Chapter 186, Mission Unfulfilled
“Lu Yuan is one of your thugs, right, so you know I’ll be going to that school and you’re pretending like you don’t know anything,” Ren Xiaosu asked.
“Ren Xiaosu you stop at the right time ah ……”
“Hahahahaha!”
As a result, Ren Xiaosu didn’t stop laughing for half a day, causing Yang Xiaoguan to slowly laugh as well, as if she was infected.
Right here in the dark sewer, all the light is only the faint candlelight on Ren Xiaosu’s side, obviously the top of their heads may be the dangerous country that has already been occupied by the experimental body, and at any time there will be danger coming, but the two of them still extraordinarily cherish the time of bitterness and joy at this moment.
Yang Xiaoguan laughed and coughed, and after she managed to stabilize her breath, she suddenly asked, “Why did you come back to save me.”
“I forgot my wallet,” Ren Xiaosu said rightfully.
“Hmm,” Yang Xiaoguan responded.
Everyone knew that this reason was lame, but no one poked at it.
Yang Xiaoguan said, “Don’t worry, I won’t tell anyone else about your secret, but maybe you haven’t even realized it yourself, you’re considered very powerful within the Transcendents.”
Yang Xiaoguan recalled the battle scene at that time.
In fact, she wasn’t too sure at that time whether Ren Xiaosu could beat a six-headed experimental body or not, because in her perception, there weren’t many Transcendents who could face six experimental bodies at the same time.
Nowadays, transcendentalists were springing up, but everyone’s abilities hadn’t yet been able to break through a certain tipping point, which the mob defined as whether or not a transcendentalist could ignore the power of the group.
To put it simply and crudely, whether or not they can destroy the consortium’s combat sequence.
Li Shentan is considered half, because his ability needs to rely on hypnotizing the target, which is considered to fight the group with the group, as for his own body’s power may not be as strong.
But one day, a truly powerful individual is bound to appear in the world of Transcendence.
The mob referred to the present as, the dawn of the gods.
While on the rooftop, Yang Xiaoguan saw the ability of Ren Xiaosu’s shadow, an existence that was able to completely crush the experimental body from the aspect of strength and speed, and was unable to completely destroy it even if multiple experimental bodies surrounded it.
But what surprised Yang Xiaoguan the most was actually the knife that both Ren Xiaosu and Shadow possessed.
To be honest, Yang Xiaoguan had never seen a knife that could cut off even an experimental body, it didn’t even look like something that could be produced by modern civilization, it could only be attributed to another ability.
At that time on the rooftop, Ren Xiaosu showed a strong fighting sense, and the so called fighting sense does not mean skill …… but instinct!
Instinct could not be trained.
Training could make the reaction speed increase, could make the strength greater, could make the speed faster, could make the power technique more skillful, but it couldn’t replace instinct.
Some people say that diligence can make up for clumsiness, but only the true elites understand that diligence can never replace talent.
Ren Xiaosu, on the other hand, possessed such a fighting talent.
If it wasn’t for the sudden attack of the experimental body that climbed up later, Ren Xiaosu probably wouldn’t have been injured.
At this moment, Ren Xiaosu took out two compressed cookies, one was handed to Yang Xiaoguan, and one was pinched in his own hand.
Yang Xiaoguan took it without being polite to him, both of them were injured and lost blood, they had to replenish their bodies with the necessary energy.
She looked at the candles on the ground next to her, and suddenly remembered that this seemed to be the first candlelight dinner of her life: “This is a candlelight dinner, right?”
Ren Xiaosu thought for a moment and said, “What is a candlelight dinner?”
Yang Xiaoguan smiled, “Nothing.”
Ren Xiaosu suddenly asked, “I heard you mention Zhang Jinglin just now, what kind of person is Mr. Zhang?”
This question seemed to make Yang Xiaoguan a little difficult, she even searched her mind carefully for words, but she couldn’t find a precise word to describe Zhang Jinglin, “He’s probably the most sober person in this era.”
This reply really made Ren Xiaosu freeze, “What kind of evaluation is that, what exactly is his status in the 178 Barrier?And what exactly is the 178 Barrier guarding?”
“Regardless of whether it’s a ledge or a market town, the consortium will surely try to tell you that in the outermost circle of all ledges are the powerful beasts as well as the terrible creatures that they drive away, as well as the wave of worms,” said Yang Xiaoguan.
“Isn’t it?” Ren Xiaosu froze for a moment.
“No,” Yang Xiaoguan said, “The 178 barriers in the northwest, the 169 barriers on the edge of the northern grasslands, are actually meant to keep out not so much beasts for the circle as people, people who are always trying to invade the interior.”
“Like experimental subjects?” Ren Xiaosu wondered.
“No, like you and me,” Yang Xiaoguan said softly, “Even after the disaster, the wars between humans never stopped because of it, which is probably the most ironic thing of all.”
This was a secret story that Ren Xiaosu had never been exposed to before, so it turned out that outside of the Barrier Circle, there were still humans that existed!
Yang Xiaoguan said, “Zhang Jinglin was the original combat sequence commander of the 178 Barrier, the actual controller of the 178 Barrier, and suddenly disappeared more than ten years ago, many people said that he was tired of the war, but no one knows exactly why. But the people of 178 Barrier are waiting for him to go back, it’s a separate force independent of the Barrier Alliance, in recent years, the Zong family of the Border Plateau wanted to infiltrate 178 Barrier, but as a result of Zhang Jinglin going back this time, the Zong family’s plans were all in vain, that group of killing billets only recognizes Zhang Jinglin, they don’t recognize the money.”
Ren Xiaosu was puzzled, Zhang Jinglin didn’t even seem too much like a soldier ah, weak, how did this kind of person have such a strong background.
But this makes Ren Xiaosu also assured some, Xu Xianchu took that letter of introduction to 178 barriers will certainly be treated favorably, right, their hearts also feel a little ……
Wait a minute, Ren Xiaosu at this time suddenly thought of a problem, his own task of saving the residents how not yet completed it, this is not already the Yang Xiaoguan rescue out?
Could it be that you have to save the barriers in order to meet the definition of saving? No, Ren Xiaosu always felt as if there was a problem somewhere, he looked at Yang Xiaoguan and tried, “Do you have a resident’s ID card for 109 Barrier?”
Yang Xiaoguan froze for a moment and didn’t seem to understand why Ren Xiaosu asked, “No, why do I need a resident’s ID card? If something happens, just let Uncle Lu do it directly, we don’t need a resident’s ID card.”
Ren Xiaosu: “……”
Oh, so you Yang Xiaoguan is not considered a barrier resident!
No wonder the palace was specifically emphasizing on saving the barrier residents at that time, it seems that the palace’s intention was to be afraid that Ren Xiaosu would only save Yang Xiaoguan and not others.
But Ren Xiaosu didn’t understand the spirit of the mission at that time!
Yang Xiaoguan was puzzled at this time, “I felt something fishy at that time, obviously there are still many living people on the streets fleeing for their lives, why would the experimenters split out so many to surround me.”
Ren Xiaosu thought for a moment and said, “Maybe because you’re not a barrier resident.”
Yang Xiaoguan: “???”
