Chapter 144: Chapter 108: A Bloody Victory_2"That will do, Mr. Ji," the doctor said, having heard Ji Xinghuo speak of his extraordinarily strong self-healing ability. Ji Xinghuo nodded slightly, activating the Rotating Magnetic Field. Searᴄh the NôᴠeFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Instantly, pain and itching emerged from the severed hand as cells proliferated and multiplied exponentially. The skin on the wound healed in a matter of seconds, internal muscles and blood vessels rapidly reconnected, bones realigned, blood flowed into the left palm, and color returned. In the interface of Wanxiang Star Pupil, the left hand section of the human body avatar reappeared. Star Power surged into his left hand, further accelerating the healing. Ji Xinghuo regained sensation in his hand, tried to move it, and there was no delay. A few minutes later, the left hand had fully recovered as if nothing had happened, and Thousand Spirit Skillful Hand was completely undamaged. The surgeon was dumbfounded. He had never seen such powerful self-healing ability in his many years of medical practice. Still, he earnestly reminded, "Mr. Ji, even after reattaching the severed hand, try not to overuse the left hand in the near future. It would be best to rest for a few months to avoid any long-term effects." "Okay, thank you, doctor." After thanking the doctor, Ji Xinghuo left the clinic to find Jing Ji, with Yuan Chongzhen and Alex waiting outside. Both of them had been treated for their injuries. Yuan Chongzhen’s injuries were the lightest, and as the Blood Butcher, Alex could heal quickly as long as his Star Power recovered. Just as he was about to speak, Jing Ji came out of the door. Though still looking weak, he was able to move freely. Yuan Chongzhen asked in surprise, "You are already healed?" "No," Jing Ji shook his head, "I’m definitely not going to die, but it nearly cost me half my life. Don’t be fooled by my ability to walk; I’m still weak and could collapse at any touch. I’ve retained less than a tenth of my strength and will need at least a full year to completely recover." "You should be grateful to be alive," Yuan Chongzhen finally relaxed. Ji Xinghuo also patted Jing Ji’s shoulder, using his left hand. It was then that the three of them noticed Ji Xinghuo’s left hand was reattached and looked as though it had never been severed. Yuan Chongzhen examined it closely and asked suspiciously, "Isn’t your hand just attached and frail, ready to break upon touch?" "Believe it or not, I can kill you with one punch?" Ji Xinghuo joked, throwing an air punch with his left hand. Bang! The air exploded with a muffled sound. Yuan Chongzhen jumped in fright. By now, Ji Xinghuo appeared to him as a monster, especially after witnessing Ji Xinghuo battling the Legendary Dagon person and ultimately killing his opponent. From then on, whatever exaggerated act Ji Xinghuo performed, he found it to be expected. An Intermediate Mutant going head-to-head with a Legendary fighter, not only surviving but also killing the legend, would hardly be believed if told. But he had seen it with his own eyes! Only at this moment did Jing Ji and the others realize what Ji Xinghuo had accomplished. The thought was so unbelievable that their minds were filled with astonishment! Realizing their thoughts, Ji Xinghuo said, "Let’s talk about this outside." The four of them paid an exorbitant medical fee and went to a nearby restaurant. They booked a private room where Ji Xinghuo took out the Legendary Dagon person’s Longsword from his Dimension Stomach, placing it on the table. Their eyes widened. In fact, they had been curious about how Ji Xinghuo had won and why the Longsword of the Dagon person had suddenly disappeared. Now that Ji Xinghuo was openly displaying the Longsword, they finally confirmed it. Ji Xinghuo likely possessed the legendary Space Equipment. Their gaze fell on the rings and the thumb ring on Ji Xinghuo’s hand, speculating which might contain space. Ji Xinghuo let them misunderstand and did not explain, saying, "I hope you all can keep this secret for me." "Of course," Jing Ji laughed. "I never talk recklessly," Yuan Chongzhen swore. Alex nodded slightly. "What I mean is that we need to keep the details of this battle a secret," Ji Xinghuo said, "The four of us encountered a legendary Dagon, fought together, paid a painful price, and finally managed to kill the enemy. I just delivered the final blow to the Dagon." The three of them understood, Ji Xinghuo wanted to downplay his importance in the battle. In fact, they knew that without Ji Xinghuo, it wouldn’t have been possible to kill the legendary Dagon, and they would be dead by now. At least eighty percent of the credit for this victory belonged to Ji Xinghuo. If the news spread, Ji Xinghuo’s name would become known worldwide, and as an intermediate Mutant, he would climb up the rankings, securing a spot at the top. "I can accept being famous, but I don’t want to attract too much attention for the time being," Ji Xinghuo explained, "I hope you guys can understand me." Jing Ji didn’t quite understand, but he still nodded, "No problem." "So we’ll agree on the story, that the four of us put in roughly equal effort and finally killed the legendary Dagon by fighting desperately," Yuan Chongzhen said. Alex made no objection. It was then that Yuan Chongzhen asked, "How do we divide the spoils of war?" Suddenly, all four pairs of eyes fell on the longsword on the table. The bounty and points could be divided equally among the four of them, but the sword was a more complicated issue. Ji Xinghuo picked up the longsword and examined it closely, finding characters engraved at the end of the hilt that must be in the script of the Dagon people. Alex glanced at it and said, "Demon Sound." Seeing everyone’s surprise, he explained, "I’ve studied the Dagon language and understand some of their script. ’Demon Sound’ is probably the name of this sword." "Demon Sound..." Yuan Chongzhen shook his head, "The sound haunts the ear, quite fitting indeed." Ji Xinghuo sensed the characteristics of Demon Sound: it weighed about 10 kilograms, was around one meter twenty in length, had a faint blue blade as wide as a palm, with edges like waves, seven crests running from tip to base, and a hollowed-out spine. Its overall design was very unique, not to mention its formidable power. Demon Sound came with five Ability effects, all related to sound. It could unleash Ultrasonic Sword Energy, with its lethality and range depending on the consumed Star Power; Sound Form allowed its bearer to possess powerful hearing abilities, to identify and lock onto targets through sound; Beeping Scream was a wide-range negative effect, continuously emitting high-decibel noise, impacting the enemy’s mind, and affecting morale; Sound Explosion was a sonic burst that instantly harmed enemies that were too close; Sound Spear was a ranged attack, throwing an invisible spear of sound waves, causing both physical and mental damage. This sword was a Superpower Three Stars weapon! Ji Xinghuo handed the sword over for the other three to examine, all of whom could not help but marvel at it, having experienced its might firsthand and having had a hard time with it. "A Three Stars weapon!" Jing Ji stroked the Wave Sword Blade, "If we were to auction it off, it could sell for at least two to three hundred million, right?" "We certainly can’t sell it!" Yuan Chongzhen shook his head, "With the money from the sale, it would be impossible to buy back a weapon of the same caliber." Selling it would be the most foolish choice. "So, keep it for our own use?" Jing Ji was a bit disappointed; he was accustomed to using daggers, never swords. The blade of Demon Sound was too long, inconvenient for a Phantom Assassin to use. Plus, he was already an Illusion Sound Master, and several of the effects of Demon Sound overlapped with his own Abilities, and the abilities that did not overlap, he could master in the future. Yuan Chongzhen and Alex exchanged glances; one was a Half-orc, the other a Blood Butcher, they didn’t use weapons in combat at all. The three of them looked at Ji Xinghuo; his weapon was a knife, but switching to a sword wouldn’t be much of a problem for him. Ji Xinghuo indeed wanted the sword, so he said, "I’ll take Demon Sound, give up my share of the bounty, and compensate you guys with some cash."
