Reborn One Week Before the Apocalypse

Chapter 333: Chapter 323: Special Training

Guo Mingyi quickly began to take over matters big and small. Although no one could go outside and the space inside wasn’t large, a place with many people could easily descend into chaos, making a methodical administrator essential.

In the current Hell Era, administrators could hardly skim any benefits for themselves; it was an act of pure, selfless dedication.

Tang Mo hadn’t misjudged Guo Mingyi.

Tang Mo was a lone wolf by nature. Before, she’d had no choice, but now that she had finally managed to shrug off this great burden, she was naturally relieved and relaxed as she leisurely returned to her tent.

Because there was plenty of space, everyone had left a large area for Tang Mo, and there was a lot of distance between her tent and the others.

When Tang Mo returned to her tent, she found Lin Yu standing at the entrance, waiting for her.

”What is it? Something you need?”

Lin Yu had been handling things for her these past two days, and Tang Mo had taken note of all his hard work.

”I...”

Lin Yu hesitated, not knowing how to begin.

”Just say it. You don’t talk much as it is. If you don’t speak up, you’ll turn into a mute.”

”I know you were the one who taught the Holy Doctor Village their healing techniques. Can you teach me?”

Lin Yu finally mustered the courage to say it.

All this time, he had been passively receiving Tang Mo’s help, even though he had long since decided to dedicate himself to helping her.

But the truth was, even though he had been doing everything in his power for the Wen Family and Lin Yi since entering the base, he had to admit that there was nothing he could really do to help Tang Mo.

Yesterday, he had learned the protection circle from Tang Mo, but as a Spiritual Ability User, seeing the Holy Doctor Village’s miraculous method of using spiritual power to heal, he simply couldn’t suppress the fervor in his heart.

If he could, he would do anything for Tang Mo—provided his sister was settled—and was even willing to repay the debt he owed her with his life.

But he never got the chance, and now he had to ask for even more from Tang Mo. As a man of flesh and blood, it was truly difficult for him to bring himself to ask...

”Oh, is that all? I just happened to teach them a few things when I was in Wuxi Village. They figured out most of it on their own.”

”However, there are a few things I can teach you about spiritual power. For instance, do you want to fly?”

Tang Mo, of course, understood Lin Yu’s feelings. If Lin Yu weren’t an ambitious person, she would have felt like she had saved him for nothing.

At first, she did have the idea of recruiting Xiao Tao and Lin Yu, to prepare for forming a combat team like Qin Ling’s in the future.

But she later discovered that she was still better suited to fighting alone.

Her approach to crises relied more on intellect than on direct, forceful confrontation. Sometimes, being alone was simply far more convenient than having teammates.

Especially now that she had to do missions in the Divine Chosen Space, where you couldn’t even bring teammates if you wanted to.

Although she wasn’t physically at the base, she was aware of what Lin Yu and Xiao Tao were doing for her there, and she knew what they were thinking.

This was a time of life or death for humanity. Their enemies were shared, not each other. What reason did she have to hold anything back?

Hearing Tang Mo’s words, Lin Yu’s eyes lit up.

He had seen Tang Mo flying in the air before and had secretly tried many times to do it himself with his spiritual power, but he could never get the hang of it.

If he could really receive Tang Mo’s guidance, it would be absolutely wonderful!

”But you have to do me a favor,” Tang Mo said, looking at Lin Yu with a sly expression.

”Name it. As long as it’s something I can do, I’ll do anything.”

「Five days later.」

”Lin Yu, you’ve really gone too far.”

”Brother, you’ve really gone too far.”

”Too far, too far.”

...

Xiao Tao, Xianxian, and Yangyang—one adult and two little ones—sat on the edge of the protection circle, watching the world outside.

There, Tang Mo had built a separate protection circle for herself. She stayed there with only one purpose: to get beaten up.

This was the favor Tang Mo had asked Lin Yu to do for her: to find five people with high Strength Attribute Values to come and fight her every day.

This was the fastest method Tang Mo could devise to fuse the Power Pearl in the outside world.

She had fused two pearls before, so she knew what conditions were required for fusion.

And the fastest way to fuse the Power Pearl was to fight by abandoning her spiritual power, putting down her weapons, and engaging in bare-handed combat using only her body’s physical strength.

Tang Mo was a Spiritual Ability User. Although her practical combat skills were strong and her body was well-enhanced, she still couldn’t handle five burly brutes with a high Strength Attribute.

At the beginning of each day, she could still suppress them, but by noon, she could only fight them to a draw, and by the afternoon, all she could do was take a beating.

Tang Mo didn’t even use Crystal Stones to replenish her energy, allowing her body to be constantly tempered and depleted.

After Xiao Tao and Xianxian found out that Lin Yu was the one who brought the people to fight Tang Mo every day, they glared at him angrily every single day and never gave him a pleasant look.

Lin Yu was miserable.

He felt so wronged! He didn’t want to do this either, but how could he disobey a request from Tang Mo?

Tang Mo had even specifically instructed him to find people with the highest Strength Attribute Value, the kind who looked fierce and formidable.

Heaven knew he didn’t even dare to walk around the base anymore. Everywhere he went, he was met with angry glares from Tang Mo’s die-hard fans.

Xiao Tao and Xianxian were manageable; they were relatively close to him, so they only cursed at him verbally.

But the people from the Holy Doctor Village looked like they wanted to eat him alive whenever they saw him.

As for Qin Ling...

Lin Yu already had his spiritual power extended to scan his surroundings. The moment he sensed Qin Ling nearby, he would immediately hide far, far away.

How could he possibly dare to face Qin Ling now?

Even little Yangyang, who used to like him a lot, would now grab his arm and bite it whenever she saw him.

Lin Yu wept silent tears in his heart. This job he had taken on was truly not easy; he was becoming a villain for the ages.

Meanwhile, Tang Mo was oblivious to all this. She was extremely satisfied with the current level of her daily training.

Although she would be covered in bruises of varying severity by the end of each day, she could clearly feel the Power Pearl in her sea of consciousness beginning to stir restlessly.

The day of fusion was likely not far off.

Some people had already entered the Divine Chosen Space, but no one had come out yet.

It seemed the missions in the Divine Chosen Space were not simple at all. She had to be fully prepared and fuse the Power Pearl before anything else.

This practical combat training over the past few days wasn’t just for fusing the Power Pearl. As a Spiritual Ability User, her close-combat abilities were inherently weak.

After sparring with so many experts these past few days, she had learned a great deal. Her predictive instincts, physical coordination, judgment of an opponent’s strength, and her own attack patterns were gradually coalescing into a cohesive system. This was an area she had always neglected, so it was like she was taking remedial classes to shore up her weaknesses.
