Poseidon in Tomorrow's Ark

"Ah, when did I say I can't tell you?" Xiyue looked at Jessica helplessly, "Ah, it seems I have to go ask Elini later."

"Ah, no, it seems that what she said is indeed difficult to say. Well, forget it, it's okay."

"Wait." Franca first glanced at Xiyue, then at Jessica, "Dream teaching? So these days, Jessica, you have been sleeping on time, is it because you dream about learning from Miss Xiyue every night?"

"Yeah." Jessica nodded, and then showed the bracelet on her wrist, "This is Teacher Xiyue's special teaching method. As long as Miss Xiyue is free, with the help of this bracelet, I can enter my dream and study with Teacher Xiyue."

"What a wonderful Originium technique." Franka squatted down slightly and carefully observed the bracelet on Jessica's wrist. "It seems very convenient to learn in a dream."

"But if you study for a long time, you'll feel a bit of a headache." Jessica said with a hint of regret, "So you can't study all the time."

"Do you think you don't have enough time to study? You know, I've at least shared more than 90% of your mental pressure," Xiyue rubbed Jessica's head unhappily, "The time I've arranged for you is actually quite extreme. If you go on like this, you'll have a headache."

"Otherwise, I won't share the mental pressure with you next time, just let you experience it."

"Wuwu~" Jessica shook her head as Xiyue rubbed her, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

"Okay, that's enough~" Xiyue immediately let go of Jessica's head, "Anyway, that's it. I know your performance on paper very well, so what I need to test is your actual combat skills."

"And for mercenaries..."

Xiyue took a step back slightly, and at the moment her footsteps landed, the training ground was instantly covered by a touch of dark blue. Then, a column of water erupted on the training ground. When the water column fell, buildings appeared one after another, completely covering the original training facilities in the training ground.

"What!" Razer looked at the buildings that suddenly appeared around him in surprise, "This..."

"I think actual combat will better suit your combat needs." Xiyue looked at the three people who became alert instantly with a smile on her face.

As the words fell, many water masses suddenly appeared on the ground nearby. The surface of the water masses slowly moved, and gradually a group of mercenaries holding various weapons appeared.

"Be careful." Xiyue gradually retreated, retreating behind the group of mercenaries transformed from water. "Their weapons are not fake. If you are not careful, you will really die."

"And this actual combat training has only one goal, to get through these mercenaries and get to where I am. That's all. How about it? It's very simple, right?"

"Are we testing in this way?" Franka looked at the mercenaries around her who had not yet taken action, and her mouth twitched. "This is really outrageous."

"Comprehensive test?" Razer looked at Jessica beside him, "Miss Xiyue wants to test Jessica's comprehensive ability, her ability to observe the battlefield situation and when to provide support and how to provide support."

"But you're right, Fat Fox. It's really outrageous to test in this way."

Jessica took a deep breath and checked her two pistols: "No problem, there are plenty of bullets, I'm ready."

As Jessica finished her words, the surrounding mercenaries scattered instantly, and the ground they collected under their feet was like a wave, rolling them up and sending them to the entrance of the training ground.

"The test begins." As Xiyue's voice echoed throughout the entire training ground, Razer immediately raised his shield to block the first wave of arrows.

"Thick fog, circular shield, acoustic detection." Jessica muttered softly, then raised the white pistol in her hand and pulled the trigger.

A bullet with white lines flashing on its body was fired instantly and hit Razer's shield. The moment of impact, the bullet shattered and thick fog erupted from the point where the bullet landed, protecting them.

bouncing!

Then there were two consecutive gunshots, and the bullets with blue patterns hit Razer's body, and the blue tortoise shell patterns instantly spread all over Razer's body.

Another bullet hit the open space in front. Yellow ripples spread out from the point where the bullet landed. The appearance of the enemy hit by the ripples was instantly clearly marked in Jessica's eyes.

jump! jump! jump!

The moment she saw the enemy, Jessica fired the black pistol in her other hand, knocking down the approaching enemy. At the same time, a faint yellow light began to emanate from the shot enemy.

Xiyue found a sofa for herself in the distance and started to make black tea, feeling the scene she just saw: "The thick fog provides an environment to prevent long-range attacks, the ring shield improves the defense of the Razer, and the sonic probe opens up the field of vision for herself."

"Is that a mark inside the black pistol? It looks like it's busy."

Razer relied on her shield and the ring shield on her body and rushed forward with her shield raised. This was a combination they had used many times before to create an advantage for themselves, so Razer did not hesitate at all.

After getting close, Razer decisively used his shield to knock down an enemy that he had marked, and then he fired continuously with the pistol in his hand.

He first shot him in the body, then shot him twice in the head, and he immediately stopped moving.

Afterwards, Razer decisively turned sideways and used his shield to block the enemy that came after hearing the sound. After blocking, Razer's pistol fired again, three shots in the head, knocking the enemy to the ground.

"They all seem to be at the level of ordinary mercenaries." Razer reloaded the pistol in his hand, "It doesn't look like they have no weaknesses just because they are made of water."

"Me too." Franka's voice came from the thick fog on the other side. Judging from the fluorescent object at her feet, Franka had just killed an enemy.

"Move forward, we are not here to defend our position." After confirming the status of others, Razer was the first to raise his shield and rush out of the thick fog.

Razer understood that their goal was to capture Xiyue, not to defend their position here. These enemies were also created by Xiyue with water. She didn't think that Xiyue would let them stay here so easily and eliminate all the enemies.

"Earth wall and implosion, alternately." Jessica whispered again. This was not only to tell Franka and Razer what her next bullet would be, but also to give herself a hint, telling herself what kind of bullet she should put into the gun next?

Xiyue once gave Jessica a belt called the Hunting Gunner. It had two main abilities. One was that it could store a large number of bullets in the storage bag, and the other was that it could load bullets directly into the bound firearm.

It can be said that this is a very suitable weapon for Jessica. Others can only use it to create an infinite firepower effect, but Jessica can use it to show what fireworks are, making the enemy never guess what the effect of Jessica's next shot will be?

Bullets with functions such as healing, blocking, damage, and support may be fired from the gun barrel. This is Jessica's art of bullets.

Of course, if you want to achieve this art perfectly, you have to accurately load the bullets you want into the gun, so as not to cause the mistake of hurting your teammates or healing the enemy.

But now, Jessica does not have such ability, so Jessica chooses to tell herself through words what kind of bullets she should load.

In fact, she was not very proficient in this method at the beginning. It was only through continuous practice that Jessica gradually mastered it. Now Jessica can tell herself what kind of bullets to load through simple phrases.

Now, words like these are not only to remind myself, but also to remind my teammates whether the next bullet is a support bullet or an attack bullet.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

A series of gunshots rang out from the white pistol in Jessica's hand. The bullets flew to the building and hit the window. An earth wall was instantly formed from the point where the bullets landed, knocking out the enemies who wanted to peek and shoot.

The subsequent bullets detonated the earth wall, and the fragments of the earth wall pushed by the explosion turned into another killing weapon, directly penetrating the body of the enemy who wanted to break through the earth wall.

"Wide-area intensity mark." In order to end the test as quickly as possible, Jessica used the bullets with double markings that she had worked so hard to make.

This bullet combines two markings: wide-area detection and strength marking. Not only does it have a wide detection range, but it can also form marks of different colors in her eyes based on the strength of the person being detected.

As the bright yellow ripples spread from the point where the bullet landed, soon a shiny black spot of light in the middle of a distant building was imprinted in Jessica's eyes.

Although the duration of this bullet was so short that the effect disappeared quickly after the black spot was detected, it was enough.

Jessica immediately raised her hand and pointed at the building in the distance: “Found it!”

Chapter 156: Ishamara rejoins the group

Xiyue was sitting on the sofa drinking black tea, watching the black light flash across her body.

"Well, is this strength detection?" Xiyue recalled the information she received when she bought the bullet engraving. "However, the range of strength detection doesn't seem to be that large. Is this a combination of wide-area or super-area detection?"

"No, it should be wide area. As for transcendence, Jessica hadn't figured it out last time. But anyway, double imprinting, it seems like a new step has been taken."

Then, Xiyue put down the tea, picked up the small board on the table and wrote something.

【On-the-spot reaction: qualified】

[Bullet Tactics: Pass]

[I can use double engraving initially, but is there anything else? 】

"I've seen enough about fighting." After Xiyue finished writing, she put the board down, picked up the black tea beside her and took a sip, "Let's be a little more violent."

------------

"Understood." Razer nodded, and finally used his shield to knock down an approaching enemy. "Be careful moving forward, the number of enemies attacking seems to be increasing."

"That's easy for you to say." Franka dodged the incoming arrows by jumping back. "It's not just that they are increasing in number, they are clearly becoming more and more severe."

"Three tough shots, continuous explosive shots." Jessica gritted her teeth. Faced with the enemies that kept surrounding her, she could only take out the few level 3 engraved bullets she had.

To be honest, because the third-level imprint was too powerful for most of the enemies they would face, Jessica didn't use many of them.

So when she was studying, Jessica only learned three of them, and the explosive fire was the mark used to deal with enemies in a large area.

Jessica first fired a bullet with green light at Razer and Franka respectively, and then quickly turned the pistol around and aimed it at her own shoulder.

As the bullet with green light hit Jessica's shoulder, a green light instantly enveloped Jessica's body.

"Thank you." After realizing that she was covered with green light, Franka's movements became bolder and she no longer tried to dodge the flying arrows.

Of course, those created enemies would not let go of Franka, who was almost full of flaws at the moment. The enemies holding the road arrows instantly shot a large number of arrows at Franka.

But when Franca saw the arrows flying towards her, she still rushed towards the enemy regardless. When the arrows just touched the green light on Franca's body, they seemed to be blocked by the light. After a stalemate with the light for a while, they fell to the ground.

Although the light became dimmer each time it was blocked, this period of time was enough for Franka to rush into the enemy camp and swing the sword in her hand.

Relying on the green light on her body, Franka had no intention of defending herself in the formation and allowed the enemy's attacks to fall on her at will.

She had enjoyed Jessica's resources many times in previous battles, and she knew the approximate limit of this layer of green light. But now, it was still far from the limit.

But in the next moment, the enemy who was knocked down by Franka took out a wooden stick from his pocket, and then, in Franka's surprised eyes, he pulled the rope under the stick hard.

"Fuck, do you have to do this..." Before Franka could finish her words, the grenade in the enemy's hand exploded, blowing Franka away.

"Ling Yu." Jessica raised her gun as soon as she heard the explosion. She fired two shots at Franka with the white pistol in her hand. "Senior Franka!"

"I'm fine. Fortunately, all the light just now dissipated." Franka took a deep breath. Fortunately, Xiyue didn't really want her life. If the explosion had been a little later, and the light on Franka's body had dissipated a little, the explosion just now would have really caused a big disaster.

--------------

Bang! The door of Xiyue's room was slammed open by Razer's shield, and Jessica and the other two entered one after another.

clap clap.

Xiyue's applause rang out at this time. She looked at the three people who looked a little dusty with a smile on her face. Although she said at the beginning of the test that they might really die if they were not careful, it was just a scare.

She was very clear about Jessica's learning progress, and knew exactly which bullets Jessica had learned and what bullets she should have in her hands.

When the water life he created attacked, it almost always stuck to that line and would hurt Jessica and the others, but as long as Jessica reacted quickly, they would not suffer serious damage.

Even when using the honor bomb tactics during training or other situations where explosives are used, they are only implemented after they have a certain level of protection, and at most they only suffer minor injuries.

Just like Xiyue said at the beginning, this was just a test of Jessica's overall quality, a test of when to use which bullet and what bullet should be used, nothing more.

Xiyue was quite satisfied with the final result. It must be said that Jessica also had a certain fear of insufficient firepower.

In the battle just now, there was not a single ordinary ammunition. All of them were marked ammunition. Even the ones fired from the black pistol were either marked bullets or armor-piercing bullets.

You know, this can't be mass-produced, it has to be carved out one by one.

"Thank you for your hard work." Xiyue patted the dust off Jessica's head, then looked at Razer and Franka with a hint of apology, "I'm sorry for using more drastic measures during training."

"It's okay, it's okay." Franka patted the dust off her head, "It's just more of a running-in, although you were a little too harsh."

"Yeah." Razer nodded. "A test that will result in injury is a very common thing."

Then, Razer looked at Jessica on the side and said, "After this test, we can better understand all of Jessica's tactical styles. This is very important to us."

"Really?" Xiyue nodded. The surrounding buildings collapsed instantly, and the dark blue color covering the entire training ground quickly faded away. "Go back. Do you want to rest at my place?"

"Hmm?" Razer raised his hand. When the dark blue color faded away, he felt a little cool. The phantom pain that was originally in his body also disappeared in that instant.

"Hmm~" Franka clenched her fist, "Thank you very much."

If there is any disadvantage to Jessica's Bullet Marking, there is actually one, that is, all the healing bullets of Bullet Marking have no pain-relieving effect except for a few marks.

Although it would be very unpleasant to have phantom pain on your body during a battle, Razer and the others also requested that unless Jessica could master the ability of double imprinting, she should not waste bullets and should only engrave the imprint with pain-relieving effect.

Because all bullets with healing effects will lose the killing effect of normal bullets, wasting a bullet just to relieve pain is actually a wasteful behavior in combat.

After all, the pain you cause only once is relieved with this bullet. The next time you get hurt, the pain will come back again. Are you going to use another bullet to stop it once?

"It's nothing." Xiyue smiled, "How about it? Do you want to sit over at my place?"

Razer raised his hand and glanced at his watch: "No, it's late, and this test lasted a little too long."

"Really?" Xiyue picked up her phone and checked the time. "It seems to be a little late indeed."

"Well, do you like black tea? Or coffee?"

——————Rhode Island? Accommodation area? Corridor

"Have a good rest." Xiyue was at the intersection of the corridor, about to walk towards Jessica and others on the other side, "There will be no class tonight. After all, you have been through enough today."

"Hey, can't we go to class today?" Jessica was a little stunned when she heard Xiye's words.

"After all, it's already this late, you should have a good rest." Xiyue flicked Jessica's head, "Just think of it as giving you a day off."

"Woo~" Jessica touched her forehead that was hit, "Got it, I will have a good rest."

"That's right," Xiyue smiled and waved her hand, "See you tomorrow, everyone."

"See you tomorrow, Miss Xiyue." Franka stretched, "I'm really tired today."

"Ms. Xiyue, see you tomorrow." Razer patted Franka's lower back gently, reminding her to pay attention to her image.

"Goodbye, Teacher Xiyue."

"See you tomorrow." Xiyue waved her hand again and turned to walk towards her room. "Now let's deal with another problem."
