Five hundred and sixtieth eight chapters sleepless night
The first week of the exam passed by Xiang peacefully, but Xiao Lin's camp did not increase the number of people, and there were still the seven people. Everyone no longer had the tension and anxiety that they had just entered the jungle. This place was safer than expected. Although they would occasionally encounter wild beasts attacks, their strength was mostly just as black iron level. Moreover, the intelligence level of these low-level beasts cannot be compared with humans after all. With everyone helping each other and setting up various traps, it is very easy to deal with.
Hunting is also the main source of food in the past two days, but the chef is replaced by another person. It is said that this is his profession on earth. Well, Xiao Lin also admitted that his cooking skills are at most, which is at the very least. Song Junlang probably doesn't care. During their search two days ago, they found a salt-leaf tree. The leaves of this tree in the Norma World are rich in salt ingredients, so even the problem of seasoning was solved.
These days everyone has become particularly enthusiastic about hunting because everyone seems to have discovered the purpose of this exam, at least in their opinion.
The task description mentioned that all items obtained in the exam will be distributed in kind by the school after the exam, and of course you can also choose to convert them into redemption points. This regulation is undoubtedly very tempting. People like Xiao Lin who spend too many redemption points may not care, but others care very much. Their redemption points are not enough to be squandered at will.
When we first came to the jungle, everyone was confused because this ghost place seemed to have nothing worthy at all, so we wouldn't cut all the big trees back.
But after Xiao Lin and his team finished their first meal of wolf meat, they immediately understood that in the heart of the wind wolf, there was a light white tuber about the size of a nail piece. In the Norma world, it is called beast cores, which is their source of power. For humans, these beast cores have various uses, whether they are energy raw materials or additives to certain special props, they are all good things.
There are also many types of beast cores, and their value varies according to their composition and purity. Wind wolf's beast core is wind-attributed. You can see that the quality is very low just from the size of the nail sheet. Fortunately, because the purity of the wind element is very high, it is not like some beast cores because they are mixed with too many impurities. Even if the quality is high, the utilization is very low.
Xiao Lin, who didn't care much about this reward, quickly shared this discovery with the few people who joined one after another, and received a lot of gratitude from them.
So in the past two days, everyone enthusiastically asked to join the search team, and Xiao Lin did not compete with them and took the initiative to stay in the camp.
The weapons did not stump them. The mages could only focus on bare hands and empty fists. Fortunately, the staff would affect the lethality and hit at most. If the perception was too low, they could only admit that they were unlucky.
The little troublesome thing is Lu Renyi. He uses bows and arrows, and the impact of being unable to carry weapons is the greatest. In fact, it is not difficult to make simple bows and arrows. The difficult one is arrows, and it cannot guarantee the accuracy and lethality of the arrows. Instead of making do, it is better to just latte the iron rods and point them directly.
Xiao Lin reflected on this and said, "Maybe the school is making us understand the importance of side jobs. It seems that we will probably offer relevant courses in the future." Of course, it is just random speculation at the moment, but it is obvious that if there is someone who can make equipment here, it will not be so embarrassing.
...
"It feels more and more that we are here for a picnic." In the evening a week later, after everyone returned to the camp after a day of work, Lu Renyi said boredly.
Others think about it. After solving the basic problems of food, drinking and housing, this environment is not so good, but compared to previous exams, it is indeed a bit leisurely like a picnic.
Xiao Lin shook his head helplessly. He also felt a little strange. He turned around and looked at the people who were searching for them. Seeing that they were empty-handed, he asked, "Did you have any gains today?"
"It's a bit strange today. We have expanded the scope, but we still can't find any beasts." The person who spoke was a very strong man. His weapon was a tight iron rod with cloth strips found in the camp. People with higher power values are the easiest here.
"It doesn't matter. We found some wild fruits to fill our hunger." Another short-haired woman said casually, probably because she felt that eating bloody meat for several days in a row was a bit greasy.
"Not poisonous?"
"Hmph, people who fail to pass the basic biology are still embarrassed to say this in front of me!"
"Tsk, you'll laugh a hundred steps, I remember you're just a little better than me!"
...
Everyone is familiar with each other during the semester. They basically spent the evening chatting, which was boring, but it was also considered a waste of time.
Xiao Lin listened silently beside him. Suddenly he frowned, looked up at the sky covered by lush leaves, which was even more gloomy than before, and he said, "The wind is blowing."
"It seems that it's a bit windy." The squad leader's words immediately became the topic of everyone.
"It's going to rain."
"That's so terrible. I see there are still several holes in the tent. What should I do tonight?"
"It's important to have one night, and it won't last for how long this rain will last."
Looking at the hazy sky through the gaps of the leaves, everyone's good mood was dispelled and they began to prepare for the possible upcoming rainstorm.
After eating the picked fruits, it became darker and the wind began to rise. The camp was deserted for a long time and was not very reliable. It was whistling, making people worried that it might be blown away at any time. Therefore, everyone had to get up to reinforce it, extinguished the bonfire, and then there was only darkness that was left without a finger.
This night was destined to be sleepless, but the expected heavy rain was slow to see any movement, but the wind was getting heavier and heavier. The tent that had been reinforced for several times seemed to be unable to hold on. Two hours later, with a low sound of rupture, the entire tent had been blown away.
"It's so unlucky! This wind should be at level 12!"
"You won't stand here at level 12!"
"Everyone hurry up and gather at the tree, don't be blown away."
...
Although they are all a little embarrassed, everyone can only complain a few times. After all, they are all people who have experienced several monthly exams, so no one takes this level of natural phenomenon to heart.
They surrounded a towering tree nearby, and with the thick trunks slightly blocked the downwind. In the second half of the night, the wind finally became a little smaller and everyone began to get sleepy.
Xiao Lin was in good spirits. Just as he was about to take the initiative to propose to watch and let others lie down here to sleep first, a low and distant low sound suddenly came from the jungle.
