Chapter 596 -362: Forcefully Seizing the Sword in the Stone, Baili Xueyuan’s Friendly Sponsorship

‘That Wizard in the shadows must be wary of the Tier Four Powerhouses watching from the sidelines, especially Jabari and Carl. If I were truly cornered, those two would never continue to just watch.’

MacLeod hadn’t felt this much pressure in a long time.

After a few seconds of contemplation, MacLeod spoke up. “You three, how about we talk? Since you’re Mercenaries, your goal must be just the commission, right? Surely you don’t want to make an enemy of the Round Table Conference, or even the Super Alliance…”

MacLeod had made his decision.

Stall!

If he could just stall for another two minutes, reinforcements from the Round Table Conference would arrive.

…

Just as MacLeod deployed his stalling tactic, Lin Qi was walking along, his brow slightly furrowed.

‘The pressure is a little intense!’

‘Simultaneously supporting two Tier Four Powerhouses, one of whom is Master Ma, whose Will Power has surged to the Tier Four Limit.’

Lin Qi’s Spiritual Power was draining with extreme speed.

In less than a minute, Lin Qi had already used up nearly two-thirds of his Spiritual Power.

‘And what about the Spiritual Power I absorbed from MacLeod?’

‘A drop in the bucket!’

With a Tier Four Peak Extraordinary actively resisting, the amount of Spiritual Power Lin Qi could absorb was extremely limited.

‘If I can’t replenish my Spiritual Power, Master Ma and King Arthur will be in danger in another thirty seconds.’

‘Once my support starts to show signs of weakening, MacLeod is bound to notice.’

Walking beside him, Liu Xuan glanced at Lin Qi and asked, “Lin Qi, what’s wrong? You seem a little distracted.”

Lin Qi shook his head and said, “It’s nothing. I’m just thinking about the follow-up for the Phase Theory. After I take you back to your room to rest, I need to make another trip to the Circular Experimental Field. The researchers from Nanyun Potion put in so much effort, I still need to provide them with some follow-up support.”

As he answered Liu Xuan, Lin Qi was wracking his brain for a solution.

Under the coverage of his Spiritual Vision, Lin Qi’s gaze suddenly locked onto a person.

His slightly furrowed brow instantly relaxed.

‘It seems there’s a solution to my Spiritual Power problem.’

‘A ready-made Tier Four Peak power bank, isn’t there one right here!’

Lin Qi immediately cast “Spiritual Power Absorption” on Baili Xueyuan.

…

Outside the 66th-floor glass curtain wall of the S-Class Pharmacy Society Mansion, the airborne Baili Xueyuan’s eyes suddenly widened.

‘This familiar feeling…’

‘This forced taking…’

‘This completely irresistible Spiritual Power Extraction…’

‘This is the technique of that Mercenary Corps member, that Dead Ghost!’

Baili Xueyuan had some understanding of the battle situation by sensing the fluctuations of Will Power she had encountered in the underground pipes.

‘It seems my Dead Ghost is about to be forced to play his trump card.’

‘That means he’s under a lot of pressure.’

After a moment of simple thought, Baili Xueyuan’s expression returned to normal.

At the same time, Baili Xueyuan quietly loosened the restrictions on her own Spiritual Power.

‘Although that Dead Ghost is attacking MacLeod in the name of the Mercenary Corps, I could tell from Master Ma’s initial tone that he was definitely acting with some emotion.’

‘Why was he emotional?’

‘For me, of course…’

‘That Dead Ghost isn’t even this good to his own wife. If his wife had been bullied by a Tier Four Peak, he definitely wouldn’t have had such a big reaction.’

‘It’s just a little Spiritual Power, isn’t it? I’ll just consider it as me helping out from the shadows.’

‘Besides, MacLeod won’t know I contributed my power anyway.’

‘It’s just some measly Spiritual Power. Drain it! Drain as much as you want! Go on, crank up the power!’

Baili Xueyuan thought to herself, wishing she could stuff even more Spiritual Power down the pipeline.
