ACSP: Chapter 102: The ones who need to run next are them!
"Ding~!"
"Congratulations on completing the hidden mission, successfully stopping Ichibi Shukaku from destroying the competition venue, and receiving the reward: 1 Gold Chest, 80,000 EXP points!"
Just as Shukaku turned into sand filling the sky and completely dissipated.
A notification sound rang in Jiang Chen's ears at the same time.
The next second.
A bright golden chest suddenly descended from the sky and landed directly in front of him.
And Li Yanran and the others each received a Silver Chest.
Obviously.
The Shuriken they threw at the last moment were also recognized by the secret realm as participating in this battle.
Therefore, they all received assist rewards.
However, due to the previous agreement.
They did not keep those Silver Chests for themselves but honestly handed them over to Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen opened the Gold Chest.
"Congratulations on obtaining the attribute Bloodline Limit — [Magnet Release]!"
A light orb with a spell pattern suddenly jumped out of the chest and landed in his hand.
"It's a Bloodline Limit!"
"This spell pattern... it seems to be Magnet Release, right?"
"Yes, it is Magnet Release. I didn't expect Jiang Chen's luck to be so heaven-defying, actually opening another Bloodline Limit from a Gold Chest."
Li Yanran and the others cast envious gazes.
They remembered that when Jiang Chen was in the [Land of Waves] secret realm, he seemed to have opened an [Ice Release Bloodline Limit] from a Gold Chest as well!
Didn't expect him to open a Magnet Release this time too.
This luck is just too heaven-defying.
Why does it feel like rare Bloodline Limits are like free goods in his hands, and he can pull one out every few days?
However.
Looking at the Magnet Release orb in his hand, a strange expression appeared on Jiang Chen's face.
This thing might be an extremely precious Bloodline Limit to others.
But to him, it was just a redundant, useless item.
Because the Uzumaki Naruto template already possessed this Bloodline Limit.
As long as he continued to raise his level.
He believed it wouldn't be long before he unlocked this Magnet Release.
And it would be the kind that comes with skills.
So there was no need to learn it.
"Forget it, I'll give this to you."
After thinking for a moment, Jiang Chen decisively tossed the Magnet Release orb in front of Wang Shanshan.
"Ah? For me?"
Wang Shanshan was stunned, unable to react for a moment.
Because she never dreamed.
Jiang Chen would actually give such a precious thing to her.
In fact, it wasn't just Wang Shanshan.
Li Yanran and the others standing on the side also revealed expressions of disbelief at this moment.
My god!
This is the [Magnet Release Bloodline Limit] that everyone dreams of!
It is said that as long as one learns this skill.
Even those Chunin-level Contractors could leap to become powerhouses comparable to Elite Jonin, or even Kage-level.
Jiang Chen just gave it away like that?
"What? You don't want it?"
"No, no, of course I want it..."
Wang Shanshan was flattered and hurriedly took the Magnet Release Bloodline Limit with her excited little hands, then bowed and said "Thank you" to Jiang Chen.
"Magnet Release is different from other Bloodline Limits. Although it cannot generate any matter out of thin air, it can magnetize other objects and then control those objects to fight. You play with hidden weapons, so this Bloodline Limit is very suitable for you. As for how to develop and use this skill in the future, that's up to you."
Jiang Chen looked at Wang Shanshan and continued.
The reason he wanted to give this Bloodline Limit to her was mainly because she was proficient with hidden weapons.
Magnet Release can magnetize everything.
If Wang Shanshan could magnetize all of her hidden weapons.
Her future achievements would definitely not be lower than Kage-level.
"Mm-hmm, I will remember that."
Wang Shanshan nodded very obediently, bowed again, and expressed her gratitude.
After hearing these words from Jiang Chen, Li Yanran and the others understood why he wanted to give the Magnet Release to Wang Shanshan.
However, there was one thing they were still very confused about.
Why didn't Jiang Chen learn this Magnet Release himself?
At this moment, Lin Ye suddenly thought of something and asked, "Jiang Chen, do you already have this Bloodline Limit yourself?"
Jiang Chen shrugged, "You could say that."
Hearing this, Li Yanran and the others gasped in shock once again.
"Ding~!"
However, before they could even finish their gasp.
A few more Secret Realm notifications suddenly appeared before everyone:
[Task Hint: Given that the finalist 'Edward' has left the Secret Realm, the final winner of this Arena Martial Arts Competition is—Jiang Chen (Great Xia Kingdom)!]
[Task Hint: The second stage task reward is 1 Golden Chest and 60,000 experience points; teammates receive 1 Silver Chest and 30,000 experience points!]
[Secret Realm Reminder: The current Secret Realm space will close in 20 seconds; please have all teams prepare to leave.]
Winning the final match without a fight was originally a good thing.
But at this moment.
Li Yanran and the others' moods suddenly became exceptionally heavy.
Because the enemies they were about to face were far more terrifying than the opponents they had encountered in the Secret Realm.
"After leaving the Secret Realm, we will be randomly teleported near the entrance. I will re-enter this place as quickly as possible, hoping it will be in time..."
As the captain, Yuan Danqing was the first to offer his suggestion.
This was also what they had discussed together beforehand.
Li Yanran said with some worry, "Now I'm just afraid they have already blocked the Secret Realm entrance. If that's the case, then we're in trouble."
Wang Shanshan frowned tightly, "I still have some smoke bombs here; I don't know if they will come in handy later."
Lin Ye shook his head with a solemn expression, "It's useless. There are two guys among them who have sensory skills. With them prepared, smoke bombs won't have any effect at all."
Li Yanran sighed heavily, then turned to look at Jiang Chen.
After hesitating for a moment, she asked, "Jiang Chen, if we cannot enter the Secret Realm successfully later, if you can run away by yourself, then just run. Don't worry about us. Those people have already discovered Jinghai City. As long as you are alive, Jinghai City might still have hope..."
Jiang Chen, however, smiled, "Run? Why would I run?"
At this moment, his gaze suddenly became exceptionally sharp.
"I have already activated my Mangekyo Sharingan. The ones who should be running next are them..."
Once these words were spoken, Li Yanran and the others instantly widened their eyes.
They couldn't believe it.
Jiang Chen would actually say such absurd things at this moment.
Didn't everyone agree before to stay in this Secret Realm for a few more days?
Why did he suddenly change his mind now?
"Jiang Chen, you must not do anything reckless. We know you are very strong, but there are 5 level 90+ Kage-level Contractors camping outside."
"That's right, those 5 guys don't look easy to deal with. We don't need to fight them head-on."
"Jiang Chen, if you want to go out alone to cover our retreat later, there's no need for that. Our lives aren't as valuable as yours; you staying alive is what matters most."
"Yes, yes, yes. Besides, even if we few escape, it's useless. When they go to Jinghai City later, we still won't be able to escape death..."
Li Yanran and the others all thought Jiang Chen wanted to stay behind alone to cover the retreat, and their expressions changed drastically.
Taking advantage of the fact that they hadn't left the Secret Realm yet, they quickly surrounded Jiang Chen and began to persuade him, hoping he wouldn't do anything foolish.
Jiang Chen was dumbfounded at the sight.
Damn it!
These guys are too prone to wishful thinking, aren't they?
Sacrificing myself to save others?
When did I become so noble?
