Alone and Infinite.

Chapter 116 Title: Team Killer!
Li Xia slowly surveyed the now chaotic hall, every corner bearing the marks of the fierce battle that had just taken place.

His gaze finally settled on the bald man lying face up on the ground.

At this moment, the surrounding blood seemed to come alive and began to surge, flowing and gathering on the bald man's body.

Gradually, a blood-red key, exuding an eerie aura, slowly took shape in the pool of blood.

[Bloody Key Nine Groups]

[Note: The boss will summon a creature after killing more than 90% of the raid members and the raid leader.]

[Effect: Allows you to choose from multiple options after use]

Li Xia bent down, picked up the special key, and put it in his pocket.

In a world that discourages killing each other, the key can only be obtained after gaining the right to retaliate.

Holding the two Dragon Balls in my hand and putting them in my bag, the seven balls together seemed to echo each other, and immediately began to shimmer with a soft light.

It was as if a special force was about to emerge, stirring restlessly.

Li Xia suppressed the urge to immediately summon the dragon and tied the bag up.

After glancing back at the hall one last time, he jumped directly down through the gap.

The 200-meter height passed in the blink of an eye, and Li Xia searched the Red Turban Army headquarters.

When the Red Turban Army fled, they took almost all their vehicles with them.

It was half an hour later when Li Xia finally found the capsule in the airplane and took to the sky again.

The plane wasn't fast; compared to the one Bulma had given her, it would take about an hour and a half to reach Kalinta.

With nothing else to do, Li Xia simply set up autopilot and lay back in the chair.

Take a break and relax your mind that has been tense from the battle.

Let's also take this opportunity to review and summarize what we've learned.

The Red Turban Army soldiers we killed didn't drop any particularly good loot; even after killing several hundred, we only managed to get a few ordinary white treasure chests.

I reckon they killed too many people, so they only cleared a few spots in the Hall of Fame as a token gesture.

Ultimately, these Red Turban Army soldiers were just ordinary people, and their fates carried far too little weight in this world, so the authorities naturally wouldn't bother to separate them from the truth.

Dragon Ball is a notoriously 'low-return' world, but it's not that the returns are actually low.

It's not about the loot from kills, but about how you can't beat the powerful ones and the weaker ones drop less loot.

Besides that, there are 9 regular Blood Keys and 1 raid Blood Key obtained from killing nine teams.

Li Xia still remembered that during the war trial, he had also gained the right to retaliate and killed a 'smart idiot'.

However, it seems that back then the equipment was drawn randomly.

Why did it change to a bloody key in the second-order world?

After thinking about it, I decided to wait until we got back to the hall before making a decision, since there was no rush.

There's really no rush. It will only take about an hour or two at most to summon the dragon and then we'll go back.

After taking stock of her gains, Li Xia lay back in her chair, gazing at the blue sky that seemed almost within reach.

To be honest, this is the first time we've fought against an Apostle team.

It has to be said that the initial encirclement and attack really shocked him.

The timing of the move was perfect.

It happened precisely at the moment when the Red Turban Army commander was killed and the Dragon Ball was within reach.

Moreover, the configuration is extremely reasonable.

Li Xia guessed that the other side probably had some kind of perception shielding skill, otherwise, with so many people hiding around, it would be impossible not to notice them.

Start with a sealing technique to prevent the enemy from escaping and restrict their movement.

Immediately afterwards, the most damaging skill was unleashed directly.

If it weren't for an abnormal fluctuation in one's luck stat, one could dodge in advance, and true qi could also shield against energy damage.

He'll probably be seriously injured, if not killed, and even so, he's lost almost a quarter of his health.

It was precisely because of this tight encirclement that Li Xia raised his vigilance to the extreme.

So much so that in the second match, they chose to test the waters, even preparing to use a Senzu Bean. Who knew that when the real battle started, it would be so ordinary.

The bald man's Ninth Division has four melee fighters: a swordsman, a fighter using the Tempest Kick, a Shinigami (death-wielding) fighter, and a 'Konoha Ninja'.

Each of them possesses a powerful skill, but is otherwise quite ordinary.

And the mage's fireball is truly astonishingly powerful; it can instantly kill a teammate.

But what's the use of having great power if you can't hit anyone?

unless
Unless… Li Xia frowned, then slowly relaxed, and began to simulate another battle scenario in his mind.

If the opponent's melee fighters hadn't been so easily suppressed, and if his own body hadn't been able to withstand the sharp Tempest Kick attack.

In this situation, the four melee members took turns harassing him, preventing him from gaining a foothold on the liquefied ground and engaging in combat.

The sniper is harassing from a distance; a sniper rifle with an attack power of at least 5 can inflict massive damage.

And it's very difficult to dodge; mages chant spells, and sealers follow up with strong crowd control.
A vivid image immediately flashed through Li Xia's mind: himself deeply mired in the mud, unable to exert any force.

The fireball and the other people's powerful special moves came crashing down at once.

Perhaps this is how this team of nine usually fights?
How to combine everyone's strengths and conceal one's weaknesses through advance planning and cooperation?
But wouldn't that make it easy to be defeated one by one?

Li Xia pondered for a while but had no clue, so he could only conclude that the team was just like that.

He inexplicably thought of the bald-headed regimental commander who trembled but ultimately found peace.

She is shrewd and resourceful, yet possesses the courage to face death.

He was the most outstanding apostle he had ever seen, yet even such an apostle ended his journey at the early second stage.

I don't know
If I were to face death in the future, would I have the courage to accept it calmly?

He shook his head, amused by his own thoughts.

To face death with equanimity is a sign of composure after admitting defeat.

I will never admit defeat, even if I die, I will die on the road to attack!

Li Xia closed his eyes and rested for a while, then took out a communicator from his spatial storage and dialed a number.

"Hey, Bulma?"

Bulma's voice, filled with a mixture of surprise and delight, immediately came from the other end of the phone.

"Xia?! Where are you? I've been calling you, but I can't get through. Where are you?"

The girl's voice carried a joy, and just listening to it seemed like you could see the smile on her face.

However, just a moment later, the voice suddenly dropped, as if Bulma had already guessed what Li Xia was about to say.

"Have you completed your mission?"

Li Xia nodded slightly:
"Um... I'm leaving now."

He turned to look at the vast, boundless sky outside the window and slowly said:

"I'll be at the Holy Land of Kalin Tower in another hour."

He paused slightly at this point:

"I'll wait for you over there."

There was a brief silence on the other end of the phone, followed by the sound of the line being disconnected.

As Bulma listened to the disconnected tone on the phone, a feeling she had never experienced before welled up inside her, leaving her feeling lost and dejected.

She paused for a moment, then grabbed the exquisitely crafted capsule box and rushed out without looking back.

Shortly after, the fastest aircraft in the capsule company took off and sped toward the holy land of Kalin.

The earth finally transformed from sandstone back into a lush, dense forest, and the thin black line on the horizon gradually grew larger.

We've finally arrived at the Holy Land of Kalin!
Next, it's time to summon the dragon.
