“Oh, I forgot to tell you that your sister has been calling daily to ask about you. You’d better think of an apology.” Fang Rou grinned.
Xiang Ning cried, “I’m done for! I shouldn’t have let that Wang Han go.”
“Why?”
“I should’ve beaten him up first. If it weren’t for him, my little sister wouldn’t have known about it.”
Fang Rou was speechless.
Of course, he was joking, but Xiang Ning was in a tight spot. He wasn’t afraid of anyone, even fighting a Kaiser Aurumsaur head-on, but he was scared of worrying his sister. He fished out his phone, glanced at it, put it down, picked it back up, then put it down again. Fang Rou, unable to watch, took out her own phone and dialed Xiang Xiaoyu’s number.
Xiang Ning wanted to say something but swallowed his words.
Very soon, the call went through. They heard a panicked voice, “Sister Fang Rou, how’s my brother?”
“Don’t worry, it’s good news. He’s regained consciousness and is undergoing routine examination by the doctors. He’ll call you later, or you can call him,” Fang Rou said with a smile.
“Alright, thank you Sister Fang Rou!” Xiang Xiaoyu was obviously happy to hear that he was fine.
After hanging up, Fang Rou mischievously winked at him, then left. Xiang Ning sighed as he watched her leave. He wouldn’t be able to escape this one! He had no choice but to take out his phone. He stared at it for two minutes, unable to make the call, when Xiaoyu’s call arrived.
“Big brother, how are you?”
“I’m fine, I just fainted because of overexertion. There’s nothing wrong with me.” He tried his best to keep his tone calm.
“Really?”
“Yes.”
There was a lot of rustling. Someone had snatched Xiaoyu’s phone and he could hear her whining from the other end.
“Is it Senior Xiang Ning? Chen Zixin here! Don’t worry, I’ve been keeping your sister company these days. Don’t worry about her, go on killing the beasts. She’s famous in school now, everyone’s so proud of you!” Chen Zixin was cheerful as ever.
Xiang Ning knew that there were many things unsaid between himself and his little sister. They both knew it. If the conversation had carried on, it would have been very awkward. Thus, Chen Zixin’s interruption was a good thing.
“Thank you, for taking the trouble to keep her company.”
“Hehe, it’s nothing.”
In the end, Xiang Xiaoyu and Xiang Ning chatted a little and ended the call. She didn’t mention his injury, but did nag him several times, as if she was the older sibling.
He put the phone down and looked out the window, exhaling slightly. It was time to train his body. Before receiving the system, he had mined every day and had a strong physique. Since he couldn’t afford to eat much, he looked weak and thin, but he had actually built a far stronger foundation than his peers. But now he felt like it still wasn’t enough. During the battle, he had felt like his body could no longer catch up with his mind.
......
Fang Rou, who had just left the ward, bumped into someone. She stumbled two steps back and hurriedly apologized, though the other person did not mind. He gasped, “Miss Fang, why are you here?”
“Huh?” She looked up. “You… you’re Brother Yang! What happened to you? Your injuries look serious! Weren’t you supposed to be with my brother?”

The man before her was a member of Fang Hao’s squad. He was clad in a hospital gown, his face ghostly pale.
When he heard Fang Rou, he hung his head, not knowing what to say.
Noticing that something was wrong, she questioned, “Tell me what happened! Where’s my brother?!”
“Uh… alright, I’ll tell you, but please be mentally prepared.”
Five minutes later, she collapsed outside the wall, her eyes devoid of hope. Tears welled up, then several drops started rolling down her cheeks.
“Miss, Miss, Old Zhou is protecting Young Master Fang. He’ll be safe. We’ve already recruited a rescue team, which will be leaving this afternoon.”
“Mm, I’m fine. Go rest, I want to be alone.”
“Uh… alright.”
A month ago, Fang Hao’s squad had joined a much stronger team made up of twenty people. They left from Fortress Three with a clear target: the Octoviolet Silversnake in the Great Blue River!
There was no time to waste, because the beast hordes had grown stronger and much larger over the past few months. The death count at the fortresses was steadily rising, and if they dragged things out any longer, it would be a catastrophe.
…...
Turning the clock back four days, the day Xiang Ning and the rest first arrived at the fortress, Fortress Three wasn’t the only fortress under attack. It was the same in the other major fortresses. That was a rare occurrence.
Anyone who had insider information would be able to guess that the squad had started their work.
Within a small city located on a branch of the Great Blue River, the twenty-plus-person squad led by Fang Hao finally found the hiding spot of the Octoviolet Silversnake.
“Old Zhou, according to the investigation and analysis during the past few days, this underground car park should be the Octoviolet Silversnake’s lair.”
“Yes, it’s oddly quiet in this area. Look at this path along the hill, it’s obviously been flattened by something. I think this is it.” Old Zhou nodded.
“Alright. If that’s the case, we’ll separate according to our previous plans. Tai, bring two people with you to scout. Yang, take ten people with you to guard the area. Us and Old Zhou will be in the building above the car park. Once you give us the green light, everyone will immediately surround and kill it!”
“Yes, sir!”
It was a good plan, but everyone had greatly underestimated the cautiousness of the Octoviolet Silversnake. When Tai’s trio entered the car park, they stepped on some Tyrant Spider webbing. It was common knowledge that spiders were sensitive to movements in their webs, including tiny vibrations. So of course it would detect the movements of three muscular martial artists!
The entire car park descended into chaos in an instant. The shrill hisses of Tyrant Spiders echoed out while the Octoviolet Silversnake woke from its deep slumber. Upon receiving the intruder alert, there was a malicious glint in its eye and it hissed so loud it could be heard five kilometers away.
Fang Hao, who had just arrived in the building above the car park, was shaken. “No, we’ve been discovered! Attack now!” He immediately made the decision. They had spent more than a month looking for this nest; if they let it escape today, they didn’t know how long it would take to find its next hiding spot!
And in the meantime, how many more humans would die?
“Kill it at all costs!”
Fang Hao and Old Zhou took one look at each other, then charged ahead. Sounds of battle rang across the underground car park. Yang, who was keeping watch, felt his heart pounding in his throat. He wanted to help them, but… there were many beasts charging at them from the outside.
