I Will Teach You How to Hunt Gods

Chapter 9: Hidden Yet Again Hidden


[Invisible Sequence, born from shadows, progresses in the ladder known as "Chaos," as one of the "Hidden Sequences"]

[Under the eyes of the Shadow Chief, the Invisible will create chaos, destroy millions of armies with its own power, spreading fear into every enemy's heart. Its main abilities include assassination, intelligence gathering, behind-enemy-lines operations, etc.]

[Complete mastery of the sequence allows adaptation to most battlefield environments and the integration of advanced technology for self-improvement, possessing countless ways to end enemies.]

[Choose the Invisible and join the ranks of the Shadow Chief.]

Rare Sequence, Invisible.

Although the sequence introduction doesn't seem as exaggerated as Mad Dog, it talks about many practical things.

For instance, assassination skills, intelligence abilities, and so on...

All of these align with Yun You's combat methods—unscrupulous, unconcerned with so-called dignity, only striving for better and more profitable victories.

It is evidently more comprehensive than the Mad Dog.

More importantly, it can be integrated with technology.

In the current era, although Apprentice Death Gods are recognized as social rulers, technology still stands at the apex of the pyramid, occupying its place.

From popular melee weapons and guns to mountain-high gigantic war machines, and finally to the technical chips installed in brains...

No matter how much havoc the demons in Nest City cause, they cannot shake the status of technology.

A police-level Mantis Blade can, in terms of "destructive power," bridge the gap between ordinary people and apprentice Death Gods in their internship period; a "Time Flow Speed Adjustment Chip" allows ordinary people to see the trajectory and speed of bullets.

Technology allows people to stand shoulder to shoulder with Gods, it allows the weak to reach the shoulders of the strong.

Therefore, a sequence that can be paired with technology naturally has more versatility than a plain sequence.

"How about... choosing this?"

Yun You licked her lips and couldn't help but stretch out her small hand.

But soon, she calmed down.

"No, let's take a look at the last one first."

She looked at the third icon on the far right of her perspective.

The speed at which this thing appeared was the slowest; it had been crawling in the darkness for who knows how long before finally showing up.

However, its appearance was indeed different from ordinary sequence icons.

Its main part was a golden laurel crown, its surface inlaid with luxurious diamonds and crystals, looking quite splendid and regal, very much like the "Crown" Yun You had seen in oil paintings before.

But what was puzzling was that it was inverted, with the pointed top facing down, the headband facing up, giving a rather strange and uncomfortable feeling.

This was another sequence icon Yun You had never seen before.

In other words, the third option the little girl drew was still a rare sequence.

Yet this sequence seemed... a bit strange.

[Sequence X—LORD]

[...]

[...]

[Missing information, if choosing, please report offline to the Apprentice Death God Hall to obtain specific intelligence and training methods]

No information, no introduction, no sequence number, and you even have to consult the Apprentice Death God Organization to get relevant intelligence.

The only possibly useful thing might be the foreign text it bears.

It's just a pity that Yun You's family was poor, she hardly attended school, and didn't know much foreign text, so after thinking for quite a while, she couldn't figure out what it meant.

[It's the meaning of "Monarch" or "Noble," silly Yun Zai]

During her thinking, Master Zero suddenly spoke.

[Repeat after me, "Rold"—lord]

[l, o, r, d]

[This is the simplest Western Hemisphere text, haven't you learned it?]

"No, I haven't..."

Yun You scratched her head, feeling a bit embarrassed.

"And even if I don't know, it doesn't matter, right? As long as you know it, Master Zero, I can rely on you when encountering things I don't understand."

[You...]

Master Zero was clearly a bit speechless.

But thinking carefully, Yun You was used to being so carefree and relaxed; even if asked to study well, this girl would probably still make all sorts of excuses to avoid it.

Thus, Master Zero could only give up on a debate.

"But speaking of which, since you recognize this string of gibberish, Master Zero, do you know what's up with this sequence? Why does it only have a name?"

[Who knows]

Master Zero answered casually.

[My memory now is as scrambled as when you cooked before, blew up half the kitchen, and made that indescribable noodle mess, black and white, full of bubbles and goo, with abstract themes]

[I can't find any complete memories, all I see before me are fragmented moments; recognizing this word is already quite impressive, not to mention acting as your encyclopedia]

[But I do have a suggestion]

At this point, Master Zero paused slightly, seemingly organizing his language.

[Think about it, aren't the items that drop when we play games like this: the less impressive the item, the more detailed the description, desperately writing a mini-essay in the introduction to distract you from its trashy nature]

[Whereas the more awesome things, the descriptions become more concise, even some don't write any at all, those are even more heavyweight, so I feel this "Noble" sequence is similar]

[The reason for the lack of information might be because it's so rare, even the Apprentice Death God Organization doesn't have much information about it, could only fill in a few points, I don't need to say much about how precious this rarity is, right?]

[Moreover, look at that crown, isn't it more magnificent than that doggone thing and dagger? You can choose not to believe me, but you can't deny its looks!]

[Although the inverted crown is a bit ominous, this isn't a big problem after all]

[So I think, stop agonizing over what to choose, just pick this "Noble" sequence, it won't let you down]

Master Zero's words, although lacking scientific evidence, always gave a very reasonable feeling.

"Hmm... makes sense."

Yun You was persuaded.

Old Jin also mentioned before, once encountering a rare sequence, take it without needing comparison with ordinary sequences.

This indicates that the strength and importance between rare sequences might be similar.

Since that's the case, Yun You would rather take a gamble and choose this word-sparse "Monarch Sequence," perhaps she could land an even stronger, more suitable sequence.

Simply put, Yun You was actually a gambler; however, what she gambles on might be even more than money...

The little girl stretched her hand towards the crown icon, gave it a gentle tap, and the whole icon lit up, exploding with dazzling golden light.

According to Old Jin, once the icon lights up, the sequence power would naturally integrate into the soul, and the consciousness of a person could detach from this dark consciousness space.

Yun You closed her eyes expectantly, waiting for the sequence power to flow into her body.

One second, two seconds, three seconds...

...

One minute, two minutes, three minutes...

"..."

Ten minutes, a quarter-hour, half an hour...

No changes occurred.

Yun You still stood in the consciousness space, the sequence before her continued to shine brightly.

Nothing happened, as if Yun You had never tapped the icon.
