Swallowing the Stars: Sacrifice to Become Stronger, Fiancée is Alluring

Chapter 31 SOS Message

three days later.

"Three hundred and forty-two..."

Jiang Lan was covered in blood, her eyes slightly red, and she recited a string of numbers in a voice devoid of any emotion.

If an ordinary person with a weak heart saw Jiang Lan now, they would probably be so scared that they would wet their pants.

At this moment, the murderous aura emanating from Jiang Lan was almost solidified, as if even the speed of the air flowing around him had slowed down.

[Sacrifice successful. Host has obtained 1 Body Tempering Pill (Lion Mastiff).]

Jiang Lan silently opened his system inventory, where ten Body Tempering Pills lay quietly in the inventory slots.

With a slight thought, the Body Tempering Pill appeared directly in his mouth, transforming into a warm current that slowly gathered in his dantian and then flowed to his limbs and bones.

Just a few seconds later, the heat disappeared completely.

Jiang Lan clenched her fist slightly, feeling the powerful force within her body, and for a moment she felt somewhat confused and helpless.

Three days, God of War.

Strictly speaking, a mid-level War God.

Although the exact number is unknown, but...

"boom!"

Jiang Lan casually threw a punch, and a two-story building next to him collapsed with a crash, causing the ground to tremble slightly.

He withdrew his hand, looked at the ruins in front of him, and gradually regained control of his body.

That force is at least 150,000 kilograms.

The threshold for a mid-level War God is 128,000 kilograms.

As for speed.

Jiang Lan bent down slightly and pounced out like a cheetah.

"Boom boom boom boom boom!"

A series of huge sonic booms rang out, and could be heard clearly for several kilometers around.

Three seconds later, Jiang Lan appeared at the end of the street.

According to his visual estimation, the street is about 1.5 kilometers long, or about 1500 meters.

500 meters per second.

Moreover, this speed was achieved without him activating Shadow Strike.

After activating Swift Shadow, it can increase speed by about 20%, which is 600 meters per second.

The standard for a mid-level War God is 460 meters per second.

In other words, Jiang Lan's physical attributes have now completely surpassed the threshold of a mid-level War God.

As for his neural reaction speed, although there was no systematic testing, Jiang Lan could tell that it was definitely not bad.

Jiang Lan let out a long breath, and the crimson in her eyes faded slightly.

The continuous killings had caused him to lose his mind.

Jiang Lan glanced around again, shook his head slightly, and muttered to himself:

"That's enough, it's time to move on to another place."

In this county-level city, he has basically wiped out all the monsters at the level of beast general.

Those few who weren't killed were all targets pre-selected by other martial arts teams.

So even if he stays here, all that's left are some beast soldiers and such.

Accumulating small gains will allow him to continue growing, but the pace will definitely be much slower.

Therefore, he planned to return to the supply base to rest for a while before heading to a place where the monsters were stronger.

But before he could take a step, the communication watch on his wrist suddenly emitted a faint vibration.

"Um?"

Jiang Lan was taken aback. Although he always wore this watch, this was the first time it had given him a notification.

He raised his wrist and saw the word 'SOS' flashing on his watch.

Immediately afterwards, a map appeared, marked with a green dot.

The distress signal function is built into the watch, so even people who aren't from the Ultimate Martial Arts Academy can use it.

However, if the watches used by members of the Extreme Martial Arts Academy send out a distress signal, other members of the academy will see a green dot of light.

If it's another martial arts school or organization, you'll see yellow.

Jiang Lan sees green light now, which means that the person asking for help is from the Extreme Martial Arts Academy.

I glanced at the distance; it was only three kilometers.

Jiang Lan didn't hesitate much and immediately went to rescue the person.

He wasn't cold-blooded, and there were no monsters in this county-level city that could pose a threat to him anymore.

I'm just doing you a favor; it's nothing.

Even if they weren't from the Limitless Martial Arts Academy, Jiang Lan wouldn't stand idly by.

Jiying!

"Boom boom boom boom boom!"

The sonic boom sounded again.

With Jiang Lan moving at full speed, it took less than ten seconds to reach the location where the distress signal was sent.

On a relatively empty street, a dozen pig-like monsters surrounded a group of martial artists.

Among a group of pig-like monsters, the most conspicuous is a one-horned wild boar with a single horn and a body about the size of a small truck.

Judging from the color of its fur and the length of its single horn, this one-horned wild boar is roughly at the level of a mid-level beast general.

It's not exactly strong, but in this small county-level city, it's not weak either.

The martial arts team consisted of five people, and they appeared disheveled and exhausted from being chased by the horde of beasts.

Two of them were already injured, and their movements were somewhat distorted.

At this moment, the members of the martial arts team were completely focused on the fierce battle against the beast horde and did not see Jiang Lan's arrival at all.

Apart from the two who were already injured, the other three were clearly exhausted.

The one-horned boar charged fiercely at the leader of the group.

"team leader!"

In that critical moment, a warrior holding a curved sword next to the leader hurriedly reached out and grabbed him, trying to pull him back.

If you get hit by this, you'll be crippled or killed.

But just then, a figure in black and red, wearing a helmet, appeared in front of the leading man and took the brunt of the boar's charge in his place.

"Bang!"

A dull thud sounded, and the black and red figure took a solid hit from the one-horned boar, without retreating an inch.

On the contrary, the one-horned wild boar had a more human-like bewildered expression on its head. It took more than ten steps back before shaking its head in a daze.

After carefully examining it, a smile appeared on Jiang Lan's face behind the helmet.

He was perfectly capable of dodging the charge from the one-horned boar.

Even killing the unicorn boar before it could collide with him would be a piece of cake for Jiang Lan.

He deliberately got bumped into because he wanted to know what state his body was in.

Three days ago, he was grazed on the head by a wild boar, and his ribs ached for a whole day.

But now, even as he withstood the charge of the one-horned wild boar, Jiang Lan felt nothing at all.

The reason for this is not only because his strength has increased, but also largely due to the passive skill "Steel Skin" obtained as a reward for the sacrifice.

After obtaining the steel sheet, not only did his skin harden, but his internal organs were also strengthened to a certain extent.

Jiang Lan had tested it; if he didn't use a lot of force, even the Golden Feather Halberd could only leave a white mark on the skin of his wrist. To break the skin, Jiang Lan would have to use a lot of force.

This level of defensive capability is equivalent to wearing an extra layer of combat clothing on top of the body.
