Chapter 749: Chapter 433: The First Step, Introducing Nancy to Society
Jiang Zhi, who was in another jurisdiction carrying out various professional tasks, suddenly paused and shivered all over.
“What’s wrong?” An Nan noticed his unusual behavior.
Jiang Zhi rubbed his forehead with his hand. “I don’t know, I just had a feeling that a great disaster is coming, as if something big is about to happen.”
He muttered unconsciously.
An Nan sighed lightly and patted his shoulder,
“Don’t worry, Brother Su won’t have any problems.”
They had realized since their arrival that they and Su Buxian were separated.
And now five days had passed.
Still no trace or sign of him.
Even attempts to contact him using Starfire Chips were unsuccessful.
“It’s not him I’m worried about…” Jiang Zhi rubbed his brow, “It’s just that I’m worried… something big is coming.”
“Hmm?” An Nan was a bit puzzled.
“…You haven’t been in contact with him as long as I have, so naturally, you don’t know.” Jiang Zhi complained, “The scariest thing about Brother Su isn’t when he’s in front of you, but when he disappears.”
“Because often at such times, you don’t know what kind of surprise he will bring you.”
An Nan raised an eyebrow. “It can’t be that exaggerated…”
remembering the time he had spent in the Holy Light Corridor room, where he also… faced the shadows of the Old Days directly.
It really might not be…
“But there’s no need to worry, the frequency channel left by Brother Su on the Starfire Chip is very useful. If he shows up nearby, we will know,” An Nan said softly.
“Let’s continue to advance our status first, we must improve our ability levels.”
At this moment, they were in the jurisdiction of the team that included the Sons of the Divine Race.
It must be said that the Divine Son’s methods were extraordinary, as even here, their influence was preparing, having even taken over a jurisdiction.
This allowed them to comfortably increase points; both of them had risen from E to C level, and after jumping two levels, they could approach the roots of the World Tree, where the palace was located.
The radiance emanating from there allowed those who drew closer to benefit more.
And the improvement in status also gradually revealed its other importance, one of the key points being that those holding Holy Artifact Fragments… could better activate the power inside!
And even unleash astonishing might!
They were now in the territory reflecting C-level status, where ordinary adventurers were much fewer, and there were many medium and small forces, or well-known powerful adventurers.
Chenxing’s figure slowly appeared at a street corner, his body showing signs of battle, and his jade token slightly dimmed.
Next to him was Ah Qi, who was even more pitiable, already seriously injured, and walking with support, his body covered with various wounds.
“Mr. Chen?” An Nan and Jiang Zhi immediately stood up.
They were now on the same front, and along the way, they had exchanged information and supported each other as traveling companions.
But they hadn’t expected Chenxing and Ah Qi to end up .
“First, take him to get treatment,” Jiang Zhi immediately took over Ah Qi, while An Nan, as a Divine Son, was familiar with Chenxing.
His status was somewhat similar to Ah Qi’s, or even not as good…
After all, a member of The Hustlers Sect could not compare to a protector of a Divine Son.
An Nan looked at Chenxing. “What happened? Weren’t you transporting goods to another jurisdiction?”
Chenxing’s role was that of a courier, but his ability was not ordinary; he could arrange transports.
Chenxing patted the dust off his body, his expression cold,
“When a jurisdiction is controlled, there will be rules restricting it, but many places are not controlled and the bindings of the rules tend to weaken, so… there will always be people with certain intentions.”
After all, the rules of this current town were the withering power remaining from the Old World Tree, which, as time passed, would naturally weaken.
An Nan’s expression shifted slightly. “Other Divine Race Son’s teams? Or the Abyss?”
Those who would attack someone like Chenxing naturally weren’t ordinary.
Chenxing responded calmly, “Both.”
“There are the Abyss and the Divine Sons, they are already killing without restraint, disregarding the rules, becoming lawless.”
“Things are starting to get chaotic.”
“You all need to be careful when doing various things next, at least this place is under the Divine Sons’ jurisdiction… still somewhat safe.”
“But other places can’t be said for sure, especially since the higher the status… the weaker the rule restrictions.”
An Nan’s expression became slightly tense, and he nodded, “I’ll be mindful.”
Now, this place was mixed with dragons and snakes, various forces, confrontations between the Abyss and the Heavenly Destiny People, and many complex and intertwined contexts of the Divine Sons.
As time went by, the chaos would only increase!
“It’s already been five days… and it won’t be long until the town’s combat day,” Chenxing clapped An Nan on the shoulder, “Better prepare early.”
Chenxing headed toward the temporary outpost in the jurisdiction, which was also rented using points. Though temporary, it had quite a few benefits: no disturbances, and they could recover from injuries and restore Spiritual Energy.
An Nan took a deep breath.
Here, preparing early wasn’t really about the town’s combat day, but about… preparation for when the World Tree blooms and numerous powers spring up like bamboo shoots.
Going deeper into this place had cut off his and his fellow outer-world adherents, the followers of his father, the Wind God, from making contact.
Currently, he also had no idea what arrangements Brother Su had made.
By then, how he and Jiang Zhi would stand their ground was anyone’s guess.
