Purgatory Artist

The sound of horse hooves could be heard.

The City Lord's manor's gate opened as a group of Professionists full of killing intent rushed in.

"Sir Holy Knight!"

The warrior Zhao Mingguang shouted from his horse.

Behind him, the 29 Professionists all stared at the glowing crown on Liu Ping's head.

A Holy Knight!

He really is a Holy Knight!

Liu Ping put the flag away and waved his hand: "This time, we're here to take something away. Once we get it, you'll need to take turns to bring it out"

"Yes sir!"

Everyone dismounted from their horses, quickly arranged the manpower according to the plan, then quickly gathered around Liu Ping and headed towards the City Lord's manor.

On the way, there were a few people who tried to stop them.

But with 30 Professionists attacking at once, anyone who tried to stop them was killed on the spot.

"They ... why are they insects?"

A Professionist looked at the corpses on the ground and asked.

"Be careful, some of them are very strong" Liu Ping said.

Everyone turned into a hallway.

Suddenly, a snow-white cat appeared at the end of the hallway, speaking in human language:

"Liu Ping, the treasury is over here"

It was Zhao Chanyi!

When she landed earlier, she had already entered the City Lord's manor to quickly check the situation.

"Let's go"

Liu Ping led everyone forward, only to see a place that looked like a warehouse, the two main doors were already broken, the inside was a mess.

Colorful gems, bags of gold coins, porcelain, weapons, and scrolls were scattered all over the place.

Oong

A sound suddenly came from Liu Ping's body.

It was the wooden key!

The key had to come close to the first Card in order to make a sound.

"Very good, seems like the Card is still here"

Liu Ping rushed in, searched through the items on the ground, then suddenly raised a wooden box up high and shouted: "I found it!"

In a flash ...

Several insects suddenly appeared on the walls around them.

One of them was a humanoid insect that gave off a black glow, mocking him:

「 Idiot, I originally wanted to lure you away, but since you're here, the Card in your hand is mine! 」

A tyrannical wave spread out from its body, blowing everything in the warehouse away.

Liu Ping suddenly shouted: "Zhao Mingguang!"

He threw the box up.

Zhao Mingguang took the box, turned around and ran.

The dozen Professionists around him immediately raised their shields and blocked the entrance of the treasury to buy time for Zhao Mingguang.

「Trying to run?」The black insect rammed into the door and sent all the Professionists at the door flying.

The other worms immediately chased after him. Before they left, they spat out viscous green liquid at Liu Ping.

Liu Ping pulled a table in front of him to block it, but the table was instantly corroded.

"Divine Light Shield!"

The white cat on his shoulder let out a delicate cry, clenched its claws, and erected a shield in the air that was emitting light.

All the attacks were blocked.

"Chanyi, quick! Quickly go and snatch that wooden box. Don't let them succeed! "Liu Ping said anxiously.

"Don't worry, leave it to me." the white cat replied.

She turned into a streak of light and flew out. Suddenly, she turned into a young girl and slashed across the air with her saber.

Formless waves of ferocious energy rippled out from the void.

The last of the insects had their bodies torn apart. They let out a series of miserable cries and fell to the ground, unable to move.

But the leading black insect didn't care about any of this.

It charged forward with all its might, once again rammed into the Professionists blocking its path and landed on Zhao Mingguang's back.

In the blink of an eye.

Zhao Mingguang threw the wooden box forward and shouted:

"Take this box with you!"

A short Professionist was already standing at the end of the path, caught the wooden box in his hand, then turned around and ran.

After running a few steps, his figure quickly turned into a unicorn, holding the wooden box in his mouth as he ran out of the City Lord's manor.

The black insect let out a furious screech and muttered: "Demonic Light Tide!"

Outside the City Lord's manor, black demonic light that looked like walls manifested.

The unicorn, however, turned a blind eye to it and ran straight into the walls.

The horn on its head gave off a blinding light that pierced through the walls of demonic light in front of it.

Just like that, it opened up a path and ran out of the city.

The black demonic insect scoffed and was about to give chase when it abruptly dodged.

A sharp saber light appeared where it had been.

The demonic insect glanced back.

Only to see Liu Ping standing on the side of the path with all the Professionists raising their shields to protect him.

While Zhao Chanyi stood in front of everyone with a longsword in her hand, an eager expression on her face.

"You've lost, the wooden box has been taken away by my people, you won't be able to find that Card" Liu Ping muttered.

The black demonic insect spoke: 「Young man, I've seen too many powerful opponents, gone through countless battles, the number of people I've killed is even greater than the number of days you've lived, why are you acting so arrogant in front of me?」

Liu Ping cleared his throat and said: "I know you're an unimaginable existence, how about this."

"Don't try to compete with me for the Sequence Card, after this is over, I'll let you go, you can regain your freedom to enter Evernight and compete with the powerful Sleepers in other places, but don't try to attack us."

"What do you think?"

Saying so, Liu Ping silently waited for the other party to respond.

The black demonic insect mocked: 「You don't know anything at all, yet you dare to boast so shamelessly ...」

"We can sign a strict contract, or do you have any other requests?" Liu Ping calmly asked.

「Every human's soul must become my nourishment, only then will I be able to recover a bit of my power ... can you agree to this condition?」 the black demonic insect asked.

"Why don't you have any sincerity at all?" Liu Ping sighed.

The black demonic insect let out a low chuckle and spoke: 「Young man, I know you're trying to stall for time, to let that person run further and hide that Sequence Card, but I've already set up spatial warp points all over the city」

「You're too naive. 」

After saying so, a distorted spatial fluctuation appeared from its body.

At the very next moment.

It disappeared.

This time, it was Zhao Mingguang's group's turn to be stunned.

"It knows how to warp!"

"What do we do?"

"It must be waiting for our people outside the city, damn it!"

"We can't hide anymore."

Everyone was talking at once, they were all anxious.

Liu Ping took a deep look at his surroundings, then turned around and walked towards the treasury.

As he entered the treasury, he saw a line of text floating in an empty place:

[Demonic Insect Assasin]

There's still a Demonic Insect hiding here!

Liu Ping spoke in a low voice: "Chanyi, at the front desk on the left, kill it with all your might."

"Got it."

The Blade's glow spread, enveloping the entire desk and lightly twisting it.

The Demonic Insect hiding in the void of space didn't even have time to scream before it was cut into a puddle of dark green blood.

The void of space moved.

Yana lightly landed on the ground, holding a whip in her hand as she stood by Liu Ping's side.

Zhao Chanyi stood on the other side with her Blade.

Until now.

Only then did Liu Ping bend down and pick up a metal box on the ground.

He took out the wooden key.

The key let out a sharp screeching sound.

"Found it."

Liu Ping nodded and put the key into the box.

Kacha!

The box opened.

There was a card lying quietly in it.

There was a forest drawn on the card, and in the middle of the forest, there was a deep pool.

A woman stood in the middle of the pool, a tree branch grew above her head, blooming with bright flowers.

Forest Banshee!

As Liu Ping stared at the Card, the Banshee also looked at him.

"You seem completely unharmed. Did you not fight?"

The Forest Banshee smiled and asked.

Liu Ping answered: "It was that prisoner, it wanted to trick me once, so I also tricked it."

"And the result?" the Banshee asked.

"It fell for it." Liu Ping answered.

In the void of space, lines of burning text quickly appeared:

[Congratulations]

[You've found one of the Sequence's constituent Cards]

[It will become the foundation of the Sequence: 'Land of Exile', fusing with this Sequence]

[In return, you'll receive the present world's power as a gift]

[You're about to level up!]
