Chapter 144: To The Spatial Rift Fortress
Xu Zhenguo had already understood how terrifying the Blood Poison Centipede was and how dangerous it was to find the antidote. For Zhou Hao to make such a promise, he could tell that Zhou Hao was extremely courageous.
“Good child, Ling’er was right to have picked you!”
The next morning.
Outside the East Station of the Huadong City.
One after another, ferocious king-level demon beasts stood together.
On their backs were Zhou Hao and the other eight students who were headed to the spatial rift fortress base, as well as some grandmaster-level experts from the fortress base and Han Pu.
Many students from the training class, the school leaders, and Instructor Shen looked at them with reluctance. Zhou Hao’s parents also reminded Zhou Hao to watch out for his safety.
“Mom, Dad, don’t worry. With a supernatural expert and a grandmaster-level expert protecting us, nothing will happen to us on the way! We also have these king-level demon beasts.” Zhou Hao consoled.
Wang Shuyun looked at Xu Ling, whose face was slightly pale, and whispered, “Son, Xu Ling is a good girl. You can’t abandon her just because she’s poisoned!”
Zhou Hao did not know whether to laugh or to cry. “Mom, am I that kind of person?!”
Zhou Xueguo also reminded, “A person has to finish what he started. Of course, you have to act according to your capabilities! Don’t push your limits!”
Zhou Hao was speechless. “Got it.”
On the other side, Xu Zhenguo’s eyes were still filled with tears.
Last night, he did not sleep at all. If not for the prohibition of casual entry to the frontline rift fortress base he would have definitely abandoned everything and accompanied his daughter there.
“Ling’er, don’t worry. Even if I have to go bankrupt, I will find the antidote for you!”
Although Xu Ling’s face was pale, she had gotten much better after last night. “Dad, I’m fine. Besides, didn’t Senior Han say last night that he would get the dean to examine me personally when we arrive at the elite training camp? I believe there will be a way!”
Xu Zhenguo nodded. The dean of the elite training camp was a true super expert. Such a figure definitely had a way to save his daughter.
“Ling’er, take good care of yourself along the way. That brat Zhou Hao is fine, but that’s only if he dares to enter the spatial rift and help you find the antidote. If he does that, I’ll be completely relieved to hand you over to him!”
When Xu Ling heard this, her pale face turned red. “Dad, what nonsense are you talking about?!”
Xu Zhenguo forced a smile. Going to the frontline fortress base was supposed to be something worth celebrating over so he did not want to ruin his daughter’s mood. “My daughter has grown up. It’s time for me to let go. When you get to the fortress, remember to take time to tell me that you’re safe!”
“I will!”
At this moment, Han Pu, who was sitting on the back of a king-level demon beast, slowly said, “Let’s go!”
Roar!
One demon beast after another stood up with a low roar.
“Go home!” Zhou Hao and the other eight students waved their hands.
Instructor Shen and the students of the training class watched as the king-level demon beasts left. They knew very well that they would probably have very few chances to see each other in the future.
…
The journey from the Huadong City to the frontline fortress was more than a thousand kilometers. Fortunately, the speed of king-level demon beasts was not slow and they only needed three days to arrive.
However, because there were a large number of wilderness areas along the way and many foreign races such as demon beasts and insect beasts were everywhere, the time would be extended once an attack happened.
Han Pu drank a small cup of wine and lay comfortably on the demon beast’s fur. “Little girl Xu Ling, don’t worry. Although the poison of the Blood Poison Centipede is intense and the antidote is difficult to find, you will be fine. After all, you’re different!”
“A special physique is extremely effective against poison. As long as you can advance to the grandmaster level, you can rely on the blood in your body to suppress the spread of the poison. It won’t be a problem for you to live!”
Xu Ling bit her lip and could not help but ask, “Senior Han, but… but I only have half a month…”
Han Pu pursed his lips. “That’s only if you have no one around to help you. However, don’t forget that you’re a student of the training camp now. The dean won’t give up on you.”
Yuan Cheng couldn’t help but ask, “Senior Han, is the dean very powerful?”
“Nonsense!” Han Pu said angrily. “Take these king-level demon beasts we’re riding for example… The dean can destroy them with a single breath!”
The eyes of Yuan Cheng, Yun Yan, and the other students lit up.
Xu Ling’s eyes also revealed hope. Such an expert would definitely be able to suppress the poison in her body.
