Stronger with More Jobs

Chapter 635 - 280: Veterans’ Tavern

Fang Qingyu was momentarily stunned upon listening.

After a few seconds of silence, his calm gaze fell on Jiang Wei’s slightly lowered side face.

His voice was very light, as if discussing a trivial matter: "How did they come over? Did they come specifically for you from another dimension, then seek you out in this world? Or did they come in some other form to attack you?"

There was no trace of fear or impatience in his tone, only a near-homely peace.

This left Jiang Wei momentarily stunned.

She slowly raised her head, her ruby-like eyes meeting Fang Qingyu’s calm as water gaze.

Clearly reflecting unwavering steadiness.

Seemingly infected by this calmness, Jiang Wei’s tense shoulders slightly relaxed, and she responded softly, her voice carrying a hint of uncertain perplexity:

"I don’t know exactly how they come... I only know that every time, they come to me at a specific point in time, as if... it’s destined."

"But before and after they come to my side, I don’t remember any related things. It’s like part of my memory has been wiped, leaving only an inescapable sense of destiny..."

Upon hearing this, Fang Qingyu nodded thoughtfully.

There was no doubt or panic on his face, instead, he pulled out a reassuring smile: "Alright, I understand."

These simple words contained a power far exceeding thousands of words, like an invisible mountain instantly calming the unrest and confusion in Jiang Wei’s heart.

Then, Fang Qingyu stood up and walked toward Jiang Wei.

He extended his hand, palm up, with a gentle smile on his face: "Let’s go, rest up. Your body has just adapted, and your mind needs to relax. Don’t think too much, the sky won’t fall."

Jiang Wei lifted her head, looking into Fang Qingyu’s deep yet immensely steady eyes, as if finding an anchor point after drifting for long.

She gently replied with a soft "Mm," silently extending her long and fair yet slightly unsure hand.

Fang Qingyu firmly held it, slowly pulling her up from the bench.

The two left the spacious underground training ground one after the other.

Fang Qingyu escorted Jiang Wei back to her room, watching her close the door.

Only then did he turn back to his own room.

The moment the door closed, the reassuring steadiness on his face vanished instantly, replaced by furrowed brows and an inextricable heaviness in his eyes.

"God..."

Fang Qingyu whispered silently, leaning against the cold alloy door panel.

Each word carried a heavy pressure.

In every life of Jiang Wei, with her monstrous potential, she couldn’t grow up smoothly and was killed in childhood.

What does this mean?

It means those hunting her have power of at least Tier Four!

Or even potentially an existence above Tier Four.

Otherwise, there is no way to explain how they could cross world barriers precisely and assassinate her repeatedly before she gained adequate self-protection power.

This level of enemy, for Fang Qingyu now, is surely not on the same level.

The relaxed demeanor shown before Jiang Wei was just to reassure her.

After all, that was a previous promise and responsibility.

But thinking is one thing.

How to achieve it is the biggest challenge before him.

Currently, there are two paths.

Fang Qingyu walked to the window, looking at the never-extinguishing lights of Spine City outside.

The first path.

Balanced development, breaking limits in both martial arts and the Patrol System.

Martial Artist System and Patrol System, both advancing to Tier Three.

At that time, with the robust body of a Martial Sect at the peak of Tier Three, combined with the Space Control of a Tier Three Realm Patrol.

And further pairing with the Shenxiao Envoy’s absolute control over Thunder with its four-star divine profession.

When the three are united.

It might not be impossible to erupt with terrifying battle power that matches or even suppresses early Tier Four.

This path has solid foundations and great potential but requires immense resource investment and time accumulation.

The second path is extreme enhancement, betting everything on Shenxiao Envoy.

Quickly reset a main profession slot.

Set Shenxiao Envoy as the Main Profession.

Then awaken Shenxiao Envoy’s exclusive Talent, investing all resources into this Divine Profession.

Inferring Core Skills and Killing Techniques regardless of cost, enhancing Shenxiao Authority Level, forcefully raising battle power to Tier Four level in the shortest time.

This path might yield faster results.

But it’s somewhat extreme.

"Or... have it all?"

A flicker of madness sparkled in Fang Qingyu’s eyes.

Balance and extremity are not entirely opposed.

If he can gather enough vast resources, he can maintain progress in the Shenxiao Envoy’s core while further advancing the Martial Artist System’s breakthroughs.

Moving both fronts forward, ultimately achieving a final explosive unification of the three systems.

"The key... lies in resources!"

Fang Qingyu’s gaze turned fiercely passionate.

If he could, as during the hunt for Jiang Taixuan, have the opportunity to freely charge and collect Skill Points within the Destiny Ghost Army...

Those vast points would be enough to support him in pushing both paths forward simultaneously.

Whether it works or not...

He would only know after formal duty begins.

...

In the coming days.

The five members of Fang Qingyu’s squad completely settled down, honing and improving in the underground training ground of their courtyard.

Jiang Wei focused on adapting to her new body.

Repeating through the surging yet slightly raw Power within her body.

Fang Qingyu immersed himself in the insights of the Shenxiao Envoy profession and the consolidation of the Martial Artist System.

Blending the newly enhanced Power seamlessly.

Occasionally, Shikong and Liu Hanyan would visit with their respective team members, exchanging training insights and sharing some front-line intelligence from Abyss Hunting, creating a harmonious atmosphere.

Until the morning of the sixth day.
