Chapter 139 Peak Strength (4000)

"The ruins of Akaba?"

Card Xiu suddenly felt a chill in his heart. This kind of searching mission was much more difficult than the killing mission. After all, the killing mission will give you the specific location of the mission target. You just need to kill the target object in your own way. Finding similar ones depends on luck, and this type of task is extremely uncertain.

If you're lucky, you might find it in a day or two. It's bad luck, I can't find it even in ten years, let alone one year.

If Card Xiu had to choose, he would definitely prefer killing missions, but he had no chance to choose.

He can only accept the atonement mission of finding the ruins of Akaba.

He was ready to fail the mission and run away.

With his thoughts flowing, Ka Xiu continued to look down. There is not just one page of information about the Atonement Mission, there are several pages that follow. He glanced at it one by one, pausing for a moment when he saw the key information. Especially at this sensitive time...

Mission time: 180 days

Half a year is neither long nor short. But Card Xiu felt that Black Rain Villa had definitely set a very difficult task to train himself. It must be extremely difficult to find the Yaqaba ruins in half a year. After all, who asked him to kill the three punishers sent out by Black Rain Villa, the Decayed Knights.

This half-year period is definitely very short for the mission, but Ka Xiu can barely accept it. Because his Elephant Soul Secret Technique still has 15% of the training progress before the second chapter is complete, each time he uses the power of the Secret Soul to improve, he can increase it by about 5%, and he needs to rest for a month or two at a time.

In other words, he can at least upgrade himself to the third blood acceleration before completely betraying Black Rain Villa. It is not even impossible to improve the hard qigong and stone armor skills to the extreme. Of course, the premise is that Kaxiu, the betrayer of the mountain village, can take on additional tasks during the atonement mission.

If he can't take on additional tasks...

Naka Xiu could only start thinking about how to defraud a large amount of dark source material from other Eye weirdos. He had actually had this idea for a long time. He originally planned to defraud a large sum of dark source of energy to crazily upgrade himself before completely breaking with Black Rain Villa, so that he wouldn't have to pay it back after the break.

Cardiff didn't have any psychological burden on this. He came to this period of history with a very clear purpose: to close Black Rain Villa.

Hiding the insidious thoughts in his heart, Kaxiu continued to flip through the scriptures, and there was a map sandwiched between the pages at the back.

When I pulled it out, I saw it was an ancient piece of parchment.

The surface of the parchment is slightly yellowed, and you can see the traces of time. It feels very old and brittle. Card Xiu was afraid that he would tear the map apart if he exerted a little more strength, so he carefully spread it out. Inside was a medieval-style map.

The content is relatively abstract, and the names of various regions or rivers and mountains are all ancient names. The distances and proportions are completely unrealistic, and there is considerable damage to some areas of the map. Some important information was covered by a maroon stain that appeared to be blood.

Ka Xiu shook his head, unable to understand anything. It seems that if you want to know clearly the information contained in this picture, you need to find an ancient linguistics scholar, preferably one from a university with an archeology department. In this case, archaeologists can restore the map, and then have ancient linguists translate the information.

Fortunately, these things can all be solved with money.

It just takes some time.

But luckily, Ka Xiu wasn't too anxious. He planned to use a few months to improve his strength to the point where he could no longer make any progress. In this case, even if the mission failed, it would not be a loss.

Plan passes.

Immediately, Cardiff carefully took the map and left the baptismal church. Before he could have dinner, he came to the mission hall to test whether he could take on another mission.

The answer is: yes.

It seems that Black Rain Villa is quite grand...

But it's also possible that it has to play by the rules.

Starting from this day.

In Black Rain Villa, a cloaked figure appeared in a place where many Eye weirdos gathered, such as the Iron Blood Bar.

This is the most mixed-up place in Black Rain Villa, with all kinds of people and schools.

In the same way, the more people from different religions and disciplines, the better informed they will be. Ka Xiu has gotten to know some people in the past few days and got some information. Especially regarding the loan sharking of Dark Source...

Yes, there are loan sharks among the Eye Strangers.

After all, although Markers are not ordinary people, they also have the needs of ordinary people. There are always times when the Eye monsters encounter extremely difficult regular tasks. In this case, they can forcefully complete the tasks and narrowly escape death. It's better to borrow some dark source of energy to strengthen yourself in advance and get through the current difficulties first.

This is a commonality between ordinary people and imprinted people.

Similarly, Eye Stranger has formal lending services like a bank, as well as underground black lending services.

This kind of black service is no different from loan sharking.

All the shortcomings are known.

I also know the advantages.

The threshold is low and you can borrow at any time, even a large amount.

This is what Ka Xiu came for.

He planned to contact several black services companies until he was sure that he wanted to backstab Black Rain Villa completely. Directly borrow a large amount from each family and use it to improve themselves. It doesn't matter if you can't use it up, as long as it can be raised to the limit of physical control.

After the upgrade, he patted his butt and ran away instantly.

It would be fine if these families were sensible and didn't pursue them. If they were impulsive and wanted revenge, Kaxiu wouldn't mind erasing the debt himself.

As the saying goes.

Once I kill the creditor, I won't be in debt.

Another day, in the eastern area of ​​Black Rain Villa.

Iron-blooded bar.

Secluded corner location near the back door.

A tall man in a cloak was sitting at the table drinking. He looked very mysterious and quiet. The cold temperament is inexplicably incompatible with the lively and wild atmosphere around him.

Card Xiu glanced at the man next to him. The man was drinking boldly and ruthlessly, and the cold wine was stained on his unruly chest hair. He put down the cup with a bang and shouted that he was satisfied.

In the further corner, two imprinters, a man and a woman, were drinking, kissing, and touching each other in front of everyone.

There were people around drinking and playing small games.

This is what the Eye Strangers are like. The ancients always had to relax when faced with the pressure of death. Drinking, fighting, or women…

Ka Xiu took a sip of his drink and tapped his fingers on the table.

He is waiting for someone.

Suddenly, a thin, short, red-haired man walked in at the door. He is skinny and has a somewhat vulgar appearance. After glancing at the bar, the little man walked straight towards Card Xiu. Card Xiu also stood up and walked to the back door without saying a word. The two of them immediately arrived at the back of the bar.

This is a remote alley, relatively quiet.

"I have contacted you, the Black Wolf Guild, a branch within the Beast Flow, they also do this kind of business. There is also a branch within the Mercury Flow, Death Eyes, but their business is relatively small. If you want to borrow the Dark Source, Maybe I can only borrow a little bit..." The little man said to Cardiff in a low voice.

"As long as you can borrow it, I won't mind if it's smaller."

Ka Xiu said expressionlessly.

"Okay, this is the address they use for transactions, and it also has business hours." The little man immediately handed over two notes.

Ka Xiu reached out and took it, stuffing it into his arms. Then he took out a wad of federal banknotes from his pocket and handed it to the little man.

“A pleasure to work with.”

The little man smiled and stuffed the money into his pocket.

“A pleasure to work with.”

Card Xiu also specially shook hands with the little man. With the help of the other party, he got a total of five usury loan channels. Presumably, a large amount of source material will be taken away in the end.

There's no point in tricking people.

Kaxiu still prefers to cheat loan sharks.

But there's no rush now, he's not planning to run away yet. With the contact channel in hand, the quality of the borrowing is the same whenever.

the next day.

Ka Xiu took Yi Ri and left in the same way.

However, this time, unlike before, Black Rain Villa did not target Card Xiu again, perhaps because he accepted the atonement mission. In short, Ka Xiu did not encounter any danger until he left the rain world and returned to the real world smoothly.

But this time today, he not only brought back a six-month atonement mission, but also brought back a large number of additional missions.

As the strength of the card repairer increases, doing shield-level tasks is really as easy as eating and drinking, and it is no longer challenging.

Time flies, and four months fly by.

June 10, 107th year of the Hongli Federation calendar.

Black Rain Villa, Baptistery Church.

In a secluded and dark secret room.

A strong man with a bare upper body was slowly practicing his boxing skills, his raised thighs slowly stepping on the ground. "Bang!"

The floor shook, and a black shadow flashed across his arm. Then there was a scream that cut through the air, and the air flow surged wildly.

A powerful straight punch stopped in mid-air.

There was a sudden snap on the wall two or three meters away.

That was clearly the energy from the fist thrown just now.

Ka Xiu slowly retracted his fist, but his chest rose and fell rhythmically like a drum, which was the breathing method of Xiang Po Secret Technique. A faint white air lingered on the tip of his nose, and a low roar like an elephant suddenly came from his chest, and a feeling of heaviness arose spontaneously.

call……

Ka Xiu opened his eyes. His level of Wind Elephant Fist has improved to a higher level in four months of training, with some slight improvements.

"Wind Elephant Fist: Elephant Group 71.2% (three levels in total)" →

"Wind Elephant Fist: Elephant Group 74.8% (three levels in total)"

If the Elephant Herd chapter is divided into five steps, then Ka Xiu has the last step left and is a little closer to the fighter level.

In the darkness, he stretched out his big hand and patted the muscles on his shoulder, and immediately there was a hissing sound of two rough stones rubbing against each other.

Ka Xiu's tall body seemed to be covered with a layer of light white stone, giving him an inexplicable sense of solidity and strength.

This is still his normal state. If Ka Xiu uses all his strength to destroy the hard qigong, it will be as if he is really wearing armor.

Although his flexibility decreased, his defense power soared rapidly.

"Stone Armor Skill: Light Armor Dacheng (two layers in total)" →

"Stone Armor Skill: Heavy Armor Dacheng (two levels in total)"

In four months, the hard qigong was upgraded from a light armor Dacheng to a heavy armor introductory level, and finally to a heavy armor Dacheng.

This two-level skill is beyond promotion.

Ka Xiu has now reached the limit of his stone armor skill.

Level 2 skin hardening: Due to practicing hard qigong, the muscles on the surface of the body are tougher and the skin is harder. The defensive ability and anti-hit ability have been greatly improved, and it can withstand...

With this hard Qigong, if Kaxiu uses it with all his strength, not even the machine gun can break through his own defense!

In the secret room, the breathing gradually became calmer.

He finished his warm-up and adjusted himself to his best condition.

Sitting cross-legged, Ka Xiu glanced at the upper right corner.

"Elephant Soul Secret Technique: Insect Bite 61.7% (three levels in total)"

I felt the abundant secret power in my body again.

No longer hesitating, he calmed down. A large amount of secret soul power exploded instantly, covering every inch and corner of Ka Xiu's body.

Suddenly, the familiar process of reinforcement begins to repeat itself.

In a certain sense, practicing secret martial arts is a process of constant communication and tempering with the body. In this process of making the body stronger and stronger, it is like a general training a ragtag group of people into a powerful army with orders and prohibitions.

Forge weapons for the army and increase physical strength.

Equip your army with armor to strengthen your body's defense.

Train the discipline of the army and improve the control of force.

Card Xiu now feels like a general, trying his best to coordinate the overall situation and optimize the army structure. And the most important thing is to give every soldier enough food and drink to make him strong and strong.

In the secret room, a burly man was naked from the waist up. The strong red muscles all over his body surged and rolled like waves.

Sweat dripped down like a thread, falling to the ground with a pattering sound, and the surrounding area was already wet.

The man breathed through his nostrils, forming a small pale white cyclone, and a roaring sound came from his chest that was constantly rising and falling.

Card Xiu's eyes were closed tightly. In his perception, his body felt cold and hot at times. One second it was like taking a bath in ice water, and the next second it was like falling into a volcano. The two sensations of extreme cold and blazing heat crazily stimulate the senses, making it unbearable.

Among them, three points are the most difficult.

Navel, heart, between the eyebrows.

At this moment, there is a hot air flow rushing wildly between these three points, and each node is like a slingshot, constantly accelerating this air flow. Every time the airflow passes through a node, it will pass through the bones and internal organs at a faster speed.

It leaves a pain like a knife wherever it passes.

In addition to the air flow, the blood in Kaxiu's body is also accelerating between the two nodes. In the heart and navel, thick red blood rushes through the veins at extremely fast speeds. At this moment, he did not need to enter the blood acceleration state, the blood in his body had automatically accelerated to three times, and even gradually continued to climb.

There was tearing pain in Ka Xiu's body.

But he can feel it.

There is a complete and perfect change taking place.

Blood speeds up.

Airflow accelerates.

Round after round, the speed becomes faster and faster.

Until a certain moment!

The blood acceleration completely exceeded three times, reaching four times!

Buzz! ! !

There was a roar in the brain, like being hit hard by a hammer.

An invisible vortex unfolded from the center of the eyebrows. The hot air flow and the blood path overlapped, and the frequencies merged into one.

The huge force exploded and swept through the whole body like a ignited bomb!

Thanks to the book friend Ke Hua for the reward of 100 starting coins.

Returned from defense, brave and invincible.

Don't worry, brothers. I should have passed the defense, so I breathed a sigh of relief. Today, in order to cope with the defense, I slept for six hours and read the paper like crazy. I have never been so diligent since my freshman year, but... I still couldn't answer it. There's no quarreling with the crowd, it's basically just a crazy apology. But fortunately, I still answered half of the questions, and the paper was okay, so I should have barely passed it, which is bad. (●''●)
