Chapter 1207

The squad led by Ning Chen completed the SSS-rank mission flawlessly, and their reputation spread throughout F City.

For the following period, things were calm and peaceful; they slept until they woke naturally, ate breakfast upon rising, strolled around the area after eating, sat down to chat once the stroll was done, ate dinner after chatting, and then went back to sleep.

Ning Chen felt that if life continued like this, his limbs would eventually atrophy.

So, after finishing breakfast that day, Ning Chen gathered everyone together.

"Starting today, Xiao Han and I will begin special training for you. Gu Yanqi, Lin Yi, and Xu Chenchen, you three come with me. Xu Yue, Xu Ri, and Huo Jinglin, you three follow Xiao Han."

After forming the teams, Ning Chen led the three of them to the training ground provided by the elders; it was extremely spacious, enough for them to cause a ruckus.

Ning Chen began by instructing Gu Yanqi; facing each other, he said, "Gu Yanqi, use all your abilities to attack me. I need to see what your maximum capability can achieve."

Knowing Ning Chen's abilities, Gu Yanqi said nothing and simply raised his hand to attack.

Ice pillars slowly formed; although Gu Yanqi's ability was water, he could condense it into ice. However, while the attack power increased significantly, it became much harder to control and much harder to form than water.

Ning Chen waited for Gu Yanqi to form the ice pillars, counting the time as he did so.

It took a full eight seconds to form an ice pillar from water; that was too slow.

In combat, the Infected would not give them eight seconds to prepare.

Once the ice pillars formed, Gu Yanqi waved his hand, sending all the ice pillars attacking toward Ning Chen.

Ning Chen formed a thin protective shield; the ice stabbed directly into the shield and got stuck.

The ability Gu Yanqi tested was a high-level one, so naturally it was not weak; it was just that Ning Chen's ability was too strong.

Ning Chen roughly understood the situation of Gu Yanqi's ability; turning water into ice quickly was not easy and required long-term practice.

"Gu Yanqi, you must first practice control. Do you see that stone? You need to use water to move that stone to the other side. Once you can do that, start practicing turning water into ice. Similarly, have all that ice strike that stone."

The stone Ning Chen pointed to was naturally not an ordinary stone; if it were, Gu Yanqi's ability would shatter it upon impact.

This stone was covered by Ning Chen's ability and would shatter according to the frequency of Gu Yanqi's attacks.

Only when Gu Yanqi could release ice with a single wave of his hand would this stone shatter.

The next person needing instruction was Xu Chenchen, while Lin Yi had already been sent into his own space to wait.

Xu Chenchen's ability was wind; he currently controlled it quite well, but when shaping the wind into blades, it was always somewhat unstable.

The training Ning Chen gave Xu Chenchen was the same as Gu Yanqi's: using a stone wrapped in his ability for practice.

Unlike Gu Yanqi, Xu Chenchen needed to use wind to wrap the entire stone; every part of the wind contained blades, and only when these blades attacked the stone simultaneously could the stone shatter.

After completing the training plans for the two, Ning Chen arrived at the location where Lin Yi had entered his space, closed his eyes, used his ability to explore the area, and entered Lin Yi's space using Lin Yi's ability.

This time, Lin Yi's space contained not just that one house, but also a long table filled with all kinds of delicacies, and Lin Yi was there eating heartily.
