I make a contract with myself

The next day.

Sun Yan was covered in blood and looked tired.

The elves were taken back to the spiritual realm by him and were sleeping soundly.

"Uh, do you want to take a rest?" Su Lang was quite considerate.

Sun Yan shook his head, took out a pill and swallowed it to refresh himself.

"Really don't need to rest?" Su Lang was still worried.

"You have to believe in my master's craftsmanship." Sun Yan said with a bitter smile.

Although the Awakening Pill doesn't taste very good, its effect is really strong. After a while, Sun Yan became lively and energetic.

"One bottle refreshes the mind, two bottles never fatigue, three bottles leads to immortality, oh yeah!" Sun Yan began to promote the master's elixir.

"Really?" Senior Sister questioned.

"Have one."

Sun Yan smiled and gave her an awakening pill.

Senior Sister Luo really didn't believe in this evil, so she stuffed the elixir into her mouth, but couldn't swallow it at all.

“Bah, bah~~”

Senior Sister Luo retreated in defeat, hiding aside and retching.

I can’t swallow even one pill, so what’s one bottle? forget it……

Sun Yan looked at the others.

Everyone looked at me, and I looked at you, and finally they all focused on Su Lang.

It should be said that he was the most experienced person. After hearing that this thing was created by his senior sister, Su Lang decisively stayed away from Sun Yan and stayed away from the so-called awakening pill.

He seemed to have not heard the discussion just now, and looked calm: "Continue the mission."

Sun Yan followed at the back, shaking his head from side to side, seemingly on guard, but in fact he had fallen asleep.

With the Ghost Mask here, it couldn't be easier to hang up and complete tasks.

Mission goal: Get back the treasure of Battle City, the Soul Gathering Source Crystal.

This task was originally very difficult. You had to go through half of the abandoned city and avoid all kinds of spirits. After arriving at the city lord's mansion, you had to defeat the ghosts in the mansion in order to get the Soul Gathering Source Crystal.

There were many disciples who wanted to give it a try, but in the end they failed to come back.

But after completing the mission, I didn't get many mission points, so I put it on hold in Motang for a long time, and no one was willing to take it.

But this time, there is an additional task: to find out the cause of the riot by the monsters in the abandoned city.

After completion, the task points are doubled, so that it will not continue to be shelved.

As soon as Sun Yan woke up, everyone arrived at the city lord's mansion.

"Uncle, what is the strength of that ghost?" Senior Brother Cui asked on behalf of everyone.

"Sometimes it's the third grade, sometimes it's the fifth grade."

"How can it be……"

Seeing Su Lang looking at him seriously, the smile on Senior Brother Cui's face gradually disappeared.

"The ghost is about to dissipate, but due to some kind of obsession, it can always survive at the last moment of disintegration and gradually regain its original strength."

After listening to Su Lang's explanation, everyone still found it unbelievable.

However, they are here for a mission, and they only need to choose the time when the ghost is weakest, defeat it, and take away the Soul Gathering Source Crystal.

"What strength does it have now?" Senior Sister Luo asked.

Su Lang shook his head: "If you don't fight with him, you can't judge at all."

"Uncle, come on."

Everyone had high hopes for Su Lang, but he wanted to investigate the cause of the monster riot. After leaving a few words, he left.

Challenging ghosts can only be done by themselves.

Among the six, not counting Sun Yan, Senior Brother Cui is the strongest. Although he is a fourth-level elf envoy, he has a fifth-level elf and is also the only inner disciple.

The three senior sisters are all outer disciples, with varying strengths and weaknesses, and the last one is a handyman disciple.

Originally, all kinds of dirty and tiring work were usually done by the handyman disciples, who could barely do some tasks.

But it's a pity that Sun Yan did all these things, and he was happy to be free.

After Su Lang left, Senior Brother Cui took over the right to speak.

"Sun Yan..."

"Senior Brother Cui, what if that ghost is a fifth-grade soul?"

Seeing that Sun Yan had misunderstood, Brother Cui immediately couldn't laugh or cry: "If there is a fight later, you have to hide, I may not be able to take care of you."

"Oh." Sun Yan looked a little embarrassed.

He thought that Senior Brother Cui wanted him to conduct reconnaissance to find out the opponent's strength.

It turns out that I was overthinking...

Speaking of which, when Sun Yan went on a mission for the first time, he thought that there would be frequent accidents, and he might have to face a tide of beasts, or fights between fellow disciples and brothers, etc. After all, this is in line with the plot of the novel.

Who would have thought that this journey would be quite smooth, as his senior brothers and sisters cared for him so much, and there was really no intrigue at all.

Sure enough, novels are all lies. For the sake of the word "cool", many time-travelers have been misled.

Senior Brother Cui took the lead. After entering the city lord's mansion, everything was calm and nothing happened.

"Keep...go!"

Brother Cui's expression changed slightly, and before Sun Yan could enter the city lord's mansion, he asked everyone to leave.

They drove the elves very quickly, but they still managed to catch the enemy.

A strange mist rose from the ground and enveloped the City Lord's Mansion, making it impossible for people inside to get out and people outside unable to get in.

Sun Yan couldn't see the scene inside, so he could only worry.

He summoned Du, ready to rush in at any time: "Evil, can you go in?"

"Why are you going in? Since this mist can block those little guys, even if you can go in, you will only die." Evil Ghost Mask kindly advised.

"Oh, I thought ghosts had very low IQs." Sun Yan wanted to run away.

"I don't sense any malice."

"What do you mean?"

"Either the other party is too strong and does not need to show any malice, or it retains its humanity and really has no malice. It just wants to drive you out of its territory."

Sun Yan can understand it.

Just like territorial spirits, the ghost was a human in life, and perhaps he was unwilling to kill humans.

However, after all, the ghost has been dead for a long time. In the ten years since it became a ghost, it has been in the company of spirits day and night. Perhaps its behavior has become more and more like a beast, and one of the manifestations is its territorial awareness.

After about a stick of incense, the fog gradually dissipated, and Senior Brother Cui and others were also thrown out.

"You didn't...well, heal first."

The people in front of him were each more miserable than the last, with bleeding wounds everywhere on their bodies, so he stopped talking nonsense.

When everyone was almost well, Sun Yan asked about the situation inside.

"This mission is pending." Senior Brother Cui sighed.

Seeing this, Sun Yan could only lament his bad luck: "No way, I'm so unlucky."

To be able to hit Senior Brother Cui like this, the ghost should be at the fifth level, and it must be stronger than his fifth level elf.

"Going back?" Sun Yan asked.

"Wait, let me contact my uncle first." Senior Brother Cui was about to give up.

After some communication, he announced bad news.

"Two months?"

Everyone is stupid.

The uncle's investigation actually took so long, and he asked them to get rid of the ghost, otherwise it would be in vain after he completed the additional tasks.

Disciples who annoy the ancestor...

The handyman disciple was about to cry, why was he so unlucky?

"Isn't it an investigation? Why does it take so long?" Senior Sister Luo asked.

"Uncle has found the reason and plans to solve it." Senior Brother Cui was helpless.

Su Lang is very nice, but he is too serious and responsible in his work.

Obviously after he went back and reported it to the sect, someone else would solve the matter, but he insisted on doing it himself.

It doesn’t take long to go back and forth from the abandoned city to Xuanling Sect!
