Even though she has a ghost wife, she shouldn't be considered a girlfriend, right?

After all, they haven't gotten their marriage certificate yet... no, they haven't formed that kind of conventional romantic relationship.

"No…"

Zhang Xinxin's smile deepened.

She leaned forward slightly, her always smiling eyes sweeping over Gu Xu.

Her tone carried a hint of enigmatic meaning: "That's good. If you ever have a headache or fever at the base, or if you're tired from training and want to talk to someone, feel free to come find me anytime."

"The door here is always open for you, sister."

After she finished speaking, she winked at Gu Xu.

This stark contrast left Gu Xu somewhat bewildered.

Wasn't she supposed to be an intellectual and gentle older sister?

Why do I suddenly feel like I'm being teased?

And this sounds... kind of weird, doesn't it?

"Ahem!"

Jiang Shu, who was standing next to him, couldn't stand it anymore and rolled her eyes: "Sister Xin Xin, stop teasing the young master. Be careful he gets jealous and tears your consultation room down."

Zhang Xinxin chuckled and waved her hand, "Alright, alright, stop teasing. The data is all normal, he's a great young man."

Gu Xu jumped off the examination bed with a sigh of relief. Just as he was about to say thank you, he heard Jiang Shu lean close to his ear and whisper, "Young Master, what Sister Xin Xin said just now had a deeper meaning."

"This is her secret code."

"code word?"

Gu Xu looked bewildered: "What code? Are you in good health?"

Jiang Shu chuckled, her eyes gleaming slyly as she glanced at Gu Xu's waist: "She said you're 'very good,' especially your 'kidneys.' Got it?"

Gu Xu: "..."

He felt his whole body stiffen.

These female hooligans from the God-Slaying Army!

Isn't there a single decent person here?!

"Alright, stop standing there in a daze and hurry up. Boss Su is still waiting."

Jiang Shu pulled the petrified Gu Xu over and waved goodbye to Zhang Xinxin.

Then he rushed out of the consultation room in a flurry of activity.

After leaving the medical center, the two headed straight for the quartermaster department.

Thanks to Su Qiong's special approval note, we didn't encounter any obstacles this time.

The quartermaster in charge of the warehouse grimaced in pain as he shakily pulled a scroll emitting a faint golden glow from the depths of the safe.

[Divine Gift - 10x Experience Scroll (Legendary)]

[Effect: For 6 hours after use, experience gained from killing monsters is increased to 1000%!]

When Gu Xu took the scroll, his hands were trembling.

This isn't just a scroll; it's a direct ticket to becoming a powerful figure!

He carefully tucked the reel into his pocket and placed it close to his body, as if afraid of losing it.

"Let's go, Your Highness, the carriage is ready."

Jiang Shu patted the huge tactical backpack and led Gu Xu into a camouflage-painted off-road vehicle.

The car started, the engine roared, and it charged out of the base like a cheetah.

They sped off into the wilderness on the outskirts of Tianqi City.

The scenery outside the car window rushed past, with skyscrapers gradually being replaced by barren Gobi desert and withered weeds.

Inside the carriage, Gu Xu watched Jiang Shu adjusting a tablet computer in the passenger seat.

My curiosity finally couldn't be contained any longer.

From the moment we met until now, this adjutant, who looks like an underage girl, has been carrying a huge backpack that is completely disproportionate to her size.

Moreover, she remained remarkably calm whether facing that A-level berserker or that group of seasoned veterans.

"Um... Jiang Shu, can I ask you a question?"

Gu Xu spoke up.

"Go ahead and ask, we're practically family."

Jiang Shu said without turning her head, her fingers flying across the screen typing code.

"What do you do for a living?"

Gu Xu pointed to the large backpack: "You don't look like a warrior or assassin to me, could you be... a mechanic?"

"Me? I'm not very good at fighting, unlike Sister Qiong who's a violent maniac."

She patted her heavy backpack and said somewhat embarrassedly, "I'm just a support player. I mainly stay in the back and cheer them on, and occasionally give my teammates some buffs."

"Support?"

Gu Xu raised an eyebrow: "What are the specifics?"

Jiang Shu blinked her big eyes and said earnestly, as if reciting a text, "My profession is [Awakener], my current level is 60, and my rating... I think it's SS."

Gu Xu suddenly stopped in his tracks, almost tripping over his own foot.

He stared in astonishment at the "little loli" in front of him, whose height barely reached his chest.

Level 60?

SS-rank profession?

Is this what they call "not very good at fighting"?

In this world, professionals are divided into tiers of 10 levels.

Level 60 is equivalent to a sixth-tier powerhouse!

Moreover, the rarity and strategic value of SS-level support classes are, in some ways, even more terrifying than combat classes of the same level.

"The One Who Reveals..."

Gu Xu searched his mind for information about this profession, but there was no record of it in the textbook.

Clearly... this falls into the category of hidden professions or high-level mutated professions.

Seemingly noticing Gu Xu's surprise, Jiang Shu chuckled and explained, counting on her fingers, "Actually, it's nothing. My skills are mainly divided into two categories."

"One type is for enemies; I can instantly blind, deafen, confuse them, or forcibly weaken their armor and resistances!"

"Even a boss of the same level would be badly injured if hit by my skill."

"The other type is for teammates, which is commonly known as 'giving them a pep talk'."

"I can double your attack power, increase your mana regeneration speed by 300%, and give you an invincible shield. As long as I don't die, it'll be hard for me to die."

Gu Xu's eyelids twitched as he listened.

This is hardly a support role...

This is clearly a walking strategic nuclear weapon!

No wonder Su Qiong dared to travel all over the world with only her.

Having such a top-tier support player who can control, heal, and buff is wonderful.

Even challenging opponents of higher levels is commonplace for them.

"sharp."

Gu Xu gave a heartfelt thumbs up: "I'll have to rely on Jiang's help to get ahead in the future."

"Hehe, Your Highness, you're too kind. Serving you is my duty."

Jiang Shu smiled, her eyes crinkling into crescents: "Besides, Sister Qiong said that my role in this special training is to be a caretaker. You just need to focus on providing support, and leave the rest to me."
