187 One Blade Butcher (Part 1)

“The next day, at 3 am, the sky was dark and the orphanage was silent. Only the corner of the building had a faint light on.

Ning Shi followed the light and walked quietly in the corridor.

He walked alone in the huge orphanage. There was no one around, and he could only hear her own footsteps. The atmosphere suddenly became a little gloomy and terrifying.

Ning Shi always felt that someone was spying on him in the dark.

Although the current game avatar was an ordinary person, his Spiritual Power had not reached an extraordinary level, and his perception was limited, Ning Shi would not doubt his own feelings.

He knew that he had rashly approached Nico yesterday and had attracted some people’s attention.

Someone had already started to monitor his every move.

Ning Shi pretended not to know anything and walked forward unhurriedly. About 20 minutes later, he arrived at the farm located in the back mountain of the orphanage.

Ning Shi deliberately arrived ten minutes earlier than the agreed time, but Old Li arrived even earlier.

Old Li’s entire body was black. He had black hair, black eyes, dark skin, a black shirt, and black pants. When he spoke, his teeth were also black because he often chewed on the black smoke fruit, a specialty of the Norse Republic.

If he wasn’t standing under the dim yellow light, Ning Shi almost couldn’t see him.

Seeing Ning Shi’s arrival, Old Li stood up first and touched Ning Shi’s body carefully with his calloused hands. After a while, he nodded in satisfaction.

“Not bad, Ning Shi. You have a thick bone structure, suitable for wielding a knife. The muscles on your arms, waist, and thighs are firm and elastic. I can see that you have a habit of exercising, and your physical fitness is excellent.

“I’ll accept you as my disciple.”

Old Li took out a stinky black smoke fruit from his shirt pocket and handed it to Ning Shi.

“Xiao Ning, do you want a black smoke fruit?”

The black smoke fruit was like a Saturn cigarette. It had the effect of refreshing and relieving stress. Old Li had been a butcher for his entire life and had to get up early every day.

In order to keep himself awake and to relieve the depression in his heart, he had to chew at least 10 black smoke fruits a day.

This kind of black smoke fruit was more common in the suburbs, and the production was also very high, so the price was not expensive, and it was loved by the common people.

“Thank you, master,” Ning Shi waved his hand and said, “I’m willing to learn slaughtering skills from you, but I don’t chew this.”

Since Old Li said that he wanted to take him as a disciple, Ning Shi thought about it and decided to take advantage of the situation and acknowledge this relationship.

There were still people monitoring his behavior in the dark. If Ning Shi chose to refuse the relatively good job of butchering and still refused the master who wanted to teach him a skill, such behavior would not fit his identity as an orphan.

After suffering a loss yesterday, Ning Shi knew that since the system had given him identity information, he had to play the role of an orphan now. Every move had to be done from the perspective of an orphan.

Hearing that Ning Shi had changed to calling him master, Old Li smiled, showing his neat black teeth. He threw the black smoke fruit into his mouth and chewed a few times before saying.

“It’s good that you don’t chew this. If you get into the habit of chewing black smoke fruits, you won’t be able to quit in the future even if you want to. After today’s slaughter is finished, you can move to the breeding ground. The conditions here are much better than your previous single room.”

Old Li was almost 60 years old. People were very long-winded when they got older. Moreover, he was not married and had no children. He was always alone and needed someone to talk to.

Therefore, he was especially talkative.

“Xiao Ning, let me tell you, if you master the slaughtering technique, you will be the number one figure in the orphanage. You don’t even have to be afraid of the director.

“I’m old and not as energetic as I used to be. I can’t handle the slaughter alone.

“I’ve been looking for Old Song to ask for people, but the people he sent me were all ugly and ugly. I’ve driven them away.

“I’m very satisfied with your visit this time. I’ll leave my mantle to you in the future.”

“Thank you, master,” Ning Shi said respectfully. “I’ll definitely work hard.”

Following this conversation, the game system sent a prompt.

[ The host has successfully taken up a new profession. You have become a professional butcher. The Character Template has been unlocked. Please learn the relevant skills from Old Li. ]

[ Butcher: A profession that combines strength and skill. It may seem crude, but it has unlimited potential. In the world of Tai Chi, many creatures’ corpses need to be handled by professional butchers. ]

[ Profession requirements: Physique 9, Spiritual Power 8 ]

Seeing the system notification, Ning Shi secretly felt lucky. Since the game system still required him to take up a new profession first before he could awaken his Character Template, if he had not taken Old Li as his master, then even if he killed the rabbit, he would not have gotten any professional experience.

He would be unable to level up.

Moreover, Titanium Pole World was indeed extremely difficult. The butcher profession required nine physique points and a Spiritual Power of eight points. This was very difficult for ordinary people to achieve.

No wonder Old Li had driven away many people before, and his attitude was very gentle after seeing Ning Shi.

There were people who met the requirements of the butcher profession and could inherit Old Li’s legacy.

However, such a person was considered a talent and was not willing to be a butcher.

Those who were willing to come didn’t meet the requirements, and those who met the requirements didn’t want to come. This was Old Li’s problem. Now that he had Ning Shi as his successor, his fiery temper had changed.

He was very good to Ning Shi.

He took out the alloy knife that he had not used for a long time and handed it to Ning Shi.

“This is a gift for you. It’s 107cm long, 41cm wide, and weighs 43 pounds. The blade is made of precious E-level alloy.

Ning Shi took the knife and was very touched. This knife was very precious and was worth more than one million origin coins. Old Li had given him such a precious gift when they first met.
