Former Interstellar Mercenary In Urban Cultivation World -
Chapter 133: Chunk of Flesh
Chapter 133: Chunk of Flesh
Being a mercenary in her previous lige, Amalia like to emphasized techniques for swift and lethal strikes, focusing on vital points and minimizing unnecessary movements.
This stark contrasted with the soft theoretical content taught by some tutors.
For these enthusiastic and spirited young individuals, they preferred content that aroused their passion.
Amalia’s teachings perfectly catered to their tastes, and igniting their fighting spirit.
After an hour, these students immediately clamored and rushed to the Combat Hall, they were eager to test what Amalia had taught them.
Students from other classes thought Class 9 had collectively gone insane, which frightening them and prompting them to distance themselves from class 9.
"Is Class 9 take on some weird drugs?"
"Who knows, they might be on something every day. Let’s forget about it, we need to hurry to class. It’s the ’Mad Woman’s’ class today."
"In that case, let’s move. Last time, someone got punished for being one second late and had to do handstands and run 5 laps around the teaching building."
The onlookers dispersed quickly.
There were multiple Combat Halls, and Class 9 secretly trained within one of this combat halls without other classes know about it.
This secrecy led to Class 9’s outstanding performance during the school’s internal ranking competition, and propelling the once-hidden Amalia into the limelight again.
...
When the time she agreed with Xylia Lazaro came, Amalia left the weaponry departement.
Upon arriving at the meeting point, Xyllia Lazaro and his friend were already standing there.
It was unclear how early they had arrived; the former seemed very nervous while the latter appeared to be comforting him.
Amalia walked up to the two of them without speaking, and simply handing the artifact to Xyllia Lazaro.
She knew that he was most concerned about his artifact.
And seeing the previously broken pieces artifact seamlessly joined together again, and showing no trace of damage, Xyllia Lazaro opened his mouth in disbelief.
She had actually done it—she repaired his artifact!
"This is the first time I’ve repaired a shattered artifact like this. I didn’t have better materials on hand, so even though the artifact is repaired, its power hasn’t reached its peak state. At most, it can retain seventy to eighty percent of its original strength," Amalia explained, and noticing his silence.
Xyllia Lazaro and his friend were astonished; the former stammered, and said: "What are you saying? This artifact is only at seventy to eighty percent of its power? No, no, no, I mean, it still retains seventy to eighty percent? That’s unbelievable!"
"How dare you doubt my abilities?" Amalia furrowed her brow.
"No, no, no..." Worried she might misunderstand.
Xyllia Lazaro vigorously shook his head, his eyes were shining, and said: "I trust you. It’s just that I’ve consulted with many artificers at school, and they said they could, at most, restore only ten to twenty percent. How did you manage to achieve this?"
His friend tugged at his clothes, and signaling that such questions weren’t necessary; different artificers have their own methods, and perhaps even secret ones.
Xyllia Lazaro realized this too and awkwardly brushed his hair back, asking, "How much does it cost in total?"
Amalia thrn mentioned a price, which seemed rather high.
"I’ll transfer it right away."
Xyllia Lazaro didn’t find it unreasonable—even if it were twice the amount, considering the restoration of an artifact could restore its strength to seventy to eighty percent, it likely required a significant amount of good materials.
"Hey, Amalia, do you take other artifact repair jobs too?" Xyllia Lazaro’s friend, after witnessing Amalia’s skill, also became interested.
"Recently, I’ve decided not to take any more orders for the next month," Amalia declined.
It was a decision she made yesterday, intending to avoid using her spiritual abilities as much as possible.
In this way, she wouldn’t have to contact Kenny Lin again.
For the upcoming time, she wanted to spend some quality time alone to thinking about herself.
Xyllia Lazaro’s friend looked disappointed and asked eagerly, "Does that mean you’ll start taking orders again after a month?"
Amalia nodded.
Xyllia Lazaro’s friend felt better, and then both of them watched Amalia leave.
"Xylia, you’ve made the right bet this time. This classmate Amalia hides her skills well. I believe before long, she might even surpass that arrogant guy, Rasler Yoder."
As he spoke, he glanced at Xyllia Lazaro, who was lost in thought while staring at the artifact in his hand.
After a few moment, a joyful smile suddenly appeared on his face.
"Yeah, but I think that Rasler Yoder is nothing," Xyllia Lazaro’s voice turned cold.
"Sure, he’s talented, but his current abilities are solely thanks to his family’s training. He only holds his position in the first year because of that. On the other hand, Amalia, a student from a humble background, already possesses skills that rival Rasler Yoder’s. I believe she’ll surpass him in the future."
"You really have a high opinion of her," his friend then teased him, saying: "Could it be that you have a soft spot for her?"
"Get out of here! I’m just speaking the truth. Don’t you want to see Rasler Yoder being taken down from the pedestal that the Yoder family built for him?"
Xyllia Lazaro then lifted the corners of her mouth, "I, for example, really looking forward to it."
"Speaking of which, I’m quite eager too. The Yoder family has dominated the artifact market in fruut nation for too many years," the friend’s eyes held a fervent anticipation.
The Yoder family had been overbearing for far too long, so much so that many spirit cultivators disliked them.
...
Amalia decided to minimize the time she had spent on refining artifacts and also refrain from repairing others’ artifacts for some time.
However, without income, she couldn’t avoid spending money and needed to find a way to earn.
Just as she was pondering, she suddenly remembered the two storage items Kenny Lin had given her last night.
Upon returning to her dormitory, she took them out, and curious about their contents.
As the contents in it being spilled out, Amalia nearly retched from the intense foul odor that quickly filled the small dormitory space.
Holding her breath, Amalia noticed the scattered chunks of meat, bones, claws, and other remnants, all coated with fresh blood and flesh.
At a glance, she recognized most of these items as materials that was used for refining artifacts.
The only oddity was the flesh pieces, which is giving her a different sensation.
Picking up one chunk of flesh, she examined it closely and realized these pieces contained spiritual energy that hadn’t dissipated yet.
It was likely because they were freshly severed and hadn’t been in the storage item for long.
Her heart suddenly raced, and thumping rapidly.
Amalia almost jumped as she had a realization.
