I Can See Experience Points

Chapter 126: Chapter 125: Break the Limit, Golden Armor Divine Skill

In the Cleaner conference room, Roger and the others had yet to recover from the brutal and bloody scene.

Then, He Xiaotian turned around and delivered an even greater shock.

What the hell is that?

Almost the exact same question surfaced in their minds.

Not far off in the distance, a creature resembling an octopus flickered in and out of view in the night.

What was shocking was how enormous the thing was!

Its two large, lantern-like eyes were incredibly bright in the darkness, and its height was estimated to be over ten meters.

It had dozens of tentacles, each as thick as a bucket.

The densely packed suckers on them were enough to send someone with trypophobia straight to the hospital.

GULP!

Everyone in the conference room swallowed hard in unison.

This was probably the largest aberration ever encountered in Shanghai’s history!

”Which seafood restaurant left their doors unlocked and let this thing escape?”

Hearing He Xiaotian’s words, the group of people all rolled their eyes.

’Even if a seafood restaurant dared to sell it, would you dare to eat it?’

’By then, it’d be a toss-up as to which of you would be the other’s dinner!’

”Send the footage to Tang En. He might know what this thing is,” Deputy Director Roger said, his head aching. He had thought that with He Xiaotian’s help, his worries would be over.

But now this curveball had appeared out of nowhere. Could X handle it?

The key was that X was an independent operative; if he felt it was too dangerous, he could unilaterally tear up their agreement at any time.

Spiritual Energy Crystals were great and all, but they were nothing compared to one’s own life.

The large screen suddenly split in two, and Tang En reappeared on it.

”Tell your man to run. Now. That’s an Abyssal Navigator. It’s the only creature that can survive within the World-Devouring Shadow. When I was in the Netherworld, I always thought it was just a legend. I can’t believe I’m finally seeing one today.

I don’t know its specific abilities, only that if an ordinary Third Grade Martial Artist encounters one, they’ll die full of regret and become its food. I don’t know about anything stronger than that. After all, the chief in my village was only just a fledgling Third Grade.”

Roger, with his one remaining good arm, rapidly operated the monitor in front of him, then asked,

”Were those four people Third Grade Martial Artists?”

Tang En’s eyelid twitched as he watched the video of X leaping high into the air and smashing an armored, burly man into smithereens with a hammer.

This was followed by scenes of a flying hammer blowing a head apart and a head being crushed with a single hand.

”...”

’Are humans from the mortal world all this savage? Why do they seem even more brutal than the evil spirits of the Netherworld?’

If not for the last person in the video burning their Qi and Blood in a desperate, final struggle, he would have seriously suspected that these men were fake Third Grade Martial Artists.

After all, He Xiaotian’s overwhelming performance made them all look like complete weaklings.

It almost felt like, ’Hey, I could do that too.’

But if he had actually gone up against them, he probably would have been unilaterally pummeled.

”Yes. The first one to die was even stronger than our village chief.”

”Do you think the masked man in the video can deal with the Abyssal Navigator?”

Roger pressed on, desperately hoping Tang En’s answer would be—”Yes.”

”I don’t know.”

’How would a mere Second Grade Martial Artist like me know so much?’

Meanwhile, when He Xiaotian saw the so-called Abyssal Navigator, his first reaction was shock.

His second was to wonder how many Experience Points he would get for killing it.

He hadn’t forgotten that the giant crocodile at the bottom of the Pu River had given him a full fifty thousand points!!

And that was just from landing the finishing blow.

If he had killed it all by himself from start to finish, he probably would have gotten even more.

”Ahem, X, could you possibly...”

Roger’s voice rang out from the portable device on his arm.

But before he could finish, He Xiaotian cut him off and replied coldly,

”No!”

”...”

’At least let me finish talking!’

’Saying no so bluntly... don’t I, the Deputy Director of the Shanghai Cleaners, have any dignity?’

Fortunately, his head was wrapped in bandages. Otherwise, everyone in the conference room would have seen his face flush a furious red.

A rather annoyed Roger shouted,

”Will you please let me finish?”

’People are so predictable.’

He Xiaotian could guess what the guy was going to say next with his eyes closed.

It would be nothing more than asking him to give it a try and see if he could kill that giant octopus.

Of course, he wanted to make a move, but there were others who were far more desperate than he was.

If he didn’t take this opportunity to extort them again...

He Xiaotian felt he would be letting down the Spiritual Energy Crystals he had just squeezed out of Roger.

”Fifty!”

Roger didn’t get to be Deputy Director by being a fool.

Even though he knew He Xiaotian was extorting him, he had no choice but to hold his nose and accept it.

”Eighty!”

On the screen, He Xiaotian remained unmoved.

GRIND...

Roger looked as if he was about to grind his teeth to dust. Steeling himself, he blurted out,

”One hundred!”

”Look.”

He Xiaotian didn’t answer directly. Instead, he pointed at the octopus monster that was already climbing a building and said flatly,

”Two hundred! That’s everything I have. Any more and I’ll have to sell my body!”

”???”

Cold sweat beaded on the foreheads of everyone in the conference room.

Roger’s eyes swept across them as he said angrily, ”What are you all thinking? I meant selling myself for experiments at the energy research lab, not selling myself the way you’re imagining!”

”I’ll put in twenty!”

”I’ll put in fifteen!”

The group understood perfectly. Roger’s words weren’t just for He Xiaotian; they were for them too.

’The Deputy Director is already in this state. As members of the organization, how can you not contribute something?’

’What’s wrong with bleeding a little for the masses?’

In the end, the number of Spiritual Energy Crystals reached three hundred and eighty.

Including the previous deal with Roger, He Xiaotian would be able to get five hundred Spiritual Energy Crystals by dawn.

The furious group cursed him in their hearts. ’X, my ass!’

’You should change your name to Vampire, Money-grubber, or King of Extortion!!’

One of the mid-level cadres in charge of archives was already planning to update He Xiaotian’s file and add all these new titles.

”Find me the nearest building that’s over a hundred meters tall.”

He Xiaotian was very satisfied with the amount ’crowdfunded’ by the Cleaners and immediately began giving orders.

”?!”

Everyone who heard him was completely baffled.

’Weren’t we just talking about how to deal with the Abyssal Navigator?’

’How did the topic suddenly jump to tall buildings?!’

”Search.”

Roger didn’t waste any words, nor did he ask any questions.

He believed that for the sake of the Spiritual Energy Crystals, X, with his greedy and miserly personality, would give it his all.

He Xiaotian, meanwhile, went to find his hammers. He soon found the pair amidst a pile of minced meat.

It seemed the Martial Artist from the Gate of Greed had died a rather miserable death.

Picking up the hammers, he shifted his gaze to his Experience Points.
