Chapter 181: Ironclad? Submarine?


Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations


The next day.


Lin Yan was about to ask Liu Lanqing if the patrolling would continue. The moment he went out, he met Yu Qian and Jiao Liang.


‘They’re back?’


Yu Qian walked in front while Jiao Liang followed her with a smile. From time to time, he would talk to Yu Qian, but Yu Qian kept a distance from him and ignored him.


“Senior Brother Lin!”


Seeing Lin Yan, Yu Qian’s eyes lit up. She walked up quickly. “Senior Brother Lin, long time no see.”


Lin Yan nodded at her. It was obvious that Jiao Liang felt resentful.


“Jiao Liang, 1 heard that the Spirit Marrow buried this time is only first-grade. It corresponds to the strength of the Tough Realm. Aren’t you already at the Tough Realm?”


Jiao Liang scratched his head. “Well, it would be a waste not to bury it.”


He pulled up his sleeve, revealing his wrist, which had a shallow wound. “Moreover, my martial arts are cultivated on my feet. After 1 bury the Spirit Marrow in my hand, it can greatly increase the strength of my arm and allow me to reach the Tough Realm. I can be considered to have increased my strength!”


Lin Yan nodded. Spirit Marrow was very strange. Until now, Lin Yan still didn’t know where it came from, especially what Guo Fan had said before he died. It made him resist the Spirit Marrow.


“Where have you been for the past five days?”


Jiao Liang looked hesitant, but Yu Qian continued, “Senior Brother Lin, we were in a strange ship these five days. I think it was a ship!”


“You think it was a ship? What’s so strange about it?”


Yu Qian seemed to recall an extremely shocking scene. “That ship is very big! I can’t describe it. In any case, it’s very big. It’s about the size of a district in Ding’an City!


“Moreover, there’s not a single piece of wood on it! It’s completely made of iron!


“I really don’t know how an iron ship can float?


“By the way, the strangest thing is… this ship came from the bottom of the water!”


Ironclad!


Lin Yan gasped.


As for Yu Qian, she was still talking. “At that time, we first went from a hidden cave to the underground. We followed the Netherworld River and walked to the side of a huge lake. The iron armored ship suddenly surfaced. Previously, it stayed under the water!”


Underwater?


Not only an ironclad, but also a submarine?


Lin Yan looked around. The dilapidated roof tiles and undeveloped productivity…


A ridiculous expression appeared on his face uncontrollably. So the prefecture capital was really a place where civilization surpa.s.sed Ding’an City?


To be able to build a submarine, it meant that the civilization level of the prefecture capital was at least at the beginning of the steam era!


It was as if a mysterious veil had been removed from the world. Lin Yan looked at the ordinary things around him and felt even more strange.


On the other hand, because Yu Qian and the others did not understand what these things meant, they were immersed in the magical admiration and yearning for the prefecture capital.


Taking a deep breath, Lin Yan calmed his restless mood. “What about your Dingdeng Genius Battle? Did they tell you how the selection method is?”


Yu Qian nodded and said, “1 heard that there will be a month of unified training first. Then, after a month, there will be missions a.s.signed. The rankings will be decided according to the missions accepted and completed. Finally, there will be a final selection… The process is quite complicated. It’s said that it will last for three to four months.


“This is all arranged by the new Teacher Ling of Qianyuan Academy. It’s said to be more fair.”


There was also unified training?


Was there enough manpower?


After separating from Yu Qian, Lin Yan walked straight to the side hall where Liu Lanqing was.


Just as he walked past the two doors, strong heat and frost forces suddenly rose. Liu Lanqing’s furious voice came from afar. “Ling Shuangxue, you’re going too far!”


Lin Yan stopped in his tracks. Fine, let’s visit her another time.


When he returned to his courtyard, he first chatted with Xiaozhi and Senior Sister Chen. Then, he practiced the Tiger-Shaped Fist in the courtyard.


The Phoenix Spear required a large spear, and with his current strength, ordinary spears naturally could not withstand his strength. He did not have the time to find a suitable spear.


He practiced for a while. Dong, dong, dong.


There was a knock on the door.


“Lin Yan, is Lin Yan home?!”


An eye looked in through the crack in the door.


Lin Yan opened the door. “Ning Xiaohui, what are you doing here?”


“I’m here for you. Sigh, I don’t know if you’re lucky or unlucky. Let’s go, let’s go. The Venerable Issuer Bai is looking for you!”


“Looking for me?”


Lin Yan and Ning Xiaohui walked out together and quickly entered the side hall where Liu Lanqing was previously.


At this moment, more than half of the side hall had collapsed. Half of it was charred, and the other half was frozen. Liu Lanqing and Ling Shuangxue were already gone.


Bai Ling was standing in the middle, pressing his forehead with a vexed expression.


“Lin Yan, you’re here.”


Only then did Lin Yan know that there were only five people from Qianyuan Academy this time. They did not have enough people to carry out the plan and wanted to requisition the patrol guards.


Especially, Ling Shuangxue specifically asked Lin Yan to be transferred to her. “Why me?”


“You’re from Ding’an City, unlike the others who are registered in the Demon Suppression Division, so strictly speaking, you’re not considered a Demon Suppression Guard. It’s reasonable for Ling Shuangxue to borrow you.”


This reasonableness naturally had to be questioned. If her strength was overwhelming, there was naturally no need to care about reasonableness. However, now that Liu Lanqing had an evenly matched opponent, she had no choice but to be reasonable.


Lin Yan hesitated for a moment before cupping his hands and asking respectfully, “Venerable Issuer Bai, why does Teacher Ling insist on borrowing me?”


Bai Ling shook his head and said, “Isn’t it just a little girl’s trick? She saw that Liu Lanqing valued you, so she thought of ways to make things difficult for Liu Lanqing!”


“So that’s how it is…”


The conflict between these two people seemed to be very deep, but did they use such a comical method?


“Then, Venerable Issuer Bai, allow me to ask, what should I do after being borrowed?”


Bai Ling was stunned and looked at Lin Yan with increasing satisfaction. This meant that he was willing to listen to the Demon Suppression Division’s orders.


“We don’t want to play this childish game. After you go over, you’ll do things impartially and do your job diligently. You’ll only be borrowed for a month. You can come back in a month.”


“Yes.”


Ning Xiaohui was still waiting at the door.


“Lin Yan, why? Do you still have to patrol?”


Lin Yan nodded.


Ning Xiaohui patted Lin Yan’s shoulder. “Don’t be discouraged. At least, it’s very safe to stay in Ding’an City! Unlike us, we have to explore ruins at the risk of death!”


Lin Yan nodded again. If possible, he actually wanted to move freely and see if he could find an opportunity to hunt and acc.u.mulate more Spirit Marrows.


However, Ning Xiaohui was right. Just the insect tide in the ruins was already very dangerous. He did not know what was under it.


“Xiaozhi’s illness is related to that ruin. No matter what, 1 have to investigate it in the end.”


Another day later.


The Demon Suppression Division, or should it be called the Acting City Lord’s Manor now?


In the hall, Lin Yan stood with his hands cupped. Ling Shuangxue was sitting in front of him, looking straight at him with her watery crescent eyes.


However, there was not much kindness in them. Instead, Lin Yan could clearly sense that the surrounding air was turning bone-chilling.


Lin Yan’s heart skipped a beat.


He kept feeling that this Ling Shuangxue had ill intentions.. She did not seem to be targeting Liu Lanqing, but him!
