13: Chapter 13 Test Rank

The afternoon sun shone softly into Qin Xiaogan's room.

Qin Xiaogan rubbed his neck and got out of bed: "I wonder if I'll have the chance to die a few times today."

【Gaze of the Reaper + 50】

【Warning!】

【Warning!】

【The Reaper is about to open the Gate of the Dead World】

【Countdown: 90 days】

Qin Xiaogan looked stunned.

Does this Reaper really have it in for me?

Qin Xiaogan stretched lazily and slowly walked downstairs: "Whatever, even if it comes, it'll just be helping me grind my death count."

"Just waking up now?"

Feng Tao leaned against the wall, running her fingers through her beautiful hair.

Qin Xiaogan's eyes flickered.

Today, Feng Tao was wearing a white shirt and a pair of tight jeans.

The simple outfit outlined her slim and sexy figure.

"I'm taking you to meet your teammates."

Qin Xiaogan nodded.

He watched Feng Tao swaying her hips in front of him.

He thought to himself: This young woman is truly a stunner.

"Have you seen enough?"

Feng Tao crossed her arms and turned around, staring straight at Qin Xiaogan.

Qin Xiaogan smiled ingenuously: "Sister Tao, I don't understand what you're talking about."

Feng Tao rolled her eyes.

Then she turned around and opened the door behind her.

Feng Tao signaled for Qin Xiaogan to follow.

"Captain, you're back so early this time."

"Sis, you went out to have fun with the team leader and didn't even take me."

"Who is this young brother?"

Feng Tao looked at the three chattering people in front of her: "This is our new teammate from now on — Gan Xiaoqin."

A muscular man with bulging muscles spoke in a soft voice: "Sis, this pretty boy isn't your new flame, is he?"

Feng Tao replied irritably: "Shi Dachun, are you itching for a beating? I don't even have an old flame, let alone a new one."

Shi Dachun scratched his head.

A young girl chewing bubblegum nearby asked Qin Xiaogan: "What's your ability?"

Qin Xiaogan replied: "Fivefold Hardening."

Feng Tao explained: "He is a defensive-type Awakened."

The middle-aged man beside the girl laughed: "Xiaomai, he's your favorite type."

Xiaomai stared intently at Qin Xiaogan: "Follow me from now on, I'll take you to the top."

Feng Tao covered her mouth and laughed: "Then let Xiaomai take him to test his rank."

Xiaomai nodded and said to Qin Xiaogan: "Let's go."

Then she took Qin Xiaogan to a huge training ground.

Xiaomai blew a bubble, which then popped.

"Stand in the middle."

Qin Xiaogan walked slowly to the center of the training ground.

Immediately after, an extremely powerful pressure suddenly surged toward Qin Xiaogan.

Qin Xiaogan's knees bent slightly, and fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

He could clearly feel a strange energy invading his body.

"Hardening."

White iron plates immediately emerged from Qin Xiaogan's body, and that strange energy seemed to be stuck.

It was completely unable to enter Qin Xiaogan's body.

Xiaomai stood in the distance, mouth agape, staring blankly at Qin Xiaogan.

The bubblegum in her mouth had fallen to the ground at some point.

"How is this possible?"

This is an anchor point set personally by the Bureau Chief.

It can't even enter Qin Xiaogan's body.

How terrifying must this defensive power be?

Qin Xiaogan raised an eyebrow.

This energy was actually still increasing.

Soon, Qin Xiaogan's Hardening time ended.

As if sensing this, the energy rushed violently into Qin Xiaogan's body.

Qin Xiaogan hurriedly relaxed himself.

This energy exploded directly inside Qin Xiaogan.

Qin Xiaogan spat out a mouthful of bright red blood, accompanied by shattered fragments of his internal organs.

Xiaomai hurriedly cut off the energy supply to the training ground.

"Are you okay?"

Xiaomai helped Qin Xiaogan up: "Why did the energy suddenly get stronger?"

Qin Xiaogan shook his head, indicating he didn't know either.

Xiaomai took out a white instrument from her bosom.

Xiaomai looked down, her pupils dilating suddenly.

"Six... hundred? A-rank?"

Xiaomai looked at Qin Xiaogan, who had already stood up, with a face full of shock.

Xiaomai's eyes were burning with intensity: "Brother Gan! How long can your ability last?"

Qin Xiaogan replied: "30 seconds."

Xiaomai hugged Qin Xiaogan, shouting excitedly: "Brother Gan, an A-rank that lasts 30 seconds! With you here, I finally have a place to use my skills!"

【Name: Xiaomai】

【Strength: 80】

【Speed: 10】

【Defense: 5】

【Spirit: 150】

【Rank: C】

【Potential: B】

【Abilities: [B] Artillery, [B] Full Output, [D] Hold the Fort】

The corner of Qin Xiaogan's mouth twitched slightly.

This girl has maxed out her output, but her defense and speed leave much to be desired.

Without someone protecting her, a single slash from an enemy would probably send her to meet the Reaper.

Suddenly, a disgusting voice reached their ears.

"Not bad defense, kid, to still be able to stand up."

Fifth Brother Jiang led his squad and darted out from a corner of the training ground.

Xiaomai's delicate face tightened: "Old Thief Jiang, you bully your comrades like this, aren't you afraid I'll report you to your team leader?"

Fifth Brother Jiang and his group burst into laughter upon hearing this.

A gust of wind suddenly kicked up under Fifth Brother Jiang's feet, and he quickly arrived in front of Xiaomai.

He sniffed the scent on Xiaomai and sneered: "Little Miss Mai, why didn't I notice before that you were so innocent and cute?"

Xiaomai frowned tightly and swung a slap at Fifth Brother Jiang.

Fifth Brother Jiang grabbed Xiaomai's arm, revealing a lewd smile.

Fifth Brother Jiang teased: "Little Miss Mai, I haven't taken a wife yet, how about you and I give it a try?"

Xiaomai was furious and spat at Fifth Brother Jiang, cursing: "Bah! You think you're worthy!"

Fifth Brother Jiang wiped his face and shoved Xiaomai's hand away forcefully: "You really don't know what's good for you."

His face was gloomy as he turned to his companions behind him and said: "Grab that kid for me."

The middle-aged man with triangular eyes took the lead and rushed toward Qin Xiaogan.

Qin Xiaogan was expressionless, even wanting to laugh.

It seems I can get the system reward today.

Xiaomai said in a panic: "What are you doing!"

Fifth Brother Jiang mocked: "What? Did you just meet today and already pledge your lives to each other?"

Xiaomai was burning with anxiety and wanted to rush to rescue Qin Xiaogan, but her path was blocked by Fifth Brother Jiang.

Blue light flickered in Xiaomai's eyes.

The corners of Fifth Brother Jiang's mouth curled up: "You dare to use your ability in the Investigation Bureau?"

Upon hearing this, the blue light quickly dissipated.

"If you dare to touch a single hair on his head, our First Team won't let you off."

Fifth Brother Jiang waved his hands, feigning fear: "I wouldn't dare, I'm just taking him to our Third Team for a cup of tea."

Qin Xiaogan was dragged by the middle-aged man to Fifth Brother Jiang.

Fifth Brother Jiang smiled at Qin Xiaogan: "Kid, come with me to the Second Team and sit for a while."

Qin Xiaogan smiled ingenuously: "Okay."

"Hahahaha"

"Captain, is this kid scared stupid?"

Fifth Brother Jiang laughed even more wantonly: "Little Miss Mai, it seems he's much more sensible than you."

Xiaomai said in a panic: "Gan Xiaoqin! I'll inform the captain immediately to come and save you!"
