《World of Experts 》Chapter 159: The Coming of Ancient Evil
Advertisement
In a remote dilapidated house of Hibiscus County, the robust man, who had just stepped forward bravely, was chatting with the middle-aged man he had saved.
“Hello! I’m Extinct God. However, it’s not my real name. You also know, the world is getting more and more chaotic in these years. I rarely use my real name outside.” Extinct God said with a smile. Extinct God was naturally no one else but Shi Hao, who used level 2 Disguise Attire (possess two appearances).
“That’s fine! This world never had true peace in the first place. The Divine and Mighty Alliance indeed has many righteous men, but they still cannot conceal the evil nature of the Divine and Mighty Alliance. And there are not many villages that can be counted as truly peaceful in Divine and Mighty Alliance! I don’t have a home, so I have traveled to various places in West Flower Region. I’m afraid only Twin Dragons Village can be regarded as a pure land without a dirty matter of power struggles.” That robust man sighed, and suddenly, he recalled that he had yet to introduce himself.
He then said in a daze: “I’m Dian Wei, you can call me Brother Wei…”
Since Extinct God was Shi Hao in disguise, he naturally knew about Dian Wei from the Stargazing Platform.
Dian Wei was a genuine SS grade historical NPC with a knight profession. He was very strong at PVP. In history, if anyone asked who was the most favorite general of Cao Cao, then almost everyone would answer Dian Wei. Although Dian Wei was not a commander-general, he was definitely a divine general who could defeat Lu Bu. Dian Wei had saved Cao Cao four times in his extremely short life of several decades. The last time, in the name of the coming of ancient evil, he deterred Zhang Xiu’s army at the cost of his own life, letting Cao Cao escape WanCheng.
Allegedly, after Dian Wei died that day, his corpse still remained standing and no one dared to step forward.
The skill of Dian Wei in <Kingdom>, Shi Hao already knew about it. However, to act his part perfectly, he had to ask what he should ask whether he already knew or not. Otherwise, wouldn’t that make the other party suspicious?

Therefore, Extinct God asked about the strange matter of before. Dian Wei also didn’t conceal it and explained about his skill, The Coming of Ancient Evil.
[Skill Name: The Coming of Ancient Evil]
[Skill Grade: historical NPC’s skill, no grade classification]
[Skill Type: Passive, no consumption]
[Weapon Restriction: All weapons]
[Current Rank and Mastery: Level 3, 420/2000]
[Skill Effect: Immune to debuffs other than poisoning, can reborn three times per day in full state, and with every reborn, attack, defense and HP would be increased by 20%]
“Cough! So that’s how it is…” Extinct God nodded his head, expressing that he understood the strange incident that had just happened.
As it turned out that, when Dian Wei rushed forward to save Extinct God, Pan Feng’s broadsword suddenly burst with powerful momentum. Everyone knew that it was an effect of a critical-hit. After this hit, a naked person was bound to die according to normal logic.
However, at that time, Dian Wei was cut into two halves, but not only he didn’t die, but his momentum instantly became stronger. As a result, those fellows including Pan Feng were terrified. They might have thought that they had encountered a ghost.
“Hahahaha!”
At this moment, Dian Wei and Shi Hao had chatted for a long time and inexplicably felt each other’s feelings…
“Brother God! I think your equipment is not ordinary. How come a person of your status is putting up a small stall on the street? Could it be that you still lack money?” Dian Wei suddenly asked curiously. Dian Wei had always been secretly following Li Yong, wanting to seize a good chance to kill him.
Unfortunately, Li Yong had a fellow named Lu Yi beside him, and Dian Wei was not confident in being able to kill Li Yong under the other party’s protection. Therefore, Dian Wei had just followed for a long time without making a move.
Dian Wei was very concerned about Extinct God’s matter. He knew that he had to find a sufficiently strong ally if he wanted to kill Li Yong. Obviously, Extinct God, who had a decent background, was a good choice.

Extinct God smiled. Everything was under his complete control. There was not even a small deviation from his script. However, from here onwards, the original script would be rewritten. Shi Hao had no intention to follow the original script of Stargazing Platform.
In fact, after Feng Tianhao used his own way to recruit Huang Zhong, Shi Hao also understood that the recruitment methods of historical NPCs weren’t set in stone. It was not wrong to say that there were just two basic methods, but there was also a new path evolved from the two basic methods.
According to the original script of Stargazing Platform, at this moment, Shi Hao just needed to agree to Dian Wei, find Zhang Han with Dian Wei and use Zhang Han’s hostile relationship with Wei Wentong and Zhang Han’s sense of responsibility, moreover, reveal his own status as the official of Divine and Mighty Alliance, and knockdown Li Yong via Zhang Han, demoting Li Yong to ordinary villager so that he wouldn’t be able to act like a tyrant anymore. At that time, Shi Hao could successfully recruit Dian Wei.
At a glance, the ending of the story seemed happier than Huang Zhong’s script. Unfortunately, Shi Hao was not satisfied with this ending.
Li Yong was an insignificant figure. He was just a direct fuse that caused dissatisfaction among so many people in Hibiscus County.
However, after Li Yong was gone, wouldn’t there be many other substitutes? Did this mean that Shi Hao wanted to defeat Wei Wentong?
No! It was not effective even if he defeated Wei Wentong.
What was truly needed was not simply to bring down someone or simply be chivalrous. For instance, look at the group of players who suffered extortion, they were forced to keep their resentment to themselves. But if they were turned into masters, and Li Yong and Wei Wentong were turned into servants, then would they be any better?
Those who bent solely on profit would never be able to change it.
Extinct God said with a smile: “Brother Wei! I respect you as a man, so I’ll tell you the truth. I put up a stall there, waiting for Li Yong to catch me. And I was waiting for him to capture me so that you will save me. I know about Brother Wei, you are a true hero. However, just getting rid of Li Yong will not improve the situation of Divine and Mighty Alliance. It will only make Hibiscus County peaceful for a few days.”
Extinct God paused for a moment and said meaningfully: “Brother Wei! There is a saying, he who holds no rank in a state doesn’t discuss its policies. If you truly wish for world peace, then you have to have sufficient power to influence the world. At that time, one hand can restrict greedy and wicked people and the other hand can spread extensively to mellow the thought school. This is the long-term effective way.”
Upon hearing Extinct God, Dian Wei frowned and stood still for a long time…
Dian Wei naturally understood the meaning of Extinct God. Extinct God was obviously persuading him to work for the Divine and Mighty Alliance, and achieve a higher position relying on his own skill, then use his strength to support those people in need.
However, Dian Wei had no intention to let Li Yong go even if he agreed to the proposal of Extinct God. It was fine if he hadn’t seen it, but as long as he had seen it, he wouldn’t let it go in any case.
Fortunately, Extinct God also saw through Dian Wei’s thoughts and added promptly: “Brother Wei! Don’t worry, an evildoer like Li Yong naturally shouldn’t be spared. And Li Yong is just an insignificant person, Brother Wei doesn’t need to personally make a move…”
Shi Hao already had a plan in his heart. Not only he wanted to demote Li Yong to an ordinary villager, but also make him learn the profound lesson of life…
