Chapter 23: Leaving the City Again, Acting Alone

The next morning, before dawn, Jiang Lan was awakened by noises coming from the next room.

Jiang Lan's eyes darted around, then she sat up quickly, dressed, and left the room.

In the living room, Shen Qingqiu, dressed in a black combat uniform, carrying a long sword, with her hair tied in a high ponytail, was bending over to put on her combat boots.

Hearing the noise, she looked up and saw Jiang Lan standing in the doorway. She said with some surprise:

"Weren't there no classes today? Why are you up so early?"

Jiang Lan didn't mince words and said directly:

"Auntie, are you going out of town today? Can I come along?"

"You've only just started school..."

"Hey," Jiang Lan said, "Anyway, I don't have any classes today. The advanced class only has three days a week. I'm just staying at home anyway, so I might as well go out. Maybe I can be of help."

Upon hearing this, Shen Qingqiu looked Jiang Lan up and down, a hint of hesitation flashing in his eyes.

She was well aware of Jiang Lan's current strength, and even if he went to the wilderness, he might not encounter any danger.

But as her aunt, she was still a little worried.

Seeing Shen Qingqiu hesitate, Jiang Lan added fuel to the fire, saying:

"And I need to use a lot of essence blood now... I almost used up the amount the academy gave me yesterday, dear Auntie..."

Shen Qingqiu couldn't stand this.

She was completely unable to resist Jiang Lan's coquettishness.

After a moment of silence, she nodded and said:

"Okay, but you have to follow orders."

"Received." Jiang Lan stood at attention and saluted Shen Qingqiu.

This action almost made Shen Qingqiu burst out laughing.

She rolled her eyes.

"Go change your clothes quickly."

"yes!"

Jiang Lan quickly returned to her room, changed into her combat uniform, slung her backpack over her shoulder, and checked what she needed to bring.

Then, she picked up her phone and sent Lin Yu a message to report her whereabouts.

Although there are no classes, Lin Yu said that if you want to leave the city, you have to report to the college in advance.

Jiang Lan, however, did not object.

It's just typing two words, it doesn't take much effort.

After tidying up and quickly washing up, Jiang Lan and Shen Qingqiu went downstairs together.

As usual, Shen Qingqiu drove.

Twenty minutes later, the SUV stopped in front of the compound gate.

The two walked into the scavenging team's hall, one after the other.

By this time, most of the other team members had arrived.

When they saw Shen Qingqiu come in, everyone greeted him.

Immediately afterwards, people noticed Jiang Lan following behind Shen Qingqiu.

"Brother Jiang Lan, I heard you went to the Martial Arts Academy? Why are you here again?"

Jiang Lan smiled and said:

"Of course, we can't bear to part with Brother Zhao."

Zhao Gang shivered.

"Brother, your Brother Zhao has a family... that won't do."

"Ha ha……"

Jiang Lan smiled.

He was joking, and the others could naturally tell.

Zhao Gang's words were merely meant to lighten the mood.

For a moment, the group burst into laughter.

On the other side of the hall, some people didn't look so happy.

From the moment he saw Jiang Lan enter, Li Hu's expression turned sour. He only glanced at her before turning away to talk to his subordinates.

Jiang Lan naturally noticed it, but he only glanced at Li Hu and didn't pay any attention to it.

Even when he was at the third level of Vajra Indestructible, Li Hu was no match for him.

Now, when he beats Li Hu, it's no different from a father beating his son.

If the other party dares to cause trouble, Jiang Lan wouldn't mind letting them know why the flowers are so red.

Once everyone had arrived, Shen Qingqiu stood in the center of the hall.

"Today we're going to the ruins in the northern suburbs. Same old routine: three teams will split up and meet in two hours."

As she spoke, her gaze swept over everyone, finally settling on Jiang Lan.

"Jiang Lan will still leave the city with the first squad today."

No one had any objections, and they all nodded in agreement.

Ever since Jiang Lan awakened his special talent and defeated Li Hu, no one in the team dared to underestimate him.

After Shen Qingqiu finished giving his instructions, everyone filed into the car.

The off-road vehicle drove out of the base city and sped along the abandoned highway.

Forty minutes later, the convoy stopped on the outskirts of a dilapidated cluster of buildings.

The area of ​​the ruins in the northern suburbs is much larger than that in the eastern and southern suburbs, and as far as the eye can see, there are only broken walls and ruins.

Moreover, the number of ferocious beasts in this place is also greater than in other places.

After everyone got out of the car, Shen Qingqiu quickly assigned search areas, and the three teams dispersed.

After the first team entered the ruins and walked for a while, Jiang Lan suddenly spoke up:

"Captain, I want to act alone."

Shen Qingqiu paused and turned to look at him.

"Acting alone?"

"First-tier ferocious beasts pose no threat to me, and I'm more efficient traveling alone," Jiang Lan said. "Don't worry, I won't go too far."

Shen Qingqiu hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded.

She knew Jiang Lan's current strength; a first-tier ferocious beast couldn't hurt him at all. Rather than letting him waste his time following behind the group, it was better to let him go out on his own.

"Don't go too far, contact us immediately if anything happens."

"Don't worry, Auntie."

Having received permission, Jiang Lan said no more, turned and went down a side road, leaving the group behind.

Once he could no longer see anyone else, Jiang Lan stretched his wrists and tightened his grip on the long sword.

There is only one goal for today.

Kill ferocious beasts and obtain their essence and blood.

The more the better.

Jiang Lan activated all five senses and strode quickly along the ruins.

They hadn't gone far when a deep roar came from ahead.

"Roar—"

Jiang Lan looked in the direction of the sound and saw three iron-backed wolves lying in the ruins. Hearing footsteps, the three ferocious beasts raised their heads at the same time, their scarlet eyes locking onto Jiang Lan.

Wow, a great start!

The triple blast was a pleasant surprise for him.

In the past, if he encountered three Ironback Wolves, he would have had to think twice.

But now, let alone three, even ten wouldn't be enough.

Jiang Lan glanced at the long sword in his hand, then simply put it down on the ground beside him and strode towards the three ironback wolves.

"Awoo!"

The three ironback wolves sprang up almost simultaneously and pounced on Jiang Lan.

Jiang Lan neither dodged nor avoided, and kicked the Ironback Wolf charging at the front on the head.

"Bang!"

"Snap!"

The iron-backed wolf's head snapped to one side, a sharp crack coming from its neck. Its body rolled four or five meters away, twitched twice on the ground, and then went still.

At this moment, the remaining two Ironback Wolves also pounced on Jiang Lan, their sharp claws striking at her from the left and right.

"Bang! Bang!"

Two muffled thuds sounded, and Jiang Lan remained expressionless.

I wouldn't say I felt nothing at all, but I could only say it was neither painful nor itchy.

Four words suddenly flashed into his mind.

Are you in?

Suppressing his laughter, Jiang Lan grabbed the heads of the two Ironback Wolves, one in each hand.

"A powerful hand that can split skulls!"

"Bang!"

The two iron-backed wolves' heads collided violently, causing a large dent in their skulls. Blood flowed from their mouths and noses, and they immediately died.

All three Ironback Wolves died.

The entire process took less than ten seconds.

This is what a real man's fighting style looks like.

Cool!
