Chapter 147: Black Feather Race
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The old wolf bear had indeed dropped gold coins.
It was even a big deal.
Lu Ming did not know what the others thought of the Knight Body’s Forging Technique, but he was quite satisfied with this Source Power Skill.
With the joy of returning with a full load, everyone returned to the Nanxiang colony. At dinner time, Huo Sheng came looking for them again with a solemn expression.
“There’s trouble.”
Lu Ming raised his eyebrows as Huo Sheng continued, “It’s been a long time since Lolita’s mother sent her a message. Moreover, the telepathic connection between them has been unilaterally cut off from Lolita’s mother’s side. I suspect there might be a problem in New York.”
But Lu Ming did not take it seriously.
He said frankly, “Aren’t you thinking too far ahead?”
Huo Sheng replied, “It’s not mainly about worrying for the safety of the people in New York. We’re too far apart, and we can’t help them from a distance. Their safety is in their own hands… What I’m worried about is that they might bring danger to us.”
There are two sides to everything.
The connection between Lolita’s mother and Lolita brought intelligence advantages to Nanxiang, but could also bring greater risks to Nanxiang.
This was a tricky situation to handle.
However, this was only Huo Sheng’s concern.
For Lu Ming, he was looking forward to the evening training.
This evening, he was planning to practice the Knight’s Body Forging Technique.
Huo Sheng was lost in his thoughts.
Maggie was also troubled.
She really wanted to contact her daughter and inform the Nanxiang gathering place about the situation here.
Unfortunately, as a Level 6 Awakened person with non-combat superpowers, she was too weak in the face of these fallen angels.
If she emitted any energy fluctuations, she would be severely warned.
In the evening, a group landed from the sky and began to prepare for today’s dinner.
The night in the Black Mist Zone was not pitch-dark, but the gray sky above had become even darker.
Dozens of Fallen Angels surrounded Maggie and Anderson, vigilant against any suspicious actions.
But it was mainly Maggie they were wary of; Anderson had no qualms about betraying the Nanxiang gathering place—it’s every man for himself.
Or perhaps, he enjoyed being a follower.
“How much further?”
asked a tall fallen angel at the front. After a moment’s pause, Maggie sighed and replied, “Today, we’ve covered about one-tenth of the distance.”
Fallen angels could fly, and they were quite fast.
From noon today, the group had flown for about eight hours, but they had only covered one-tenth of the distance from the drop point in New York to the Nanxiang gathering place. The vastness of the distance between them was evident.
The road ahead was long.
And the dangers along the way were numerous, even for this group of formidable fallen angels, there was always a risk of dying.
But that did not matter.
Compared to the significance and value of those who had undergone tribulation, the dangers were just necessary trials.
The three leading Fallen Angels began to discuss.
They spoke a language that directly reached the heart—thus, Maggie and Anderson understood what they were talking about.
“We’ll avoid the Dragon Spirit’s territory and take a detour.”
“On the right is the Lizard Territory. We can ask them for a favor and borrow a route. They won’t refuse us, the Black Feather Tribe.”
This made Maggie realize that these fallen angels were called the Black Feather Tribe.
“But even so, our speed is still too slow. If we keep going around like this, it will take us more than 20 days.”
“There’s no other way; we can only do this.”
After some casual chatting, the Black Feather Tribe fell silent.
They lit a bonfire and added some special material to release a scent that could drive away exotic beasts and mosquitoes.
In the glow of the fire, Maggie looked even more solemn, while Anderson seemed carefree.
The first day after entering the Black Mist Zone.
It was nighttime.
After a busy day, it was time for Lu Ming’s favorite way to end the day.
Exercise!
Standing in the open space outside the house, Lu Ming reviewed the key points of the Knight’s Body Forging Technique in his mind while surveying the surroundings.
The area was surrounded by a low wall, enclosing Lu Ming’s new home and creating a sizable courtyard.
The open space in the courtyard was Lu Ming’s daily exercise area.
This setup ensured that Luming wouldn’t be surrounded by onlookers while exercising, which suited him just fine.
He activated the starting stance of the Knight’s Body Forging Technique.
And he synchronized his specific breathing rhythm accordingly.
Lu Ming could sense the mystery factors in his body slowly integrating into his cells at a steady speed.
This was a deeper fusion.
At the same time, he opened his attribute panel.
The focus of his attention was on the Tiger Steps Stance Lv20 (0/2000), the
Resistance Stance Lv20 (0/2000), and the Knight’s Forging Technique (Beginner) (1/100).
As the Knight Body’s Forging Technique progressed, the proficiency of the Resistance Stance and the Tiger Steps Stance began to rise rapidly. Basically, each movement could increase the proficiency by 3 points!
On the other hand, the proficiency of the Knight’s Body Forging Technique did not fluctuate—it probably needed to complete a cycle before gaining proficiency.
Soon, half an hour had passed.
In the end, when Lu Ming stopped, the proficiency levels of the three skills were as follows:
Tiger Steps Stance Lv2i (385/2,100).
Resistance Stance Lv2i (385/2,100).
Knight’s Body Forging Technique (Beginner) (2/100).
His three-dimensional attributes increased by 1 point, and his free attribute points increased by 43 points!
A satisfying speed for Lu Ming.
At this moment, the sky was slightly dark.
The gray sky bore a touch of darkness.
Lu Ming, however, felt refreshed and not tired at all.
“Then let’s continue!”
It was unknown what time it was that night.
Lu Ming returned home and lay in bed, once again opening the attribute panel.
Name: Lu Ming
Level: Mortal Realm, Level 1
Strength: 2390.7
Physique: 2401.6
Agility: 1967.7
Free Attribute Points: 1284
Superpower: Awakening in progress…
Skills: Omitted.
Stance Techniques:
Tiger Steps Stance Lv24 (785/2400).
Resistance Stance Lv24 (785/2400).
Source Power Skill:
Basic Breathing Technique (mastery) (55/1,000).
Explosive Fist (Perfect) (7w/ioow).
Knight’s Body Forging Technique (Beginner) (5/100).
It could be seen that using the Knight’s Body Forging Technique to increase his attributes was relatively slow. Moreover, the attribute points he obtained were mainly concentrated in the free attribute points—which were a result of leveling up the two Stance Techniques.
But steady progress was good, and who knew what changes might occur when the Knight’s Body Forging Technique reached higher levels?
“So let’s plan this way.
“During this period of time, 1’11 focus on the Knight Body’s Forging Technique. First, max out the two sets of Stance Techniques, and wait for the Knight Body Forging Technique to level up before making adjustments.”
Lu Ming decided to temporarily put aside the practice of Explosive Fist and concentrate on the Knight’s Body Forging Technique.
With the future exercise plan in mind, Lu Ming closed his eyes and quickly fell asleep.
The second day after entering the Black Mist Zone.
The sky was dim, and the time was unknown.
However, following his biological clock, Lu Ming woke up on time.
After washing up in the courtyard, Zhang Chengcheng and Wei Lan had already prepared breakfast. After eating breakfast and resting for a while, Lu Ming immediately began his daily exercise routine.
About an hour later, the exercise ended and his three-dimensional attributes increased by 41 points!
Looking at the explosive increase in attributes, Lu Ming had a certain premonition.
That his days in the Black Mist Zone seemed to be… not too difficult…
