Fairy Nine Tails: My skills can be added

Feel sorry……

The weather has turned cold recently and I caught a cold.

Halfway through writing, I really had a headache and asked for a day off.

(Non-text part below)

Due to the reason of concealing his whereabouts, Su Fan moved at a slow speed, but Mida Village itself was only a small village, so it didn't take long for him to arrive at the place where the bell rang.

Here is the large square in the center of the village.

In its center, there is a high platform built of stone, on which is placed a large iron bell with a height of two meters.

At this time, densely packed villagers were kneeling around the iron bell platform.

They clasped their hands together and prayed silently with longing faces, led by an old man on the high platform.

No one said a word. Even if a few people found Su Fan, they did not react and continued to kneel down and pray.

It seems that prayer is a very important thing to them.

Standing under the eaves, Su Fan waited quietly.

About half an hour later, the old man on the high platform finished his prayer first. He raised his head and raised his hand to signal the young people beside him.

The young man understood immediately, stood up from the ground, walked to the big iron clock, and struck three times.

"When - when - when -"

Hearing the bell, the villagers put down their hands and stopped praying.

They stood up silently, with contented smiles on their sallow and thin faces. Without any conversation, they left the square in twos and threes.

After a while, except for the old man and the young man on the high platform, there was no one here.

With a subtle sigh, the old man slowly walked down the platform with the support of the young man.

Seeing this, Su Fan walked out from under the eaves and walked towards the old man and the young man.

Su Fan's appearance, especially the iron gun he carried behind his back, made the young people beside the old man a little nervous. They subconsciously tensed their muscles, as if they were ready to attack at any time.

But the old man was very calm.

A faint smile appeared on his dark and wrinkled face, and he said slowly: "My dear adventurer, I wonder what brings you here?"

"As you can see, this is just a poor little village and doesn't have what you want."

"What do you want?" Su Fan shook his head and did not explore this issue. Instead, he took out the [Entrustment from the Chief of Mida Village] from his arms, handed it over, and said: "I came from the unknown barren mountain. A monster got this thing in his hands, so he came here to look for the village chief."

The old man took the letter tremblingly, opened it, and after confirming that it was his own handwriting, he sighed, and the wrinkles on his face seemed to be a little deeper.

He smiled bitterly: "I'm going to make you laugh. I am the village chief here. You can just call me Old Brie. This is my grandson, Aaron Brie, a trainee knight."

At the end of the sentence, Old Bree showed pride. For him, having a grandson who is a trainee knight is the greatest pride in his life.

Then, he seemed to remember something, and the smile on his face gradually faded.

With a heavy sigh, Old Brie continued: "As you know, I have entrusted this commission to an adventurer, but, alas..."

Having said this, he showed gratitude and bowed slightly to Su Fan: "Mr. Adventurer, thank you very much for helping the village solve this problem. We will give you the entrusted reward later."

"By the way, could you please tell me what the monster you call looks like?"

Facing the old man's inquiry, Su Fan did not speak, but took out a piece of black cloth from his arms and threw it in front of them.

The black cloth fell to the ground and unfolded, revealing the items inside.

It was a dry, pale finger with black nails.

"This……"

Old Brie was startled by the thing in the cloth ball. He seemed to know this thing.

After a while, he regained his composure and looked at Su Fan with more respect.

"This is a wandering spirit..." Old Bree said, "a cursed monster."

For a moment, both Bree Sr. and his grandson Aaron Bree fell silent.

They knew very well what the appearance of wandering souls meant.

On the contrary, Su Fan was puzzled.

He asked directly: "Is there anything wrong with this monster?"

"You don't know?" Old Bu Li looked puzzled, as if it was inconceivable that Su Fan would ask such a thing that everyone knew.

This made Su Fan feel shocked and knew that he had asked the wrong question.

But the words had already been spoken, and it would be useless to regret them. He simply followed the words and said: "I have traveled all the way from the far eastern country of Hualong to this place, and I don't know what happened here."

"That's it..." Old Brie looked at Su Fan's black hair and dark eyes. He was indeed different from the people here, and then he nodded clearly.

He explained bitterly: "I really envy you, people from the Eastern countries."

"About a year ago, resurrected dead began to appear in various places. They had different identities during their lifetimes, including merchants, soldiers, servants, and even nobles."

"No one knows why they crawled out of the ground. They only know that these monsters appear as non-living beings. They are unconscious and confused. They only instinctively kill the living. It seems that this is their only goal."

"Although people were indeed frightened by this monster at first, after all, this was the first time people saw undead-like creatures."

"But after the kingdom sent the knights to attack them, people unexpectedly discovered that these monsters were not as scary as they thought."

"Although they are powerful, no two ordinary strong men can compare with them, and their bodies are so strong that ordinary weapons cannot even pierce their muscles. However, in front of the Kingdom Knights, they were swept away."

"Just when the kingdom is proud of the strength of the Knights, little does it know that the real disaster has just begun."

Speaking of this, Old Brie's eyes showed unspeakable fear: "The death of the monsters is far from the end."

"Where monsters appear, people will be infected with a strange disease. They will gradually lose their minds, become bloodthirsty, and have a desire to attack."

"All those who fell ill were taken away by the kingdom, and no one could see them again."

"The kingdom's envoys say to the outside world that these people who are sick are cursed by God."

"If you want to suppress this curse, you can only worship regularly at 6 o'clock every Sunday morning and pray to the great God of Light."

"In the beginning, people did not believe, until all the people in the village who did not pray became cursed..."

"However, even praying to the God of Light and receiving God's blessings cannot completely ward off this curse."

"The only way to get rid of the curse is to become an 'Immortal'. As long as there is an 'Immortal' in the village, under his protection, the entire village will never be affected by the curse again."

"Then, how do you become an immortal?" Su Fan, who was listening quietly, suddenly interrupted and asked.

Chapter 7: The Nameless Ring

Old Bree said with longing: "The immortals are those who have eternal life! Only the "devotees" who have the highest faith in God will have the opportunity to go to the national capital 'Morris City' to participate in the great 'immortality ceremony' '."

"Only those who stand out in the 'Eternal Life Ceremony' are the 'Eternal Life Ones'."

"Eternal life ritual, immortal person..." Su Fan chewed these two words carefully.

The name of this world is [Dark Soul (Gift of Immortality)], and the main mission is [Obtaining the "Proof of Immortality"]. So, what is the difference between the so-called "eternal life" and "immortality"?

This question came to mind, but the information available now was too little to speculate. Su Fan kept it in mind for the time being, looked at Old Brie and asked: "The most devout believer, isn't this difficult to identify?"

Facing Su Fan's question, Old Brie whispered: "Every March and September 15th, envoys from the royal capital will go to each village to select the most devout and brave believers in the village."

"Today is already March 14th..."

"The most pious, the most courageous..." Su Fan thought about what Old Brie said, and then raised his head with a smile on his face: "I wonder if the village chief can allow me to join Mida Village and become one of its members?"

"It's a great honor." Old Brie lowered his head so that no one could see his expression clearly, "Mr. Adventurer, may I ask your surname?"

"Just call me Ye Hua."

"Okay, Master Ye Hua. Please take a short rest in the humble residence tonight."

Old Brie raised his head again, a smile on his wrinkled face

Aaron Brie, on the other hand, bowed his head and remained silent throughout.

……

Late at night, village chief's hut, second floor.

Su Fan looked up at the sky and marveled.

Originally, he thought that there was no difference between day and night in the dark soul world.

However, what is the difference between the gray day and the night?

Su Fan leaned against the window, looking at the ring in his hand with the faint light of the candlelight.

This was the commission reward that Old Brie asked his grandson to deliver after dinner.

The ring is wrapped in precious fabric and placed in a nanmu box, which is enough to show the owner's cherishment of it.

Su Fan was very satisfied with this reward.

Price: 1000 Paradise Coins

……

Su Fan looked calmly at the black iron ring engraved with simple patterns in his hand.

If one day you find pie falling from the sky, please don't be too happy too early.All gains have already been marked with a hidden price.

How could he get this precious ring just by helping the village hunt down a wandering soul?

The appearance of the ring was not accidental, but a tacit deal between Su Fan and Lao Brie.

From the moment he accepted the ring, it meant that he needed to go to Morris City instead of Aaron Burry, who was supposed to participate in the "Immortality Ceremony."

As for the so-called most devout believers?

That's just deceiving the ignorant villagers.

The kingdom needs to draw a big pie for the people to avoid large-scale riots.Except for a few ordinary villagers who were selected under pretense, the vast majority of those who were actually selected to participate in the "Eternal Life Ceremony" had already secretly decided that they would be the most powerful person in each village.

The most pious and brave are the criteria for the Kingdom's envoys to select "devotees", and the proportion of the latter is far greater than the former.

Is the "Eternal Life Ceremony" really what everyone yearns for?

Not necessarily, at least Old Bree doesn't want his grandson to attend.

The "Eternal Life Ceremony" is said to be eternal life, but how many people have truly become "immortals"?

Where do the many devout believers in the Kingdom who fail to pass the "Eternal Life Ceremony" go in the end?

No one knows, it's like the world has evaporated.

This kind of mortality rate is far more terrifying than that on the battlefield, almost non-existent.

Therefore, this transaction occurred.

So afraid that Su Fan would regret it, Lao Brie took out the most precious item in his hand.

For him now, nothing is more important than his grandson's safety.

For Su Fan, what exactly Lao Brie planned was less important. His purpose from the beginning was to participate in the "Eternal Life Ceremony" and obtain the "Certificate of Immortality."

Getting the [Nameless Ring] was an unexpected surprise, but even if he didn't, Su Fan would still go to King Morris City.

He has not forgotten that if he fails to complete the main mission within three days, the price will be forced obliteration.

He didn't want to experience for himself what it felt like.

……

The next day, in the yard in front of the village chief's hut.

Soufan and Aaron Brie stood opposite each other.

At this time, Aaron was different from when he first met, wearing linen clothes. He was now wearing soft leather armor, holding a small round wooden shield with an iron edge in his left hand, and holding a knight's sword in his right hand, assuming a fighting posture.

As for why such a scene occurs?

Of course it was because of Su Fan's request for a competition.

Before heading to King Morris City, he was ready to test his accurate force value in this world.

As a true trainee knight, Aaron Brie is undoubtedly a good experimental target. How could Su Fan let him go?

Old Brie and Aaron Brie could not refuse Su Fan's request, so this competition began.

Old Bree stood at the edge of the yard, acting as referee for the contest between the two.

To be honest, he was very curious about Su Fan's strength.

In the kingdom's propaganda, wandering souls are not monsters that are difficult to defeat, but that is for the powerful knights of the kingdom.

You know, the most ordinary soldier in the Kingdom Knights is also a powerful official knight.

The so-called formal knights are powerful beings above the apprentice knights. Their force is powerful enough to fight against three apprentice knights at the same time and have a high probability of defeating them.

To ordinary people, wandering monsters are still an invincible and terrifying existence.
