Chapter 854: Suppression

Real world, the jewelry store opened by Su Xiao.

Second-floor living room, the room was somewhat dim, with the curtains drawn tightly.

Su Xiao sat on the floor, his gaze sweeping around. This time, Bubu Wang didn't return to the real world with him but was forcibly left in the Reincarnation Paradise.

Noticing this situation, Su Xiao vaguely guessed the general content of the mission. Perhaps it was to let him kill violators staying in the real world?

After thinking about it, Su Xiao felt that in his current state, encountering a violator would mean being crushed. Since it was "breaking through physical limits," perhaps it was to let him perform some degree of training, but given the Reincarnation Paradise's consistent mission style, relatively safe training was unlikely.

Without external pressure, wanting to break through physical limits by relying on a few days of training was wishful thinking; that would require at least several years or even more than a decade of training.

Su Xiao tried to clench his fist. The surging sense of power in his body had disappeared. Previously, he could easily dismantle a Gundam with his bare hands, but now, he needed to rely on a wrench or a cutting machine.

Su Xiao checked his current abilities.

Health: 100%.

Mana: 50 (3,116, sealed)

Strength: 5 (76 + 3 equipment bonus, sealed)

Agility: 5 (76 + 3 equipment bonus, sealed)

Stamina: 5 (80, sealed)

Intelligence: 5 (79, sealed)

Charm: 5 (6, sealed)

Skill 1: Blade Master lv. 5.

Skill 2: Firearms Mastery lv. 5.

Skill 3: Mind's Eye lv.

Skill 4: Demon Seal (completely sealed)

Skill 5: Aura Release (completely sealed)

Skill 6: Magic-Resistant Constitution (70% sealed)

Skill 7: Shadow Spirit Constitution (65% sealed)

Skill 8: Heart Meditation lv. 4 (unsealed)

After checking his own attributes, Su Xiao's brows furrowed. The suppression was more thorough than he had imagined, and some passive skills were even completely sealed.

Now he could only fight relying on three skills: Blade Master, Firearms Mastery, and Mind's Eye. As for other passive abilities, they were either completely sealed or more than 50% sealed.

However, compared to these, Su Xiao's "Heart Meditation" had reached lv. 4. This wasn't a level upgraded through the Reincarnation Paradise, but the result of his daily insistence on meditation and perseverance.

【Tip: The 'Break Through Physical Limits' mission has been issued. Hunter can view it yourself.】

Receiving the prompt, Su Xiao activated the Reincarnation Brand with his intent. Sure enough, the mission list, which had always been gray in the real world, could be opened this time. He opened the mission list.

【Special Mission: Brave the Demon Cave】

Difficulty Level: Adaptive

Mission Introduction: Ahead at East Longitude 97°105', North Latitude 19°27.3'

Mission Information: This location is occupied by a large number of abnormal humans. The Hunter needs to go deep into this location and stay at the designated location for more than 30 minutes.

Mission Deadline: 5 natural days

Mission Reward: None

Mission Penalty: None

Tip: If the Hunter successfully completes the mission this time but fails to break through physical limits, this mission will be reset, the mission type will be changed, and the real-world stay time will be extended.

After checking the mission details, Su Xiao was somewhat confused. What were abnormal humans? Qiyuezhe? And looking at the tip at the end of the mission, the content of the mission wasn't the key; the key was being able to break through physical limits. This mission was issued for this purpose.

Without considering how to break through physical limits for now, Su Xiao felt malice in this mission. With his current physical fitness, his combat power wasn't strong. Even a First Tier Qiyuezhe could crush him in terms of attributes or even skills.

But if he were in a real battle with a First Tier Qiyuezhe, even if the other party's attributes and skills were stronger than Su Xiao's, it didn't mean Su Xiao would definitely lose. Combat experience wasn't on the same level at all. Even a tiger shackled all over wasn't something a cat could provoke.

Su Xiao came to the first floor of the shop and turned on the computer. He first had to confirm where the mission location was.

After some verification, Su Xiao found that the mission location was in an extremely remote no-man's-land.

Su Xiao began to investigate the information on this no-man's-land. The more he investigated, the more he felt something was wrong. The no-man's-land he was going to was desolate for hundreds of kilometers around, and there were several large forests nearby. Due to deforestation, most of these forests had begun to desertify.

Not only that, there was also a natural wetland nearby with many wild animals. Seeing this terrain, Su Xiao suddenly remembered that he had been here before. In this no-man's-land, there was a very dangerous small city, so dangerous that it couldn't be found on the map, and there were many poachers there.

If it were just that, it wouldn't be too dangerous. However, that small city was located in the cracks of the borders of three countries. Seeing the other two countries, Su Xiao immediately associated it with drug lords.

"So it's this ghost place. No wonder the coordinates felt familiar before."

After finding the destination of this trip through the map, Su Xiao touched the left side of his neck. He had been near there before, and he had been shot in the left side of his neck, almost losing his life there.

After determining the location of the destination, Su Xiao knew the danger level of this trip. If his attributes weren't suppressed, going there would be a vacation, but going there with the attributes of an ordinary person, it wouldn't be strange even if he lost his life.

Su Xiao stood up and walked toward the utility room. He took out a sledgehammer from the utility room and walked toward the basement.

The basement door wasn't locked. Su Xiao walked down the stairs into the basement and turned on the light.

A faint musty smell wafted over. He hadn't cleaned this place for a long time, but the weapons, spoils of war, contraband, etc., that he used when he was a killer were all hidden here.

Clearing the debris in the center of the basement, Su Xiao took off his shirt, moved his neck, and swung the sledgehammer in his hand.

Boom!

Cement debris splashed. In the neighboring wreath and burial clothes shop, Ma Fatty, who was rolling on the bed with his lover, was startled and entered a state of sainthood.

"It... it's over."

Ma Fatty's lover wore heavy makeup. She grabbed Ma Fatty's ear. This woman in her thirties was clearly unsatisfied. As the saying goes, at thirty like a wolf, at forty like a tiger, at fifty sitting on the ground can suck soil. How could this woman in her prime let Ma Fatty go?

"Mistake, mistake. That's it for today. You go back first."

"You..."

The anger in the woman's heart just rose, but she found that Ma Fatty wasn't joking; there was indeed something going on.

"Fine. If you're this useless next time, this lady won't serve you."

The woman put on her clothes and left. Soon, the roar of an engine came from outside.

Boom, boom, boom...

Sounds of hammering came from next door. Ma Fatty's mouth twitched.

"What is Su Xiao doing? It wouldn't be an enemy coming to the door, would it?"

Bare-chested and covered in fat, Ma Fatty gritted his teeth, took a crossbow from under the bed, and after loading the bolt with a stringer, Ma Fatty held the crossbow in one hand and a stun baton in the other, approaching the jewelry store from the back door. Soon, he entered the small courtyard behind the jewelry store.

Crack.

A crisp sound came from under Ma Fatty's feet.

"What is this?"

"Don't move!"

A loud shout came. Su Xiao rushed out from the back door of the jewelry store in a few steps. The alarm in the store had gone off before, which meant someone had entered the backyard, and the backyard's early warning system had been activated.

"What... what happened?"

Out of trust in Su Xiao, Ma Fatty didn't move.

"Nothing. You just stepped on a mine, an anti-personnel landmine. Don't worry, this is just an old-fashioned tension-release landmine."

Su Xiao squatted in front of Ma Fatty, recalling the way to disarm this landmine in his mind. This thing didn't have much power, but disarming it was very troublesome.

"F-f-f-f-f-uck."

Ma Fatty's legs began to tremble, and in his heart, it felt like ten thousand grass mud horses were galloping past. He highly suspected that he was watching a movie. Who would bury a landmine in their own backyard? Did they think this was wartime?

However, what Ma Fatty didn't know was that Su Xiao was a Hunter. Once his identity was exposed, he might be hunted by others. Burying a landmine in the backyard was a small matter for a Qiyuezhe. ===== CHAPTER 855 =====
