Chapter 209 - Name Token (Second Update, Request for Monthly Votes)
Chapter 209 of "Damn it! Let's smash the darkness together!" starts here: Chapter 209: Chapter 24: Name Token (Second Update, Request for Monthly Votes)"Just as soon as... Discover what happens next!
Chapter 209: Chapter 24: Name Token (Second Update, Request for Monthly Votes)"Just as soon as Xu Shu popped up, they could easily tear through this humanâs throat and definitely relish a hearty meal!"
Just then, a punch that Xu Shu had been charging for a while hadnât even crossed the wall yet, but he launched it prematurely.
"Boom!"
Concrete and bricks flew everywhere as his fist shattered the wall, and without stopping, he sent two monsters, each weighing over a hundred kilograms, flying through the air.
This was the special effect of the Kua Fu ultimate technique, a charging attack that accumulated momentum and transformed it into a forced lift attack.
â"Mountain Capturing!"
The yellow monster and the white monster let out terrified screams: "Ao woo?"
Xu Shu had sprinted a distance of about a li. The punch he had been energizing for a long time sent the two monsters flying nearly twenty meters up into the air!
It was the first time in their monstrous lives that they experienced the sensation of flight, but there was no joy in it.
They twisted their bodies, their insides horribly mangled by the punch.
If they hadnât stepped forward a moment earlier, they might have been killed outright by a headshot.
And that wasnât all. Xu Shuâs feet planted firmly on the ground, his body twisted like a figure skater, and he fired two steel rebar guns from below, accurately piercing the monstersâ foreheads.
Bang. Bang. The sound of heavy bodies hitting the groundâthey were done for.
Xu Shu then took a deep breath, wiped the nonexistent sweat from his forehead, and dug out their Erosion Crystals.
One had four filaments, the other five, surprisingly both a little greenish, showing some mutation.
After weighing them, Xu Shu didnât pocket them but generously tossed them to Hong Yan who had quickly followed, casually saying, "Count them as communal spoils; weâll share them when we regroup tonight."
"You... huh?"
As she caught the still-warm, slightly blood-scented crystals, Hong Yan was visibly puzzled, her train of thought disrupted, forgetting what she had just wanted to ask as she blurted out, "You fought them alone, why share?"
"We canât say that; everyone deserves credit," Xu Shu replied.
"Youâre quite righteous..."
Hong Yan paused briefly but didnât dwell on it; they were just two white crystals after all.
Indeed, Xu Shu had a point; everyone deserved some credit.
Yeah, they all had stopped their vehicles to watch him fight the monsters.
Wait, I was about to ask something but got sidetracked... suddenly she remembered what she wanted to ask, "How did you know there were two monsters here?"
"Canât I? Only you rascals can survey the location of monsters? I obviously have my special Curse Tool, maybe even better than yours."
Xu Shu lied without flinching, shamelessly praising himself.
However, it was true, compared to his journeyâs âHeavenly Eye Checkâ, the rascalâs basic skill "Bloodthirst" was indeed inferior.
Itâs just that the Heavenly Eye Check could only be used three times a day, has significant restrictions, and timing was crucial.
Like now, timing the location of the two monsters had caused a slight delay in proceeding into the wilderness by a few minutes, which naturally could also lead to slight changes to the future he had foreseen.
"The future is not set in stone, and the future you see may not come to pass"âthis was something Xu Shu always kept in mind.
It was only because he had simulated it previously, spent a day without issues, and safely returned to the border that Xu Shu would not have left home so carelessly this time.
Upon leaving, he also kept two more uses of the Tai Chu Scroll as his lifesaving trump cards.
Caution was his only rule after leaving the safe zone.
"...next time, warn me earlier," Hong Yan said, frowning as she sized up Xu Shu for a long while, then dropped the subject, suddenly making this remark.
"What warn you earlier?" asked Xu Shu.
"No worries, letâs head back."
At dawn, the heroes flew... so thatâs what it meant, this guy indeed moved as fast as flying. The Qingyun List introduction from that day meant this... What does the second half about the Primordial Spiritâs youthful sorrow mean...
Hong Yan bit her lip thoughtfully and turned to walk away.
Xu Shu followed behind, opening the promotion network excitedly to check.
"Ha ha, just like I thought, killing monsters contributes immediately, no problems!"
"Lie Zhenzi isnât lying to me on this."
Xu Shu chuckled inwardly, thinking that in a day or two, his contribution points would definitely reach 20, and then he could accomplish something big.
The two returned to their caravan, where the other team members gave them curious looks.
However, Hong Yan casually explained, "We just happened to encounter two monstrous beasts and took care of them together. Letâs continue on our way."
This spared Xu Shu the hassle of further explanations.
As for the two Erosion Crystals, they were handed over to the teamâs nurse, Lan Xin, who obediently stored them in her personal backpack.
Generally, the nurse of the Pioneering Team also undertakes the duty of âtemporarily collecting spoils of battle.â
This seemed to be a tacit agreement, indeed, as, unless it was a battle of life and death, the nurse was always the best-protected member, hence relatively more available.
Assigning this task carried a bit of an intention to âcare for the nursesâ feelings and not make them feel like a burden.â
This interlude did not waste much time, and the caravan continued its journey normally.
Xu Shu glanced at the twenty-something, yellow-haired sister beside him and asked curiously, "Why didnât you tell the truth just now?"
Hong Yanâs facial expression tightened, "Why say so much and have to explain? Isnât it troublesome?"
After saying that, she closed her eyes to rest.
"Tsck." Xu Shu clicked his tongue, thinking that this beautiful ladyâs temper was as explosive as her figure, truly fitting of a rascal.
The rest of the journey went smoothly.
Several hours later, they reached the border line.
Here, amidst the crisscrossed ruins of the previous civilization, stood a nearly twenty-meter-high supply point for the Patrol Team, marked by a flag with the numbers (19,1), nicknamed "the little lighthouse."
The Patrol Team responsible for the escort arrived here, set up camp, and no longer pushed forward, beginning to move supplies inside.
They would stay here to provide support.
Meanwhile, Xu Shu and his group were all set to depart.
Bi Chaoyang, facing the direction of the Star Tower, took out a simple incense burner, lit it, and paid his respects.
Then he activated the Promotion Drive and tapped on a camera-like icon, revealing a scroll:
"Since the Great Catastrophe, humanity has been besieged by external demons, facing constant threats from various malevolent spirits who wish for our Human Clanâs destruction!
"Today, we are fortunate to meet and become companions, venturing out of the city to fight for our clan, we must support each other through life and death, and rescue each other in times of fortune and disaster!
"Should anyone flee in battle, betray our trust, become greedy for life and fearful of death, or fail to aid those dying, let Lie Zhenzi bear witness, and let them be wanted worldwide, to be executed by all!"
Following this, Bi Chaoyang electronically signed his name using the Promotion Drive and then turned to the other teammates, smiling:
"Sorry, brothers, I was too busy looking at Gu Lishiâs achievements when we set out, ha ha, forgot to switch!
"Please sign the name token, as from here on, we must unite and cooperate."
