Chapter 697: Delivered to the door
The next morning, Jiang Xiao boarded the plane back to Beijiang province with the bait from the ruins of calamity and shadow.
This time, both the devil and the angel arrived and grabbed one of Jiang Xiaoâs hands.
It was said that the demon had grabbed Jiang Xiaoâs hand, the decoy, because this time, when he was absorbing the shadow Crow star bead, he had absorbed the two star techniques, fantasy Crow (summoning a group of crows) and chaos Crow (extending the duration of the fantasy Crow and causing it to explode), before he absorbed the shadow Crow STAR technique.
This was obviously a waste of two star Slots.
If possible, she would only need the shadow Crow STAR technique to bait Jiang Xiao.
However, there were few trashy star techniques in the world, only trashy Star Warriors.
Unfortunately, the star techniques of the ghost Tiger star bead also occupied three of his Star Slots.
When the ghost Tiger star beads were completely exhausted, Jiang Xiao first absorbed the star techniques sharpness (making his limbs as hard as steel) and swiftness (making his movements and reactions faster) before absorbing the perception STAR technique.
However, to be fair, swiftness was also a good thing. The only star technique that Jiang Xiao didnât really need was the âsharpnessâ STAR technique. After all, cold weapons were Jiang Xiaoâs priority rather than his fists and legs.
It was said that the angel also grabbed Jiang Xiaoâs hand because Jiang Xiaoâs star map was really very compatible with the star techniques of the fugitive series!
Just like Xia Yan, Jiang Xiao finally felt the so-called âtransparentâ feeling.
Back then, Han Jiangxue said that she felt âtransparentâ when she absorbed the flames from the pyrotechnician. At that time, Han Jiangxue had absorbed two star techniques.
When Xia Yan absorbed the star techniques of the Desperado series, she also felt that she had a clear understanding of them. Although she didnât manage to acquire two star techniques in one star technique due to various reasons, she managed to acquire the âblade of deathâ STAR technique by spending very few star beads.
With the qualifications of Nine Star Slots, he actually managed to acquire the core STAR technique of the Desperado family from the ninth Desperado star bead: The blade of death!
This is a platinum quality STAR technique!
The extremely compatible star map and Jiang Xiaoâs understanding of the flower blade star map allowed him to experience the clarity of absorbing star beads. The compatible star map even seemed to have broken through the limits of his qualifications.
Jiang Xiao initially thought that he would give up on green glow and be patient. To his surprise, the Angelâs hand was still very soft and tender. At least, it was much more comfortable to touch than the devil âs.
At this point, the melee fighter, douzhan Jiang Xiao, was completely formed.
The shadow Crow series, the ghost Beast series, the Desperado series, and the White Ghoulâs double divine skills created an agile battle that could transform, fly, and move extremely fast.
All in all, Jiang Xiao was rather satisfied with his STAR technique combination.
Whether it was a mule or a horse, they would know after they ran around.
After Jiang Xiao sent the bait to the snowfield holy ground, he played with the White ghouls for a few days before returning home in jiangbin city. He then called second last.
Unfortunately, second last didnât answer it.
Jiang Xiao received a call from second last while he was waiting for his flight at the airport.
Upon hearing second lastâs voice again, Jiang Xiao was filled with emotions. She didnât go home for the new year this time, and Jiang Xiao felt as if he hadnât seen her for a few years.
Upon hearing second lastâs exhausted voice, Jiang Xiao couldnât help but say,ââIf you need me, let me know at any time.â
A muffled voice could be heard from behind the mask, only to be greeted by second lastâs straightforward words.ââWhatâs the matter?â
Jiang Xiao got up and walked out of the waiting area. He then came to a corner and said,ââThereâs a problem with black-and-white candle and Bamboo Bear. These two guys seem to have merged.â
âHuh?â second last asked.
Although second last wasnât standing in front of Jiang Xiao, he could already imagine how surprised she was from her tone of voice.
Jiang Xiao said with certainty,âyes, Iâve been putting the two of them in my ruins of calamity and shadow to play. I have to go in and feed them. I found out that theyâre in a state of fusion. The bamboo bear seems to have a hat on its head and a black and white candle on its head.â
After a moment of silence, second last said,âblack-and-white candleâs body is very soft and it changes shape very easily. Are you sure itâs the fusion of two star beasts? itâs not just a simple game.â
Jiang Xiao said,âIâm not sure. After all, two star beasts can be separated at will.â However, when Zhu Xiong used the STAR technique round bamboo, he added the ice flame (ice candle flame) effect of the black-and-white candle flame. â
âMm âŚâ After a moment of silence, second last asked,âwhat are you thinking?â
Jiang Xiao smiled and said,âI want to keep my star pets. I said that theyâve merged. On the one hand, itâs because of the special additional effect. On the other hand, I found out that I can put both star pets into the same star slot.â
After a long while, second last said in a hoarse voice,ââIf you want to keep your astral pet, we have to report to our superiors in time.â
Jiang Xiao nodded and was about to say something when he was interrupted by a female voice.ââPassengers heading to the capital, please take note that you are boarding flight CA1448 now. Please take your belongings with you and show your boarding pass âŚâ
âYouâre not in the capital,âsecond last said while listening to the background.
Jiang Xiao answered,âah, I went to Tianjin for a mission. The bait died, so I went home and sent the bait back to the snowfield.â
Second last said,âchange your visa. Come to Jin city, long gan province. Iâll bring you along to report to the higher-ups. Thatâs better.â Youâre not qualified to report this kind of thing to the higher-ups. â
In fact, second last had always been displeased with Jiang Xiaoâs decision to stay in school. She simply summoned him regardless of the fact that he was still in the middle of the semester.
Since she was asking for a favor, Jiang Xiao naturally accepted her call.
However, to Jiang Xiaoâs surprise, the excuse he made two days ago came true this time.
âYou werenât outside?â Jiang Xiao asked curiously.
Second last said,âyes, Iâm also back to report the situation. Since youâre back, Iâll take you out for a walk.â
Jiang Xiao was dumbfounded.
What did he mean by âa roundâ?
Do you really think Iâm a bird?
I can be a bird, but can you become the old man in slippers?
Jiang Xiao immediately changed his flight ticket. Two hours later, there would be a flight to Jincheng, which was rather coincidental.
Unfortunately, the flight was delayed by more than four hours âŚ
It was just a coincidence.
It was already past Sevenoâ clock in the evening when he arrived at Jincheng, the capital of longgan province again. The poor Jiang Xiao was all alone and there was no one to pick him up this time.
Jiang Xiao called for a taxi and headed straight to the small town where he had been awarded the crescent moon medal before. Hence, he was rather familiar with the place.
The car stopped at the side of the street and Jiang Xiao alighted, only to be greeted with a clear view of the road.
The south side of this Street was filled with the life of a citizen. The entire Southern Urban area to the South of the street was the same.
On the north side of the street was the military compound. It was extremely quiet and solemn, and soldiers could be seen standing guard at the entrance.
Jiang Xiao was dressed in a gaudy hoodie, jeans, a cap, and a mask. While rummaging through his school bag for his identification documents, he walked towards the soldiers who were standing guard at the entrance of the courtyard. He looked like a lost tourist âŚ
âAI! Baby!â On the other side of the street, an old man who was playing chess at the entrance of a restaurant shouted at Jiang Xiao while holding a cigarette in his mouth.âCome back, come back.â He kept waving at Jiang Xiao.
âUh âŚâ Jiang Xiao turned around and nodded at the enthusiastic old man before handing the document to the soldier.
After a while, a soldier came out of the Sentry post and walked in with Jiang Xiao.
On the other side, the cigarette in the old manâs mouth fell, and he was dumbfounded.ââWeâre going in just like this?â
The old man who was playing Chinese Chess said teasingly,âWhich familyâs young master is he? heâs the second generation of a military family.â
Strictly speaking, this sentence was correct.
However, Jiang Xiao was the second generation of the wasteland reclaimers and he entered through the gate of the camp area âŚ
Under the guidance of the soldier, Jiang Xiao walked into a building. As soon as he went up the first floor, he began to feel a sense of panic when he turned around and went up the second floor.
Following the dangerous aura, Jiang Xiao raised his head and saw a huge figure standing on the slow-walking platform. She had her arms crossed and was looking down at Jiang Xiao.
âItâs done. â Second last nodded slightly, clearly speaking to the soldier. However, she kept her long and narrow eyes fixed on Jiang Xiao.
Jiang Xiao felt like he was being targeted by a beast of another dimension.
Under his clothes, the fine hair on his skin had already stood up.
The truth was that cats had to be cozied up often, otherwise they would be very unfamiliar.
Perhaps this was her unique characteristic. Whether it was an opponent or a teammate, she would never hold back and would not let anyone have an easy time.
The soldier turned around and left. Second last looked down at Jiang Xiao and nodded at him before saying,ââYou gave me more choices.â
âWhat do you mean?â Jiang Xiao asked.
Second lastâs eyes were bright and she looked like a ferocious beast in the dark under the dim light.
She said in a hoarse voice,âIâm thinking about how to play the cards in my hand.â 10,âJ,â and âQ.ââ Or you can look for outside help. Right now, it can be a King or a 2. â
Jiang Xiao asked weakly,âare you bored in kangkgold? How did you learn to play poker? Fighting with the shadow Crow and the Tengu every day?â
Second last was speechless.
Looking at second lastâs dumbfounded expression, Jiang Xiao finally felt a sense of familiarity.
âWhoâs 2?âJiang Xiao asked.
Second last said,âheavenly Hound, shadow Crow, or the great sage.â
Jiang Xiao nodded and said,âwell said! I choose hou Mingming!â
Jiang Xiao found the familiar feeling again, and second last also caught up with his rhythm. She smiled and said in a hoarse voice,ââAlright, letâs pay black then.â
Jiang Xiao was speechless.
Second last turned around and walked up the stairs.
Jiang Xiao chased after her and asked,ââWhat kind of mission is it?â
Second last said,âthereâs a force trying to assassinate the Germany of conkkin.â
Jiang Xiao asked in surprise,âah? Are they the remnants of dark hall?â
Second last said softly,âmaybe, maybe not. Weâre not sure yet. What we know is that theyâve already succeeded three times.â
Jiang Xiaoâs mouth widened in shock and he thought, so ⌠Was he that domineering? What was their goal? Wasnât conkkin in enough chaos? In a place like this, without our help, wouldnât the country be destroyed?
Even with our help, you wonât be able to get up without a few decades, right? Conkkinâs place is barren of resources, and thereâs nothing to get âŚâ
Second last said softly,âperhaps some people donât want to see us help conkkin or the neighboring countries. Perhaps those people want to kill the chicken to warn the monkeys, to let these countries see the price they have to pay for asking us for help. â
Jiang Xiao was stunned for a moment. After some thought, he said,ââAre you serious?â
Second last said,âa guess.â
Jiang Xiao scratched his head and asked,âwhat do you want me to do? Help you investigate? Iâm not good at this. Tell me where the enemy is and Iâll go fight them. Iâm good at this. â
Second last glanced at Jiang Xiao coldly and said,ââThere are many people who are good at this. Itâs not your turn.â
Jiang Xiao pursed his lips and felt aggrieved.
Second last stopped in front of the door of a dormitory and tilted her head slightly.ââI need a world-class medical Star Warrior and a loyal soldier with excellent quality. I only have one subordinate, Fu hei, but his style makes me worried. I came back here to report the situation and also to ask for people. I didnât expect you to come to me yourself. â
Jiang Xiao grinned and thought, what a Cannonball.
However, second last wasnât a hypocrite and what she said was the truth. At least, that was what she thought in her heart. Jiang Xiao was also very satisfied to be able to gain her recognition.
Jiang Xiao removed the sugar coat and said comfortably,ââWhat do you want me to do?â
âBodyguard,â second last said.
Jiang Xiao was dumbfounded.
What kind of mission is this? The duration of the guarding mission could be long or short. If they had to guard for three years, who could bear it?
I still had to attend the wedding, but by the time I finished my mission, hai Tianqing and Fang Xingyunâs child had already been born.
Jiang Xiao said meekly,âIâm not world-class. I was just lucky to win the World Championship. Besides, those contestants are all nobodies in the Galaxy stage. They donât count at all.â âIâm still a student, Iâm still a child. Those contestants âŚâ They were all ⌠Theyâre all giving in to me âŚâ
