Chapter 1762 A Soft-Hearted God!

As he spoke, Ma Han's right hand was already resting on Xu Xiao's shoulder.

The moment he was touched, his facial features scrunched up in pain.

Although Ma Han had already prepared himself mentally and tried his best to endure,

But she still couldn't be as 'calm' as Xu Xiao.

The only thing that made him slightly better than Nikita and Lin Cheng was that he didn't let out a cry of pain.

Everyone was silent.

Xu Xiao spoke up again, frantically scolding Ma Han:

"Let go of Ma Han! This is not the kind of pain you should be enduring!"

“Originally… it shouldn’t have been you who had to bear this…” Fine beads of sweat began to appear on Ma Han’s forehead, and his voice was distorted by pain as he responded.

However, he still didn't release his right hand from the woman's shoulder. Instead, he said in a joking tone, trying to sound relaxed:

"Don't be so stingy, class monitor... good things should be shared with friends..."

"This is different, it will hurt you to death!" Xu Xiao really started to panic.

Perhaps it was because Ma Han shared some of her pain that she regained some strength.

As they spoke, the woman began to struggle, trying to slap Ma Han's hand off her shoulder.

But before she could touch Ma Han, her wrist was grasped by another soft hand.

"Suka...it really hurts!" Nikita groaned, a strained smile tugging at her pretty face.

"Holy Mother, you helped me before, and now I want to help you!"

"That's how our Russian people are. If you don't let me help you, then you're looking down on us!"

"Me too." Lin Cheng immediately stepped forward and touched Xu Xiao.

As he frowned, he carefully confirmed with Ma Han:

"Does the more people share the burden, the less pain Xu Xiao will suffer?"

“That’s how it is in theory.” Ma Han’s breathing became rapid due to the intense pain.

"But the majority of the burden should still be borne by the class monitor... after all, her spiritual strength is stronger than all of ours..."

As they were talking, Ma Han suddenly felt someone leaning closer from behind.

A hairy hand appeared in his field of vision, paused for a moment about three feet away from Xu Xiao's back, but ultimately did not touch it.

As a second choice, she placed her hand on Ma Han's arm.

Painful groans followed one after another.

Those were the Palu people who had been following them.

They originally thought that when the Chosen One Xu Xiao used his authority and power, he was just like other Chosen Ones, normally consuming the power of the believers' wishes.

They respected, followed, and believed in them.

It simply placed Xu Xiao in the same position as in the past, equivalent to a slave owner, mercenary leader, or major colonist.

They believed the woman was a kind-hearted leader and the hope for saving their Palu tribe from the misery of slavery.

but now,

The moment they felt the pain impacting their souls, the people of Palu's mindset was completely transformed.

Just ask,

Which high-ranking leader would stoop down like Xu Xiao and pay attention to these ants crawling on the ground?

Even more so, to empathize with their suffering?!

This greatness has long surpassed the limits of ordinary people!

Xu Xiao is a god.

Even though she hasn't been promoted yet,

But in the eyes of the Palu people, she had already ascended to godhood!

The Palu Star Belt, enslaved for over a hundred years, welcomes a compassionate god!

"Although we are weak, please allow us to share some of your burden..."

"So, Lord Xu Xiao, you've been suffering so much all this time in order to save us..."

"Let us help you with some of the burden, even if it's just a tiny little bit..."

In devout whispers, all the Palu people indirectly came into contact with Xu Xiao.

The pain fed back by the power of 'forgiveness' was diverted bit by bit, but it only made the woman feel more and more uncomfortable.

The accumulation of pain brings back past memories.

At this moment, she clearly knew that without a sufficiently high position to support her, forcibly sharing her pain would have dire consequences.

"Don't touch me again, you'll really die!"

No one let go.

Even the fox-man Smir, who had been observing from the sidelines, showed a surprised expression, marveling at the resilience of these Paru slaves whom he regarded as livestock.

This made him feel inexplicably uneasy.

Those guys are clearly just weak ants, yet they can be treated with such indifference.

It's absolutely terrifying!

Seeing that no one was letting go, Xu Xiao knew that this couldn't go on.

We can only slow down the resurrection of the Palu people for now, and allow ourselves to recover a little.

Then, using his mental power, he forcefully pushed everyone away!

The weakest Paru were the first to be hit, pushed far away by the gentle spiritual force, and fell flat on their faces.

Although the guards who disembarked from the black-sailed ship were strong, they were no match for the Chosen One's methods and were pushed away one by one, forcibly creating distance between them.

The only ones still standing beside Xu Xiao are Ma Han and Nikita.

The former knew Xu Xiao and guessed that she would forcefully push everyone away, so he made preparations in advance and pinned himself to the spot with a long sword.

The latter is due to the passive skill of "Desperate Winner," which allows you to "sit at the gambling table."

[Job Skill Name: Sitting at the Gambling Table]

[Type: Passive]

[Consumption: None]

[Skill Description: Players possessing this skill can disregard differences in level, four-dimensional attributes, soul strength, ability advantages/disadvantages, and their own rank.]

[Note: There are empty seats on the table; we are one player short for a mahjong game!]

This passive skill doesn't usually have a very strong presence.

After all, it's merely ignoring the gap, rather than forcibly closing it.

While the skill is active, it has no effect on Nikita's own strength.

Just as the skill name suggests, it simply puts the skill holder 'at the gambling table'.

The mandatory circuit breaker mechanism completely disregards whether the person sitting at the gambling table has the 'capital' or the ability to win the 'bet'.

In other words, Xu Xiao's mental energy was not intended to cause harm.

Otherwise, even if Nikita could still stand in the same spot, he would be severely weakened.

Even she, the skill holder, didn't expect that the passive skill would play a crucial role at this time.

Is it possible?

Is this the place that Elisa mentioned earlier, where 'Xu Xiao would need her'?

"You two, let me go!"

Seeing that Ma Han and Nikita were still beside him, Xu Xiao became increasingly flustered.

Since gentle mental attacks couldn't drive the two away, the only option left was to use force.

"If you don't let go of me, I'll hit you!"

She issued what she thought was the toughest stance to the two of them, delivering an ultimatum.

Knikita and Mahan wouldn't listen!

After discovering that this method could alleviate Xu Xiao's pain, the two of them couldn't wait to stick close to the woman and wouldn't back down even a step.

Helpless, Xu Xiao could only activate the white thorns to bind the two of them and forcibly pull them apart.

Taking advantage of the moment when no one was touching her, she quickly mobilized her authority and power, intending to end the battle swiftly.

With Xu Xiao's current strength, she could probably barely revive all the Palu people before anyone else touched her body.

But the price she had to pay far exceeded her expectations.
