Chapter 1269
(Unedited)
…
Upon returning to the chaotic camp Xin Ja saw at that time what Lance Grim did. He actually used Eden Vale as a meat shield just to escape.
He was a bit annoyed but did not chase after that guy as she is in deep trouble.
Xin Ja has no time to hide anything at this time as he suddenly takes out his MCAW. He quickly pointed at the head of a demon that is approaching Eden and quickly presses the trigger.
Ptaff!!!
Splat!!!
The head of the demon exploded like a tomato.
He then quickly run to her side and noticed that Eden is half awake.
"Do not fall asleep yet…" Xin Ja quickly takes out a few needles and then pokes her bleeding stomach stopping the bleeding.
He did not have time to rest when he saw a lot more demons coming.
He gritted his teeth and like the wind, his figure dashed from left to right decapitating the demons. He did not let the chance go to split the heads in the air and take their dimension crystals.
The awakened were shocked to see the demons they are fighting suddenly falling down without their heads.
But they are unable to follow Xin Ja's fast movement.
And F-rank and E-rank awakened only have the physical strength of their rank. So they are unable to follow the movement speed of Xin Ja.
But if the D-rank France Roye is here, he would surely be able to follow the fast movement of Xin Ja. This is because… D-rank has the strength and speed of a Ki Master.
With the death of the demons, the battle became easier and Xin Ja was able to take a breather.
He quickly checked the wound on Eden Vale's body and noticed that a few of her organs are wounded. But what surprised him is that Eden Vale is actually a D-rank awakened. But how was he not able to defend against that guy?
Then she noticed that in her blood there is a toxin that is produced by the demons.
"Was she bitten or something?" he muttered as he began to use needles and potions to heal her wounds.
Xin Ja was busy healing her while the rest of the team encircle the two to protect them.
"How is the leader? How is she?" James Reeve asked showing a hint of concern in his eyes.
"She is fine… but her wound is a bit deep, plus she seems to be poisoned…" Xin Ja replied without stopping his treatment.
"Poisoned? Ah… I knew something is wrong. When she was fighting that unihorn in the ruins, I think she was wounded at that time…" Marcus Gray interjected.
"Damn this woman… Does she think she is that strong and is afraid to rely on her teammates?" James scolded.
"James… you goy guts!" suddenly Eden said in a low and weak voice.
"Ah, leader! Are you okay now?!" the two suddenly exclaimed.
"No, she is not… You should not move… I need to heal the rest of your wounds internal wounds…" Xin Ja then continues to drip the healing potion on the needle as it is applied to her wounded inner organs.
Soon her inner organs have been closed and Xin Ja also closed her wound.
"There… You are good… Luckily your inner organs were not wounded that heavily… If not then you needed at least 3 days of rest…"
"You are a healer? No… that is impossible. You're only an F-rank…" she muttered while observing Xin Ja's face.
"I'm no healer, I'm just an amnesiac guy who seems to know how to concoct and use medicine…" Xin Ja said with a smile.
The commotion around them died down, and Xin Ja quickly rescued the rest of the wounded in the camp. He did not have time to think about anything as he seems to be more worried about those injured than concealing his own skills.
After he was able to heal the rest, he noticed that from afar, France Roye is still fighting that giant demon.
His speed is really fast and he seems to be a match for the demon.
Suddenly, a loud sound erupted from afar and the head of the demon exploded.
France Roye has already retreated a few distances as the lifeless body of the demon fell to the ground.
He then showed a 'thumbs up' as if trying to thank someone from afar.
…
The next day…
France approached Xin Ja and patted his shoulder.
"Not only are you good in cooking, but also in healing… Damn, I'm now getting curious about you… I heard that you are newly awakened…"
"I seem to know how to make medicine and also cook. But I don't know my own name…" Xin Ja shrugged his shoulder.
"Hmm… Memory reflex… Summers eh? Oh, wait a minute… Adam Summers, don't tell me you are that…"
Xin Ja furrowed his brow when he noticed that France actually knew the name Adam Summers.
"My man… your name is a household name in the upper society… They would say, don't be like that Adam Summers… or are you going to be a waste like that Adam Summers?... Hahaha… I think something is wrong with some of your family members. Why would they slander one of their own? Are they fools?"
France joking said.
But stopped when he noticed Xin Ja seem to be thinking deeply.
"I'm sorry… I didn't mean to do that. Anyway, thank you for what you did in the camp! See you!" he patted Xin Ja's back and then left.
Xin Ja just shook his head and chuckled silently.
The man has a point though… the Summers are really stupid for airing their own dirty laundry in public.
Some of the groups decided to return but some who are still intact decided to continue hunting that day and includes Xin Ja's team.
Xin Ja now has active participation in the hunt. Even though he is only an E-rank the group became relaxed as they can now leave their back on him.
He was the one in charge of the safety of the porters and the collectors.
The team then came back at noon and they have a fairly good haul returning to camp.
That night, Xin Ja did not rest as he became the doctor of the camp healing those that were wounded in the hunt.
Xin Ja did not receive the money offered to him. Instead, he decided to accept demon bones of any kind.
The reason for this is that he wanted to try and use the sturdy demon bones that belong to strong demons.
After working for the whole day, Xin Ja asked if he could rest inside the armored vehicle. France Roye gives him permission as he knew that the guy has worked his ass off.
Inside the armored vehicle, Xin Ja began refining the demon bones and turning them into weapons.
He created a modified weapon, using Ki energy as the propellant. He designed it to look like an air pump rifle.
That night when everyone is resting, Xin Ja walked out of the armored vehicle and decide to test out his new weapon.
As he walks towards the bushes and then climbs up a tree, then scanned the area a few distances from him.
"This is a good place to test this thing out…" he muttered.
"Test what now?" suddenly someone said beside him.
Xin Ja almost jump in fright when he saw the grinning face of France Roye.
"Hehe… I knew you are making something inside the vehicle…" he said with a grin.
"It's just a rifle…" Xin Ja said with a slightly complaining tone.
"You know that these kinds of things will create too much noise and would give us trouble, right?" France suddenly scolded but his face is showing a sneer.
"Then how should I test it then…" Xin Ja asked.
France frowned then suddenly got an idea.
He grabbed Xin Ja's collar and then quickly jumps up. Xin Ja felt like he is some kind of cat that is being dragged by its mother as they go to someplace.
The two traveled towards the ruined town and then reached a tall building a fair distance from the campsite.
France Roye scaled the building easily and soon the two of them are now standing on the roof.
"You can try your weapon here…" he suddenly said while looking at the ground.
"Really? Thank you…" Xin Ja excitedly said with a big smile on his face.
As he turns to the side and saw a demon from afar, he excitedly pointed the rifle made of some iron and demon bone.
France Roye felt a bit amused when he looks at the weapon that looks like a hunting rifle without a scope.
When the young man positioned himself and was ready to shoot, he could not help but shake his head.
"If you attracted that demon without killing it, we will both be in trouble… That thing is at least D-rank and a defensive type at that…" France reminded Xin Ja.
But the corner of Xin Ja's mouth curved.
He knew that France is near him and is following at that time.
And this is part of his plan. How could he miss that chance to hunt using a rifle made from this world?
"Cover your ears! This is going to be loud!" Xin Ja suddenly said as he squeezes the trigger.
