Chapter 69 Skeleton



Chapter 69 Skeleton

When the soldier heard Nan Er's question, he stretched out his hand and gestured towards Jiang Rong.

“That’s the ones.”

Jiang Rong also waved to Nan Er.

Nan Er looked at Jiang Rong with confusion. After a while, he trotted over to him.

"Who are you?"

Nowadays, most people outside wrap themselves up like a ball, so it’s no wonder he couldn’t recognize them.

"Nan Er, I'm Jiang Rong, do you still remember me?"

After hearing this, Nan'er's eyes rolled up and down, and then the corners of his eyes slightly raised.

"Remember, remember. Why did you come to see me? Have you thought it through and decided to join our Guangming?" Nan Er said with a smile.

Jiang Rong shook his head.

"Nan'er, we came here to ask you if your people caught the two women yesterday. They are my friends. However, I think they are most likely not your people. I think they are more like people from the force called Skull." Jiang Rong said as he brought up the topic related to Skull.

Nan Er's eyes widened a little when he heard that, and he became excited when he heard the word "skeleton".

"There are too many people here, and I don't know exactly. Please come in with me first, and I'll ask someone to help you."

After Nan Er finished speaking, he took the people to a staff dormitory building behind the government building, and then found another young man who didn't look very old to help.

"I have to go out on a mission today and can't stay for too long, so I'll let Ah Shu ask you about what you want to ask. Just go to him if you have any questions."

"Okay, thank you very much, you can go and do your thing first." Jiang Rong nodded and thanked him, then reached into the backpack behind him and took out a small bag of mutant beast brain pills and handed it to Nan Er.

There were about a hundred pills in that small bag, ten of which were brain pills from second-level mutant beasts.

At this time, and considering the situation outside, the first task for the people of 'Light' must be to use the sudden advantage to desperately collect supplies. And Nan'er seems to be doing well here, so there should be no shortage of supplies for the time being.

Therefore, compared to ordinary supplies, he may need brain pills that can quickly replenish energy.

Moreover, it was the brain pill that Jiang Rong had purified using his supernatural powers.

One hundred pills is not a lot, but it is not a small number either, not to mention that there are ten second-level mutant beast brain pills among them.

One of these second-level mutant beast brain pills is worth one hundred ordinary mutant beast brain pills.

Nan Er looked at the small black bag that was suddenly stuffed into his hand: "What is this?"

Just by looking at the bag, he couldn't tell what was inside.

Jiang Rong: "It may be helpful at a critical moment, please accept it."

She did not explain what was inside, but emphasized the effects of these brain pills.

The brain pills she purified had pure and powerful energy. When psychics absorbed them, they didn't have to worry about being contaminated and turned into monsters. The absorption speed was also two to three times faster than that of ordinary mutant beast brain pills.

Nan Er took off his thick gloves after hearing that. The small drawstring bag was delicate and small. He was clumsy with the gloves on and it was difficult to open it. Fortunately, there was no sunlight in the room at this time, so there was no need to worry about corrosion.

Nan'er tucked his gloves under his armpits, then reached out and opened the small black bag that Jiang Rong had given him, and took a closer look.

Then his eyes suddenly brightened.

The things inside were clearly the brain pills of the mutant beasts outside, and each one was rich in color and smooth in texture. He knew at a glance that the quality of these mutant beast brain pills was extraordinary!

Moreover, he even saw a few second-level mutant beast brain pills in the bag!

This second-level mutant beast brain pill, just one pill, contains ten or even a hundred times the energy of an ordinary mutant beast brain pill... For those psychics who are out and about, having a second-level mutant beast brain pill can really help a lot at critical moments.

An idea suddenly flashed through Nan Er's mind.

He knew that these people were not simple.

Because of this move, it is indeed quite generous.

You have to know that it has been so long since the natural disaster, and apart from the ones he needs on a daily basis, he has only saved two or three hundred mutant beast brain pills, and the energy contained in them is also uneven.

But people just give it away casually...

Thinking of this, Nan Er's desire to win over the other party arose again.

Besides, at this moment, if someone gave him a brain pill, he would not have time to put it away, so he naturally would not refuse.

"Then I'll accept it. If you have any problems in the future, just come to me. In addition, I very much hope that you can consider joining us, the Light. At least in this way, the people of the Skeleton will not dare to provoke you easily in the future." Nan said in his ear as he put the black drawstring bag into the pocket of his coat.

Jiang Rong's gaze now fell on Nan'er's hands which were covered with red marks, some of which had even begun to fester.

Nan Er saw that Jiang Rong seemed to be staring at his hand, and smiled: "My hand is already good. In the past month, many people have more serious lesions than mine."

Jiang Rong nodded after hearing this, and said ambiguously: "Indeed."

At this moment, she already had some guesses as to why Chen Ru and the others were arrested.

"Okay, I'll be leaving first." Nan Er didn't want to stay any longer. They had already wasted quite a bit of time, and they had to get back before dark today.

After dark outside, it becomes a paradise for the mutant beasts. The mutant beasts are forced to hide in the darkness all day and become more ferocious at night than during the day.

Jiang Rong nodded to this.

After Nan'er left, Jiang Rong and the other two waited in the small room in the reception room for about half an hour before the young man named Ashu came back.

"I just asked, and no one from our team brought back the two women you mentioned yesterday." Ah Shu said as he pushed his glasses up.

After hearing this, Jiang Rong was basically certain that the people who kidnapped Chen Ru and Jiang Miao were most likely from the Skeleton Team.

"As for your other two friends, we have no news about them yet."

Jiang Rong was a little disappointed when he heard this, but then he thought, the county town is so big, it was already very good that they could meet Chen Ru and the others as soon as they came out.

As for Xie Lei and Jiang Shang, we can only wait and look for them later.

"Thank you very much. I also want to ask, do you know where the Skeleton's base camp is?"

Since it has been basically confirmed that they are skeletons, the first thing we need to understand is naturally their specific location, so that we can make plans later.

"You three are planning to go and rescue people?" Cheng Shu asked in surprise.

Jiang Rong did not respond and waited for Cheng Shu's next words.

"They have at least 2,000 men now. Even we in the Guangming Army are wary of them. If you three go alone, it would be tantamount to seeking death. Moreover, most of their people have perverse and brutal personalities and act without rules. I advise you three not to have such an idea."

Jiang Rong nodded and continued to ask: "So, do you know where their lair is?"

Jiang Rong was very grateful for Cheng Shu's reminder. At least he knew more about the details of the "skeleton".

Cheng Shu...

"No.1 Middle School."

"No. 1 Middle School in the county?" Jiang Rong asked uncertainly.

"Um."

Jiang Rong thought about it after hearing this. The No. 1 High School in the county is the best high school in Xinan County. It is located roughly in the center of the county town, only two streets away from here.

But the county government area is actually considered an area with relatively few people.

There are four or five large supermarkets around the County No. 1 Middle School, as well as various clothing streets, snack streets and recreational facilities.

In short, it is the most densely populated area in the entire county.

However, since most students had already gone on vacation when the disaster struck, the school was actually empty at the beginning of the disaster.

But no matter what, I have to say that the skeleton boss is pretty crazy for daring to use that place as his base camp.

"Are you really planning to go with three people?" Cheng Shu asked again, with a tone of disapproval.

These people are Nan'er's friends after all, and he doesn't want to watch them die.

Jiang Rong shook his head: "I haven't thought about it yet. Can you tell us more about the skeleton?"

Jiang Rong spoke frankly, the people must be rescued, but how to rescue them specifically still needed to be considered carefully.

In addition, what Cheng Shu said also made sense. There were two thousand people with special abilities on the opposite side, but there were only three people on their side.

If you don't plan well, you're just going to die.

As soon as Cheng Shu saw Jiang Rong's expression, he knew that she had not given up yet.

Then he changed his mind and thought that maybe the person who was kidnapped was an important person to them. If it was Nan'er who was kidnapped, he would definitely be very worried.

Thinking of this, Cheng Shu stopped trying to persuade her, but tried his best to explain everything he knew about the skeleton.

Jiang Rong nodded as he listened, very carefully.

About an hour later, Cheng Shu said, "Don't rush to find someone. Wait for Nan Er to come back and see what he says. I will take you to find a temporary room to stay in."

Jiang Rong nodded upon hearing this.

"Thanks."

Afterwards, several people followed Cheng Shu all the way to the top floor of the staff dormitory, the eighth floor, and then stopped at the door of a room at the end.

We also met a lot of ordinary people along the way, probably the families of the people with special abilities.

"You guys stay here today. When Nan Er comes back later, I'll bring him to see you."

Cheng Shu then gave a few more instructions and left.

Jiang Rong responded to everyone's requests and only closed the wooden door after everyone left.

There were two beds in the room, and there were bedding and other things in it, but apart from the bedding, there was basically nothing else.

The room was not big, and the two beds basically took up half of the room.

After the wooden door was closed, Zhao Runguo and Qi Hao's eyes fell on Jiang Rong's face, waiting for her to speak.

Jiang Rong sat on the edge of the bed, thinking with his head down.

At this moment, her mind was quickly recalling what Cheng Shu had just said to her.

One of the points is about the skeleton 'boss'.

He is an 18-year-old lightning-type psychic, who has just graduated from high school...

However, in Jiang Rong's memory, the number of people with lightning abilities was very small, basically the same number as those with healing abilities and space abilities.

Now in the small Xinan County, besides Xin Jue, another person has appeared...

Moreover, if the opponent's leader is a user with thunder-type abilities, he would definitely not be unknown in his previous life.

But she had no impression of the name Qiu Qing. And the only person she remembered who was a famous lightning-type supernatural being in her previous life was Xin Jue, the second-in-command of the Southern Base.

However, they just wanted to rescue two people, so there should be no need to confront the man named Qiu Qing.

Among the skeletons, in addition to the young boss Qiu Qing, there are four second, third, fourth and fifth in command who are about the same age as him.

It is probably a non-mainstream force formed by a group of non-mainstream teenagers.

Among the other four people, three are fire-type and one is gold-type. They all have natural abilities, which are not too special.

But it is worth noting that the ability levels of these four people are generally second level.

The young leader named Qiu Qing's ability level has reached the middle stage of the second stage.

You have to know that Jiang Rong has been practicing with jade energy every day, but he has only reached the second level, only slightly higher than that person.

At this moment, the ability levels of the psychics are generally still at the intermediate or advanced first level.

For example, Nan'er is a first-level advanced level.

Cheng Shu is a first-level intermediate.

People like Jiang Rong and Qiu Qing are very rare.

In addition, there are not many mutant beasts that have broken through the second level, but if you look closely, there are definitely more of them than humans.

The improvement of human supernatural power levels is generally very slow, but once they reach a bottleneck in promotion, they basically won't stay there for too long, except in the later stages when it becomes more difficult.

The advancement of mutant beasts is fast at first but extremely difficult later on.

It is easier to be promoted than humans in the beginning, but when it comes to the last seven, eight, or nine levels, basically only one in millions can be successfully promoted to the next level.

Generally, these are beast king level beings.
