Chapter 58: Not Some Easy-To-Deal-With Super Boss

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

As Fang Ning continued eavesdropping, he felt his blood boil with fury, when suddenly a notification appeared.

[ The System has consumed first level Morality Bar, the System has consumed first level Aggro Bar. The System has activated Esoteric Skill: “Spirit Gaze”. “Spirit Gaze” is rapidly gaining power. The System has obtained “True Vision – Ultra” effect, effect duration: one hour. The System has discovered an unknown enemy. Status: currently hidden. ]

The notification shocked Fang Ning to no end, there was an enemy that could only be discovered after using both bars!

He immediately opened the System Map to check it out, and only more shock came to him!

The map not only showed two yellow indicators for the people on the beach, but it also showed a grant patch of red not too far from him!

Fang Ning was terrified; this patch of red was far bigger than any other enemy he’s met before!

The strongest opponent he had met was Bai Shiping, whom the System forced into suicide. His indicator was about as big as a wash basin. Qiao Zishan’s indicator was slightly smaller than Bai Shiping’s, while Qiao Zishan’s uncle’s indicator would be about thrice the size.

However, this indicator definitely more than thrice the size of Bai Shiping’s, it was about as big as seven or eight wash basins!

He immediately stammered, “Sir System, should we escape now?”

“Escape? Why? The fellow isn’t showing any signs of aggression, but is instead trying its best to hide itself. I’m estimating that farming this fellow would take us about three months.”

The System’s tone was uncharacteristically excited and exhilarated.

When it came to battles, the System was the true professional. Its very being was made for farming monsters, and the battles they’ve faced these past few days have proven that fact.

Fang Ning calmed himself down. It would seem that Sir System was preparing to fight this Super Boss, its voice conveying its enthusiasm. The System wasn’t afraid of the Super Boss, it was instead excited for the possibility of obtaining rare equipment.

How nice it is to be young! This was just like when Fang Ning used to stay up all night to farm a Boss. Although his character was worlds away from the Boss, he would still give his all in grinding until he could finally fight it, as long as he didn’t overdo things of course. However, with how accurate the System was in fighting and battles, overdoing it would probably not happen.

The System being so excited was understandable, but Fang Ning himself had to calm down and think of their surroundings, since you couldn’t actually revive in real life.

However, Fang Ning felt that it was quite weird, and quickly voiced his concern, “Let’s not talk about farming it, we still have some things that have yet to be settled, so we can’t afford a battle now. He’s hiding around here; those two yellow indicators are obviously the people I commissioned earlier to settle the problem. The fact that they’ve all appeared together seems like too much of a coincidence, maybe they’ve already planned this since the beginning and are trying to ambush us! Maybe all that we’ve heard just now was just acting so that we would get riled up, giving the Boss a chance to attack us!”

“I don’t understand…”

Hearing the System’s reaction, Fang Ning thought to himself, “Saying it out loud is just the same as not saying it. The System really was even worse than a normal human at aspects other than battling.”

Immediately fighting the monster would be terrible, since it would take three whole months. If that were to happen, Fang Ning would have to say goodbye to his restaurants. His mechanical puppet substitute couldn’t cook, so if the chefs visited him at home, he would definitely be made.

The System of course didn’t care for all these, all it could think of was farming monsters.

With the appearance of such a strong Boss, at least there was still some good news. One, the System still wasn’t afraid of it, and two, it still hadn’t realized that it had been discovered by the System.

They obviously couldn’t expose themselves either, so this meant that the previous plan had to be carried out as per usual.

Fang Ning then said, “Let’s go over now. We could also give those two suspicious characters a good scare.”

The System asked, “Aren’t we going to farm that Boss? It could run away.”

Fang Ning was fed-up, “It won’t be too late to farm it after we’ve settled everything. I understand that you think this fellow is probably that Elder of the Bai family that’s been in hiding for a long time. It’s true that foresighted Boss types like this don’t usually come knocking on your door to pressure you, unlike the Boss types in novels.”

“We’ve just killed five of his people in a row, so I’m sure that he wants to collect as much information on us as possible so that he can guarantee that he’ll land a fatal blow. Otherwise, I’m sure that he’ll wait until the later stages of their development to come knocking on our door, exactly like what those people just said. He won’t just let us farm him for no reason.”

“…How troublesome.”

Although Fang Ning was still interested in the effects of that “Spirits’ Confusion Array”, now that he knew that a Super Boss was lurking nearby, why would he still be in the mood to analyze the skill? Besides, the skill wouldn’t work once their True Vision was activated, so the two people in the distance would just become clowns clowning around.

Vigilante A immediately moved, appearing by the pair of men in a flash.

“Who was the ‘Gust of Wind’ that spoke with me online?”

The sinister-looking one of the two men jumped at the sudden appearance. When he recognized who had spoken, his expression changed immediately, before he stammered, “I am Gui Qi. I welcome your arrival, great hero. The ‘Gust of Wind’ that contacted you previously was this man beside me, Gui Er, my sworn Elder Brother.”

This sinister-looking man had met Vigilante A once before, which was when his spirit servant Zhu Sanmei had suddenly harassed Vigilante A, causing Fang Ning to meet a ghost for the first time.

After hearing of Vigilante A’s history, he was thankful for the cautious ways which allowed him to avoid causing trouble for Vigilante A, or he wouldn’t be alive right now. Therefore, his disdainful attitude towards Vigilante A previously wasn’t without reason.

However, now that he was face-to-face with Vigilante A himself, Gui Qi would never dare speak to him in that scornful tone from before. He knew that this Vigilante A could eradicate someone until not even their soul was left, so he wasn’t going to take that risk.

“Hmph, how sneaky and secretive, how unlike the actions of a good person. Whatever the case, as long as you’ve finished what I told you to do and have helped me bring benefit to the people of this city, I’ll turn a blind eye to you both for now.”

Unlike the sinister-looking Gui Qi, Gui Er’s face was hidden behind a white mask that was blank, giving off an eerie feeling. However, from the looks of his indicator on the map, he was someone that the System could handle in a heartbeat, so there was nothing to be afraid of.

Vigilante A’s appearance also shocked Gui Er. His Spirits’ Confusion Array could only be seen through by Hai Cheng’s Red-eyed Celestial Gaze, and yet Vigilante A did the same.

He never expected that what he heard, about Vigilante A being able to see through confusion abilities, was true. However, Gui Er was knowledgeable, he had always been called a think tank, so he knew immediately, ‘This Vigilante A is definitely not human, it must be an extraordinary creature amongst the Descended Ones.’

He felt his heart drop, but he maintained the enthusiasm in his voice as he spoke, “Oh, I apologize, great hero. To disguise ourselves, I made some decorations, but I see I didn’t manage to fool your intelligent gaze. I originally wanted my brother to welcome you, but you’ve arrived first, how embarrassing.”

If Fang Ning hadn’t heard what he said before or hadn’t discovered the Boss lurking nearby, Fang Ning would have definitely thought that this man wasn’t that bad, since he had a presence that made everyone else comfortable. Now that he compared both auras, Fang Ning couldn’t help but suspect the man’s ulterior motives.

From a certain perspective, this man was even worse than the giant rat demon Bai Shiping; although Bai Shiping was evil, he was unyielding and open about his motives, so there was no worry about stepping into a trap.

Vigilante A spoke up then, “Stop with all that nonsense. I’ve always been open and just, if it weren’t for the people of this city, I would never deal with suspicious people like you! If you have a way of controlling the giant rats, spit it out!”

Despite being berated by Vigilante A in such a way, Gui Er and Gui Qi barely flinched, and instead spoke even more politely.

“But of course, or we wouldn’t have dared to accept your money. Our specialty is controlling spirits, so as long as you pay the deposit, we’ll immediately order our spirits to delve into the underground to look for the Giant Rat King. Once we’ve managed to intimidate him, he’ll naturally pull his reins in around his giant rats, thus stopping them from destroying any more underground communication pipelines.”

Fang Ning suddenly thought of something from before, and so immediately told the System to ask on his behalf.

“I recently eliminated five giant rat demons recently, so I know that the giant rats underground are all controlled by the Bai family. You both must have quite the guts to dare provoke them, huh?”

Gui Er answered, “Haha, thank you for caring, great hero. If this happened some time ago, we wouldn’t have touched anything of the Bai family, even if somebody made us the bravest people in the world. But the Bai family has been exposed now, targeted by the Truth Department. They’ll have no choice but to retreat since Qi City falls at the end of the second-tier cities. After all, they settled here because we were nearby a previously-important highway.

“And now that they’ve retreated, they’ll definitely focus their manpower on underground bunkers; easy to fortify but hard to attack, so this place would be given up. We’re just negotiating with the local Giant Rat King, it’s not like we’re eradicating them. Not to mention that we have a mountainous support behind us, so the Bai family won’t come finding trouble with us because of such a small matter.”

Fang Ning immediately cursed inwardly upon hearing those words, ‘D*mn it! Won’t find trouble with you? You’re just trying to bluff me! Bai family’s Elder is lurking nearby and yet you speak like you’re telling the truth. Believing you would be stupid.’

After getting his answer, Fang Ning let the System continue in his stead.

“If that’s so, then deal with the matter as quickly as possible. Here’s your deposit. I want to see the results in a month. By the way, all you have to do is to ask the giant rats not to destroy any more underground communication pipelines. You don’t have to stick your hands into anything else.”

Gui Er and Gui Qi immediately nodded their heads obediently, as they watched Vigilante A materialized the giant rats’ corpses from thin air. He flung it carelessly onto the ground, kicking up dust in the process. Gui Er and Gui Qi’s eyes immediately lit up.

On one hand, their heart ached at the giant rats’ corpses being treated in such a manner. On the other hand, their hearts filled with greed. This Vigilante A was definitely a powerful person, since it could still use Space Magic at will after the descent. Not a lot of magic could actually cross dimensions. They wondered just what lavishness he enjoyed before descending into this world.

However, after comparing their respective powers, they both knew that they wouldn’t dare to snatch anything from Vigilante A even if they were ten times braver.

With their capabilities, Vigilante A’s actions were exactly the bane of their existence. Even their Spirits’ Confusion Array was seen through easily by their adversary. They had already lost a powerful card, so why would they make a move before some existence did?

They immediately thanked Vigilante A and summoned a few poltergeists to clean up the demon corpses, before keeping the corpses in a big bag.

Seeing that they were done with everything, Vigilante A took his leave, “I’ll be taking my leave now. If I find out that you’re slacking on the job or deceiving me, you both will end up just like those corpses!”

“We wouldn’t dare, you can rest assured, great hero,” answered Gui Er and Gui Qi in harmony.
