The pendant really gave a response!
Just see.
The icon on the status bar has changed.
The name of the icon has also changed.
This could of course only be the response from that big guy, as the Knight of Death had obviously done something to change the status of [Death Knight Dependent] given to Ian to [Death Knight Follower].
It seems that there are some differences, but... There doesn't seem to be much difference?
Ian looked at the icon with great anticipation, his expression froze. The identity icon of [Death Knight's Follower] still could not show any status enhancement.
It just appeared in Ian's status bar.
As if it were a little transparent.
Just like the [Death Knight Follower] before.
"Uh, where is my immortality?" Ian was a little unwilling and picked up the pendant again, "Godfather, if it really doesn't work, you can give me a monthly immortality package."
He had made his plea eloquently enough, but the pendant remained motionless.
Ian's bargaining did not receive any response.
"At least give me a negative effect to prove that you have been here!" He lowered his standards again. However, there was still no response from the other end of the pendant.
The Knight of Death was too cool to respond to an Ordinary NPC.
Certainly, Ian couldn't figure out whether the big boss didn't want to give it or couldn't give it. If his memory was correct, he should be in a state of being imprisoned by God?
In this hodgepodge of the world, Ian was not sure whether this background was still applicable. Just as Ian sighed and said that his mood was like a roller coaster and his emotions were severely being played with like Justin Beiber in a Diddy Party...
"What on earth are you..." The tone of Reaper Tessa was a little horrified, not only because Ian could hurt them, but also because she suddenly felt a suffocating oppression.
Perhaps for Ian, his status bar just changed to an icon with a different name. However, Tessa clearly felt that Ian was beginning to change, which made her tremble.
She had never felt this feeling before!
Now Tessa, the Grim Reaper, realized that she couldn't even look Ian in the eye! Such a terrible situation made Tessa feel that she might have encountered some kind of great terror.
Everything before was just the other party's trick.
This could also explain why the other party could see the Reapers—this boy might not be human at all! Thinking of this, the face of Tessa, became more and more confused.
"This! Can't you recognize it?" Ian frowned and pulled out the pendant again and shook it. He wanted to use the two Reapers to figure out what it was. Unfortunately, the Reaper Andrew, who was rolling on the ground, was still curled up like a shrimp, holding his vital parts and struggling with the pain brought by the broken eggs.
As for Tessa, this Reaper was acting like a little girl, already stuck to the corner of the wall, and suddenly acting so weak, she stared at Ian's pendant for a long time, with only confusion and bewilderment on her forcedly calm face.
"No wonder you have lived for who knows how many years and are still here as a Reaper in hospitals! I can tell at a glance that you have no ambition or desire to make progress! That's why you don't yearn for progress!" Ian first sighed with emotion.
"Look at me, learn from me. I'm only fourteen years old, but I'm already loved by my godfather. Oh, by the way, I'm afraid you don't understand, so I may have to explain to you that my godfather is actually your old..." Ian originally wanted to pretend to be powerful and start his first show of pretending to be awesome, and at the same time, firmly establish the identity he shamelessly asked for.
However.
The will of the universe may be feeling that this is not something an ordinary NPC would show off about.
Suddenly, there was a sound of chaotic footsteps in the distance.
"Right over there!"
The nurse's shrill voice cut through the corridor.
"That boy who was talking to the air! Poor child, he must be mentally ill!" The nurse's voice was full of pity and a bit of nervousness.
Ian turned his head and was stunned.
Five white-coated doctors were seen running over with restraint beds, and the doctor in the front was holding a sedative. The leading black nurse ran with her arms outstretched as she shouted to him in a soothing tone.
"Don't be afraid, kid! We will help you contact your parents!" Her voice was very gentle. If she hadn't been holding the large rope in her hand, Ian might have thought she was a good nurse who cared for patients.
"Damn it!"
Ian saw a group of doctors and nurses getting closer and closer. He really missed the fake Tessa's ability to freeze the world. If he were caught by this group of doctors and nurses, would he be able to survive?
"I'm fucking mentally ill... I'm clearly just a teeny-tiny bit mentally ill!" Ian didn't think he could convince these doctors and nurses, so he turned around and ran away without hesitation.
Seeing this situation, the two Reapers that ordinary people could not see both breathed a sigh of relief. Tessa helped her companion, who had recovered a little. Only then did she realize that she had missed the time to receive the soul.
In the ward.
The doctors and nurses had no time to pay attention to what was happening outside.
…
He ran.
They chased.
Thanks to his strength of 5.8 and physical fitness of 4.7, which is five times higher than that of a normal person, Ian did not end up being unable to escape.
How to say it.
Doctors and nurses might really have to drink Redbull and grow some wings to catch up with him. Because Ian ran to the window instead of the stairs, and he jumped directly from the sixth floor.
The Blessing, no, it was a curse that made Ian not afraid. It was just jumping off a building. However, ordinary doctors and nurses obviously could not know this.
"That kid committed suicide!"
"Oh! No! This is the sixth floor!"
"It's over! That handsome boy's face must be smashed to pieces! I remember him! He's the Stan Lee of Bruce High School! A campus reporter of Bruce High School!"
Seeing Ian jump out of the window decisively, the nurses and doctors shouted in panic. Among them, the nurse who had communicated with Ian before recognized Ian's fake identity.
"Quick! Get down! Maybe we can save him! At least... we can save a few organs?" Amid the chaotic exclamations, the doctors made the most optimistic inference. So, a group of people immediately ran towards the elevator. For some reason, their speed to recover organs was even faster than when they wanted to help Ian just now.
At this moment, he landed on his butt with a thud. Ian, who landed fairly steadily, gasped in pain, and the negative status below his field of vision began to increase.
The accumulation of anger value had also reached halfway.
[Severely disabled body, experience value +5]
Ian's pelvis was shattered.
He also broke his thigh bone and several ribs.
Fortunately, his physique was strong enough and he didn't fall and get bled out, otherwise, Ian would have to find a way to lick his blood clean.
It's not that he really couldn't bear to lose that little bit of nutrition, but he didn't want to leave any chance for anyone who tried to collect his DNA. As an ordinary NPC in this world, Ian felt that he should be cautious.
Just like he had found the clue about the sewage plant, but he actually didn't intend to put himself in danger. As for the matter of getting foreign aid, Ian had already thought about whom to find last night.
There is someone very strong, very powerful. Compared to other superheroes, that person would definitely help him from the bottom of her heart... or rather, help Superman, who has less than seven days to live.
