Chapter 143 I Will Recognize You Even If You Turn into Ash (2/2)
The great white wolf was beaten up badly. Realizing that it was beyond its ability to retaliate and other executives were unable to help, it turned and fled the scene. Han Xiao had already expected this, and right then, he fired his Berserk Eagles at the great white wolf's eyes, activating the [Flaming Will].
This time, the damage was increased by 3.2 times!
Boom!
The great white wolf's eyes exploded, and it groaned in pain as it fell onto the deck. The whole barge shook for a second. Zhang Wei immediately dealt another blow. With his ammunition emptied, Zhang Wei's arm armor extended into a golden sword. He leapt as his exoskeleton provided him with the energy and latched onto the great white wolf's body as he slashed it violently many times.
The others came forward to help and eventually killed the great white wolf together.
Just then, the backup troops finally arrived at the port and let off a signal flare to signal for them to retreat. At that moment, Zhang Wei turned and asked Han Xiao, ”Han… Black Phantom, do you want to leave with us?”
”No, thanks.” Han Xiao waved his hand.
”Alright, thanks for your help, I'll remember this. Stardragon will also remember this!”
Zhang Wei's speech had a hidden meaning. Together with his troops, he turned and leapt onto the assault boat. Lin Yalin stared in Han Xiao's direction.
As members of the Division 13 were withdrawing, Han Xiao activated his electromagnetic skating shoes and jumped onto the shore. He rushed for the truck that had been following him around automatically, jumped into the driver's seat, switched it to manual driving, and left the shore speedily.
Hila, who was wet through and through, climbed onto the ship. Fighting off her dizziness, she glared at the departing truck. She was always the one treating people like that, but this time around, she had actually had a taste of her own medicine.
”Black Phantom, I will remember you!” Hila eyes froze as her body healed quickly.
The Germinal troops arrived at the port and released a torpedo, causing the sea mines to explode. With the water exploding, they successfully entered the open sea.
Hesla's navy also came by and was not reconciled to not giving chase. Both ships were restricted by each other. In the midst of the firing the cannons, the Germinal ship sank.
Based on the battle strategies, the Germinal's forces broke free from the attacks and escaped.
However, based on the damages suffered from the battle, Germinal lost seventy percent of their troops while Hesla's losses were less than ten percent of what Germinal had lost. With that being said, victory was definitely not Germinal's.
Although they had not been able to stop all the Germinal forces, both nations were able to achieve the battle objective of damaging the enemy.
All in all, the winners of the battle were Stardragon and Hesla.
…
Through the window, Han Xiao glanced at the sea. As the destruction from the sea battle slowly went out of sight, he shook his head.
”The battle is over.”
Han Xiao glanced at Frenzied Sword, who seemed to have revived and was sitting beside him, and wrote him a mission with no requirements. Frenzied Sword had taken a stab for him, and thus, he would give him some EXP even if he did not need to.
The description of the mission was actually the reward for taking a stab for Han Xiao, and that made Frenzied Sword surprised. His action was purely voluntarily as he thought it was okay for him to die but Han Xiao must not. He did not expect any reward, and he became even more determined to protect Han Xiao.
After giving the reward, Han Xiao turned to his own interface and grinned from ear to ear.

The great white wolf that he had fought against with Zhang Wei was a LV 45 character. As it was a joint battle, the additional EXP obtained was little. However, the requirement for advancement could be said to have been completed, which meant…
I can advance!
