Volume 2 Ghost Army Chapter 266: Glimpse into the Soul
The unexpected message sent by Brother Doug ruined Li Jiu's plan.
Looking at Kaqi who was sitting next to him and deliberately keeping a certain distance from him, Li Jiu knew that the atmosphere was no longer there and it seemed that he would not get what he wanted today.
"Since you still have something to do, I'll leave first..." After Li Jiu finished reading the message, Kaqi suddenly stood up and said.
"Well... okay then." Li Jiu knew that he could no longer go on, so he said with a little disappointment.
However, when Li Jiu was about to send Ka Qi out the door, she suddenly stopped, turned her head and looked at Li Jiu and said, "By the way, there is only one week left for the district-level auditions. The team leader said that in order for us to concentrate on the auditions, we will not be assigned combat missions during this period. So, I want to use these seven days to prepare well and gather everyone together for training. You will be in charge of the command. What do you think?"
Kaqi knew very well that the strength of the Night Rose Mercenary Group was only average in the Fifth District. Especially the newly rising Fifth Team, except for Li Jiu, the overall strength of the other members was far behind that of the ace teams in other mercenary groups.
Therefore, in order to ensure that the Fifth Team can win the district-level auditions, they can only use the time before the game to actively prepare for the game and, with the help of Li Jiu's strong command ability, improve the team members' tactical level in a short period of time.
"Well..." Li Jiu frowned and pondered, thinking secretly in his heart. He knew Kaqi's thoughts, and he also knew that compared with the ace teams in other mercenary groups, the other members of the fifth team had a big gap in combat experience and personal physical fitness. These were the disadvantages of the fifth team in future competitions.
However, in Li Jiu's opinion, this disadvantage is not enough to affect the Fifth Team's chances of winning the district-level auditions!
Because, with my joining, the team members basically don’t have to worry about the problem of lack of combat experience... As long as they fight according to my command, there will be no big problem. At most, they may be weaker than the top teams in the fifth district in terms of physical fitness.
In addition, after the gambling battle with Captain William, Li Jiu can be said to have fought against the strongest mercenary group in the Fifth District. Even the team that Captain William hastily put together may not truly represent the strongest strength of the Blood Wolf Mercenary Group, but it should not be much different.
And through the strength shown by the opponent in that battle, Li Jiu was able to roughly estimate the level of other mercenary groups in the fifth district.
Since Li Jiu was able to defeat Captain William in that gambling battle, he naturally has more confidence in dealing with other weaker mercenary groups.
The only variable that Li Jiu was worried about was the possible appearance of awakened people in other teams!
However, how to deal with the opponent's awakener is obviously something that should be considered by the awakener himself, and other team members do not need to worry about it.
Therefore, taking all factors into consideration, Li Jiu did not think that the players had to do emergency training before the game started.
The most you can do is to practice your shooting skills and get familiar with the competition map during this time.
"I think we should not have concentrated training for the time being." After thinking for a moment, Li Jiu shook his head, "After you go back, let Bakus and the others practice their shooting skills, and at the same time take some time to go to the training space to get familiar with some of the battle maps designated for the competition. Also, let them try to get a set of handy equipment. If anyone is short of money and can't afford to buy equipment, let them come to me."
"Well, okay, I understand." Kaqi nodded, and then asked again: "Are you sure you don't need to concentrate on training?"
"No, at least for now..." Li Jiu shook his head, with a thoughtful look between his brows, and said a little depressedly: "It's mainly because I have an important thing to do before the game starts, and I really can't spare the time to train them... After I finish this matter, if there is still time, let's train together a few more times."
"Is that thing dangerous?" Kaqi frowned slightly. From Li Jiu's serious expression, she could feel that what Li Jiu was talking about was probably not a trivial matter.
"Haha, don't worry, it's okay." Li Jiu smiled indifferently and stroked Kaqi's short black hair.
"Well, just be careful. I'll go first." Kaqi nodded, her eyes full of concern.
Having said that, she turned and left Li Jiu's dormitory.
…
After sending
Before his own ability breaks through to the general level, he will not be able to use these two brothers for the time being, so he can only let them take a paid leave...
Afterwards, Li Jiu smoked another cigarette, calmed down his mind, and then lay down on the sofa and started practicing his supernatural powers...
The first stage of cultivation of "Spiritual Wandering in the Great Void" requires practitioners to focus their minds, empty their thoughts, and enter a state of extinction with no desires or requests.
In this state, the practitioner should not have any thoughts, even subconscious dreams will not emerge.
However, today, when Li Jiu had been practicing from morning until nightfall, he suddenly felt his body shake involuntarily!
Then, he saw a scene before his eyes...
This is a dark world with no visible boundaries and no way to tell up from down or left from right.
In the boundless absolute darkness all around him, he could only see a body emitting a soft white fluorescent light...
The moment he saw this body, he knew that it was his own body.
However, the strange thing was that apart from recognizing that it was his own body, he was unable to think of anything else and could only stare indifferently at the body lying in the endless dark void.
This body has no fur, flesh, or bones, and only the outline of a human figure can be seen.
And in this body outline, the only things that exist are strands of bright white light, like tree roots, spread throughout the limbs and bones of the body.
There were so many white threads of light, of varying thicknesses, that it was impossible to count them at a glance.
However, Li Jiu could see that all those light threads had only one source, which was the center of the head of the body!
It was a fist-sized transparent shield, which contained a spherical ball of light with wrinkles like a jellyfish.
When Li Jiu's eyes fell on this source, he immediately knew that it was his own soul!
