Gu sent a ssage, "Perfect, I am eager to see it too. But her leaving the protection of the crowd on her own as the ’King’ could be dangerous, right? Haha, if she gets besieged, this match will be over."
Gu Ningzhi didn’t pay attention to Su Jiang’s gaze and continued chatting happily, "If you don’t intervene, I think those attacking her might get wiped out. Of course, if you do step in, one side will certainly face defeat and leave..."
As he spoke, Gu Ningzhi noted that gaze intensified, making it impossible for him to deflect it with "illusion."
"You have a lot of confidence in her..." Brother Gu said succinctly. Though he was a hidden chatterbox, he could restrain himself during the match, "Let’s see the results of the competition."
After finishing their exchange, Gu Ningzhi couldn’t stand Su Jiang’s subtle gaze any longer, leading the team to set off. As Su Jiang passed by with a backpack, she uttered lightly into his ear, "If you can’t take down the swamp dungeon, you should commit seppuku in apology! Daring to flirt with the enemy team in front of ... haha..."
Gu Ningzhi was made to shiver all over by Su Jiang’s final "haha," a sinister and awful thought erging in his mind, perhaps... she intercepted the content of his and his brother’s secret coded ssages, knowing what they discussed?
After threatening Gu Ningzhi, Su Jiang did the final mobilization and then gave the order to set off; each team set off one after another. Only Gu Ningxuan remained standing, puzzled, she asked, "What’s the matter, is there sothing you still don’t understand?"
Gu Ningxuan looked deeply at Su Jiang, then said, "Seeing Miss Su’s deanor earlier, I suddenly felt that I might still be too weak. So things I thought I could handle, I really can’t. After the five-year contract, I’ll probably leave to find my own path... if I manage to co back alive soday, will Miss Su still take in?"
Su Jiang was puzzled as to why the other suddenly said such strange words. But... if Gu Ningxuan leaves to find his path and returns alive... it ans he has transford into a dragon of destiny, no longer an ordinary being trapped in the pond... so, he asks if she would still take him in? Su Jiang suddenly felt her dream of recruiting him as a subordinate was no longer just a dream...
She smiled and replied, "If that day cos, the temple might be too small to hold a great Buddha. But if you are willing, I am always in need of a chanic here. In any case, returning safely is the righteous path! And now there’s still a long ti until the contract expires, Mr. Gu really doesn’t need to worry about this matter now; you have plenty of ti to think it through slowly."
Gu Ningzhi nodded, after receiving a definite answer, he turned and led his team to the designated combat map.
Standing alone, Su Jiang was puzzled, feeling that Gu Ningxuan’s words were sowhat problematic, as if he was trying to convey sothing else?
Five years seem long when spoken, but actually pass by in a blink of an eye. Su Jiang scratched her head, thinking Gu Ningxuan’s decision to leave after five years might be the right move, as a sapling that doesn’t weather storms will never grow into a towering tree. As for why after five years... perhaps he was too honest and didn’t want to breach the contract?
After a while, Su Jiang got up and left the spot, utilizing her stealth and detection abilities to the maximum. Given the treacherous nature of the cha Fighting Arena’s mêlée match, she couldn’t let others easily discover her whereabouts, or she’d really get besieged.
"Hoo—feels best to ambush!" Su Jiang took off her jacket and tied it around her waist, wearing only a small tank top above, and shorts with high boots below. Her thighs were strapped with four or five ammo boxes and a spare dical kit.
"Battles like this... always bring back so bad mories..." Su Jiang muttered, raising her hand to reposition the custom scanning goggles from her forehead to her eyes, which provided very clear vision. By sliding the control button on the fra, she could freely adjust the visual range, much like a multifunctional binocular, though a far more advanced one.
In her second life, most of Su Jiang’s friends died gloriously on the battlefield, and coupled with her more individualistic nature, although she could partake in skirmishes, she subconsciously chose to avoid them. Acting with others always felt pressuring inside her heart.
It wasn’t about fearing her performance might be inferior, but rather the dread of experiencing the pain of losing companions again.
"According to the map analysis, if we initially refreshed here... then..." Su Jiang analyzed the patterns of the cha Fighting Arena mêlée, focusing her sight on a specific canyon, "Here should be the base, according to both sides’ refresh rules and fairness balance, Cui Hu’s team should appear here, with a terrain that’s easy to defend and hard to attack, making it an ideal base location."
Once confird, Su Jiang imdiately got up, but instead of summoning the Military God, she chose to use the King of Assassination—Ghost Shadow! This was a cha she exchanged from the Arms Dealer at the start, but hadn’t encountered the right mont to use until now.
This Ghost Shadow excels in assassination and rapid movent, its firepower intensity barely within the Restricted cha Order.
Of course, this was the result of Su Jiang’s modifications; the real Ghost Shadow wasn’t this fragile. To prevent anyone from recognizing Ghost Shadow, she specially altered its appearance, now looking very ordinary.
Sitting in the cockpit of Ghost Shadow, Su Jiang looked at the lights turning on one by one, with a calm smile across her lips, yet Gu Ningyi’s face pierced through her mind incessantly... don’t misunderstand, she had no romantic thoughts; she just wanted to completely defeat this man!
This thought was very strong and clear! But before that, she must assassinate the nine deputy leaders of the opposing side first! (to be continued.
