Lord Of The People: I Recruited A Mutant Succubus From The Start Chapter 8 - Emotional Impact! Comprehension of skills!

Chapter 8: Chapter 8: Emotional Impact! Comprehension of skills!

Translator: Zayn_ 

No one had expected Ren Qi to actually charge in front of the succubus that was about to be attacked.

In most people’s understanding, only the soldiers would block a spear for their master. How could a master block a spear for a soldier?

“What exactly is going on? Could it be that senior Ren Qi has given up on obtaining the shadow stone?”

“Yeah, even if the soldier was killed and the mission failed, getting the shadow stone would still raise his score by quite a bit.”

“Could it be that senior Ren Qi is trying to protect this succubus? After all, the examinee won’t die in the Secret Mirror.”

“That can’t be right. It’s just a succubus. It’s definitely not as important as getting the shadow stone to raise your score. Isn’t this like picking a sesame but throwing away a watermelon?”

Ren Qi did not know about the discussions in the outside world. He only thought for a short while before he made a decision.

Save Elise!

Because this was the only hope for clearing the stage!

The succubus’ main attribute was agility. It was very fast, but it was extremely fragile. Although a level 1 succubus had an adult appearance, it was still a minor. The Spider King’s attack would definitely kill it.

However, Ren Qi was already 18 years old. He was considered an adult. In addition to his body training and the small s.h.i.+eld that the examinees were equipped with, his defense was at least far superior to Elise’s.

Therefore, it was the best choice for him to block this attack and let Elise go to the shadow stone.

He quickly retreated to Elise. Ren Qi raised the small s.h.i.+eld in front of him and pushed Elise out.

“Go! Go get the shadow stone!”

Elise did not know that this was a test. She was stunned when she saw Ren Qi push her out.

With a loyalty level of 100, she was ready to sacrifice her life for her master at any time. However, she did not expect her master to push her out in order to save her.

A different kind of emotion instantly infected Elise’s body, causing her bewitching eyes to become moist.

“Master!”

Elise shouted. She did not know whether she should go back to save her master or listen to her master’s order to get the shadow stone.

Bang!

In a split second, Ren Qi was struck by a single strike. A tremendous force instantly struck his body, causing him to fly backwards, leaving a mark on the ground.

Pu!

Ren Qi opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood. He felt as if his body was about to fall apart. It was as if his four limbs did not belong to him.

Without caring about his injuries, Ren Qi shouted at Elise with blood in his mouth, “Go get the shadow stone!”

At this moment, the berserk Spider King directly stuck its head out, opened its stinky mouthpart and bit at Ren Qi.

Elise was still some distance away from the shadow stone, but the Spider King was able to bite Ren Qi in half immediately.

Countless sighs instantly rose on the field!

“Sigh, what a pity. Although Senior Ren Qi was able to withstand the Spider King’s attack inconceivably, he definitely wouldn’t be able to handle it this time.”

“As long as his life is in danger, the Secret Mirror will teleport the examinee out. At that time, the a.s.sessment will be over.”

“But now, it seems like a dream. In the Nightmare-level a.s.sessment, he used a tier 3 succubus to hold on until the end. I want to wors.h.i.+p senior Ren Qi.”

Just as everyone thought that Ren Qi had reached his end, a pink light flashed from Elise’s body.

Her gaze became extremely determined. The inexplicable emotions in her body seemed to have affected her entire body, causing her to undergo some changes.

A pink shadow appeared under her feet, and then her body disappeared.

When she reappeared, Elise had already arrived in front of the throne. Her slender palm tightly gripped the shadow stone on the throne.

At this moment, the Spider King’s mouth was about to close. Ren Qi could feel the eerie cold feeling of its sharp teeth about to stab into his body.

Suddenly!

The Spider King’s body instantly stiffened. It was as if it had been immobilized by a spell and remained motionless.

“F*ck… F*ck! Look, that succubus got the shadow stone. Senior Ren Qi has cleared the level!”

A sharp scream sounded, causing the people who had already s.h.i.+fted their gazes away to look at Ren Qi’s screen once again.

Looking at the shadow stone in Elise’s hand and the motionless Ren Qi, everyone was stunned.

“What’s going on? I only glanced away for a moment. How did she get the shadow stone?”

“Wasn’t that succubus still some distance away from the shadow stone? How did she get the shadow stone directly?”

“No, what’s going on now? Does that succubus getting the shadow stone mean that senior Ren Qi has successfully pa.s.sed the a.s.sessment? He pa.s.sed the Nightmare-level a.s.sessment?”

Everyone was in a daze. It was hard to imagine this result.

A message appeared in Ren Qi’s mind through the Secret Mirror.

[ Elise has activated her potential and comprehended the skill ‘Phantom’ because of your rescue. ]

[ Elise ]

[ Mutated Succubus ]

[ Tier: 3]

[ Level: 1]

[ Skill: [Phantom]: Instantly moves forward 100 meters, leaving a shadow on the spot. Recovery time: 1 Hour. ]

Ren Qi was stunned. He did not expect Elise to have comprehended a skill.

Logically speaking, the soldiers would only have a certain chance to comprehend a skill after leveling up, and the chance was extremely low.

He did not expect Elise to directly comprehend a skill in a desperate situation.

After all, this was not a game, not a pile of data. The emotional impact caused Elise to comprehend a skill ahead of time.

Ren Qi had thought that he was going to fail just now, but he didn’t expect such a pleasant surprise.

“Oh my G.o.d, Senior Ren Qi really cleared the Nightmare a.s.sessment, and his speed is the fastest in the entire school!”

“With this speed, coupled with the Nightmare level difficulty, he should be able to become one of the top rankers in Jiangnan, right?”

“What top ranker in Jiangnan? Just based on Brother Ren’s control, he should be able to enter the top three in the entire country, right?”

“Be more confident. Brother Ren will probably be the top scorer!”

Ren Qi’s homeroom teacher, Li Dongyang, immediately stood up in excitement. With the difficulty of the Nightmare level and the speed at which he cleared the level, Ren Qi definitely had the chance to become the top scorer!

This was the top scorer! Ever since Qingyun was founded, the highest rank that had been achieved by a student was only the third place in Jiangnan. If the top scorer appeared this time, what would happen then?

The princ.i.p.al could not hold it in any longer, and his expression became extremely excited.

Every year, the top scorer would be remembered by the entire country, but no one would remember the second place.

If Ren Qi really became the top scorer, it would be the glory of the entire school.

Moreover, the country would subsidize the top scorer’s school. It could be said that if one person attained the Dao, even their chickens and dogs would reach the heavens. Qingyun would also be remembered in history.

Just as everyone was getting excited, beams of teleportation light rose one after another, and many examinees were teleported out.

Each of them was covered in dust and dirt, and their faces were filled with defeat.

These people had all failed to clear the stage. Many of their troops had lost their lives in the Secret Mirror, and their expressions were very dejected.

Another beam of light rose, and Ren Qi appeared on the field, covered in blood.

In his hand, he held the shadow stone tightly!
