Global Dungeon: I Can See the Status Bar

I must say, these apple-sized fruits that look and taste like oversized blueberries are quite delicious, with their juicy and balanced sweet-tart flavor.

Maybe I should take some seeds to Spirit Heaven Mountain and try planting them; who knows, they might taste quite unique as a jam spread on wrapped egg pancakes.

“This is the token representing the status of Vice Sect Leader, keep it safely.”

Liu Jianwu somehow produced a palm-sized red token and tossed it over.

The token felt somewhat cool to the touch, with the number “Thirteen” engraved in the letters of the Divine Protection Continent.

Lu Wenwu glanced at it briefly before stashing it in his personal space.

[You have completed the side quest—Vice Sect Leader]

[Quest Description: Vice Sect Leader of the Neo-Human Evolution Divine Teachings, a position that requires earning trust through intelligence from other Vice Sect Leaders. However, as an oddity, you managed to secure this position effortlessly, relying purely on “brute force” without any planning or scheming. It’s hard to tell if it’s a case of dumb luck or profound wisdom on your part.]

[Your personal overall rating has greatly improved]

Lu Wenwu: “???”

No way?

Huh?

I thought you were just saying it—bro, why are you giving it for real!

Lu Wenwu, usually the one leaving others at a loss, found himself at a loss for the first time at someone else’s hands.

Could it be that the Neo-Human Evolution Divine Teachings genuinely value talent?

Can’t be!

Across the entire continent, there are at least eight hundred A+ level Neo-Humans. Are they all going to be appointed as Vice Sect Leaders?

Even Lu Wenwu, who usually considers his brain merely decorative, felt something was off, completely illogical this time.

This time, he genuinely felt puzzled.

He couldn’t understand the opponent’s strategy, completely unclear about their intentions.

Surely it can’t be that the Sect Leader simply took a liking to him, right?

That would be too ridiculous.

Since that’s the case…

Then a brother can only strike first to gain the advantage!

To avoid being hindered by some schemes within the Neo-Human Sect, Lu Wenwu silently moved up the timeline for his harvesting plan.

While Lu Wenwu was in the midst of a brainstorm, Liu Jianwu said solemnly: “Vice Sect Leader Thirteen, the Sect Leader from the Divine Dragon Tribe’s Ancient Remnants that you captured from the Ring Realm is highly valued by the Church Master; you may bring him up now.”

Lu Wenwu, interrupted from his thoughts, raised an eyebrow: “That’s something I plan to present to the Sect Leader!”

Hiss!

At his words, the main hall was filled with the gasp of surprise.

The Vice Sect Leaders glanced at Lu Wenwu, some with schadenfreude, disbelief, panic, and jest, among others.

Liu Jianwu didn’t become angry at Lu Wenwu’s blunt retort but said calmly, “Bring him over, and I will present him to the Sect Leader myself; are you afraid that I would claim credit for your achievements?”

“Of course I am,” Lu Wenwu said righteously, “My father taught me since I was a child, ’Don’t release the hawk until you see the rabbit.’ Now, amongst us all, you’re the boss, but if you truly took credit, where would I go for justice?”

This time, many Sect Leaders glanced at Lu Wenwu with expressions tinged with sympathy.

Even though both are at the Peak of Earth Level, the First Vice Sect Leader can kill an ordinary Peak Earth Level as easily as eating and drinking.

Speaking to the big boss so boldly just upon arrival—surely he hasn’t experienced much hardship.

A reckless young man from a remote area.

This left many Vice Sect Leaders, who initially planned to include Lu Wenwu in their camps, to reconsider.

Offending the First Vice Sect Leader is tantamount to offending the Sect Leader’s confidant, akin to seeking death.

Conversely, the Fifth Vice Sect Leader Diawara, who had intense hostility towards Lu Wenwu earlier, now viewed him differently.

His prior near-hatred turned into admiration, even revealing a slight smile.

The First Vice Sect Leader Liu Jianwu glanced at Lu Wenwu with the same calm demeanor, without even a formulaic smile changing.

He said lightly: “Since you’re worried I’ll take credit for your accomplishments, wait until the Sect Leader emerges, then you can explain to him directly.”

“Alright!” Lu Wenwu promptly agreed, “When is the Sect Leader coming out? I’ve admired the old man for ages, can he give me an autograph?”

“…”

Finally, under Lu Wenwu’s unrestrained speak, Liu Jianwu’s composure broke, his expression management collapsed.

He didn’t understand what an autograph meant.

He felt anger rising within, his temples thumping.

Despite the stiffness creeping into his smile, he maintained composure on the surface.

“The Sect Leader will… emerge soon! As for what you meant by autograph, inquire yourself with the Sect Leader!” Liu Jianwu smiled stiffly, gritting his teeth, “On ordinary days, try not to stay far from New City; if the Holy Church’s bell rings, come here quickly for discussions.”

“Alright.” Lu Wenwu nodded, somewhat disappointed.

Looks like my plan needs to be delayed again.

This Sect Leader is also a bit enigmatic.

Actually giving me the position of Vice Sect Leader but not showing face?

What odd behavior is this…

“If you need to understand the power and duties of the Vice Sect Leader, ask Dar; he can explain.”

With those words, Liu Jianwu vanished in a flash, quickly leaving the scene.

Vice Sect Leaders also glanced at Lu Wenwu with varied expressions before disappearing one by one.

Dar approached, patting Lu Wenwu on the shoulder, secretly giving a thumbs-up with a small hand behind his back, whispering, “Brother, you really nailed it! Later, bring the guys to my place, I’ll treat you to a good meal, the location is…”
