The First Mist Chapter 31 Beheading
Su Shuang's face turned dark. If Cao Fei and the others arrived, there would still be a glimmer of hope that they could retreat together, but this newcomer... it would be good if he didn't get scared to death.
"Be careful, there is a ruin ahead of you!"
Su Shuang was surprised to see Xu Shen running towards her and about to collide with the child in the passage. When she shone her flashlight in the direction, she discovered that this newcomer had even forgotten to open his eyes.
This is too immature... She almost fainted.
“Uh.”
Xu Shen noticed the child in front of him, but was not sure whether it was a deep ruin. When he heard Su Shuang's reminder, he immediately understood that this was a D-level or E-level ruin.
He immediately became alert.
The child also noticed the new toy, and couldn't help but smile and crawled towards Xu Shen quickly.
"Stay, stay and play with me..." The child giggled.
"Um."
Xu Shen nodded, suddenly drew his sword, remembered his "mother's" teachings, and cut through the weakest point.
With a "puff", the child's reaction speed seemed to Xu Shen like that of a slow old man. He could accurately find the weak gap in the child's body and just thrust the sword in.
"Is that how you play it?"
The child's body was instantly cut apart, his chest torn apart, his innocent eyes open, unresponsive.
Su Shuang was stunned and immediately surprised. She had seen Xu Shen's strength before. Although he was a rookie, his strength was truly profound, enough to rival those of the old team members.
At this critical moment, Xu Shen exploded.
Good job...Su Shuang rushed towards Xu Shen, "Go!"
But just as she took a few steps, a figure suddenly passed her at a faster speed, screamed angrily, and rushed towards Xu Shen.
Su Shuang's pupils shrank. It was the middle-aged D-level monster.
She wanted to open her mouth and remind Xu Shen to run faster, but the middle-aged man was too fast.
In the passage, Xu Shen dealt with the child, but wiped the blade and put it back into the slot.
His eyes... are closed again?
Su Shuang was so frightened that her tongue went numb and she was speechless for a moment.
“Run!!”
Su Shuang burst out with strength from nowhere and screamed. The next moment, she saw a shocking scene that confused her mind.
whoosh!
Just as the middle-aged man approached, Xu Shen suddenly drew his sword and slashed.
The movements were simple, but after practicing them millions of times, they became as fast as lightning.
Extremely fast, it brings not only speed, but also power!
The sword blade fell in an instant, and the middle-aged man Xu pounced as if he had actively hit his body against the sword blade. The two collided at high speed, and the next moment, an extremely smooth tearing sound was heard.
The middle-aged Xu's body split into two halves, and blood splattered on Xu Shen's combat uniform, face and hair.
Delicious smell...Xu Shen licked the corner of his mouth subconsciously, but soon realized that such behavior was wrong for a normal person.
He swung his sword. The speed of the beast in front of him was obviously faster than that of the child. It should be D-level.
Xu Shen shook the sword blade, and only inserted it back into the card slot of his combat uniform after it was clean. If there were any blood and flesh residues, it would affect his sword drawing speed.
Although it is only an extremely slight impact, it cannot be ignored!
Xu Shen looked at Su Shuang and found that the other party had an expression as if he had seen a ghost, with his eyes wide open.
Xu Shen felt a chill in his heart and looked behind him to confirm that there was no one else except Maeve.
She shouldn’t be able to see Maeve… Xu Shen was puzzled and walked over: “Sister Su, are you okay?”
Su Shuang woke up from her dream and stared at Xu Shen in a daze. Is this... a newcomer?
Killed the newcomer in D-level Ruins with one sword?
If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she would have thought that others were playing a joke on her.
"It seems there is no ruins here." Xu Shen saw that she was not injured, and stretched his head to look around the cave, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Su Shuang was silent for a while, then slowly stood up and said, "Thank you. I will repay you for saving my life this time."
"Life-saving grace?"
Xu Shen was stunned. "Even if I hadn't come, Sister Su could have dealt with it. The two just now were only E-level and D-level."
The middle-aged Xu was similar to the little girl he had met during Zhao Yuan's assessment. Judging from her movement speed, she was at most D-level.
"It's just..." Su Shuang's mouth twitched slightly: "The E-level one is easy to deal with, but the D-level one is too dangerous. We originally had a chance if we worked together, but..."
But you killed him instantly with just one sword.
"Uh..." Xu Shen suddenly felt uneasy, thinking that he had missed something: "Sister Su, can't our second echelon deal with the D-level ruins beast?"
"It can be solved, but it is all under the leadership of Captain Zhou. Without Captain Zhou, it would be difficult and dangerous for us to solve the problem together." Su Shuang had a strange look in her eyes, and she felt that Xu Shen seemed to have misunderstood something.
When Xu Shen heard this, he immediately realized that he had made a big misunderstanding.
He thought that these two ruins would not be difficult for Su Shuang.
So my performance just now seemed a bit too much. I won't be promoted, right? Xu Shen felt a little worried, and his body began to shake.
Su Shuang saw Xu Shen about to fall, and hurriedly supported him: "What's wrong with you?"
"Nothing, I just felt a little weak and dizzy."
“…”
Su Shuang was a little suspicious, but had no evidence. However, Xu Shen was able to kill two Xu beasts in a row, which showed that the Xu power was extremely explosive and he would indeed be exhausted.
"You take a rest first. I will interrogate them and then meet up with Captain Zhou and the others." Su Shuang helped Xu Shen sit down aside.
Xu Shen nodded.
Su Shuang came to the cave and questioned the Jackal Gang members on the ground. After some questioning, she learned that the Jackal Gang had been raising livestock for more than two years.
In order to gain benefits from Xu, the Jackal Gang welcomed all who came to Xu and even collected Xu from everywhere.
This resulted in more and more Xu accumulated here, until a while ago, when a large Xu raised by the Jackal Gang was killed, causing the rest of the Xu to rebel one after another and turn this place into their nest.
Su Shuang felt that these people deserved to die. He asked about the map and the situation of the market, then ignored their calls for help and left them to fend for themselves.
Once the incident is resolved and you survive, you will be sentenced to life imprisonment.
"Let's go." Su Shuang took Xu Shen to look for Captain Zhou.
Xu Shen nodded, and the two of them returned through the cave.
Su Shuang led the way in front. With her by his side, Xu Shen felt much more at ease. At least from her reaction he could tell whether the ruins he encountered were deep or low-level, so that he would not accidentally come into contact with a deep ruin.
Just one time and his life would be gone.
They encountered another Xu along the way, but it was only E-level. This time Su Shuang didn't hold back and took the initiative to fight back. Xu Shen watched her circling around with Xu, constantly stabbing and attacking with swordsmanship like a juggler, and immediately realized that their fighting styles were very different.
It can be solved with just one sword...
Just need to focus.
Xu Shen said silently in his heart.
After continuous swings and slashes, Su Shuang finally dealt with the monster. She was sweating slightly all over, but she was in a good mood. She glanced at Xu Shen and felt that she had regained some of her status as a regular team member.
Being able to defeat an E-level Ruin Beast alone is the passing line for the second-tier team members.
Her ability to deal with E-level ruins with some strength left over is considered above average.
"The power of Xu cannot be unleashed all at once, otherwise the body will not be able to bear it and will collapse. Just like you, although you have killed two Xu, if a third one comes, you will have no fighting power, so you have to control it!" Su Shuang put away the sword and continued to move forward, while teaching Xu Shen.
"I see."
"After all, you just finished training camp and lack experience. Once you practice more, you will naturally be able to control it more precisely!"
Su Shuang said: "If I burst out in one breath, I also have the hope of injuring the D-level beast, but this kind of thing is a bit of a gamble. If I can only injure but not kill it, then the beast will kill me.
I recalled that although you just killed that D-level beast, you used some tricks. Don't think you have the ability to kill a D-level beast head-on. You should be careful next time!"
She gave the other party some advice because Xu Shen had saved her life.
Otherwise, she seldom talks so much.
"Thank you Sister Su for your advice. I was indeed lucky just now." Xu Shen nodded repeatedly.
Su Shuang raised her eyebrows slightly, feeling that Xu Shen's attitude was really humble. Although it was just luck, he did kill a D-level beast after all, and it was a single kill.
"Anyway, you do have great potential, better than us," Su Shuang said.
"No, no." Xu Shen said quickly.
Su Shuang didn't say anything more. The two of them returned carefully. Not long after, they met Cao Fei in the passage.
The three of them got together and became a little bolder, searching around the passage, encountering two scattered E-level ruins beasts along the way.
Soon, they found the signal left by Captain Zhou. They followed the signal and saw some corpses of Xu beasts and found the exit.
