Apocalypse: My Tattoos are Ten Yama Kings-Chapter 42: Early Awakening of the Thunder Tattoo

Chapter 42: Chapter 42: Early Awakening of the Thunder Tattoo

Evening.

Lin Yuan woke up, and when he went downstairs, Wen Yingying had already prepared dinner.

Bai Ling’Er, Wen Yingying, and Geng Youcai were all there.

"Boss Lin, I’ve already checked the surroundings of the villa this afternoon!"

"We can first build the outer wall, construct it to enclose this area, and then slowly fill it in!" Geng Youcai suggested his thoughts.

Geng Youcai, who awakened the Lu Ban Tattoo, is undoubtedly a professional in construction.

Hence, his proposal certainly made sense.

Moreover, enclosing land before building houses is common practice for big developers.

First, fence in the land, build a sales office, and set up a model, then start selling houses.

Thus, the first step in building a house is definitely to fence in the land.

As Geng Youcai said, enclosing the land first would mean this is Lin Yuan’s territory.

The contents inside the refuge can be filled in gradually.

Lin Yuan didn’t understand building a refuge.

He wasn’t about to direct the experts as a layman; since Geng Youcai had ideas, he would leave it all to him.

"Alright!" Lin Yuan nodded in agreement, then asked, "How long?"

"How long to build the outer wall?"

Geng Youcai designed the refuge to be similar to the Mo Family’s Mechanical City in the Qin Shi Mingyue anime.

The overall construction is very complex, with just the outer city wall accounting for about a third of the workload.

"A month, if all goes smoothly, maybe faster."

"However, it will take at least twenty days or so." Geng Youcai pondered briefly, then provided a number.

"Okay!" Lin Yuan replied indifferently.

After discussing the refuge construction, Lin Yuan said to Wen Yingying, "After dinner, we should set off; today is the Special Square Amusement Park."

"I checked, and there should be a large number of evil spirits there."

Wen Yingying nodded and replied, "Wherever we go, Brother Lin, you decide, I have no objections."

Wen Yingying’s obedience made Lin Yuan quite fond of her.

Just as Lin Yuan finished speaking, he heard Geng Youcai tentatively ask, "I..."

"Am I going too?"

Geng Youcai, being a non-combat type Life Pattern Master, wouldn’t be of much help in hunting evil spirits.

On the contrary, Wen Yingying would have to protect him.

Moreover, unlike combat-type Life Pattern Masters,

support-type Life Pattern Masters don’t urgently need Deceitful Qi, so there’s no need to take Geng Youcai to hunt evil spirits, Deceitful Charm.

"You stay and build the refuge; with her around, this area is very safe." Lin Yuan told Geng Youcai.

Bai Ling’Er is a demon fiend with three hundred years of cultivation.

She sought a title from Lin Yuan, who carries the burden of the Underworld, but ended up being thwarted by the Power of Rules.

Otherwise, Bai Ling’Er might have been a boss-level demon fiend in the 1.0 version of Deceitful Invasion.

Now, when Lin Yuan goes out at night to hunt evil spirits and Deceitful Charm, he no longer asks Bai Ling’Er if she wants to join him.

Because asking is pointless.

Bai Ling’Er is now engrossed in refining the Power of Rules for her own use and won’t go anywhere.

Is it safe with Bai Ling’Er around?

Geng Youcai wondered, is there a possibility that I’m actually afraid of her?

Geng Youcai knew that Bai Ling’Er wasn’t human and might just eat people.

"After you leave, she won’t eat me, will she?"

"Monsters eat people, right?" Geng Youcai cautiously asked.

Bai Ling’Er glanced at Geng Youcai and rolled her eyes, giving him an unkind assessment: "Idiot!"

"In my presence, people with value won’t die!"

"As long as you have value, I’ll ensure your safety!" Lin Yuan patted Geng Youcai’s shoulder, signaling him to rest assured.

After dinner, everyone went about their own business.

Bai Ling’Er continued to sit cross-legged in the garden, breathing in the Deceitful Qi while attempting to refine the Power of Rules in her body.

Geng Youcai started working on carving some wood and stone.

Lin Yuan and Wen Yingying left the villa area, heading to tonight’s hunting ground, the Special Square Amusement Park.

...

...

The nights after the Deceitful Invasion.

You could say were particularly deserted; even though the sky had just turned dark, around seven or eight o’clock, the streets were already empty.

Lin Yuan drove, navigating toward their destination, Special Square Amusement Park.

This is Peng City’s largest amusement park, which before the Deceitful Invasion, was always crowded every day.

During holidays, it was nearly impossible to get tickets without paying a premium to scalpers.

Located in the suburbs, Special Square Amusement Park covers a vast area, and the drive from the villa area took nearly an hour.

As the vehicle traveled down the road, a sound of battle ahead alerted Lin Yuan.

The Deceitful Qi was intense.

Undoubtedly, a Life Pattern Master was fighting evil spirits ahead.

"Go!"

"Let’s have a look!" Lin Yuan immediately parked the car, calling Wen Yingying to follow him.

Lin Yuan and Wen Yingying crept forward and soon saw the situation on the battlefield.

A young man, bathed in electric light, was fighting four Mountain Demons while wielding a streetlight.

Mountain Demons are Tier Eight Evil Spirits and are tangible creatures.

A team of four Mountain Demons has considerable combat strength.

This young man, enveloped in electric light, could hold his ground against four Mountain Demons, making him the strongest combatant among Life Pattern Masters at present, aside from Lin Yuan.

The young man wielded a broken streetlight as a weapon, engaging in a melee with the four Mountain Demons.

One strike!

Two strikes! Three strikes!

Although he fought arduously, the electric light on his body provided an advantage.

This electric light spread onto the streetlight, giving it a paralyzing effect.

He wielded the streetlight like a cudgel, striking the Mountain Demons, causing each to suffer brief paralysis.

Clearly, he hadn’t fully mastered the power of lightning.

Each strike only caused a two or three seconds of paralysis for the Mountain Demons, after which they quickly recovered and attacked again.

Lin Yuan didn’t intervene immediately but quietly observed from the sidelines. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

The power of thunder?

What is his tattoo?

Tattoos containing the power of thunder are generally incredibly powerful.

For instance, Lei Zhenzi, the Thunder Department’s True God from myth and legend.

And Wen Yingying’s father’s Celestial Lord of Nine Heavens, Thunderous Sound and Universal Transformation.

After awakening, these tattoos can harness the power of thunder and lightning.

However, these tattoos have a common trait.

They are so powerful that the amount of Deceitful Qi needed for awakening is extreme.

People with such tattoos often died at the hands of the Deceitful Charm and evil spirits before they could awaken.

Lin Yuan was very curious about this young man with a tattoo of thunderous power who successfully awakened early on.
