Chapter 007: Field Assignment

On this day, at the training ground of the base

She also arranged for a logistics personnel for me, which is you

After a moment of silence, Dawson said: "My combat power has surpassed 500, and to become an official member of CP9, I need to complete the test"

Although this child is nearly 5 meters tall

There is no reason to hesitate; this is an external assignment

Adrian's "Paper Drawing" stands out remarkably among the many reserves, with very few surpassing him

Adrian's breath caught in his throat

Even though Dawson appears to be a solidly built muscular man, apart from his occasionally excessive intuition and exceptionally developed limbs, he is, in fact, just a 14-year-old child, one year younger than Adrian

An elusive field assignment!

From certain perspectives, the effect of "Life Restoration" is similar to that of "Paper Drawing"; both involve precise control over body parts. However, "Life Restoration" also pertains to the internal structure of the body, while "Paper Drawing" only affects the surface.

No, it is the West Sea. Dawson provided an answer that was far from what Adrian had anticipated, "the Kingdom of Ilusia in the West Sea."

Will Instructor Yama take us along?" Adrian asked in a relaxed tone

Paper drawing

However, Dawson has already surpassed a power value of 450 in the power test at the end of last year, and his current level has reached as high as level 33

It is akin to the skill known as "Six Styles"

Paper Drawing is the skill that Adrian uses the most during training. In addition to the Lv5 skill of Paper Drawing, he has also mastered the Lv2 skills of Shave and Moon Step, as well as the Lv1 skills of Iron Block, Finger Gun, and Gale Kick

"Tomorrow morning at 8 o'clock," Dawson replied, "Instructor Wei Qu will be waiting for us at the base gate, and then we will head to the seaside to board the boat"

Adrian calmly used paper to draw. The Six Styles were taught to the reserve members by Weiqi Yamanoko last year, during which it was also observed that Weiqi Yamanoko's level was Lv43

Adé · Navigator · Chef · Think Tank · Laborer · ...! ... Anyway, not a combatant · Rian

"Where is the destination of the task?" Adrian asked, "Is it a country in the Paradise stage?"

Oh. This time I feel a bit envious and jealous

In addition, Adrian also spent 2 skill points to master the advanced skill of the Six Styles in advance: [Six Styles · Life Return]

Accepted

Pointing a gun, fist and cannon

In the blink of an eye, Adrian has spent two years on the training island

Six Techniques · Paper Drawing Lv5 (40536 / 300000): Defensive Skill, Releasing All Body Strength, By utilizing the changes in airflow generated by the opponent's movements, one can make the body as light and thin as paper, allowing for effortless control of the body, enabling one to narrowly evade any attacks directed towards oneself

Although Adrian did not understand why Dawson looked at him with disdain, he was still pleased to have someone to occasionally chat with.

What!

The Kingdom of Ilusia? It seems to be a small country I have never heard of... But why is it in the West Sea?" Adrian said, somewhat confused, "Shouldn't our small island be located within the Grand Line? How can we return from the Grand Line to the Four Seas? By airship? By submarine? If we rely on sailing ships, we wouldn't even be able to pass through the Upside Down Mountain, would we? Are we supposed to traverse the Doldrums? Is there such technology available now?"

The time quietly arrived in mid-1497, if I remember correctly, the Roger Pirates completed the "Great Pirate Era Adventure" this year, successfully reaching "Raftel" and achieving the legendary title of "Pirate King"!

I don't know," Dawson replied in a muffled voice, "perhaps you could ask her directly

The skill effect of paper drawing made Adrian's body feel as light as paper, allowing him to effortlessly control every part of his body, seemingly on the brink of danger, narrowly evading all of Dawson's attacks

Adrian suddenly widened his eyes as a message abruptly popped up on the panel

Looking at Dawson, who appeared utterly bewildered, Adrian felt that he had probably understood the intentions of that old woman, the mountain witch.

Under the influence of "Paper Drawing", "Life Restoration" has indeed improved significantly in terms of levels

Instructor Wei Quishan has assigned me an external duty task

Dawson shouted loudly, his fist, as large as a plate, surged with immense power, hurtling towards Adrian like a cannonball, accompanied by a series of crackling sonic booms.

Dawson's expression appeared even more bewildered than Adrian's; he could not comprehend Adrian's words at all. He had failed all subjects except for combat, and he had not even mastered the most basic skill of navigation.

All along, Dawson has maintained an air of "no entry" at the training base, rarely interacting with others. Adrian is one of the few individuals at the base who is able to engage him in conversation

What a useless task template

"No, nothing at all." Adrian took a deep breath, calmed himself, and said, "Why would Instructor Wei Qu arrange for me to be your logistics personnel?"

The battle scenes undoubtedly confirmed Adrian's long-held belief: rank does not represent everything, as there are too many factors in the world that can influence actual combat effectiveness

You have triggered a Level D task [Fieldwork]. Do you accept or decline?

Your abilities are certainly not limited to this level. Dawson glared at Adrian with his bell-like eyes, his tone expressing dissatisfaction

The Six Styles is a remarkably advanced martial arts technique that transcends the physical limits of human capability. Typically, one must undergo quite rigorous training to acquire it; however, for Adrian, who has mastered the progress panel, the Six Styles is merely a simple skill that can be grasped with some time, albeit with a considerable amount of experience required.

Dawson replied: "She said she would take the boat with us"

After beating the air for a while, Dawson finally stopped his fists. Although Adrian was clearly not his opponent, he had no way to deal with Adrian's drawings. If he insisted on fighting, he could only endure and conserve his strength, waiting to see who would give in first. That would be pointless.

Oh ... um ?

This intensified Adrian's desire to leave

Adrian's gaze shifted slightly; this was the first time in three years that he had triggered a task. He had always thought that the system's task template was damaged

Damn!

In fact, Adrian is currently still at level 10, with a power of around 50.

Task prompt: Inquire with the target individual

Dawson stopped his actions, and Adrian curiously asked, "Dawson, why did you suddenly ask me to come for sparring today?"

[Six Styles · Life Restoration Lv3 (1024 / 200000): Allows for free control over the body, hair, and internal organs. As long as consciousness is infused, one can freely control any part of the body]

Dawson does not expect Adrian to respond, as he knows that Adrian will not answer this question at all, just like in the previous instances.

Adrian remained silent, neither affirming nor denying, deliberately concealing his abilities, making himself inconspicuous among the group of reserve members. However, apart from Dawson, no one had addressed this matter directly with him.

Adrian smacked his lips

If it were not for his exceptional physical talents, Dawson would likely have been abandoned by the base commander long ago

Adrian rolled his eyes

Oh, congratulations. A completely perfunctory response

Adrian, who dreams of growing to two meters, suppresses his sadness and asks, "What is the deadline for the task?"

What happened?" Dawson was somewhat perplexed.

Regardless, the "opportunity" has already arrived

I would never ask that old woman with the extremely unpleasant voice!
