Volume 2 Ghost Army Chapter 268 Three Days of Retreat
The price of failure is that the soul will be temporarily weakened for a period of time, but in fact, one's soul will become stronger.
After reaching this conclusion, Li Jiu was not annoyed but happy, because although he failed, he also knew that he had at least reached the edge of the general level. Perhaps next time he would be able to successfully break through the constraints of the transparent shield and successfully advance to the early stage of the general level!
…
Another half an hour later, Li Jiu was finally able to struggle to get up from the sofa, and he immediately crawled to the freezer in the dormitory, and using all his strength, he dug out a bottle of milk, and immediately started drinking it.
Although there were a lot of meat products stored , Li Jiu did not take any, because compared with solid food, this kind of liquid drink is easier to provide energy in a short time.
"Hu...Hu..." After taking many gulps of the milk, Li Jiu leaned weakly against the freezer, gasping for breath. Then he directly drank the entire one-liter bottle of milk into his stomach.
That was not all. After he finished drinking the milk and rested for a while, he felt that he had regained some strength. Then he started to rummage through the freezer, taking out all the edible food inside. Then he devoured it at a speed as fast as a whirlwind...
"Burp!..." After a moment, Li Jiu finished all the dozens of kilograms of food, touched his bulging belly, burped contentedly, and then sat on the sofa to rest.
"Snap!" Li Jiu lit a cigarette, and while taking a break from smoking, he began to think secretly.
During this training, Li Jiu received two pieces of news, one good and one not-so-good...
The good news, of course, is that he has already reached the edge of the general level, and perhaps he will be able to successfully break through soon.
As for the bad news, it was naturally the predicament that he had encountered after failing to reach the general level...
Li Jiu didn't know that he would have to go through several more such trainings before he could break through the transparent shield.
If, in every subsequent practice, such embarrassing situations of being on the verge of despair would occur, it would be too speechless...
"Huh? Got it..." After thinking for a while, Li Jiu's eyes suddenly lit up.
Then, after regaining his strength, he left ...
Not long after, when he came back again, he had more than a dozen packages of different sizes in his hands, which were filled with all kinds of food he bought from the store downstairs, mostly high-energy drinks such as milk, and there was also a long soft straw inside...
However, instead of putting the food in the freezer, he went into the bedroom with everything.
Before that, he activated the God of War system again and sent a message to Kaqi and others, saying that he would be in seclusion for a few days...
…
The sun rises and sets, and time passes quietly. Before I know it, three days have passed.
On this day, the sky was clear and the air was fresh. White clouds were floating in the blue sky.
“Woo!”
At the gate of the Night Rose Mercenary Group's base, there was a sound of breaking wind, and a brand new white hover car quickly flew onto the road outside the base gate and sped towards Xinghai Street.
Inside the car, Li Jiu was sitting in the driver's seat, with a Sabre brand cigarette in his mouth and a faint smile on his face.
Compared with three days ago, Li Jiu was obviously thinner and looked more muscular.
During the three days of closed-door training, although he failed more than ten times and felt extremely exhausted every time, he finally broke through to the early general level!
Now, he had to go to Xinghai Street to recognize the intelligent optical computer again, and then go to find the Doug brothers and assign them tasks...
At the same time, after Li Jiu left the Night Rose Mercenary Group base, the news was quickly passed on to Claude, the leader of the Blood Wolf Mercenary Group, through spies hiding in the dark.
In a conference room at the Blood Wolf Base in the western suburbs of District 5, five or six core members of the Blood Wolf, including Claude and William, were holding an important meeting.
At this time, the person who spoke was the captain Claude who was sitting on the main seat.
However, when he received the news from the secret sentry, he was suddenly stunned.
"Captain, what's wrong?" Captain William was good at observing people's expressions and immediately noticed something was wrong with his father, but in front of outsiders, he could only call Claude "Captain".
"You guys go out first." Claude said indifferently with deep eagle eyes, glancing at the other men.
"Yes, Captain!" Several core members of the Blood Wolf responded at the same time, then stood up and left the meeting room.
"Father, what happened?" Captain William knew something big had happened when he saw Claude sending the others away, so he couldn't help but ask with a chill in his heart.
"Humph!" After his men left, Claude snorted coldly, with a flash of anger in his eyes, "That guy left their base again."
"This..." Captain William was stunned for a moment, frowned slightly, and asked tentatively: "Father, do you want to send someone to assassinate him again?"
"Send more people? Humph, can't you see? Since that guy dares to leave the base so confidently, it is obvious that he no longer takes our Blood Wolf Mercenary Group seriously!" Claude, who has always been very cunning, seems to be really angry today.
Captain William frowned and fell silent.
"Father, it's all the fault of that loser Mad Wolf! If it weren't for his incompetence, that kid wouldn't have dared to look down on us... In fact... I suspect that Mad Wolf was able to come back alive, most likely because he and that kid had colluded! After all, since that kid was able to injure his legs, how could he let him get away?" Captain William had a gloomy face, with a cold look in his eyes. He then looked at Claude, hesitated for a moment, and suggested: "Father, how about... let me lead the people myself? Even if that kid is not afraid of us, it doesn't mean that he really has the strength to fight against us. This time, let me bring the real elites in the group and kill him in one fell swoop!"
"Mad Wolf? Haha, he's not a waste... As for whether they are in collusion or not, I know it in my heart... Mad Wolf is still a substitute player in the auditions after all, he still has some value. However, his value is only limited to the district auditions..." Claude smiled coldly, his eyes gloomy, and then slowly shook his head, "Don't worry about that kid for now, just let him live a few more days. The most important thing for us now is to win the district championship, and before that, the core strength of the group cannot have any accidents. After the auditions are over, I will go to meet him in person..."
Captain William was slightly surprised. He didn't expect that his father was going to take action himself.
And then, he sneered with a smug look on his face: "Hehe, if father is willing to take action personally, even if I give that kid ten lives, it won't be enough for him to die..."
Afterwards, the father and son called back the men who were waiting outside and continued the meeting.
…
On the other side, after arriving at Xinghai Street, he went to Lei Ting Electrical Appliance Store with ease and re-identified the smart optical computer.
Then, after notifying Brother Doug, he immediately drove straight to the residence of the two men.
