Chapter 146: Old friends come to see you off, newcomers go out to fight (First update to ask for monthly tickets)

……

Area D2B9.

Female Void Palace.

After two busy days, Xie Xiaochan returned from the northern wasteland after successfully clearing out a deep cave. As soon as he entered the gate, he hung his head and walked towards the disciples' residence like a dejected person.

The twin ponytails that were once so oppressive seemed to have lost their vitality. They no longer trembled, but instead followed humbly behind the head, lifeless.

"Xiaochan, there is a sermon tonight, don't you want to go and listen to the lecture together?"

"Oh, that's right. Senior Uncle Li Heqi from the Yangqi Hall next door has specially brought people here today to deliver their special vegetarian food. It seems like they have something to ask of us, the elders who are teaching the sutras. We can have a free meal when we go. This vegetarian food is nutritionally balanced and very precious. We can't eat it on ordinary days."

Two senior sisters who were on good terms with each other asked with concern. One of them had a standard dangerous lady hairstyle with one side of her hair hanging down in front of her chest, looking intelligent and mature; the other had long hair down to her waist, with a slim waist and round hips, looking graceful and elegant.

There are seven kinds of Taoist nuns, each with its own characteristics.

"No, I want to sleep~ I'm annoyed by those perverted nuns... Bring me some dinner if you can~"

After returning to the disciples' residence, Xie Xiaochan threw herself prostrate on the soft bed and let out a contented sigh.

"Ahhhhhhh~~"

She turned over and looked at the decorative lantern on the ceiling with her arms and legs spread out. One hand touched her flat belly without a trace of fat, and the other hand grabbed at the air, muttering to herself silently:
"Seven days... Seven days~"

"Why is the conversion efficiency of the cursed energy I absorb getting slower and slower? Is there something wrong?"

"So, the so-called bottleneck period is so severe."

"And the strangest thing is..."

She touched her earlobe, opened the upgraded network interface, looked at the first-level strongman on the friend list for a long time, and finally gritted her teeth in hatred.

"I actually want to send him my photos from time to time. I have an inexplicable urge to show myself in front of him. This is not scientific. No, this is very mystical... It seems that the last time I deliberately tricked him in the ruins, it has affected my state of mind."

"No wonder I've been feeling sleepy lately... I'm just too kind."

"Seven-Colored Taoist Nun needs to perfect her state of mind before she can make further breakthroughs. It seems that the problem lies here."

"We must overcome this hurdle, Xie Xiaochan. You can't be lazy or sleep in any longer. Go and pre-prepare the resource supply for next month tomorrow. No matter what, we must overcome this hurdle."

"That bitch named Leng is already trying to reach the third level. We can't let someone like this overtake us..."

"It must be proven, Nuxu Palace..."

"Entering the secular world..."

"That's the way to go!"

“…Snoring~”

…………

Northwest of the D8B3 District Judgment Department, inside the Hunter Association, Gu’s family.

Gu Pan was dressed in black, standing with an extremely tall and straight posture, with an imposing aura like a rainbow.

Some family members talked about her in whispers from a distance, but did not dare to get too close.

Cold-blooded, aloof, and naturally proud.

This is everyone's evaluation of this fellow from the same clan who has just become the Sword Master.

They heard that the new Sword Master gave up on selecting others as Sword Servant and directly signed a Master-Servant Contract with an elder who was a widow of the Sword Servant, and they believed that she would most likely be a widow for the rest of her life.

Of course, these discussions can only be whispered behind people's backs and cannot be spread out.

While listening to the report from the person next to him, Gu Pan nodded thoughtfully:
"Has my aunt not come back yet? Then let's wait for her. But since I have come out of seclusion, I should be given the sword I deserve."

The plaque in the lobby in front reads "Jianqi Chongxiaotang", and you can vaguely see the restrained light inside.

This is where the Gu family places their special weapons called "cursed tools".

Because of the special family situation, the spell tools owned by the Gu family are mainly swords among cold weapons.

There are all kinds of swords, such as soft sword, broadsword, willow-leaf sword, short sword, long sword, gold and silver sword, etc.

It is said that the sword in the hand of the head of the family, Gu Shiqian, is a purple-quality cursed tool and the masterpiece of the current Lord of the Mo Palace. However, I don't know whether the rumor is true.

The quality of the products at Chongxiaotang varies greatly, but they are basically all green.

That’s it, so many people want it but can’t get it.

And the rules are very strict. If you take one, you have to go outside to experience life and death trials, and bring back materials of similar value to pay for it. It's a one in, one out, and no bad debts can be allowed.

After going through a series of tedious procedures, Gu Pan got a long sword of excellent quality, which made a faint sound when it was drawn.

[Cursed Tool: Long Sword·Wind-Breaking Blade (Excellent)]

[Effect: Melee attacks have the effect of additional air blades, with a range of three meters. The air blades have a bleeding effect, which increases the mana consumption each time it is activated, and disappears after the sword is raised once.]

"Thank you, elder."

Gu Pan checked the effect of the curse tool, put away the sword with a blank expression, and put it behind his shoulder, but he was thinking in his heart:
"Hmph, it's just a piece of rubbish, totally useless! Given the special nature of my inheritance, even if you give the curse tool from the patriarch to me, it would be my due responsibility."

"But I'm a rookie, so I don't want to show off too much. I'm only advertising a blue-level inheritance. For now, I'll just use a green entry-level spell tool and put up with it."

It's not that she is arrogant, it's just that her inheritance is so powerful that she can't help but be confident.

In just two days, he completed the step of consolidating his realm, which took others many days to complete, and reached level 5 ahead of schedule. In addition to swallowing crystals for one night, Gu Pan is now a level 6 transcendent.

The Gu family is special. With the blessing of the sword tomb, there will be no so-called bottleneck at the first level. As long as their bodies can withstand it, they can keep upgrading.

Because to them, the first-order seal is more like the 'inheritance of the power passed down from ancestors' rather than an upgrade.

This is what makes their inherited sword tomb different from ordinary ones.

This is even more true for Gu Pan. With the effect of the Great Sword Tomb, this cannot be called an upgrade or inheritance. It should be called - 'Resurrection of the Ancestors'.

The strength has improved by leaps and bounds.

"Haha, although he is very powerful, I am not weak either. Given time, I will definitely be able to surpass him. This is the confidence that the inheritance from my ancestors has given me, quack."

As if he was thinking of someone in his mind, Gu Pan curled the corners of his mouth and laughed, which made several male waiters nearby feel excited.

However, she did not leave. Instead, she clasped her fists towards the elder guarding the hall and said:

"Elder, please prepare another set of protective spells for me."

"What are you doing? Didn't you receive a copy before you broke through? Don't be unreasonable." The elder frowned slightly.

The family is not as wealthy as before. Even a set of white protective spells costs hundreds of thousands. Taking into account the family's usual handling fees, it would cost at least close to 200,000 per set.

For ordinary children of the Gu family, one set per person is already a good configuration after they become extraordinary people.

If you want more, you have to exchange resources. How can you waste them?
Take care of your family and don’t keep idle people!
Gu Pan was prepared, and said calmly, "According to the clan rules, after the Sword Master comes out of retreat, he can advance part of his allowance if needed. Put it in my account first."

“……”Elder.

A few hours later.

Gu Pan came alone under the moonlight to Xinyang Apartment in the northern area of ​​the safe zone according to the address.

83 buildings.

Looking at this apartment building where almost all the floors have been vacated and there is still yellow warning tape next to it.

Gu Pan compared the handwriting on the 100-yuan bill in his hand several times and couldn't help but reveal a suspicious expression.

"Hiss...he lied to me?"

"What about my two million?"

"My aunt embezzled it???"

"Why did she do that?" "Ah this..."

For a moment, Gu Pan's expression became extremely serious, as he had come to a crossroads in his life.

……

……

"Alas, I'm short of contribution points and I'm poor~" Xu Shu turned over.

Tonight, he relied on his status and reluctantly accepted a free dinner.

Then he entered the room on the third floor again in broad daylight. After washing up, he secretly climbed out of the window and climbed up in the same way. He returned to the room on the 12th floor and fell asleep calmly.

It wasn't that he was overly cautious, he was simply all alone in this wasteland, helpless, and if he wasn't careful he would have died countless times already.

If we talk about Xu Shu's survival in this world, isn't it the four words "cautious and prudent" that he relies on?

I closed my eyes and opened them again, and the night passed peacefully.

The Taichu Volume has been refreshed.

[The sun rises, all things revive, welcome back to Taichu Scroll, great master]

Xu Shu climbed back to the third floor without getting tired of it. This luxurious suite had a private bathroom.

As he was simply washing up, a series of knocks on the door interrupted his rare comfort.

"Ok?"

Xu Shu wiped the white foam from the corner of his mouth, feeling suspicious.

I shouldn't run into trouble again this time, right?
Without giving it much thought, he directly opened the Taichu Volume and entered the journey mode.

[Detecting current status...]

[Testing completed. 】

[You are in a bad situation now. You are in trouble...]

Upon hearing this, Xu Shu frowned immediately.

Come again?

But then it showed:
[But this trouble is not directed at you. The person who came to you is Brooke, the manager of the hotel. He brought a woman in her thirties to ask for your help.]

[“My child Maomao is lost. He was here just now. I put him at the door to play in the morning and went to prepare breakfast for everyone. Not long after, Maomao disappeared... Please help me, sir. I will do anything you ask..."]

[The woman is a hotel staff, she begs you with tears in her eyes, and pulls her collar and skirt in an ambiguous way, clearly hinting that these are the most valuable things on her.]

[The child was lost for no apparent reason, but no one was injured. It couldn't be a monster. It's conceivable that some of the people who stayed at the hotel last night became human traffickers, and when they saw the child alone in the morning, they stole him away.]

[You have also been cheated by human traffickers, so you must feel the same way. Regarding the young woman's request, what would you choose:? ]

【You said: "Why don't you take care of the child?"】

[You have already rejected the young woman's request in your heart. You even feel a little unhappy with her. As strong as you are, a powerful legendary warrior, you are cautious every day, fearing that you might do something wrong.]

[How dare she, an ordinary person, leave her child outside so recklessly and go about her business without worrying about anything happening?]

[This is simply an insult to someone like you who follows your heart! ]

[In this case, you choose to let go of the desire to help others and respect the fate of others. ]

[However, you have experienced a lot and are now a smooth old man, no longer the reckless boy you used to be. ]

[You didn’t refuse directly, you chose to say in a relatively tactful way: “I understand. If I encounter this, I will help you get it back.”]

[You neither refuse nor promise, your attitude is very cold and arrogant, keeping people at a distance. ]

[After receiving your reply, the young woman felt that it was not enough, but she did not dare to pester you too much. At least you left her a little hope, and she left with many thanks.]

[Ah? She hinted so clearly, and you just let her go? Boring, I want to see the water flow into a river in the beginning volume.]

[After resolving this little episode, you are full of fighting spirit and ready to attack today. ]

[You came to the nearby ruins, picked up eight steel bars and tied them behind your waist. This is your favorite weapon.]

[When everything is ready, you will head to the border. ]

[This place is more than 100 meters away from the border. You can see some monster footprints scattered on the ground a little further away. You slept very well last night. You like this feeling very much, as if you were sleeping inside the walls of a safe zone.]

[Safe, reliable, and you can get support from the Star Tower at any time. ]

[It seems that you like this feeling of rubbing back and forth on the barrier of life and death, in and out. ]

[After walking less than a mile, you enter a dense jungle, deep and treacherous, with strange noises from time to time, as if there are eyes watching you everywhere.]

[Within ten minutes, you encountered the first wave of enemies. They were five black widow spiders.]

[At this time, five black widows were besieging two female ascites eels, whose stomachs were swollen. They were giving birth to babies through surrogacy.]

[You were overjoyed, and you joined the battle from a distance with your steel gun. You used the throwing technique and pinned one of the black widows to the ground with one shot, but unfortunately you were unable to kill him directly.]

【What are you happy about? 】

[After smelling the scent of humans, both sides gave up the fight and immediately joined forces to attack you. ]

[You advance instead of retreating, you are extremely fierce. You know where the Black Widow's weakness is. You use the "Capture the Mountain" skill you have accumulated after Kuafu chases the sun, grab a spider as big as a water tank that arrives first and punch it into the air. Then you follow up with a set of eight consecutive attacks in the air. The eight spider spears pierce back and forth from eight directions, breaking the weakness and successfully killing it on the spot.]

[As expected of you, you really know Black Widow's body inside and out. 】

[You succeeded once, and you want to repeat the same trick. 】

【However, there are too many of them.】

[Your attack was interrupted, and you soon fell into the most embarrassing situation. You were pinned to the ground and beaten by them. You couldn't use your Kuafu Chasing the Sun, so you could only activate Jingwei Filling the Sea to resist.]

[You can attack or defend, you are very strong. If you were in another profession, you would have been beaten into pieces by now, but you are still holding on. This is the confidence that a wrestler brings you. You are a natural punching bag.]

[You press the button of the Narrow-sleeved Guanyin during the battle, and she begins to sing "Look over here, girl across the street" loudly. After a brief shock, several spiders quickly roll on the ground, spitting out white foam from their mouthparts, and begin to fight against the soul-demanding Sanskrit sound.]

[Awesome! As expected of the Narrow-sleeved Guanyin, she can hold back four Black Widows at the same level.]

[Mental attacks are very effective against them, but the ascites eels are not afraid of them. ]

[Your pressure is greatly reduced, you stand up, and start to attack with a series of punches, ignoring the wounds on your body. The two eels are pregnant, so it's not easy for them to fight. They gradually become exhausted and you chase them and beat them. You are fighting one against two, but you still have the upper hand.]

[They are no match for you and are about to be killed by you. ]

[Just then, a huge mouth suddenly appears from under the water and swallows you whole.]

[Oh, this is a golden catfish that has been lurking for a long time. It is at level two and is good at fishing. It was waiting here for the battle between the black spider and the ascites eel to end. Now that you are here, it is even more of a fisherman who benefits from the conflict between the snipe and the clam.]

[Its gastric juice is enough to melt steel. As strong as you are, you actually persisted for more than ten minutes before it consumed all your food, bite by bite, bit by bit. It couldn't help but blink its big mouth and raise its big tentacles towards you:

[Brother, you smell so good! ]

[You are dead, this journey is over, settlement in progress...]

[Evaluation: Nothing to say, you are really fierce, you rushed out by yourself and blew up the 5+2 alien combination, this is an invincible operation that is enough to scare the extraordinary people of the same level to death. ]

[But you acted like a tiger, but your results are 0/5]

[As I said, if you want to get involved, you need power and background. What good is that if you can fight? ]

[You get the item: Stop giving it away (Normal)]

[Stop Sending Heads (Normal): Use this item to stop your teammates from maliciously sending heads, and force them to retreat ten meters within a certain distance.]

[Number of times opened today 2/3]
