Retired for A Hundred Years: Re-Employment for the Apocalypse Bigshot!-Chapter 432 - 427: Beijing Training Camp (Part 5)
Ji Ning’s expression remained calm, without any emotion, "I know, but if I tell you, what can you do with him? Can you break through the defenses of that level 14 superpower user and kill him?"
Ji Hong, enraged, clenched her fists and paced back and forth in the room.
"Even if I can’t kill him, as a level 12 multi-system superpower user, I can still hurt him."
"And then?" Ji Ning’s voice turned colder, "Continue being a fugitive, chased to the ends of the earth, and then die unclear and unjustly?"
Ji Hong was speechless, her anger slightly rationalized.
"Are we just going to let these scumbags continue to roam free?" Ji Hong’s eyes were glistening, pointing in a direction, she questioned, "Ji Ning, are you with them? Are you going to cover for them too? Just because they are from those three families?"
Ji Ning sighed, "No, but dealing with them is not now."
"Then when? Do I have the life to wait until then?" The look in Ji Hong’s eyes carried despair and a hint of wanting to destroy everything.
Ji Ning raised her hand to control her slightly out-of-control superpower, saying very calmly, "Ji Hong, for us, killing a person is the simplest thing, but after killing him, then what? You’ve seen it, the construction of that island is not something a single person can decide, it’s a massive force, destroying one person is too easy, but destroying a force?"
Ji Hong was slightly dazed, somewhat defiant, "Then I’ll just charge forward! Even if I have to lay down my life, I won’t let them have it easy."
Ji Ning chuckled, "A reckless act of courage solves nothing. Do you think by wiping out a laboratory you can prevent these things from happening? Do you know about the Eternal Life Sect in the West Continent?"
Ji Hong shook her head.
"The Eternal Life Sect implants chips that store memory data of the cult followers into the brains of ordinary people and superpower users, the lives lost to wrongful death are not fewer than what you’ve discovered, yet their followers have reached 680,000 globally. Can you kill them all?"
Ji Hong was shocked, staring at Ji Ning as if stunned by this number, "680,000? Who did this?"
"Ji Family Army." 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢
Ji Ning laughed self-deprecatingly, her eyes showing complex emotions, "If you really want to relate them, Ji Family Army could be considered the legacy left to me. Should I also be responsible for their actions over the past hundred years?"
"Then... what do you plan to do?" Ji Hong’s emotions slowly calmed down, even showing some sympathy for Ji Ning.
"After the competition ends, I will go to the West Continent. In this meantime, I hope you can help me with something."
"What help?"
"Infiltrate Beizhou, and help me find out the real situation inside."
Ji Hong’s expression became serious, she looked at Ji Ning for a long time, finally nodding solemnly.
"Alright, I promise you."
...
After Ji Hong left, Huang Ying walked into the room, "Finished talking? How does it feel to see the person most like yourself?"
"She like me? Forget it."
Ji Ning felt a bit of a headache, just like when seeing the mess left by Ji Family Army and having to clean it up herself.
Huang Ying’s lips curved slightly upwards, "When I spent those days with her on the ship, frankly, her personality was most like the Commander described in the history books—decisive and if unconvinced, just do it!"
Ji Ning glanced at her, half-smiling, "Do you think putting down the devils and monsters in a chaotic world requires only force? If it were that simple, at least half of Hua Continent’s population would be gone now."
Huang Ying rubbed her arms, "That many?"
"Do you think the chaotic world was like now, constrained by so many rules and lines binding the moral bottom line of humanity? Most people at that time were not human..."
Huang Ying’s heart tightened, the lightness on her face gradually faded away.
Ji Ning didn’t want to say more, stood up and walked outside.
The second round of training was over, she needed to act as a nanny to this group of kids.
***
In the mini training sessions, there were new surprises in every round, letting students constantly refresh their understanding of Ji Ning and Huang Ying.
Even Principal Zhang, who had settled in the evening, stood far from the two despite being on the second floor.
Who could have imagined that a proper straight serve would be transformed by them into random aerial shots from various angles, just like some kind of missile on guidance, the target was set, but you’d never guess the process.
Heh, they were playing mind games.
Principal Zhang, watching the students scurrying around the training field, rolling and crawling under the bombardment of tennis balls, dared not open his phone’s camera to send training videos to the parents.
Finally——
The last round of training came to an end.
The students lay sprawling across the ground like corpses.
Even if Ye Tong saw this, they would praise these students for their layered performance.
"Is it over? I’m going down to pick them up." Principal Zhang’s face was full of heartache as he smoothly headed toward the door.
Once outside, his steps quickened significantly, skipping the elevator and directly running down the stairs.
Ji Ning couldn’t understand Principal Zhang’s anxious mindset like an old father seeing his kids trained into "corpses," while beside her, Huang Ying was adjusting everyone’s upcoming training plans on the Smart Brain screen showing the training data.
"You Le’s superpower should awaken in the next few days," Huang Ying pointed out her peak value at a certain stage of training, "Currently has already reached the average level of a level 2 Support Ability User."
Ji Ning nodded slightly, "Next stage, strengthen her endurance training."
Huang Ying paused, "Endurance? Not strength?"
Ji Ning glanced at her, "Support Ability isn’t limited to awakening just one."
Huang Ying was surprised, because in her knowledge, most Support Ability Users spend a lifetime with one body alteration ability, rarely someone would train a second alteration.
Mainly because bodily alterations require accumulated daily training to achieve, one alteration already consumes a lot of time, and if altering another, will you abandon the existing ability to practice the new superpower?
Ji Ning knew what she was thinking, smiled lightly, "If you all practiced the Body Refinement Realm I taught since childhood, and then find a Healing Ability User to assist. Not to say everyone in Hua Continent would be a superpower user, at least the number of Support Ability Users would increase fivefold, and you might even gain a few more superpowers."
"Bang——"
The chair under Huang Ying clattered to the ground.
Her hands slapped on the Smart Brain screen, her face filled with excitement as she looked at Ji Ning.
"Are you serious?"
Ji Ning glanced at her again, too lazy to answer such a pointless question.
Huang Ying pondered for a moment, raising objections, "But the original Ji Ning’s Body Refinement Realm practice difficulty coefficient is very high, if not done properly, it’s easy to injure oneself."
"That’s why a Healing Ability User needs to assist nearby," Ji Ning glanced at her again.
Huang Ying remembered that when she trained at a base before, there indeed was a Healing Ability User stationed nearby, but they rarely intervened.
"But there are too few Healing Ability Users."
Ji Ning nodded, "Such is human nature, after all, life only happens once."
Huang Ying froze for a moment, her gaze at Ji Ning filled with complex emotions.
Honestly, the more she interacted with Ji Ning, the more she couldn’t figure her out.
Sometimes, she felt Ji Ning possessed great righteousness, sympathized with the weak, wouldn’t tolerate injustice, but she equally acknowledged human selfishness and malice, even forgiving some minor villains like Ah Da and others.
Even Ji Hong, with hands stained with lives, she was willing to give her a chance to atone.
