Chapter 101: That Strange Lightning Bee
The leader felt his head buzz.
Although this was only a puppet, all kinds of pain would still be reflected on his main body. However, the pain would be weakened.
If the puppet died, the pain would also be very intense, comparable to the pain of childbirth.
This was also a small flaw of the Puppet Manipulation Technique.
The leader’s eyes widened in disbelief. “You… you’re a Seventh Realm martial artist?!”
!!Xu Xuan, Lu Luo, and Wen Xiong also turned around and stared at Shield Ghost in shock.
However, before they could speak, Flame Explosion was the first to shout.
“Shield Ghost! You also advanced to the Seventh Realm?! You actually didn’t tell me! I thought we were close brothers!”
All along, Lin Xuan had deliberately made Flame Explosion’s personality calm and steady.
However, this time, his tone was already slightly angry and questioning.
He seemed to be really angry.
A helpless voice sounded from under Shield Ghost’s black armor. “You didn’t tell me that you advanced to the Seventh Realm either. Now, we’re even.”
Lin Xuan chuckled in his heart.
His performance was quite good.
Compared to the shock of Lu Luo and the other two, the leader’s expression was even more exaggerated.
Why?
How was this possible?
It had only been a short while since the defense battle of White Crane Town.
Shield Ghost and Flame Explosion had actually both advanced to the Seventh Realm.
Generally speaking, if there was no imminent danger, martial artists would not choose to advance to the Seventh Realm in a hurry. Instead, they would farm profession scrolls day and night in the Sixth Realm mystic realm.
They would try their best to get a higher quality one that was suitable for them.
Given the extremely low drop rate of peerless golden profession scrolls, martial artists were already quite satisfied with precious purple profession scrolls.
Even if Shield Ghost and Flame Explosion were lucky enough to obtain high-quality profession scrolls that were suitable for them…
Where did they get their experience points?
They couldn’t possibly create experience points out of thin air, right?
Unless…
The leader thought of his fortuitous encounter when he was still rising.
In a mystic realm in the High Heaven Plains, he found a mysterious cave that no one had stepped into and a peerless golden Energy Pearl.
The Energy Pearl could ignore everything and increase one’s level.
The leader had also relied on the Energy Pearl he had found back then to increase his level and obtain the advantage, standing out from the group of High Heaven Plains martial artists.
Since the High Heaven Plains mystic realm had such a treasure, it was very likely that the other mystic realms also had similar treasures.
It might not have the exact same name, but it might still be given a name that was similar to Energy Pearl or Energy Essence.
These things were like the treasures under the cliff that were mentioned in novels. Once one obtained them, one would be able to rise to greater heights.
“Could it be that Shield Ghost and Flame Explosion were also very lucky and found the Energy Pearl?”
The leader thought about it and could only guess.
Otherwise, it was impossible to explain the situation of Shield Ghost and Flame Explosion leveling up like rockets.
“Everyone, don’t let this guy escape!”
Shield Ghost roared and rushed forward with the Dragon Hunter Shield.
Lu Luo and Wen Xiong also used their long-range skills to support from afar. Xu Xuan used her recovery skill and waited to heal Shield Ghost.
After all, they were only Sixth Realm martial artists. If they fought Seventh Realm martial artists at close range, it would be very easy for them to die.
Since the outcome had been decided, there was naturally no need to exchange blows with the other party.
The leader’s eyes flickered fiercely and he finally lost his composure.
The situation had already developed to the point where it was completely out of control.
His greatest trump card, his ethereal body, had already entered cooldown.
The martial artists he had brought with him were all dead.
However, the other party had two Seventh Realm martial artists.
The situation was completely reversed!
His goal could no longer be achieved.
Although the leader’s main body was a Ninth Realm martial artist, this puppet was only at the third level of the Seventh Realm. It was almost impossible for it to bypass Shield Ghost’s protection to kill Flame Explosion.
The leader looked deeply at Shield Ghost and Flame Explosion. “Next time, I won’t give you a chance.”
As soon as he finished speaking, his body suddenly turned into wood and scattered on the ground.
Before anyone could react, the wood quickly ignited and burned to ashes.
During this time, Xu Xuan tried to throw an Icicle over, hoping to stop the burning wood.
However, for some reason, the flames seemed to be able to burn without oxygen, fuel, and temperature. No matter how Xu Xuan tried, she could not extinguish the flames.
A few minutes later, the wood quickly burned out. When the night wind blew, the black ashes dissipated into the night.
“Not a real person?” Lu Luo frowned.
“We don’t even know who he is.” Xu Xuan also frowned deeply.
Lin Xuan walked over and nodded. “The only thing I know is that the other party is very likely a High Heaven Plains martial artist. Otherwise, it would be impossible for Yang Wei and the other two to be among them.”
Xu Xuan and the other two nodded, agreeing with his guess.
Lu Luo said, “We still have to wait for Director Chu, Division Commander Ye, and the others to come out. We can only find out the other party’s true identity after they report this to the headquarters.”
Lin Xuan turned around and looked at the endless wilderness under the night sky.
After the three Seventh Realm martial artists died, the prying eyes in the night seemed to have decreased greatly.
The death of Seventh Realm martial artists clearly played a very good role in warning others.
The news that Shield Ghost and Flame Explosion had both become Seventh Realm martial artists made many members of the Construction Division in Dragon Sea City extremely excited.
In the next few days, there were no more martial artists attacking Dragon Sea City.
Their restless hearts were clearly suppressed.
If there were no Seventh Realm martial artists in Dragon Sea City, these people who wanted to attack the city would naturally have the complete advantage.
However, now that Shield Ghost and Flame Explosion had appeared, they had no choice but to understand their limits.
Although treasures were important, their lives were clearly more important.
…
On a night six days later, Chu Pengcheng and the others crossed the door of light of the mystic realm and reappeared in Dragon Sea City.
The seven of them all looked very tired and had varying degrees of injuries on their bodies. However, none of them were seriously injured or died in the newly-advanced Falling Thunder Mountain mystic realm.
Moreover, everyone’s faces were filled with joy.
The exploration in the Falling Thunder Mountain mystic realm this time really made them overjoyed.
“Now that I’m out, I still feel a little dazed.” Silver Fox laughed and said, “The exploration process went by so smoothly!”
Black directly said, “Of course. It’s impossible for an Elemental Mage like you to rush to the front. How dare you say that when you’ve been protected by us?”
Silver Fox :”…”
Chu Pengcheng also laughed. “However, what Silver Fox said does make sense. The exploration this time was much smoother than I imagined. We almost didn’t encounter any particularly important danger the entire time.”
“We’ve already determined the location of the safety station in the Falling Thunder Mountain. We can build the safety station the next time we enter.”
“After the mystic realm advanced, there were many new types of demon beasts, all of which have been recorded.”
“The map of the Falling Thunder Mountain is also halfway done. Other than the high-risk areas that we did not enter, it can be said that we have almost completed 90% of our mission objectives.”
Bai Xinghe, Black, and the two Seventh Realm martial artists from Yang City nodded.
They were already very happy that nothing had happened to them and they had even completed their objectives.
Ye Yuqiu frowned slightly, as if she was thinking about something.
Chu Pengcheng asked, “Director Ye, do you still have some doubts?”
Ye Yuqiu rubbed her temples. The image of that Lightning Bee kept appearing in her mind.
“That Lightning Bee feels strange. It seems to bring us good luck every time it appears.”
“The first time it appeared to attack us, it helped us indirectly avoid the path of the violent demon beasts.”
“The second time it appeared and attacked us, it allowed us to avoid a large number of lightning bolts that suddenly erupted in the area in front.”
“The third time…”
Ye Yuqiu said helplessly, “I even have a feeling that the Lightning Bee is a human in disguise. What do you guys think?”
“Hahaha!”
The other six people could not help but laugh.
Silver Fox said, “Director, you worry too much.”
Chu Pengcheng said, “Then how can a living person become a small Lightning Bee? Moreover, even if that bee is disguised as a human, why would the other party help us?”
The director of the Yang City Construction Division suddenly rubbed his chin and said seriously, “However, Director Ye’s words remind me that there’s a profession called the Great Druid.”
“After the Great Druid advances to the Ninth Realm, he can temporarily transform into a bird or beast. Moreover, he can also communicate with demon beasts. Others can’t tell that the other party is a human at all.”
Black smiled and said, “According to what you just said, that could only be accomplished by Ninth Realm martial artists. However, higher-level martial artists have never been allowed to enter the Falling Thunder Mountain mystic realm. They will just be struck by lightning.”
The director of Yang City chuckled. “I was just joking.”
Ye Yuqiu was helpless. “Let’s report this to the headquarters. It feels a little strange.”
“Director! You’re out!”
At this moment, a member on duty passed by while patrolling. He was pleasantly surprised to see Chu Pengcheng and the others standing here calmly.
In a short period of time, the members of the Dragon Sea City Construction Division quickly got up from their sleep and hurriedly welcomed Chu Pengcheng and the others.
In order to figure out the changes in the Falling Thunder Mountain, they had stayed in the dangerous environment of the Falling Thunder Mountain mystic realm for six days. They could definitely be said to have contributed greatly to the Construction Division.
In the Construction Division Food Hall.
Chu Pengcheng and the others, who had already washed up, were having a meal here.
Lin Xuan and the other Sixth Realm martial artists were also among them.
“What? Shield Ghost and Flame Explosion are already Seventh Realm martial artists?!” Chu Pengcheng was surprised and delighted. He stared at the two of them and was overjoyed.
Good news came one after another!
“That’s right. If not for the two of them becoming Seventh Realm martial artists, our Dragon Sea City Construction Division would probably have been destroyed that night.” Xu Xuan sighed.
Lu Luo’s small face was solemn. “If we had lost or even died that night, the martial artists from the other organizations would definitely have rushed up like hyenas.”
Ye Yuqiu praised, “Shield Ghost, Flame Explosion! As expected of the members of our White Crane Town!”
Chu Pengcheng coughed lightly. “Si Ye, the two of them advanced in my Dragon Sea City. They should be members of the Construction Division in my Dragon Sea City, right?”
Ye Yuqiu snorted. “Nonsense! I even advanced in the territory of the Knights of Truth. Could it be that I’m a member of the Knights of Truth?”
“Hahahahaha! Director Chu, you’re too much. You’re already trying to rope in people?” Silver Fox laughed loudly.
Bai Xinghe had always been serious. At this moment, he could not help but say, “After all, Shield Ghost and Flame Explosion are so powerful. It’s very normal for Director Chu to love talent.”
The dining table was immediately filled with happy air.
