Chapter 600 Night Talk It was late at night. On this day, Gerald fought from Night Watchâs headquarters to Washington, and then went back from Washington to Europe.
He was indeed exhausted, but he still cultivated instead of taking a rest.
The Dragon Bone was melting bit by bit, merging into Geraldâs body. It is a very slow process, completely different from before when he directly absorbed it.
Time passed by.
What Gerald didnât notice was that Valeryâs aura was wavering next door.
In fact, it wasnât just Valery. At this moment, it also happened in Kristenâs and Theoâs room.
During this period of time, they were involved in continuous battles. Under the terrifying pressure, they all felt a slight opportunity to reach the super level. They were talented, especially Valery. She was young, with high attainments in medical skills, and also had a top level of strength. Her talent was evident.
But between top experts and super experts, there was a huge difference.
They were not fighting in the most dangerous places, so they did not have that kind of lifeâandâdeath battles.
There was still something missing.
On this day, many Watchmen died in battle, and a lot of people reached the super level. Yet, it all happened in lifeâandâdeath battles.
However, among the people in Team 11762, Gerald and a few super experts fought the most dangerous battles. Gerald even pondered that the reason why Carolyn absorbed the Dragon Bone quickly was related to the recent battles with the Red Elite Ghost.
As Valery and the others were in a relatively safe place, they naturally suffered much less pressure.
They had the opportunity to break through, but it was not so easy for them to cross this barrier.
As time went by, it was three or four oâclock in the morning.
Gerald opened his eyes. He frowned and looked at the Dragon Bone in his hand.
He had absorbed a small part of the bone. But after absorbing it, the process became much slower. He stood up with a frown.
Gerald felt a little irritated.
Previously, it was absorbed very fast. Gerald guessed that it had something to do with his recent battle with the Gold Elite Ghost.
However, it was still a little slow. If he absorbed 27 pieces of Dragon Bones, he felt that he would have a chance to replace Blaine to slash out that blade.
âI have to think of a way to absorb it as soon as possible,â Gerald frowned.
Then he looked out of the window and walked out. He sat down on the reclining chair on the balcony.
The sea breeze blew slowly, making Gerald feel much more refreshed.
Creak!
Valery opened the door. Gerald looked over and found that Valery was wearing loose pajamas and walking out of the room.
Because she had been traveling around with Gerald and the others all this time, she had not trimmed her hair for a while. Before, she had tied a ponytail, but now her hair hung down loosely to her shoulder.
There was no makeup on Valeryâs pretty face. She was still so devastatingly beautiful. She was wearing a pair of slippers, revealing her fair calves. Step by step, she walked to the reclining chair next to Gerald. Then she also lay down and asked, âWhatâs wrong? Canât fall asleep?â
âYes! I miss you!â Gerald said with a smile.
Valeryâs expression turned cold. Then, she looked at the starry sky and muttered, âI always need one more breath to reach the super level. If I reach the super level, Iâll be lucky enough to absorb more than ten Dragon Bones at once like Carolyn. Then Iâll be able to face the Red Elite Ghosts headâon.â
âDonât overthink it,â Gerald smiled.
âGerald, you have a problem that I havenât mentioned to you!â Valery said. âIn face of something, when it comes to your friends and relatives, you always want to shoulder everything by yourself.
But sooner or later, you wonât be able to handle it. We also want to support you.â
Geraldâlooked at the sky and muttered, âWithout these Elite Ghosts, everyone would be able to live a much easier life.â
âI want to reach the super level. I want to stand by your side and face all of this together with you, just like Carolyn!â Valery also muttered. âI donât want Blaine to die. I want Blaine to live well.
Unfortunately, there is not much time left for us.â
Her voice trembled a little.
Get Bonus âIf I absorb these 27 pieces of Dragon Bones, perhaps I will have a chance to replace Blaine to slash out the blade.
Unfortunately, I canât absorb them,â Gerald said.
Valery slowly let out a breath. She looked at the starry sky and suddenly asked, âGerald, you have confessed to me so many times. Do you really mean it?â
Gerald was stunned for a moment, then quickly said, âI mean it every time!â
âIs that so?â The sea breeze blew past, blowing up Valeryâs hair. She turned to look at Gerald and said, âThen after this is over, I will give you an answer.â
âHuh?â Gerald looked happy. âReally?â
âReally. So, donât risk your life. If you find that you canât win, just order a retreat. Give yourself some time. If you have enough time, it will be enough to improve,â Valery looked at Gerald and said seriously.
Gerald turned around and looked at her. Their eyes met, and time seemed to have stopped.
Then, Gerald nodded slightly and said, âAlright! I know what Iâm doing this time.â
If he fought to the death, he might be able to kill one more Gold Elite Ghost, but so what? As long as there was a Gold Elite Ghost and as long as Blaine died, it would be a heavy blow to humanity.
âYes, itâs not like we donât have a chance anymore. Now that the number of super experts has increased, and some hidden experts have come out, we still have a chance.â Valery smiled and said, âI also want to reach the super level as soon as possible.â
As she spoke, Valery stood up and found a stool to Geraldâs side. Then, she held Geraldâs arm and smiled, âDo you remember the first time we met?â
âI remember!â Gerald seemed to be lost in his memories. âIt was in Atlanta. At that time, I used Death Storm and almost died. Then, you came to save me.â
âAt that time, Ashtyn was also there!â Valery said with a faint smile.
Gerald cleared his throat.
âYou should go to bed.â Valery didnât continue the topic. She did not say anything more. Instead, she moved her body and reached out to Geraldâs head. She gently massaged his head and said, âYou are exhausted today. You have to rest well. Only then will you be able to cultivate and improve in a better way.â
Meanwhile, it was in an underground casino in Washington.
Get Bonus At this time, two people were sitting opposite each other in the underground casino. They seemed to be playing cards.
One was Dr. T. If Gerald was here, he would immediately recognize that the other person was Ari from Sin City.
Gloria was also sitting next to Ari, mumbling as if she was talking to herself.
