The girl selling goods at the market had never seen money before.

Volume 1: Chapter 34: The Girl's Gains and Losses (4k)

So, that ridiculously powerful skeleton soldier is a combination of two items' ultimate techniques?

One of them, is it the one I sold on the black market before?

So they ended up buying it?

Bai Jinxuan blinked, gradually clearing her thoughts.

This is too dramatic. If she wants to steal, she can't just steal one; she has to steal both.

Can it work?

She couldn't help but question herself.

After a moment of contemplation, she shook her head, banishing the thought from her mind.

Whether it works or not, we have to go for it. Although it's a combination of two items and the cost of creating skeleton soldiers is a bit higher, it's all pretty much the same overall.

Overall, it's no different from the enhanced version of the item she envisioned, so it is the enhanced version.

Thinking of this, she clenched her fists, looking for an opportunity.

Stealing two is much more difficult than stealing one. Rushing forward is tantamount to suicide. The best solution is to wait for people from the Potions Capital to arrive, and then strike when the two sides start fighting.

However, after waiting for a long time, no one from the Potions Capital came. The man in the suit and his men had already killed all the factory employees, packed up all the corpses, and were preparing to leave, but no guards were seen approaching.

Logically speaking, even if the Potions Capital was slow to assemble its forces, or if some unforeseen circumstances along the way affected its journey, it shouldn't be that they haven't arrived yet, right?

At the very least, the garrison troops from other safe zones should have arrived by now, right? How can there be no one here at all?

Are the garrison in the Potions Capital just drawing salaries without working?

Seeing the man in the suit directing the skeleton soldiers to take everything they could and march towards the undeveloped area, Bai Jinxuan became a little anxious.

If we don't act now, it will be even more difficult to act once they reach our territory.

Can't wait any longer!

Though I am young, my swordsmanship is still sharp!

Bai Jinxuan suddenly understood why Zhou Kai had been so foul-mouthed towards Sun Haoqiang. To be honest, she also wanted to curse the guards of the Potions Capital, but she was calmer than Zhou Kai.

Now is not the time to vent your emotions.

She crept quietly into the shadows behind the man in the suit, pondering her next move.

First of all, one's true appearance must not be revealed, otherwise the underground affairs will involve the school, the house, and the Murong family.

I still need to wear the mask; I'll just pinch an old woman's face off.

Then there's the cape. Since "Blackie" is a well-known figure, and Bai Jinxuan plans to continue using this identity to sell goods, she doesn't intend to wear a cape to avoid attracting the attention of her enemies while she's selling her wares and ruining her reputation...

Finally, there's the Shadow Step. If Bai Jinxuan doesn't use this move, then...

If he can't even beat Zhou Kai, let alone Sun Haoqiang, a level 3 martial arts explorer who is qualified to be a teacher at No. 5 Middle School.

So this move is an open secret. The only vision she can provide is of an old woman who can use shadow stealth, has strange grenades and potions, and whose weapon is a magical short sword.

With a shadowy figure lurking around, Bai Jinxuan didn't seek to kill anyone; she only wanted to seize the treasure.

As long as she gets within 1 meter of the target, she can directly activate the treasure chest to steal the reward of the mortal bone, and the cry of the other living dead will not escape either.

The reward for it was much heavier than that for ordinary bones. The skeleton soldier carrying it was almost breaking his back. Even if he let it run away for 10 seconds, Bai Jinxuan could take it away in 3 seconds and then make a quick getaway.

With everything prepared, Bai Jinxuan kept her eyes fixed on the man in the suit. The moment he lowered his guard because of his great success, she quietly extended her right hand from the shadows.

She was already very close to that bone, just an arm's length away, and she would have met the storage requirements for the treasure chest.

But a Tier 3 is still a Tier 3. The moment Bai Jinxuan reached out, Li Haoqiang reacted immediately, pulled the man in the suit behind him, and threw a punch.

Damn it...

The fierce force of the punch exploded out, and Bai Jinxuan didn't even have time to stop before she was forcibly kicked out of the shadows.

it hurts...

She felt as if her left hand had been crushed by a meat grinder, and the pain was excruciating.

He didn't get the reward for the mortal bones, his ability to hide in shadows was exposed, and his left hand temporarily lost its combat ability—all of this happened in an instant.

Is the difference between a quasi-1st order and a 3rd order really that big?

Bai Jinxuan subconsciously reached into her pocket for a life-saving potion to relieve the pain, but as she took the bottle, she suddenly remembered that she was not affected by the medicine at all.

She gritted her teeth, paused for 0.1 seconds, then suddenly thrust her left hand into her pocket, gripped three Meow Meow grenades, and threw them at the man in the suit, Zhou Kai, and the skeleton soldier carrying the tombstone.

After doing all that, she didn't hesitate and turned around to disappear into the shadows like a fish.

"boom!"

A violent explosion rang out, and a beam of blue light blasted a large hole in the factory's ceiling.

As if receiving a command, the other two grenades exploded simultaneously, this time with even greater power. Even Bai Jinxuan, who was running away in the shadows, could feel a violent fluctuation behind her.

"This should at least hold them off..."

Before Bai Jinxuan could finish speaking, a figure shot into the sky from the thick smoke—it was Sun Haoqiang.

His armor was completely undamaged, and he moved with incredible speed, like a shooting star, leaving a very conspicuous trail in the air.

No way, that's my biggest magic crystal...

Bai Jinxuan was dumbfounded. She had spent real money on these grenades, but they couldn't even penetrate the enemy's armor.

The gap in strength was even greater than she had imagined.

The only option left is to use telekinetic swords.

The telekinetic sword's thrust is fast and deals high damage, making it one of Bai Jinxuan's trump cards. Just then, her opponent tried to use a meteor punch on her, and in the ensuing exchange, her thrust was essentially amplified by the speed of both of them, making it even harder to dodge.

I hope you won't be so reckless in your next life.

Her eyes dimmed, and seizing the opportunity, just as the enemy's bombardment was about to reach her head, she leaped out of the sea like a swordfish, aiming straight for Sun Haoqiang's head.

However, she underestimated her opponent's reaction ability. The moment she saw Bai Jinxuan raise her sword to thrust, Sun Haoqiang immediately unleashed his fist in advance. The powerful impact instantly overturned the entire ground, and Bai Jinxuan, who was trying to kill him, was sent flying. She rolled several times on the ground before stopping.

That's cheat code!

Bai Jinxuan struggled to get up, wiped the dust off her mouth with the back of her hand, and stared intently at Sun Haoqiang, her face full of resentment.

The armor is just basic protective gear, offering no enhancements. The gauntlets are simply thick and durable, nothing special. The martial art is just a simple charged punch, something anyone can do...

But why are we so different?

Is it just because he's Tier 3? Even Tier 4 Zhang Hu doesn't have this much intimidation power!

What should I do? What should I do? I have no cards left...

If this continues...

will die!

Her pupils suddenly contracted, and her teeth clenched.

No, I absolutely will not die here.

I still want to go to No. 2 Middle School with Yao Yao, I still want to earn money, and I still want to live a prosperous life.

I've overcome so many difficulties, and I can overcome this one too. So what if it's level 3? So what if it's level 4?

No one can stop me from going back!

Bai Jinxuan took out the Meow Meow grenade from her pocket again.

There are 8 remaining, which, even if they can't create enough distance, will be enough to distract it.

As long as I can buy time to teleport, I'll win!

Thinking of this, she immediately changed direction and ran up the hillside. Utilizing her ability to ignore terrain after she went into hiding, she was able to traverse the jungle full of monsters at a faster speed, unlike Sun Haoqiang.

He not only had to blast away the monsters attacking him with every punch, but also maintain his pursuit speed and deal with the bombs that would occasionally float by.

It was annoying, but he had no choice but to do it. If he didn't use martial arts to defend his entire body, his pursuit speed would be even slower after he was injured, which was unacceptable to him.

We absolutely cannot let this old woman go. She may have overheard everything about the organization. If she reports it to the union, everything will be over!

We must be faster! Kill him before the garrison of the Potions Capital arrives!

Otherwise, if the news gets out and the union issues an arrest warrant, everyone will die!

Sun Haoqiang clenched his fists, roared loudly, scaring away the strange plant that wanted to ambush him, and then with all his might, he punched the ground hard.

In an instant, the mountains collapsed and the earth cracked. Sure enough, the old woman crawled out of the shadows because of the aftershocks, which was the perfect opportunity for him to launch a surprise attack.

He mobilized his internal energy to strengthen his body, then pushed off the ground with one foot and quickly approached.

Charge up the punch!

The immense force of the punch spread out, and without any contact, the sheer power of it was enough to give the opponent a hard time.

However, to his surprise, the other party laughed and chose to take the initiative.

The fist could no longer be pulled back.

A figure swept through the air.

A hoarse laugh then rang out.

"You've been tricked! This is my escape route!"

Realizing that he was actually helping his opponent move, Sun Haoqiang panicked and quickly pressed down on the ground, accelerating in an attempt to connect with his full-force attack at the point of impact.

But Bai Jinxuan had already planned her escape route. When she saw the other party rushing behind her with all her might, she immediately reached out and touched the charred trees beside her, her body blending into the shadows.

There's enough time!

In that instant of stealth, she immediately began teleporting towards the surface.

The pass has a 4-second forward crossover period during which she cannot move.

One second passed, and Sun Haoqiang sprinted at full speed, knocking over everything in his path.

Two seconds passed, and Bai Jinxuan sprinkled 10 bottles of slime under the tree, then threw all the remaining Meow Meow grenades at Sun Haoqiang in one go.

Three seconds passed, and Sun Haoqiang, his entire body covered in pure white gas, leaped high into the air, knocking aside the grenade and slime, and reached out to grab Bai Jinxuan.

Four seconds later, a sharp pain, seemingly emanating from his very soul, swept through Sun Haoqiang's brain. But he endured it, his hands trembling, determined to crush Bai Jinxuan into powder.

4 seconds passed.

His hand passed through Bai Jinxuan's body.

An immense chill and fear, mixed with pain, swirled around his heart.

Is this fake? Have I been tricked? From when?

Was it when using leverage to fly? Or when running up a hillside? Or when dropping bombs?

Could it be that from the very beginning...

His mind was in complete chaos. He had been exposed, and she had escaped. If she reported him to the union, he was finished!

With abilities never heard of before and an extremely bizarre physique, he had never heard of such a person among the explorers in all his years of living underground.

Unless, she is not human.

"Who exactly are you...?"

His inner longing led him to ask that question unconsciously.

---------

It worked!

The moment she became a phantom, Bai Jinxuan breathed a sigh of relief.

This proves that she has successfully teleported. At this time, the marked location will light up red, and the shadow will condense into the shape of a body, becoming her true form.

Meanwhile, the self on this side will be like mud, scattered in the shadows and disappearing.

call--

In the end, I escaped death. This time, I was too arrogant and didn't understand the concept of a Tier 3 Explorer. I thought it would be about a bit stronger than a Skeleton Soldier. It was just a big turtle with a hard shell. When it came to escaping, it couldn't outrun me at all. I was greedy for that valuable item.

As a result, he hit a steel plate, which was a lesson learned.
