Chapter 15: Tough teammates
Seven Kills took Xia Ruyi to a tavern in the town, which was the agreed concentration place for their team.
From the mouth of Seven Kills, it was learned that the team now has a total of five people. One is responsible for detecting assassinations, one is responsible for healing defenses, one is responsible for formation arrangement, and the remaining two are responsible for combat. Xia Ruyi is the one in charge of the battle, the whole squad has a clear division of labor, although everyone has their own responsibilities, but the individual combat ability is also very strong.
Xia Ruyi's strength ranked second to last in the squad, except for that formation mage, he was the weakest. It was also the first time he had heard the word formation.
"Master Lin, what is a formation?"
"The formation is a special form of combat assistance, which requires mastery of the Five Elements Feng Shui method. Some formations can fight the enemy, and some formations can help you cultivate, it seems that this squad you joined is Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. Master Lin explained.
"Seven kills, this is the new recruit of your team, right? It looks good, is it another freak. Hahaha..."Someone in the tavern said hello.
Seven Kills didn't answer him, just smiled mysteriously, and he asked the tavern owner for two large glasses of spirits, one for Xia Ruyi, and motioned for him to have one.
Xia Ruyi took the wine glass, learned the seven killings and poured a big sip directly, and then coughed violently, and his little face turned red.
The tavern burst into laughter, "Brother Seven Kills, this young man you are looking for this time is very interesting, haven't you been to the tavern before?" I don't think I'm still an adult. Everyone joked.
Xia Ruyi smiled awkwardly, and Seven Kills shook his head helplessly.
"Where did the little doll come from, the hair has not yet grown to come to this Qingxi Town, aren't you afraid of being bitten off by a strange beast?" A rough-looking man carrying a giant axe behind his back.
Xia Ruyi frowned, he didn't look at him squarely, he hated this kind of self-righteous guy, so he chose to ignore it.
And this person saw that Xia Ruyi ignored him, and he looked indifferent, and immediately relented, "You stinky boy, didn't you hear grandpa talking to you?"
Xia Ruyi still ignored it, and the tavern was full of people who didn't think much of it was going to be lively, "Pega, you're getting worse and worse now, a little doll is not afraid of you." Someone coaxed, and there were more and more people who coaxed, and Pei Jia trembled with anger and felt that his face could not be hung up.
"Today I will give you some color to see, so that you know to respect the old and love the young. After speaking, he took off the big axe behind his back and slashed at Xia Ruyi.
Xia Ruyi didn't dodge or dodge, seeing that the axe was about to fall, he picked up the iron rod that was placed aside, only to hear a clear sound of metal rubbing, Pega took a few steps back with the axe, Pega, who was famous for his natural strength, actually didn't get any benefits, and his strength was not as good as the seemingly thin young man in front of him.
Pega was stunned, he was not stupid, he put away his axe stupidly, and walked out of the tavern.
At this time, no one in the tavern underestimated the young man anymore, and they all drank to themselves.
Xia Ruyi just shook his head, and his arm was still numb, although his strength had improved, it was still far from enough.
"Uncle Seven Kills, you came so early, have you found an accomplice?" a crisp voice remembered.
Xia Ruyi turned around and saw a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl, dressed in purple, wearing a tall ponytail, a head shorter than him, with snow-white skin, and a pair of big smart eyes staring at him up and down.
"Uncle, this is the newcomer you are looking for, it looks good, the supreme is not ugly, and he doesn't look annoying. The girl grinned.
"My name is Xia Ruyi, and I just joined the Seven Kills Team today. Xia Ruyi has a good impression of this eccentric girl, and beautiful people can always give a good impression.
"Ah, my name is Ruolan, and I've only been part of the team for more than a month. The girl tilted her head and said.
It didn't take long for the remaining two to arrive together and introduce each other to Xia Ruyi. One is called Wang Ying, and the other is Xiao Ziran.
"Now that everyone is together, I'm going to divide up the work and let everyone know their role. Wang Ying, 7th stage of the Broken Spirit Realm, is good at concealing sneak attacks and is responsible for investigation. Xiao Ziran, the 2nd stage of the Broken Spirit Realm, is good at formation layout and is responsible for assisting the attack. Seven kills, the 2nd stage of the Qingling Realm, is responsible for healing and control. Ruolan, the 8th stage of the Broken Spirit Realm, is responsible for attacking. Xia Ruyi, the 3rd stage of the Breaking Spirit Realm, is responsible for attacking. Seven Kills said methodically.
But at this time, Xia Ruyi's heart turned over the river, "This girl looks a few years younger than me, and she has actually broken through the 8th stage of the Spirit Realm, how did she cultivate? Did she start from her mother's womb? This talent is even higher than Feng Ziyi! There are also these seven killings, and he actually cultivates the healing exercises, etc., normally a kind of exercise has only one characteristic ability, could it be said that he knows two exercises, and one is control?" Although his heart was full of questions, he didn't show it, and he didn't take the liberty to ask, thinking that he would be familiar with it in the future.
"I don't care what your purpose is for joining the team, whether it's earning remuneration or training strength, the team has only one goal, to complete the task. Seven Kills put on the demeanor of a captain, "Since everyone has come to this team, they will all be people who can entrust each other behind their backs in the future. Everyone should know that this is the basic rule of the party. ”
The remaining four all nodded. Except for Qiqi and his thirties, Wang Ying and Xiao Ziran are both twenty-five or sixteen years old, Xia Ru is eighteen years old, and Ruolan is fourteen years old, everyone is very friendly, and the three older people take good care of the two younger ones.
"Brother Ruyi, what is this iron rod you are carrying, it looks so ugly, can you lend me a look?"
Of course, Xia Ruyi would not refuse, he threw the iron rod over with a smile, suddenly realized that something was wrong, and just wanted to remind him, Ruolan had already taken it, "Wow, this iron rod is a little heavy, hey, is it heavy iron in it, no wonder it is so heavy." ”
Xia Ruyi was surprised by too many things today, and he was not surprised now, when he thought of this little girl breaking the 8th stage of the Spirit Realm, it was not unusual to be able to lift this thousand-pound iron rod, "Yes, Sister Ruolan is well-informed." ”
Ruolan stuck out her tongue and said, "I didn't understand these things originally, but I only happened to know them once when I saw an elder in the family forging weapons with this material. Although this iron rod does not look good on the outside, it has a hard texture, and after you inject spiritual power, its weight will also increase, which is suitable for use with great strength. ”
"Will the weight change after injecting spiritual power?" Master Lin didn't mention this to me.
"yes, don't you know, you try. With that, he returned the iron rod to Xia Ruyi.
As soon as Xia Ruyi got the iron rod, he injected spiritual power, and the iron rod suddenly became heavier, "I didn't expect this function to exist, thanks to Sister Ruolan's reminder, otherwise I wouldn't know." I'll give it a name by your last name, and call it Ruojun!"
"It's hard to hear, why use my last name to name such an ugly thing. And my nickname is Xiaolan, such as a brother who will call me Xiaolan in the future, they all call me that. Ruolan showed two cute little tiger teeth.
"Let's rest well tonight, tomorrow we will set off for the first mission!" Seven Kills got up and wanted to leave.
Xia Ruyi hurriedly asked, "What is the first task, I can prepare." ”
"When you come to Qingxi Town, there is no other task except hunting strange beasts, such as a brother. Ruolan explained.
Xia Ruyi had a plan in his heart, and was ready to open a room to rest for a night, recuperate his spirits, and start his career of hunting alien beasts the next day.
Xia Ruyi, who was lying on the bed, rarely did not cultivate, closed his eyes, and soon fell asleep. Because I haven't rested for too long, this sleep is extremely sweet.
The next morning, the sun shone on the eyelids, and Xia Ruyi woke up leisurely. "Bad, sleeping too dead, late. ”
Xia Ruyi hurriedly ran to the door of the tavern with Ruojun on his shoulder, and the other four people had already arrived, "I'm sorry, I've slept." He scratched his head embarrassedly.
"It's okay, we've just arrived. Everyone is ready, and now I will talk about the task. This time, someone offered a bounty for the beast core of the third-order cloud panther. Seven Kills said, "The Cloud Shadow Leopard itself is a third-order demonic beast, with strong strength, and is also good at using the environment to conceal itself, which is very tricky. The task is to ask for its beast core, not every cloud leopard has a beast core in its body, it is a task that depends on luck. ”
The group left Qingxi Town and walked towards the periphery of the Thousand Star Mountain Range. The young man walked for a while, and began to feel heavy again, fine beads of sweat appeared on his face, and the burden of carrying this Rausch iron rod was too heavy.
"Brother Xia, I see that you have a little trouble carrying this Ruojun, why don't I help you take it for a while. Wang Ying took the initiative to say.
"Thank you Brother Wang for your kindness, this is part of my cultivation. I'm used to it, it's out of the way. Xia Ruyi replied politely.
Stepping into this Thousand Stars Mountain Range, Xia Ruyi felt the aura around him, and took a deep breath comfortably, this is a good place to cultivate, but there are strange beasts, and if you are not careful, you will die.
"We're on the periphery now, everyone cheers up, we may encounter strange beasts at any time, and we are ready to fight. "Seven killings reminded everyone.
"Wang Ying, you explore the way in front, the others walk closer, pay attention to the behind, the cloud leopard is deep in the periphery, and you have to walk for a while, during which you encounter strange beasts as much as possible to avoid, don't provoke unnecessary getting. ”
Wang Ying ran his own exercises, and his body gradually merged with his surroundings, taking a step ahead.
Xia Ruyi has grown so big, he has never seen a strange beast, and he still has some expectations in his heart. In addition to him, Ruolan also looked relaxed, without the slightest sense of tension.
"Xiao Lan, have you ever fought with a strange beast?" Xia Ruyi asked.
"I've encountered strange beasts on missions before, and it's not as terrible as I imagined, as long as your strength is higher than them, you don't have to be afraid of them, because the IQ of strange beasts is generally not high, and you won't be fine if you deal with it carefully." Ruolan looked around with a pair of big eyes, a little careless.
