Chapter 17 Preparations Before the Training Camp
When Li Jie raised his arm, the light seemed to take shape.
The sword is three feet and three inches long, with a hilt that is entirely emerald green, like jade, and a blade as thin as a cicada's wing, almost invisible.
He placed the [Han Guang] horizontally, as if wanting to gently stroke the blade, and raised his hand to wipe it away.
In the darkness, the blade of the Han Guang sword, now devoid of light, disappeared into the hilt.
Li Jie stared blankly at the lonely sword hilt in his hand.
The sword, named "Han Guang," is thin and light, and at first glance, it seems impossible to associate it with hardness and sharpness.
Actually, it's exactly the opposite.
The extreme thinness brings endless sharpness.
The blade, which disappears without a trace, is even harder to break than the hardest steel.
In other words, wherever there is light, Li Jie's [Han Guang] will be an incomparably sharp weapon for killing enemies.
He stood up, walked out of the meditation room, and went to the training ground.
That night, apart from the unfortunate Old Zhao who was on duty, the rest of the team had already returned home and were fast asleep.
In other words, the huge training ground is now occupied only by Li Jie.
He walked up to the wooden stake and gently grasped the emerald green hilt of the sword.
After the searchlight flashed, a faint, sharp aura permeated the air.
As true energy surged, a pale blue sword intent enveloped the invisible sword body.
Clang! !
[Han Guang] accompanied by the surge of Li Jie's sword intent, a series of sword cries were emitted.
call.....
He raised his arm and slowly exhaled a breath of stale air, causing the cyan sword light to intensify.
The hand falls, the sword is drawn!
An extremely sharp cyan sword aura burst forth from [Han Guang].
A cold light flashed.
A crack, as smooth as a mirror, suddenly appeared in the middle of the wooden stake in front of Li Jie.
*Thud...*
The broken wooden stake gradually slid to the ground.
Li Jie stepped forward to examine it and saw that even at the broken point, tiny fragments of sword light were still slowly surging.
If Li Jie's previous display of the "Two Green Snakes in the Sleeves" was magnificent and powerful...
So when he used [Han Guang] to unleash that sword strike, he was calm and composed, his sword energy contained but not released, and his killing intent was invisible and traceless.
Li Jie looked at the invisible sword in his hand in surprise. It seemed that the sword, now imbued with Han Guang, had given him an invisible protection.
It can contain its own energy, which is a truly unexpected and delightful surprise.
Who would have thought that an ordinary-looking boy could unleash unparalleled destructive power in an instant? This is also a means he can use to hide in the future.
It's just a pity about the [Azure Heart], because the system's deduction caused a critical hit. While he obtained [Han Guang], he also sacrificed the rhombus-shaped gem that the captain had worked so hard to 'beg' for.
Withdrawing his sword intent, Li Jie put away the emerald green hilt and turned to leave.
What he didn't know was that the wall behind the training ground was also cleaved open by Han Guang's sword energy.
Fortunately, the underground space of Squad 136 was built by a powerful individual with high-level earth-type forbidden realm abilities; otherwise, this sword strike might have actually collapsed the training ground.
Li Jie did not return to the villa tonight.
Instead, they spent the night lounging on the sofa at the squad's base.
The next morning.
Li Jie woke up from his sleep, washed up, and then pushed open the door of the Peace Agency.
The sun was shining brightly today, and even the gentle breeze carried a hint of sweetness.
An hour later.
In the martial arts arena.
Having just finished his swordsmanship training, Lin Qiye came to the steps at the edge of the field and sat down next to Li Jie.
"Li Jie, let me ask you a question. If someone treats everything around them as their own child, what would be the reason?"
Upon hearing Lin Qiye's question, Li Jie pretended to think and pondered.
Although he knew that Lin Qiye asked this question in order to find a way to improve the treatment progress of the Dark Goddess Nyx in the hospital.
However, he couldn't say it directly, so he could only give a roundabout hint.
"I don't know, I don't have children..."
Upon hearing Li Jie's answer, Lin Qiye rolled his eyes. "I shouldn't have asked him that."
Li Jie looked at the silent Lin Qiye and continued speaking.
"Maybe his child was kidnapped by human traffickers? I remember reading in the news that a single mother in a mountain village lost her child and became mentally unstable. She always treated the blanket her child had used as her child and wouldn't let go of it."
"You don't think there's any possibility like what I'm describing?"
"If that's really the case, then this person is in a really bad situation."
Generally speaking, people who suffer mental breakdowns due to losing their children usually lack companionship.
If all else fails, we can find him a caregiver to act as his child; at least there's hope for recovery.
Ok?
That's more like it!
Hearing Li Jie's words, Lin Qiye suddenly understood.
"Thank you, Li Jie, I understand."
"But why didn't I see the captain sparring with you today?"
Hearing Lin Qiye's question, Li Jie was also puzzled as to why he hadn't seen his captain today.
Are you still sulking because of what happened yesterday?
"Perhaps he's in a bad mood today."
The person being cricketed by the two was standing on the outer edge of the training ground wall, deep in thought as he looked at the horizontally broken sewer.
I don't recall anyone mysteriously venturing into the sewers around the base...
How did it break?
..........
Before they knew it, the night watchman recruit training camp would begin in just one more day.
During this period, Li Jie also successfully broke through to the second level of the [Great Yellow Court], taking another step closer to creating the 'Diamond Sword Bone'.
The true energy within his dantian grew increasingly abundant. If it was a mere sip at the first level, it was now a vast pool.
He roughly estimated that his current realm was at the early stage of the 'Pool' realm.
When the intensive training begins, with that kind of high-intensity training, I might be able to forge my own 'indestructible bones' by the time I graduate.
By then, with the [Han Guang] in his hand, he should be able to contend with experts at the 'Chuan' realm, or even higher levels.
While I might not be able to win a fight, I can definitely run away.
It's the same old routine.
Li Jie sat on the side of the training field, staring blankly at Zhao Kongcheng and Lin Qiye fighting in the field.
You know what, Lin Qiye has improved quite a bit. Although he can't beat Lao Zhao, he can at least hold his own for several moves.
As the two sides separated.
Old Zhao also spoke up.
"Alright, brat, no more practice today. I'll have Hongying take you guys to buy some things later. We're leaving tomorrow."
Lin Qiye wiped the sweat from his brow and glanced subtly at Li Jie sitting on the sidelines.
I don't know what happened.
The captain stopped teaching Li Jie anything three days ago.
He was simply allowed to sit on the sidelines and watch him train.
Is it because they've been mysteriously appearing again recently?
Unfortunately, Lin Qiye guessed wrong.
There was only one reason why Chen Muyi stopped sparring: he was afraid of crashing.
Ever since he saw the broken drainpipe that day, he had a premonition that Li Jie might have caused the commotion.
Later, he carefully examined the wall at the very back of the training ground and discovered a nearly invisible crack in the middle.
So much so that in the days that followed, when he got really worked up during a fight with Li Jie, Li Jie pulled out something that looked like jade from his waist.
When he swung the jade at him, he was hit again!
This time the injury was more serious than the last one.
That's absolutely outrageous.
Therefore, Chen Muye gradually reduced the intensity of Li Jie's training, only letting him observe Lin Qiye's training, without giving him any other instructions.
When Si Xiaonan, who was treating Chen Muye's injuries, learned that the wound had been caused by Li Jie again, she spread the news to all the other members except Li Jie and Lin Qiye.
Now, almost everyone avoids Li Jie, fearing that he will drag them into sparring.
They weren't afraid of death, they were just dying in a rather pathetic way.
