Li Chen smiled and said, "Indeed, it's been a long time."
Although they were teammates in the academy, they have had very little contact with each other since they came here.
Perhaps once we return to the academy, our relationship will grow increasingly distant.
But for now, they are all students in the same class.
At this moment, Su Zhe interrupted their reminiscing and spoke up.
"Lin-jie, is there only one party tonight?"
"They probably won't go to the Slaughter Arena again."
Luo Lin shook her head; she didn't know either.
However, based on their understanding of Yu Qingnian, there might be other special things happening at the so-called party.
However, this might not be a good thing for their students.
Beep beep~
A phone rang, and Li Chen's Student Badge lit up in his pocket.
The voice of Gu Cheng came from the other end.
"Young Master Chen, are you leaving tomorrow?"
"Okay, I'll leave tomorrow."
"Hey... why don't you just stay?"
A black line appeared on Li Chen's forehead. Sure enough, Gu Cheng had called him; that was exactly what had happened.
Every time he went to the lab, he would mention that he should stay.
In truth, whether it's the Ruined Pass or the Ruined City, staying here wouldn't make much difference to Li Chen. But if he really stayed, wouldn't he just become a heartless working machine?
"Let's forget about it."
"I don't want to be looking at Eerie Monsters every day."
"Besides, I still have studies to complete when I return to the mainland."
Suddenly, a mocking voice came from the Gu Cheng on the other side.
"You still have your studies to attend to. I'll pass on a message to Dean Canglan right now, and you'll be able to get your graduation certificate immediately."
Li Chen twitched his lips and said, "Pass Master it."
"I have prepared Dark Matter for you."
"They're all at my place now; you can go get them when the time comes."
A serious voice suddenly came from the other end.
"Good, as expected of the person I chose."
"Then thank you for contributing your precious wealth to the Human Race."
Li Chen looked at the city wall at the pass and smiled, "It's nothing, just remember that I still have one condition to fulfill."
I might come back here again in the future.
On the other end, Gu Cheng had already begun operating the robot with his fingers to transport Dark Matter to Li Chen's house. Hearing Li Chen's words, he smiled helplessly.
"You little brat."
"Since you're leaving tomorrow, I don't have any good gifts to give you."
"Look at the sky."
Suddenly, a mechanical crack appeared in the wall of the gate, and a beam of black light shot out.
Empty~
A sound of something cutting through the air rang out.
Li Chen's eyes narrowed, and he spoke to Su Zhe and the others beside him.
"Back off."
Su Zhe was a little confused. At this moment, Jianping pulled out the box and hit him on the buttocks.
"Ah, Brother Ping!!"
A glint of light flashed in Jianping's eyes. He quickly pulled back his collar and retreated with Su Zhe. Seeing this, Luo Lin also retreated at Telekinesis.
With a loud "bang," a solid impact sound rang out.
Black shockwaves crashed against the Ruined City floor like waves.
Li Chen's lips curled slightly as he looked at the black blade embedded in the ground, emitting a faint black halo and surrounded by wisps of black energy, and murmured...
"That was quite a pleasant surprise."
Even Li Chen hadn't expected that Gu Cheng would give him a Demon Blade.
Moreover, he knew that this Demon Blade was called the Dark Demon Blade by Gu Cheng because it was a Demon Blade that he and Li Chen had been experimenting with and modifying over the past two weeks.
Although it's still in the testing phase, Gu Cheng actually gave it to him directly. Obviously, this was both a farewell gift for Li Chen and a way to see what kind of amazing effects this Demon Blade would have in Li Chen's hands.
Because every type of Demon Blade in this world has side effects, but the source of these side effects is Forbidden Substances. Now that Li Chen has mastered Forbidden Substances, this Demon Blade may be able to achieve its greatest effect in his hands.
Li Chen shook his head and pulled out the Demon Blade.
In fact, he possessed a weapon called "Ink," but he could not use it, as it was born from Forbidden Substance.
It's unclear what effect it would have on humans.
After he returns to the mainland, he will only fight with those trainees. If anything happens then, he will still have to take responsibility.
However, the Demon Blade he now possesses can also become his weapon.
If others knew his thoughts, they would probably be furious; even the Demon Blade wouldn't be worthy of being his weapon.
Seemingly sensing Li Chen's aura, the black aura surrounding the Demon Blade immediately softened, almost becoming intimate.
Seeing this, Su Zhe and the others also came over.
Su Zhe's small eyes darted left and right, almost as if he were sticking his head up to the Demon Blade.
He exclaimed in surprise, "Wow, Chen-ge, this knife looks like the one Brother Ping has in his case!"
At this moment, Jianping also drew the Demon Blade from the box and compared it with Li Chen's.
It does look very similar, but not entirely.
One is black, the other is red; they have completely different vibes.
Even the voice that had been lingering in Jianping's mind seemed somewhat surprised.
"Xiaopingping, Demon Blade!!"
"I didn't expect Little Chenchen to also obtain a Demon Blade! His Demon Blade is no worse than mine!!"
Jianping didn't pay any attention, but looked at the black Demon Blade with some curiosity.
He knew that the Demon Blade was not an easy weapon to obtain; what he had just witnessed was clearly a gift from someone in the Ruined City to Li Chen.
Although Luo Lin didn't know exactly what kind of weapon it was, she could tell from the aura it exuded that it was far superior to weapons like those crafted by Su Zhe.
Li Chen gripped the Demon Blade in his hand, looked at the surprised expressions on everyone's faces, and smiled, "A friend gave it to me."
"Let's go, the party's about to start."
Jianping didn't ask any further questions. He was only somewhat interested in each good weapon, but he didn't think much of it, let alone have any intention of snatching it.
After all, he already had a weapon; he was just a little curious.
As for Su Zhe, he only had a deep affection for his little hammer.
The Demon Blade? In his eyes, it was just a meat cleaver; a sledgehammer was the true romance of men.
Walking on the road, Li Chen finally felt the discomfort of having a knife in his hand with nowhere to put it.
No wonder Jianping carries a box with him every day.
However, he could sense that the Forbidden Substance incorporated into the Demon Blade seemed to be subtly wriggling.
After all, this Demon Blade was only recently created, and he was the one who injected the Forbidden Substance into it.
Li Chen looked at his right hand, and a bold idea suddenly popped into his mind.
He was able to ingest Forbidden Substances.
What if it's a weapon incorporating Forbidden Substances?
With this thought in mind, Li Chen and his companions slowly made their way to the Ruined Square.
Many tents have now been set up in the square, and tables under the tents are almost all filled with delicious food.
In the center of the square stands a newly erected steel arena.
