"I’m... okay."
Bai Pu was a bit unaccustod to the female touch and gently pulled away.
The recent strike seed fierce, but Bai Pu leaned forward to absorb the attack in advance, preventing the Blood Ring Heavy Hamr Warriors from achieving maximum damage.
At the mont of impact on the waist, Bai Pu’s body coiled like a Spirit Snake, the entire structure of his waist bones, along with his chest, abdon, and legs, deford with a crackling sound, as if everything shifted out of place, looking quite terrifying.
In reality, this kind of deformation was a very effective cushion! It was like using the entire body to absorb the impact, resulting in the final damage being...
points.
At this point, Bai Pu still had more than 1/5 of his Life Value left. Not healthy, but not enough to knock him down.
It’s imaginable that without the defense against "Blunt Damage", the damage from this strike would have approached 40 points! Bai Pu only had 30 points of Life left then; he would have died on the spot.
The Female Knight nodded at Bai Pu, "Hello, Warrior, my na is Yvette. I offer you my highest respect."
Bai Pu received a series of Spirit Realm Will notification ssages.
[Combat ended.]
[You have unlocked the Combat Specialization: Basic Shooting Level 1.]
[Your Combat Specialization: Basic Fighting has increased to Level 2.]
[Royal Junior Knight: Yvette’s Favor Level towards you 300, current Favor Level: Acquaintance.]
[Royal Junior Knight: Yvette’s Favor Level towards you 1000, current Favor Level: Friend.]
Why two rounds of Favor Level increase? This is a pleasant surprise.
Bai Pu had reason to speculate that this female knight nad Yvette must be a key native character, making his adventure worthwhile.
What caught Bai Pu’s eye was a floating Blue Treasure Chest above the corpse of a Blood Ring Heavy Hamr Warrior!
Bai Pu hadn’t dealt much damage, but he had blocked the most powerful skill of the Blood Ring Heavy Hamr Warrior. His combat contribution wasn’t low, so he received a Treasure Chest. However, since the native Yvette made the biggest contribution, the quality of this chest probably wouldn’t be high.
In the perspective of the natives, Spoils Treasure Chests couldn’t be seen or touched; only the Awakened could see them.
Of course, natives could directly seize the deceased’s Equipnt without needing Spiritual Ability Resonance, sothing that Awakened couldn’t compete with.
While the Militia celebrated their victory and looted the spoils, Bai Pu discreetly grabbed the Treasure Chest and put it into his Storage Space. He then nodded at Yvette, "Hello, honorable Knight. My na is... Dior Fulri. You can call Dior."
Spirit Realm Will automatically adjusted Bai Pu’s appearance and attire, making him appear as a Northern European with high nose and deep-set eyes, golden hair, instead of a Black-haired, Black-eyed Huaxia Person in the eyes of natives.
The adapted appearance evolved based on the original Charm Value, so his attractiveness hadn’t decreased.
Of course, Bai Pu still had to co up with a new na on his own, as he couldn’t use his original na.
At this mont, the Female Knight finally removed her helt and faceplate, revealing her real face.
With sea-blue, slightly wavy long hair, and equally azure eyes, quite enchanting. However, the corners of her mouth turned slightly downward, giving her an aloof and stubborn look.
Yvette gazed at Bai Pu’s excessively handso face, just about to speak, when a pair of enthusiastic hands reached out and grabbed Bai Pu’s hand.
"Thank you for your help, Brother Dior! My na is Yingwa!"
Said the young Militia who had just consulted Bai Pu. He sincerely grasped Bai Pu’s hand and introduced himself enthusiastically.
Bai Pu mused briefly and said, "Nice to et you, Brother Yingwa."
Yingwa had a sowhat slender fra, with brown eyes and a few freckles on his nose. Smiling, he said gratefully, "Brother Dior, thanks to your help, we wouldn’t have made it otherwise."
Bai Pu shook his head, glancing at the Female Knight Yvette beside him, "Thanks to Lady Yvette’s assistance, she deserves the gratitude."
Yvette shook her head, "No, your bravery was crucial too."
Just then, a voice ca from nearby, "Who are you two? Why are you here?"
The Militia Captain, heavily injured, supported by two Militian, approached Bai Pu, Yvette, and Yingwa.
"Dior Fulri, from an upstream village. My ho was destroyed by the Blood Ring Fortress, and I seek revenge." Bai Pu explained briefly.
He didn’t dislike this Militia Captain much, as he had led the Militia bravely into battle. If there was a downside, it was his lack of brains.
"My na is Guna."
Militia Captain Guna nodded to Bai Pu, acknowledging his background.
[Main Quest I: Decision, Completed. You have gained an additional 11 hours, 34 minutes, and 33 seconds of free exploration ti. This ti will automatically take effect after all your stay duration ends.]
[You have joined Brandon Territory.]
[Your Reputation in Brandon Territory 500, current Reputation Level: Respect.]
"Extra ten plus hours of free ti?" Bai Pu shook his head slightly, feeling not much joy.
Maybe after officially becoming an Awakened, free exploration ti would be precious, but now he’s in the midst of the Awakened Trial, which in itself allowed a 10-day stay duration.
Captain Guna then turned to Female Knight Yvette, eyeing the Blood Ring emblem on her Chest Armor for a long mont.
"Yvette, a Knight from Chukrona Castle," Yvette said.
"Chukrona Castle?!" Guna reacted as if facing a formidable enemy, stepping back.
Other Militian were puzzled, "Captain, what’s wrong with Chukrona Castle?"
Guna roared, "Don’t co near! Chukrona Castle was its original na, and now it’s called Blood Ring Fortress!"
