Chapter 66 - Feeling of heartache

The Fire God Squad had been in the Ghost Banshee's territory for seven days.

The hunts in the first few days went smoothly, but as time went on, hunting the Elite Banshees suddenly became difficult.

Originally, Ruan Yu's "Drunken Reverie" perfectly countered the Elite Banshee's "Fear-Inducing Attack," and his "Passion" made it impossible for the Elite Banshee to ignore him, drawing all the Banshee's attention to him.

Jiang Kai always struck with ease, instantly killing the Elite Banshee without any danger.

Hu Yan was responsible for pulling Ruan Yu away just in time when Jiang Kai set the Banshee ablaze.

The Fire God Squad's teamwork became increasingly skilled.

However, starting from the sixth day, even in his drunken state, Ruan Yu seemed to realize something.

Every time he sweet-talked his "little darling," his companions would kill his treasure, so he suddenly sped up the pace!

"Little darling, don't waste time, let's hurry!" Ruan Yu pounced on the Elite Banshee, put its split head back together, and kissed it, while his hands roamed freely, slipping under the nightgown.

Seeing this scene, Jiang Kai and Hu Yan were both shocked.

Jiang Kai and Hu Yan stood frozen in place, eyes wide open, exclaiming in unison.

"Holy crap!"

The scene of shock wasn't limited to just these two.

The Banshee's mouth was blocked, and its eyes, already wide with terror, widened even more, almost popping out of their sockets.

To be honest, in all her years as a Ghost Banshee, she had never encountered someone so exceptional!

Under Ruan Yu's "special attack," the Banshee forgot to fight back, writhing and letting out a piercing scream, desperately trying to escape from under Ruan Yu.

"Kai, this is the last cabin. Do you think we should give in to that old pervert's wishes?" Hu Yan said seriously, "He's done so much for the Fire God Squad, he deserves some reward."

Jiang Kai's expression was grave; this question was indeed challenging.

In the past few days, they had swept through the Elite Cabins, and of the 39 cabins on the information card, only 4 had been cleared by others, while they had cleared the remaining 35.

This also indirectly proved that even strong squads were reluctant to provoke the Ghost Banshees.

If you stumble upon this tale on Amazon, it's taken without the author's consent. Report it.

In other words, Ruan Yu had lost 35 little darlings!

Every time they killed a Banshee, seeing Ruan Yu cry his heart out, as the captain, Jiang Kai couldn't bear it either.

"Old Hu, I suddenly thought of a problem. We've already swept through the Elite Cabins, and next we might have to go to the Iron Armored Lizard Dragon. Do you think..." Jiang Kai frowned, seriously contemplating, "Do you think Ruan Yu might make a move on the Iron Armored Lizard Dragon?"

Hu Yan was silent for a long time before finally having an answer, "Hiss... hard to say! If he can go for a Ghost Banshee, then encountering a female Iron Armored Lizard Dragon... oh, it doesn't even have to be female, I don't think anything can stop Ruan the Ghost."

In recent days, Ruan Yu had gained a new nickname. Before drinking, Jiang Kai and Hu Yan called him Ruan Yu, but after drinking, they called him "Ruan the Ghost"...

Seeing Ruan Yu already unbuckling his belt, the Banshee finally realized that she was still a Ghost Banshee. She extended her long, spiked fingers, aiming for Ruan Yu's back.

Jiang Kai saw this and hurriedly struck to kill her.

Hu Yan struggled to drag Ruan Yu away, and once he was pulled away, he burst into tears again.

"Why, why do this to me!"

Jiang Kai looked at Ruan Yu and sighed lightly. If the Banshee hadn't made a move, he wouldn't have had the heart to let his brother suffer like this.

"Ah, what a pity..."

...

The afternoon sunlight streamed through the broken window frame of the cabin, falling inside.

Ruan Yu felt the light, frowned slightly, and opened his eyes.

After sitting up, he saw Kai and Old Hu busy with the large treasure chests scattered around the room. He didn't care much, rubbed his temples, and sat there in a daze.

Jiang Kai and Hu Yan noticed Ruan Yu waking up and exchanged a glance. Why did this guy seem so out of it after waking up?

The two put down what they were doing and came over.

"Old Drunkard, what's wrong with you?" Hu Yan frowned, "You used to be fine after a night's sleep no matter how much you drank. What's wrong today?"

Ruan Yu hung his head, looking lost, and said softly, "Physically, there's nothing wrong, it's just... I don't know why, but it hurts a bit here." Saying this, he finally raised his head, pressing a hand to his chest, looking pitifully at his companions.

"Chest pain?" Jiang Kai was immediately a bit worried.

Could he have been injured yesterday?

Hu Yan was also quite surprised, "Could it be an injury?"

"It's not an injury, it's, it's a feeling of heartache." Ruan Yu said with a mournful face, "Like I've lost something important..."

Jiang Kai and Hu Yan exchanged a glance, pondering for a while, and suddenly Jiang Kai understood.

Jiang Kai then took out a card, materialized it, and it turned into a glass vial containing about 500 grams of black powder.

"Is this what you lost?"

"Banshee's ashes?" Ruan Yu stared wide-eyed at the item in the vial, instantly recognizing it as a veteran employee of a certain dissection shop.

At the same time, he seemed to have found the reason for his low spirits.

Last night, seeing Jiang Kai burn his little darling to ashes, seeing the item now, he finally found that feeling.

"Does it still hurt now?" Jiang Kai asked with a smile.

Thinking of the Banshee's appearance, Ruan Yu shivered and was completely cured.

"No, it doesn't hurt anymore..." Ruan Yu stammered.

"If it doesn't hurt, come and see our haul. We've got quite a lot these days, come take a look." Jiang Kai patted Ruan Yu on the back.

"Since you're awake, it's a good time to divide the loot."

Ruan Yu couldn't believe his ears and said weakly, "Kai, I get a share too? Isn't that inappropriate? I joined the team just to occasionally gain some experience, I never thought about getting equipment."

Jiang Kai couldn't help but glance at Ruan Yu. This guy's current timid demeanor was completely different from his brave and fearless self last night.

Thinking of Ruan Yu's performance last night, Jiang Kai felt a bit ashamed.

He finally understood what Hu Yan meant when he introduced Ruan Yu with the words "Under normal circumstances, he's very honest."

"Of course you get a share, everyone in the team has contributed, so everyone gets a share of the spoils!" Returning to the main topic, Jiang Kai talked about distributing the loot, "The Banshees don't take physical damage, and to ensure Ruan Yu's safety, we had to kill them immediately, so you couldn't share the experience. But in the future, if the situation allows, I'll let you finish the kills."

Actually, Jiang Kai wasn't in a hurry to gain experience. After all, without finding the subsequent materials, he could only level up to 20 at most.

He was already level 12, and if he focused on leveling up, he could probably reach the limit in a month or two.

The three of them immediately conducted a preliminary inventory of the treasures from the 35 Elite Banshees.

There were 176 pieces of equipment, including 26 various weapons, exactly 150 pieces of various armor, including armor, capes, shoes, and gloves.

There were 27 pieces of jewelry, including rings, necklaces, masks, hair accessories, bracelets, and armlets.

There were 11 small ore blocks, although the quantity was far less than the Black Ape's treasure chest, Ruan Yu said the rarity of these ores was quite good, with three or four reaching gemstone level.

And several potions.

When they reached the last item, Jiang Kai curiously took out a blue leather booklet from a chest, frowning as he took it out.

"What is this? These Banshees are quite studious, collecting a book?"

Hu Yan and Ruan Yu looked over in surprise, and when they saw what Jiang Kai was holding, their eyes widened.

Hu Yan exclaimed in shock, "No, could it be... a skill book!"
