The teenager said,

You’re playing with fire!

The young man who Played with Fire, who was on the mind of the other team leaders, was lying on his bed in the temporary room and studying his Diamond Star technique.

To be honest, Jiang Xiao really tried to change the star chart of the thousand-hand Guanyin, but the result was ... He had really transmogrified it, but it was just a superficial transmogrification and a disguise. He had not really obtained a new Star map.

Jiang Xiao tried to use the three-headed and six-armed Nezha star map again, but he still failed.

It was easy to change the appearance of a star map if one imagined it out of thin air, but it seemed difficult to create a real one.

.....

Jiang Xiao couldn’t help but wonder if he needed to have a thorough understanding of the star map in order to create it. And not just do whatever he wanted?

If that was the case, it would be really troublesome. Jiang Xiao knew nothing about star maps, at least not the Big Dipper.

Could it be that he had to wait until the starry sea stage, according to the rules of the star martial world, and be forcibly enlightened before he could create the star map he wanted?

Or was he too demanding on the star map?

If he wanted to conjure a single milk bottle star map, perhaps he could succeed easily?

Jiang Xiao curled up on the bed and thought to himself. His and Gu Shi ‘an’s beds were on the west side. In the huge room, there were four tables in the middle with daily necessities and even a sandbox on them. Xia Yan and Han Jiangxue’s beds were on the east side.

Compared to the previous missions and battlefields that Jiang Xiao had been on, the logistics of this mission was undoubtedly much better.

There was even a bathroom in this temporary room. Although the installation was simple, it was already very difficult to take a bath.

Xia Yan and Han Jiangxue had already washed up and were lying on the bed, chatting about something.

Gu Shi ‘an’s bed was empty. At this moment, he was outside the temporary house in a standard “Asian squat” posture with a cigarette in his mouth. He looked at the clean and tidy military camp and waved at the patrolling soldiers from time to time.

To Gu Shi ‘an’s surprise, half of the box of cigarettes was gone in the time it took to smoke one cigarette ...

The Jindalai soldier really didn’t treat him as an outsider, he really wanted a cigarette!

Moreover, she spoke Chinese even more fluently than Gu Shi ‘an, and Gu Shi’ an couldn’t even pretend that he didn’t understand her ...

Gu Shi ‘an managed to build a relationship with the patrolling soldiers in the camp, which was an unexpected gain. No matter which team Jiang Xiao was in, he would always be the “team socialite.” He didn’t expect Gu Shi’ an to suddenly rise up and snatch the title.

They ate well, slept well, managed their interpersonal relationships well, and Jindalai’s logistics support was even better. All of these were the reasons why team Seven’s record was so good!

From the 25th to the 27th of October, in these short three days, team seven destroyed an average of nine celestial flower spaces a day, leading the wasteland reclaimers.

It couldn’t be helped. On the first day, due to their late arrival at the battlefield, everyone only had one afternoon, which indeed pulled down the average.

Even though there was no ranking, the team was well aware of the results.

Perhaps Jiang Xiao’s team wouldn’t be able to defeat the other party if they were to form a team. However, in terms of efficiency in finding and destroying the dimensional space, the team of apprentices wouldn’t be afraid of any team.

Han Jiangxue’s Black space teleportation, Jiang Xiao’s space-time gap, and Xia Yan’s domain tears and the blade of death were all the best for searching and traveling.

Jiang Xiao didn’t even have time to study and understand diamond: Earth Light, diamond: star concealment, and diamond: secondary image. In his internal star map, the three star techniques had already reached diamond quality level 4 (2000/10000). [Note: brass: 1, silver: 10, gold: 100, Platinum: 1000, diamond: 10000]

For diamond quality star techniques, 1000 points of data would be added for every Platinum Star bead absorbed, and it would take every 10 Platinum Star beads to upgrade by one small level. At this moment, Jiang Xiao’s three diamond Star techniques were almost halfway done. He was looking forward to seeing what quality was above diamonds.

Under Jiang Xiao’s leadership, team seven got up at 6 a.m. And rushed to the battlefield at 7 a.m. Before returning for lunch and an afternoon nap. They then continued to fight in the dimensional space in the afternoon and returned to the camp before 5 p.m.

It was an extremely serious and grim combat mission, but Jiang Xiao actually made it seem like he was going to clock in and get to work. He would be working from seven to five in the morning, and he even had an afternoon break ...

Due to the fact that it was almost November, the sky turned dark earlier and faster. Jiang Xiao didn’t really advocate fighting at night. Although it was always Sunny in the celestial flower dimensional space, the external environment would still have a normal cycle of day and night.

People always said that it was easy to encounter ghosts if one walked too much at night.

Jiang Xiao didn’t expect to encounter a ghost on the third day!

At midnight on the 27th of October, close to 24:00 PM.

A soft sound suddenly came from the wooden door.

Gu Shi ‘an, who was the closest to the door, opened his eyes abruptly. The sound was soft, but it was enough to wake him up.

“Thump! Thump! Dong!”

The knocking became louder, which made Gu Shi ‘an feel a little more at ease. If they continued knocking, it would not be a sneak attack.

At the same time, Xia Yan also opened her eyes and sat up abruptly. She and Gu Shi ‘an looked at each other and got up to wake their companions.

Crack, crack ...

This time, it wasn’t a knock, but a lock. However, the intruder probably wasn’t using a key. It was more like he was using a special object to open the lock.

Gu Shi ‘an strode over while Xia Yan condensed a giant sword in her hand and followed after him in her slippers.

Gu Shi ‘an suddenly opened the door, only to see a young jindalais soldier holding a paper clip in his hand, looking up at Gu Shi’ an in a daze.

Gu Shi ‘an carried the young jindalais soldier in like he was carrying a little chick.

Xia Yan stuck her head out and looked around to see that the tent was empty and silent in the dark. She closed the door and turned around, only to see Gu Shi ‘an throwing the young soldier on the chair in front of the central table.

Han Jiangxue, who was wearing a cashmere coat, came to the table and was about to turn on the table lamp when she heard the young soldier’s strange Chinese accent.””Don ‘t, turn on the lights.”

“What?” Han Jiangxue frowned slightly. Under the moonlight, her beautiful eyes were as cold and sharp as the stars as she looked at the soldiers beside her.

The young soldier was obviously frozen. He shivered in fear, but he said stubbornly,””Don’t turn on the lights, don’t turn them on. ”

Xia Yan walked to the clothes rack, took off her windbreaker, and draped it over Han Jiangxue. She then looked down at the soldier and said,””What do you do?”

“I, Jindalai, warrior, I have. Report the situation ...” The young soldier’s Chinese wasn’t good, and his tone was anxious, so it was a little difficult for everyone to understand.

Jiang Xiao leaned against the soldier and sat down. He reached out to put his arm around the soldier’s shoulder and comforted him softly. “Don’t be in a hurry, speak slowly. ”

The soldier looked like he was 15 or 16 years old, or maybe even younger. He should have been at the age of school. Was he forcibly recruited here?

The soldier looked at Jiang Xiao excitedly, took out his id, and handed it over.

Jiang Xiao opened his officer’s id and confirmed his armband.””What’s your name? how old are you?”

Under the moonlight, the young soldier stared at Jiang Xiao in a daze in the dimly lit room, as if he was still in a dream ...

This was a little fanboy? Little fangirl?

“Thump! Dong!” Han Jiangxue tapped her fingers on the table gently and said coldly,”answer the question.”

“Ah ... Sigh ...” The young soldier looked quite delicate. He pressed one hand on his chest to calm his excitement and said,”my Chinese name is an Ying. I’m 14 years old.”

Jiang Xiao was dumbfounded.

16 years old was the world-recognized age of awakening?

This guy is only 14 years old? He had already awakened? This was a genius?

Jiang Xiao looked at Gu Shi ‘an with an inquisitive look, only to receive an affirmative answer from him. He nodded to indicate that the kid was indeed an awakened and there were star power fluctuations in his body.

” 14? I didn’t expect him to be a genius. He awakened two years earlier than ordinary people. ” Jiang Xiao chuckled and tried to comfort her.

To his surprise, Jiang Xiao was completely wrong.

The boy who called himself “shadow” looked a little embarrassed and said,””We were forcibly injected with star power and awakened star maps. A group of people died and were disabled. I’m here.”

Hearing this, the four people in the room fell silent.

Although the boy’s words were not coherent, everyone could roughly understand what he meant.

This wasn’t a genius, but a product of accelerated maturity.

If it were China, with such a large population, a large number of children at the age of 14 could certainly be awakened by star power, but relatively speaking, there would also be a lot of casualties.

Those children who were supposed to be fully awakened at the age of 16 were likely to have no chance of becoming Star Warriors because their bodies were not ready yet.

Even their bodies would not be able to recover and they would be extremely weak. No matter how many medical Star Warriors tried to treat them, it would be useless. Their future would be completely ruined.

If a 16-year-old child could not be awakened, there would not be any serious consequences. Choosing to carry out the awakening ceremony at this age could also awaken a person’s star map to the greatest extent. It was the best time to awaken, but it was not the only time to awaken.

Beside him, Gu Shi ‘an’s eyes suddenly turned into two pupils, which looked extremely strange. He stared at the child in front of him silently.

Jiang Xiao sighed gently and said,””Who gave you a Chinese name? very interesting.”

The child’s face lit up.”I’ll take it myself. It’s very powerful. Dark shadow.”

Jiang Xiao smiled and shrugged his shoulders.

Beside them, Gu Shi ‘an nodded slightly to the crowd. His two-pupil eyes slowly turned back to a single pupil, confirming that the boy was not an illusion of an earth hibiscus.

“So, little dark shadow, why have you come to find us?” Jiang Xiao took off the boy’s military cap and helped him comb his hair before asking with a smile.

“Everyone in the camp is an illusion. You are reality.” An Ying suddenly grabbed Jiang Xiao’s palm, giving him a great shock.

“Repeat it,” Han Jiangxue said with a solemn expression.

An Ying swallowed his saliva and seemed to be trying hard to organize his words. He stuttered,””White, white flowers, military camps, they’re all ...”

“Lily of the valley?” Jiang Xiao asked.

“Lily of the valley!” Shadow nodded. Bell orchid!”

Jiang Xiao went along with the boy and said,””Do you mean that the military camp is full of lily of the valley? Everyone in this military camp is under control?”

Shadow kept nodding his head, fast and fierce, like a chicken pecking at rice.

Xia Yan chuckled and thought, what a joke.

When it came to perception, Gu Shi ‘an was, of course, the person in charge. He said,””I didn’t find any lily of the valley here.”

Anxiousness was written all over an Ying’s delicate little face as he pointed to the ground.”Underground, underground!”

Xia Yan sat down, rested her chin on her hand, and teased with a smile.””Then why aren’t we bewitched?”

An Ying’s face was red. After holding it in for a long time, he finally said,””I don’t know,”

Xia Yan pursed her lips with a smile and crossed her legs. If the table wasn’t too big, she would have flicked the boy’s head to wake him up.

Han Jiangxue turned to look at Gu Shi ‘an and said,””Double pupils, go out and check.”

Gu Shi ‘an stood up at the order, but said,””This military camp is full of Star Warriors. If we look at it from the perspective of investigation and tracking, of course this place is full of star power. It’s not of much significance.”

Although he said that, Gu Shi ‘an still walked out. His eyes and four pupils made him look like a demon. He stood outside the door of the temporary building with his arms crossed, scanning the dark military camp.

Han Jiangxue wasn’t a very patient person, but since it involved the safety of the team, she was also very concerned.””Do you have any evidence?”

“Mr. Gao,” shadow said hurriedly,”Mr. Gao, %￥#, range of activity, limit, small, command, strange.”

The boy had added a Korean name after officer Gao, but no one understood what he meant.

“Chief Gao?” Jiang Xiao asked in confusion.

“The highest-ranking officer of the camp,” shadow replied after some thought.

Jiang Xiao asked, Chen Peng?

Jiang Xiao couldn’t help but think of the person in charge of the camp, who was also the burly man who had intercepted the team’s vehicle at the entrance of the camp.

Outside the door, Gu Shi ‘an walked in. Spreading his hands helplessly, he said,””It’s inevitable that there are traces of star power. The people living here are all soldiers. Many of them don’t sleep and are absorbing star power, especially those on duty. It would be abnormal if there were no fluctuations or remnants of star power.”

Gu Shi ‘an added,”I can break the illusion directly. At least I’m not in the illusion. From my perspective, the three of you are not.”

An Ying didn’t fully understand what Gu Shi ‘an was saying, but he could read his body language.

An Ying’s delicate little face revealed an anxious expression again.”Believe me, believe me! The camp is a dream, a dream!”

Jiang Xiao grinned. He didn’t think that the boy was lying to him. Seeing how anxious the boy was, Jiang Xiao was more willing to believe that he really believed that he was telling the truth.

But here came the problem.

How do you judge what is real and what is a dream?

From Gu Shi ‘an’s point of view? Who knew if Gu Shi ‘an was just an illusion in his own head?

‘Am I being controlled by the lily of the valley in some dimensional space?’

Or was he sleeping? Or was he talking to a strange young man who called himself “shadow” in the middle of the night?

...

I’ll recommend a loli’s new book, primeval Inn. It should be very interesting.
