144 Permanent Damage
“Affect his strength?” Andre shook his head. “He’s only bullying people of the same level now. If he encounters someone stronger or is surrounded by many people, he’ll die instantly. Who will give him time to stack his status? Does he really think that all his enemies are stupid?”
Fang Ping was speechless. Andre’s words were not wrong.
Previously at the sentry tower at the foot of the mountain, the Goblin Poison Archer had directly used Split on Qing Niao and immediately focused fire on him.
Fighting was a matter of life and death. Those who were stupid would have died long ago.
“I think the Ruby set is more suitable for him. The effect of every part is the same. It only increases attack power. It’s most suitable for Qing Niao.”
“The Ruby set doesn’t seem to be cheap. I’ve asked around in Fire Dragon City. I think it costs 38 Silver Dragons.”
“Ah? That’s too expensive. The Elf City only costs 30 silver dragons at most.”
“Alright, I’ll buy it for him when I get back.”
Andre stood up. “That’s all for now. I’ll rest for a while too.”
“Okay.”
He put the money away and took out the measuring rod from his backpack.
Two thousand energy points.
Eh, he had just used two Excellent skills and consumed 150 points. Why was there still so much?
Forget it, Fang Ping could not be bothered to think too much. He put the measuring rod away and went to sleep.
…
“Princess, when can we return to the Forest of Elves? Claude is dead, why aren’t we leaving?”
“How long have we been out?”
“Eldest Princess, in a few days, it will be a full two months.”
Sif placed the green chess piece on the board, looking thoughtful. “Two months. She should be almost there. It shouldn’t take us more than a few days to get back.”
“Can we finally go back? We can finally stay away from Humans!”
“Aya, it’s your turn.”
“Eldest Princess, your chess skills are so good. How can I win?”
Aya pouted and picked a black chess piece. “My Reborn Undead Stream is too restrained by the Elves’ Elimination Stream. I shouldn’t have used Undead. The Humans’ Elimination Stream might have had the upper hand.”
Sif smiled and placed another green chess piece. “Even if we choose to use the Humans, they won’t be a match for my Elven army.”
Aya lowered her head. Suddenly, she saw someone walking in and quickly looked up. “Sheng Feng, you’re back! How is it?”
Sheng Feng bowed to Sif with a solemn expression. “Eldest Princess, your guess is right. Second Princess Rachel has already taken action. The situation is very serious. We need to go back immediately!”
“Tell this news to the Humans. They don’t want to see Rachel ascend either.”
“Yes.”
“Fang Ping, can I borrow your measuring rod?”
“Sure, I’ll get it for you.”
Basically, he spent the day sleeping and exercising.
The next day, just as Fang Ping woke up, Qing Niao came over to borrow a measuring stick. Andre was also watching from the side.
As Qing Niao held it in the middle, a white light lit up. Fang Ping and Andre’s eyes widened.
“20 Strength, 40 Life, 900 Energy!”
Fang Ping looked at him in surprise. How many days had it been? This number was even higher than Andre’s.
Andre grabbed Qing Niao’s shoulder. “What have you been doing these past few days? It’s only been five days since the last measurement. Your attack power has increased by 15 points! Your energy has increased by 600 points. Have you done something you shouldn’t have done?”
Andre’s voice grew louder as he spoke. He grabbed Qing Niao’s collar and glared at him. “Did you use any illegal methods? Let me tell you, there are no shortcuts to cultivation. Don’t ruin your future path.”
“I, I…”
“Andre, Qing Niao must have only used the Flame Rock. Also, he’s been cultivating here for a long time.”
“If this Flame Rock was so easy to use, Fire Dragon City would have been filled with Professionals by now!” Andre flung Qing Niao away and sat heavily on Fang Ping’s bed. Fang Ping quickly supported him.
“Fang Ping, keep an eye on him for me. Don’t let him cultivate. I’ll go ask someone if the accumulation of large amounts of fire poison will cause any side effects.”
Andre glared at Qing Niao again and strode out, even pushing the door hard.
BANG!
Fang Ping picked up the measuring rod that had fallen onto the blanket. Fortunately, it was not broken. This was not cheap.
“Qing Niao, Andre is also concerned about you. He’s afraid that something will happen to you.”
Qing Niao lowered his head. “I know. I know you all care about me. I… want to become stronger. This is my opportunity. I don’t want to miss it. I don’t want to regret it in the future.”
Qing Niao looked weak and downcast.
However, Fang Ping knew that his heart was very strong. Just as Red Camellia Snake had said, he could not use more than two Flame Rocks. Otherwise, he might die from the tearing of his muscles.
However, ordinary people could not use it at all because the burning pain was getting stronger and stronger. They could not persist at all.
Fang Ping dared not imagine what kind of pain Qing Niao had been enduring.
Moreover, pain was the only feeling that was hard to adapt to. It was not a feeling that is easily adaptable to anyone after experiencing it.
Qing Niao whispered again, “I won’t die. In the past, I didn’t have anyone by my side, but now, I have you guys and Ai Bev. I won’t die.”
Fang Ping sighed. “There’s another person who’s always with you. It’s very difficult for him. It’s very bitter. He persevered through it. That’s the past you.”
“Yeah.”
Qing Niao was still sitting with his head lowered. Fang Ping lay on the bed.
Everyone had something to pursue, so it was not appropriate for him to evaluate it.
However, his speed of improvement was too unreasonable, right?
However, he seemed to be quite unreasonable.
Now that the sky was beginning to brighten and he had been woken up by them, Fang Ping planned to sleep a little longer.
…
In a daze, he heard footsteps. Andre had returned.
“Andre, how is it? Will it affect you?”
Andre sat on the chair and was silent for a while. “I went to talk to Miss Elsa, but she said no. As long as we can persevere and survive, the fire poison won’t cause permanent damage.”
“That’s great! Let’s go again today!”
“Be quiet!” Andre glared at Qing Niao.
Fang Ping was a little confused. “Really?”
“Yes, but this effect is more obvious at the lower levels. In Class 2 and 3, it’s basically useless.”
Andre paused for a moment and continued, “It’s just that most people can’t bear the pain brought by the fire poison. In the history of Fire Dragon City, there was a person who spent two days to increase his energy by 900 points and directly broke through to Class 2.”
Qing Niao whispered, “Two days? He’s much better than me.”
“That’s for sure. He’s the strongest knight, the founder of the Sunset Team, the Invincible Venerable Kaxiu.”
“Invincible Venerable Kaxiu. This title sounds very powerful.” Fang Ping did not know how they got their titles, but if they could be called Invincible Venerable, they must be very powerful.
Upon hearing this, Fang Ping suddenly thought of Chen Long.
He kept practicing his skills and actual combat. He did not mind the energy consumption at all. He was also prepared to break through to Class 2 through the use of Flame Rocks.
Indeed, no one was stupid.
“I heard from Elsa that we might be leaving Fire Dragon City in a few days. I have to hurry and make a few trips to the Lava World to see if I can advance to Class 2.”
