Fan Yu stood aside and seemed to feel something from the distance in the atmosphere. He couldn't help but look into the distance. There seemed to be some kind of wavelength in his vision, causing a noise echo, which made his brows feel stinging and he groaned.

Seeing him suddenly covering his forehead, Xier walked towards him and asked in confusion, "Are you okay, Fanyu?"

Fan Yu rubbed his brows and frowned: "Maybe I didn't get enough rest last night..."

That being said.

His eyes inevitably turned down to his left hand.

A faint breath of coldness emerged, and the white air currents drawn in the visual field seemed to resonate and be pulled in a certain direction.

Like an echoing articulation!

Chapter 29 I am only growing stronger with their share

"You don't look like you haven't slept well."

Xier thought about what Fan Yu mentioned yesterday. She looked around suspiciously, "Could it be that you saw the earthbound spirit caused by the rift in the house again?"

Fan Yu shook his head: "I'm afraid not."

He felt the resonance of the low-temperature element coming from his arm and put his hand into the glove.

I've been hearing this echoing melody in my ears since the day I was in the mine. When I came to Rivet Town, I could barely attribute it to the "sensitive senses" brought about by my own connection yesterday, but based on the feedback that continues today, it seems that it is no longer an auditory hallucination or coincidence.

Regarding the source of the cold air floating on his palm, Fan Yu looked up at the angle above the broken head and subconsciously asked Xi'er in front of him: "Where is that place?"

Xier: "That's the direction of Yongdong Ridge. Wanderers in the wilderness like to go there to dig for ancient machinery."

"I see……"

Fan Yu understood.

The conversation between the two did not affect the already depressed atmosphere in the fallen house at all.

The members of the Earth Fire who had just fallen in took the weapons in their hands and stabbed them into the bags of wheat flour. The flour scattered in the space gave off a strange smell. Except for a small part that remained intact, the rest were no longer edible.

"Most of it has gone bad! How much food can be made with so much wheat flour?" The Dihuo members clenched their fists.

Oleg sighed. "It's quite normal. After all, it's been a few years since Rivet Town was evacuated. We've come across this kind of thing in other abandoned towns before. It's a shame we didn't discover this place before."

"But, Boss..."

Oleg patted the shoulder of the Earthfire member who had spoken, and said to everyone in the field, "Alright, searching for supplies always has its ups and downs. Don't despair, just keep looking."

"Fan Yu, is your condition just now okay?" Oleg asked Fan Yu again.

Fan Yu responded: "It's okay, just tinnitus."

He wasn't lying; the buzzing sound in his ears was still echoing.

Oleg nodded: "It's still too cold here, let's go out first!"

A brief interlude, after which everyone evacuated the mansion.

After coming out, they continued to advance slowly along the mountain road. Although they encountered many monsters and avoided the Illusory Leaf Weavers and the wandering Deep Cold Wanderers, no major accidents occurred.

By evening, the group returned from Rivet Town to the entrance of Rock Town, and their tense nerves relaxed.

A day's search for supplies was completed, and the bags, large and small, were placed at the gate of the fence, feeling relieved.

Joshua, who was in charge of statistics, had already been waiting here. He looked at everyone and said, "Thank you for your hard work. Today's harvest is..."

"It's less than half of yesterday's!"

"There's nothing we can do. We encountered several scary monsters on the road. Fortunately, we didn't alarm them. Today, it seems that there are more blocks of rifts and more monsters wandering around." A member of the Dihuo member said in frustration.

Oleg, the leader of the group, was quite calm: "There will always be situations like this. At least it's not a complete loss."

"Everyone has worked hard today. Go back and rest! And then, will Fan Yu continue to come today?"

Fan Yu hummed: "This is what I've been waiting for."

Oleg laughed out loud: "Then continue to the back of Natasha's clinic!"

That evening, there were no accidents. Oleg used his skills to train Fan Yu until his whole body was sore. After the training, he left happily.

After the training, Natasha appeared subtly and led him to the clinic.

"Take off your clothes, Mr. Fanyu."

Fan Yu: "..."

Under the light of the night, he was no longer confused and decisively unbuttoned his clothes.

……

The days just pass by one by one.

During the day, go to Rivet Town to search for survival resources.

When I came back in the evening, I received combat training from Oleg behind Natasha's clinic.

With the effect of [Connection], Hook's daily play can at least bring some strength, durability, and even fire attribute (extraordinary) attribute enhancement. Natasha provides spiritual attributes, which can enable him to raise the lower limit of the skills provided by Oleg to a higher level.

In a process of growth that integrates body, spirit and skills, Fan Yu lives a fulfilling life as he can clearly feel himself getting stronger day by day.

And happy times always pass quickly...

A month later.

The back alley of Natasha's clinic.

Oleg was wearing boxing gloves on his hands, which hung down as if dislocated, and he groaned in pain.

A spider-web-like crack had appeared on the wall of the back alley, and the iron frame on the wall was bent, symbolizing the end of today's training.

Oleg stared dryly at the curved armor behind him, took a deep breath, and said to the brown-haired, golden-eyed young man opposite him: "What kind of monster are you, kid?"

Recalling the Fan Yu in front of him a month ago, he thought he was a handsome but flawed rookie... But in just one month, the positions of the two people have changed from offense to defense.

A week ago, he even wore boxing gloves because he needed to put pressure on his opponent during training.

But it was only a week later, and as of today, Oleg is no longer able to suppress his opponent.

There is no so-called letting off the ball, nor is there any retention of teaching moves.

Looking at Fan Yu who was breathing calmly, an absurd guess emerged in Oleg's mind. Could it be that this kid still had reservations about him?

"I'm just taking a share of them and becoming stronger." Fan Yu said sincerely.

Oleg couldn't sense anything wrong with his attitude, but he couldn't put his finger on what was wrong: "..."

At this moment, a voice came from the side of the two people, interrupting their thoughts: "The battle is over again!"

The two looked towards the back door of the clinic in the alley, where stood a graceful female doctor with black hair and pink eyes, wearing a "Dihuo" ribbon tied around her neck.

Fan Yu looked into her eyes and felt a slight movement in his heart.

Natasha would always appear at the end of each day's training with Oleg, and the soreness left over from each day's training and fighting was always tested by Natasha's healing potions.

Sometimes it's a tearing pain, and the potion is relatively large. Sometimes it will cause your own Unit 2 to enter overload hardening, which is very embarrassing.

That batch of drug extracts was discarded and recently replaced with a type that has a paralyzing effect.

However, it is no longer his turn...

Oleg, standing at the corner of the alley, drooped his arms helplessly and said helplessly, "I'm afraid it's me, Natasha, who needs treatment today."

Chapter 30 Natasha: The trouble with fat gain

Oleg looked at Fanyu and let out a long sigh, not knowing whether he was happy about Fanyu's growth or sighing about his own old age and frailty.

Natasha stared at Oleg's drooping arms, then looked at the cracked walls and bent iron frames left after their training... In a sense, that was no longer training, but a battle.

"Indeed, this is incredible." Natasha said seriously, her eyes shining.

Fan Yu, standing by, showed no reaction to Natasha's sentiments as one of the "connection partners." "Then I'll be leaving today, Doctor. I promised Hook yesterday that I would give her a gift this evening."

Hearing this, Natasha held her face in her hands and said with a melancholy tone: "I really envy that child. I haven't even received a gift from you."

"I'll also send one if the doctor needs it."

"I'm just kidding." Natasha winked at him playfully.

Fan Yu was speechless for a moment: "..."

He could never tell whether this scheming female doctor was teasing him on purpose or making a serious announcement.

But it doesn’t matter.

He expressed his heartfelt gratitude to Natasha for her continued contributions over such a long period of time. Now he wanted to thank another [Connector].

After expressing his apologies to Oleg, Fan Yu politely turned around and left through the alley.

Oleg and Natasha, who remained at the doorway, watched him retreat, pausing for a few seconds. Natasha lost her gentle demeanor and, with a rare seriousness, asked Oleg, "So, you were really defeated by him?"

Oleg's face stiffened at such straightforward words, but he was almost an old man and quickly let go of his unwillingness to admit defeat.

Oleg sighed and said, "Although I don't want to admit it, this is the truth. When I was training him a week ago, I actually felt a little pressure. Until today, I found that there is no place to train him anymore."

"Natasha, you know what? I never taught him any fast punching skills, but he was able to find his own fighting style from my habits.

I don't know where that kid got some ideas from, but he integrated his skills into the weapon, even optimizing some of the movements and perfecting them within himself."

Natasha was puzzled. "I trust your judgment, but is it really that exaggerated?"

"The truth is, it's not an exaggeration at all." Oleg shook his head.

Natasha might not be able to feel it, but only he understood what kind of existence he was training.

Whether it was the comprehension of skills, the memory of neural reflexes, or the creativity of drawing inferences from one instance to another, these were types Oleg had never seen before.

Even Xi'er, whom he had watched grow up, was only superior in terms of reflexes, but that boy was all-round. He felt that the only thing he could compare to him was the selection of the Great Guardian, as far as he could imagine in his life experience.

Strength, skills, understanding...there are no shortcomings.

"However, what really strikes me as outrageous about that boy is his physical fitness," Oleg said seriously.

"Oh?" Natasha looked thoughtful.

Oleg said, "You know, when we brought him back from Rivet Town, his body was only well-nourished and a little stronger than a normal adult. But it wasn't so abnormal as to be incomprehensible.

But this past month, I could clearly sense the power hidden within that boy's body. It was like facing a rapidly growing beast. His strength was growing stronger day by day!"

"Well, I understand that feeling of cognitive subversion," said Natasha.

Oleg was startled and looked at Natasha in surprise: "You noticed it too?"

Natasha blinked and said, "After all, I'm always checking his injured body."

Facing Natasha's expression, Oleg looked suspicious.

The two have worked together for a long time.

Although she was old enough to be his daughter and junior, Oleg never underestimated Natasha because of his own life experience. On the contrary, as the leader behind "Underground Fire", some of Natasha's teasing was actually only in her role as a doctor.

Natasha rarely acted 'naughty' when facing him.

"Chief, are you hiding something from me?" Oleg asked.

Natasha laughed. She didn't intend to hide it and said bluntly, "Hook's health has been a little strange lately."

Oleg was stunned for a moment: "Huh?"

He had no idea why the Fishman children were mentioned.

Natasha said distressedly, "For the past two months, Julian and Alina have been complaining about Hook running too fast. I didn't take it seriously at first, but as I regularly checked the children's health, I noticed a peculiar phenomenon in Hook. He also has extraordinary physical strength."

"It's like they've entered puberty early, but strangely, they haven't grown much in height."

Oleg held his chin in his hand and said, "Could this phenomenon you're talking about be the special power possessed by those great figures?"

Although his knowledge was limited, he had worked in the upper class district before and knew some things.

Long ago, Yalilo VI believed in a star god in the universe named 'Amber King'. Among the great guardians of Yalilo VI throughout the ages, most also followed the path of the Amber King, walked on the path of "preservation", became destiny walkers, and mastered incredible powers.

Although this generation's [Great Guardian] Cocolia Rand is a special case, she possesses the power to instantly condense an ice spear that can suffocate people!

"I'm afraid it's not those. Hook's growth is similar to the characteristics you observed in Fan Yu's description. They are growing rapidly!" Natasha said delicately.

Oleg hesitated: "Is this a good thing?"

“I don’t know, but it wasn’t a bad experience.”
