?”

“Qin, I’m so hungry.” The black runes faded from his skin, and the backlash had stopped. An Yinong felt not only pain but also hunger, so hungry that he felt dizzy.

At that time, he was no longer the big boss who controlled the life and death of the Soul Clan High Priest. He was a young man who was injured, bloodied, and screamed in pain to the one he loved. Seeing An Yinong like this, Qin’s heart was soft and bitter: “You take a rest, I’ll go find food.”

“Yeah.” An Yinong’s vision was blurry and his strength was drained away, but he felt at ease when he held the man in front of him. He closed his eyes and fainted.

The sun outside the clouds gradually faded and disappeared, the ground shook again, and the world fell into darkness again.

Hugging his teammate who no longer had a bright smile, Qin, who had always been extremely calm and rational, finally started to panic.

He picked him up and carried him sideways. Team Ken couldn’t stop him. They had to watch him leave the shaky slope. The wind beast also chased after him on the breeze.

“Boss, what should we do now?” One team member pointed at the scepter in his hand.

“Give it to him next time we meet,” Ken said, and at the same time, he wanted to find out the scope and limitations of that force to see if there was still a chance for cooperation.

Kill the Soul Clan’s high priest and control him to tell the truth. He believed the military was willing to provide convenience for those with special powers.

As he spoke, the ground continued to heave and tear, but the rocks rolling down the mountain were caught by the wildly growing vegetation, and the shaking of the earth was not as violent. Slowly, the mountains calmed down.

The players looked up at the sky, knowing that the test given by the game would soon be over. The test given by the game planner had passed, but the test given by aliens outside the game had just begun.

The politicians of various Zerg countries began to contact their own military departments to confirm the authenticity of the information. As a result, they received bad news: “Half a year ago, it was discovered that aliens were entering and leaving the border, and there were warships patrolling.”

“Why didn’t you tell me about this?”

“They have been frequenting the border of the Zerg star region this year. If we tell the public about this without confirmation, it will cause chaos. But now that it has been confirmed, I can make preparations.”

The military departments of various Zerg countries once again appeared in the virtual conference room for a meeting.

After many years, the national war preparation plan had started again. Colleges and universities were preparing to teach children about alien races, their strengths and weaknesses, and how to protect themselves after encountering them. Residential areas should also prepare for wartime exercises, learn how to protect themselves, and how to enter the war shelter as quickly as possible.

Of course, the first thing to prepare was the military regions of various countries.

He knew the aliens’ battle plan, but the aliens would also know that their own battle plans had been leaked, and would guess each other’s moves, putting on a good show of “I predicted your prediction”.

So he needed to be fully prepared to deal with all possible problems. At the same time, he also needed to contact the game company to see if he could stop the game immediately.

The civilians were unaware of the military meeting, and were still discussing what happened today in the live broadcast room.

Facing the mess, the Ken team’s live broadcast room was silent for a long time. After a long time, an audience member said: “When Ken chose to give up on this player in the differentiation period, I actually called him a coward. No, it turns out that I was the stupid one.”

Who could have thought that a seemingly harmless differentiation period could actually kill the troublesome Soul Clan High Priest.

“A Soul Clan’s High Priest had come out. I thought even Qin would be dead this time.” The audience in Qin’s live broadcast room were also in shock.

He was the chief priest of the Soul Clan, an evil entity that was difficult to kill with physical attacks. He could easily wake up a row of Soul Clan members with just a single summon, or even create an entire Soul Clan army.

The soul clan was a strong threat to life. Its death energy was a non-physical force that could penetrate most protective barriers and kill life. The soul clan plus the high priest was a bug.

A Soul Clan army plus a high priest, plus a hundred-meter-tall mechanical clan… Even Qin would have a hard time dealing with them. In addition, the equipment gap was huge and Qin was not in good condition. No one dared to say that the result will be good.

“I confess. I also said that he was holding the Great Emperor back.” Those who called him the Great Emperor were all extreme fans. They felt that everyone was unworthy of being with their idol, but this time the shock was so great that his worldview was shattered.

Why does a Zerg in the differentiation stage have such power? Was it a mutation?

They no longer feel that they were not a good match. He was truly a “well-matched” person with equal fighting power. And when they stood together, there was a sense of harmony that no one else can blend in.

Seeing Qin flying across the top of the mountain with An Yinong in his arms, the audience couldn’t help but shed tears of envy: “It’s so sad, even after entering a survival game, they found such a good partner, I…”

“They’re not even a couple yet. I haven’t even filed a complaint yet.”

“Oh! Really, Qin has gone stupid after staying in the army. With such a suitable candidate, why is he still hesitating?” First, he had already pressed the high priest of the Dead Soul Clan during a differentiation period. If he continued to refuse, wouldn’t it be a bit ungrateful?

As for An Yinong’s live broadcast room, besides being amazed at how he accidentally got a hidden powerful player, they were also worried about An Yinong – he just vomited so much blood and fainted, and they didn’t know what the specific situation was.

“He hadn’t taken any action before, but suddenly he started killing people like this. Is it because he was worried about Qin?”

The audience was not blind or stupid. They had brains and could analyze: “It’s obvious that he has paid a price for this. I wonder what will happen in the future.”

“Definitely not. But he ruined the aliens’ plan. I’m worried that they will cause trouble for him.”

“You damn aliens, kill one if you come, kill two if you come! I’m a high-level Zerg, I’m more of a support, and my sister has already joined the army, so I’ve never joined. But… I want to join the army this year.”

“Upstairs, me too, I am also planning to join the army this year, but I just couldn’t make up my mind and I just submitted the application form.”

The news of the alien invasion seemed to have greatly stimulated the people. In just one night, the military departments of various countries received hundreds of thousands of new applications for enlistment.

The world outside the game was in turmoil, but the players inside the game knew nothing about it. They were still trying to prepare for the coming test. At this time, Qin had already taken An Yinong out of the mountains and arrived at the next venue.

Golden sunlight shone through the leaves, turning into light spots and falling on An Yinong’s face. He found himself lying on the soft grass, with Fengchi lying beside him, looking at him with his dark eyes.

There was a little sweetness in his mouth, the taste of juice. He didn’t know what kind of juice it was, but it had a light sour taste and a strong sweet fragrance. I felt refreshed after licking it. He sat up. He was no longer hungry, but his chest still hurt a little. It would probably take another day to go away.

“Qin?”

Qin stood in the shadow under the tree, his thin lips pursed into a cold and sharp line like a knife blade, his ice-blue eyes were unusually fascinating because of the gloomy look in them.

An Yinong always thought Qin was a cutie, but at this moment he suddenly felt that when he was not around, he was indeed a terrifying killer.

Ah, he seemed to like it more. Damn his sense of aesthetic.

Qin walked out from the shadow under the tree. The sunlight did not dispel the coldness on him. He half-knelt down, his fascinated eyes reflected An Yinong’s figure, and his slender, cold fingers brushed across his forehead: “Your eyes have recovered.”

An Yinong’s original eye color was olive green, which was not very noticeable with his dark brown hair before, but now his hair and skin have become as white as snow, making his green eyes look vibrant and tender like new buds. Especially the teardrop mole at the right corner of the eye, which made him look more lively and light.

His deep and cool voice matched his temperament perfectly. An Yinong couldn’t help asking, “Are you teasing me? I’m not being too sentimental, am I?”

Qin had a lot of questions and wanted to seriously inquire about the situation, but this one sentence ruined his thoughts: It’s not right to say he was flirting, and it’s not right to say he was not flirting either.

Regardless of whether you are a man or a woman, you will show off your strengths to someone you like, right? For example, you can tell someone you love at first sight that you are “very good-looking.”

Qin had many concerns. He could not provide a safe and stable environment, and he was dying. Moreover, he had offended so many alien races. If he died, would the hatred be transferred to An Yinong who was left behind?

What happened not long ago only added to his worries. After he left the Explorer group, alien races continued to come bother him. An Yinong’s power could restrain the Soul Clan, but what if he encountered other powerful races?

An Yinong was not an explorer, and he could not even ask for help from an explorer. How could he fight against that guy who would do anything to achieve his goal? He didn’t consider this.

Seeing Qin’s concerns, An Yinong smiled helplessly: Why did every world have to be so entangled? Oh, too responsible, too moral, always serious. If it were An Yinong, he wouldn’t care so much. Life was short, so he might as well live it out to the fullest.

“Just kidding. What? Are you still worried about that alien race? Don’t worry, I’m here.” He stretched lazily. “Are you scared? Actually, it just consumes food. There are no side effects. Just eat enough and you’ll be fine.”

Qin didn’t know whether what he said was true or just pretending. He didn’t ask any more questions, but pulled him up.

“I’m out of the mountains?”

“You’ve already left. You’ve been unconscious for a day and a night. Today is the ninth day of the game.”

An Yinong stood up: “Did I sleep for so long? Then wouldn’t I be behind schedule?”

“No games.” Seeing his lively appearance, the dark cloud in Qin’s heart quietly dissipated. This day was the most tangled and difficult day in his adult life.

He was worried that the food he found would be useless to him, that he would never wake up again, and that he would be in a bad condition after waking up. Fortunately, none of this happened.

“Mai, you…”

“What?” An Yinong stood up and stretched his arms and legs, then turned to look at him. The golden sunlight danced on his hair and young face, making him look young and energetic.

Qin looked at him in a daze, and stretched out his hands to grasp the sunshine and the fleeting time, but his palms were empty. ‘Why didn’t I meet you earlier?’

One hand was placed on Qin’s outstretched hand, and then closed. The warm feeling was transmitted to the other through the contact of skin. Qin subconsciously held it tightly, raised his head, and saw An Yinong’s smiling face, dispelling all the darkness.

“Let me go and catch up with him.”

“Okay.”
