Chapter 314: Thunder Beast

In fact, it's not just Hua Shangnan. Most of the people on the starship who want to get close to her have ulterior motives. Even Wang Qing, although he concealed it very well, his thoughts about her are probably not innocent.

In fact, Ning Xuan was quite successful in concealing her gender. However, no matter how successful she was, she was still a woman after all, with delicate skin and a slim figure. Even if she made horrible scars on her face and painted her skin dark, it couldn't hide her delicate features.

Furthermore, male spirit controllers have a keen intuition hidden in their genes. The higher the level of the male, the more likely he is to be driven by his intuition and develop a liking for her.

On the contrary, those of lower levels are more insensitive to this aspect.

A few months passed, and Ning Xuan felt that she missed Yu Mingche, Ying Yaoshi, Yun Han, Lin Mo, Chen Nan, Di Youlin and others. The first person Ning Xuan saw when she entered this world was Lin Mo, and then Chen Nan stayed by her side, and later there were more and more people around her. She didn't think they were outstanding after staying with them for a long time before, but what she saw and heard during this period of time made her deeply realize that whether it was Lan Xin, Di Youlin or Yu Mingche, they were all extremely beautiful, and the looks of Lin Mo, Jiuwei and others were far beyond the most outstanding people who could be seen here.

If she had not run away, at least she would have Lin Mo by her side now, and with her status and position, she would have many privileges. Even if she served at the Second Legion headquarters base, she could recruit anyone she wanted except Ying Yaoshi. The conditions in all aspects were definitely much better than here.

Ning Xuan felt that her current behavior was asking for trouble. The battles she could encounter here were all very low-level, and were not as exciting as exploring the secret realm on the new planet.

However, according to the information she had gathered, the current calm was because this phase was a truce.

After the three-month adaptation period, the atmosphere at the base became noticeably tense.

On this day, Hua Shangnan found Ning Xuan and said to her with a serious face, "Ning Zhi, magnetic storm and lightning weather is coming soon. Along with the bad weather, there will also be a star beast unique to this star field, the Thunder Beast."

"In this kind of weather, the obsidian magnetite veins can absorb magnetic force and lightning power, and produce special ores that can store lightning power. Special ores are truly rare and priceless treasures. They are rare resources that we must do our best to obtain."

"However, the Thunder Beast also relies on devouring this special ore to complete its evolution. Therefore, in the next three months, this planet will be plunged into a protracted war."

"And the ordinary team you are in now will become cannon fodder in the first round of war, and only less than 30% of the lucky ones can survive. So, if you follow me to join the special defense force, you will also go to the battlefield, but you will be able to obtain more and better equipment. Not only will your survival rate be greatly improved, but your chances of making meritorious service will also increase a lot." In order to persuade Ning Xuan, Hua Shangnan did not hesitate to tell Ning Xuan all the information he knew.

"Hua Shangnan, your surname is Hua, are you related to the Qinglong family?" Ning Xuan asked.

"I'm a descendant of the Hua family's side branch. I'm mediocre and not valued, so my position in the army is earned by my own efforts. It has nothing to do with my family." Hua Shangnan explained solemnly. He didn't want Ning Zhi to think that he relied on his family to achieve his current success.

"Oh, I used to be weak, and this is my first time to see the world. I didn't know the meaning of the black bracelet at first, but I found out later." Ning Xuan looked at Hua Shangnan indifferently.

Hua Shangnan suddenly felt a sense of oppression. He swallowed nervously, lowered his head, and did not dare to look at Ning Xuan.

"I'm sorry, I was too presumptuous that day." Ning Zhi has been avoiding him since that day, and Hua Shangnan knew it. He was unwilling to accept him.

"But everything I told you today is for your own good. I just don't want you to be in danger." Hua Shangnan didn't know why he felt guilty when facing Ning Zhi. He clearly didn't do anything to let Ning Zhi down.

"Thank you for your kindness. I came here alone because I don't want to rely on anyone, Colonel Hua, I will not leave my current team. Thank you for telling me the news about the Thunder Beast." Ning Xuan said and turned away.

As the atmosphere at the base became increasingly tense, Ning Xuan could clearly feel that the lightning energy in the air was gradually increasing while performing field missions.

Ning Xuan came out of the underground base and stood on the tallest tower outside the base. She released her mental power and used it to explore and make sure there was no one around. Then she sat cross-legged on the ground and practiced the "Spirit Inducing Technique" to guide and refine the external lightning power and incorporate it into the blue meridians.

A fiery red bird flew out from between Ning Xuan's eyebrows, squatted beside her angrily, and looked at her.

After Ning Xuan finished her training, she raised her hand to touch the little red bird. The little red bird chirped at her, and its expression looked very unhappy.

"Okay, Xiaohong, I've told you everything. I just want to find a companion for you. In the future, if you encounter danger, it can fight alongside you. Won't we be more powerful?" Ning Xuan comforted the little red bird while holding it in her hands.

Ning Xuan chose this location after a rough screening just for the thunderstorms here. Since there are many thunderstorms here, there must be abundant lightning power.

Her second companion spirit was of the wind and thunder type. Its cultivation progress was very slow in a normal environment. Even though she had used many thunder crystals during her retreat, the second companion spirit still could not condense into shape.

Therefore, she wanted to use this place to help the wind and thunder companion spirit in her body take shape.

"Lieutenant Ning, Lieutenant Ning." Ning Xuan heard someone calling her from below.

A bearded man was waving at her. He was a team leader under her. He looked anxious and it was obvious that something had happened.

Ning Xuan looked at the height of the tower and jumped down. When the team leader saw her jump down, he was so scared that he closed his eyes.

"Oh, Commander Ning, it's so high, why did you jump directly down? What if you get hurt?" said the team leader with a look of fear on his face.

"What happened? Tell me quickly." Ning Xuan asked with a frown.

"Commander Ning, Lieutenant Huo was injured yesterday when he went to the Ninth Mining Area to perform a mission. The injury was quite serious and he needs to rest for a while. He recommended you to temporarily take over his position." The team leader said with a conflicted look on his face.

"It's not like I haven't taken care of him before. What's the matter? Is there anything special this time?" Ning Xuan asked sharply.

"We just received an order from above to have our company stationed in the ninth mining area, and we can only take over the shift after seven days." The team leader said with a frown.
