Contracting the Mirage Rats, Part 1
"???"
"The Peerless Grace Xu Fenghua? The only daughter of General Xu Zhenjiang?"
Upon hearing his cousin's words, Cao Fengqi looked surprised and couldn't help but ask, "Is he that amazing?"
"Brother Fengqi, this is beyond just 'amazing'."
"You need to understand that the Tianbei Base City Law Enforcement Bureau is in charge of the security of the entire Seventh Sanctuary, which covers 50 million people. The deputy director of the Law Enforcement Bureau is the second-in-command, with immense power."
"As for General Xu Zhenjiang, needless to say, he is one of the top decision-makers in our Tianbei Base City, a mysterious extraordinary Moonlight Knight Sequence, and one of the recognized top experts in Tianbei Base City."
Cao Fengzhi's face still showed excitement when he talked about them.
"That strong?"
Cao Fengqi pursed his lips, suddenly feeling that he had been somewhat taken advantage of.
When he rescued Xu Fenghua from the Ruin Demon of the Ruins Nightmare Realm, he only received a Level 7 World Medal and some medicinal resources.
A noblewoman like her wouldn't be content with such meager resources.
"If only I could get on this guy's good side..."
Cao Fengqi muttered to himself, "Then wouldn't I be able to do whatever I want in Tianbei Base City? After all, I'm her savior..."
"Big brother, does she have a boyfriend?"
He looked at Cao Fengzhi and asked curiously.
"Of course not, we've never even talked about it. The more outstanding a woman is, the higher her standards are. There are only a handful of men in the entire Tianbei Base City who are worthy of Deputy Director Xu."
Cao Fengzhi shook his head upon hearing his question, "Besides, this Deputy Director Xu has a rather cold personality, isn't he..."
As he was talking, he looked at him and suddenly exclaimed, "Holy crap, bro, you don't actually have a crush on this guy, do you?"
"I know you're pretty awesome too, but let's forget about this. We don't even have a chance to get close to her, let alone reach her."
"..."
Cao Fengqi was speechless upon hearing his words.
You think I'm a simp like you?!
Licking? Forget about it, just do it if you like!
Even with Xu Fenghua, it's not like I haven't tried it before...
Speaking of which...
The image of Xu Fenghua's body flashed through his mind; she truly could be described as peerless in Fenghua.
He's almost 1.8 meters tall, with Perfect seven-head-to-body ratio supermodel figure, and most importantly...
He shook the yellow residue from his head, looked through the binoculars again, and found that there was no one left.
"Never mind."
Cao Fengqi stopped thinking about it. Although he had saved her life, this woman was rude and might not only fail to repay his kindness but also stab him with her sword.
Cough cough!
He took out the Spark Guild's communicator and listed his unwanted equipment on the trading platform.
He then took out the repairable level 7 Blood Pact Hunter's exclusive dual swords.
"Brother, could you please take me to a forge? I need to repair a weapon."
"Okay, sure!"
Cao Fengzhi immediately nodded in agreement.
Since his parents were shopping with the Cao Family, he wasn't in a hurry to go home.
Cao Fengqi spent the rest of the day at the Transcendent Arsenal.
The items he traded were all popular weapons and equipment, and his prices were also low compared to the market average.
In the afternoon, after Cao Fengqi and his group returned, all the items had been traded.
"I sold all the weapons and equipment, including the World Medal, for a total of 64 level 6 souls. Repairing the dual swords consumed 3 level 6 souls, so I currently have a total of 68 level 6 souls. I'll keep 8 level 6 souls for later use, and use the rest to increase the Spirit Tamer's experience and upgrade the Beast Shepherd class to the Third Sequence as soon as possible."
Back in his room, Cao Fengqi pondered.
Because he needed to deal with the upcoming Mirage Rat, he had to pause the increase of his Mystic Artificer experience points.
Cao Fengqi took out a soul and quickly absorbed it.
[Cao Fengqi.]
[Transcendent Sequence: Artifact Refiner Sequence, Beast Shepherd Sequence] (Open to view details)
[Constitution: 707]
[Mental Strength: 419]
[Rank Sequence: Mystic Artificer (35%) Spirit Tamer (60%)]
Time passed slowly, and when the last soul was absorbed, he looked at his physique and spiritual power, a satisfied smile appearing on his face.
"A constitution of 707 is definitely top-tier for a combat class. Mental strength also exceeds 400, and with the 30 boost from the Soul Dream Necklace, it reaches 449. That's enough to go and meet those Mirage Rat in the Mirage."
Everything is ready.
Cao Fengqi did not hesitate. With a thought, the scene before him changed.
"..."
"Damn, still have a long way to go. Hopefully, we won't run into those guys from Dragon Head Mountain."
Cao Fengqi looked at his current location and couldn't help but mutter to himself.
He took out his level 7 wheelchair, sat in it, and headed towards the Fate Witch Grand Church.
[Scanned within a 3km radius, 44 new Tier 1 supplies... 33 Tier 5 supplies, 14 Tier 6 supplies, 4 Tier 7 supplies (177 Tier 7 bullets), and 1 Tier 8 supply.]
"It went fairly smoothly!"
When the external scanner detected the signal, Cao Fengqi returned to the left side of the Fate Witch Grand Church, the spot where he had last fought the Mirage Rat.
He gazed at the Mirage ahead, his eyes flickering slightly.
"The official information is very detailed, and combined with my previous investigation, there shouldn't be any major problems."
With a flick of his right hand, the Flame Wing Feather Sword appeared in his grasp.
"Roar!" "Caw caw! Caw caw!"
The Xiaotian Dog, Nightmare, and his entourage also appeared in the sky and beside them.
Without the slightest hesitation, Cao Fengqi strode inside.
200 meters...100 meters...50 meters...
"Buzz!"
The moment he entered the Mirage, it was completely silent.
"These guys are pretty cunning; they didn't attack immediately. Are they trying to trigger a trap?"
"Moreover, even with the naked eye, I still can't tell which 'guard' belongs to the Mirage Rat..."
Cao Fengqi scanned his surroundings, a cold expression gradually appearing on his face.
He raised his right hand without the slightest hesitation.
"Da da da!" "Da da da!"
Bullets swept wildly towards the red alert zones.
"Zhizhi, squeak, Zhizhi."
At such close range, an unlucky Mirage Rat was caught off guard and struck directly, letting out a roar of alarm and anger.
At that moment, all seven Mirage Rat within the entire Mirage came to life.
One by one, green Plague Rat attacked them from all directions.
"Heh heh, now that they're out, kill them!"
Once Cao Fengqi had pinpointed the location of the seven Mirage Rat, he laughed loudly and gave orders to the Xiaotian Dog and the others.
With a flick of his wrist, the longsword in his hand ignited, Emberfire covered the Flame Wing Feather Sword, causing it to blaze even brighter.
At the same time, the 10-stage Five Elements Spirit-Attracting Sword Art, Fire Element: Emberflame Burns the Heavens, was unleashed.
"Boom!"
He slashed horizontally, unleashing a wave of fire seven or eight meters high that surged forward.
Those phantom images of Plague Rat melted instantly under the waves of fire!
"Hmm? My attack... is so powerful!"
Cao Fengqi was using the Five Elements Spirit-Attracting Sword Art for the first time, and he never expected the burst of power to be so terrifying.
His eyes slowly brightened; the Emberflame Burns the Heavens was just the most ordinary move in swordsmanship.
If I were to unleash my strongest moves from the Five Elements' generating and restraining relationships, it would be even more terrifying!
