Richard casually stuffed the three medicine bottles into the inner pocket of his jacket, patted his chest to confirm that they were put away.

Then he pointed to the wooden chair opposite the sofa.

"Come here, sit down. I'll tell you the next few rules you should follow."

Evan sat down obediently, with his back straight and a serious look on his face.

Richard stretched out his right hand and raised one finger.

"First, don't take the initiative to provoke the Authorities's Beyonder. Being targeted by them will be very troublesome."

"If you have the ability and charm to build a good relationship with them, it's a good choice."

Evan nodded.

"Then how do I identify it?"

Richard sneered.

"No need to identify. You can recognize it when you see it."

"Those guys are so proud of their identity that they want to have "I am a the Authorities" carved on their foreheads."

second finger.

"If you want to gain more knowledge, you need to contact more Magic Creature."

"Demon Hunter is not learned by reading, but by practicing through life and death battles."

"You know how chaotic this city is, but a lot of it is caused by inhuman beings."

"I will give you a letter of introduction. You can take it to Tavern to take some jobs hunting Magic Creature."

"While increasing your Profession knowledge, you can also make some extra money."

"As for the danger, you don't have to worry too much. Profession instinct will tell you what you can and cannot defeat."

Evan nodded vigorously.

"Okay."

The third finger.

"Don't transform in front of ordinary people. Be prepared to hide your identity before doing anything."

Richard's tone became particularly solemn.

"The above can allow thieves in fancy clothes, but the Beyonder phenomenon is not allowed to appear in front of ordinary people. This is a dead line."

"Once you touch it, you will be punished by the rules and laws set by Big Judge. The consequences will be very serious."

Evan was shocked and engraved this rule in his mind twice.

The fourth finger.

"The last one."

There was a hint of helplessness in Richard's tone.

"We people often receive compulsory transfer orders from the Authorities. In some dangerous and vicious Beyonder incidents, they will use us as cannon fodder to explore the path."

"When encountering this kind of situation, if you can run away, just run away. If you can't run away, spend money to take care of it. If the opponent can't get in, then beat him severely."

Evan frowned.

"Then the first one... doesn't it say don't take the initiative to provoke them?"

Richard asked rhetorically.

"Which is more important, trouble or life?"

"Fate."

Richard nodded.

"If you encounter someone you can't beat, you have no choice but to admit it's bad luck."

Evan From this last sentence, I heard a kind of helplessness that has been suppressed for many years.

He didn't ask any further questions and carefully reviewed the four rules in his mind.

Then he remembered something else.

"That's right, senior brother."

"The reason I Streetcar was late today is because I was stopped by a rich girl when school was over."

"She invited me to be her bodyguard tomorrow and go to New Haven to watch the football match. I always feel that this guy has something to do with Pulis."

Richard's eyebrows raised.

"Tell me more about it."

Evan started from Gilbert going crazy on Sports Ground a few days ago and told the ins and outs of several contacts with Eldin.

Richard After listening, he said yes.

"It should be related. But that girl can see the sun, which means she is not Bloodthirsty Species."

He rapped the coffee table with his knuckles.

"Generally speaking, anyone who can calculate the timing of coincidences and events so accurately has the involvement of [Prophet]."

"This girl may be the target of Pulis's use, not necessarily his accomplice."

"Hurst... is the very prominent big Family over there at Britain."

"The Profession inherited within the Family is Knight. It has no dealings with Bloodthirsty Species, and there is no enmity with our lineage."

Evan frowned.

"Then shall I still go?"

Richard pondered for a moment and nodded.

"If you go to other places, I would advise you not to go. But you can go to New Haven."

"Miskatonic University has an office over there. Hill is on a business trip there right now."

"You just need to go over there and ask Hill to take you to Miskatonic University Office to apply for Investigator identity certificate."

"If you have time, let her train you in some basic knowledge."

"How to make Ritual, how to remove Curse, how to make a simple Talisman..."

"After you come back, find a police-qualified Detective Agency to work as a detective. It will be much easier in the future."

Evan thought for a moment and asked what he was most worried about.

"That Alcott, what if you attack me?"

Richard shook his head.

"Not that much."

"Your Ancestor, that Immortal Witch, are your reminders. But they are also your Talisman."

He paused for a moment and his expression became extremely serious.

"No one dares to bet that there is something weird hidden in your Bloodline."

"Pulis has been testing you for half a month and feeding you all kinds of Magic Potion. In the end, I was anxious to take action because you ate Demon Hunter Trait."

"That playboy doesn't have the courage or the brains."

"The more mysterious you remain, the less they will dare to touch you."

"Just like what Pulis said in the letter - this is your chance."

He paused and said encouragingly:

"Junior brother! You have already defeated Pulis, a wily [expert] like Bloodthirsty Species. This kind of trash is no match for you."

"You are too passive now! The other party has taken the initiative, so we must also take the initiative."

"Curse has come to us, how can we bear it?"

"After the last experience, if he really wants to attack you, can he avoid it at a distance?"

Evan agreed after listening.

The last time I was faced with bad luck, I didn't even know it was Alcott who did it.

Richard patted Evan on the shoulder, and his tone was so heroic:

"Spirit Communion Society is behind him, and we are behind you."

"Let's put it this way, although we are looked down upon by them, these factions don't dare to provoke us easily Demon Hunter."

"Those who are barefoot are not afraid of wearing shoes. Their family has a big business. Let's see who can't stand it first in the end!"

Hearing this, Evan immediately remembered the impatience and helplessness on Pulis's face when he played against Richard.

I immediately recognized Richard's confidence.

This made Evan's weird brain circuit think of an inappropriate metaphor:

As long as I am a piece of shit, no one will want to step on my head.

What's more, Demon Hunter is not shit, it's a landmine!!

If you don't agree, just step on it and see!

Richard continued, "Make good use of this Miss Nobility, it will be easier for you to get closer to Alcott's circle."

"This kind of trash who fools ordinary people, find an opportunity to help me punch him twice!"

Hearing these words, Evan felt a surge of warmth and confidence in his heart.

Indeed, I am no longer Mortal, but have become Beyonder!

Move me?

After a few bottles of Magic Potion, you'd better not let my blood touch your skin!

He picked up Female Assistant and Beyonder Characteristic from the table and handed them over.

"Brother, can you help me refine it into Magic Potion? My first Characteristic, I want to get Undying Nature from Bloodthirsty Species."

Richard weighed the sweet potatoes and asked, "Have you thought clearly?"

"Super self-healing and Undying Nature are indeed tempting. But the weaknesses are also obvious."

Evan grinned.

"There's no way, senior brother. I'm in a hurry right now. I don't have time to pick and choose."

Richard thought about the blacked-out words in the letter and sighed.

"That's right. Then I wish you can overcome the sunshine."

After the conversation ended, Evan arranged for Richard the second bedroom where Mary lived before.

The sheets had been changed two days ago, and the bedding was freshly dried.

As soon as the senior brother entered the room, he snored evenly as soon as his head hit the pillow.

Evan walked into Washroom and turned on the cold water faucet.

Ice-cold water rushed out of the rusty water pipe and hit his shoulder.

He closed his eyes and let the water flow over his forehead, cheeks, neck, and chest.

The water pipes in old apartments do not have any insulation measures.

The cold water in mid-to-late November is only about 5 degrees.

A large amount of it poured on the body would be bone-chilling for a normal person.

But at this time, Evan feels acceptably cool.

The blood in the blood vessels was as hot as boiling, continuously providing him with sufficient heat.

The strength and extraordinaryness of the new body were magnified to the extreme by the ice water at this moment.

"This is the body of Beyonder!" Evan clenched his fists, full of emotion.
