‘Knock knock!’
A crisp knock sounded on the door.
Then the courier's voice came from outside.
"Your delivery, please sign for it."
‘Click~’
Quickly opening the door, Ye Mo finished signing for the delivery and carried the cardboard box inside.
"It finally arrived."
Excited heart, trembling hands.
The online shopping materials Ye Mo had been longing for over the past few days had finally arrived.
This time, he took out a loan for a full two hundred thousand or so from a small loan platform.*
With it, he finally managed to gather the materials for the two SSS-Rank Class Cards.
Taking out a small knife, he slit open the cardboard box.
Exquisitely packaged small boxes of various sizes entered Ye Mo's view.
These small boxes were arranged neatly, like Labubu blind boxes.
The boxes were also marked with the 3A inspection mark exclusive to the Six Saint Sanctuaries.
This was to prove the safety of these materials.
Of course, there was also the brand logo.
These materials were all produced by the Adventurer's Association.
Any Agent or player, after awakening or becoming an Agent, had to go to the Adventurer's Association to process formalities.
Only in this way could they enter dungeons legally and reasonably.
"It's time to craft a Class Card for my sister, too."
Since he had signed a contract with her, he had to be dedicated and responsible for that girl.
Following the prompts, Ye Mo took out the crafting materials for the "Necromancer" Class Card.
——————————————————
[Necromancer]
[Corresponding Path: Mage]
[Class Quality: SSS-Rank]
[Materials: Ghost God Stone *3, Dead Spirit Grass *3, Ghost Soul Crystal *3]
[Introduction: Innately possesses a domain, ruler of undead creatures. One person is an army of thousands!]
[Class Motto: I am the Scourge!]
[Note: Faction Exclusive Class. After joining another god's faction, the character card will automatically be destroyed. (Limited production of 2 cards)]
[You have collected all the materials. Craft now?]
——————————————————
Ye Mo controlled the system panel with his thoughts and immediately selected 'Yes'.
[Mana -100]
‘Whoosh!’
The corresponding materials in front of Ye Mo instantly turned into dazzling beams of light before condensing onto his palm.
Soon…
A card that was pitch-black throughout, with golden patterns branded on the edges, appeared in his hand.
"That's... it?"
Ye Mo blinked, not expecting that crafting a card could be so simple!
The only downside was that the mana consumption was truly too much.
Crafting one card consumed 100 points of his mana.
It should be known that mana recovery was very slow.
On average, a person could only recover 1% per hour.
To fully recover, it would take him at least 3 or 4 days.
Of course, one could also choose to buy mana potions to speed up mana recovery.
It was just that the price…
Even for inferior ones, a bottle would cost a few hundred yuan.
"Sigh! Whether it's a player or an Agent, both are extremely money-burning professions."
Of course, high investment also meant high returns.
Both of these were also very profitable professions.
By entering a dungeon once, just the money from selling materials could range from several hundred to several thousand RMB.
Of course, if good equipment dropped, one could even earn anywhere from tens of thousands to millions at once.
It paid much better than ordinary jobs.
Some players would even awaken special physiques to make money.
For example, the Heavenly Dao Alliance Saintess Jiang Linyue.
After awakening her Path, she innately possessed the ‘Jade Spirit Sacred Body.’
Not only was her own mana cap doubled, but even her recovery speed was over a hundred times that of ordinary people.
She could recover 2% every second, rarely ever running out of mana.
Her sweat, blood, and so on could be used for scientific research to make mana potions.
Even drinking it directly would have mana recovery effects.
And it was pure and natural, without any pollution, even purer than distilled water, and it came with its own fragrance.
"Not enough mana, but I'm not in a rush to craft the second Class Card for now anyway.
This way, I can save some money on buying potions."
Ye Mo still had one SSS-Rank Class Card left uncrafted.
But it didn't matter, as he didn't have a second player right now anyway.
"It's time to help that girl change classes."
Looking at the ‘Necromancer’ Class Card in his hand, the corners of Ye Mo's mouth raised slightly.
He decided to help Ye Xiaoxiao change classes first, then go through the formalities for entering dungeons.
At that time, he could let her use her body to pay off his debt for him day and night!
Ideally, she would be reduced to an emotionless money-making tool.
"Looks like I still have to feed her some pie in the sky properly. I have to let her know that this isn't just entering dungeons for me, but also for herself!"
As a qualified Agent, how could he not PUA** his own player a bit?
Hehehe!
'Sister, right now I only have you as my player.'
'It's only right for you to work a little harder.'
'After all, only in this way can your brother help you pay off your debt.'
Thinking of this, Ye Mo licked his lips excitedly.
With a wave of his big hand, he put the remaining materials into his system backpack.
Carrying the Class Card, he went straight out the door and rode his small electric scooter towards Kaiyang High School.
"Sir, a Hollow Crisis has erupted ahead. The road has been blocked, so please turn back."
Just as Ye Mo was riding his small electric scooter and had only gone halfway…
He was suddenly stopped by law enforcement officers of the Six Saint Sanctuaries.
The so-called Hollow Crisis…
Was actually just a ritual held by certain Wild God believers who had been bewitched to the point of losing their reason.
In order to obtain more blessings and power.
Or even wanting to let an Evil God be born.
This kind of birth ritual was naturally illegal.
And it required a large number of sacrifices.
In Ye Mo's previous life, it was similar to a terrorist attack.
The Six Saint Sanctuaries would dispatch a large number of high-level ‘Players’ and ‘Divine Agents’ to go on a crusade.
Simply put, a Hollow Crisis was more similar to a sudden ‘World Class’ dungeon.
Killing the mastermind not only stopped the crisis but also let them obtain a large amount of rewards.
The difference was that dungeons only allowed players to enter, while Hollows didn't have so many restrictions.
But once you died inside a Hollow, you were truly dead!
"Hollow Crisis?"
Looking at the intersection blocked by yellow tape ahead, Ye Mo frowned slightly.
He suddenly associated it with the cheap Divine Religion Ritual Ye Xiaoxiao had told him about a few days ago.
"That girl shouldn't be that unlucky, right!?"
A bad premonition rose in his heart.
Ye Mo hurriedly took out his phone and dialed Ye Xiaoxiao's number.
‘Beep... beep…’
"Sorry, the number you have dialed is not in the service area. Please try again later!"
A cold electronic voice came from the phone.
Ye Mo's heart tightened, and his pupils contracted slightly.
Not in the service area?
'That girl, she couldn't really have been swept into the Hollow Crisis, right?!'
The moment this thought surfaced, Ye Mo suddenly felt a wave of unease and irritability.
"Excuse me, how long has it been since the Hollow Crisis erupted?"
He hurriedly looked at that law enforcement officer and asked.
"Probably... less than ten minutes, but the combat personnel of the Six Saint Sanctuaries haven't arrived yet."
Looking at Ye Mo's anxious expression, the law enforcement officer seemed to have realized something and comforted him.
"Brother, please believe in the Sanctuary. We’ll help you rescue your family."
"En, thank you."
Ye Mo took a deep breath, then turned around and left.
He said that with his mouth, but he didn't think so in his heart.
A Hollow was extremely dangerous, unlike entering a dungeon.
Once you died inside, it was death in the true sense!
To reduce losses and sacrifices, the Six Saint Sanctuaries would definitely spend a long time gathering troops and judging the pros and cons.
They would only take action after they had full confidence.
The whole process was extremely time-consuming.
As for the ordinary people trapped in the crisis...
They didn't care at all!
What those people cared about was only the rewards after conquering the Hollow.
This was also why, although the Six Saint Sanctuaries prohibited Evil God rituals on the surface, they didn't take strong measures.
Because...
To them, these were all experience packs!
Experience packs exchanged with the lives of ordinary citizens.
"Relying on others is worse than relying on myself."
Thinking of this, a trace of resolve flashed in Ye Mo's eyes.
'Since you guys are hesitant…'
'Then I'll just have to do it myself…'
'And maybe I’ll eat that Evil God inside too!'

*About $28k usd, assuming this is yuan and using the current exchange rate (12/18/25). Well, the only reason I put a note on this is to say what kind of small loan platform lends $28k to a goddamn part-time jobber? Seriously man.
