<strong>Chapter 734 Mislead</strong>
On the battlefield, H released dark red energy and fought with the three enemy Cmity Grades at the same time. H felt the pressure immediately. She clenched her teeth and tried to hang on, barely standing her ground using the uniqueness of her Esper ability.
Han Xiao observed for a while and figured out H’s actualbat capability.
These three enemies are normal Cmity Grades around level 180. With H current strength, she’s in the upper-middle ranking among Cmity Grades. She stillcks experience in fighting with Cmity Grades, but due to her unique Esper ability, she can deal with two such enemies at most. Three is too much.
Although H had sufficient strength to be part of the battles that he was in, she was still some distance away from bing the capable assistant that he wanted.
However, with her growth rate, she would be able to ovee that distance very quickly.
As he was pondering, the situation started to gradually worsen for H.
Han Xiao was not worried about H’s safety. Not only did H have the Molding Talent that would lock her health, Aurora was around as well. It would be difficult for her to die even if she wanted to.
At the same time, a small incident was happening on the battlefield that Han Xiao was unaware of.
A small Bloodshed Land assault ship was fleeing in the battlefield, chased by dozens of ck Star Army battleships.
“Quickly run, they’reing again!”
Its shield endured attacks continuously. The spaceship was trembling as the piercing red rm echoed within. On the spaceship, Summer Night Flower and the others were covered in sweat, panicking.
They were being chased by arge group of ck Star Army yers. Phillip had sent their coordinates to all the army members on the battlefield.
Quite a number of yers taking part had seen it and thought, Nice, bonuses!
Thus, Summer Night Flower and the others’ nightmare began. No matter how they changed their location, it was always shown on the radar of the army yers.
Originally, fighting with opposing faction yers was verymon. However, in this skirmish, the number of yers on the ck Star Army’s side was more than a hundred times the number of yers on Summer Night Flower’s side. Hence, it became one-sided, and Summer Night Flower’s group was chased by the other yers.
Summer Night Flower’s mood was extremely bad. He regretted going to Stronghold W-58. He should have requested to be deployed to other strongholds that did not have to face the ck Star Army!
The ck Star Army was full of bad people that were just merciless. He was afraid.
As a yer of the opposing faction, he decided to avoid the ck Star Army in the future. Even if that meant that he had to y alone in a remote stronghold, the game experience would be better than being chased by enemies all the time.
As Summer Night Flower was in a meltdown while being chased by the army yers, the battle between H and three enemy Cmity Grades reached its climax.
The few of them kept shifting the battlefield, moving across the various areas where the fleets were fighting. With continuous explosions, people died nonstop, and gray souls entered H and recovered her energy.
So, this is my current limit.
While fighting, thoughts shed through H’s mind.
This was the first time that she had fought in a true battle with a Cmity Grade. She quickly gainedbat experience and a clearer understanding of her ownbat capability.
Ames and Han Xiao who had trained her all along were much stronger than her, so she could not really measure her strength. Now that she was fighting with normal Cmity Grades, although she had the lower hand, she felt amazing. She could now finally fully utilize her strength in a battle where she was notpletely thrashed.
H thought that she seemed quite strong, but she was not satisfied with that.
I can barely deal with three enemies... but Han Xiao can fight ten at once. There’s still a huge difference... H clenched her teeth.
She saw Han Xiao as the goal to chase after. Now that she felt the pressure of fighting three enemies at the same time, she had a deeper understanding of Han Xiao’sbat capability.
If he was in my ce, the battle would have already ended.
Feeling the difference between the two of them, H clenched her teeth and increased the output of her energy.
On the other side, Manudo wasmunicating with hisrades.
“This woman’s ability is very strange. It gives me a Necromancer feeling, but it’s not really the same.”
“Her energy can cause both physical and psychic damage. After getting hit, even the vitality of my cells was suppressed, and the efficiency of cells creating energy decreased. It’s as if... as if my life force is suppressed.”
“What do you think, Staff Sergeant Jorde?” Manudo asked.
Jorde, who was watching remotely, nodded slowly and said with a serious tone, “I have already saved the video of her battle into the database. Although her ability is strong, it’s not the focus this time. ck Star is the target that you’re supposed to test.”
“But he’s not joining the battle. Does that mean we can retreat?” Manudo asked hastily. He did not want to stay even one second longer near ck Star.
“Maybe it’s because he’s training his subordinates or because of something else,” Jorde said with a deep voice. “Attack harder. As long as this woman’s life is in danger, ck Star will definitely do something.”
Aren’t you just hurrying us to die?
Manudo felt miserable.
The few of them fought intensely for a while. Eventually, H showed a w under the aggressive attacks from three enemies. Manudo’s Cannon Master teammate caught the opportunity. He shot a particle cannon beam that was enhanced with many burst damage abilities right at H’s hasty defense attempt. It shattered her armor and sted her away.
“Er...”
H stopped herself from rolling in the universe. Her body was covered with ck wounds and dead cells. The area around her left shoulder and half of her neck was gone, an injury a normal person would have immediately died from and was considered heavy even for Cmity Grades.
Manudo and his two teammates were just about to chase when Manudo suddenly felt rmed and slowed down behind the other two.
H took a deep breath. Suddenly, thick light shot out from her eyes. Her wounds started to heal as her cells multiplied at an extremely high speed.
The flesh on her neck and her left shoulder grew back in an instant, showing her white skin under the broken armor. Energy was flowing through her entire body, and she was almost back at peak performance.
In the gship, Aurora’s eyes were shining as well. After H recovered, only then did the light in Aurora’s eyes slowly disappear. She quickly gasped for air as if she had just spent quite a lot of energy.
H and Aurora’s Esper abilities had a special connection. Through their blood rtion, Aurora created a life force link between the two of them. If H was too heavily injured, Aurora would send her life force and heal her remotely.
As long as Aurora still had stamina, H would be able to recover at a terrifying speed. Its effect was simr to Han Xiao’s Aurora Character Summon Card.
H fought the battles, and Aurora healed her. The number of times that she could heal depended on her stamina. It was only slightly less powerful than Han Xiao’s health-stamina cycle. When the two sisters fought together, they were almost undefeatable.
Jorde was stunned, and his expression changed slightly—this reminded him of ck Star.
ck Star had this kind of horrifying recovery ability as well!
Could it be that this redhead woman had a special rtionship with ck Star?
Could she be his... daughter?
Initially, Jorde did not take H too seriously, but he suddenly felt that he needed to do thorough research on her.
Manudo and the others stood in ce and were stunned as well.
H felt the overflowing energy in her body, but instead of being happy, she was filled with discontent.
She had been keeping Aurora away from harm, but because of her mistake, Aurora had to use her life force to heal her. She felt that this was her fault... Although Aurora could gain that life force back very quickly, because of what had happened back in the Germinal Organization, this was still a taboo for H.
Just as H was about to attack in rage, arge hand suddenly pressed on her shoulder. She turned around. It was Han Xiao.
“That’s enough. There’s no training value if you carry on. It will just be a battle to see who’s stamina depletes first.”
Han Xiao softly pressed on H’s smooth, soft cheeks. Nanoparticles extended from the tip of his finger and formed a helmet, recing H’s broken helmet and allowing her to speak in themunication channel.
H clenched her teeth and said, “Understood.”
“Leave this to me.”
Han Xiao turned around and looked at the three nervous Cmity Grades.
Manudo was panicking. ck Star finally was going to attack.
This time, Han Xiao suddenly thought of something
The enemies clearly knew of his capabilities, yet they made such a bad attempt at provoking him, so their goal should be to lure him into battle. Of course, this was definitely not because they were kind and sending him free kills.
After thinking for a short moment and recalling Manudo’s nervous expression when provoking him, it then urred to Han Xiao. Jorde was definitely behind this. That little weasel had used Psyker’s psychic weapon on him two months ago, but he had gone to the Pce of Hidden Spells, so he did not take part in any battles for one and a half months. This had made Jorde anxious, so he was using this to test his current state.
Having realized that, Han Xiao had an idea and did not immediately attack. Instead, he connected to Manudo’smunication channel and slowly said, “Are you sure you want to fight me? I don’t know if this is your own decision or someone ordered you to do so, but think about it carefully. People are going to die from this.”
Manudo gulped. The other two did not speak. Jorde did not want to be discovered by Han Xiao, so he did not speak either.
“I’m now giving you guys a chance. As long as you surrender and announce to leave the Bloodshed Land, I won’t do anything to you. What do you say?” Han Xiao said.
“You want me to betray the Bloodshed Land? No way!” the Grade A Cannon Master yelled and immediately fired.
Without even moving, more than 300 Watcher Instruments appeared beside Han Xiao, formed a formation, and created a psionic shield, easily blocking the attack.
Han Xiao shook his head and deliberately said, “What’s so good about Heber? Does he deserve such loyalty from you?”
“He’s the only one I’m willing to follow. How dare you speak of His Excellency Heber like that?” this Cannon Master sneered. He was a direct member of the Bloodshed Land, so he was extremely loyal.
Han Xiao narrowed his eyes and did not speak anymore. He summoned the mechanical army and attacked. It swept over the entire battlefield like a tsunami, scattering all the fleets.
Facing the mechanical army that filled his vision, Manudo felt suffocated. He had no choice but to fight it.
Han Xiao activated Apostilization and joined the battle. He secretly changed the tempo of the battle, increased the attack frequency of all the mechanical soldiers, and sacrificed uracy to do so, deliberately showing impatience.
Of course, normal people would not notice such details, but he believed that the Bloodshed Land would definitely discover these tiny changes with their artificial intelligence’s analytical abilities.
Sometimes, tricking smart people was even easier than using stupid ones. All he had to do was mislead the opponents into the conclusion that he wanted them to have through details, and the opponents would fall for it easily. If they were not cautious enough, Han Xiao’s efforts would all go to waste.
High-level lies are always ny percent real and only ten percent fake. What Han Xiao wanted was to make Jorde specte that he had be weaker.
As for the reason, it was so that he could use this opportunity to take some time off from the secret war and focus on cultivating leeks. This was the most important matter at the moment. Be it advancing to Beyond Grade A or suppressing the Soul Embryo, they all required arge amount of Experience.
He waspletely uninterested in letting his sub-personality be born. It would be best to make sure it never formed.
As soon as Han Xiao struck, the battle became one-sided. Under the True Damage of [Legendary Battle Technique), the Cannon Master was very quickly shattered by the mechanical soldiers. The head of the other teammate was also blown away. Manudo was the only one left barely holding on.
Panicking, Manudo hastily sent a message and said, “Wait, wait, I surrender!”
Han Xiao received the message and stopped the mechanical army. He then waved his hand and pulled Manudo over from afar through the mechanical suit’s force field.
Manudo did not dare resist and let the mechanical soldiers restrain him.
“You’ve made the right choice.” Han Xiao smiled.
Manudo nodded continuously. He had thought it through it was clear that Jorde did not care about his life, which meant that he would die sooner orter in the Bloodshed Land, so he might as well surrender. Furthermore, he did not have another choice if he wanted to live.
Escape from ck Star?
I’m not Hadavy, I can’t do it!
As the high-levelbatants of the enemy were all eliminated, the battle that followed had a clear result. Rexson destroyed Stronghold W-58 and seized the loot.
After H absorbed all the remaining gray souls on the battlefield, she locked herself in her room and digested her first experience of fighting with Cmity Grades.
Jorde was analyzing the recording of Han Xiao’s battle in the headquarters.
Losing a stronghold meant nothing to him; what he cared about at the moment was Han Xiao’s state.
Very soon, he noticed something strange.
“Two months ago, ck Star never asked anyone to surrender and killed every one of our people. Even when he faced just one Cmity Grade, he never showed any mercy. Why did he ask them to surrender?”
Jorde frowned and looked at the recording a few more times.
Before, ck Star’s mechanical army’s attacks were all carefully and precisely calcted.
Today, however, the attack rate of his mechanical army increased visibility, as if he was willing to waste energy to increase the attack speed and gave up some of the precise calctions. As a result, many attackspletely missed.
This change made him feel a sense of... impatience?
“First, he asked our people to surrender, then he was in a hurry to end the battle...” Jorde pondered for a while and suddenly figured it out.
ck Star was trying to reduce the time of the battle, or he did not want to take part in the battle.
These two details made Jorde feel that he could guess Han Xiao’s current state.
Psyker’s psychic weapon might have dealt some kind of continuous damage to ck Star, and if he fought others, the damage would be erged. This was why ck Star acted differently from before.
“My spection should be right!”
The threat of ck Star had decreased!
Having proved that ck Star had be weaker, Jorde was overjoyed. Although he did not know what damage Han Xiao had received, with this discovery, he could daringly adjust his strategies.
