Chapter 160: Legion That Takes the Rap



Chapter 160: Legion That Takes the Rap

Hmm...

Forget it, for the sake of my life, I shall not talk about it.

“What can you teach me?” Jiang Xiao asked after thinking for a while.

Second Last threw the fishbones on the table and asked conceitedly, “What do you want to learn?”

Extremely clear about his future plans, Jiang Xiao shrugged his shoulders and said, “How to use a double-handled sword, dagger, and Freehand Combat. I mainly want to work on my physical fitness and become stronger and fitter as soon as possible, as quickly as possible.”

Jiang Xiao hoped to let a professional draw up a professional training plan for himself.

Second Last said in a hoarse voice, “You’re a doctor.”

Jiang Xiao said, “I know.”

Second Last said, “Apart from the Star Pet, you only have five star slots left. You need to acquire some assistive Star Techniques. There won’t be a slot for output Star Techniques in your Star Map. Even if there are any, they’d be pathetically little. Even if you learn well, your upper limit won’t be too high and you’d still lack the help of the output Star Techniques. You can’t perfect your battle strategy through the use of the combination of other output Star Techniques.”

Jiang Xiao nodded and said, “I know what my role and duties are, and I will not give up.”

Jiang Xiao paused for a while before continuing, “I just want to become stronger and more domineering for now. Well, at least when we’re facing the Ape Ghouls, I’ll get to have the upper hand and not have to become a burden to my teammates by making them protect me.”

Second Last nodded and said in a hoarse voice, “Your body, dagger skills, and freehand combat.”

It seemed that she couldn’t teach him how to use a double-handled sword. However, he understood why and didn’t blame her. After all, it was not a conventional weapon.

However, it didn’t matter. The Silver Quality Xia Family Swordsmanship would allow Jiang Xiao to train according to the techniques and moves given by the internal Star Map. He could also integrate his skills without Xia Yan’s help for the time being.

Since he had already taken the hand-drawn map that Second Last had given to him and chosen to become her apprentice, Jiang Xiao definitely wouldn’t give up the chance to train.

Although Second Last made it sound rather simple and only said, “Your body, dagger skills, and freehand combat,” Jiang Xiao believed that he would definitely learn more than just a few techniques and skills after a private training session with someone on Second Last’s level.

The provincial league was just around the corner. If Second Last could put him through intensive training, it would be wonderful.

“You’re now in the Stardust Stage and you’ve already gotten three of your star slots embellished with Star Techniques. You have one star slot remaining for this stage. I’ll take you to Liaodong Province and help you pick out a defensive Star Technique that will be enough to help you cope with the Beijiang Province High School League.”

Jiang Xiao was speechless.

For defensive Star Techniques, I already have Endurance. Since I already have very few Star Techniques, I’d better refrain from acquiring other Star Techniques that have similar functions.

Besides...

Jiang Xiao thought about it again and said, “I’ve acquired Nostalgia.”

Second Last’s narrow eyes immediately became menacing and she glared at Jiang Xiao with an intense gaze. “Why?”

“Uh...” Jiang Xiao suddenly thought of an all-encompassing answer. “Because I have too few star slots and my parents have already formulated some Star Techniques for me. I chose to acquire the Silver Quality Nostalgia because I had a Gold Quality Nostalgia Star Bead that was given to me by my parents. They said that if it were replaced, the success rate would be greater.”

Second Last was slightly stunned, for she did not expect to hear such an answer.

The Han Family was known for being Wasteland Reclaimers. Although Mr. and Mrs. Han were not soldiers, they strictly followed the rules and regulations and had received plenty of compliments.

For the sake of their children, the two of them actually broke the rules and performed such a dangerous act...

Sigh, parents are all so noble.

The couple went missing in the Dragon Cave. Could it be that they were there to look for high-quality Star Beads for their children too?

Jiang Xiao’s parents, whom he had never met, had once again sacrificed themselves.

Jiang Xiao knew that he could never hide his ability to acquire two Star Techniques in one star slot from Second Last who knew everything and would get to the bottom of the truth.

In order to get a good ranking in the Beijiang Provincial High School League and help Han Jiangxue obtain bonus points for the college entrance examination, Jiang Xiao chose to become Second Last’s apprentice. He had already taken her map. Hence, he had to take on the same missions with her in the future.

So, he couldn’t hide Dawn from her at all.

Jiang Xiao continued, “Fortunately, my Dawn and Nostalgia have become Gold Quality after the rearrangement of the Gold Quality Star Bead.”

Second Last’s eyes glistened and she said, “Each of the first four star slots in your Star Map contains two Star Techniques.”

Jiang Xiao nodded.

Facing Second Last alone, Jiang Xiao finally lit up a dreamy Big Dipper Star Map.

Second Last squinted and stared at the four star slots, two of it were of Gold Quality and the other two, Silver Quality. She also saw the special and rare Big Dipper Star Map that belonged to Jiang Xiao.

She had never seen such a Star Map before in her entire life, nor had she seen anything similar.

Second Last said in a hoarse voice, “You’ve already reached the Nebula Stage.”

Jiang Xiao muttered, “Okay...”

Although he managed to upgrade his Star Power level using his Skill Points, the star patterns and illustrations on the Star Map that were supposed to be full of stardust were not pieced together by beautiful nebula.

After a moment of silence, Second Last said in her hoarse voice, “All of this should be related to your Star Map. You have very few star slots, but your Star Map is very special. The Star Warriors have different characteristics due to the difference in their Star Maps. Maybe, your Star Map can greatly increase the probability of acquiring Star Techniques.”

Second Last sighed and said, “I’m really curious. There’ll be a day that you reach the point of becoming a Star Warrior and by then, you’ll be able to summon something from your Star Map.”

Jiang Xiao was rather overjoyed as his limited star slots and the gift of being able to have two Star Techniques in one star slot seemed to have struck a balance. Second Last didn’t react too vigorously and she managed to make a reasonable analysis.

Special Star Map? Resulted in a special characteristic? What an interesting explanation. Since Second Last has already said that, will I be able to go around swindling others with this reason?

Second Last asked, “Which other Star Beads have your parents left you?”

“Uh...” Jiang Xiao suddenly thought of something and he said, “I’m not too sure. All my Star Beads were given to me by Han Jiangxue.”

Second Last nodded, seemingly deep in thought. “You can ask your sister about it in private. If there’s nothing, we can consider other Star Techniques and Star Beads.”

Second Last was rather straightforward. She continued, “It’s lucky enough for you to be able to find your way home from the upper dimension. Your parents went to the snowfield and the arsenal and managed to make it back alive from the upper dimensions. That’s already very rare. It should be hard for your sister to have another high-quality Star Bead from the upper dimension.”

Jiang Xiao thought to himself in astonishment, My parents, whom I have never met, have really taken the rap this time.

Second Last continued, “If there are any, come home and let me know. You can only absorb them after you get my approval. Your parents may have left these high-quality Star Beads behind, but after all, they didn’t know about your condition. I’ll look out for you.”

Jiang Xiao nodded obediently.

*A .jpg photo of Being obedient.*

Jiang Xiao could tell that Second Last didn’t think that his parents had left behind any other high-quality Star Beads.

In fact, it was a far-fetched idea and a tall order for anyone to find their way home from the upper dimensions of two different Dimensional Spaces.

Second Last continued, “If there aren’t any, let me customize and decide which Star Techniques you shall have in your remaining star slots. I’ll look for the Star Beads for you.”

Jiang Xiao was flabbergasted.

I take you as my master, but you want to make me your boy toy?

In regard to this immoral and disdainful societal practice, Jiang Xiao only had two words for Second Last: “No thanks.”

Unfortunately, Second Last was too domineering and Jiang Xiao felt that he ought to suck up to her and say, “Thank you, master! Long live, Master!”

Of course, Jiang Xiao didn’t say those words, but he did thank her.

Second Last waved her hands casually and said, “You’re already in the Nebula Stage, so you have four more star slots that you can use. However, they’re also the only four you can use. Go to school as per normal and take part in competitions. Give me some time, I shall see what I can find for you.”

Jiang Xiao nodded fervently like a woodpecker.

I’m not asking for much, just let me teleport...
