Chapter 120: Special Affairs Group's Golden Talent Player (April 1600 Monthly Ticket Bonus Chapter)
"... Sparring?"
Qin Chuan, who had just swallowed a stamina-restoring fruit, looked shocked.
He knew that Ji Huai's sparring wasn't just the blade practice from earlier, but a sparring of supernatural abilities.
Not…
If you wanted to spar, you should have said so earlier! I would have switched my skills to all-ice to spar with you! He had just broken through today, excitedly bringing two of Shui Hua's skills.
As soon as we spar, wouldn't that expose his breakthrough?
Now there's only one Elite Tier Spirit Beast in the whole world; wouldn't his player identity be exposed directly? "Ji Teacher, it's pretty late today, how about…"
"Looks like you've rested well." Ji Huai gave Qin Chuan no chance to make excuses, his wrist shaking as a long sword instantly condensed, slashing toward Qin Chuan.
Damn! Qin Chuan cursed inwardly, but he had no choice but to instantly condense streams of water, forming a giant hand to intercept the long sword.
Heavenly Waterfall cannot be used!
For now, the only option is to use Dark Current Bind on one skill to fight Ji Huai.
Moreover, he must restrain himself as much as possible, not revealing too great a supernatural value.
Frost Cold erupted instantly, the biting cold suppressing the flames blazing on the long sword and also turning the water flow into an ice-water mixture.
Ji Huai's other hand instantly pressed the sword's hilt; the metal ring at his wrist decomposed, letting the long sword instantly extend to two or three meters, transforming into a heavy horse-slaying blade, its scorching red body surging with violent heat as it descended amid the rising white mist.
Qin Chuan gritted his teeth as another stream of water instantly merged into the Water Hand; with the increase in water volume, the effect of Dark Current Bind strengthened, revealing hidden power as he forcibly pressed down on the opponent's blade.
Ji Huai drew his sword, transforming it into an axe, then a halberd, then a staff.
"Clang clang clang—"
The high-strength alloy in his hand changed shape like liquid, and three consecutive weapon transformations in the span of a breath made Qin Chuan's expression shift instantly.
Wrong!
At this moment, Ji Huai's displayed strength exceeded his expectations!
Could it be… that Ji Huai had never shown his true strength before them? "Fighting me, and you still dare to be distracted?"
Ji Huai bellowed, the long staff in his hand instantly becoming a double-handed sword; he opened with both sides, the left hand's sword heavy and sinking, the right hand's sword light and agile like water, combining hardness and softness, shattering metal and splitting stone.
Twin Taiji Swords!
Just this move alone let Qin Chuan confirm that Ji Huai's previously revealed strength was certainly not all of it, possibly not even fifty percent.
"Clang clang clang—"
Ji Huai's left-hand sword was wrapped in a soaring fire momentum; each slash forced Qin Chuan to respond with all his might, while his right-hand sword, agile like a snake, often struck from angles Qin Chuan could never anticipate.
In just an instant, it put Qin Chuan, who was trying to hold back his strength, into an absolute disadvantage.
"Go all out! Why hold back?"
Ji Huai let out another low shout, his left hand wielding a fire-infused chopping sword; in the instant Qin Chuan's center opened wide, his right-hand sword shot out like a spirit snake, so fast it flashed dazzlingly under the night lamp, instantly leaving a bloodstain on Qin Chuan's shoulder.
Qin Chuan didn't answer; from the scattered water streams, countless ice spikes instantly shot out toward Ji Huai's face and body, and Ji Huai's left-hand sword flicked, shattering all the ice spikes.
Seeing Ji Huai still wanting to continue, he couldn't help but grit his teeth and pointed fiercely at Ji Huai.
This is what you made me go all out for! Heavenly Waterfall! "Boom!!!"
Instantly descending, tens of tons of water instantly enveloped Ji Huai's body, crashing down like a waterfall before reversing upward into the sky.
Ji Huai's body, covered in metal armor, was hurled high into the air; at the moment before landing, the armor decomposed into a long spear that slammed into the ground to stabilize his stance.
His robes were torn to shreds, his body bearing several bloodstains; even if he reacted instantly, he was still injured by this powerful blow.
After the strike, Qin Chuan drew a deep breath, watching Ji Huai approach step by step.
In the heat of battle there was no time to think deeply; in the moment Heavenly Waterfall flung Ji Huai away, he recalled everything and understood.
Ji Huai already knew his player identity before the sparring.
That's why he went all out—to force out his full strength.
Qin Chuan, realizing this, instantly grew nervous.
He had thought his player identity might be exposed, but not this quickly. As Ji Huai strode over, his dangling hand clenched slightly.
Just whether Ji Huai knew, or the Special Affairs Group knew? If the latter, how would the Special Affairs Group handle him?
"Thud—"
Ji Huai stood before him.
"Your real identity is listed as classified secret information of the Yanhuang State." Ji Huai's voice was rather calm, "Likewise classified are your dream-world transaction records."
"Huh?"
Qin Chuan blinked, looking at Ji Huai, obviously not expecting him to say that.
"Besides that, your Special Affairs Group cooperation agreement benefits have been increased." Ji Huai, seemingly ignoring Qin Chuan's expression, continued on his own, "The monthly subsidy has been raised to fifty thousand yuan; undertaking Special Affairs Group cooperation tasks will earn Special Affairs points, not cash rewards."
"Opening permissions for the Special Affairs Group mall, you can directly purchase supernatural resources with Special Affairs points."
"Last…" Ji Huai, ignoring Qin Chuan's shocked expression, produced a lead-sealed box and handed it to him, "Open it, remember the information inside, and under no circumstances leak even a bit."
"... Okay." Looking at the three characters "Top Secret" on the lead seal, Qin Chuan carefully took and opened it, glanced inside the box, and then blinked in surprise.
It was a small slip of paper like a business card, with only two lines of small text.
"Chang Jinze, contact phone: xxxxxxxxxxx"
"Game zone: 4764, game name: Long Ji"
A player's dream-world and real-identity information? Qin Chuan was still dazed, but Ji Huai again spoke in a low voice, "Did you note it down?"
"Noted." Qin Chuan came to his senses.
The cultivation method gave him an all-around quality boost; his memory also improved considerably, so the phone number and game zone were memorized at a glance.
Ji Huai gave a slight nod, then in the next instant picked up the box, without even looking, crushed it together with the inner card, and then set it ablaze, burning it to ashes.
"If you encounter any danger in the Dream World, you can contact him for help." Ji Huai glanced at Qin Chuan, seemingly worried that Qin Chuan hadn't grasped his meaning, and spoke again.
"Remember, it's any danger."
After speaking, Ji Huai turned and left, giving Qin Chuan no chance to ask questions.
Watching Ji Huai's retreating back, Qin Chuan's expression became complicated.
Ji Huai never mentioned his game identity the whole time, but the significant increase in various treatments almost amounted to a hint: the Special Affairs Group knows his game identity and does not intend to interfere excessively.
Most important of all, that is the top-secret level identity information.
He understood Ji Huai's hint; if he cannot deal with Ailikete, he can seek help from Chang Jinze.
What kind of player has merely their identity information listed at a level higher than confidential—top secret? What kind of player could make the Special Affairs Group so confident that even if Ailikete arrived, they could still cope? There is only one answer.
The opponent whose game name is "Long Ji" is another possessor of a golden talent.
One… a golden-talent possessor belonging to the Special Affairs Group! Recommended read: 《In the Supernatural City, Cultivating the Wildest History》
