598 Taking the First Step (2)
Finding someone? Investigating matters? Senator Ironswim could know any of this through the backend and quickly resolve it for Wu Ming.
“There’s really something trivial,” Xu Jingming said with a smile. “Give me permission to do long-distance teleportation in Combat Generals World.”
“It’s a small matter!” Ironswim nodded. “I’ll set you as the number one boss in the world. You have the highest authority and no missions.”
Typically, in-game, the officials would deliberately arrange for powerhouses to be bosses. They usually had missions.
Destroying the world’s balance! Destroying the world’s layout! Using the game’s authority to earn a large amount of money All of this would result in the authorities arranging for powerhouses to descend upon the players who destroyed the balance.
If the officials were forced into a corner, they could even smite lightning.
What was even more ruthless was to ban them from the world, preventing players from coming online again.
For the entry of someone like Xu Jingming, even the overall person-in-charge had to give him the authorizations.
Xu Jingming nodded and smiled. “Thank you.”
“Then, I’ll take my leave. Hit me up if there’s anything you need,” Ironswim said.
Xu Jingming nodded in satisfaction. “I won’t stand on ceremony with you.”
Ironswim smiled brightly when he heard that. “Then, I won’t disturb you.”
Isn’t it said that Senior Brother Wu Ming keeps people at arm’s length? I feel that he’s quite amiable. Ironswim sighed with emotion when he left. According to the intelligence, Senior Brother Wu Ming focused on his evolutionary path and didn’t participate in all kinds of social circles.
Even on occasions when others met Xu Jingming, he usually only smiled and nodded. It was rare for him to say a word.
Senator Ironswim felt terrific! Senior Brother Wu Ming valued him greatly!
Being able to do long-distance teleportations save me time from traveling. Xu Jingming waved his hand, and a huge Combat Generals World map appeared in front of him. On it were the locations of every powerful general.
It’s indeed convenient with so much authority afforded to me. Let me try the first combat general. Xu Jingming chose one. “Ding Shuo, I choose you!”
******
Pei City, Zhao Nation, one of the seven countries of the Combat Generals World.
The drizzle in Pei City was like smoke, and the scenery was beautiful. The reason why the commoners could live peacefully in Pei City was thanks to the famous combat generalDing Shuo.
Ding Shuo alone could defeat an army! He crushed all dissatisfaction.
A black-robed man arrived in front of Ding Manor.
“Don’t you know what this place is?” The guards in front of the manor immediately went forward and berated. With Ding Manor’s influence, even outsiders would stand at the side door when visiting. Few dared to block the main entrance.
Xu Jingming took a step, and his figure blurred. He then kicked the door, and it exploded!
Xu Jingming carried a spear and walked straight into Ding Manor’s front yard. The front yard was hundreds of meters long and wide, and it was rather vast.
“Ding Shuo, prepare for your death!” Xu Jingming’s voice resounded throughout the mansion, causing the doors and windows to tremble.
Rumble!
A large number of guards surged out of various places and appeared in the front yard. There were more than a thousand of them.
At this moment, a cold man walked out. He wore armor and held a long saber, and he stared at Xu Jingming with ferocity in his eyes like a peerless beast.
As a peak Lv. 8, the will in his eyes was sufficiently terrifying. Weaker cosmic lifeforms wouldn’t even dare look him in the eye.
Xu Jingming looked at him without any change in his expression.
“Who are you?” Ding Shuo stared at Xu Jingming.
“Someone who’s here to kill you,” Xu Jingming replied.
“Hahaha” Ding Shuo laughed loudly. Would he be afraid of death? He came here as a peak Lv. 8 to temper himself. Death only meant that he had encountered stronger tempering; it was a good thing.
He could establish another account and enter again.
“There are many people who want me dead. Who do you think you are?” Ding Shuo’s ferocity surged.
“Kid, you’re very bold,” Xu Jingming said with a smile. “Don’t blame me for bullying you. I only use weapons and techniques; I won’t bully you with my mind.”
Whoosh.
In a blur, Xu Jingming arrived in front of Ding Shuo.
Ding Shuo didn’t panic! Everyone in the Combat Generals World had an ordinary body that limited their strength and speed. Victory here depended on weaponry skills and willpower.
As for the arrogant black-robed spearman in front of him, he indeed didn’t release his willpower to suppress him. He only guarded his mind.
He used his mind and will only to defend, not counterattack.
“How arrogant.” Ding Shuo’s saber instantly whistled as a terrifying will pressed down with the saber beam. This wasn’t just a weapon, but a mental attack.
Clang! Clang! Clang!!
When the weapons collided, Ding Shuobeing at the limit of Lv. 8 only, and he was extremely proficient with weaponscould produce swift and domineering strikes, but he was facing Xu Jingming He was an existence who had been number one in Battle of the Universe’s Apex a long time ago.
Even though his mind had completely focused on defense, Ding Shuo immediately sensed that he had encountered a powerful enemy.
His spearmanship? Ding Shuo was alarmed.
Xu Jingming followed his understanding of Abyssal Void’s figure and fused his mind with the spear! His mind converged in the spear and was not released at all.
His mind chased after the darkness of Abyssal Void’s figure and constantly condensed. This darkness was like a black hole that devoured, restrained, condensed, and underwent a qualitative change
Although he didn’t have a detailed legacy and could only rely on his intuition to figure it out, this was ultimately his first attempt. Xu Jingming clearly had a lot of room for improvement, and his mind and will became more condensed in the spear.
His mind became more condensed, and his perception of the spear became stronger. He seemed to have turned into a spear.
When one is sincere to the spear, they will also be pure with the spear.
Although Xu Jingming saw a high-dimensional direction, his first attempt still left him intoxicated and touched. This was what a spearman truly pursued and was truly obsessed with.
The spear gained life and became even more agile and unpredictable.
They had ordinary bodies, and Ding Shuo clearly mobilized his majestic mind and will to assist him, but Ding Shuo’s saber technique was like a rigid dead object, while Xu Jingming’s spear was filled with endless vitality.
“Pfft.”
After more than ten roundsjust as Xu Jingming found himself immersed in the battlethe spear pierced through Ding Shuo’s chest.
Even with the armor protecting him, three consecutive stabs in the same spot penetrated the armor and killed Ding Shuo.
He disdained piercing my throat and instead tore through my armor to kill me? Ding Shuo found it unbelievable. This was the first time he had lost so miserably in all his years in the Combat Generals World.
Xu Jingming pulled out his spear.
Ding Shuo collapsed to the ground, and blood dyed the ground red.
The surrounding guards were dumbfounded. Ding Shuo, who was more terrifying than an army in their hearts, was dead?
I just started getting a feel for it when this opponent died, Xu Jingming thought to himself. From the looks of it, I have to limit my strength and speed; otherwise, it won’t even be a fight.
Xu Jingming then turned around and left. None of the Ding family guards dared to stop him and allowed the mysterious powerhouse to leave and disappear.
Ding Shuo, the combat general of Pei City in Zhao, was only the beginning.
From this day on, Xu Jingming began challenging combat generals in Combat Generals World and exploring the spearmanship path.
