Scheming
“What’s going on?”
Thank you readers!
Lu Benwei was shocked by his spirit attribute. It had exceeded the limit of a hunter.
If he wanted to check his exact value, he would probably have to use some special method to check it in the future. As for the other attributes…
Other than his dexterity attribute, he had surpassed all other hunters of the same level.
Lu Benwei absorbed the star power and converted it into experience points.
!!
Then, he triggered One-Click Ten Times Experience, which was why he leveled up four times in a row and reached level 59!
If it was not for the fact that Ha City’s star power was not dense enough, Lu Benwei might have surpassed level 60.
At level 60, a normal hunter’s spirit attribute would reach 1000 points, and their soul origin would take shape. They could learn soul-related skills.
However, magicians, supporters, or other special hidden classes that focused on the spirit attribute would reach this stage much earlier.
As for Lu Benwei, he was an exception. After letting out a sigh of relief, Lu Benwei slowly opened his eyes.
“There’s still some way to go before I reach level 60. I must find a time to break through as soon as possible.”
At this moment, the horizon was already covered in a layer of white. A faint glow covered the abandoned station.
“Although my secret base is a little broken, it’s not that broken, right?”
The old beggar’s voice sounded. He was carrying two bags of savory tofu pudding and six big buns. He looked around and stopped when he saw Lu Benwei.
“Brat, why did you almost tear down my secret base?”
The old beggar said unhappily as he took out two paper bowls. That was the kitchen in the secret base. The old beggar and Lu Benwei used him to settle their breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
“Why aren’t there any fried dough sticks?”
Lu Benwei glanced at it and patted his belly.
“Savory tofu pudding with fried dough sticks? If you eat like this in Ha City, you’ll be beaten to death.” The old beggar pursed his lips in dissatisfaction.
Lu Benwei ignored the old beggar and scooped up a spoonful of tofu pudding.
The white and tender tofu was wrapped in a layer of sauce, and it slipped into his stomach. The taste of pepper in the soup instantly exploded in his taste buds and went straight to his brain.
Lu Benwei shouted to his heart’s content and picked up the steamed bun to eat.
The old beggar pursed his lips and squatted on the ground to eat with Lu Benwei.
In the huge second-hand car recycling station. The cold air was filled with the smell of engine oil and the sound of the two people slurping.
Days were short and nights were long in Ha City. Even though it was already the end of March, the temperature in the morning was only maintained at two or three degrees.
A bowl of spicy and hot savory tofu pudding was just enough to dispel the cold and tiredness from a sleepless night.
Lu Benwei was almost done eating and wiped the oil off his mouth with the back of his hand.
“Old beggar, what did you find out last night?”
“That kid didn’t lie to us.” The old beggar did not even raise his head. He squatted on the ground and ate the bun in big bites.
“You only asked about this one night?” Lu Benwei was speechless.
“What else?” The old beggar raised his head and glared at Lu Benwei. “Didn’t you ask me to find out about this?”
Lu Benwei was speechless.
“Other than this, at least ask for some other useful information?”
Seeing that the old beggar was still eating, Lu Benwei pursed his lips and turned his head away.
“Am I that dumb?”
The old beggar wiped his mouth and took out a toothpick to pick his teeth.
“Gao Shengqiang has Tiger Sect and Yilong.”
“Yilong?”
“Yes! He’s also Gao Shengqiang’s hired thug,” the old beggar said while picking his teeth, “It’s said that his strength is over level 60. And rumor has it that he’s currently in seclusion and might break through to level 70.”
When Lu Benwei heard this, he frowned slightly.
“Level 70, this is going to be a little troublesome. If we give up Ha City, can we find Nascent Soul Fruits in other cities?”
“No!” The old beggar shook his head. “Unless we’re lucky enough to pick up a fruit from the ground. It’s a Nascent Soul Fruit. Otherwise, you won’t be able to find another Nascent Soul Fruit even if you turn the three northern provinces upside down.”
“Are you sure?”
“Yes!” Lu Benwei sighed helplessly. “In other words, we have to cooperate with Liu Yao.” action
“I feel like that guy is hiding a knife behind his smile,” the old beggar threw away the toothpick and said.
Lu Benwei looked at the old beggar in disdain and did not say anything else.
At this moment, Lu Benwei’s phone rang. Looking at the name of the caller, Lu Benwei’s pupils subconsciously constricted.
The old beggar also saw that it was Liu Yao.
Lu Benwei made a gesture to keep quiet. After pressing the answer button, he turned on the speaker.
“Brother Lu, how’s the investigation going?”
Liu Yao said with a smile. Lu Benwei immediately looked up at the old beggar.
“You followed me?” The old beggar gritted his teeth.
“Old sir, please don’t misunderstand.” Liu Yao chuckled. “Don’t forget what era we’re in. There are surveillance cameras everywhere.”
“I have some relationship with the Patrol Bureau. You also know that recently, you and Brother Lu are the most popular people in Ha City. The patrols are also anxious to arrest you. Since I want to be friends with Brother Lu, I decided to help Brother Lu solve some problems.”
Lu Benwei and the old beggar’s expressions instantly turned cold.
“What exactly do you want?”
“Didn’t I already say that I want to be friends with Brother Lu?”
When Liu Yao said this, Lu Benwei and the old beggar could already imagine the other party sitting in a boss’ chair and speaking into the microphone with a fake smile.
“Alright, I promise you,” Lu Benwei replied coldly, “Let me owe you a favor. I’ve prepared the things. Come and get them!”
“Really?”
Liu Yao did not hide his excitement.
“Since Brother Lu has agreed, I’ll go over immediately.”
“Beep, beep, beep-”
Liu Yao hung up the phone.
“No, what kind of medicine is this kid selling? And you’re really going to agree to his request?” The old beggar looked depressed.
“I have no choice. My strength isn’t as good as before.” Lu Benwei nodded.
“The Nascent Soul Fruit is the thing that I need to break out of this situation. I have to get it. We don’t have time to look for him in other provinces. We have no choice but to cooperate with Liu Yao.”
“That’s true.” The old beggar sighed. “You’re going to the icefield soon. It’s dangerous there. You have to recover your peak strength.”
Then, Lu Benwei raised his chin. “But I can guess why Liu Yao is so eager to cooperate with us.”
“He wants to use us to get rid of the Gao family?” the old beggar answered.
“No, not only that. Gao Shengqiang’s elder brother is a national pillar. If his younger brother is in trouble, he’ll investigate this matter to the end. At that time, Liu Yao will also be implicated…”
