Chapter 537: Meeting the Human Torch Again !
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
After returning to the Demon Flame Fortress, Jiang Fei looked for the Demolition General Fritz.
“Master, I brought you the Highly Explosive Potions,” Jiang Fei said to Fritz.
“As expected, you did not let me down. Only an Elite Nephilim like you can accomplish such a daunting task so quickly!” Fritz said happily.
“Ding! Quest complete! Obtained 80,000,000 Experience Points. Obtained 3,000 gold coins. Obtained 15,000 Honor Points. Obtained 500 Reputation in the Dark Faction.”
“Ding! Congratulations Player Verdure Glider for reaching Level 69! All Attributes +1! Gained 5 Undistributed Attribute Points!”
As a golden light flashed, Jiang Fei’s level increased once again. This was because he had gained a lot of Experience when he was earning Reputation with the Merfolk. So, combined with this 80,000,000 Experience Points, Jiang Fei’s level increased to 69.
However, after he had completed this quest, the War Supplies series of quests was completely over. Jiang Fei walked all around the fortress, but there were no more suitable quests for him.
At this time, the three commanders were busy discussing war tactics and did not look like they were going to continue giving quests. Jiang Fei was too lazy to do the quests of those junior officers. After all, those simple quests just required players to kill designated Level 60 monsters, or to hand over certain quest items. These quests were designed for ordinary players. They were simple but also gave little Experience. Quests like these that gave only a few million Experience Points were not eye-catching to Jiang Fei at all.
As Jiang Fei had no more quests to do, he had time to relax. However, as he was followed by two beautiful girls, Isabella and Sylphy, he was not bored. Since there was nothing to do, Jiang Fei brought them for a walk around the vast land of the faction area. The sightseeing was accompanied by beautiful girls. This was also in line with Jiang Fei’s purpose of playing games to relax.
In the next few days, Jiang Fei basically spent his time the same way. During the day, he practiced martial arts on the island. In the evening, he hung out with the two girls in the game. Occasionally, when Ariel was free, she would directly come over and spend time with Jiang Fei for a while.
After a few days of interacting with the girls, Jiang Fei gained a huge amount of experience in picking up girls. Although these two girls were also on a rookie level, Jiang Fei still learned a lot about how to interact with girls.
In a blink of an eye, ten days had pa.s.sed. During this time, Jiang Fei had completely mastered the application of “Origin Force”. Although Jiang Fei was unable to come up with a relatively advanced routine because of a lack of practical experience, his combat power had still increased more than three times compared to before!
“0541, let’s go home!” After coming out of the game today, Jiang Fei did not continue to practice.
“Yes, captain. You lack actual combat experience now. It’s really difficult to improve any more just by practicing on your own.” 0541 also agreed with Jiang Fei.
“Let’s go home, then!” Jiang Fei took out the Gigantic Saber out once again and then started on the way home.
“0541, how long have we been away?” Jiang Fei asked as he flew.
“It has been two weeks since the day of departure!” 0541 replied.
“Time flies!” Jiang Fei muttered.
“Warning! High energy detected ahead! I suggest you change routes!” Just as Jiang Fei was feeling eager to go home and see his parents, 0541’s warning rang.
“Energy intensity, coordinates!” Jiang Fei was already very familiar with 0541. Of course, he knew how to conveniently obtain more detailed and accurate information in a battle state.
“At seven o’clock, on a small island forty-five kilometers away, five Level 4 Metahumans are fighting!” 0541 quickly reported the results of his scan.
“Oh?!” Jiang Fei was slightly shocked.
“Captain, my current energy reserve is low, I suggest you avoid the battle zone!” 0541 urged Jiang Fei to change routes.
“Activate the invisibility system! Let’s go and have a look!” It was rare for Jiang Fei to not listen to 0541’s advice.
As the Gigantic Saber was very fast, while Jiang Fei and 0541 were still talking, he was already less than ten kilometers away from the battle site. At this time, Jiang Fei who also had Level 4 strength could already feel a familiar atmosphere from the aftermath of the battle between the four Metahumans!
Shroder! Human Torch Shroder! He was the deacon of the Mutants Brotherhood. His position in the Mutants Brotherhood was similar to old man Hai’s position in the China Martial Arts Alliance. The most important thing was that this guy was Jenny’s brother, and Jenny was Phoenix’s predecessor.
Previously, Phoenix had helped Jiang Fei big time. So, no matter what, Jiang Fei had to go and have a look.
“Okay! I will follow your orders!” Although 0541 did not recommend that Jiang Fei approach the battlefield, he was just a support system. Jiang Fei had the decision-making powers in his hands.
“Buzz!”
Following a subtle energy fluctuation, 0541 activated the invisibility system that used mirror refraction technology to cover Jiang Fei’s figure.
“Captain, although the invisibility system has been turned on, you should not get too close to the battlefield. Even if you do not use any energy, it can easily be sensed if you are too close,” 0541 reminded him.
It was not just martial artists. Even other Metahumans could sense energy. However, other than some special types of Mutants, most Western Metahumans did not have strong senses like China martial artists. Moreover, because the internal strength of China martial artists was more hidden, it was also less likely to be sensed.
“Got it!” Jiang Fei nodded, then drove the Gigantic Saber toward the battlefield.
From far away, Jiang Fei could already see the situation on the battlefield. It was also a small island, but it was much bigger than the small island that Jiang Fei practiced on. The radius was a couple of kilometers.
At this time, on the beach on the leeward side of the island, there were five Metahumans fighting!
As it was a deserted island, the five Metahumans fought with full powers. They did not restrain themselves at all. Flames and bolts of lightning complemented each other and violent explosions erupted one after another.
With just a glance, Jiang Fei already understood what was happening. The Human Torch Shroder and another female Mutant who used lightning powers were trying their best to resist the attacks of the three Level 4 masters.
However, the situation on the battlefield was not looking good at this time. The Human Torch Shroder and that lightning woman were only lower Level 4 Metahumans, whereas one of the three guys on the opposite side had reached intermediate Level 4. If it was not because of the fact that the three opponents had to bring Shroder and the lightning woman back alive, the battle would have been over long ago.
“d.a.m.n! These j.a.panese people are stepping more and more over the line!” Jiang Fei immediately became angry after watching the battle!
The reason was very simple. Shroder’s opponents were actually three Bio-Humans! Perfectly controllable Level 4 Bio-Humans!
Judging from the performance of the three Bio-Humans, Jiang Fei suspected that the j.a.panese had started to ma.s.s produce high-leveled Bio-Humans. Moreover, they had managed to grasp the technology so well that they were now able to create at least Level 4 intermediate Bio-Humans!
“This isn’t good news!” Jiang Fei’s brows furrowed.
“Ah…” Just as Jiang Fei frowned, Shroder’s left arm was. .h.i.t with corrosive mucus that one of the Bio-Humans spat. It immediately became swollen and he could no longer feel his whole arm!
