Chapter 19

After obtaining the third training avatar, Lin Xuan found a safe place to rest.

Eight hours later.

[Current Area: Tree King Sea First Region (300 general coin per minute, 1,500 experience points per minute)]

[Shrouding Frost Tree has been training for 8 hours and has reached the upper limit of its training time. Obtained 480,000 general coins, 2,400,000 experience points, 17 Second Realm equipment, 12 skill books, 5 runes, 2 Shriek Fruits, 3 Fire Demon Cores, 1 Poison Demon Core, and 1 Thunder Demon Core. Do you wish to collect?]

Lin Xuan muttered the word “collect” and a large pile of items appeared in his consciousness space.

The 17 Second Realm equipment were all white ordinary grade and could be directly smelted.

In the 12 skill books, 4 was an intermediate-level Fire Resistance, 3 was an intermediate-level Lightning Resistance, and the remaining 5 were rare blue grade Shrouding Frost Wall.

Shrouding Frost Wall was a defensive skill similar to Iron Wall, but it provided high physical resistance and frost resistance.

This was very useful for Lin Xuan. He immediately learned it and upgraded it.

The five runes were all of white ordinary grade and could be smelted.

Lastly, there were the Shriek Fruits, Fire Demon Cores, Lightning Demon Cores, and Poison Demon Cores. These were the attribute items of the Tree King’s Sea. They could increase one’s dodging ability by 1%, fire resistance by 1%, lightning resistance by 1%, and poison resistance by 1%.

These four items had all been dropped after the corresponding ferocious tree died. Of course, the drop rate was not high.

Even with Lin Xuan’s training avatar, he had only obtained this much after 8 hours.

However, his greatest advantage was that he did not need to rest and could train continuously. It was already not bad for ordinary wasteland reclaimers to be able to rest after working for four to five hours.

After all, this was a mystic realm filled with danger. The wasteland reclaimers had to be tense at all times and could easily feel tired.

Just like that, two days later.

After two days of battle, his training avatar, Shrouding Frost Tree, had advanced from the level two to level three of the Second Realm.

The five attribute items: the Shriek Fruit, the Fire Demon Core, the Thunder Demon Core, the Poison Demon Core, and the Ice Demon Core were all swiped clean by Lin Xuan. He had already eaten 10 of them, and there were even more than 10 more in his consciousness space.

“Shush, it’s time to return to the Germinal Organization to rest. It’s quite tiring to hang out here every day.”

Lin Xuan stretched his back and walked out of this region.

As soon as he came out, he bumped into a figure.

The other party was dressed in a smart suit with a high ponytail and some baby fat on her face. It was the overseer of District C of the Germinal Organization, Lu Luo.

Lin Xuan almost shouted out Sister Lu subconsciously, but he immediately reacted. His current identity was “Shield Ghost”.

“Shield Ghost?” Lu Luo was very surprised.

Many people were looking for this Shield Ghost.

Ever since people heard about the news of Shield Ghost’s battle record, he had started to become a legend. After all, he had consecutively defeated experienced mystic realm kings and mystic realm kings by himself.

In the past few months, the name “Shield Ghost” had become increasingly popular in East Lake City.

What was even more exciting was that Shield Ghost was not a wasteland reclaimer of the Germinal Organization, but a true lone wolf!

He did not rely on the information and risk-taking techniques provided by the Germinal Organization and completely relied on himself to defeat a large number of mystic realm kings. This made countless people ashamed!

However, from this point of view, Shield Ghost’s lone wolf dentity had also triggered some people in the Germinal Organization. To be precise, Manager Number Three was dissatisfied.

If even a lone wolf was so powerful, didn’t that prove how useless the Germinal Organization was?

The Germinal Organization had so many resources and resources, but there had never been a wasteland reclaimer as powerful as Shield Ghost. Wasn’t this shameful?

Lu Luo had a good impression of self-reliant people like Shield Ghost. However, she did not like to reveal her true feelings.

The two of them met and brushed past each other.

With her back facing him, Lu Luo said calmly, “You’re not enemies with the Germinal Organization, but some of the wasteland reclaimers in the Germinal Organization are already prepared to find trouble with you.”

“They want to capture you and expose your true identity or force you to join the Germinal Organization. Be careful.”

With that said, Lu Luo continued to kill the ferocious trees and search for attribute items.

Lin Xuan was stunned and chuckled.

From the looks of it, Lu Luo and the Germinal Organization were not on the same page. She actually gave friendly advice to this “lone wolf”.

“Catch me? They’re overestimating themselves.”

Lin Xuan looked at his attributes, skills, and equipment and was filled with confidence.

Although he was only at level one of the Second Realm now, he could already compete with a level one Third Realm martial artist.

Among the wasteland reclaimers of the Germinal Organization, there were even pitifully few Second Realm martial artists. Even Third Realm martial artists could be overseers. How could these people lower themselves and try to catch him personally?

At the same time, at the safety station of the ninth region of the King Tree Sea.

Three rank two wasteland reclaimers from District D arrived together.

District D’s Overseer had received Manager Number Three’s order to mobilize his men to attack and suppress the so-called legendary Shield Ghost.

The stronger Shield Ghost was, the more useless the Germinal Organization would seem.

He would either join the Germinal Organization or… die!

The tall and thin wasteland reclaimer said, “Two days ago, someone saw Shield Ghost appear at the safe station in the ninth region of the Tree King Sea. After that, he hasn’t returned to the safe station.”

The fat wasteland reclaimer said, “We don’t have to go out and search. As long as we wait here, he will definitely return to the safety station.”

The one-eyed wasteland reclaimer said, “The three of us are enough to capture him alive.”

Soon, a fully-armored figure appeared in their eyes.

The ghost mask, the large black shield, and the full-body armor were all the same. Although he had changed a few pieces of equipment, their auras were still the same as before. Ordinary martial artists were completely unable to emit his aura.

The wasteland reclaimer expert said, “That’s him. We can’t let him enter the safety station.”

The three of them immediately rushed out and blocked Lin Xuan’s path.

The atmosphere instantly became tense.

The wasteland reclaimers in the safety station suddenly stood up and stretched their necks to look outside.

“I remember those three. They’re the wasteland reclaimers from District D. Do they have a conflict with Shield Ghost?”

“I’m afraid it’s not a conflict, but… an order from the higher-ups.”

“Sigh, lone wolves are always being suppressed. This isn’t the first time. Shield Ghost is a true black horse that had suddenly appeared. In the end, he still has to submit to a big organization like the Germinal Organization.”

Further away, Lu Luo was also about to return to the safety station. Her luck was not good. This time, she only obtained two Shriek Fruits and did not obtain any other attribute items.

As soon as she arrived at the entrance of the safety station, she saw a tense scene.

Lu Luo shook her head. “He still bumped into them… Wait, no, they should have been waiting for Shield Ghost here long ago.”

She despised such behavior.

She had always believed that the Germinal Organization should increase the benefits of the wasteland reclaimers and attract more lone wolf members instead of suppressing these lone wolves who relied on their own efforts.

However, the order was given by Manager Number Three. As an Overseer, she could not say anything.

“I can’t help him much. However, if the three wasteland reclaimers in District D still refuse to let him off after defeating Shield Ghost and force him to join the Germinal Organization, I will have to stop them.”

Lu Luo thought to herself.

District D’s overseer was backed by Manager Number Three.

However, she was also backed by Manager Number Two. Manager Number Two shared her view and had always disliked violence.

At that time, even if the overseer of District D complained, Manager Number Two would still be able to protect her.
