Chapter 57: Why Are You at Tier 2?
The Shallow Gray District was considered an Laocheng District in Tianmu City.
As early as 2022, a huge reserve of lithium was discovered nearby.
At that time, the entire electric vehicle industry was in full swing.
Thanks to the existence of the lithium mine, the Shallow Ash District was very prosperous.
However, with the depletion of mineral resources, the former Shallow Skies District gradually declined.
The tall buildings lost their luster.
The residential areas were in ruins.
Now, they had long become the tears of the times.
However, today, as one of the abandoned districts in the shallow gray area, Happy Home.
However, a group of uninvited guests came.
The group of people came to the residential building that had collapsed last night.
Looking at the mountain of ruins before him, Su Mo felt extremely shocked.
It might not have been obvious from watching the news, but when they arrived at the scene, they realized how huge the ruins were.
“It’s only natural that such a huge ruin would be formed when a 33-story residential building collapsed.”
“If I were to live in this building, I wouldn’t even be able to escape from Tier 3, let alone Tier 2.”
“However, a thirty-three-story residential building is considered a slum in the old era.
After the country unified the world, the quality of life of the residents had greatly improved. Now, most of them lived in small western-style buildings with a few floors or more.
As a supernatural being, I should buy a villa. This is definitely not because I’m afraid that the building will collapse and I won’t be able to escape.”
Su Mo withdrew his thoughts and looked at Xu Liushuang, who had already arrived.
He stood at the edge of the ruins, frowning, his expression gloomy, and his posture as a stranger.
However, thinking about it, it was understandable that the Zhenwu team was nearly wiped out. This was a major event that shook the entire Skywood Transcendental World.
One had to know that there were only 16 teams in the entire Tianmu City.
Xu Liushuang was the regional deacon and she commanded four teams. The Zhenwu Team was one of them.
According to Su Mo’s understanding, Zhenwu Squad should be the strongest of the four squads.
There were even two Tier 4 players in this party.
Back then, if this team had joined the encirclement against the arrival of the demon emperor.
Perhaps there would not be any casualties on the battlefield.
But at that time, they were already busy with the search and rescue mission.
Unexpectedly, it was precisely this inconspicuous search and rescue mission that almost wiped them out.
This was the first time they had suffered such a huge loss.
Not to mention a newcomer like him.
Even Zhang Zhenyu and the other elders were shocked.
After waiting for a while, Trascendent from other teams arrived one after another.
Su Mo watched as they chatted and greeted their friends.
This was a serious matter, so Xu Liushuang had gathered all the men under her command.
Because they had just experienced the demon emperor’s arrival not long ago, some teams had yet to fully recover.
This included those who were recuperating, those who had just joined the team, and those who were carrying out the advancement ritual. None of them came this time.
For example, their Team Furong only sent four people this time.
Qian Tao was recuperating while Old Master Zhou was performing the advancement ritual.
Most of the other teams were the same.
There were probably only a little more than ten people scattered together.
For this reason, Xu Liushuang had already sent a request for help to her colleagues.
According to Captain Zhang’s information.
This time, apart from deacon Ji Lan, who was closely pursuing Zhang Lie.
Three of the four deacon of Tianmu City would appear and work together to resolve this matter.
“Old Xu, how are you?”
Another team arrived from afar.
The leader of the group, a burly man, greeted from afar.
After seeing him, Xu Liushuang’s solemn expression eased up, but her words were merciless.”
“It’s too slow!”
“Hey, when you called me, I was holding a celebration party for the team below!”
Shouzhuo Zhao chuckled and pushed out a young man who was dressed in branded clothes. He said smugly,
“Let me introduce you. This is our newly awakened [heavy cannoneer], Zhang Ruoxu.
Not long ago, he helped us destroy a demonic spider nest and successfully rescued many hostages.
It was truly amazing that a mere Rank-1 could unleash such powerful effects.”
“deacon Zhao is exaggerating. I only played an insignificant role.”
Zhang Ruoxu replied humbly, but there was a hint of pride in his eyes.
Seeing this, Xu Liushuang smiled and said,
“To be able to play a role in actual combat at Tier 1 is indeed impressive.
For example, our new Sword Saint might not have such an experience.”
“There’s nothing we can do about it!”
Zhao Shouzhuo said smugly,”
“After all, a Tier 1 Sword Saint can’t pull too far apart from other melee classes.
If he wanted to truly display his overwhelming combat power, he would have to reach at least Tier 3.
As for our Little Brother Zhang, he can provide long-range support with heavy firepower at Tier 1.
Although he had taken advantage of the weapon, it was still a part of his strength.
When you Sword Saints reach the high level, you can get a good sword. It won’t be bad.”
Zhao Shouzhuo seemed to be consoling him, but he was actually showing off.
Xu Liushuang laughed and waved at Su Mo.”
“Come and meet our deacon Zhao and get to know your peers.
This heavy cannoneer Zhang Ruoxu awakened around the same time as you.
As the two strongest professions in the same batch, you guys have to get along well.”
Su Mo glanced at the smiling Xu Liushuang.
He didn’t expect this moustache to be so sinister.
However, he was his boss after all, so he naturally had to make the situation look good.
Su Mo immediately walked up and greeted Zhao Shouzhuo, who was as strong as an iron tower.”
“Greetings, deacon Zhao. I’m Su Mo, Su as in Su Shi, and Mo as in Mo Di. I’m a new Sword Saint under Deacon Xu.”
Zhao Shouzhuo laughed and was about to say a few words of encouragement when the smile on his face suddenly froze.
He looked at Su Mo, his eyes widening as he asked in disbelief,”
” You, why are you at Tier 2??”
“Aiya, what can we do?” Xu Liushuang immediately took over the conversation and replied with a troubled expression,” I also wanted him to train more when he was at Rank-1, but this kid only used a few days to break through to Rank-2 after awakening. He messed up all the plans I had prepared. It seems that it’s not a good thing to cultivate too quickly.”
Zhao Shouzhuo instantly felt as if he had eaten a fly. His old face turned red from holding it in, and he was unable to speak.
Zhang Ruoxu, the heavy cannoneer, was also shocked.
He had thought that it would be considered fast for him to break through in two months at most.
He did not expect someone to break through to Tier 2 in just a few days.
He was also a professional who was as famous as him.
Furthermore, they were in the same period.
This time, his Dao heart was almost shattered.
Su Mo looked at their expressions and knew that Xu Liushuang’s posturing had succeeded, so he quickly left.
On the side, He Shuang and Xu Huimei, who had fought with him during the raid in the seventh dimension, were also shocked when they saw him leave.
“I didn’t expect that in just a few days, he had already broken through to Tier 2. Is this what a genius is?”
He Shuang had a complicated look in her eyes.
Xu Huimei said emotionally,
“If I had known earlier, I would have tried my best to pull him into our team. With him supporting us, perhaps the captain wouldn’t have died in Xiao Cang Mountain.”
He Shuang and Xu Huimei looked at each other and fell silent.
At the same time, Su Mo looked at a familiar face in the team with a strange expression.
