Chapter 406:-for-tat
"Afternoon?" Lily thought for a moment, then said with a slight disappointment, "The doctor said that there should be an assessment." β
"What is the assessment?"
"Battle-tested. β
"That's right...... That's it. β
Lily's actual combat test of these dragonborn test subjects is the equivalent of a student's exam, and it is a means used by the research institute to test the detailed growth of the test subjects.
Those with excellent performance will naturally get more resources to cultivate, while those with poor performance, just like Jiang Yan at the beginning, will be excluded from the training list.
This kind of assessment is not like the examination of ordinary college students, and it is impossible to ask for leave and shirk.
"Speaking of which, if you want to be assessed, all of you have to be, right?" Jiang Yan suddenly remembered something.
"Hmm. Lily nodded.
When Jiang Yan heard this, the glint in his eyes flashed.
Well, so you can be sure that a guy is going to be there, so ......
Just when Jiang Yan was thinking about someone in his heart, coincidentally, someone he was thinking about also happened.
A somewhat indifferent young man's voice came from afar: "Lily Luca, didn't you finish the inspection a long time ago and left first, why are you still here?"
Hearing this, Jiang Yan and Lily turned their heads together to follow the prestige, and saw a young man about twelve or thirteen years old not far away, with blond hair and blue eyes like a peerless noble son in a Western European fantasy, but a handsome face that was almost perfect but with a few extra dark red scars with fierce meanings was slightly flawed, walking towards their table.
"Hal?" Lily recognized the person, her face did not change much, but the temperature in her eyes dropped a lot, and she no longer had the silent but gentle and demure atmosphere when she got along with Jiang Yan before.
"Everyone else has already gone to the training ground to stand by, but we haven't seen your figure yet, we were wondering if you came here to eat again, and we really guessed it......" Without noticing the changes in the girl's body at all, the blonde boy walked over to himself, glanced at the food on the table, and then said in a commanding arrogant tone: "Okay, you should have eaten enough to see how you look, then hurry up and come and gather!" You are my assessment opponent, don't trouble me!"
"Well, you can find someone else. Lily replied coldly.
"Looking for someone else?hmph, in the same life, who else is qualified to be my assessment opponent besides you?" The young man said dissatisfiedly: "Doctor, they also think so, otherwise how could the previous internal ranking test be assigned to us until the last minute every time?" As the only person who has the same wurm spirit as me, you are an opponent that I can barely recognize, if you don't show up, the assessment on my side will not be able to go smoothly!So, hurry up and follow me!"
Lily didn't care about the young man's anxious urging, but turned around unhurriedly and turned her head to look at Jiang Yan.
"Yan, I'm back. So, together?"
"Lily, unlike you, I don't need to take this kind of assessment anymore. Although the words were a little too brief and made people feel a little unclear, Jiang Yan knew that this was Lily's style, and after thinking for less than half a second, he understood what the other party was asking.
"However, if I am a bystander, there is no problem, and it happens that I am idle now. β
"Well, together. Lily nodded, suddenly stretched out her white jade hand and grabbed Jiang Yan's wrist, and then pulled him to stand up together, intending to bypass the blonde boy and walk out.
β...... Stop me!!"
However, the blonde boy suddenly shouted angrily and dodged in the direction of the two.
"Hal, get out of the way. Lily's eyes turned cold, and she stared at the blonde boy dissatisfied.
But in response to her, it was the other party's suppressed angry voice: "Lililuka, it's you who should get out of the way!"
Then, the eyes of the young man who was Lily became 'Hal' crossed her and fell on Jiang Yan, who was behind Lily's side, with a look of resentment in his eyes: "I felt a little strange from just now! Who is it that can actually make Lily Luka take the initiative to get close, I didn't expect it to be you-two, one, three, !!"
Hal hadn't recognized the person sitting there when he had been blocked by Lily before, but now he finally recognized the scar that had left a painful scar on his face two years ago.
"Yo, No. 81, I haven't seen you for two years, have you only recognized me until now? Could it be that there is something wrong with your eyesight?" Jiang Yan looked at this young man who was a little familiar and a little unfamiliar, although his appearance had changed a little, he could still see that it matched the image in the memory left by the remnant spirit's personality.
He smiled and said, "Besides, No. 81, don't call me by that number anymore, my name is Jiang Yan now, or if you don't like this style, you can also call me Yan?" β
"Bastard!" Looking at the smiling appearance of the black-haired boy, Hal seemed to faintly feel some kind of hot pain on his face, which made his already surging resentment even higher, and said in a very unkind tone: "This sentence is given to you! You remember for me, now I already have the name 'Howl'!2...... Jiang Yan: Why are you here now, when you were obviously abandoned?"
"Isn't it strange that I'm here?" Jiang Yan said with a light smile, touching his chin and looking at Hal: "It's you, even if two years have passed, it doesn't seem that you have made much progress...... Uh, no, the scars on your face have a kind of proof of manly growth, which is a good match, which good person carved it for you? I'm curious, don't you mind telling me about it?"
Although he said this, Jiang Yan's eyes were a little playful, and a look of understanding flashed, obviously he already had some guesses in his heart.
"...... scars? huh...... Hehehe......!" Hal raised his hand and touched his face, feeling the rough tactile feedback from his fingertips, and his face was a little distorted: "You guy, actually, dare to mention this?!"
Because of the boiling anger and the faintly rising violent momentum on his body, a trace of fierce spiritual power emerged, as if a vicious beast had been enraged.
"Yan, don't you remember?" At this time, Lily ignored Howl's emotional outburst in front of her, and turned her head to look at Jiang Yan strangely, "That, you did it two years ago." β
"Oh, did I do it two years ago?" Jiang Yan looked abrupt at this time, and nodded as he spoke: "I see, such traces of manly personality are my masterpieces? So should I be paid like him? Lily, do you see that he looks more manly now than before?"
"You ......!" Looking at the guy who was obviously the culprit but still judging himself, Hal's anger increased a little, and even the green tendons on his forehead burst out.
However, I don't know if Lily really didn't understand Jiang Yan's obvious joke, she actually followed Jiang Yan's words and carefully glanced at the striking dark red scars on Howl's face, and then nodded; "It seems to be so." β
Then, Lily said to Hal with a serious face, "Howl, this is the ...... It's more masculine. β
After thinking about it, she added, "It's just...... It looks a little fierce again. β
β...... You two guys!!" Even though he had known that Lily's personality was like this, Hal was still furious, and the scars on his face trembled with anger.
He took a deep breath, suddenly suppressed his anger, and regained an indifferent expression, but his eyes were full of cold.
"Lilyluka, I have an account to settle with that guy, it's none of your business, get out of the way!"
Two years ago, when Hal had not yet received his current name and was still carrying the test subject number '81', the Dragonborn test subjects at that time had an internal combat competition arranged by the Institute after the initial elf summoning ceremony, with the aim of testing the combat effectiveness of their initial elves.
At that time, it was No. 81 and Jiang Yan who were assigned to the same group.
As a result, No. 81, who was using the 'Earth Dragon' with the strength of the contract elf as a soldier, defeated the slime 'Xiaobai' who had just been summoned with only the strength of the miscellaneous fish, and Jiang Yan, who had not yet gained any growth, and directly injured Jiang Yan at that time.
But at that time, although No. 81 was a victory, it was not without a price. At that time, Jiang Yan used a desperate tactic, using Xiao Bai's mimic stealth advantage to bypass the defense of the earth dragon and directly capture No. 81, who was the owner of the contract, and gave No. 81 a serious blow to the head with the highly destructive corrosive secretion that Xiao Bai was born with!
As a result, Number 81 was almost disfigured. And if it weren't for the timely treatment, he would have been more than just disfigured at that time, and his life would have been in danger!
Although the head that was severely injured by the corrosive liquid was later treated with the technology of the institute, it still left several indelible scars on the skin, especially on the face, which directly destroyed the original very handsome appearance of No. 81 based on genes.
It's not even just a scar, Xiaobai's corrosive liquid has a spiritual power that can corrode off to a certain extent, which makes the effect of the healing system's elven magic very unsatisfactory, and it can't achieve a quick healing effect, so that No. 81 at that time endured the pain caused by the ulceration of flesh for a long time.
Looking at the smiling culprit in front of him, who seemed to be intact and completely unharmed, he didn't see the appearance of being seriously injured by himself at that time, and then thinking back to the pain he suffered at that time and the scars on his face that remained, now Hal can't wait for Jiang Yan to double down on what he felt like at that time, so that he can vent the resentment in his heart.
"Settle the account, that's right, I also have an account with you to settle it well!" Jiang Yan sneered in his heart when he heard this.
Not to mention that Jiang Yan didn't know what Hal had experienced at that time, even if he knew, he wouldn't have any sympathy--numbness! This thing was just a little painful in his face for a while, but what about himself at that time? The bones of his whole body were almost broken once, if it weren't for the treatment of the institute, he would probably have been seriously injured and died at that time, where could he still be able to revive the true spirit?
Although the experience at that time was borne by the remnant personality, Jiang Yan, who fused that remnant personality, was not much different from his own experience.
Unless the conditions are insufficient, revenge will be avenged! Jiang Yan has always been very resentful in this regard.
As for how to retaliate? Of course, it is the easiest and most relieving to fight back. Anyway, this kind of thing, even if his current strength is the level shown to Lux and the others on the surface, it is enough to deal with Hal's.
Seeing him like this, I can't wait to do it directly with me, but it won't save me more provocations. β
Thinking of this, Jiang Yan's eyes changed slightly, and a cold glow flashed, and he was about to take the initiative to 'make an appointment'.
Unexpectedly, Lily, who was in front of him, suddenly took a step sideways at this time, and stood in front of Jiang Yan to block Howl's sight.
"Hal, don't hurt your words!"
"Heh......" Hal was stunned for a moment, and then warned with suppressed anger in his tone: "Lily Luca, I don't want to say it a third time, you get out of the way!!"
"No!" Lily said in a calm and resolute tone, completely indifferent to his warning.
Looking at the girl who was resolutely blocking in front of him, Jiang Yan's face became a little subtle.
"That...... Lily, actually, I ......."
"Say, don't worry. But Lily interrupted him, and said in a very serious tone, "I am strong. So...... I'll protect it this time!"
"Uh......"
It was the first time for Jiang Yan, who was so seriously said to be protected by a girl in person, and the feeling at this moment couldn't help but be a little complicated.
There was some amusement and some emotion in his heart. Whatever the reality, the girl's care, without any false interest, at least made him useful.
"Is that so?" After looking directly into the girl's eyes for a while, Hal who felt her firmness from it, was silent for a moment, and then smiled, smiling very coldly: "That's right, Lililuka, anyway, the assessment will be met later, so it's better to just make a break first!
As soon as the voice fell......
The roarββ!! a thunderous roar, accompanied by a red spiritual light, emerged from Howl's body, faintly forming the phantom of a giant beast wrapped in brass-colored heavy scale armor behind it.
Before it could condense into an entity, the pressure like a mountain had already rushed towards Lily and Jiang Yan.
Without showing weakness, Lily's eyes froze, and a white spirit light dust rose from her body.
Beep ββ!!
In the white aura, a huge phantom with a graceful body like a dragon and a bird also emerged, exuding a sharp aura behind Lily's back, and withstood the pressure from Howl's side without flinching.
