Chapter 84 Brother Dao is just too good!
Chapter 84 Brother Dao is just too good!
"What will be your price?" Su Su was curious about this. If it was a price that was hard to bear, then it would be troublesome.
"It seems like we need to pray every day!" Jiao Jiao scratched her head, not quite sure herself.
Fu Xiaojian and Su Su both breathed a sigh of relief: "It's just a matter of time, not a serious cost. You can finish it during night watch or rest periods in the future."
"What about your feedback trait? It should be your ultimate move, right?"
Jiao Jiao's eyes suddenly lit up. She secretly glanced in Xu Si's direction and whispered, "The feedback characteristic seems to be... well, it means that when I use my abilities to heal or purify others, I can recover a little bit of my own energy and stamina! So it's not exactly pure consumption!"
Feedback, commonly known as "taking advantage of someone else's kindness".
She was too embarrassed to say it so clearly in public.
She didn't dare say that the energy she received back from Xu Si was exceptionally abundant, almost equivalent to the energy she had used to treat several people.
This discovery made her very happy, and her eyes sparkled as she looked at Xu Si's scarlet SUV.
Dao Ge is truly a treasure! I'll have to take better care of him from now on!
Xu Si, through the car window, seemed to sense the little girl's "malicious" gaze and subconsciously tightened the [Empty Cloak] on his body.
No one asked whether Jiao Jiao's awakening was natural or not.
After all, everyone saw what happened to Jiao Jiao in front of Xu Si's car yesterday evening.
Asking questions was pointless, but the ordinary people in the convoy regarded Xu Si as a highly sought-after commodity.
Some young and beautiful girls already wanted to do something with their newly purified bodies.
Looking at the revitalized team, Fu Xiaojian took a deep breath and called out, "Alright! Jiao Jiao's successful awakening is a good thing, but we can't let our guard down! Get a good rest tonight, and tomorrow morning, set off in the direction indicated by the worker ants!"
As night deepened, the fog in the swamp seemed to grow thicker.
That night, Xu Si's car window was knocked on at least five or six times, which frightened him so much that he dared not sleep fully clothed and was on high alert.
It's one thing for women to knock on his car window, but then a man actually knocked on his car window too. Does he really think he's indiscriminate in his desires?
Xu Si wrapped his [Empty Cloak] tighter. The lingering sense of emptiness made him lose interest in the commotion outside the window. Coupled with the forced calming effect of [Ice Heart], he ignored all the late-night visitors in an almost meditative state.
"This price... is sometimes a good thing," he muttered, before falling into a deep sleep.
Men really need to take good care of themselves when they're out and about.
The next morning, the blood-red sun's rays struggled to pierce through the thick fog, turning the swamp into an ambiguous dark red.
Jiao Jiao woke up early, full of energy, her fingertips dancing with a milky white halo, eager to show off her new ability.
She first cast "Restore" on everyone in the convoy who were still asleep, and then tried to use "Purify" on the bus and Xu Si's [Melting Wax Messenger], instantly making the vehicle look brand new.
Especially Xu Si's [Metallic Wax Messenger], even the mud on the tires disappeared.
"Auntie, look! Aren't I useful?" She circled around Su Su like a puppy seeking praise.
She originally wanted to go find Xu Si to make her presence known, but unfortunately Xu Si was sleeping in the car the whole time.
"Hmm, don't waste your extraordinary power. Save it for a crucial moment," Su Su said softly, a hint of indulgence in her eyes.
"But how can I advance in rank if I don't use it?" The little girl's advancement mainly relies on the feedback trait, which means the more the trait is used, the more feedback she receives, and the faster she advances.
"Then you can decide for yourself! But don't do anything reckless!" Su Su handed her a slightly warm moss cake.
With Jiao Jiao's [Radiant Follower] sequence, the atmosphere in the convoy became noticeably more relaxed.
After her multiple treatments, the team's overall condition improved significantly. Although she could not cure serious injuries instantly, her effects in relieving fatigue and treating minor wounds were immediate.
Xu Si also took advantage of the little girl's presence to get into peak condition.
The little girl visited me three times this morning.
"I mean, you don't need to treat me every five minutes! I'm not that weak!"
Xu Si always felt that the little girl's gaze was malicious.
His condition couldn't be better right now.
As Xu Si appeared, many more resentful eyes appeared in the convoy, and the little girl glared fiercely at them.
She was so excited last night that she didn't sleep a wink, so she naturally knew what had happened.
"What do you know? Mind your own business!"
Although she said that, she was secretly delighted.
Protecting Brother Dao is one thing, but taking advantage of him is the most important thing.
Dao Ge's generosity is almost equal to that of the entire team in just one instance. Dao Ge is so generous, I really want to stick with him.
Oh no, it seems like the initiative isn't in his hands. Xu Si frowned, sensing that something was amiss.
However, looking at his gleaming car, Xu Si let her be, since it wouldn't do him any harm anyway.
"Jiao Jiao, get in the car, let's go!" Hearing her aunt's call, the little girl reluctantly left Xu Si's car.
"I'll keep harvesting after I rest!" The little girl skipped away.
Xu Si felt a chill run down his spine, but at least he had escaped someone's clutches.
The convoy set off again, but the exhilaration brought by Jiao Jiao's awakening had not yet completely subsided before it was suppressed again by the increasingly heavy silence deep in the swamp.
The "Wax Messenger" drove at the back of the convoy, and Xu Si drove while also taking in the upgraded vehicle.
The heavy feel of the chalky bone armor made the vehicle more stable when driving in the mud, like a real behemoth.
He tried to control the "Melting Wax Messenger" to gently bump into a dead tree that was half-buried in the mud and water.
With a "crack," the withered tree snapped in two. At the moment of impact, Xu Si clearly sensed a subtle fluctuation transmitted from the front of the car to the broken tree trunk, leaving a mark that only he could vaguely perceive—[The Mark of Deep Pain].
"The effect seems to be good." Xu Si nodded in satisfaction.
With this, we have more options for both pursuing and escaping.
Guided by the worker ants, the convoy trudged through the mud with unwavering direction.
With a clear goal in mind, everyone's morale soared, and the car even sped up a bit.
Jiao Jiao would occasionally peek out of the pickup truck window, her fingertips flashing with milky white light, applying a "restore" or "purify" effect to the vans clearing the way ahead or the buses that occasionally got stuck behind them.
Although the effect was slight, it added up and did make the convoy's journey a little smoother.
Unfortunately, Xu Si's vehicle was behind the bus, otherwise she could have continued to fleece customers on the road.
However, she also kept Su Su's instructions in mind and did not overuse her extraordinary power. Instead, she spent most of her time silently experiencing the use of the sequence ability.
The team's lineup has now reached six people, although three of them are novices.
However, the increase in their sense of security and confidence is unprecedented.
In particular, it gave ordinary people hope for awakening.
