Chapter 688: The shadow cave

Two days later.

Under the guidance of instructor Jiang Hong, the team of four arrived in Tianjin city.

Qin Wangchuan was now the head instructor of the Star Warriors University in the imperial capital. He was also building the apprentice training system of the Star Warriors University in the surrounding cities. He was busy with important matters and didn’t have much time to escort everyone.

Therefore, the one leading the team was instructor Jiang Hong, a rules instructor who had explosive output and could quickly escape the battlefield.

In fact, in Qin Wangchuan’s opinion, instructor Jiang Hong was not the only one who protected the team. Jiang Xiao was also one of them.

Although instructor Jiang Hong was extremely serious, the team’s atmosphere couldn’t be too bad with Jiang Xiao around.

Ever since she got on the train, Xia Yan couldn’t help but be eager to try. Although she had two star techniques, Shadow Blade and shadow Blade Fury, she had never been to the shadow cave.

She had never even been to Jinmen city before …

After the team exited the station, Xia Yan suddenly said,””The streets are filled with Liu Yangs?”

The Tianjin thug referee, Liu Yang, was their alumnus and their opponent in the national high school competition.

After Jiang Xiao joined the selection plan for the wasteland reclaimers and became a soldier of both armies, the Beijiang bandits and the Tianjin thugs had less contact with each other.

Xia Yan and Liu Yang were both melee fighters. One of them was in the combat class while the other was in the assassination class. They even studied together for some of the courses, but she and Liu Yang had seen each other more often.

Jiang Xiao listened to the Tianjin accent and said with a smile,””Of course! Liu Yang is a native of Tianjin. Of course, his accent is similar to theirs.”

Xia Yan glared at Jiang Xiao in annoyance and retorted,””You’re the one who’s talking nonsense!”

However, Jiang Xiao looked at Gu Shi ‘an, who had a grave expression on his face. He patted his shoulder and said,””Don’t worry too much. You’ll have to face it eventually. You’re a wasteland reclaimers. The dimensional spaces that you’ll deal with in the future and the creatures of other dimensions that you’ll have to fight with are not for you to choose.

There were only benefits and no disadvantages to coming into contact with fallen shadow creatures early. After all, I’m here to protect you. It’s rare to see a healer like me. ”

“Yes.” Gu Shi ‘an replied casually. He took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket. His expression was as serious as his mood. He said a simple truth,”The shadow cave was not open to the public.

Just this sentence was enough to show how dangerous the shadow cave was.

And among dimensional spaces of the same level of danger, the shadow cave was obviously even more special!

As a member of li Zhuguang’s team, Jiang Xiao should be able to enter and exit most of the dimensional spaces that were open to the public. Under normal circumstances, the night guards stationed in the local dimensional spaces would give Jiang Xiao face.

However, the shadow cave of Tianjin was obviously not one of them.

As the creatures of other dimensions were all gold-grade and there was even a Platinum fallen Shadow Demon, the effects of their star techniques were too special and were all about harming the soul. Therefore, it was easy for them to cause an indelible blow and influence to the Star Warriors.

The military only organized personnel to kill Star beads and use them as material reserves on a regular basis. They would then give them to the members of the team in various ways so that the soldiers would have such powerful and strange star techniques.

Jiang Xiao didn’t know if he could obtain the right to pass through with his Night Watch officer’s pass. Instead of using his officer’s pass to test it out, he directly looked for Qin Wangchuan and helped him contact this place as a training location.

In fact, Qin Wangchuan was also against Jiang Xiao’s intention to enter the training ground.

The reason?

As mentioned earlier, the biological star techniques here were All Star techniques that attacked the soul of the human body. Star Warriors were very vulnerable to injuries here.

The battlefield wasn’t an arena, and no one would show mercy. Moreover, in this world, one could also kill in the arena.

Once a student’s soul was damaged, their body became stiff, or they were bound by shadow spirits and unable to move, these few seconds were enough to determine the life and death of a student.

Not to mention, there was also a god-like STAR technique: Sound of Silence!

There were star techniques that could soothe and heal the soul in this world, but they were very rare, just like those that could harm the soul.

However, it didn’t matter. Jiang Xiao was one of the “rare” ones and he had Bell.

What was more interesting was that Star Warriors with star maps of the war series were easier to absorb such soul-damaging star techniques.

They had acquired star techniques of the combat series, such as Shadow Spear, wrath of Shadow Blade, and so on. These star techniques had the effect of damaging the soul.

As for the rules awakened … There were too few star maps that were compatible with such Soul Star techniques.

The fallen shadow system was similar to the savage Sorcerer’s star technique, corpse spirit, in the Arsenal. Back then, Han Jiangxue had absorbed so many Savage sorcerer star beads, but she didn’t manage to acquire any star techniques.

Was Han Jiangxue not talented?

Of course not, it was all because Han Jiangxue’s star map did not match.

It could be seen that within the rules Department, there was a huge gap between the star maps.

The four young talents were gathered together, and they looked so outstanding. Even though Jiang Xiao and Han Jiangxue were wearing hats and masks, they still couldn’t avoid the attention of the crowd.

It was easy for people to associate these four people with the Star Warriors team. A team of four was the standard, and Gu Shi ‘an’s tall figure and broad shoulders looked like a big shield that gave people a sense of security.

As for the short-haired girl beside him, she looked like a melee fighter with her heroic temperament.

As for who was a medical awakened and who was a rules awakened, it was difficult to tell the man and woman wearing hats and masks.

“This way, let’s go.” Not far away, instructor Jiang Hong waved to the few of them. In front of him, there were two soldiers in casual clothes.

The crowd hurriedly walked over and quickly got into the van, escaping from the sight of the enthusiastic citizens.

In the van, Jiang Xiao was sitting in the back seat. He suddenly said to instructor Jiang Hong,””By the way, teacher Jiang, we’ve already communicated with teacher Qin. After this mission, we’re going to take a walk around Tianjin and try some pancakes. Teacher Qin has agreed.”

Instructor Jiang Hong turned around to look at Jiang Xiao and said,””Since cult Qin has promised you, I’ll return to the group first after we come out. You guys should seize the time.”

The soldier driving in front suddenly said,””Don’t go to any tourist spots. Don’t trust those restaurants. Go to the Laocheng District and find a small cart with eggs. It’s called authentic …”

Listening to the soldier’s efforts to speak Standard Mandarin, Jiang Xiao scratched his head and said after a long while,””Alright! You’re so tender!”

The soldier was speechless.

The other soldier in the passenger seat couldn’t help but laugh. “You’re quite similar. ”

……

Two hours later, the car slowly drove into a military camp at the northernmost part of Tianjin, near the border with Yanzhao province.

The so-called military camp was not a tent but a building complex. Jiang Xiao saw the heavily guarded soldiers and even saw a team of soldiers in camouflage short-sleeved shirts running in a line when he entered.

“One, two, three, four” the sound was particularly loud.

This time, the four-man team had an eye-opener. They had been to many different dimensional spaces and many encampments, but the entrance to the shadow cave was actually in the bottom three levels.

Underground base? It really was a different world.

This place was not open to the public. There were no public bathrooms, cabinets, wardrobes, and the like. They did not change their clothes. Under the lead of two soldiers, they handed over their wasteland reclaimers documents and came to a huge basement without any obstacles.

Instructor Jiang Hong took the invisible earphones from the soldier and passed them to everyone. Then, he took the lead and walked in directly.

While wearing the invisible earphones, Han Jiangxue waved her hand and caused the space around her to overlap. She then took out a sword and a giant sword and handed them to Xia Yan and Jiang Xiao.

“Let’s go. ” Jiang Xiao patted Gu Shi ‘an’s shoulder and the four of them entered.

As soon as they entered the “shadow cave,” everyone felt a chill.

The temperature here wasn’t high, and what he saw was also a wilderness.

The wild grass stubbornly drilled out from the ground. They were piled up piece by piece, and there were crushed stones everywhere. It gave off a feeling of an alternate dimension of Mount nocturnal disaster.

The difference between this place and Mount nocturnal disaster was that, although the sky here was gray, it was not dark. It was just cloudy.

This desert stretched as far as the eye could see. It was quiet and deathly silent all around, with only the scene of the wind blowing through the weeds.

Turning around, Jiang Xiao saw a group of wooden houses behind him. Outside the wooden houses, there was a campfire burning and a few soldiers were looking at them from afar before walking towards them.

While the soldiers were talking to instructor Jiang Hong, Han Jiangxue looked at the team and said,””Let’s review what we need to pay attention to. ”

Although the question was directed at the entire team, Han Jiangxue’s eyes were fixed on Xia Yan.

Xia Yan pursed her lips and said,”when the fallen Shadow Demon is discovered, the commander will decide whether to fight or escape immediately. We’ll strictly execute the commander’s orders and not be negligent at all.”

If you choose to kill the fallen Shadow Demon, then no matter how many fallen shadow creatures there are around it, you must not be disturbed by it. You must kill the fallen Shadow Witch first. Try to avoid any corpses from appearing in the fallen Shadow witch’s field of vision. ”

“Very good,” Han Jiangxue nodded.

Xia Yan was unconcerned and said,”as long as there are no corpses around, the fallen Shadow Demon will just be a mascot. Besides, doesn’t xiaopi have silence? it can control the fallen Shadow Demon until it dies.”

Han Jiangxue immediately glared at Xia Yan.

Xia Yan shut her mouth and hurriedly changed the topic.””By the way, we can bring the star beads we’re hunting out, right? I took it out from the cave of death last time. ”

Jiang Xiao looked at instructor Jiang Hong, who was negotiating with the soldiers, and frowned slightly.””Yes, but you can’t sell it. You can keep it for your own use.”

“Why can the star beads from the cave of death and the shadow cave be taken out?” Xia Yan asked in confusion. Do we have to hand over the star beads we obtained in the forest of tears? Is it because the effects of the star techniques of the tear Rain series are too special?”

Han Jiangxue thought for a while and said,”maybe …” Back then, we were apprentices. Now, we are the official wasteland reclaimers. ”

Xia Yan blinked and said,”indeed, the wasteland reclaimers are different. They’re full of benefits.”

“This is what the soldiers deserve,” Han Jiangxue said.

“There seems to be a situation,” Jiang Xiao said.

“What’s wrong?” Everyone turned to look and saw instructor Jiang Hong beckoning for everyone to go over.

The four members of the team walked forward quickly and came in front of instructor Jiang Hong and the soldiers.

Instructor Jiang Hong’s expression was serious as he said,””We lost contact with two teams that were collecting star bead resources a day ago at the same time.

The Guardians have already sent out six teams to search for them, but there have been no results yet. The Guardians want us to explore the West and report to us as soon as there is any news. ”

When instructor Jiang Hong said this, he also stared at Xia Yan.

Xia Yan immediately understood what he meant. He was going to rely on her tears STAR technique and she subconsciously turned to look at the team commander, Han Jiangxue.

Although Jiang Xiao was the team leader, just like the previous time when they went to Jindalai, Han Jiangxue’s position as the core leader had been completely established as soon as they set off from the capital.

Han Jiangxue, on the other hand, looked at him.

Although he was looking at her inquisitively, Han Jiangxue knew Jiang Xiao well and his decision was obvious.

“No problem,” he said. Jiang Xiao immediately said.

However, he was pessimistic about the search mission this time.

The shadow cave was called the shadow cave because the fallen shadow creatures lived in the underground cave. They would come above ground, but they were a minority.

Jiang Xiao had reason to speculate that the soldiers had met with an accident for them to lose contact with the two teams at the same time. He was afraid that it would be an encounter, but he didn’t think that such a battle would happen on the surface.

In that case, the effect of the domain tear STAR technique would be minimized.

This mission was a little difficult.
