Li Shuyi nodded. She still had a combat skill bar, so she chose to use it immediately.
After closing her eyes slightly, Li Shuyi opened them again. "I only learned one move."
Bai Xiaowen saw the information that Li Shuyi had shared with him.
"Wo Huo Huo Killing Technique — Dagger of Sanction (Fake): One-star skill. After a short period of charging, charge forward and perform two consecutive slashes in front of you. Adds moderate physical damage and bleeding effect. Requires a one-handed melee weapon. The faster the attack, the shorter the charging time. Skill cooldown time is two minutes. Requires two points of mental strength. "
Bai Xiaowen nodded and said, "After all, it's a treasure chest that's seriously overloaded. It's worth it to be able to learn one move. Moreover, this skill adds multiple stages of damage judgment. It's very compatible with your profession passive and talent passive. Alright, let's go back and turn in the quest. "
Before Bai Xiaowen left, he glanced at the roof on the side of Tōjō-ji.
After the two of them left, two heads popped out from the roof.
"Jesus above … Yamazaki Ryuji was killed by a man and a woman! Are those two Awakened ones? How can they be so strong? "
"Biggie, I used the detection skill on my glasses to see their levels. They were only Level 2! That man only reached Level 3 after killing Yamazaki Ryuji! To be able to kill a Level 5 leader, Yamazaki Ryuji, I swear on my grandfather's name that those two must be Heroes! "
“Fu-ck! With Yamazaki Ryuji dead, our errands in Matsuzaki Society are nothing … Wes, you should've listened to me and fought those two! We're higher level than them! "
"Biggie, are you stupid? With our standard Level 3 abilities, how can we steal the prey of two Heroes? Please, I haven't lived long enough yet! "
"I'm not talking about stealing the prey. I'm talking about helping Yamazaki Ryuji kill those two!"
"Bullsh * t, do you think they weren't prepared? That summoner's mental strength is definitely over 30 points. He must've noticed us a long time ago … His last glance was a warning! Fortunately, we didn't make a move. Otherwise, the best outcome would've been to implement the loser's clause, hand over a sum of Psionic Points, and sneak out of the Spiritual Realm … "
…
"Those two people are quite smart. They didn't come out to mess things up. I was already prepared to use the Copper Token once, "Bai Xiaowen said.
Li Shuyi was still a little scared. "Before we set off, Dad reminded me again and again that we won't enter the Spiritual Realm through the ticket like we did during the class-change mission. We'll cross paths with other awakened ones … Xiaowen, we must be careful."
Bai Xiaowen smiled and said, "Don't think too much, Shu Yi. Because of the level matching, the other awakened ones who entered the King of Fighters world are at most level three or four. Unless they are Rare Elites or Awakened Heroes, they are no threat to us. "
On the way back to the Morioka Group's encampment, Bai Xiaowen silently chanted to upgrade the Black Soul Stone.
"Growth-type special equipment: Black Soul Stone has been upgraded. Current growth: 106 Soul Essence."
"Equipment additional skill: Return of the Dead has been strengthened. Please choose the enhancement effect! "
Bai Xiaowen opened the Strengthening Map Interface of the Black Spirit Stone. Originally, there were only two layers of the Strengthening Tree, but now the third layer had been unfolded.
"Strengthening Option 1: All attributes of the Shadow Assassin + 3. Requires 50 Soul Essence. "
"Strengthening Option 2: New summoned creature of the Corpse Demon race: Zombie * 1. Zombie has the Normal template. Requires 50 Soul Essence. "
"Strengthening Option 3: New summoned creature of the Blood race: Vampire * 1. Vampire has the Elite template. Requires 100 Soul Essence. "
"Strengthening Option 4: New summoned creature of the Bone race: Skeleton Mage * 1. Skeleton Mage has the Elite template. Requires 100 Soul Essence. "
Bai Xiaowen looked at the four strengthening options.
He now had 106 Soul Essence. He thought it was a lot, but when he saw the numbers of 50 and 100 for each strengthening option, he deeply felt that he was poor. When it came time to use the money, he regretted not having enough! He still didn't kill enough Bosses usually.
He had to save some money and try to strengthen as much as possible. Increasing his combat power meant not thinking about accumulating Soul Essence and waiting for the fourth layer of the Strengthening Map to be unlocked.
The first option that Bai Xiaowen eliminated was Strengthening Option 3.
According to the known information, Vampires were generally close-combat agile monsters and overlapped with the position of the Shadow Assassin. Bai Xiaowen now had a lot of close-combat summoned creatures. If he had more, there wouldn't be enough space. When besieging the Boss, the summoned creatures would have to watch the show from the outside.
The next option that was eliminated was Strengthening Option 2.
There was no doubt that Zombie was a meat-shield monster. In the past, Bai Xiaowen might have chosen it. But now, after Bai Xiaowen had the telepathy ability, he could fully utilize the shield blocking ability of the Skeleton Swordsman. The need for a meat-shield monster was not so urgent.
Moreover, Zombie was only a Normal template. It occupied a close-combat position and was slow … It was really not a good choice.
After eliminating the two options, Bai Xiaowen had to choose the remaining two options. The Shadow Assassin's attributes + 3 was a very powerful increase. 50 Soul Essence was definitely worth it. The Skeleton Mage was a long-range spellcaster. It could fill in some of the magic damage output that the team urgently needed. As an Elite template, 100 Soul Essence was not expensive.
According to the principle of maximizing combat power, Bai Xiaowen first spent 100 Soul Essence and chose Strengthening Option 4: Skeleton Mage.
"Xiaowen, it seems like someone is following us."
Suddenly, Li Shuyi's voice was heard.
Bai Xiaowen's mental scan had already found something, but he didn't say it out loud. He waved his hand and said, "It's just a small fry from the Matsuzaki Society. Don't worry about it."
Just like that, the two returned to the Morioka Gumi's headquarters and met Morioka Masao again.
"One of the three generals of the Matsuzaki Society, Takaichi Matsumoto … is dead."
Bai Xiaowen went straight to the point. "With the Morioka Gumi's intelligence network, you should have already received the news, right?"
Morioka Masao nodded heavily and said, "That's right! We, the Morioka Gumi, are well aware of Shiroyashi-san's strength. Please accept our gratitude, Shiroyashi-san! "
Morioka Masao's attitude became more serious. The way he addressed Bai Xiaowen also changed from "Shiroyashi-kun" to the more respectful "Shiroyashi-san."
