Nine Star Burden - Chapter 505
Chapter 505: Courtesy demands reciprocity
On the third floor of the ancient tower.
The three-man team ran at high speed, but their expressions were solemn.
Unlike the previous two floors, which had been smooth sailing, everyone had been searching for 15 minutes on this floor, but they still could not find the entrance to the upper floor.
As a result, the trio also began to encounter the ghostly monk.
Under the circumstances of not fighting, the ghostly monks didn’t pose much of a threat to the trio. Master Zhao was leading the way in front, and Jiang Xiao was blasting them from the back. Jiang Xiao lay down and hugged their thighs tightly.
But obviously, the little toxic healer didn’t want to be a fool who won without doing anything.
As more and more ghost-faced monks appeared, Jiang Xiao said,””I think we’re going in the wrong direction,”
In front of them, Zhao Wenlong, who was kicking and beating up a partner, seemed to have already had an idea in mind, but he just didn’t say it out loud. Taking advantage of Jiang Xiao’s topic, Zhao Wenlong said,””We took some time on the first floor. Assuming that someone was faster than us, the actual situation is probably the same. Then on the right path, we should not have encountered so many ghost-faced monks.”
Zhao Wenlong’s train of thought was very clear. When hou Mingming heard this, he could not help but nod his head. He made a prompt decision and said,”Go back to the previous intersection and take a look on the left.”
While speaking, Jiang Xiao raised his hand and gave his partner a blessing, after which she was kicked away by Zhao Wenlong.
…
Everyone was very clear about their target and did not engage in battle. No one coveted the star beads either and they quickly turned around and returned to the previous intersection.
After that, Ming Ming fired the fire arrow and lit up the dark corridor.
She frowned.”I saw my Silver partner’s straw Cape. It shouldn’t be this road either. Continue walking back and look at the previous intersection.”
With such a close-combat fighter, especially with the other team members opening the way, it was really easy to determine which path to take.
Just as everyone was returning to the previous intersection, houming suddenly said,””Someone’s coming, very soon!”
The three of them stood in a diagonal line with Jiang Xiao in the middle, Zhao Wenlong in front on the right, and Zhao Wenlong in the back on the left. The three of them directly blocked the middle of the corridor.
A few seconds later, the sound of rapid running could be heard, accompanied by the angry voice of a woman.””Ember! Return my brother to me!”
“Hahahaha!” A man’s hearty laughter answered her.”Xiaojing, I have a book and a bed in my interspace. Your brother is eating and sleeping well in there. Don’t miss him.”
“Ember! You tricked us! What kind of man are you!” Wu Xiaojing said angrily and waved her hand. The corridor was suddenly filled with ice and the temperature dropped.
In Jiang Xiao’s line of sight, he also saw the young man with short hair running in front, only to see that sharp ice spikes had suddenly emerged from the stone ground!
The icicles that formed from the stone slabs were extremely fast and sharp.
Yu Jin’s body dodged nimbly, and every time the ice thorns were about to Pierce his body, he dodged them easily. He forcibly walked through the ice thorns and made a path with many turns. He even ran a few steps horizontally on the wall. It was simply a miracle.
Wu Xiaojing spread out her hands, and her cold fingers were covered in ice. Now, not only the ground, but even the walls on both sides were covered in ice spikes!
The entire corridor had turned into a long corridor of icicles.
Yu Jin leaped forward, got up, and ran for his life, but he suddenly saw the three-man team at the end of the corridor.
Yu Jin’s pupils shrank slightly. Those were three famous figures!
Zhao Wenlong, hou Mingming, and Jiang xiaopi!
More importantly, he was found by Bell in the space just now. There was no doubt that Jiang xiaopi was the only one with such a STAR technique among the nearly 100 contestants.
If the three of them knew that he was the one who had blocked their way and ambushed them …
Behind them, Wu Xiaojing’s beautiful eyes were filled with anger.”You old dog who blocks the way! Why would the space Star technique favor an assassin like you? It would be a waste to give it to you! What a waste of heavenly resources!”
At the end of the corridor, a black bow appeared in hou Ming’s hand. His eyes were sharp as he stared at Yu Jin, muttering,””So it’s you, kid.”
Yu Jin panicked. What he was afraid of happened!
This girl behind me, if you want to chase me, then go ahead. Why are you giving me an explanation?
Why was there a summary of the previous events?
In an instant, houming pulled the bow to a full moon, and three strings of black-feathered arrows flew out.
Although they were far away from Yu Jin, the three “patrol arrows” were aimed at Yu Jin’s head, heart, and right thigh.
There were angry ice mages chasing him from behind, and sharp arrows coming from the front.
Yu Jin dodged left and right, but the three arrows seemed to have an automatic positioning and tracking system. They were not affected by Yu Jin’s feints at all. Seeing the black-feathered arrows coming to his face, Yu Jin could not care less. He suddenly opened layers of overlapping space portals to block the attack of the arrows.
The young man, who had been waiting for a long time, was overjoyed. Yu Jin had let him out? Did my little sister succeed? He had captured old dog Yu?
Both of them were Star Warriors from two universities in the same city. The two of them represented their respective schools and had been fighting in big and small competitions for almost four years.
Not an enemy, not a friend, but an accurate term: Competitors.
The young man didn’t care much. This opportunity didn’t come by easily, so he hurriedly rushed out.
Hong long long …
The black-feathered arrow came straight at him, and the violent explosion was deafening and earth-shattering!
Jiang Xiao knew that the special arrow hidden in the middle of each string of black-feathered arrows should be the culprit that caused this scene!
The poor young man was blasted back by a series of black-feathered arrows after only half of his body came out of the spatial door.
In the middle of each string of black-feathered arrows, there was a special black arrow. Its tail feathers were not black, but white …
To everyone’s surprise, after the black-feathered arrow exploded, the black mist that it emitted seemed to be more than usual.
Wu Xiaojing also stood still in a hurry. Seeing the black mist coming, she immediately covered herself with an ice shield.
In just a few seconds, the corridor was completely covered in black mist.
The originally dark corridor could have been lit up by the firebolts behind them, but now, everyone’s eyes went black, and they couldn’t see anything.
Zhao Wenlong, who was in front, was extremely experienced. He quickly retreated and gave his back to Jiang Xiao. Jiang Xiao could also feel that his left shoulder was being pressed down, and a voice was heard from the black fog.”Surge.”
Zhao Wenlong clenched his fist and firmly took a horse stance. A golden light flashed on his fist, which was wrapped with a fist belt, dispersing the surrounding black fog.
“Ha!” Zhao Wenlong let out a soft cry and threw a punch. In the next moment, a ferocious Tiger formed from golden lines roared and flew out. It howled and forcefully dispersed the thick black fog in the corridor!
The fierce tiger and the fierce wind met in the middle of the corridor. The two sides were in a stalemate, and star power overflowed.
Obviously, Wu Xiaojing was also using her wind-series STAR technique to disperse the fog.
A few seconds later, the fierce tiger and the gusts of wind disappeared without a trace, and the corridor returned to its usual darkness.
“Brother?” Wu Xiaojing’s voice was heard again. She ran over and saw a young man with a broken body and blood flowing out.
His chest was in tatters, and apart from the large amount of blood flowing out, one could even see his white bones. One side of his shoulder was also shattered, and he lay silently on the ground in a terrible state.
Clearly, hou Mingming didn’t hold back. Her damage output was really explosive, especially when the opponent was coming head-on and was completely unprepared. She directly bombarded the opponent until he lost his ability to fight.
After the black mist dispersed, Yu Jin’s figure also disappeared without a trace.
At the same time, the judge’s voice came from the invisible headphones of the four people in the corridor.”Stop attacking contestant number 24! Stop attacking contestant 24!”
Obviously, the staff would come and carry the young man down the tower for treatment, but looking at his current state …
Wu Xiaojing kneeled on the ground, not knowing where to put her hands. The young man’s chest was broken, and she didn’t even give him a chance to press it.
“Jiang xiaopi! Jiang xiaopi, help me!” Wu Xiaojing suddenly thought of something and hurriedly looked up at the end of the corridor in the distance. It was the only medical aid among the hundreds of contestants.
“Mm …” Jiang Xiao pondered for a while and pressed the invisible headset.”Sir, can I treat him first? he seems to be seriously injured.”
A few seconds later, the judge’s voice came from the invisible headset.”Sure.”
Without saying a word, Jiang Xiao threw a bell at him.
“Thank you! Thank you!” Wu Xiaojing was overjoyed. The other party had really helped her!
It was a race against time, and their lives were at stake!
Jiang Xiao ran over while Bell shuttled back and forth between him and the young man. Jiang Xiao raised his hand and cast blessing.
“Thank you, thank you.” Wu Xiaojing mumbled unconsciously, watching her brother’s broken chest heal. She wanted to touch it, but she quickly pulled back, looking flustered and panicked.
They were All Star Warriors. To be able to reach the level of the national team’s selection tournament, most of them should have experienced life and death.
To be able to make a star Warrior lose his composure like this, he must be her brother …
The melodious sound of the bell did not stop. Rays of blessing fell and the young man’s body healed rapidly. After a while, there was no wound at all.
“Move, move!” Two staff members shouted and ran over in a hurry.
It was better to save one person! These were the future talents of the country!
“Ha!” The young man’s eyes suddenly widened, and he suddenly straightened his upper body, gasping for air.
The staff member was speechless.
Wu Xiaojing was overjoyed and hugged the young man.
However, the staff member did not let the siblings continue to enjoy the joy of “reunion” and directly dragged the young man away …
It was obvious that the young man had been disqualified.
Wu Xiaojing wiped her red eyes and looked at Jiang Xiao, who had already returned to the team. She yelled,””Jiang xiaopi! I owe you one!”
As she spoke, Wu Xiaojing looked at hou Mingming with an unfriendly expression. She seemed to be a person who clearly distinguished between kindness and hatred.
Jiang Xiao thought about it and felt that Yu Jin had tricked him. The Chinese paid attention to reciprocity. Should he send one back?
Immediately, Jiang Xiao said,”I don’t know if you can see it clearly from your angle. From my perspective, your brother was obviously bombarded by a few black-feathered arrows when he rushed out of the space. In that case, he must have been blasted back into the space.”
Wu Xiaojing nodded.
Jiang Xiao shrugged and asked,’so, why did he appear in front of us? Because when the black mist was spreading, someone had thrown him out of the space.
That Yu Jin guy is pretty good. At least he threw your brother out and tried to get the organizers to save him. If we don’t do anything about it, we might end up with a different ending. ”
Wu Xiaojing took two steps back and looked at the blood-stained ground with an extremely cold expression. She ignored the second half of Jiang Xiao’s sentence and said,””Ember is still hiding in the dimension.”
Jiang Xiao nodded.”If he wants to come out and open the door, the door will definitely open in the same place.”
“Wait for me in the semi-final!” Wu Xiaojing’s cold fingers were filled with frost. Countless icicles came from all directions, surrounding the place where the dimension portal had disappeared and even blocking the corridor …
He was simply an ice Archmage.
Wu Xiaojing’s beautiful face was frosty, and her voice was unusually cold. She squeezed out a sentence from between her teeth,””You guys leave!”
Seeing her in such a state, Jiang Xiao turned around and left!
Waa,
Women are so scary …
