# Chapter 240: Hock—Ptoo!
Jiangnan rolled his eyes!
[Skill Triggered! Spanish: LV0!]
[Adding Skill Points: 100!]
[Skill Upgraded! Spanish (Proficient): LV0!]
Jiangnan grinned and said, "Tenemos que volar a Buda, ¿podemos hacerlo?"
(Spanish: We need to fly to Buda, can you make it happen?)
Bai Qianxun was completely dumbfounded!
What the heck was Jiangnan even rattling on about?
The old man replied, "You can't get into the city proper. You'll have to parachute in. High altitude, low opening. Half a chance you'll survive!"
Hearing the old man respond, Bai Qianxun was stunned!
"What are they talking about?"
Mountain Cat: "Mmm~ Spanish! I'm not too fluent either..."
Bai Qianxun stared blankly at Jiangnan. He knows Spanish too?
No way!
"Is South God really only 18?"
"What do you think..."
Jiangnan made an OK gesture and laughed. "Half is enough! How much?"
The old man snorted, "That stuff the girl's holding? Around here, it's just paper! Too rough to even wipe your ass with!"
Jiangnan opened his Alternate Dimension and pulled out a green metal case!
He flipped open the lid—it was packed full of grenades!
Jiangnan grabbed one, pulled the pin, and tossed it back into the sea!
"Boom!"
A deafening blast sent water spraying several meters high!
"Enough?"
The old man chuckled, revealing a mouthful of yellowed teeth. "Kid's got the right idea!"
Jiangnan grinned and turned back. "Done! Notify the Tuyan squad to have someone pick us up in the city tonight!"
Mountain Cat: "I'll notify them!"
Meanwhile, Bai Qianxun edged over full of curiosity and asked, "What did that old man's words to me earlier mean?"
Jiangnan laughed. "It means you're pretty!"
Bai Qianxun: ???
"That doesn't sound right!"
"Complimenting my beauty? Then why did the old man spit at me earlier?"
Jiangnan: "You don't get it, do you? It's a local custom! A way of showing friendliness!"
"Like our handshake greetings! Or the cheek-kissing over in Eagle Country! Some natives even slap each other's faces as a greeting!"
"The harder the slap, the more热情的 they are!"
"What's a little spitting?"
Bai Qianxun suddenly understood!
Ah! So that's how it is! What a strange custom indeed!
Jiangnan: ¡Hijo de puta!
Bai Qianxun smiled sweetly. "Hehe, thanks!"
Jiangnan: ¡Hijo de puta!
Bai Qianxun's face flushed. She bumped Jiangnan's shoulder shyly. "Oh, you! A couple of compliments is enough!"
"How embarrassing! Ooh hoo hoo~"
Mountain Cat, with her back to them, was shaking her shoulders. "Pfft... mm..."
Though she had little exposure to Spanish, she could understand that line!
Jiangnan was such a troublemaker!
Bai Qianxun asked suspiciously, "Mountain Cat, what are you laughing at?"
"Nothing... nothing! I've already made contact!"
Jiangnan sighed with emotion. These days, you really had to study more!
Otherwise, you'd be grinning like an idiot while being insulted!
Just then, Bai Qianxun walked up to the old man, a bright smile on her face. "Hock—ptoo! Hehe!"
Old man: ???
This girl's probably not right in the head...
---
That night, a dilapidated, rusty, drafty civilian aircraft flew over the Budaya city district!
Looking down!
The Sahara Desert was pitch black!
But the Budaya district right next to the desert was ablaze with firelight!
You could even hear dense gunfire and shell explosions!
This was a major town outside the Sahara Desert!
Multiple forces were stationed here!
A mix of dragons and snakes—fighting was common!
Yet even so, hundreds of thousands of people still lived here!
When war and life blended together, this was the scene!
Every time he saw this, Jiangnan felt proud to be from Huaxia!
The stability back home was unmatched anywhere else, even under the impact of spiritual energy resurgence!
Right now, Bai Qianxun didn't dare look down at all! Her palms were dripping with cold sweat!
She said pitifully, "Can't we not parachute?"
Jiangnan beamed. "Mm! No parachuting! See? None of us brought a parachute pack!"
Bai Qianxun sighed in relief. "Phew! Good!"
Wait! Something's not right!
If we don't have parachute packs, how are we getting down?
Old man: "Can't go any further! Good luck!"
Jiangnan: "You got it!"
In one move, Jiangnan grabbed Mountain Cat and Bai Qianxun around the waist!
Bai Qianxun suddenly realized what was about to happen! No way...
"South God! Don't!!!"
The next instant, the three figures inside the plane vanished!
The old man's eyes went wide. "Holy crap! These youngsters? Holy crap!"
Jumping out without a parachute?
Midair, the wind howled!
Bai Qianxun squeezed her eyes shut and screamed, "AHHH!!!"
"Jiangnan! I'll hate you forever! AHHH!!!"
[From Bai Qianxun: Resentment +1000!]
[From Bai Qianxun: Resentment +1000!]
[From...]
Jiangnan lay back in the air, casually holding Mountain Cat's hand as they descended leisurely, snickering to himself!
Just then, the resentment points suddenly stopped updating!
Bai Qianxun wasn't screaming anymore?
Jiangnan blinked. He saw her in freefall—had she fainted?
System crash?
In a flash, Jiangnan teleported right in front of Bai Qianxun!
He pinched her little cheek!
"Hey! Don't sleep! Wake up! Time to get up!"
Bai Qianxun opened her eyes. "Mmm..."
Then she looked around at the environment!
"AHHH!!!"
[From Bai Qianxun: Resentment +1000!]
[From Bai Qianxun: Resentment +1000!]
And then she fainted again...
Jiangnan: ???
That won't do!
"Xiao Bai! You need to be brave! Face reality bravely, you know?"
Then he kept shaking Bai Qianxun awake!
Bai Qianxun opened her eyes again. "Pfft—why are we still falling!"
"AHHH!!!"
[From Bai Qianxun: Resentment +1000?]
[From...]
And then she crashed again!
Jiangnan persistently shook her shoulders!
"Xiao Bai! As a member of the Dragon Abyss Army, you have to overcome your fear of heights, you know?"
"Wake up! I'm doing this for your own good!"
Mm!
He was waking her up to help Xiao Bai overcome her acrophobia!
It was his duty to help a comrade!
Absolutely not to refresh her resentment points!
Absolutely not!
After waking Bai Qianxun for the sixth time, she was in tears!
I've already slept six times! Why haven't we hit the ground yet!
Just as they were about to slam into the ground, Jiangnan grabbed Bai Qianxun's waist, teleported, then grabbed Mountain Cat!
A series of teleports brought them safely down into a dark alley in the Budaya district!
Bai Qianxun stumbled and collapsed onto Jiangnan, her face full of emotion!
The feeling of solid ground was just too wonderful!
Jiangnan said, "Let's go. The pickup point should be nearby."
Bai Qianxun took a step, then blushed. "Wait a moment, Mountain Cat. Come here for a second!"
Mountain Cat: "What's wrong? Legs numb? I'll carry you!"
"Ah, no! Just come here!"
Bai Qianxun whispered in Mountain Cat's ear. "Mumble mumble mumble..."
Mountain Cat was stunned. "No way?"
Bai Qianxun's face turned even redder!
"Um... all my stuff is in Xiao Nan's Alternate Dimension..."
Bai Qianxun bit her lip and whispered, "South God... can you grab me a pair of Mountain Cat's pants?"
Jiangnan: ???
His gaze involuntarily dropped to Bai Qianxun's pants!
She needs to change pants?
Why change pants?
Could it be that when she jumped from the plane earlier...
Bai Qianxun's face was red to the roots of her ears. She grabbed her shirt and pulled it down hard!
She quickly explained, "No... it's not what you think!"
"I just think these pants are too tight! Not convenient for moving!"
Jiangnan suddenly understood. "Mm! I get it! I get it!"
Gotta remember to keep learning!
