MMORPG: Divine Monster Transmuter

Chapter 771: Grace from Buddha

The captain was the team’s core.

The captain was the commander of the team and the team’s foundation. It was a very important position.

Sus smiled and pointed at Jiang Feng as he said, “You be the captain. With my current condition, it is not suitable for me to be the captain!”

When he recalled how Sus was so deeply engrossed in his own world just now, he really was not suitable to be captain.

The captain needed to focus and pay attention to everything that was happening in a battle so that he could adjust the positions of his teammates as needed. He also needed to be able to fight and command at the same time.

Doing two things at the same time was Jiang Feng’s strength. While he did not learn the Technique of Ambidexterity, he could still do that at the very least. Of course, he was not at Xue Cheng’s level.

“Alright,” Jiang Feng accepted the suggestion to be the captain. “A team needs five members, and we are still missing three. Who should we look for to fill in the three spots.”

“I do have someone in mind.”

“Who is it?”

“Wanke!”

“Wanke?”

“All the top five in the Tianji Tournament have the slots to come here. Ladilafu, Kalosi, and Shaoqiu have all joined one of the other factions. Only Wanke has not joined any other team. We can try looking for him.”

“Where is he then?’

“Preaching.”

Preach what? Was he from a cult?

Jiang Feng was speechless and went to look for Wanke with Sus.

Xingyue City’s city center was a huge business area. There were restaurants, training rooms, arenas, equipment shops, and auction houses here.

That was why this was where most of the people were gathering.

When they arrived, there were crowds everywhere. Among them, most of them were at Earth Realm and only some of them were at Heaven Realm. It seemed that there were more natives here.

“Look, there he is.” Sus brought Jiang Feng over to a restaurant. He looked for an empty table and sat down, and then pointed at Wanke who was going from one table to another.

Wanke was wearing a Kasaya, holding a string of prayer beads and a scripture in his hands as he preached to the customers at a table.

Wanke had a kind look on his face as he said to a man, “Young Master, what a coincidence. Will you believe in Buddha today?”

“Stop harassing me! If this is outside the city, I would have cut you down for being here every day!” The man seemed to have been asked by Wanke many times already. He was enraged as he pushed Wanke away.

“I did not. Maybe you can believe in Buddha now?”

“Scram!”

...

Wanke continued asking the customers at several tables and was hit many times. While he would not receive any damage and lose any HP, as he had entered the game using his real body, it was still quite painful for him.

He finally reached the table where Jiang Feng and Sus were at, with bruises on his face.

When Wanke saw Jiang Feng and Sus, he was slightly taken aback. But he quickly smiled and asked, “Young Masters... Oh, it is friend Jiang Feng and friend Sus. Do you believe in Buddha?”

Jiang Feng heard everyone before him saying that they would not believe in Buddha, but he wanted to know what Wanke would say if he said he believed in Buddha. He then said, “I believe!”

Sus was going to refuse, but when he saw that Jiang Feng had already answered him, his face turned black. He looked at Jiang Feng with sorrow in his eyes, and then turned around and looked outside the window as he let his thoughts drift away!

“That is great, friend Jiang Feng! It is said that Buddha is everywhere. As long as you have faith in Buddha, Buddha will protect your whole family and bring you his grace. He would have them reach Nirvana sooner so that they could remain by Buddha’s side...”

Pfft...

Jiang Feng spurted out the water that he had just drunk onto Wanke’s face. He then said, “Er... I don’t need this grace, thank you. You can keep it.”

‘What kind of goddamn grace is that?! I don’t need no Nirvana, or to accompany the Buddha!’

Jiang Feng finally knew why Sus would look at him with that expression.

The way Wanke preached Buddhism was too unique. He was cursing everyone with that mouth of his.

He finally understood why everyone else could not handle him. No one could.

“This is grace from Buddha. You and your family deserves it. Therefore, simply accept it in peace. Of course, if they wish to meet Buddha and accompany him, all you need to do is recite the Buddhistic scriptures day and night, to wash away your sins...”

“Do you have sin on you?” Jiang Feng cut Wanke short.

“I am Buddha’s representative, how would I have sins on me?”

“Does that mean that you have never committed murder, eaten meat, drunk wine, and had intimate relationships with girls?”

“...” Wanke had nothing to say.

While he had never eaten meat, drunk wine, and had any intimacy with any girls, he had murdered before. His hands were drenched in the blood of countless lives to be able to reach this height in power.

Even if he did not kill them, they still died because of him.

“If you do not wish to kill to increase your power, join my team. We can go to the Secret Map and fight for treasures as well as player slots in the tournament. How does that sound?” Jiang Feng said to him when he saw that he had become speechless.

“As a Buddhist, I will not participate in such worldly matters. I will never...”

Before Wanke could finish his sentence, he quickly said, “Who would believe in your god if you keep on killing and preaching at the same time? If you join our team, you will encounter many other teams. We can then spar with them. If we win, they would feel that the power of Buddha is boundless. Maybe they would even idolize you and ask you about Buddha?”

Other than being powerful, Jiang Feng was also quite clear-minded. And another important skill he had was to trick someone else.

He did not care if he could preach or not. He only needed him to be in his team.

He had seen how powerful Wanke was. Before he formed his Black Pill, he was so much more powerful than him. Even though he had formed the Black Pill, he still could not tell who was stronger. Not to mention that Wanke’s defensive ability was quite remarkable.

If there was someone like him in the team, he only needed to prepare enough Beast Pills and there would be someone in his team that could save them all. He could be both a tank and a healer at the same time.

“The way you put it sounds quite interesting.” Wanke was considering the possibility that Jiang Feng was showing him.

Unsurprisingly, Wanke ended up joining their team.

Once Wanke was part of them, Jiang Feng then shook Sus to wake him up from his daydreaming.

When Sus knew that Wanke had joined their team, he gave Jiang Feng a thumbs up.

In truth, before Jiang Feng came to Xingyue Area, he had also tried to recruit Wanke. But what made him speechless was that not only did he not manage to recruit him, but he also almost became a believer of Buddha himself.

When he remembered how Wanke managed to brainwash him, he was still somewhat scared of what had happened.

“Ahem. Now that our team has three people, we need two more. Do you have anyone in mind? Since we need at least five people to sign up as a team!” Jiang Feng asked Sus and Wanke.

A team needed at least five people. Only when it had five people could they apply at the Tianji Hall to be a team.

Sus then said, “I am focused on crowd-control. Wanke’s talent is more focused on being a high HP warrior. You are our DPS. What we still need is someone focused on support and an assassin. If we can’t find a support, a healer would do too. But we cannot afford to not have an assassin-type team member. Only an assassin-type team member can accurately give us information on our enemies as well as roam around the battlefield.”

“That is true. But the point is, where are we going to find our other two teammates?” Jiang Feng asked.

“If we need a support, I do have someone in mind. But he’s not that dependable!” Wanke suddenly said.
