Chapter 277

Shen Xing was speechless, thinking to himself that this guy was really embarrassing him.

Before long, Xu Jiayi also arrived at the lotus leaf.

When Shen Xing saw her outfit in the game, his eyes lit up.

A short nun's uniform with a black background and gold trim hugged her slender figure, revealing her fair, bare shoulders.

A thin Black Gold belt cinched her waist, tightly binding her slender figure and making her appear even more capable.

Beneath her short skirt, a pair of black over-the-knee stockings clung tightly to her slender legs, and she wore tall riding boots, exuding an aura of asceticism and mystery.

With the cross she carries on her back, she resembles a battle-hardened nun emerging from the depths of a church.

Shen Xing and Qin Lang were both stunned.

"This... this is Xu Jiayi?" Qin Lang rubbed his eyes, looking incredulous.

Shen Xing couldn't help but glance at the black stockings a couple more times.

Her appearance here is not only completely different from her real-life appearance, but she's also practically a different person.

Under their watchful eyes, the battle nun walked gracefully towards them.

Beside her followed two familiar figures.

They are, respectively, human archers with long ponytails and wearing leather armor: the Bayonetta.

There was also a stone figure that stood seven meters tall, with a pale golden hue: Xiao Xiao.

She approached the two men, and seeing their surprised expressions, a blush rose on her pretty face.

"Why... why are you all looking at me like that?" Xu Jiayi turned her head away, somewhat embarrassed.

"Uh... it's nothing." Shen Xing also came to her senses. "It's just that your outfit is quite unique."

"Actually, I didn't really want to dress like this either." Xu Jiayi tugged at her skirt a little awkwardly, "It's just that the church stipulates that all nuns must wear the same attire."

"The church?" Shen Xing narrowed his eyes immediately. "What church rule requires wearing black stockings and short skirts... Wait, what organization have you joined?"

"I'm not quite sure either..." Xu Jiayi said uncertainly, "I only know it's called the 'Condemnation Nun Order,' and there are many nuns like me in it, and they are all women."

Shen Xing seemed to be deep in thought; he had never heard of this name before.

That's quite normal, though, Land of Mist are vast and boundless, dotted with all sorts of forces, Xiao Xiao.

The Skinners and Blood Origin Cult they encountered earlier were among them.

"The Condemnation Nun Order, that name sounds so sinister!" Qin Lang asked, his eyes wide. "You haven't joined some cult, have you?"

"You're the one who joined a cult." Xu Jiayi rolled her eyes at him. "This Sisters' Order is a legitimate force of light, filled with just and kind nuns who protect humanity."

"Before joining, I looked up information about this faction on the forum. It's said that they broke away from the 'Holy See' and have existed for thousands of years."

"However, because the conditions for joining this organization are quite strict, the number of members has always been small, so it is not well known to outsiders and is a rather niche organization."

"But the Sisters' Order is very powerful; even a random novice nun within it possesses combat strength of at least the Tier Three."

Shen Xing asked, "How did you end up joining them?"

Upon hearing this question, Xu Jiayi paused for a moment, then said with some emotion, "It was also a coincidence."

"Simply put, when I was exploring the Land of Mist a while ago, I discovered a village that had been overrun by demons."

"The villagers there have all been controlled by demons, and they perform inhumane rituals every day for the demons' amusement."

"I led my troops there to clear out the village, and we cleaned it up completely."

"Just as things were about to wrap up, that demon jumped out. It was incredibly powerful, probably at least at the Tier Three."

"Just as I was preparing to sacrifice myself to cover Xiao Xiao retreat, a very powerful nun arrived from outside the village."

"She completely Purification the demon with just a few attacks."

"The nun observed me for a while and said I was qualified to become a 'Sister of Condemnation,' and she said a lot of other nonsensical things."

"Finally, they asked if I wanted to join the nuns, and I agreed. Then I changed my class to the hidden class 'Sister of Condemnation'."

She finished speaking in one breath and glanced at the two of them.

In fact, there were some details she didn't mention.

For example, the nun warned that the power within her was dangerous and could one day lead to very serious consequences.

Shen Xing and Qin Lang remained silent for a moment, seemingly processing her message.

The Land of Mist, a mysterious and ancient world, has existed for countless millennia, burying countless Civilization and histories.

This contains both great dangers and opportunities.

In this world, everyone has the potential to seize their own opportunities and forge their own unique path.

Just like Shen Xing absorbed the essence of the Black Dragon Lord and the Blue Dragon Lord, awakening as the hidden class Dragon Lord.

It's not too surprising that Xu Jiayi has now become the hidden profession 'Sister of Condemnation'.

"As long as you're sure it's not some cult and poses no threat to you, it's fine."

Shen Xing didn't press further, his gaze falling on the boulder beside her. "You stone person, you seem to have changed quite a bit."

A smile appeared on Xu Jiayi's face, "It's all thanks to the [Heart of Gold and Stone] you gave me last time."

"After I fused with Xiao Xiao, not only did its physique greatly improve and it awaken several powerful skills, but it also broke through to the Tier Three in one fell swoop."

"Xiao Xiao is very powerful now; she can easily withstand attacks from even Leader Rank creatures."

When the stone golem heard the lord praise it, a pale golden light shone in its pupils, and it seemed very happy.

Qin Lang stopped asking about the hidden profession, "Now that everyone's here, let's get started and get going."

"Three minutes have passed; we won't be able to catch those freaks soon enough."

Xu Jiayi nodded, preparing to take action.

At this moment, Shen Xing shook his head. "Wait a minute, I still have a friend who hasn't arrived yet."

"Friend..."

Qin Lang was stunned for a moment, then asked incredulously, "You've made new friends behind our backs again!?"

Xu Jiayi also looked at him with a puzzled expression.

Before I could ask any further questions, a graceful figure leaped lightly from a lotus leaf not far away.

She wore a long white dress, her figure was light and graceful, and her long black hair was simply tied up.

A faint smile graced her exquisite face; though her eyes were closed, her ethereal and otherworldly aura was still undeniable.

Surrounded by four shimmering Light Spirit, she appeared as if she were a fairy descended to earth.

"Wow... is this some kind of fairy descended from heaven?" Qin Lang's eyes widened.

Xu Jiayi was even more surprised, staring blankly at that stunningly beautiful figure.

For no apparent reason, she felt somewhat ashamed of herself in front of this woman.

Her white dress fluttered, so pure and ethereal, like a fairy stepping out of a painting.

His unusual attire made him look like he had escaped from some cult stronghold.

"Shen Xing, I've arrived!"

Xia Wanyin kept her eyes closed, waved to him from afar, and then walked quickly over.

As she approached, she suddenly stopped, as if she too had sensed the presence of a stranger.

But after only a moment's hesitation, she continued walking and came to Shen Xing's side.

However, he still seemed a little reserved, with his head slightly lowered.

Qin Lang and Xu Jiayi were also a little embarrassed, remaining silent and unsure of what to say.

The atmosphere became somewhat awkward for a moment.

Shen Xing chuckled as he observed the three's reactions. "Wanyin, let me introduce you."

"These two are my classmates and best friends, Qin Lang and Xu Jiayi."

He then looked at the two people beside him and said, "This is Xia Wanyin, whose territory is near mine. She helped me a lot in the Land of Mist."

Upon hearing this, the three nodded in understanding.

"Hello, Qin Lang, Jiayi." Xia Wanyin greeted them proactively with a gentle smile on her face.

"Y-you... hello..." Qin Lang scratched his head and replied apologetically.

Xu Jiayi simply hummed in agreement.

"Alright," Shen Xing said again, "Let's get started. We've already wasted a few minutes."

Although everyone is still getting to know each other and the atmosphere remains awkward, now is not the time to worry about that.

The most urgent task is to eliminate more 'Water Spirit' and obtain more points.

"Let me explain the force allocation plan," Shen Xing said quickly. "Next, I'll give Hellscream to Qin Lang. You all will coordinate with the higher-ups."

"As for Jiayi, I'll give you a Tier Three Assassin. Together with your Bayonetta and Xiao Xiao, dealing with the Water Elemental Boss won't be a problem."

"Wanyin, you'll come with me. We'll take turns fighting monsters, one each."

Qin Lang and Xu Jiayi exchanged a glance, knowing that Shen Xing was doing her best to take care of them, and were deeply moved.

But they definitely won't accept this proposal.

Qin Lang shook his head and said, "That won't work. If you give all the high-end combat power to us, our combat efficiency will definitely drop significantly, and we simply can't compete with those monsters."

"And we also have to take turns grinding monsters with this girl, Wanyin. At this rate, it's questionable whether we can even make it into the top ten."

He paused for a moment, then said directly, "How about this, I'll carry Hellscream through the mobs, and he'll get all the kills. That way, the points will go to you."

"Anyway, just getting into the third level is already a huge win."

Xu Jiayi nodded in agreement. "I also agree with this plan. If necessary, I'll give you all the kills to guarantee you a place in the top ten."

Shen Xing knew what they were thinking, but he had his own plans and was just about to explain.

Just then, the girl in the white dress spoke softly, "No need for all that trouble, let's just fight monsters together."

"I can quickly lead you to the Boss's location; even if all four of you take turns, we can still easily get into the top ten."

Xu Jiayi and Qin Lang exchanged glances, both seeing the confusion in each other's eyes.

Shen Xing, realizing something, asked incredulously, "Your special ability... it works here too?"

"Uh-huh!"

Xia Wanyin nodded gently, then whispered, "I can sense the location of all 'Water Spirit' within a 5-kilometer radius."

Upon hearing this, Xu and Qin were shocked and found it utterly unbelievable!

What does it mean to be able to sense the location of all 'Water Spirit' within a 5-kilometer radius?

Do you know how difficult it is for us to find a Water Spirit!?

Shen Xing was already used to her abilities and tentatively asked, "Then... how many 'Water Spirit' are there around here?"
