Chapter 108: Descendants of the Wasteland Reclaimers

Instantly…

The flowing mud stopped abruptly, and the fluctuating wave-like mud finally maintained its shape, though there would be pieces of mud crumbling occasionally.

Right below the portal was a pit that was maintaining its shape, but its final appearance was rather peculiar.

Since the uppermost layer of mud was blown up first, it continuously surged and recovered when Jiang Xiao made his way up like a pangolin. Hence, the pit at the top was the smallest and would increase in size as it went lower.

Xia Yan and Li Weiyi were beyond flustered and half of their bodies had already been submerged in the mud. Fortunately, the White Ghouls shielded them when the Mud Hands swept across. They watched as the White Ghouls got dragged into the mud, filled with horror that they had gotten sick of.

Hai Tianqing also grabbed the White Ghoul’s body and retreated to a corner in the cave while stepping on the White Ghouls beneath him and pressing himself against the wall. The mud gradually rose up to his ankles, but he could move easily after raising them.

On the Holy Ground, the White Ghouls swarming over were the team’s enemies.

“Have we succeeded?” Xia Yan asked in a surprised and delighted tone.

“Xia Yan, strike,” Li Weiyi said while carrying Black Shield fearfully and standing beside her. His Black Shield was already big enough to cover both of them.

They could hear the sounds of the White Ghouls hitting the shield.

Xia Yan said, “I need a sword.”

Li Weiyi remained silent.

“Give me an opening,” Xia Yan continued while trying hard to pull her leg out of the mud. She clenched her right fist which was covered in flames.

The damage done to Li Weiyi’s shield began to decrease.

It was because Hai Tianqing had already rushed over and they had some assurance temporarily.

The team may not be outstanding enough in terms of melee and probably could not escape the White Ghouls.

The team may not have a strong output Rules Awakened who could turn the situation around.

However, they had a solid defense and wouldn’t die easily. The only thing that would cause them to be defeated and die would be the depletion of time and energy.

In the underground tunnel, Jiang Xiao panted heavily and was drenched in sweat while fighting alongside Second Last…

They opened up a new route because ever since they fell into the tunnel, they knew that it was likely for there to be enemies everywhere.

At the instant that Han Jiangxue landed on the ground, she activated Sky Smasher and watched Second Last fight with a buff and burly man for two whole rounds, producing the sounds of metal clanking.

As a ray of Blessing descended, Second Last took advantage and pushed the man into Sky Smasher while he was feeling dumbfounded and distracted.

Han Jiangxue was shocked to see their cooperation.

Since when has my younger brother developed such strong chemistry with a powerhouse?

From then on, Second Last seemed to have become an unrestrained and untamed stallion. With a strong murderous intent, she dashed in the direction of the tunnel.

“Wait a minute!” Jiang Xiao exclaimed in panic.

Second Last stopped abruptly and turned her head without turning her body. She then stared at Jiang Xiao with bloodshot eyes.

She was spitting out burning air which made it hard for anyone to deduce if she could suppress and control her beastly demeanor.

“Bring them all down. We’ll dash out from this tunnel,” said Jiang Xiao, subconsciously taking a few steps back. No matter what, they still could not get used to Second Last’s beastly gaze that was full of menace.

“You, go,” Second Last said while staring at Han Jiangxue and raising her head.

Han Jiangxue fell silent and immediately flew outwards.

Not long later, numerous figures descended and Jiang Xiao frantically called them, urging forward without explaining anything. He arrived at the back and punched the mud beneath him, causing the tunnel to be filled with mud, preventing further entry for the howling White Ghouls.

The tunnel was about two meters high and wide enough to fit three people standing side by side. Ever since the tunnel was blocked, Second Last’s lava became the only source of light in the tunnel.

“Very good,” Second Last said in a hoarse voice. However, she rarely gave Jiang Xiao any compliments.

Jiang Xiao immediately gave himself a Blessing and said in a different tone, “Tell me their exact location and I’ll take you to look for them.”

Second Last cocked her head towards the side while lava dripped down. After pausing for a few seconds, she strode forward.

“Catch up, hurry. We’ll head there straight away,” Jiang Xiao said frantically while absorbing another Star Bead.

At this moment, he was splurging like a nouveau riche who struck a fortune overnight.

He was absorbing the Star Beads in bunches and not one by one.

He had no choice but to do so because the Gold Quality Star Technique Green Glow was simply depleting too much energy. To Jiang Xiao who was in the Stardust Stage Level 9, his Star Power would be completely depleted by five uses of Green Glow.

While absorbing the Star Beads, Jiang Xiao moved beside Second Last.

At this juncture, the mud had already resumed to normal and was no longer malleable. However, Second Last was well aware of her own abilities. Even though she had strong Star Power, she would never be as powerful as Jiang Xiao’s Green Glow.

To Jiang Xiao, it would be easier to smash ordinary soil.

At this moment, Jiang Xiao became an elite who was continuously digging underground and opening up a tunnel for the rest.

While he was still replenishing Star Power using the Star Beads, Jiang Xiao punched the door open with just the right amount of force. He knew to control his force after practicing several times.

Jiang Xiao suddenly recovered from the shock, but he realized that Second Last had already knocked him onto the ground. Like a beast, she pinned another mercenary down, though the latter was keeping his guard up.

Although Jiang Xiao was only a greenhorn in the Stardust Stage, his upgraded Gold Quality Green Glow made him worthy of being Second Last’s teammate.

Hai Tianqing and Han Jiangxue’s team never once expected that Jiang Xiao, who was usually jovial and mischievous, would be the turning point of the battle.

At this moment, no one dared to create any trouble or question the power of Jiang Xiao’s Green Glow.

Han Jiangxue and Xia Yan both knew it too. Xia Yan’s right fist was still covered in flames that acted as their light source. The two of them made eye contact with each other and realized that they all had complicated gazes.

Some people just could not be stopped.

Awesome!

Jiang Xiao was over the moon.

It seemed that ever since Jiang Xiao brought Han Jiangxue to Second Last, the Internal Star Map automatically considered the three of them to be in the same team.

Jiang Xiao seemed to have become the temporary commander of the team.

In the deformed team of three, the healer became the frontliner who cleared the path and created a route for his teammates. He became a Melee mud-digger.

The Rules Awakened Han Jiangxue became a supplement and a walking airbag.

The only Melee fighter seemed to have become a beast who was obsessed with killing. She lost her rationality and was like a ferocious Star Pet…

Logically speaking, Han Jiangxue and Jiang Xiao were considerably weak to Second Last, but they had particularly strong Star Techniques.

The two of them relied on their special Star Techniques and delved into Second Last’s team. During the battle, the two of them seemed to have inflicted greater impact than the Guardians Of The Night.

Of course, Xia Yan and Li Weiyi who were on the same level as Han Jiangxue were in much more dire straits…

The group followed Second Last and charged forward while stopping every now and then. They then continued along their tracks.

However, everyone seemed to be straying further away and Second Last did not let Jiang Xiao continue clearing the path.

When Second Last stopped again, she was looking diagonally upwards.

It seemed to be a good sign.

The fire had been stopped and the White Ghouls seemed to have been wiped out.

“He’s still alive,” Second Last said in a hoarse and slightly shaky voice, though her gaze was less menacing.

Hai Tianqing asked, “Really? He’s still alive?”

Second Last crinkled her nose and answered, “He’s diagonally above us.”

“What are you waiting for? Go give them some help,” Jiang Xiao said without hesitation.

For the sake of getting Skill Points… no, for the sake of protecting his teammates, Jiang Xiao was ready to do anything!

The Han Family were the pioneers of the Wasteland Reclaimers, and the Guardians Of The Night were just like allies.

I, Jiang Xiao, a descendant of the Wasteland Reclaimers, must bring my Star Pet with me and do everything I can to help the uncles and aunties of the team of Guardians Of The Night…
