【Congratulations, Master, for containing (recruiting) T0 protagonists X5!! Now unlocking "Lackey Skill Tree"!】
A series of system notifications rang out.
Qin Luo's mouth couldn't help but curl up.
Due to practicing the Rakshasa Technique, Song Ming had learned countless martial arts.
And with the effect of containment...
All the martial arts Song Ming had learned were now synchronized to Qin Luo.
Anyway, following the usual routine.
Everything that could be fused was fused!
In an instant.
Another series of system notifications followed.
Similar and analogous techniques were all fused together!
【Congratulations, Master, "Lackey's Phantom Body" fused with "XX," "XX," "....." successfully! Obtained new move: "Lackey Shadow Form": Allows the practitioner to transform into an intangible shadow, instantly moving and traversing through darkness!】

【Congratulations, Master, "Aura Pressure" fused with "XX," "XX," "....." successfully! Obtained new move: "Aura of Demonic Flame": Once activated, demonic flames burn, and wherever the flames reach, ghosts and gods are shocked, and living beings retreat.】
A series of system notifications followed.
Good.
Qin Luo thought, this was the reason he contained T0 protagonists.
Because they always brought him unexpected benefits.
Don't you see?
He's been slightly enhanced again.
All main skills have been updated with increased intensity.
Hmph~ Now~
Qin Luo nodded with satisfaction.
He had finally increased his self-preservation capabilities once again.
However...
There was one thing that intrigued him.
What was the Lackey Skill Tree?
He silently thought, "Open the Lackey Skill Tree."
The next second.
A black panel appeared before him.
Unlike previous panels,
This one exuded an ominous aura, with wisps of black smoke constantly rising from it.
On the panel was a twisted tree diagram, with each branch labeled with different gray skills.
At the very top, it was marked.
【Containment Points: 5 Points】
Qin Luo blinked, calling out in his mind, "Little doggy, come out and explain what this is."
【Ding ding~~】
【Reporting to Master, the Lackey Skill Tree is the most important thing for Master's strength enhancement!】
【It consists of three paths, namely: Shadow Arts Master path, Netherworld Witch Doctor path, and Night Shadow Assassin path!】
【Their respective effects are........】
【....】
After a while.
Qin Luo understood.
To put it simply.
The Shadow Arts Master was a summoner.
The Netherworld Witch Doctor was a healer.
The Night Shadow Assassin was an assassin.
Theoretically, as long as he had enough Containment Points, he could follow all three paths.
Moreover, each path would unlock corresponding advanced professions as it progressed.
Hmm.... Interesting.
Qin Luo looked at the panel, thought for a moment, and finally decided to unlock..... the Shadow Arts Master!
Because during the recent power struggle in Jiang City, he had noticed a problem with Su Muwan.
Although she herself was invincible, the problem was....
There were far too few underlings.
Wasn't it tiring to have Su Muwan or himself clean up the small fry every time?
So....
Hmm, as a summoner, let the summoned creatures deal with them.
Thinking this, Qin Luo looked at the Shadow Arts Master section and willed it with his mind.
Hum——!
【1 Containment Point consumed, Shadow Arts Master profession unlocked! Current remaining 4 Points!】
【You can now control shadows to a simple extent.】
As the notification ended.
The gray icon under Shadow Arts Master instantly turned into a glowing, addable icon.
He looked at it.
There were many branches under Shadow Arts Master.
It was quite intricate.
After a long period of consideration.
Qin Luo added points to four skills.
【Shadow Creatures】【LV1】: Summon 100 Shadow Crows for personal use, which can be placed under the shadow during daily life.
【Shadow Pact】: This skill allows you to resurrect any dead creature as a shadow creature, retaining some of their abilities, and serving you.
【Shadow Annihilation】: This skill gives your shadow creatures powerful self-detonation abilities, with detonation damage related to the strength of the contracted creature.
【Shadow Resurrection】: Dead shadow creatures can be restored to their original state within a short time by consuming energy.
Hmm.... All Containment Points were exhausted.
Apart from the skills that a summoner should have.
Qin Luo looked at the Shadow Creatures section. Currently, at level 1, Shadow Creatures could summon 100 Shadow Crows.
This skill had a total of 3 levels. Once maxed, the next Shadow Creature would be unlocked.
In Qin Luo's opinion, this should be a summonable creature exclusive to this profession.
Adding points to it was always a good choice.
Alright... It was time to go back and test what these new skills could do.
Thinking this.
Qin Luo glanced at Su Muwan, who was swinging her legs and scrolling through her phone beside him.
Huh, there's an idea.
He smiled slightly and said, "Miss Su."
"Hmm?"
"Would you like to see a magic trick?"
Magic trick?!
Su Muwan immediately became interested. She turned to look at Qin Luo, her eyes filled with anticipation. "Yes! What kind of magic trick?"
Seeing this, Qin Luo smiled mysteriously, then clapped his hands together.
He then looked at Su Muwan and said, "Miss Su, extend your hands."
"Oh."
Su Muwan obediently extended her palms.
The next second.
"Don't blink, Miss Su."
As Qin Luo spoke, he slowly separated his hands.
A magical scene unfolded.
Between the two hands that had been brought together, a lifelike black shark plush toy gradually materialized!
Qin Luo placed it in Su Muwan's palm, then smiled at her surprised gaze. "For you, Miss Su."
"Wow!"
Su Muwan's eyes sparkled as she hugged the black shark plush toy, the soft touch and exquisite craftsmanship making her unable to stop squeezing it.
【Loyalty +10!】
"Qin Luo! How did you do that?"
Su Muwan hugged the shark, her face full of joy as she looked at Qin Luo.
The latter just chuckled lightly and said, "Revealing the magic trick would spoil the fun."
Simple shadow manipulation could achieve this level of effect.
He looked at the overjoyed Su Muwan.
The happy young lady, in short, was....
"Hmph! This mere Qin Luo dares to be so arrogant! Next time, I'll learn a trick and show it to you!"
Hmm, in short, very cute.
