My Job Is Quite Unique Chapter 135

Chapter 135 [Anti-Elementalist] Stone Slab?

Moreover, it can only function when both the main occupation rank and level are identical. When advancing to the next rank, it will consume more resources and time.

“The abilities gained sound powerful, but they are absolutely not worth such a huge cost,” Sang Hanhai shook his head repeatedly. “And this isn’t just a requirement for taking the job; it must be maintained even after taking it.”

“Su Chen, don’t ask for trouble,” Sang Hanhai said, seeing Su Chen’s eyes light up, and his brows involuntarily twitched.

If Chong Jingtian knew that he had been tricked into losing his Mo Cui seeds, he would probably be torn apart alive.

“Old Sang, I want to research it…” Su Chen’s expression became serious. The difference between his spirit and physique talents was not significant; if converted to specific data, it would definitely be less than 50%, so forcibly balancing the difference would not be too great.

Moreover, it indirectly augmented his physique talent.

And he had always intended to pursue dual professions to the end, where consistent rank and level were also necessary.

These requirements were irrelevant to him, but after taking the job, his strength would be significantly boosted.

The mutual conversion of stamina and mental power would be incredibly helpful to him, who was accustomed to burst damage and was proficient in both attack methods.

Therefore, he didn’t even plan to wait for the translation of [Armored Bone Bearer]; he wanted to get it first.

“Research… you…” Sang Hanhai couldn’t help but look at Qin Qiyuan. “You caused this, you fix it for me.”

“Because of its severe limitations, this profession is only rated A-rank. Do you want to buy it?” Qin Qiyuan asked.

“Old Qin!” Sang Hanhai shouted.

“He can try,” Qin Qiyuan said. “His foundation is exceptional, and balanced talents are not a weakening; it’s like two bottles of water, one high and one low, where the higher one flows to the lower.”

“It’s not as big a loss as imagined.”

“Old Sang, I’ve made up my mind,” Su Chen also said.

Sang Hanhai was frustrated. Since Su Chen already knew about this profession, there were countless ways for him to acquire it, and he couldn’t stop him.

“How much would it cost to buy it?” Su Chen asked.

Jin Yunxuan said, “An A-rank profession, as a core seed of the Tribunal, would cost fifty million gold for exclusive use…”

“Uh…” Su Chen thought for a moment. “Can I trade a profession for it?”

“Yes,” Qin Qiyuan nodded. “What level of profession is it? I’ll give it a rating.”

“Tier 2 Top-tier, what rank would that be?” Su Chen asked tentatively.

“Top-tier?” Sang Hanhai suddenly leaned in. “Top-tier professions, below Tier 3, are all A-rank.”

“That precious?” Su Chen couldn’t help but be surprised.

“The number of top-tier professions is not large, and the lower the tier, the easier it is to be employed, which leads to immeasurable benefits in the future…” Sang Hanhai stared at him. “I knew you were a treasure trove. How did Xia Hanshi get so many top-tier professions?”

Su Chen decided to reveal [Wind and Thunder Envoy]. Spiritual professions are inherently more valuable, so it’s better to keep it hidden for now.

Qin Qiyuan sent away the eagerly watching Jin Yunxuan, but he couldn’t do anything about Sang Hanhai, so he had to let him stay as well and listen to Su Chen narrate the job requirements.

“…First…”

“This profession, it seems to be the superior profession of [Riftwalker Warrior], right?” After hearing everything, Sang Hanhai suddenly realized something.

“The Tier 1 top-tier profession from Southwind City a while ago was also from you.”

“Yes…” Su Chen nodded. “Teacher Yuan Chenyang specifically granted it to me.”

“Yuan Chenyang?” Sang Hanhai chuckled. “Old Qin, tell him.”

Qin Qiyuan nodded, and just as he was about to speak, he glanced at Sang Hanhai again, and said displeasedly, “If you want to listen, you’ll have to pay an A-rank profession.”

Sang Hanhai’s face darkened, and he left reluctantly.

Qin Qiyuan cleared his throat and then narrated: “…”

[Discovered special profession – Anti-elementalist. Can be inducted upon completion of job requirements.]

[Job Requirement One: Both physique and spirit professions must be no lower than Tier 3 and simultaneously be top-tier professions.]

[Job Requirement Two: Exhaust stamina and mental power to their limits, no less than one thousand times.]

[Job Requirement Three: Fuse fragments of the Void Star.]

The three job conditions didn’t seem too difficult.

After all, the requirements for manifesting abilities after taking this profession were even more stringent.

[The Anti-elementalist, overwhelmed by the Red Flame Thunder God, decided to weaken the job requirements.]

[Job Requirement Two: The number of times stamina and mental power need to be exhausted to their limits is reduced to one hundred times.]

The influence of the Great Venerable worked, and Su Chen was already accustomed to it.

“The difficulty of induction is not low. To exhaust mental power and physical strength to their limits and then recover will take at least one or two days each time, so it adds up to three years,” Qin Qiyuan warned, adding:

“Also, the Void Star is not easy to find. Don’t waste too much time.”

After Qin Qiyuan finished speaking, he called Sang Hanhai in.

Old Sang said grumpily, “When Chong Jingtian comes calling, I won’t help you defend against him.”

“I know the consequences, I know the difficulty. This is my own choice, and you two don’t need to take responsibility,” Su Chen said.

“Alas, youth is truly wonderful,” Sang Hanhai sighed with emotion.

Having agreed with Qin Qiyuan, Su Chen would visit here occasionally to help translate this Holy Word Stone in the coming period.

As he walked downstairs with Sang Hanhai, Su Chen asked about something he hadn’t finished asking earlier: “Old Sang, I heard that this defensive spirit ring was also built by Old Pu?”

“For such a huge project, my senior brother was only the person in charge.” Sang Hanhai looked suspicious. “You, little fellow, why are you so curious about my senior brother? What task did Xia Hanshi give you?”

“No,” Su Chen shook his head, explaining, “It’s just that last time when you went to the Tribunal, I heard Ming Lin mention it. This defensive spirit ring can actually repel mutated species from a thousand miles away. Why isn’t it popularized?”

“In that case, the lower-tier cities wouldn’t have to expend so many resources to organize defenses in the outer regions.”

What he said was reasonable, and Sang Hanhai didn’t delve deeper, as it wasn’t a big secret.

“It can’t be promoted. Actually, what’s important isn’t the spirit ring, but what’s on it.” Sang Hanhai leaned in mysteriously and whispered.

Su Chen cooperatively displayed a curious expression, “What’s on it?”

“It’s symbols taken from a stone tablet, also from that ruin,” Sang Hanhai’s eyes flickered, but he didn’t hide it.

Stone slab!

Su Chen finally got accurate information, but it didn’t seem to be the Holy Word Stone. Moreover, when Meng Qi devoured Chu Xuan, those faceless ghost followers also seemed to have mentioned a stone slab. Could it be the same thing?

He suppressed his excitement and asked, “Can I see it?”

“You?” Sang Hanhai wasn’t surprised by Su Chen’s idea. He pointed to his grayish-white eyeball: “See? I just took a glance, and at that time, I was already a Tier 4 professional.”

“Before Tier 4, you don’t even have the right to look.”

Tier 4, again Tier 4… Su Chen thought, Xia Hanshi also said at the time, not yet Tier 4… no need to think about saving someone for him.

“Don’t worry about it so much. Honestly, improving your profession’s mastery and advancing step by step is what you should be doing now,” Sang Hanhai patted his shoulder. “I have things to do, so I won’t see you off.”

He headed deeper into the Translation Department, and Su Chen stood there for a long time, watching Sang Hanhai disappear before leaving.

…

Sang Hanhai made his way to a small wooden house deep within the Translation Department. Upon seeing Pu Zhenghong, his first words were, “It’s confirmed. This is the third time. Su Chen can probably resonate with all the Holy Word Stones.”

Pu Zhenghong was still carving on the blank Holy Word Stone. He paused at the words, then after a moment of silence, said, “Has he ever expressed curiosity about the Divine Language?”

“Uh…” Sang Hanhai paused, a hint of awkwardness on his face: “He seems to be purely curious about the professions recorded on the Holy Word Stone. As for the Divine Language… he hasn’t mentioned a word.”

Pu Zhenghong furrowed his brows. “He’s not curious why he resonates, only curious about professions. What has Xia Hanshi taught this person?”

“However, he seems quite curious about you, asking many questions, and even about the defensive spirit ring,” Sang Hanhai added, secretly thinking to himself.

It’s still uncertain if what’s on the Holy Word Stone is the so-called Divine Language. My senior brother is truly a bit obsessed.

But it’s understandable, just like his teacher, who desperately wants to prove his theories are correct.

“You told him about the stone slab?” Pu Zhenghong’s tone grew colder. “You still can’t forget it.”

“Alas, Senior Brother,” Sang Hanhai sighed, “Who can forget? Can you forget?”

“The missing stone tablet records, most likely, the profession that group of people are looking for. Even the Royal Court covets it, and a line of symbols can deter mutated species.”

“Royal Court…” Pu Zhenghong remained silent, while Sang Hanhai continued, “Yuandu has been looking for an opportunity, and they seem to know more. They have been cultivating highly talented individuals, hoping to gain recognition from that relic.”

“We’re already far behind. Their visit this time, while they say it’s for an explanation, the people who come are probably not friendly.”

“Su Chen’s appearance might be our opportunity. Not to mention anything else, if we can completely decipher the stone tablet, the other three cities will probably have no choice but to submit.”

“Recognition…” Pu Zhenghong shook his head. “How can it be that easy? Professions at that level have their own divinity. To gain approval, talent alone is far from enough.”

Pu Zhenghong didn’t pick up on Sang Hanhai’s words, but instead said, “It’s confirmed that Tang Chen is among the people from Yuandu this time.”

“Tang Chen, I knew it!” Sang Hanhai shot up, agitated. “Last time, when you weren’t around, he brought a Holy Word Stone here, swaggering and claiming that no one in Yingfeng could decipher it. He blocked the entrance of the Translation Department for half a year, mocking us.”

“This time, he brought another piece of Holy Word Stone,” Pu Zhenghong said calmly.

“Too much!” Sang Hanhai’s expression changed, but then he quickly smiled. “Then he’s asking for trouble this time. Not to mention you’re here, Su Chen alone can make him eat his words.”

“It’s better not to let too many people know about Su Chen’s matter,” Pu Zhenghong pondered. “The people of Yuandu… have drifted further and further away from us.”

…

“Armored Bone Bearer, Anti-elementalist, thankfully there’s the Venerable…”

On the way back, Su Chen looked at the panel. This time, he had obtained two professions.

After the weakening, the difficulty of the Anti-elementalist was not high. It was just a passive role, and there was some core, but it should be completed quickly.

“Even without defense, I can take a lot of hits.”

The [Anti-elementalist] was a bit more troublesome. Draining to the limit and then recovering indeed required a set amount of time. If it hadn’t been weakened, it would have taken three years, or even longer, to complete.

“I need to plan carefully…”

Upon returning to the Tribunal, Su Chen learned something quite unexpected.

“Wei Yu Fan has successfully advanced to a Tier 5 professional?”

Ming Lin, who was waiting at his door, nodded, “That’s right. This fellow has accumulated a lot for a long time, originally intending to advance to Tier 5 Top-tier, but now he’s just Tier 5 Advanced. It’s really not worth it.”

He followed Su Chen through the door, looked at his back, and couldn’t help but sigh. Ever since Su Chen’s battle with Chu Xuan, the so-called chief contender seemed to have lost all suspense.

Originally, battles among their core seeds were quite frequent, but now they had stagnated for a long time.

However, Wei Yufan was unwilling to accept this reality and forcefully advanced to Tier 5, exceeding the arena’s suppression limit, thus holding back the “chief seed.”

Ming Lin couldn’t understand this method of indirectly weakening oneself to prevent Su Chen.

“He’s quite impressive,” Su Chen said, not taking it too seriously.

If Wei Yufan knew Su Chen’s current performance, he would probably explode with rage. Ming Lin smiled wryly in his heart.

Wei Yufan would rather abandon some of his future prospects than let Su Chen become the chief seed, but in reality, Su Chen didn’t have many thoughts about it.

“I wonder who will fill the two vacant core seed positions,” Ming Lin mentioned.

After Chu Xuan and Meng Qi’s successive deaths, the two core seed spots, which were originally specially recruited, became vacant again.

Chong Jingtian did not retract them. Instead, he planned to hold an internal selection competition to determine two winners who would become core seed replacements.

Everyone in the inner court has been watching this matter lately, all eager to fill the empty spots, which is much simpler than challenging existing core seeds.

“When does it start?” Su Chen asked, knowing that Old Bai also intended to become a core seed and would likely participate.

“Soon, probably before the people from Yuandu arrive, everything will be settled,” Ming Lin speculated.

“You also know that the people from Yuandu are coming?” Su Chen was surprised.

“This is no longer a secret,” Ming Lin said, speechless at Su Chen’s surprised reaction. “It’s probably going to be another round of open and covert struggles. Last time they came, I had just joined the Tribunal and sparred with a few of their people.”

“How was the result?” Su Chen asked curiously.

“There were wins and losses, but the overall quality was much stronger than our Tribunal’s seeds,” Ming Lin recalled. “Yuandu is not like our Yingfeng, which is divided into the Tribunal, the Security Division, and various other agencies. Their entire system is under the jurisdiction of the Ecclesiarchy, so resources are more concentrated.”

“In terms of the Tribunal alone, we were a step behind. It’s said that this time, their ‘Son of God’ will also come.”

“Son of God,” Su Chen heard this title for the second time, but he felt a chill as Ming Lin stared intently at him, “What kind of look is that?”

Ming Lin explained, “I’m just curious who among you is more powerful?”

“The Son of God is the most unique person in the Ecclesiarchy. Their selection method is also very strange. It’s not based on strength, nor does it seem to be based on talent.”

“Boring,” Su Chen shook his head. The only things that concerned him about Yuandu’s arrival were the [Spirit User] and the deity they worshiped.

However, the good news was that since this Son of God was so special, it was highly likely that he possessed the [Spirit User] profession, which increased his chances of acquiring it.
