I Can Enhance My Talents Using Unlimited Skill Points Novel - Chapter 217

Chapter 217: Rescue (I)

In the blink of an eye, three days had passed.

Fanghua City was a medium-sized city in the southwest corner of Jiangnan province.

This place happened to be in the center of the area Chen Yiming was in charge of, so it would undoubtedly be chosen as their base.

As it was close to the catacombs, the civilian factions there were quite tough.

In the civilian martial arts world, there was originally a medium-sized faction that was led by someone who had mastered the transformation of internal force, and there were nearly 100 ordinary warrior factions.

Facing the threat of the giant steel-spear spiders, there were a total of three city guardians who had mastered the transformation of their internal force, including one who had been temporarily transferred over from the central city.

In addition, the military had not only doubled in numbers, but there were also more than 50 ordinary warriors.

Coupled with the support from the cities in the center and Chen Yiming who had an unbeatable battle record, the overall martial arts strength of Fanghua City was much higher than that of other cities of the same size.

At a park in the east of the city, a dark green military vehicle stopped at the entrance.

The door to the front passenger seat opened, and a man and a woman alighted. The man was wearing a military uniform, and there were many wrinkles on his face. From his appearance, he seemed to be a middle-aged man.

…

In addition, the man had a tall and straight figure. His hands were covered in calluses, and his entire body exuded a masculine aura.

The woman beside him was much younger. She had a young face with delicate features, and her figure was so curvy that even her loose military uniform could not completely hide it.

However, the two of them were actually of the same rank although the difference in their ages was huge. Clearly, this young woman was not an ordinary person.

The two of them stood at the entrance of the villa. The young woman looked curiously at the tightly shut door and asked, “Is the person living here the person Jinzhou City assigned to us?”

Xie Weilin happened to be on a mission three days ago, so she had heard some information about Chen Yiming from the others.

“That’s right,” the middle-aged man, He Gang, said solemnly.

“Is that true? Could that person from Jinzhou City have been fooled?” Xie Weilin asked again.

She found it difficult to accept such an extreme result. After all, even she, who came from an extraordinary background, could not do it. The other party was a few years younger than her, so no matter how she looked at it, it seemed to be a lie created by the Myriad Phenomena Sect.

“Who knows? In any case, I don’t believe it.

There are many disciples from large sects on the mountain who only have a high cultivation level but not actual combat strength,” He Gang said calmly.

Then, he added, “For example, both you and I are at the warrior realm. Are you confident that you can defeat me in a life-and-death battle?”

The mutant beasts lived in an environment where they fought all year round and had developed ferocious techniques. If they were really that easy to deal with, humans would have wiped them out from the wilderness long ago.

Chen Yiming had apparently killed many mutant beasts that had mastered the transformation of internal force before he was even 20 years old. If they hadn’t seen it with their own eyes, no one would have believed it.

“…”

Xie Weilin felt a little awkward when she heard this.

Her background was comparable to that of a true disciple of a large sect, and she spent most of her time cultivating. When she fought mutant beasts, she almost always fought those that were weaker than her and had never experienced a life-and-death battle.

Her combat strength was just as He Gang had said.

Once the topic was brought up, it was like a floodgate had been opened.

“I’ve participated in the war with the mutant beasts for more than 20 years. I’ve seen all kinds of situations.

There was once a large sect that secretly sent their elders to help in order to promote a certain disciple.

In the end, the mutant beast was indeed killed by that disciple, but it was only the finishing blow,” He Gang said angrily. He even gave Xie Weilin a meaningful glance.

“…”

Xie Weilin’s embarrassment continued.

If this matter was looked into carefully, her own achievements would also not be able to stand up to further investigation.

However, no matter which era it was, one’s circumstances at birth played an important role, allowing one to have talent, resources, and guidance. From the start, one could widen the gap between themselves and most other people.

“According to the information released by the bigshot in Jinzhou City, he started practicing martial arts at the age of 12, entered the disciple realm at the age of 13, became a warrior candidate at the age of 15, became a warrior at the age of 17, mastered the transformation of internal force at the age of 30, and completed the fusion of internal force at the age of 50.

This Chen Yiming is not even 20 years old, but he has already reached the level of that bigshot when he was in his thirties. Do you think that’s possible?”

He Gang used an example to further prove his point.

As a tough guy in the military, He Gang had started out as an ordinary soldier and had experienced countless life-and-death battles and only broken through to the warrior realm after having terrifying near-death experiences.

The biggest taboo to him was to fake things and cause a huge mess for others to clean up.

“…So are we still going in?” Xie Weilin asked again.

“Hmph! Isn’t that obvious? How can military orders be taken lightly?

Regardless of whether the other party really has the skill or if they are just faking things, we still have to do what we should do,” He Gang said angrily.

Xie Weilin’s question made him furious.

There was already a person with connections beside him, and there was a high chance that there was another similar person inside.

Subconsciously, He Gang’s dislike for Chen Yiming intensified.

Towards the end, He Gang gritted his teeth and said, “Although Fanghua City’s strength has almost doubled, handing over such a large area to a young kid is simply treating this like a game.

In my opinion, something will happen sooner or later. When I get back, I’ll immediately report this to Jiangnan City.”

“This… It’s not good to report someone of a higher level, right? Can’t we just treat the other party as someone who’s here to make up the numbers?” Xie Weilin asked weakly.

“Compared to the safety of the people in several human cities, any punishment is nothing for me.”

He Gang glared at her.

“Alright then. Calm down. I’ll go knock on the door.”

Xie Weilin took the initiative to interrupt the conversation.

The villa was very large and wide. Its length extended across two intersections, and from the outside, it looked like it had covered an area of at least five to six acres. It was quiet inside, as if no one lived there.

“Mr. Chen, are you in? We’re from the military. We were ordered to provide information to you to help clear out the giant steel-spear spiders,” Xie Weilin shouted as she pressed the doorbell.

After a while, the door opened.

A handsome young man walked out calmly.

“What is it?”

The mission he had received from Lin Qianfan was to eliminate the giant steel-spear spiders that had appeared under the support of the military.

The giant steel-spear spiders were underground creatures. However, there was not much food below the ground, so their large numbers could not survive underground.

“He’s really too young.”

When Xie Weilin saw him with her own eyes, she sighed in her heart at the fact that he was even younger than she had imagined. She felt a sort of connection with him.

They were the same kind of people, so they should try to understand and forgive each other’s circumstances as well as show respect to each other.

“Near Lintong City, 50 kilometers northeast of Fanghua City, a large number of giant steel-spear spiders have been discovered. It’s suspected that Lintong City has been targeted by the giant steel-spear spiders.”

Without waiting for Xie Weilin to explain further, He Gang stepped forward and delivered the information word by word.

“No problem. We’ll set off immediately.”

Chen Yiming nodded.

From the beginning to the end, he had a calm expression on his face and did not ask for any details. He gave off the impression that he was either too young and conceited or that he was very confident in his own strength.

When Xie Weilin heard this, her face was filled with worry. “There might be a mistake in the orders from the higher-ups. Why don’t you come with us to the military headquarters first? Let’s sit down and formulate a detailed battle plan.”

The order from the military was to send out two military warriors to provide support from the side. No matter how one looked at it, it was not normal.

“It’s just a few giant steel-spear spiders. What’s the big deal? I’ll inform some of my subordinates later.”

Chen Yiming didn’t think much of it. He picked up his phone and informed the elites of the hunting team and disciples of the Mantis Snake Sword School.

He estimated that the loot obtained this time would be enough to last the Chen corporation for a long time.

After Chen Yiming hung up, He Gang panicked. “We’re not joking. It’s not just a few of them. There are at least 1000 giant steel-spear spiders.”

At this moment, he wished he could just ask this young man to get lost.

There were hundreds of thousands of people living in Lintong City. If anything happened, no one would be able to bear the responsibility.

Xie Weilin immediately tried to persuade him, “We can’t be careless. With so many giant steel-spear spiders, we have to have someone at the level of the city guardian to hold the line. Otherwise, it will cause a huge disaster.”

“We’ll set off now.”

Chen Yiming couldn’t be bothered to explain. After all, words were never as convincing as actions.

A black fog enveloped the three of them and turned into a black cloud that flew off.

“What’s going on?”

He Gang and Xie Weilin’s vision darkened and they suddenly lost their vision.
