Chapter 6 plus points!
"Sigh, what a wasted trip! Someone beat me to it!"
"Senior brother, you really are something! You didn't even know the way, making us waste so much time!"
"How can you blame me? I was too busy running away to even remember the location!"
"Go back and train hard. If you still can't pass the Black Iron Trial, then you can stop following me."
Don't tell anyone that you are Wei Dongming's apprentice.
I can't bear the shame!
......
Outside the MG-S-3 outpost.
Wei Dongming led three young men toward the outpost.
The young man who was being lectured walked with a limp and looked aggrieved upon hearing this:
"Master, you saw it too."
There is indeed a shark tooth vine there.
I didn't lie to you!
"What's the point of saying all this!"
Wei Dongming turned his head and glared at him, saying with disapproval:
"You've been with me for almost five years, and you still haven't mastered the Sky-Piercing Slash!"
You're the worst apprentice I've ever trained!
These words dealt a heavy blow to the lame young man.
He trailed behind the three men, dejected, and walked toward the outpost.
"Who did I bump into today?"
Upon arriving at the guardhouse, Wei Dongming turned to look at the other two young men.
The lame young man hesitated to speak upon seeing this.
He wanted to say that his leg injury hadn't healed yet.
She wanted Wei Dongming to take her to the outpost to rest.
However, they dared not offend Wei Dongming and could only swallow their anger.
Soon, Wei Dongming selected someone to accompany him into the outpost.
As for the other two, they had no choice but to spend the night outside the outpost, just like the other scavengers.
......
"Old Song, how long are you going to stay here?"
"It'll take a few more days... Are the materials available for sale?"
"Sell! Of course we'll sell! We'll definitely boost your sales figures!"
"hehe......"
Inside the guardhouse.
While undergoing the inspection, Wei Dongming chatted familiarly with the garrison squad leader.
The garrison soldiers stationed at the outpost are rotated every so often.
Because most of them are ordinary people, they cannot stay in the wasteland for too long.
However, Wei Dongming has been a Black Iron Witcher for over ten years.
He was very familiar with Mugu City and the surrounding area.
I also had a lot of dealings with the garrison soldiers at various outposts.
For example, he had met this team leader surnamed Song quite a few times...
After the guards finished their inspection, Wei Dongming took out cigarettes and gave one to each of them.
The six men were smoking and chatting in the guard room.
At that moment, Wei Dongming, whose attention had been focused on Team Leader Song, noticed something.
As they watched the other person put their catch into the freezer.
In the adjacent refrigerated display case, the sections of shark tooth vine are particularly eye-catching.
"Hey, isn't that a shark tooth vine?"
Wei Dongming said with envy:
"Who's so lucky to have run into something like this!"
In his mind, Wei Dongming had already connected many possibilities.
After closing the refrigerator, Team Leader Song casually remarked:
"A young man."
Upon hearing this, Wei Dongming showed no change in expression.
They continued chatting and laughing.
Before leaving, he dispersed a puff of smoke before heading to his room.
Who could it be?
Upon arriving at the residential area, Wei Dongming's gaze swept over the rooms that resembled coffins.
Only when his gaze met Shi Lan's did he shift his attention, revealing a look of surprise...
-----------------
The room was cramped and damp, with a musty smell.
The kerosene lamp hanging on the wall emitted a pungent and strong smell, and was the only light source in the room.
Shen Mo sat on the edge of the bed, with "The Demon Hunter's Handbook" in front of him.
He currently has 3 points of physical enhancement, 3 points of skill enhancement, and 1 point of combat skill enhancement, but they are useless.
Keeping 1 enhancement point in reserve, Shen Mo began to strengthen his abilities.
"Give me some points in 'The Demon Hunter's Handbook'!"
A thought crossed my mind.
A surge of energy flowed into Shen Mo's body.
His physical condition improved to 12 points.
He's grown taller, probably around 1.83 meters.
His muscles became more defined, and he seemed to possess inexhaustible strength.
Even magic power has increased.
Originally, Shen Mo could only use five consecutive Charged Arrows or Sky-Piercing Slashes.
It can now be used approximately seven times consecutively.
His innate ability to enhance his five senses has also been strengthened, though not by a large margin...
As for the 2 skill enhancements, Shen Mo used them to improve his swordsmanship.
【Swordsmanship LV3 (Beginner)】
A wealth of knowledge about swordsmanship flooded my mind.
Shen Mo has a deeper understanding of knives.
Although still at the beginner level, things are not the same as before.
Shen Mo's reason for strengthening his swordsmanship was to enhance his close-combat capabilities.
The attack by the shark tooth vine today served as a reminder to Shen Mo.
His extraordinary sensory abilities are not a panacea.
He also needs to have a way to deal with the enemy when they appear...
He rolled up the "Twilight Valley News" he carried with him.
Shen Mo wields his books like knives, moving them swiftly and deliberately within the cramped room.
While adapting to the increased strength after physical enhancement, one can deepen their understanding of the Mind Blade Technique.
Not long after, Shen Mo heard footsteps stop in front of his door.
"That woman!"
From the weight of the footsteps, the direction they came from, the smell, and so on.
Shen Mo already knew who was standing at the door.
This made him wary.
Although Shen Mo could not see the target's attributes and skills.
However, it can respond to a series of actions such as breathing, heartbeat, and gait of the target.
Make a rough assessment of the target's strength.
From their brief encounter, Shen Mo knew that Shi Lan's strength was above his own.
So after being teased, she simply and decisively got away, not wanting to have any conflict with him.
Now that someone was blocking the door, Shen Mo immediately became alert.
He didn't want to be forced into anything...
Just as Shen Mo was lost in thought, a knock on the door and Shi Lan's voice rang out at the same time.
"Handsome!" Shi Lan's hoarse voice held a hint of amusement. "Interested in chatting?"
He remained silent, only taking down the kerosene lamp from the wall.
Once the unusual movement is detected, prepare to smash it away.
"Haha, don't be nervous. I mean no harm, and I'm not here to make you sleepy."
After not hearing a reply for a while, Shi Lan guessed that Shen Mo was wary, and immediately laughed heartily to state her purpose.
"My name is Shi Lan, a Bronze-level Demon Hunter. I'm planning to form a demon-hunting team. Would you be interested in joining?"
"Not interested!"
Shen Mo directly refused.
He doesn't actually resist teaming up with others.
Only Shen Mo can see "The Demon Hunter's Notebook".
Although his strength improved rapidly, it was also gradual and traceable, and could withstand scrutiny...
Shen Mo simply lacked trust in Shi Lan...
Shi Lan had anticipated that Shen Mo would refuse, so she wasn't surprised.
The discipline of a demon hunter squad is far less than that of a hunter group.
Often, these teams are just temporary pairings, lacking trust and understanding between the members.
In addition, there are many lone hunters among the Witchers, especially those who have just obtained their licenses.
However, after going through several demon-hunting missions, most people will choose to team up.
At the very least, they would recruit a few apprentices to help them, just like Wei Dongming did.
Shi Lan felt that Shen Mo's thoughts would definitely change after experiencing several demon-hunting missions.
Inviting them to join later will be much easier.
The most important thing right now is to change the impression I make on the other person...
