“The Dougweir family…should have a way, right?”

“Or… it could be the ‘Speaker’s’ scheme?”

After finishing his breakfast with a full load of thoughts, Su Lu returned to his bedroom.

This time, he was ready to advance to [Shadow Warrior]!

Due to the [Odd Magician], his professional rank had already reached 3, and his experience points had sharply decreased. There were no other concerns he had to worry about.

On the chance of dealing with the lunatics from the Ancient Snake Society next, he needed to upgrade his strength.

He glanced at a particular item in his attribute bar:

“Strength: [2.4], Agility: [3.7], Constitution: [3.3], Spirit: [10.0]”

“The Flesh and Blood Ritual held just now has significantly boosted my attributes…the rest can be piled up with a Magic Potion…”

Without hesitation, Su Lu removed the bottle cork and drank the Cat’s Elegance Magic Potion, which tasted cool and mint-like.

A burning sensation spread throughout his body.

With an unchanged expression, he monitored his attribute bar and saw his physical constitution gradually decreasing, as his agility began to rise slowly.

About ten minutes later, Su Lu pursed his lips. 𝒻𝑟𝑒𝓮𝔀ℯ𝓫𝓃𝑜𝓋𝑒𝘭.𝑐𝓸𝓶

“Not enough! It’s not enough!”

He took the second bottle of magic potion and gulped it down.

Gulp-gulp!

As the Magic Potion went down his throat, the burning sensation recurrence was accompanied.

The sweat started to pour forth from his forehead as his physical constitution deteriorated rapidly.

Eventually, all data stopped altering and stood at ‘Agility: [4.0], Constitution: [3.0]’

“Phew…”

He caught his breath, and the inspiration that spread began to resolve the residual mental issues left by devouring the magic potion.

“I remember last time I used the ‘Cat’s Elegance’ magic potion, it boosted the agility by 0.2 and only cut down the constitution by 0.1! But this time, it’s a fair trade of 0.3 of the constitution to gain 0.3 of agility attribute. It just doesn’t seem profitable anymore… Does this mean… I have developed a resistance to the Cat’s Elegance magic potion? The benefits do not justify the harm…”

On that note, Su Lu rose from his seat and got used to the changes in his body. He instructed Mary to heat the water, and then took a cosy shower.

While luxuriously soaking in the tub, he was surrounded by warmth and suddenly had an intuition that this was the perfect moment for advancing!

“Hmm… based on the [Shadow Warrior] information from the Inner Circle White Tower of the Green Tree Castle, for a normal [Wanderer] to advance, requires rigorous training. Improving qualifications is just secondary, but learning a massive amount of secret arts is necessary. They even have to… carry out various dangerous assassins, looking for a breakthrough opportunity in nerve-wracking life and death situations!”

“But I’m different; Having a bath can just help break through this. If my survival skills get enhanced, maybe I can go to the banquet tonight…of course, for mere observation!”

Su Lu’s expression was calm: “Promoting…[Shadow Warrior]!”

[Consuming 1000 experience points, take office as Shadow Warrior… The precondition for taking office: Wanderer as the prerequisite profession at a second level, agility 4.0, constitution 3.0!… The conditions fulfilled! Start advancing!]

Above the attribute bar, the holographic screen changed rapidly.

Having had the experience from last time, Su Lu was completely at ease and awaited the influx of massive information and enhancement skills.

“Ugh!”

He groaned as his limbs began to convulse abnormally: “It’s wrong… The physical advancement, is different from the [Odd Magician]!”

Su Lu could sense numerous body movement techniques and many figures cartwheeling in his mind.

They seemed like one person yet seemed to be hundreds. They had transformed into numerous shadows.

Eventually, these shadows fused and became one person.

He saw the face of the Shadow Man, strikingly, it was his own!

[Ding! Successful taking office!]

[Taking office as Shadow Warrior! Agility +2, Constitution +1! Acquired skill: Shadow Clone!]

“Shadow Warrior … is better at hiding in the shadows. All kinds of abilities will be amplified and elevated in the dark. They are assassins in the shadows, proficient in confusing enemies and have an impressive survival ability.”

Closing his eyes, Su Lu summarized the information he received.

Immediately, he looks at the bathwater and finds that the water in the tub has turned pitch black and stinking. He couldn’t help but make an awkward face, got up, rinsed thoroughly, and changed into a comfortable bathrobe.

After returning to the bedroom, Su Lu put on his gloves, and a black dagger suddenly appeared in his hand.

His fingers deftly rolled the dagger, streaming it between each finger, and transformed it into a black streak of light.

“Agility has reached 6.0. It’s an earth-shattering change. It’s not only speed, but also finger flexibility and even attack speed…”

Thump! Thump! Thump!

Suddenly Su Lu drew his dagger, tore the air apart, and emitted a slight noise.

“In one second, I can attack several times. The me of today can even take care of most of the lower-ranking professionals, let alone with the ability of [Shadow Warrior]. If I launch a sneak attack, it would be very troubling for a spellcaster of the same or higher rank to get close to me… It’s no wonder it’s the expert-level assassin profession!”

He concentrated his attention on [Shadow Clone LV1], hesitated for a while.

Suddenly, an ‘Su Lu’ who was dressed in a bathrobe and standing in the same posture as him, appeared in the room with various expressions and gestures exactly like him.

“Even the breath can be imitated? What a pity!”

Su Lu shook his head and reached out with his right hand.

His palm passed through the ‘himself’ standing opposite him without any hindrance, without the slightest barrier.

“The Shadow Clone of the [Shadow Warrior]? As expected, the focus is on ‘shadow.’ Does this mean creating illusions of a fake clone?”

In actual combat, if I suddenly have a clone of myself, even if it doesn’t have a single bit of attack power, it would certainly be useful.

“However… if this skill is upgraded, will it have a real clone?”

Su Lu’s eyes brightened.

Once he thought of it, he carried it out! He glanced at his experience points. At that moment, his experience points plummeted:

[Consuming 200 experience points… Shadow Clone promoted to LV2!]

[Consuming 400 experience points… Shadow Clone promoted to LV3!]

[Consuming 800 experience points… Shadow Clone promoted to LV4!

[Shadow Clone upgraded to LV4, obtain an exclusive addition – clone enhancement!]

[Clone Enhancement – The ability of the Shadow Clone to withstand attacks has improved—strength boosted, control range extended!]

“Watch me… the technique of the Shadow Clone!”

With a playful heart, Su Lu tried again and conjured up an identical version of himself in the room.

“Good day… Mr. Sean!”

The ‘Su Lu’ opposite him, exactly the same, politely said and bowed with a smile. There was no flaw to be found.

He stepped forward and pressed on the shoulder of the ‘him’ in front of him, only to find that it was solid, and the muscles were resilient.

“Huh? Did it turn into a real object? And it seems to have a certain combat power as well, probably copied 20-40% of my physical strength. Currently, he’s equivalent to a strong [Soldier]? A [Soldier] with various stealth capabilities? The control distance is about one kilometer to two kilometers, and exceeding this limit will immediately cause the clone to disappear. Also, only one can be maintained at a time.”

“Is this the upgraded Shadow Clone?”

Su Lu’s eyes gleamed: “What if I continue to upgrade? Will I have a real ‘clone’ in the future, just like having an extra life?”

If he were to have that kind of clone, he could continue to live reeflessly.
