Chapter 160 A Fistful of Milk
Under the leadership of the Guardian Corps, the team quickly returned to the supply point.
Along the way, the Guardian Corps also contacted Hai Tianqing, and the teacher-student duo was finally reunited.
Jiang Xiao still expressed his concern for Hai Tianqing, after all, he had single-handedly lured away the Ape-Ghoul King, giving the team time to search for Jiang Xiao.
Hai Tianqing seemed to be in good condition and didn't suffer too much damage. Perhaps he had already healed himself. According to him, with the help of the arriving guards, they quickly dealt with the Ape-Ghoul King.
However, the Ape-Ghoul King's Star Bead was unlikely to fall into Hai Tianqing's hands.
After a long battle and numerous anomalies, the team lost their desire to train. In fact, when they saw the high-flying red star flag, their inner feelings were at a deeper level than when they came.
"This armory is indeed not a place for us to train," Xia Yan said, pursing her lips as she hurried forward, looking like she still had lingering fears. "These gregarious creatures are too difficult to fight, and once we encounter the Ape-Ghoul King, it's really hard for us to resist. Xuexue's Shattered Space isn't even big enough to hold the Ape-Ghoul King."
Hai Tianqing accompanied the children forward and comforted them, "When the league comes, the monster distribution in that armory should be readjusted. There shouldn't be any Ape-Ghoul Kings appearing, and the higher-ups won't give you overly difficult tasks."
Li Wei remained silent, mostly standing at the front of the team, especially in the tunnels. The Ape-Ghoul's fist slammed into his shield with real force, and he felt it the most.
"I wonder how that bald team found our hiding place," Xia Yan said indignantly.
Jiang Xiao thought for a moment and said, "They came in from the entrance we first entered. Although we blocked it, there were still stone pots left by the savages outside."
"Yeah," Han Jiangxue nodded thoughtfully, thinking that Jiang Xiao's reasoning made sense. "They must have seen those living utensils and decided to open the blocked entrance to enter the tunnel for survival. It's a pity they couldn't block the entrance again and were squeezed in by the Ape-Ghouls."
"Eh? Right, what about the bald guy? Is he alive? Was he rescued by the guardians too?" Xia Yan asked anxiously, lowering her voice, "We killed one of their companions."
The trainee who had been smashed into Shattered Space by Han Jiangxue's Explosive Flame had already had his Star Bead harvested by Han Jiangxue and fed to the Ape-Ghoul.
"You don't have to worry about the bald guy and that female trainee," Jiang Xiao said. "I didn't see the remaining trainee."
Xia Yan: !!!
The others looked at Jiang Xiao in surprise, and from Jiang Xiao's words, they realized a terrible truth.
"Little Pi?" Han Jiangxue asked with concern.
"The Ape-Ghoul King's slap sent me to the other side of the mountain forest, which happened to be the bald team's escape route. I only saw a man and a woman, and I didn't see the remaining one. He's probably in a bad way," Jiang Xiao sneered. "I saw the state of these two when they died with my own eyes. I guess the other teammate was abandoned by them and is probably dead too."
Xia Yan came to Jiang Xiao's side, put her arm around Jiang Xiao's shoulder, lowered her head slightly, and whispered into Jiang Xiao's ear, "How did they die?"
Jiang Xiao tried to move away, but in the face of Xia Yan's absolute strength, he couldn't break free and could only whisper in response, "They were killed by Ape-Ghouls."
"Really?" Xia Yan asked softly.
Jiang Xiao was silent for a while, then told the truth, "I have a good teacher."
Xia Yan was stunned for a moment, thinking of the scene when she threw the human corpse she picked up to the White Ghoul in front of Jiang Xiao in the snowy field.
"How do you feel?" Xia Yan's voice gradually softened, and she asked softly.
Jiang Xiao: ???
What's going on?
Are you going to be a confidante?
Wow,
You're speaking so gently, I'm not used to it.
Jiang Xiao looked up at Xia Yan suspiciously, but saw a trace of concern in Xia Yan's beautiful eyes.
No matter how much the two usually bicker, it is undeniable that Xia Yan really cares about Jiang Xiao in her heart.
Jiang Xiao smiled and said, "Don't think of me as so fragile. They tried to use me as bait, tied my ankles, and bought time for themselves. I just did what I should do."
"Yeah," Xia Yan rested her elbow on Jiang Xiao's shoulder, propped up her arm, and gently patted Jiang Xiao's head, saying, "I'm afraid that you'll have a psychological shadow, which will be detrimental to your future growth. I'm also afraid that you'll become too numb and turn into a cold-blooded animal. Alas, my psychology is really contradictory."
Jiang Xiao said silently, "Confess your love to me, and my numb heart will definitely be melted by you."
"I don't want to be a puppy," Xia Yan lowered her head slightly and suddenly bit Jiang Xiao's earlobe, tearing it outward.
The action was so wild and sexy, but in Jiang Xiao's heart, it was mostly teasing and reprimanding.
Regardless of what the two were muttering, Hai Tianqing understood the meaning of Jiang Xiao's first sentence and said, "Let everything that happened here stay here, and don't let any news spread out."
The others did not respond. The children knew that many bloody cases had occurred in this armory.
However, the others had no sympathy for those trainees.
During this armory trip, Jiang Xiao gained some skill points, respectively from "Silver First Kill", "Silver Ten Kills", "Nebula First Kill" and "Over-Level Killing".
It seems that the trainee in Han Jiangxue's Shattered Space was at the Nebula stage.
The Galaxy First Kill had 5 skill points, but this Nebula First Kill only had 3 skill points.
The over-level kill did not change and still had 5 skill points.
However, Jiang Xiao was already at the Nebula stage. If he killed a Nebula-stage trainee again, he probably wouldn't get the skill points for over-level killing.
This armory training trip was really dangerous. Jiang Xiao even spent almost all of his huge savings, leaving only 14 skill points.
However, Jiang Xiao's strength had also greatly increased.
Jiang Xiao had always wanted to work hard to train and balance his Star Power with his body.
After all, he was now in a stage of explosive growth in physical fitness. If the situation was not really critical, Jiang Xiao didn't even think he should waste skill points in the low-level Star Dust stage.
Not a single skill point should be wasted.
Risk is also accompanied by reward. Jiang Xiao really gained a lot this time. In his inner vision Star Chart, in the Star Skill section, two more Star Skills, "Yearning" and "Dawn", have been added.
And they have been upgraded to Gold quality through Star Beads and skill points.
This trip made Jiang Xiao understand the cruelty of normal other-dimensional spaces, not only the ferocious other-dimensional beasts, but also the threat from humans.
Perhaps, he should really add an output skill for himself.
But, his Star Slots are really few. If he chooses an output Star Skill, he must be careful and cautious.
Azure Glow is already a very good output skill, with both a strong attack bonus and a knock-back bonus.
Moreover, the number of White Ghouls is so large. Jiang Xiao can further upgrade the quality of Azure Glow. For Jiang Xiao, Azure Glow is really a divine skill among divine skills.
For Jiang Xiao, every Star Slot is precious.
Everyone wants to become an all-around god, and Jiang Xiao also wants to, but the number of Star Slots does not allow it.
Jiang Xiao wants a displacement divine skill, wants a resurrection divine skill, wants...
He wants too many functional Star Skills. He wants to become a unique healer.
Although... these Star Skills are like dreams for Jiang Xiao, and he may never get them in his life, but dreams are still necessary.
Or just settle for it,
And spend his life with Azure Glow.
Work hard to improve Azure Glow and cultivate it to the King quality.
Become a One-Punch Super...
Um,
Become a One-Punch Healer?
