Chapter 528 - 528 292 Teacher......Goodbye......(4000)_1

Chapter 528: 292 Teacher……Goodbye……(4000)_1 Chapter 528: 292 Teacher……Goodbye……(4000)_1 110th year of the Hong Li Federation Calendar, September 10th, morning.

Under Amos’s leadership, Casio and his companions had a brief tour around the East Sea County. The entire county had six city branches whose prison cages could be drawn upon. With two more from neighbouring counties, it was sufficient to meet their agreed requirements.

The economy in East Sea County was prosperous, with well-developed transportation routes. Whether it be railways or highways, there were plenty of connections between the main cities, thus Casio’s travels were rather swift.

They would travel by transport to the train station in each city, where personnel from the local Black Mechanism branch would pick them up and escort them back to the branch headquarters. Casio would absorb life vibration energy, deal with dark creatures, and then be driven straight back to the train station once finished.

With the Black Mechanism privileges, as long as their shift direction coincided, they could get on any train without tickets. Wrapping up everything in about three or four days, the agreement between Casio and Amos was completed, and the three of them returned to Kula City.

During these few days, Sheng Feinan grew more familiar with various characteristics of the Spiral Eyed Sword, understanding them more deeply.

Feng Liusi’s chest wound, inflicted by Ghost Knife’s attack in the Prism World, gradually healed due to Casio’s provision of ample life vibration energy, which shortened the recovery period originally estimated to last half a year.

As for Casio himself, he gained considerable benefits from devouring all the dark creatures imprisoned in the eight branch cages by the Black Mechanism.

Although the quantity could be a bit lower, the quality was several tiers higher than the norm. The dark creatures jailed in the cages were generally rare and precious, or difficult to deal with.

Thus, the life vibration energy that Casio absorbed during this journey rarely encountered enhanced resistance. Altogether, the cages could roughly increase the progress bar by 6%.

But since a part of it was used for Feng Liusi’s healing,

Casio ultimately gained an increase of 5.3%, which was not too far from the original goal of over 5%.

The Cultivation Stat Bar displayed in the top right of his field of view.

“Demon Idol Secret Martial Art: Qi Chapter 45.6% (Third Layer)”

45.6%+5.3%=50.9%

“Demon Idol Secret Martial Art: Qi Chapter 50.9% (Third Layer)”

The initially robust and plentiful Qi of Southern Dipper Red Vulture Fist subtly harbored countless images, which were becoming more potent. In terms of Qi alone, Casio’s total amount even surpassed that of Sheng Feinan, who has immersed himself in the senior level of fighters for over a decade.

Simply put, Qi no longer was his weakness.

If Casio was compared to a typical veteran fighter according to the Black Mechanism’s standard for a “B” rank fighter, it would be as follows.

Speed: B (45)→B (25)

Strength: B (50)→B (25)

Defense: B (51)→B (25)

Qi: B (51)→B (35)

Skills: B (20)→B (25)

It is evident from the data that Casio’s physique and Qi are nearly twice that of an average veteran fighter. By practicing the Demon Idol Secret Martial Art and using life vibration energy to enhance human Qi, his physical body is also stimulated.

This, coupled with the ongoing evolution and enhancement of the physical body,

significantly boosted his physique in this period.

With both physique and Qi scores around 50, they became Casio’s sharpest advantages in battle.

As for skills, indeed, there seems to be no easy solution.

Casio’s skills level has improved from 15 to 20 due in part to Feng Liusi’s teaching the secret skill Blood Vulture Beak bit by bit during this time. Even so, Casio’s skills still fall short of a typical veteran fighter. After all, this is something that requires time and battle experience. It can’t be achieved overnight.

Casio has had enough fights, yet lacked a bit of experience. Many fighting skills and secret moves cannot be performed perfectly, but fortunately, his Three-stage Breath can compensate for the speed of his moves.

This allows him to avoid exposing weaknesses in skills during fights with powerful enemies and to win by overpowering them with his physical strength and Qi.

According to previously obtained information, fighters in the Secret Martial Arts World are also divided into a few unclear tiers. They are generally classed as:

Newbie Fighters, Veteran Fighters.

Top-notch Fighters, Peak Fighters.

This classification is very broad, and the outcome of a fight between fighters isn’t solely determined by their level. It also depends on the state of the fighters at the time, their determination, resistance between secret martial arts, environmental factors, whether they have hidden cards, and so forth. But excluding some interference factors, these categories do provide some reference to a certain extent.

In the previous battles against the Blood Spirit Association and the Door Organization, Casio’s strength was fully demonstrated. Along with his recent progress, Casio’s combat power in his normal state should be in between that of a veteran fighter and a top-notch fighter. However, when fully unleashed, such as in the Demon Idol state, Three-stage Breath, and Kidney Explosion, Casio’s strength clearly exceeds that threshold and reaches a higher level.

He could even momentarily contend against a healed and rejuvenated Feng Liusi.

Feng Liusi, in his restored youthful state, was already a top-notch fighter. Added to that, his breakthrough in Deathfang Power from the fourth stage to the fifth, and creating the secret skill Blood Vulture Beak, he stood on the threshold between top-notch and peak fighters, confirmed by his victory over Ghost Knife Garoro, a fighter of the same realm, in a duel. This proves that Casio is more than capable of going toe-to-toe with Feng Liusi when he unleashes his full capabilities, attesting to the exemplary strengths Casio currently possesses.

Upon returning to Kula City, they didn’t go to the Tulip Antique Exhibition but instead, went to the Black Mechanism branch to gather intelligence.
