Chapter 142: Aniliya leaves, last night encounter

At night, the stars are twinkling and the moonlight is bright.

Inside the wall of the third checkpoint of Japan, in an open space, a bonfire was built with a pile of branches, burning fiercely in the dark, crackling and sending sparks everywhere.

Gu Yun, Xu Shisan, Aniliya, Li Feiyang, Hu Kai, Shen Xuang
Ten people sat around the campfire, chatting happily and grilling meat.

Today, Xu Shisan and Annelia returned safely. Everyone was very happy, and the guilt in everyone's heart gradually dissipated.

That day, if Xu Shisan had not stayed alone, all of them might have been trapped there and died.

After Xu Shisan disappeared, they felt extremely guilty.

"By the way, Captain Gu, I want to ask, are those two S-level crocodile dragon beasts dead?" Xu Shisan suddenly asked in front of the campfire.

When Xu Shisan asked this question, everyone looked at each other in confusion.

Li Feiyang asked back: "Brother Thirteen, we all left that day, and you were the only one left to cover us. Don't you know whether those two S-level crocodile dragon beasts are dead or not?"

"Well, actually, I fell into a coma very early that day and don't remember what happened afterwards," Xu Shisan explained.

He wasn't lying about this.

That day, after Xu Shisan summoned Seraph 001, he fell into coma the moment the lightsaber fell. Xu Shisan really had no idea what happened afterwards.

When everyone heard these words, they looked at each other again.

Li Feiyang explained again: "Brother Thirteen, to be honest, when we returned, we saw that the male S-level crocodile dragon beast had only a huge head left. Its body and limbs were gone, as if it had turned to ashes. Then we took the head of the S-level crocodile dragon beast and buried it in our secret base."

"As for the female one...I think it has all turned to ashes."

At this point, Li Feiyang couldn't help but curiously said, "Speaking of this, when we returned, the area by the lake, within a radius of five kilometers, had turned into a barren land. The ground was a burnt black-brown color. The trees, flowers, and gravel in that area were all turned to ashes, and even the bottomless lake water had all evaporated."

"Brother Thirteen, was that the scene that day caused by you? How did you do it?"

Everyone looked at Xu Shisan in unison, and everyone was confused.

Everyone saw the scene that day. Within a few kilometers, it was a barren land with no grass growing. All living things turned to ashes.

When several people saw this, their eyes almost popped out of their heads and they kept shouting “Oh my God!”, which scared everyone silly.

Facing everyone's confusion, Xu Shisan explained: "Actually, I don't know what happened. I wanted to randomly summon a powerful summoned beast to fight against the two S-level crocodile dragon beasts. As a result, as soon as I summoned it and the dimension gate opened, I fainted due to the huge consumption. I don't know what happened afterwards."

After hearing this explanation, Annelia at the side couldn't help but curl her lips.

When they were in the Haiqing tribe, Annelia asked Xu Shisan this question more than once, and his answer was always the same.

But Annelia is not stupid, Xu Shisan must be lying to her.

However, since Xu Shisan was unwilling to say it, Annelia never forced Xu Shisan.

She was not a person who liked to force others, except for those few days when she was in bed with Xu Shisan.

As for Gu Yun, Li Feiyang, Hu Kai and others, they certainly did not believe what Xu Shisan said.

Everyone looked at each other and knew that Xu Shisan was lying.

But this matter is Xu Shisan's personal secret, and they cannot force Xu Shisan to tell the truth.

At this time, Li Feiyang asked again: "Brother Thirteen, let's not talk about this for now. I heard from Angzi that you have summoned a summoned beast comparable to S-level? Is this true?"

It was no secret that Xu Shisan summoned the Fire Demon 457 to kill everyone during the Imperial Capital College Challenge, so Shen Xuanang also told Li Feiyang and others.

If it were before they met those two S-level crocodile dragon beasts, before Xu Shisan disappeared, and before they saw Xu Shisan's true strength, they would definitely not believe it, but now, they believe it firmly!
"This is true. It's like this. Ever since I fainted from training, I felt a strange connection with the summoned beasts in a certain dimension when I woke up. I can summon them even without signing a contract with them. That S-level summoned beast is a creature from that dimension. I have always had a strange connection with it, so."

This explanation of Xu Shisan was the same one he had used to fool Chen Laolin, Mu Xue and the others before. It was just right to use it now without having to worry about arousing suspicion in others.

Hearing Xu Shisan's explanation, Gu Yun frowned.

Establishing a connection with a certain dimension, isn't this a special feeling that only occurs when one is about to step into the threshold of becoming an S-class summoner?

But Xu Shisan is just a C-level summoner, how could he...
But when she thought about the various secrets surrounding Xu Shisan, Gu Yun felt relieved.

This guy is like a cloud of fog.

Li Feiyang, Hu Kai, Shen Xuanang and others looked at each other in surprise when they heard Xu Shisan's explanation.

In their opinion, Xu Shisan's explanation was a mixture of true and false, true and false, half true and half false, so everyone could only take it as the truth.

At this time, Hu Kai said thoughtfully: "Thirteenth brother, that is to say, you sensed a very powerful summoned beast in that dimension that day, and you wanted to summon it out to cover your retreat, but you passed out due to excessive consumption, is that right?"

"Well, you can say that." Xu Shisan nodded.

"Then what kind of summoned beast is this one you sense? What level is it?" Hu Kai asked thoughtfully again.

"I don't know about that." Xu Shisan shook his head.

“Anything that can cause that kind of damage must be at least an SS-level summoned beast.” Li Chengqu said from the side.

"No, no, no. An attack that can kill an S-level Crocodile Dragon Beast instantly must be an SSS-level summoned beast, at least." Luo Xiong gave a different opinion.

But no matter what the opinions and speculations were, at this moment, everyone was extremely shocked in their hearts.

Xu Shisan, a summoner whose level was lower than theirs, could actually summon such a powerful summoned beast.

Recalling the scene of the fierce battle with the group of crocodile dragon beasts that day, Xu Shisan's three summoned beasts fought against more than a dozen A-level crocodile dragon beasts, especially the last evolved Mosquito Girl, which killed more than a dozen A-level crocodile dragon beasts in just half a minute. It was simply terrifying.

And that giant lizard that can evolve while fighting is also terrifying.

And the rotten old man who could release black corrosive liquid. At that time, the peak A-level pseudo-beast king suddenly disappeared. Li Feiyang and the others felt that it was done by that strange rotten old man.

This guy's summoned beasts are all more monstrous and evil than the last.

It’s really hard to compare people to death, and you have to throw away goods when comparing goods!

"Brother Thirteen, at the beginning, we thought you were a pretty boy who relied on connections to sneak into our hunting team. We didn't expect you to be so capable. I was wrong about you." Li Feiyang sighed at this time.

"Yeah, if I had known that Brother Thirteen was so strong, I would have cleaned my ass and hugged his thighs long ago."

"It's not too late for you to wash yourself now."

"Hahahaha"

Everyone talked and laughed together, and chatted a lot. Most of the time they talked about Xu Shisan and his summoned beast. Xu Shisan tried to be perfunctory, and his words were three-quarters true and seven-quarters false.

It’s not that Xu Shisan doesn’t want to tell them the truth. This is his own secret and Xu Shisan can’t tell anyone.

The orange-red flames were imprinted on Xu Shisan's face. Gu Yun, who was standing in front of the campfire, remained silent as she watched Xu Shisan answering everyone's questions seriously. No one knew what he was thinking.

While eating barbecue, Xu Shisan suddenly thought of the three-leaf spirit gathering grass and the twin lotus.

So Xu Shisan asked Gu Yun, "Captain Gu, did you get those three-leaf spirit gathering grass and the twin lotus?"

Hearing Xu Shisan asking this, Gu Yun replied: "Yes, they are all with me. They have not been moved and are well preserved. We are all waiting for you to come back."

At this time, Li Feiyang also said: "Yes, Thirteen has returned safely, let's divide the three-leaf spirit gathering grass among us."

"That's right. Thirteen made the greatest contribution in the last escaping of the elixir. Let's let Brother Thirteen choose first."

"I don't want my share. Just give it to Brother Thirteen."

"I don't want it either." "Just give all those three-leaf spirit gathering grass to Brother Thirteen. If it weren't for him, let alone the three-leaf spirit gathering grass, we would probably all die there."

Listening to everyone's discussion, Xu Shisan immediately said, "Brothers, there are a lot of three-leaf spirit gathering grasses. I can't use them all by myself. In addition, the academy gave me a lot of liquid medicine, which I haven't used yet. How about this, these three-leaf spirit gathering grasses, everyone divides them equally, and the rest, we give to the Judgment Institute."

"Okay, we listen to you."

No one had any objection to Xu Shisan's proposal.

At this time, Xu Shisan looked at Gu Yun and said, "Captain Gu, you are now an A-class summoner. The Twin Lotus will be of the greatest benefit to you, so you should take it and try to advance to an S-class summoner as soon as possible."

"This"

Gu Yun wanted to refuse, but others immediately agreed:

"Yes, Captain Gu, please don't refuse. The twin lotuses belong to you."

"That's right. We are all B-rank summoners at the moment. Taking the Twin Lotuses would be a waste of resources for us."

"Yes, the Twin Lotus is the most suitable plant for Captain Gu to take."

Seeing that everyone and Xu Shisan’s attitude were so tough, Gu Yun had no choice but to accept it.

In fact, Gu Yun wanted to give this twin lotus to Xu Shisan.

But even if Gu Yun gave it to Xu Shisan, he would not want it.

Gu Yun has already accepted this friendship in her heart.

Just as everyone was discussing this, there was a sound of something flying in the sky, and a person jumped down from mid-air and landed not far from the crowd.

By the light of the campfire, everyone saw that the person coming was Braden who came to question them last time.

After Braden landed, he immediately saw Annelia in front of the campfire, and he immediately stepped forward excitedly.

"Miss Annie, you're really back. That's great!"

Seeing that it was Braden, Annelia stood up and went to greet him immediately.

"Uncle Brayden, why are you here?"

"Miss, you're still talking about that. I was so worried during the month you were missing. Your father was even more anxious. When I heard about your return this afternoon, I came here right away. You didn't even bother to contact me by radio after you came back."

Facing Braden's reproach, Annelia explained self-reproachfully: "I'm sorry, Uncle Braden, for making you worry. Anne is here to apologize to you."

"Miss, what are you doing? Now that you are back, it is more important than anything else. Come back with me now."

Having said that, Brayden was about to take Aniliya away.

Annelia said, "Uncle Braden, the hunting competition hasn't ended yet. How can I go back as an exchange player of the Eagle Country Team?"

"You've already disappeared once following the Dragon Nation people. Do you still want to stay here? Do you think your father would agree? Besides, the hunting competition will end in less than a month, and your return will not affect anything. Come with me now."

"But."

Annelia wanted to explain, but Gu Yun stood up and said, "Annie, you've been missing for a month. Your family must be very worried. The competition is not the most important thing. You should go back and take a look."

"Yeah, he's been missing for a month, anyone would be worried."

"That's right, you should go back. At worst you can come back later."

Li Feiyang and others also echoed.

Annelia has been missing for a month, and the Eagle Country has sent many people here to look for her. Annelia's family must be very worried, so they naturally want to go back.

Seeing everyone's dissuasion, Braden's tough attitude, and thinking of her father's worries, Annelia finally compromised.

However, Annelia made a small request:

"Uncle Braden, I can go with you, but it's too late now. I want to stay here for another night and leave with you tomorrow morning."

Hearing this, Brayden thought about it and agreed.

"Okay, then we'll only stay one night and leave early tomorrow morning."

At night, visibility is poor and it is easy to get lost, so Braden has also considered this problem.

Afterwards, he also stayed here for one night and would leave with Princess Anne early the next morning.

The bonfire was extinguished and everyone had already gone back to their rooms to sleep.

Braden arrived at the last minute, but the Japanese army immediately arranged a good room for him.

Late at night, when everyone had rested, Annelia quietly opened the door and walked out of her room, then came to Xu Shisan's room.

She knocked on Xu Shisan's door gently, very gently.

A few seconds later, Xu Shisan's door also opened quietly.

Seeing this, Annelia hurried in and carefully closed the door.

Turning on the light, the room suddenly became bright.

Annelia naturally put her arms around Xu Shisan's neck and sat on the bed with him.

"Hey, I'm leaving tomorrow. Can you bear to let me go?" Annelia stared into Xu Shisan's eyes and asked in a low voice.

"Of course I don't want to, but we've been missing for so many days, your family must be very worried, you should go back and see them."

Seeing Xu Shisan say so, Annelia also felt that she should go back and take a look. Her father must be very worried.

"Okay, then I'll leave early tomorrow morning. I may not come back during the last month of the competition," Anillia explained.

She knew her father very well. After this incident, Annelia would definitely not be able to come as an exchange team member again.

However, Annelia added, "However, after the hunting competition is over, the participating teams from the nine countries will gather at the fifth checkpoint to count the prey from each country and select the rankings. I will also be there, and we will be able to meet again at that time."

"Well, it's only a month, not very long."

"By the way, after the hunting competition, there will be an exchange competition among countries. This exchange competition will be held in your Dragon Country. I will represent the Eagle Country team there then, and we will be able to meet again." Annelia said again.

"Yes, there will be many opportunities to meet in the future."

"But I still can't bear to leave you." Annelia threw herself into Xu Shisan's arms, feeling a little sad.

Xu Shisan hurriedly comforted him, "It's okay. If love lasts forever, it doesn't matter if you're together day and night."

Xu Shisan also said this poem to Xia Keer, and now he passed it on to Annelia.

Of course, Xu Shisan was also reluctant.

"Today is the last night of our separation, won't you give me some token of your appreciation?"

At this time, Annelia hugged Xu Shisan's neck and looked at him lovingly.

"What do you mean?" Xu Shisan smiled mischievously and asked knowingly.

"Tonight, I want more."
