However, it turns out that Gao Fei's good sense of self is just an illusion after all.
After barely holding on for a few moves, Gao Fei was knocked down by Jiang Feng's stick. He tried to get up, but was hit by the stick in the crook of his leg and fell to the ground again.
From this moment on, the competition entered "garbage time". For the next ten minutes, Gao Fei couldn't even stand up, let alone fight back. Just as he was about to get up, he was knocked down by Jiang Feng with a stick.
Although Jiang Nuxia was merciful and the beatings were not very painful, every time she tripped him, she would always poke him on the buttocks with a stick while still saying: "Blow your ass!"
It's not very harmful, but it's extremely insulting!
In the end, Gao Fei simply put aside the useless battle ax, freed up his hands to stare at Jiang Feng, and when he noticed that she had the momentum to swing, he raised his arm to block, and tried to grab the stick with his other hand.
After trying several times, I finally managed to catch it once. Although I couldn't take the snake-like stick from Jiang Feng's hand in the end, I was able to save some face.
"I came here first today, thank you for your hard work."
Jiang Feng put away the eyebrow stick, helped him up, and released the "Qi Healing Technique" to help heal the bruises on his butt.
"I'm surprised that you can persevere."
Gao Fei was very embarrassed after receiving a fat beating, but how could he back down in front of a girl? He gritted his teeth and said to Jiang Feng: "I am convinced that I lost to you, but one day, I have to win back!"
"
"Very good! Very energetic! But there's no point in trying to show off. Do you dare to come and spar with me again tomorrow?"
"Come and come, whoever is afraid of you! From now on, as long as we can find time, we will train for an hour every day. If you don't come, you will be a puppy!"
Gao Fei was panicking to death, but he couldn't admit defeat.
"Hey! You still dare to be stubborn with me? I think you deserve a beating!"
Jiang Nuxia's mouth was fierce, but there was a happy smile in her eyes.
…
Gao Fei spent the whole day fighting monsters and leveling up in the game world. After he got offline, he had to go to the training hall to be tortured by Jiang Nvxia. The amount of exercise was really overloaded. After saying goodbye to Jiang Feng, he teleported back to his rental house, washed up and lay down.
Just sleep.
I slept until 9:30 in the morning when Jiang Feng called me and woke me up. I quickly got up and washed myself. Then I teleported to the Heavenly Palace through the astrolabe. I met Jiang Feng in the restaurant and had breakfast and lunch together.
Returning to the nameless desert island in the game world again, Gao Fei and Jiang Feng continued to pursue Fred Lange, the first mate of the "Flying Fish".
Today's start was good. Brother Basaka finally passed the third tracking check and found new clues in the valley.
Gao Fei's berserker and Jiang Feng's monk followed the trail and found a broken skeleton by a stream deep in the valley.
The deceased was obviously treated cruelly before his death. His hands and feet were violently torn off, and traces of bites were vaguely visible on Bai Sensen's skull.
"We have been tracking for two days, and finally we found such a skeleton..." Jiang Feng couldn't hide his disappointment, "If this is the remains of Fred Lange, wouldn't our work have been in vain?"
Gao Fei was also surprised.
If Fred Lange is dead and the only clue on the island is gone, how will the plot develop next?
Suppressing the disappointment in his heart, Gao Fei squatted in front of the skeleton and looked at it. At the same time, he said to Jiang Feng: "Have you ever watched "The Bones"? The protagonist is a forensic doctor, and he said a famous line in the play, 'The corpse can talk.'
, maybe we can get new clues from the first mate's remains..."
Bravely, he reached out and picked up the skull covered with tooth marks.
The moment the fingertips touched the skull, a cloud of gray mist suddenly emerged from the eye sockets of the skull, transforming into a looming incorporeal human form in mid-air!
Gao Fei was stunned for a moment, suddenly realized that something was wrong, and hurriedly got up to retreat.
However, it was still a step too late as the ghostly figure swooped up and tried to blend into his body.
Gao Fei felt cold all over and couldn't help but shudder. He knew that the ghost was trying to possess him, and he couldn't help but deeply regretted his negligence.
At this moment, he received a system prompt:
You need to make a DC 15 Will saving throw to resist being possessed by Fred Lange's ghost!
Fortunately, there was still a chance to resist. Gao Fei barely stayed awake and was about to make a saving throw. Suddenly, he had an idea. Instead of rushing to roll the dice, he shouted and activated "Rage"!
The profession of "Berserker" is not good at will saves, but in the "berserk" state, there is an advantage in making will saves.
Gao Fei rolled two dice, the first time was 7 points, and the second time was 14 points. He chose the better of the two dice, and then added 2 points of perception correction. He narrowly passed the Will save and successfully forced the ghost out of his body.
Jiang Feng had noticed that Gao Fei was entangled by the ghost and tried to help, but Gao Fei and the ghost almost overlapped. If he attacked the ghost, he would inevitably hurt Gao Fei, so he could only wait and worry.
Fortunately, not long after, Gao Fei got rid of the entanglement of the ghost with his willpower. Jiang Feng seized the opportunity and swung his stick to hit the ghost that had escaped from Gao Fei's body, but he failed!
After passing the will save, Gao Fei will be immune to ghost possession for at least the next 24 hours. With no worries, he immediately opened the astrolabe database to check the newly included "Ghost" illustrated book.
"Ghosts have incorporeal characteristics. Even if you attack with magic weapons, there is at least half a chance of failure." Seeing Jiang Feng about to hit the ghosts with his stick again, Gao Fei quickly blocked her behind him, "Don't get close to the ghosts, in case you are attacked by him."
It’s troublesome if you’re possessed!”
"Ghosts are undead, right? I know how to deal with this guy!"
Jiang Feng held the stick in one hand, freed up his right hand to activate the Yang Yan Qi, and suddenly spurted out "scorching radiance" from his palm, like a golden rainbow, hitting the ghost's chest straight!
Yang Yanzong's light-based martial arts are the nemesis of undead creatures.
The incorporeal ghost can dodge most weapons and magic, but it cannot avoid attacks with two attributes: "force field" and "brilliance". When it is hit by Jiang Feng's "scorching brilliance", it takes double damage and wails.
It disappeared on the spot.
"Uh... It's over now?" Jiang Feng scratched his head, regretting that he had struck too hard, "The first mate who became a ghost should be an important NPC. If I kill him like this, how will the plot related to him develop?
ah?"
"You don't have to worry about this. The ghost is the embodiment of the deceased's resentment. As long as the deceased's wishes are not fulfilled and the resentment remains, the ghost cannot be truly eliminated."
Following the prompts of the astrolabe, Gao Fei walked to Fred Lange's skeleton and made an "Intimidate" check against the skull containing the ghost.
"Mr. Lange, your behavior just now was very rude. I ask you to come out and apologize to me and my friends immediately, otherwise I will feed your skull to the dogs!"
