Chapter 10: You Can’t Rest Yet
The sky gradually darkened as thunder drummed in the clouds.
Mu Ling knelt on one knee in the middle of the road. A crowd of onlookers grew, curious about the white-haired girl’s next action, unaware of the impending disaster.
Behind her white mask, Mu Ling remained silent. She knew her enemies would arrive soon.
“Arghhh!” Someone suddenly discovered a crack in the ground!
The ground began to collapse, and black whip-like tentacles emerged! A huge black mass appeared. Around it were terrifying mouths that kept dripping green mucus. The thick hooves of the black goat supported its five-meter-tall body. Then, a monster that looked like a canopy crawled out.
It let out a strange roar, its body emitting a stench like that of a tomb.
The crowd seemed to be in a nightmare. Their thoughts immediately became confused, and they even started laughing and shouting.
Mu Ling slowly stood up.
“Face your sins!” She slowly removed the black cross from her cleavage. A black cross broadsword appeared in her hand in the blink of an eye. Mu Ling stood among the crowd and silently faced the black monster.
People all around screamed and scattered.
The Black Offspring roared loudly. It extended its tentacles and wrapped up passersby, stuffing them into its bloody mouth.
“Deep Blue World!”
In the next moment, the world completely stopped around Mu Ling. She utilized these brief two seconds to their fullest. Mu Ling rushed toward the Black Offspring like a gust of wind. Dozens of silver lights flashed in the air as vine-like tentacles were torn apart by the huge force.
The Black Offspring roared deafeningly. Its thick tentacles swept up nearby cars and hurled them at Mu Ling. Though she couldn’t control her body, she dodged the flying cars as if she had practiced these moves countless times!
The huge black goat’s hooves stomped down but missed by a hair’s breadth. In that brief moment, Mu Ling had already rushed beneath the Black Offspring.
“Owww!”
She could see its hideous mouth filled with blood. The insufferable stench assaulted her nose, but she felt no fear, fully believing in the Savior.
Mu Ling gripped the black broadsword tightly with both hands. A tremendous force surged forth as she slashed at the Black Offspring! The huge monster’s body rocked with flesh and blood flying in all directions, its countless tentacles trembling.
The Black Offspring wailed and struggled, attempting to destroy the small human who kept wounding it. Yet the human always struck first, as if she could foresee its attacks.
The Black Offspring couldn’t resist this human who fought like a “real monster.”
The monster’s massive body collapsed.
Mu Ling stood up slowly, covered in the dark blood of the Black Offspring.
“Mission completed.”
Countless onlookers stood in shocked silence. They would remember this scene forever.
The black mist reappeared to drag the monster’s body into it. Mu Ling looked at the crowd in panic. Soon, the night watchmen from DHA would arrive. She probably wouldn’t be able to escape.
However, the black mist wrapped around Mu Ling and pulled her in.
She vanished before the crowd. The passersby on Central Avenue remained stunned, unable to react for a long time.
Dressed in a black trench coat and white mask, she had been like an ancient warrior who hunted demons, using her great power to protect people from monsters.
No one was killed or injured.
When Mu Ling regained consciousness, she was back in the villa. Her clothes were still covered in blood.
“Phew. So tired.”
She let out a long breath. It had not been easy to regain control of her body. The situation had been truly dangerous. Fortunately, it was worth it. If she hadn’t been on Central Avenue, many people would have been killed or injured. At this moment, Mu Ling finally believed that Babel Tower was a righteous organization within the superpower.
“Savior used some extreme measures.”
Mu Ling subconsciously began making excuses for the Savior, convincing herself that being manipulated into doing these things was worthwhile. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be able to endure such a bitter day.
Suddenly, her expression changed.
[Nightsaber, you’ll receive training adjustment and simulation.]
“Noooo! I’ve just finished!
Please! Let me rest.
Just one second. I really need to rest.”
However, begging and wailing were pointless. The simulation of the Black Offspring soon appeared.
She was forced to engage in numerous battles again. Her face gradually showed despair as she retracted her thoughts of “whitewashing” the Savior.
‘He must be crazy!’
“I didn’t expect Nightsaber’s mood and loyalty to rise after this mission. In that case, she should immediately receive more training.” Bai Yan sat in the library, calmly playing the game.
It was clear that Nightsaber was a strong-willed operator. She didn’t need to soak in the recovery spring often, leaving him with plenty of Energy points.
“Nightsaber, you can’t rest yet.”
In daily training missions, players could earn 20 points a day. Completing four missions in three days would yield 80 points.
In weekly battle missions, players could earn 30 points each time. Three battles in one week totaled 90 points.
That made 170 Energy points. Adding the points exchanged for Legendary points and the newbie bonus, then deducting points spent training Nightsaber, Bai Yan now had 430 points.
He needed another 70 points to summon ten times. To be honest, Bai Yan couldn’t wait to summon again!
What was the best part about playing games? For Bai Yan, it was the moment before summoning, filled with hope.
After the training, Nightsaber’s mood dropped. Her current stats were:

Item: Night Blade x 1
Description: The disgraced successor of the legendary crime hunter clan. She was born with a huge responsibility. Revenge and reviving the family is her long-cherished wish.
When Bai Yan saw that Nightsaber’s dexterity had increased from 27 to 41, he knew the training had not been in vain.
“Good girl! My precious, sweet Nightsaber!”
Her loyalty had risen to 5, and he knew that at 6, more intelligence would be shown. Actually, loyalty would snowball along with training and actual combat. The higher it got, the harder it was to fall.
But there was also bad news. Nightsaber’s mood had dropped to 1 and was about to break down.
Bai Yan shook his head, knowing she had reached her limit. He was about to put her into the recovery spring when an ad popped up.
“Damn.”
Bullet-screen ads were always unpleasant, especially when playing games.
“What happened?” Bai Yan raised his eyebrows as he saw a video that had just been published online.
