Chapter 221 - 145 Practice Stick
After the interlude, under Shana’s guidance, everyone safely arrived at the countystandard. Lin Wu gave Maya his astonished expression as a result. Maya, however, didn’t say much; she was still the no-nonsense Maya. Maya knew Shana was smarter than her, just ’not focused on proper business.’ Shana could sing, do gymnastics, dance, cook, and so much more. While Maya’s only goal was to become an excellent soldier.
After a brief rest at the supermarket base, Nightmare came back from an outing and, as promised, handed over a Heavy Weapon Skill Book, which made Lin Wu grow a bit of fondness for her. Even if she was a baddie, she was a trustworthy baddie, and that kind of person is worth associating with.
The heavy weapon specialization is a passive skill; to put it simply, the heavier the weapon, the stronger its power. ’Power’ includes effects such as stunning, executing, and knocking down.
The 25-kilogram Vajra spade that Little Knife gave to Snow Egg already had a 25% chance of execution. Moreover, heavy weapons are the only group-attack close-combat weapons, and their effects when swung at enemies are exceedingly good.
Horse Soul’s only conclusion was: In order to advance himself, he needed to find a girlfriend. No, just a woman would do. No, someone like a woman would work. No, anyone human would suffice.
Snow Egg, however, knew how to be gracious; upon receiving the Skill Book, she immediately thanked Lin Wu, who accepted it. As it was getting late, Maya and the others said their goodbyes, returning to Shadow and agreeing to meet again at the Bounty Hunter Hall in three days.
Nightmare and Shana seemed very unfamiliar with each other, barely speaking at all. While Lin Wu was clearing zombies in the supermarket, Nightmare was reading in the library, and Shana had taken her book to read by the fireside outside.
About fifteen minutes later, Lin Wu returned, "Let’s go."
"Where to?" Shana asked as she followed him, reaching the southeast corner washroom of the supermarket lobby, where she found a place to bathe.
