Chapter 712 Hundred Ghosts! The Hundred Ghosts March Again!
"If seeing you again can't redden my eyes, can it still redden my face..." The phone on the coffee table rang, and Jiang Xiao, wiping his head with a towel, hurriedly ran out of the bathroom.
Jiang Xiao looked at the photo displayed on the caller ID. Yo?
Whose girl is this? How is she so beautiful?
He hurriedly answered the phone, "Hello?"
Unexpectedly, a barrage of words came from the other end: "You have time to send messages, don't you know how to call directly?"
Jiang Xiao weakly said, "I was afraid you were in class."
"Where are you?" Han Jiangxue asked.
"Well," Jiang Xiao said, wiping his wet buzz cut, "I'm at Xia Yan's house, Mid-Levels Maple Forest."
As he spoke, Jiang Xiao felt a semi-transparent, pitch-black teleportation shield spread out from his body.
Behind him, Han Jiangxue had already teleported over. She hung up the phone and looked at Jiang Xiao coldly.
The temperature in the room seemed to drop a bit, and it fell into silence.
Jiang Xiao scratched his head awkwardly and said, "Have you eaten?"
Han Jiangxue almost laughed out of anger. She'd been gone for almost a month, and the first thing he said when they met was, "Have you eaten?" Was he really concerned about her health?
"Well," Jiang Xiao thought for a moment, taking advantage of Han Jiangxue's unhappiness to add fuel to the fire, "I have to leave again the day after tomorrow."
Han Jiangxue: "..."
Hearing that Jiang Xiao was leaving again, Han Jiangxue's attitude improved a lot. At least she was willing to talk to Jiang Xiao.
Han Jiangxue: "What mission? Is it dangerous?"
Jiang Xiao was secretly pleased. As expected!
Collapse-style therapy!
One bad news after another caught her completely off guard! Turning her anger into worry and concern.
Wow, Jiang Xiao, aren't you too cunning!?
Jiang Xiao said, "There's no big problem. After I come back, I guess I'll be able to use Star Pets openly."
Han Jiangxue raised her eyebrows slightly, "Oh? Your Black and White Candle Bear passed the test?"
"Yeah," Jiang Xiao nodded and said, "I guess so. The expert team is still researching it and it should be made public soon. I can take it out and have fun from now on, making those people who don't even have Star Pets jealous, hehe..."
Jiang Xiao was amusing himself, and seeing Han Jiangxue's expression, he quickly said, "Oh right, I have to tell you something else. I reported the matter of the Other World."
Han Jiangxue's heart tightened, "Who did you report it to?"
Jiang Xiao waved his hand and sat on the sofa, "Don't worry, I told Er Wei, and under a disguised state, I reported it to the vice chairman of the National Star Association."
Jiang Xiao didn't want to dwell on this topic too much and continued, "Oh right, aren't you curious about what my mission is? I'm going to be a nanny."
Han Jiangxue glanced at Jiang Xiao and turned to walk to the kitchen, "Heh."
"Really, you don't believe me." Jiang Xiao hurriedly got up and followed her, finding that she seemed to be cooking, and hurriedly persuaded, "Let's order takeout, or we can go out to eat, don't bother."
Han Jiangxue washed her hands in the sink and said, "Xia Yan secretly ordered roast duck and beer last night. There's still half a roast duck left in the refrigerator. I'll heat it up for you and cook a bowl of noodles. Just make do with it."
Han Jiangxue!
You're so capable!
Jiang Xiao crossed his arms and leaned against the doorframe, and said unhappily, "Why are you so nice to me?"
Han Jiangxue found a handful of noodles in the cupboard and said, "The roast duck will go bad if we don't eat it."
Jiang Xiao: "..."
She heated the pot and added oil. Han Jiangxue took out a scallion from the refrigerator and started cutting it, obviously preparing to stir-fry the noodles. "Who are you being a nanny for?"
Jiang Xiao became interested and said, "The Crown Prince of Kang Ke Jin De!"
"Oh?" Han Jiangxue looked at Jiang Xiao in surprise, "The son of that person who just took over a few days ago?"
Jiang Xiao nodded, but said with some distress, "That kid's Star Chart is actually a disheveled humanoid ghost, and he insists that I help him transform Star Power into Star Techniques. It's making me worried."
Han Jiangxue: "Star Sea stage?"
Jiang Xiao: "Star River stage, he's only in his early 20s."
Han Jiangxue: "What Star Technique are you turning Star Power into at the Star River stage? Did you show him the Flower Blade?"
Jiang Xiao scratched his head: "No, I did help a Star River stage warrior touch the threshold of transforming Star Power into Star Techniques. That kid was envious and jealous."
Han Jiangxue stopped her movements slightly after she finished cutting the scallions.
Jiang Xiao said, "Hou Mingming, you know her, the captain of my World Cup team. Let me tell you, the characteristics of her Star Technique..."
Whoosh!
Before Jiang Xiao could finish speaking, Han Jiangxue threw the scallions into the boiling oil, and the force with which she threw the scallions looked somehow wrong.
Jiang Xiao felt that the atmosphere was not right, and immediately said, "I'm leaving the day after tomorrow!"
Han Jiangxue: "Leave after you eat the noodles."
"If seeing you again can't redden my eyes, can it still redden my face..." The phone ringtone completed a god-level assist!
Jiang Xiao hurriedly took out his phone from his pocket and said, "Hello?"
Xia Yan's voice came from the other end of the phone: "You're back?"
Jiang Xiao: "Yeah, I'm eating noodles."
Xia Yan: "Where, where? I want to eat too!"
Jiang Xiao: "Your house."
"Oh..." The enthusiasm in Xia Yan's voice diminished by more than half, "I have another class later, so I won't ask for leave. I'll go back after class. By the way, there's still half a roast duck in the refrigerator, you can help me eat it."
Jiang Xiao: ???
......
At the same time, in the upper dimension of the Snowy Plains.
A raven nimbly shuttled through a dense forest. This time, it entered the upper dimension from the Sacred Ruins. The location it teleported to was relatively close to the Sacred Ruins in the upper dimension. It only took less than a month to find the right location, saving a lot of time.
The pitch-black raven was overjoyed and quickly flew into the spacious cave.
The scene here remained unchanged for ten thousand years. White Ghosts crowded towards the outside of the cave, and from time to time, one could see scenes of White Ghosts biting each other fiercely.
The pitch-black raven was just a passerby, ignoring these disturbances. While Jiang Xiao and Han Jiangxue were having a warm meal, it passed through the interconnected underground tunnels, all the way down, and finally plunged into the Sacred Ruins of the upper dimension.
In the next moment, the weather was fine, with blue skies and white clouds.
The dates of the Other World and the Earth seemed to be synchronized. There were spring, summer, autumn, and winter, and clear days and nights.
In the early afternoon of May, it was still relatively warm. In this mountain forest with lush trees, the pitch-black raven finally had the opportunity to rest its feet, standing on top of a giant tree.
Its lone eye looked around, searching for possible dangers.
Other World!
I'm here again!
Last time, I escaped the clutches of the tyrant Ice Soul, but unfortunately, I was bitten to pieces by a big fish.
This time, what awaits me will be...
Huh?
The pitch-black raven jumped around on the treetop, looking around.
This place was actually a birch forest...
The birch trees in this Other World were generally taller, with the tallest reaching more than 50 meters, which was in line with the ecological environment of the Other World.
This mountain forest opened Jiang Xiao's eyes, and the raven continued downwards.
After the dense leaves no longer blocked the view, what came into view was an endless expanse of birch trunks.
On the white trees, there were also pieces of peeling bark, like pairs of pitch-black eyes, staring in all directions.
In the next moment, the pitch-black raven's body stiffened slightly.
It slowly turned its head and looked into the distance, hearing the rustling sound of the birch forest.
Jiang Xiao was very sure that it was not the sound of the wind blowing, and those heavy footsteps made Jiang Xiao realize that he might be in trouble again.
Fast!
Too fast!
In the blink of an eye, an army arrived!
The pitch-black raven was so frightened that it hid behind a tree, stepping on the branches, its body tightly against the birch tree, hiding in the blind spot of the advancing army.
One... two... three...
One by one, giant Ape Ghosts swiftly shuttled below, as if in a 100-meter race.
As the army approached, the giant birch trees shook continuously. Bang!
A giant hand grasped the giant tree where the pitch-black raven was hiding. The steel-like claws pierced deeply into the tree trunk. An Ape Ghost fixed its body, hanging on the giant tree. The heavy breathing made Jiang Xiao's heart jump to his throat.
I'm entering the Snowy Plains! Why am I encountering the weapons depot terrain of Bei Jiang Province again?
Where did I get teleported to?
Swish...
The giant Ape Ghost flew through the air, and with a stomp of its feet, the giant tree shook gently. With the rustling sound of the leaves, the Ape Ghost "flew" out and landed on another giant tree.
The raven's little feet grabbed the branches, shallowly piercing into the branches, and slowly moved its body.
Finally, like a bat, it hung upside down on a branch, carefully hiding itself, watching the army pass by.
The last time it saw such a spectacular scene was when it first entered the lower Snowy Plains. That time, the army that passed by was a White Ghost swarm.
Compared with that rapid march, although the Ape Ghosts were relatively fewer in number, not even a hundred, their momentum was worlds apart.
In the lower dimension, ordinary Ape Ghosts were about 2 meters tall, while the Gold-rank Ape Ghost Kings were about 2.5 meters or more.
Looking at this group of ordinary Ape Ghosts, each one had the giant body of an Ape Ghost King. Jiang Xiao almost thought it was a team composed of Ape Ghost Kings!
Bang!
The giant birch tree shook again. A giant hand pierced into the tree trunk, choosing this tree as a foothold.
"Huff..." The heavy breathing seemed to indicate that this Ape Ghost was a little tired.
Their physical fitness was so explosive. What level of rapid march was this that made them so tired?
"Hmm?" The Ape Ghost, taking a brief rest, discovered something remarkable.
Its body was leaning forward, grabbing the tree trunk, originally observing the front, but its peripheral vision seemed to discover something?
Then, the Ape Ghost turned its head.
Those giant ape eyes saw a shivering little raven, hanging on a branch, its small body tightly clinging to the tree trunk...
The pitch-black raven and the Ape Ghost's movements were surprisingly consistent. It also slowly turned its head, a single lone eye looking at those two giant ape eyes.
Jiang Xiao was about to cry: Big brother! I just got here... I just got here, okay!? Can you give me a way out?
The Ape Ghost nimbly changed its body position, climbed a step around the tree, tilted its giant head, and carefully looked at the raven.
Jiang Xiao: !!!
Go to hell!
I really just got here!
"Hmm?" The Ape Ghost made a strange throat sound, curiously reaching out a hand towards the raven...
I peck!
Gold * Cyan Glow!
The raven's sharp beak pecked at the Ape Ghost's big hand, directly pecking the Ape Ghost eight meters away!
Thump!
The giant Ape Ghost directly smashed to the ground, creating a deep pit in the relatively soft mountain forest ground!
"Roar!" The Ape Ghost lay in the pit, frantically getting up, roaring angrily.
In an instant, the rapid march that had been trying to remain silent suddenly boiled over. Ape howls rose from all directions, filling this birch forest.
Flap flap flap...
A group of ravens suddenly burst out from the little raven's body, rushing towards the giant Ape Ghost.
"Roar!!!" The Ape Ghost frantically scratched with both hands.
Rumble!
The ravens exploded, and flames soared into the sky!
Silver-level Phantom Raven + Gold-level Chaotic Raven!
Art is explosion... Holy crap!?
"Huff! Huff! Huff!"
"Huff! Huff! Huff!"
A series of sonorous and forceful, short and rapid slogan-like sounds made Jiang Xiao slightly stunned.
Finally, Jiang Xiao knew why this group of Ape Ghosts was trying to hide their figures and move forward so quickly. Were these guys trying to ambush a Savage team?
The sounds in the distance were clearly the sounds of the Savage camp.
You gods are fighting, what's it to me?
Although I am a bird, it really has nothing to do with me...
Jiang Xiao flew upwards frantically, and the Ape Ghost, which had repeatedly suffered setbacks at Jiang Xiao's hands, seemed to have forgotten its feud with the Savages. It climbed out of the dense branches and leaves, took off on the spot, leaped high again, and rushed towards Jiang Xiao.
In the high sky, the pitch-black raven suddenly turned around, about to attack, but saw a scene that surprised it.
Because it flew high enough, it saw an empty piece of land in the distance below.
In this dense birch forest, such an open space was obviously man-made.
What surprised Jiang Xiao even more was that it was not just an open space, but a cemetery!
Several Savages fled in panic, while several Savages wielding weapons had adopted a defensive posture, shouting loudly...
A cemetery?
Was this a place that Savages should build?
How could the Savages resist the desire for blood and flesh?
Could it be that the Savages in the Other World had already possessed a certain degree of civilization and no longer ate the corpses of their companions?
Jiang Xiao did encounter a Savage once in the Liao Dong Province region, and the combat literacy of that male knife team was indeed eye-catching.
But... even if the Savages no longer ate the corpses of their companions, they would not have evolved to the point of building cemeteries for their companions, right?
Such behavior was too "human."
Huff...
While thinking, a giant palm slapped over. The small raven was like a fly under the Ape Ghost's giant palm, and was slapped far, far away.
Distraction on the battlefield is a major taboo for military strategists!
And Gold-level Endurance had done its job!
Don't blame Jiang Xiao for thinking about these things on the battlefield. This scene was indeed too unexpected and too shocking.
"Damn it..." The pitch-black raven quickly transformed into a human. Although Jiang Xiao was carrying a giant blade on his back, he casually summoned it and held a deep red giant blade.
Jiang Xiao, who had nowhere to borrow strength in the air, stopped his body, turned around, and did a fixed-point charge! He carved out a wave of blade light in the air!
On the deep red Flower Blade, a desperate color flashed past, like a lightning bolt, rushing straight towards the falling Ape Ghost!
Platinum-level Blade of Desperation!
In a deep red wave of blade light, a gloomy voice came out: "Did I give you face!?"
