628: One Month of Improvement

One Month of Improvement

Shang Yang Galaxy Stationing Grounds.

Daphne, Xuan Yuji, and Louisa were watching the screen on the couch of a hotel. Their expressions were extremely strange. Xuan Yuji gritted her teeth. "Old Luo and his group are too lucky."

Daphne rubbed her head in disbelief. "Is Lu Ze already this powerful? That's a level-five planetary state Zhihuo Bird's egg…"

Xuan Yuji asked, "Should we get another mission now?"

Lousia shook her head. "You guys haven't recovered yet. Let's rest for a few days."

Daphne frowned. "But if this continues, Luo and the others would surpass us."

Lousia said adamantly, "Regardless of whether they can surpass us, it's too dangerous to accept a mission now. If you're not in your prime, anything can happen. We won't be as lucky as last time every time."

Daphne and Xuan Yuji nodded.

"Then, let's rest for a few more days. How about we go to planet Zhihuo too and see what mission Luo and the rest are doing?"

"Sure, let's go and see."

…

Two days later, the New Dawn came to the stationing grounds.

Many people looked over as soon as Lu Ze's group got off the ship. They were quite famous since Lu Ze held off dark metal demons all by himself.

They took the unconscious Tiger Tail Thief to the stationing grounds. They wanted the thief to walk by himself, but perhaps they played with him too much. He was so injured that he could barely walk.

People started discussing things. "That's Lu Ze and his team. Who is that alien?"

"I don't know, it doesn't seem like a blade demon."

"It's probably their mission. It's only been two days, and they finished another mission?"

"They are really insane. Soon, they would probably be leaving the controlled region."

…

In the mission hall, Lu Ze and the girls proceeded to the second floor.

They saw three familiar figures here already. It was Mo Xie, Chi Xiaomo, and Bernie. They just finished handing in their missions and were planning to go downstairs.

They got dazed after seeing Lu Ze and the rest.

Mo Xie smiled. "Lu Ze, I thought you were at the Zhihuo System. Why did you come back?"

Lu Ze smiled. "Came back to hand in a mission." He then pointed at the Tiger Tail Thief.

Chi Xiaomo asked curiously, "Wanted mission?"

Nangong Jing nodded. "Yes, the Tiger Tail Thief. We didn't expect to be so lucky to encounter him."

If they didn't encounter this thief, they would still be looking for the blade demons.

Mo Xie and their eyes narrowed. Bernie rubbed his stiff face. "The level-three planetary state one?"

Lu Ze looked at Bernie in surprise. "Yes, so you guys know."

…

They looked through all the planetary state missions in order to find one suitable for them. Of course, they had an impression of this thief.

Just what did the thief go through to look like this?

Mo Xie smiled awkwardly. "You guys go hand in your mission first. We'll wait for you."

They wanted to chat with Lu Ze and the girls too.

Lu Ze took the thief in and handed it to the workers there. As for the treasures the thief stole, all that belonged to the humans were returned. Lu Ze kept the rest himself.

As such, they received 1500 Shenwu merit points for the mission. Then, they went downstairs with Mo Xie's group. As soon as they left the mission hall, they saw three more familiar faces. It was Daphne's group.

Nangong Jing grinned. "Daphne, what are you doing here?"

Daphne rolled her eyes and spoke with envy. "It's quite satisfying for you guys that you're so strong. We almost died in the last mission."

Nangong Jing smiled. "It's very hard for us too. We even encountered a level-four planetary state blade demon. We almost got killed."

The others were dumbfounded. They thought with Lu Ze's group's power, they would be able to accomplish missions without difficulty.

It seemed everyone didn't have it easy. Although Nangong Jing's group was stronger, they took more dangerous missions.

The group found a place to chat.

These two groups found missions that fitted them, but it was different from Luo Bingqing's situation. Luo Bingqing's mission was inside the stationed ground. It was safe. Their missions, on the other hand, were located outside.

They were very envious after hearing about Luo Bingqing's mission. They wanted to go over too.

The group chatted for a while and split off. Lu Ze and the girls recycled the thief's treasures. It was another 5000 Shenwu merit points.

They felt rather good. Just these three missions gave them 30,000 Shenwu merit points.

They went back to the hotel and started looking for a new suitable mission.

…

A month later, in the hotel, Lu Ze was sitting on the bed with blood lightning flickering around him.

His chi surged, forming ripples in the air. Then, he opened his eyes and reached out his hand. Blood lightning swirled around his fingers.

His hair and eyes were still black, not red.

After this long, Lu Ze finally completely mastered the blood lightning god art. Now, he could use blood lightning without any side effects.

He went out of the room. Nangong Jing and Qiuyue Hesha were watching the news on the couch while Lin Ling was cooking.

Qiuyue Hesha smiled. "Little brother Lu Ze, did you get the mission reward?"

Lu Ze checked his phone and replied, "Yes, 2000 Shenwu merit points."

Nangong Jing spoke, "In that case, we're just 2000 Shenwu merit points away from the first set of Martial God Set."

During the past month, they had been accepting ordinary missions, and they didn't give many rewards. They only got 10,000 Shenwu merit points within a month.

Qiuyue Hesha nodded. "Then, let's buy one first and give it to little brother Lu Ze."

Lu Ze felt dazed. "Aren't we buying our own?"

Nangong Jing laughed. "There's still three months and a half before we go back. The stronger we got, the more rewards we will earn. We'll all get one."

Lu Ze felt great. "I wonder how good the set is?"0

If it would provide a huge improvement, he might be able to catch up to the two. Then, he would be able to…

During this month, Nangong Jing and Qiuyue Hesha finally reached level two of the planetary state. This was three months after they reached the planetary state.

Their combat power finally reached level four of the planetary state. If they teamed up, ordinary level-four planetary states would be no match for them. 

Lin Ling was almost a level-five mortal evolution state. Her spirit eye god art also grew stronger. Her god art had been rather useful in missions. For a few missions, she earned the most.

Lu Ze also reached level six of the mortal evolution state and fully mastered blood lightning. If he wore combat armor, he wouldn't be weak, even against a level-three planetary state.

Of course, if he could get the Martial God Set, his combat power might reach level four of the planetary state.
