Ye Tianyu, who was busy, naturally didn’t know what Li Qingqing was thinking. Of course, he didn’t have the time to pay attention to these things.
That was because it was time to reap his harvest!
Magical crystals, materials, equipment…
The Skeleton Guards and the Skeleton Leader that were killed dropped many items. The ground was littered with countless items that were glowing!
Among these items, Ye Tianyu also found a rare item dropped by a skeleton zombie.
However, he did not check them one by one. He kept them all in his backpack because he had more important things to do.
He glanced at the shattered corpses and snapped his fingers, unable to conceal the excitement in his voice.
“Come out!”
Ding!
[Demon soul detected, currently being absorbed…]
[Beep! Soul Absorption successful!]
[Beep! Soul Absorption successful!]
[Beep! Soul Absorption successful!]
…
Obtained soldiers:
[Elite Warrior—Grade C] x 35 (Transformed from Skeleton Guard)
[Advanced Warrior—Grade B] x 1 (Transformed from Skeleton Leader)
[Skill: Soul Absorption Level 1] (193/200)
[Remarks: Level of exclusive skill can be used upgraded with increased number of usage. Currently used for 193 times. The higher the skill level, the shorter the time taken to use it and the higher the success rate on the target!]
…
After a few minutes, all the souls that were killed were absorbed!
Under Li Qingqing’s shocked gaze.
One dark soul after another crawled up from the ground and walked towards Ye Tianyu.
After the demonic creatures turned into soldiers, they all turned black. The broken swords in their hands also became brand new. The most obvious thing was that their auras had become stronger.
Although they were still at their original grades, if they were to fight with their original selves, they would definitely be able to win.
“Not bad. With these soldiers, my capability has increased significantly!”
Ye Tianyu looked at these soldiers and nodded in satisfaction.
The more trump cards he had, the better!
Previously, he had obtained over a hundred summoned soldiers, all of whom were low-level demonic creatures.
To Ye Tianyu, he still lacked a group of high-quality soldiers. Now that these elite soldiers had appeared, it made up for his shortcomings.
His thought was very simple. While the quantity of soldiers could not be lacking, the quality also had to be considered with importance.
This time, he had obtained a total of 35 Elite Warriors and one Advanced Warrior.
In the previous battle, seven soldiers had been converted, and some of them had been killed by the skeleton leader. There were only three remained.
However, he had gained a lot this time.
Ye Tianyu was especially excited when he saw that the skeleton leader with the additional skill had become his advanced warrior.
After the skeleton leader had transformed, it had undergone many changes!
Its originally tall body had grown even larger. It held a saber and a sword in each hand as it stood respectfully at the front of all the summoned soldiers.
The black cloak behind it flapped up and down, making it look like an awe-inspiring general!
Only one word could describe it – cool!
Only after all the soldiers had been transformed did Ye Tianyu notice Li Qingqing slowly walking over.
He did not know if it was an illusion, but he felt that the other party was looking at him strangely.
That feeling was very complicated and difficult to describe!
This made Ye Tianyu a little troubled.
He knew that he had to find a suitable excuse for his performance just now. After all, in the eyes of others, he was only a Grade E Summoner. It was impossible for him to possess such abilities.
However, Ye Tianyu did not regret it!
The motto of his life was that he would never regret what he had done, because it would only add to his troubles without any benefits.
Moreover, he was a living person. As long as he existed in this world, it was impossible for him to hide his capabilities.
Therefore, it was only a matter of time before people found out about his ability!
As long as he didn’t expose his ability to enter the hidden dungeon and the secret of the Dark Magic Summoner, it wasn’t a problem to let others know.
Although that would still attract the attention of some mutants, it would not be as shocking!
“Oh right, there was a mistake when I awakened my Esper abilities. Actually, I am an advanced Summoner. Anyway, there are similar cases in the Mutant Association!”
Ye Tianyu quickly found an excuse for himself.
Although he didn’t want to lie, he had to do it for his own safety and to avoid unnecessary trouble.
Just as he was about to explain, Li Qingqing suddenly spoke excitedly.
“Are you a low-key advanced Summoner?”
“Hmm? What low-key advanced Summoner?”
Ye Tianyu was stunned for a few seconds. Looking at the agitated Li Qingqing, he couldn’t wrap his head around it.
Shouldn’t she be curious about his own capability?
He could understand her shock, but what was the meaning of this excited look?
Seeing that Ye Tianyu didn’t say anything, Li Qingqing already had a conclusion in her heart and she said proudly.
“I guess you didn’t show your full capability during the Esper Ability Test. You just wanted to keep a low profile. Am I right?”
“Capable people are always so humble. That’s called pretending to be a pig to eat a tiger… That’s what I read.”
When Ye Tianyu heard Li Qingqing’s analysis, his expression became even stranger.
How did the other party know about the reason that he had just thought of?
If he didn’t know Li Qingqing’s Esper ability, he would have suspected that she had the ability to hear the thoughts of others.
“By the way, Ye Tianyu, the scene of you summoning soldiers to kill the demonic creature was simply too cool! What is the grade of your real capability… I’ve never seen such a powerful Summoner…”
Before she could finish, Li Qingqing suddenly realized something and quickly covered her mouth.
“Hehe! Don’t worry, I’ll keep it a secret for you!”
Ye Tianyu heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this.
“Thank you!”
Just when he thought this matter was over, Li Qingqing shook her head.
“It’s fine to keep it a secret for you, but have you ever heard a very philosophical sentence?”
“What is it?” Ye Tianyu was puzzled.
Even though he didn’t understand what she meant, his intuition told him that Li Qingqing wasn’t just asking him questions.
Sure enough, in the next moment, Li Qingqing put on a thoughtful expression and said.
“A great philosopher once said that only when the strong help the weak, will there be additional value in life!”
“So?” Ye Tianyu frowned.
“That’s why, since you’re so powerful, can you do me a few small favors?”
“And they aren’t that difficult for you, is that okay?” Li Qingqing didn’t hide the eagerness in her eyes.
Seeing that the other party didn’t seem to be joking, Ye Tianyu was speechless.
However, it was good that the other party had misunderstood. At least, she would be silent for a while.
It would be fine even if she accidentally revealed it in the future. After all, this did not involve the ultimate secret. Instead, it was a good cover for him.
Furthermore, if he revealed his grade to Li Qingqing, it would be a important foreshadowing – that would be the Mutant Association assessment in the near future.
At that time, on behalf of the government, the Mutant Association would conduct an investigation on all the mutants.
In order to prevent special demonic creatures or other races from infiltrating the human population, they would even collect information about mutants to analyze.
By planting a foreshadowing through Li Qingqing or someone else, he could avoid some trouble.
Not only could he hide his trump card, he could also save himself the trouble of being investigated.
This was simply a good plan to kill two birds with one stone!
