Chapter 55: Su Ming is carried away
A silent atmosphere permeates the warehouse street, as if rejecting visitors.
It was quiet and deserted here. There seemed to be no life within a kilometer radius. Not to mention people, there was not even a bird to be seen.
In the plan of the base city, due to its location, there is no need to build any defense lines on the Warehouse Street. Instead, it needs to be specially vacated so that it can be used as a battlefield immediately when needed.
Therefore, this place is currently in an idle state, with no one coming in or out, and it can be said to be quite lonely.
But it is precisely because of this that this place has been targeted by those with ulterior motives.
At least, in the eyes of some suspicious people who are not willing to show themselves in public, there is no more suitable hiding place than here.
When Su Ming and Xu Qianqian sneaked into the depths of Warehouse Street, they found their target.
“Sure enough, it’s here.”
Su Ming narrowed his eyes and looked at Xu Qianqian beside him.
In front of the two of them, in the shadows of a dim place, there were a few people standing there as if they were standing guard.
Their attire was not much different from that of Su Ming and Xu Qianqian at this moment; they all wore masks, wore black clothes, and held weapons in their hands. Apart from occasionally talking to each other, their eyes were always darting around, maintaining vigilance.
"Finally we caught them again."
Xu Qianqian stared at the scene closely with a cold expression.
"What now?"
Su Ming lowered his voice to the lowest level and asked Xu Qianqian for her opinion.
Xu Qianqian answered without any hesitation.
"Find a way to get in."
It is obvious that the eldest daughter of the Xu family has no intention of backing down here.
She took out two bottles of medicine from her arms, handed one to Su Ming, and drank the other one herself.
Su Ming was surprised to find that at this moment, Xu Qianqian's presence suddenly dropped sharply, and even her figure seemed a little blurred. If he blinked, it might take several seconds to reconfirm her existence and find her figure.
"What kind of potion is this?"
Su Ming's eyes began to light up as he looked at the potion in his hand.
Xu Qianqian did not explain, but said directly: "We have to find a way to cross their cordon."
"Isn't this simple?" Su Ming didn't ask any more questions. After drinking the potion, he said, "Throughout the ages, when it comes to this time, people will only use one trick to attract other people's attention."
As he spoke, Su Ming picked up a stone from the ground, weighed it, and handed it to Xu Qianqian.
"Use all your strength and throw it as far as you can."
Su Ming gave this difficult task to Xu Qianqian, a hunter.
Xu Qianqian gave Su Ming a speechless look, then took the stone and waved her slender hand. The stone immediately flew into the distance with a slight whistling sound.
“Bang!”
After a while, the stone hit a container in the distance heavily, causing a loud noise.
“————!?”
The suspicious people on guard immediately turned around and looked towards the source of the sound.
"Now!"
At this moment, Xu Qianqian grabbed Su Ming, her body suddenly moved, turned into a gust of wind, and rushed forward.
"Lying"
Su Ming felt dizzy and was about to shout out subconsciously, but he immediately covered his mouth to stop the swear words that were about to come out.
He had been planning to think of some way to lure the guards away little by little, but he never expected that the young lady next to him was so bold and presumptuous. He just diverted a little of their attention and immediately took action.
Poor Su Ming, he was just a young man weighing more than 100 pounds, but in Xu Qianqian's hands, he was like a package. She lifted him up easily in her hands and carried him away, turning into a gust of wind and whizzing past the guards.
That speed was a world of difference compared to the last time Su Ming fought on the outskirts of the Demon Hunting Academy.
By the time Su Ming reacted, he discovered that he was already in the shadows behind the guards.
Xu Qianqian acted as if nothing had happened. She held Su Ming down, hid in the shadows, and kept an eye on the outside.
Perhaps the potion that she had just drunk took effect. Even though Xu Qianqian moved like this, the people on guard still didn't notice anything.
"What was that noise just now?"
"Who's going to take a look?"
"I'll go."
Those people were talking like this without noticing anything, and one of them left the team and went to investigate the place where the noise just happened.
Xu Qianqian turned around and looked at Su Ming, motioning him to go forward.
Su Ming blinked and forced himself to stop looking at Xu Qianqian as if she were a god.
There's no way, this girl is not only brave, but the speed and movements she just demonstrated are also amazing.
Even with the help of that unknown potion, it was unbelievable that Xu Qianqian could pass by several professional hunters without being discovered.
(I'm afraid this girl's strength has surpassed those one-star hunters, right?)
Su Ming made such a bold guess.
This is not an exaggeration.
You know, as long as you graduate from the Demon Hunting Academy and pass the professional-level assessment of the base city, then no matter who you are, you can be considered a one-star hunter or a one-star warlock.
The difficulty of the professional-level assessment is actually not that great. As long as one can graduate successfully and has no major problems with conduct, he or she can basically pass it.
In fact, if one's grades are excellent, even if there are some problems with one's conduct, the base city will turn a blind eye.
After all, humans are in urgent need of manpower and professionals to join in facing the invasion of the Spirit Demon Prison. Naturally, they will not make the difficulty of the assessment too high and exclude a large number of manpower.
Under such circumstances, every year, graduates of the Demon Hunting Academy are basically able to pass the assessment and become a one-star professional.
Among these people, some are top students and elite students, but more are ordinary students, and some even rank at the bottom of the class.
Their strength is not much better than that of the top and elite students, let alone compared with the super geniuses with outstanding grades in the lower grades.
Otherwise, Lei Hao, Ye Bai and others would not have said that in the Warlock Department, even some senior students could not use spiritual magic above Sequence 20, not even Su Ming, a sophomore.
And a genius like Xu Qianqian, who ranks among the top students in the Demon Hunting Academy and whose strength is among the top three in the entire academy, naturally has the potential to be far stronger than a one-star hunter.
Otherwise, why are one-star, two-star, and three-star professionals still low-level professionals?

This is because in these star levels, the strength requirements for professionals are generally not high.
Especially for one star, as long as you are a hunter or a warlock, you can basically achieve it smoothly if there are no problems.
Thanks to this, among the seven star levels of professionals, one-star professionals are the most numerous, even accounting for 90% of the entire professional circle.
Only when you reach the two-star level will the strength requirements be greatly increased.
As the last threshold before becoming a senior professional, three stars has very demanding requirements for professionals at this star level. Professionals who can get this star level are much stronger than those who can get two stars.
Combining these reasons, Su Ming can say with certainty that Xu Qianqian's strength is far beyond those of one-star professionals.
(Compared to the last time they fought, the strength is simply on two different levels.) Su Ming sighed and nodded to Xu Qianqian.
The two of them took action again, sneaking in quietly following the shadows.
Originally, Su Ming was deliberately suppressing the sound of his footsteps, but after a while he found that even if he stepped hard on the ground, it did not cause any noise, which made him feel curious for a while.
This made Su Ming couldn't help but say something to Xu Qianqian.
"Give me a few bottles of this stuff when you get back."
This is definitely a must-have medicine for stealing, murder and arson.
Unfortunately, Xu Qianqian ignored Su Ming, who was a little addicted, and kept holding Su Ming's hand, suppressing her whole body presence, and slowly entered the interior of the warehouse street.
Along the way, the two encountered several suspicious people standing guard or patrolling with weapons, wearing masks and wearing black clothes.
However, these people all seemed to be one-star professionals and did not find any trace of Su Ming and Xu Qianqian.
The two of them sometimes hid in the shadows, sometimes waited for the opportunity, sometimes turned, and sometimes ran at high speed (thanks to Comrade Xu Qianqian for the high-speed ride), going deeper and deeper into the area.
But after arriving here, Su Ming and Xu Qianqian felt that it was difficult to move forward.
There is no other reason.
By the time we got here, there were no one-star hunters standing guard or patrolling.
The next suspicious person that Su Ming and Xu Qianqian encountered was far superior to the previous ones in terms of aura and momentum.
“Two stars.”
Xu Qianqian murmured softly, her whole body tense.
“It’s indeed a two-star.”
Su Ming also had to admit that the suspicious characters he and his partner had encountered were all two-star professionals.
The two of them made a preliminary calculation of the combat capability of this suspicious group.
"So far, we have encountered a total of 26 people." Xu Qianqian analyzed calmly: "Among them, about seven are two-star professionals, and the rest are all one-star professionals."
Hearing this, Su Ming also spoke up.
"Their combat power is definitely more than that." Su Ming said, "The leader's strength is definitely higher than the others. He might really be three-star. And the last time we met them in the suburbs, they had two warlocks who could release [Lifting Flow]. Those two might also have two-star strength, or even very close to three-star."
Su Ming and Xu Qianqian have not met these three people yet.
In other words, according to conservative estimates, the other side has twenty-nine people, nearly thirty people, including one three-star hunter, two two-star warlocks, seven two-star hunters and nineteen one-star hunters.
"Tsk tsk, your fighting ability is quite good."
Su Ming was amazed.
"We can only get here." Xu Qianqian frowned and said, "The ones ahead are basically all two-star professionals. I can't use the previous method to move forward."
That way it will definitely be discovered.
"Then we"
Su Ming was just about to say something when he suddenly heard some strange noises in his ears.
