[Wandering Mage]!

A fifth-order legendary profession!

Su Lu was determined to attain it.

In the transcendent world, a complete lineage mostly refers to the complete path from first-order transcendent to fourth-order master-level.

But the [Spirit Medium] system has a fifth order?

Even if he can’t really advance to that level, it’s still of significant value for Su Lu’s future research into the successor of the [Mysterious Master].

“Alright… ”

Kira nodded, clearly knowing that Su Lu wouldn’t give up.

He pondered for a moment, unbuttoning the area close to his neck, “A profession at the legendary level can’t be described and recorded by ordinary paper… This is the most precious thing I found in that relic!”

Hearing this, Su Lu focused his eyes on his chest.

He saw that around Kira’s neck lay a strange-looking tattoo, it seemed to resemble a necklace.

“This is the first mysterious object I made after becoming a [Mystical Scholar]. I call it the ‘Flesh Locket’. It can seal some valuable small things in flesh, and absolutely prevent them from being lost…”

Kira explained, and the seal around his neck was released.

There was a flash of light, the tattoo shimmered, it materialized from insignificance to importance, as if it had ripped right through his flesh. Cold sweat dripped from Kira’s forehead, evidently, it was a painful process.

His trembling hands removed the necklace.

On the blood-red chain was an obsidian pendant attached, “Here, it’s yours!”

Su Lu sensed it with his spiritual perception and found indeed there was no danger, only then did he reach out to take it.

The locket appeared in the shape of a book, like a miniaturized hard-covered ancient book. The material of obsidian was exceptionally sturdy, and it felt chilly to hold.

“Huh?”

Su Lu let out a surprised sound as he found a stream of information had entered his mind.

It was the initiation information of the fifth-order [Wandering Mage]!

The horrifying stream of information, capable enough to fill several large books, was condensed into a small locket. It was truly incredible.

“[Wandering Mage], also known as [Dimensional Mage], [Void Mage]! They are the beloved children of the void, the travellers of dimensions, who can traverse the spirit world and wield miraculous magical abilities. Promotion ritual: …”

Su Lu slowly read through, his eyes suddenly wide opened.

“You saw it too, didn’t you?”

Kira let out a bitter smile, “Feel pretty disappointed, don’t you? Not only that the two preceding professions were incomplete, but the key to advancing to [Wandering Mage] also requires a crucial material… A marvel that carries the aura from an alien world! But how could we possibly travel to another world before advancing to it? Unless we beg for mercy from demons and divinities, but that would often draw Their attention! The price we would have to pay is definitely not what would be willing to.”

“Indeed… there’s only research value!”

As if nothing had happened, Su Lu casually stuffed the locket into his pocket: “It might also have some souvenir value, considering it was dug out from a relic. ”

This indifferent performance was actually to mask his inner excitement.

‘A marvel that carries the aura from an alien world? My soul is from an alien world, it undoubtedly carries the aura of another world!’

Su Lu felt a bit stunned, it seemed like he had already resolved this huge dilemma?

And the performance of this status bar was even more astounding to Su Lu:

[Ding! Detected fifth-order profession information – Wandering Mage! The preconditions for employment require fourth-order professions: Dream Master, Dimension Traveler… Ritual requirements: Aura of an Alien Marvel…]

[Residual condition analysis in progress, current progress 13-7%!]

[Insufficient conditions, unable to initiate!]

[XP+IOO]

‘This is the first time I’ve seen a profession that the attribute bar can’t analyze instantly…’

Su Lu’s face was expressionless, concealing his inner surprise, ‘But…it is still quite useful, at least, it has already analyzed two prerequisite professions. It is just unknown which one is the follow-up of the [Odd Technician] and where to find the legacy left by the other one…’

‘In addition to the scriptures of the Black Death Society, I finally see the attribute column drawing experience from another item. Could this locket possess some sort of peculiar power, or perhaps, spirit?’

100 points of experience was far from the limit of this locket!

Su Lu could even feel that as long as he ‘reads’ it again, he could reap a large amount of experience points!

This was much safer and faster than murder and arson.

“Where exactly is the relic that holds the path of the [Traveling Mage] on the Old Continent?”

Su Lu asked.

“Southern Province of the Chris Empire…but after my exploration, an earthquake caused it to collapse,” Kira answered.

“What a pity…”

If possible, Su Lu really intended to go and take a look.

The Chris Empire was once the world’s dominant power, the former New Continent, and most of the White Eagle Federation were its colonies.

Even now, it’s still brilliant.

Despite being across a vast ocean from the White Eagle Federation, requiring several months of steamboat travel, Su Lu still felt he wanted to explore it.

Hearing that the relic had been destroyed was a great pity.

“So… now that the trade is done, where are you planning to go next?” he asked curiously.

“Where else can I go?”

Kira gave a wry smile, “Such a big incident happened tonight, the police station and church will surely investigate. I have a dirty background, I can only change my identity.”

Su Lu immediately thought of the documents in the secret cabinet, it seemed that Mr. Gales had everything prepared in advance.

‘Makes sense…a person involved with demons should always be ready to run!’

‘Now…perhaps it’s the best opportunity for me to ask about my doubts.’

After contemplating for a moment, especially after comparing their fighting abilities, Su Lu took a deep breath and took out the diamond-shaped badge engraved with a snake swallowing its tail from his bosom: “Do you recognize this?”

“This is… the badge of the ‘Ancient Snake Society’? How did it end up with you? I remember… it should belong to Black!”

Kira’s face indeed changed greatly.

‘”Ancient Snake Society’? What kind of organization is that? Be assured, I have no major hostile intentions! As for Mr. Black, he died in the sewer. I found this badge, along with the profession information of the [Spiritual Medium] from his body.”

Su Lu, who was from a Demon Hunter family background, assured him.

To prove his innocence, he what’s more took out Black’s parchment diary papers.

Kira took them, seemed to use some method to investigate the aura on them, his expression somewhat softened: “I believe you… Black had two female apprentices, he had told me so in a previous letter, unexpectedly… he was assigned such a dangerous task!”

“You have yet to answer my question!” Su Lu said seriously.

‘”Ancient Snake Society’?” Kira’s mouth curled up into a smile of self-deprecation: “That’s a group of nutcases who worship ancient snakes. They believe that in the ancient times, it was the old serpent that ruled everything. Now, the ancient serpent is gradually awakening, and its awakening location… is in the Abyss!”

“A group of demon worshippers in disguise? Are you one of them?” Su Lu was a bit vexed, feeling like he was clashing with demons.

“I was… I left because we had a divergence of principles! However, my real identity…cannot be revealed…’”‘

“I see!”

Su Lu nodded his head, not continuing to inquire about Black’s tasks or why Kira left the organization.

Possibly, Black died because of that dangerous task.

Even if Su Lu asked, this former member of a demonic organization might not tell the truth.

‘It seems that there are quite a few secrets hidden in Nia City!’
