Zhan Shen: It’s Just a Sacrifice, How Can I Become a Villain?

15: Zhao Kongcheng’s ten years!“Congratulations, Host, for completing the mission and gaining 60 Sacrifice Points!”

“Current Sacrifice Points: 100!”

“Just right!”

Song Zhong returned to the System space.

“System, help me activate the fifth bronze coffin!”

“Hello, Host, you can only activate the fifth bronze coffin after completing the second ability extraction for the first four bronze coffins!”

It can be like this? The second extraction requires 100 Sacrifice Points.

So, to activate the fifth coffin, wouldn’t it require 400 Sacrifice Points?

Having no other choice, Song Zhong looked at the four already activated bronze coffins.

Yin Lingzi, the God of Escape, War God Xing Tian, Youzu Shentu, Demon Star Houqing!

Who should he extract?

Song Zhong looked around and it seemed Demon Star Houqing was more active last time.

He likes energetic… coffins!

I’ll extract you!

Song Zhong came to the bronze coffin and pressed his hand on it!

“Ding! Congratulations, Host, for obtaining the ability ‘Puppet’!”

“[Puppet]: The user can control the behavior of corpses or creatures with a lower Realm than themselves. The duration of control depends on the completeness of the corpse and the willpower of the creature!”

“Looks good!”

Song Zhong snapped his fingers, a bit of faint light scattered, and the night returned to calm.

Meanwhile, Yang Jin, who was at home feeling lost, fell into deep thought, thinking about the Patrick Star in the manhole cover…

Inside the hotel.

Lin Qi Ye and Zhao Kongcheng sat opposite each other.

After a brief conversation.

The terms Michael, God Ruins, God’s Proxy, Night Watcher, 136 Squad, and Ancient God Church were deeply etched into Lin Qi Ye’s mind.

So, Gods really exist in this world!

But those Gods of Daxia had never shown any trace…

And he himself actually possessed the God Ruins and became a God’s Proxy.

Although he was just a novice in the Zhan Realm.

“So! Lin Qi Ye, what is the instruction Michael gave you?”

Zhao Kongcheng asked, understanding the Gods’ purpose was very important.

“Instruction?” Lin Qi Ye shook his head, “None!”

“None? Lin Qi Ye, you lied to me once before, are you still lying to me this time?!” Zhao Kongcheng stared at Lin Qi Ye suspiciously.

Lin Qi Ye looked sincere, “I’m telling the truth, Daxia people don’t lie to Daxia people!”

“Uh! Alright! Then, join our Night Watcher, Student Lin Qi Ye!”

After speaking, Zhao Kongcheng extended his hand towards Lin Qi Ye.

His hand hung in mid-air, but Lin Qi Ye did not take it.

“If I refuse you, will I be imprisoned or brainwashed?” Lin Qi Ye felt a little uneasy.

Zhao Kongcheng’s body stiffened, “Watch fewer TV dramas! What kind of people do you take us for? The nature of the Night Watcher is similar to that of soldiers! For what happened before, just sign a confidentiality agreement.”

“So, even if I refuse you, there will be no life-threatening danger, and my family won’t be retaliated against?”

Zhao Kongcheng nodded, “Of course!”

“Then I refuse!” Lin Qi Ye did not hesitate at all.

“Why?” Zhao Kongcheng’s expression was very awkward, “Don’t you want to realize the value of your life?”

“I can’t leave! I have an Aunt and a cousin, they need my care. I don’t want my Aunt to work hard anymore, I want to earn money to support my family and pay for my brother’s education!”

Zhao Kongcheng’s gaze gradually softened as he continued to listen to Lin Qi Ye.

“You are very great, perhaps I will join you in the future, but for now, I just want to protect this family!”

Zhao Kongcheng nodded, “I understand, you can go home, just promise to keep it confidential!”

Lin Qi Ye: Σ(⊙▽⊙”a

Huh?

He couldn’t quite believe that the other party was so understanding.

Lin Qi Ye was about to leave, but couldn’t help but ask out of curiosity:

“You must have come with a mission, how will you explain yourself if you let me go back?”

“If it’s to force someone just to complete a task, I can’t do such a thing!”

Zhao Kongcheng lit a cigarette, “Lin Qi Ye, would you like to hear my story?”

Looking at the vicissitudes in the middle-aged man’s eyes, Lin Qi Ye suddenly couldn’t bear to refuse.

“I’d like to hear the details!”

“When I was young, I was similar to you. My father passed away early, and my mother worked two jobs to raise me!”

“She hoped that I would study well, come back to be a village cadre, then marry and have children, living a stable life. But I, despite her objections, went to join the army!”

“Boys, they all have a General dream since childhood!”

“Later, I learned that although my mother didn’t want me to leave, on the day she sent me off, she stood at the station until dark!”

“Later, because I was good at close-quarters combat, I was exceptionally transferred to the Night Watcher. Although my life improved, the time I spent with her also decreased.”

“On the day she passed away, I couldn’t be by her side…”

Lin Qi Ye’s heart felt poked by something.

“I envy you, Lin Qi Ye, having such a good family, and knowing the preciousness of this feeling. How I wish I had the same thoughts as you back then!”

“I only understood this truth when I came to Cangnan ten years ago!”

“Unfortunately, I can’t go back!”

After finishing a cigarette, Zhao Kongcheng stubbed it out in the ashtray.

Then he pulled a card from his pocket and put it in Lin Qi Ye’s hand.

“There’s some money inside, the password is six zeros. Your family’s current situation needs this!”

Lin Qi Ye pushed the card back, “I don’t want it!”

“I’m a Night Watcher, I’m not short on money!”

“No, I can’t accept money from a soldier!”

Lin Qi Ye’s gaze was firm, “Wouldn’t it be better to leave it for your wife and children?”

“Don’t worry, Night Watcher families are all secured, the benefits are not comparable to this amount of money!” Zhao Kongcheng said lightly.

Lin Qi Ye was speechless, he suddenly felt that this guy seemed to be showing off his wealth to him!

“Anyway, I won’t accept the money!”

Zhao Kongcheng sighed and took the card back.

“Then take this!” After speaking, he handed Lin Qi Ye an emblem.

The front of the emblem had a pattern of two crossed straight swords, the blades emitting a faint blue glow, and the background behind the swords was a starry night sky, extremely exquisitely crafted!

Below the pattern, the three small characters “Zhao Kongcheng” were engraved.

“This is?”

“This is my emblem, I’m giving it to you. It has positioning and distress signal functions.”

Zhao Kongcheng pouted, “Although I can’t take you back, I’m still responsible for your safety!”

“After all, as a God’s Proxy, the Ancient God Church will definitely come looking for you. They are a bunch of lunatics, they can do anything!”

Lin Qi Ye took the emblem and rubbed it with his finger, “Huh? There are words on the back?”

He flipped the emblem over.

A line of text appeared before his eyes.

“If the dark night finally arrives,

I shall stand before all people,

My blade pointed at the abyss,

Blood staining the firmament!”

“What magnificent spirit!” Lin Qi Ye exclaimed, “Did… you write this?”

“Of course!” Zhao Kongcheng smiled, “No, not really!”

“This is our oath, the belief of the Night Watcher!”

Zhao Kongcheng slowly explained, his face showing no trace of his previous playfulness.

Lin Qi Ye solemnly put the emblem into his pocket.

“Thank you!”

Zhao Kongcheng waved his hand, “Don’t mention it. Since that’s the case, I should leave now. I wish you a bright future!”

Lin Qi Ye sincerely said, “I wish you a future filled with achievements, General Zhao!”
