Before receiving treatnt, to avoid hindering the doctor’s assessnt of the condition, Xiao Jiali had already washed his face. At this mont, a handso young man had confusion written all over his face, saying, “What?”
“My compatibility with you is zero,” the guide doctor repeated disbelievingly.
Xiao Zhenyun, not well-versed in guiding knowledge, didn’t understand what this ant. Looking at Xiao Jiali, he thought to himself, ‘Here we go again, protagonist setting, and the compatibility with others is extrely low, only reaching the minimum passing line with a destined guide.’
“Could it be the Dark Sentinel constitution?” Si Di asked, who had a slightly better understanding of guiding knowledge than Xiao Zhenyun.
The Dark Sentinel had very low compatibility with most guides. The advantage was extrely high resistance to spiritual attacks, but the disadvantage was the difficulty in finding compatible guiding elents and ntal grooming.
Upon hearing this, the doctor looked towards Xiao Zhenyun and Si Di, saying skeptically, “It’s indeed possible… but how could the compatibility between a sentinel and a guide be zero?”
“What does zero represent?” Xiao Jiali asked, “Is it the side effect of my late awakening at the age of twenty? Will it affect the competition?”
“With your half-dead appearance, you’re thinking about the competition?” the doctor retorted, “If it’s zero, I won’t be able to groom your spiritual domain at all, and my guiding elents will have zero effect on you.”
Suddenly, Xiao Zhenyun recalled that when he was at ho, Xiao Jiali seed to have no reaction at all to his guiding elents. His thoughts about him being the so-called ‘child of destiny and the son of the plane’ gradually adjusted. Xiao Zhenyun looked outside the door, and with a glance, he saw a crowd of people with dubious intentions, staring into the dical room.
He noticed a guide standing next to Duan Fei, with very prominent sheep horns of fusion state. The two were communicating about sothing. Sensing Xiao Zhenyun’s gaze, the sheep guide didn’t even bother to pretend, half of his body was hidden in the shadows, with a calculating look in his eyes. His intentions were almost laid out on the table.
Duan Fei also had a composed expression, with a furrowed brow, and his gaze seed to be focused on so unknown point.
“The guide candidate.” Xiao Zhenyun suddenly spoke, “The one with the spiritual body of a sheep.”
The sheep guide: “…”
Caught off guard by dozens of eyes, his cunning expression imdiately turned into that of a startled rabbit. At this point, if he continued to act sinisterly from the shadows, it would be too absurd. He could only toughen up and bathe in the gazes of everyone, pointing at himself in confusion, “?”
Xiao Zhenyun nodded, “Yes, it’s you. Please co over.”
The sheep guide walked awkwardly forward, standing in front of him, “Teacher Xiao…?”
“What is your spiritual power level?”
“… A?”
“Okay, can you please test the compatibility with him?” Xiao Zhenyun pointed at Xiao Jiali.
“…???”
Xiao Jiali, very nervous, looked at him, “I’m counting on you.”
Although the sheep guide showed a hundred percent hesitation, he still faced him with a puzzled expression and tested the compatibility. The result was not optimistic, still zero.
“Weird?” He looked at the data on the device in confusion, “Can compatibility really be zero?”
The people outside the door didn’t know what was happening inside but felt that this ‘beautiful and innocent civilian’ was up to sothing, trying to find an opportunity to escape. The crowd squeezed tighter and tighter, blocking the dical room.
The sheep guide exerted a lot of effort to break out of the encirclent, receiving several suspicious glances along the way. Clearly, he had got a good position. He actually left voluntarily?
His target in coming here was indeed Si Di, the S-class sentinel examiner. Dodging surveillance attacks in the chaos and infiltrating the opponent’s spiritual domain was a challenging task, but Duan Fei had offered a good price.
On the ship, it’s a no-no to throw punches and kicks openly, right? What good is it for him to be so close? He can’t just march up there and duke it out with Si Di, can he?
The smart move is for him to lurk in the shadows, sneakily ssing with Si Di using his spiritual whips…
When the sheep guide returned to his spot, Duan Fei suddenly asked, “The guy inside, with the amber eyes, what’s his na?”
“Huh? You an Xiao Jiali?” the guide turned his face, “Sa surna as Assistant Xiao.”
“…” Duan Fei stayed silent for two seconds, then nodded, “Got it.”
Inside the dical room, Xiao Zhenyun asked, “Is the equipnt malfunctioning?”
Then he and Si Di used the sa gadget to check compatibility, and the result was crystal clear: a whopping 97%. If it were before the 0% match appeared, the guide doctor would have been shocked by this outrageously high number. But the number zero had its charm, and seeing 97 only brought a simple ‘Wow’ to his mind.
Xiao Zhenyun then checked compatibility with Xiao Jiali.
While waiting for the results, Si Di slyly grabbed Xiao Zhenyun’s hand, montarily even suspecting, “Did this guy set up so sche to fool us?”
Like taking so mysterious drug beforehand, getting a 0 match with everyone else, and having a sweet 60 with Xiao Zhenyun?
All for the sake of luring Xiao Zhenyun?
Xiao Jiali’s mysterious background, coupled with that weird mory loss buff, plus the bizarre situation of 0 compatibility, made it feel unreal, making it hard to easily believe.
But soon, the instrunt displayed the result, still an unchanged 0 compatibility.
The dical room fell into a long silence at the sight of this unchanging test result.
“Weird, too weird,” the guide doctor was puzzled.
Seeing that both Xiao Zhenyun’s and Xiao Jiali’s compatibility were 0, Xiao Jiali quickly asked, “Doctor, what should I do in this situation?… If you can’t do a ntal grooming for , can I get a refund of the five gold coins for the diagnosis fee?”
Doctor: “…”
He was a bit overwheld by this sentinel’s peculiar thinking. He turned around and discussed with the more clear-headed adults, “Should we invite the Chairman? The Chairman is a S-level guide and has high compatibility with most sentinels.”
“Isn’t the Chairman only good at spiritual attacks?” the leopard sentinel asked, “Fighting poison with poison?”
Doctor: “…”
The Doctor angrily retorted, “The Chairman is just more skilled in spiritual attacks! His ability in ntal grooming is a bit lacking, so what? Can’t he release guide elents? Have you all forgotten your common sense classes?”
Leopard sentinel: “…”
“Should we bother the Chairman at this ti?” Si Di felt a bit unreliable, but Xiao Zhenyun said, “If this 0 compatibility thing is really so rare that even 97 isn’t a big deal, trust , just tell him, don’t bother inviting him, he’ll rush over on his own.”
This uncle-nephew duo really spared no effort to tease each other… Si Di was about to start the exam terminal when the guide doctor said, “If you want to contact the event organizers, you have to go to the deck; the signal inside the cabin is bad, especially with so many people crowding in here.”
Sighing, Si Di adjusted his sleeves and told Xiao Zhenyun, “You stay here. If anyone bothers you, let
know.”
Approaching the door, he sternly commanded those unaware of the situation, “Make way; I need to go out.”
People glanced at him, then at Xiao Zhenyun, who hadn’t made any move to leave. They automatically created a path, but as soon as Si Di walked out, the ‘wall’ closed back in. Surprisingly, among them there were actually mbers of the robbery team. Duan Fei had already withdrawn his team, leaving only Lily, the sheep guide, and a tiger sentinel who had appeared at so point.
The tiger sentinel was in the middle of a conversation with Duan Fei, while the sheep guide was energetically discussing nearby. When Si Di appeared, both fell silent. Duan Fei, leaning against the wall with arms crossed, raised his eyes coldly. Si Di glanced at him casually, then shifted his gaze and jogged away.
“Gone?”
“Yeah, really gone.”
“What the heck, is this for real or just a trap?”
“Forget whether it’s real or not, let’s get back to the mission.”
As Si Di completely disappeared, chaos erupted among the crowd. The highway robbers, as if released from a seal, crowded into the dical room. The captain, at the forefront, strode up to Xiao Zhenyun, ready to grab his arm. “Civilian, we’re here to save you. Co with us!”
“Hey?” Lily, lively, appeared next to Xiao Zhenyun, blocking the captain’s hand. “Why pull and tug? What if you ruin the examiner’s clothes?”
“Don’t use force!” The captain quickly warned his team. These mbers, explosive in temper, were the kind who would readily block a rest ship to collect protection money.
He noticed Duan Fei had foreseen this and withdrew most of his team, leaving only four people. Although Lily seed simple, she probably wasn’t easy to deal with.
But they couldn’t just let this opportunity slip by, right?
After Si Di left, Xiao Jiali considered himself Xiao Zhenyun’s rightful guardian. He jumped off the diagnostic bed and, with Lily on one side and himself on the other, stood in front of Xiao Zhenyun. “Teacher Xiao doesn’t need your help. The mission description is clear. He’s got Stockholm syndro and is happily staying with the murderer.”
Xiao Zhenyun: “…”
The guide doctor, with a headache, said, “What are you doing? All of you, out. No fighting is allowed on the ship. It won’t help even if you surround us until tomorrow morning!”
The captain, with a grim face, hesitated for a mont. Turning to Duan Fei standing by the wall, he said, “How about a compromise, Captain Duan? Fifty-fifty?”
“Ninety-nine. I get ninety-nine, and you get one.” Duan Fei replied indifferently.
The captain’s face turned even redder. “Damn nonsense!”
Duan Fei’s action plan was interrupted by the opponent, but despite the discord, he remained composed. “Doesn’t matter. We don’t have to fight on the ship. You can continue to stand here and wait for the sentinel examiner to co back. Lily, let’s go.”
With a casual wave, Lily handed over the task of guarding the treasure to Xiao Jiali. “Sorry for injuring your spiritual body, little eagle sentinel. Since your spiritual domain is hard to treat, take good care of it in the future.”
Waving her hand, she took three steps toward Duan Fei. However, she noticed that the captain, who had just said they were leaving, was actually heading in the direction of Xiao Jiali.
“Now you’re called Xiao Jiali?” Duan Fei stopped two ters away from Xiao Jiali. Without waiting for a response, he continued, “Didn’t expect you to awaken as a sentinel. It’s not bad this way…”
