RWWOKS Chapter 230

This entry is part 231 of 247 in the series The Reincarnation World Where Only I Know the Storyline

“Did you find him?”

By the time Fang Bo hurried over, he discovered that Olsen had already been rescued by the ghost spiders.

Looking at his battered comrade, who was barely recognizable, Fang Bo immediately activated his healing spell.

[Healing Spell successfully cast. You consumed 80 HP, restoring 216 HP to the target.]

Unfortunately, he couldn’t absorb experience from other reincarnators, or else he would have maxed out all his basic skills by now.

The reincarnators’ bodies were uniquely structured, and their data-driven nature suppressed the possibility of “explosions” while granting significant special effects.

For instance, after Olsen’s health was restored, he stood up from the ground without any visible issues—aside from the mental exhaustion, he appeared no different from his usual self.

“You were too slow,” Olsen’s first words were sharp.

Seeing him still trying to act tough, Fang Bo felt relieved.

As they walked out, the two began discussing the details of the current narrative world.

Upon hearing that Fang Bo had found his team, Olsen curiously asked about its members.

When he learned that both Kyo Kusanagi and Iori Yagami were in the same group, Olsen almost lost his cool and broke character.

“You’re impressive,” he said, giving the highest praise among men.

As for Olsen, he still didn’t understand why their movements had been detected by the enemy.

“It doesn’t matter anymore. It’s all out in the open. Now we just have to see how each of us handles it,” Fang Bo replied casually.

Speaking of the Chosen One, Olsen’s face turned serious. “I know you killed her once, but don’t underestimate her. Her talents truly deserve the title of ‘mythic.'”

“How so?” Fang Bo asked.

“From what I know, Konstantin can implant a slave mark in someone’s body. Those branded become scapegoats.”

Fang Bo started to understand. “So we have to kill all the slaves to truly defeat her?”

“Yeah, pretty much. I thought I’d finished her off when I killed one of her slave bodies, but… I didn’t expect what happened next.”

Olsen’s expression darkened as he recalled the scene.

Had he known the enemy’s abilities, he wouldn’t have been so easily defeated.

On the other hand, the Chosen One had all of Olsen’s information, making the battle inherently unfair.

Fang Bo gave Olsen a suspicious look. “You didn’t fall for it, did you? Waiting for me to lower my guard and then attacking from behind?”

“You really have a rich imagination. You’d make a great writer.”

“If I were a writer, I’d probably be starving by now.”

Olsen’s team had already assembled, and now he needed to find a new squad to join.

“You could try joining the Fury Team. Weip was taken out, and you can replace her.”

Since he had just helped the Fury Team root out a traitor, Hardy Lan would likely welcome his request.

As for whether he could pass the trial, Fang Bo believed that with Olsen’s skills, he’d surely make the cut.

After undergoing two world trials, Olsen had made incredible progress.

Once the orphanage’s most outstanding newcomer, he was now a superhuman, with maxed-out attributes across three major stats.

Well, Fang Bo had killed quite a few opponents like that and could guess Olsen’s power level.

If he activated the Serpent’s Blood, his combat abilities would likely rival the “Ability User Chizoku” whom Fang Bo had once slain.

Without special means, Fang Bo believed Olsen might still fall short in a direct confrontation, but who knew? Maybe Olsen had some secret weapon hidden away.

The two chatted casually as they made their way to the entrance of the base.

The place had already turned into a sea of corpses, with countless cloned soldiers littering the ground.

It was hard to estimate the exact number, but even the ghost spiders seemed to have their fill.

“Be careful not to overeat,” Fang Bo said with a smirk.

Just then, he noticed a figure floating in the sky.

Without Gonitz keeping watch, how could he have so easily taken over the base? Even this group of cloned soldiers was enough to give Fang Bo a headache.

He realized that Gonitz’s storm power was indeed perfect for mowing down enemies.

Those lacking strength couldn’t fight effectively against her. The only question was how costly controlling the raging winds would be.

Seeing the female priest’s “just want to lose” demeanor, Fang Bo couldn’t be bothered to speak with her.

The only reason she helped him was likely due to the possibility of Serpent’s Blood being involved here.

Seeing she didn’t say much, Fang Bo guessed Gonitz must have found something valuable.

Activating his Qi Sense quietly, he could feel that her strength had grown even more formidable. It must be due to absorbing Serpent’s Blood.

“Old Gonitz’s increasing power is a good thing. At least when we face Ignis, we’ll have a better chance.”

For now, all he had to do was wait.

The orphanage’s elites had missed their target and were probably rushing here as fast as they could.

In addition, the Fury Team’s mercenaries had already set out.

When the time came for a coordinated attack, they might be able to wipe out the orphanage’s strongest fighters here.

“She leveled up.”

Fang Bo turned his head at the sound of the excited voice from the Joro Spider. His gaze fell on the newly-formed third-tier ghost spider.

Thanks to the massive number of clone soldiers, he now had five powerful battle-ready Killing Spider Guards.

“Great, our chances of victory just increased.”

—-

[If I had that vial of blood, I could create a brand-new ghost spider.]

The Joro Spider was still complaining that the woman didn’t know how to share the spoils.

Fang Bo could only pretend not to hear.

There would be plenty of large battles ahead. Getting more Serpent’s Blood wouldn’t be difficult.

As he quietly pondered, Gonitz, who had just landed, suddenly shot up into the sky.

Everyone looked up and saw a small black dot rapidly approaching.

“Orphanage people,” Fang Bo muttered briefly, then immediately activated his Floating Boost.

He was too far away from the enemy, beyond the range of his artifacts.

Under normal conditions, his range was around 300 meters, but activating the Nightmare Power would extend it to 400 meters.

It seemed like a long distance, but the enemy was still at least 1,700 meters away, which meant it would take several seconds for them to enter effective shooting range.

“He’s a tough one at the second difficulty level, surely he can last a few more seconds,” Fang Bo mused.

As it turned out, Fang Bo had overestimated his opponent.

Even with a full arsenal of weapons, the user, known as Xiao Fei, couldn’t launch them.

The fierce winds surrounding him had completely sealed off his flight path.

He tried firing a heat-seeking missile, but the wind redirected it, nearly causing him to injure himself.

That delay was all it took for Gonitz to enter the range where she could strike.

Standing proudly in the sky, the female priest raised one hand, and countless wind blades instantly enveloped Xiao Fei.

Ultimate Skill: Night Wind!

“Ah!!!” The reincarnator let out a blood-curdling scream, feeling as though he were being subjected to slow, torturous death.

At this rate, he would be killed before Fang Bo could even reach the scene.

Seeing the unrelenting wind blades continue to lash at him, Xiao Fei gritted his teeth through the pain and pulled a high-quality magical scroll from his pocket.

“Don’t think you can do whatever you want.”

A green light flared, and a different kind of wind power spread out, finally dispelling the terrifying wind that had been restricting him.

Wind Protection, from the narrative world Re:Zero, granted immunity to 80% of wind-type damage for a short period.

Even someone as powerful as Gonitz couldn’t casually torment him anymore.

“Interesting,” Gonitz smiled coldly, a bloodthirsty madness in her eyes.

She glanced at Fang Bo, who was rapidly approaching, and with a smirk, she shouted, “Stay out of this!”

Fang Bo helplessly stopped in his tracks, watching the two engage in a chase-and-escape game.

Since Gonitz had said so, it was clear she intended to deal with the enemy alone.

Interfering now would definitely offend her, and for a mere few thousand narrative points, it wasn’t worth it.

“Forget it, I’ll just observe her combat style.”

Suppressing his desire to intervene, Fang Bo focused on watching and learning.

The day he would master the Flying Thunder God Technique was getting closer. Once he had spatial movement abilities, he would need to increase his close-quarters combat experience.

In that regard, very few people in The King of Fighters could rival Gonitz.

Even in her youth, before she gained the Serpent’s Blood power, Gonitz had defeated the fully mature Rugal Bernstein in a few exchanges, even cruelly taking one of his eyes.

From this, it was clear how terrifying her mastery of combat techniques was.

Or perhaps, it was her incredible battle insight that far surpassed all other human martial artists.

Fang Bo, adopting his usual approach of “learn from the strongest,” began to carefully observe her fighting posture.

Soon, he realized that while keeping a mid-to-long range distance was manageable, if Gonitz closed in, it was essentially a death sentence.

The reincarnator who had been flying around was a perfect example of this.

By the time Xiao Fei landed, his body plummeted to the ground almost simultaneously.

“Poor guy,” Fang Bo shook his head, regretting that he didn’t get the opportunity to open his box.

But it didn’t matter; the orphanage’s forces had arrived in large numbers, so he wouldn’t be short on suitable targets.

On top of that, Gonitz might take the chance to absorb more Serpent’s Blood.

When they had first arrived, Fang Bo had noticed that she had been eyeing his comrade, Olsen, multiple times. She must have sensed the Serpent’s Blood inside him.

If it weren’t for his intervention, she might have taken Olsen’s blood for herself.

“Many of the reincarnators from the orphanage have Serpent’s Blood inside them.”

“Once this battle is over, Gonitz’s power will definitely increase again.”

At this point, Gonitz was already a top-tier fighter, and if she gained even more strength, she would be close to having boss-level power.

If he roughly estimated, she would at least be on par with Iori Yagami in his berserk state.

Of course, it might not be enough to deal with Ignis, so he would have to figure out a way to help Gonitz gain even more Serpent’s Blood.

The orphanage had been preparing for years, and who knew how many hidden trump cards they had. The more thoroughly prepared they could be, the better.

While Fang Bo was lost in thought, the ghost spiders had already devoured Xiao Fei’s corpse.

Soon, the sixth third-tier ghost spider was born.

Still following the path of evolution for the Killing Spider Guard, he was pursuing the highest possible offensive power. The enemy’s clone army was just too numerous.

Even with high damage resistance, too many punches would still result in a one-hit kill.

Boom!

The distant sound of a transport aircraft’s roar echoed through the sky.

Looking up, everyone saw the distinct logo of the Nests Organization flash across the horizon.

The orphanage’s main force had finally returned.
