Chen Chu walked over and said hello to everyone, then looked at Luo Fei and asked curiously: "Why haven't you come to school these days?"
The girl blinked her eyes and said softly: "I was arrested by my sister-in-law for special training. She said I was useless. I brought so many good things and I was beaten."
Regarding this, Chen Chu could only express concern: "...Is it hard?"
"Fortunately, I mainly learned how to use some special equipment, and helped me improve the weapon sniper rifle by the way."
"By the way, Chen Chu, the cleanup tasks and precautions have been announced. They are on the big screen at the back. Take a look."
"good."
Chen Chu looked at the notice wall behind. The large screen was filled with various regulations and introductions.
This cleaning mission will start on the fifth day of the Lunar New Year and will target all deep mountains and old forests across the country.
Among them, Wujiang is responsible for the middle section of the two intersecting mountain ranges, using three small towns close to the two mountain ranges as mission release points.
At the same time, for convenience, students participating in the clean-up mission can apply to rent a vehicle and drive there to load and haul the corpses of mutant beasts when they go out on missions.
However, to apply for a vehicle, you need to obtain a driver's license at school and make sure you can drive safely and proficiently.
After all, this is not a chaotic Koroa where you can just run around with a car.
In addition, there are various restrictions, such as not injuring ordinary people when hunting down mutant beasts, and not destroying public and private property at will.
There are also restrictions on accepting missions at the same time. Freshmen in the first heaven can only accept level one mutant beast missions, while those in the second level can accept level two and below tasks, and so on.
If the target mutant beast is a group type, you can choose to form a team.
The reward for completing the mission is based on the number and level of the mutant beasts killed. Each mutant beast at the first level contributes 2 points, a mutant beast at the second level contributes 6 points, and a mutant beast at the third level contributes 18 points.
This contribution point reward is one-tenth lower than when Chen Chu and others killed the strange beasts in Koraya.
The reason given by the school is that each mission release requires accurate intelligence, and one-tenth of the deducted contribution is used to pay for professional investigation fees and consumption.
At the same time, students who hunt mutant beasts can also choose to convert them into money. The price is 80% of the market price, which makes them much more than the contribution points.
Of course, under normal circumstances no student will exchange it for money. After all, contribution points are more valuable.
At this time, Xia Youhui and others came over and said with smiles: "Achu, there's no need to read. For us, these novice tasks are not difficult at all."
Liu Feng wrote in a nonchalant tone: "Xia Youhui is right. For geniuses like us, this kind of task is just to kill time."
Bai Mu crossed his arms and nodded: "Yes, these low-level mutant beasts can strike with one sword at a time. There is no pressure at all."
The expressions of the three of them were relaxed and carefree, and their tone of voice was disdainful. They did not pay attention to those mutated beasts at all.
This performance was in sharp contrast to the dignified and worried students around them. Some students who heard their conversation looked at them frequently, with envy and speechlessness in their eyes.
Nonsense, if they were in the third heaven, would they still be worried?
Chen Chu was speechless: "...Stop pretending here, we are all only high-level practitioners of the third heaven, not the fourth heaven."
"And don't be careless. You must know that level does not represent combat power. Some low-level mutant beasts have special abilities and may be more threatening than some third-level alien beasts."
When Chen Chu was talking, Li Meng took a few steps back and put some distance between himself and Xia Youhui, as if to say don't count him in.
Ahem!!
Xia Youhui coughed twice and said quickly: "We all know this, we are just joking casually." After saying this, the three of them had obscene and proud expressions on their faces.
Chen Chu and Luo Fei looked at each other and shook their heads, too lazy to pay attention to these idiots.
At this time, Lin Xue suddenly said: "Chen Chu, I, Yi Rui, Xia Youhui and Li Meng have decided to form a team and apply to go to the Alien Beast Battlefield in the third year of the year."
"...On the third day of the Lunar New Year, you guys won't participate in the cleanup task?" Chen Chu was stunned and glanced at Liu Feng and others who just laughed and said that ordinary mutant beasts were too weak.
"Don't look at me like that." Liu Feng shrugged: "You are about to break through to the late third level without making a sound, you are a pervert with strong combat power."
"If we don't work harder, we may not even be able to see your back in two years."
Xia Youhui also looked melancholy: "Yeah, originally I didn't really want to go, but I can't help it. Ah Chu, you are so evil. I feel so much pressure to be a brother with you."
We are all geniuses and have a sense of pride in our hearts.
Suddenly, two months later, Chen Chu was already ahead of them. His combat power was exaggerated. In this situation, no one would admit defeat and wanted to work harder to break through and move forward.
However, they were not very impulsive and chose to apply after half a month, preparing to consolidate their cultivation during this period.
…Do you blame me for improving your strength too quickly? Chen Chu didn’t know what to say for a while.
Lin Xue looked at Chen Chu and said calmly: "Chen Chu, you don't have to think too much. We decided to apply to go to the Alien Beast Battlefield not because of you."
"Just yesterday, An Zhiqing, Li Hao and several other students had applied in advance to go to the Alien Beast Battlefield. They haven't prepared for it for years."
"This is the attitude that practitioners of our generation should have. We should be brave and enterprising, walk on thin ice, and never stop. Only in this way can we overcome all obstacles and reach the peak of true martial arts."
Are these teenagers so determined and mature?
Looking at the expressions of Lin Xue and others, Chen Chu smiled bitterly: "...I may not be able to go with you, there are some things I am not ready for yet."
What he meant was that the mutant beast that would be the clone's fourth evolution had not yet been determined, but Xia Youhui and the others thought it was a matter of advanced techniques.
Knowing that Chen Chu was going to kill a lot in the cleaning mission and make enough contributions to exchange for the dragon-elephant hegemony, he was right to think so.
Therefore, Lin Xue and others just nodded with regret and did not persuade him to come along.
After finishing the conversation, everyone dispersed.
Most people went to take the driver's license test. The school was very efficient. They scanned the traffic rules and then drove around the field skillfully to pass.
In the afternoon, Chen Chu went to the browsing room on the 33rd floor, flipped through it, and took out the second volume of the Encyclopedia of Low-Level Mutated Beasts.
When Chen Chu came and sat down opposite her, the girl raised her head slightly, noticed that Chen Chu was hesitant to speak, then pursed her lips and chuckled: "Are you a little confused?"
Chen Chu nodded: "One thing is that you didn't go with them this time."
On the third day of the new year, Lin Xue and others formed a team to leave, but Luo Fei was not among them.
Just when Chen Chu thought Luo Fei would give a reason, the girl suddenly said: "Because I am afraid that you will be alone, so I plan to stay with you."
...Chen Chu was stunned for a moment.
puff!
The girl laughed and said playfully: "I'm just kidding, it's mainly because my sister-in-law has a training plan for me next, and there are still some things I'm not ready for."
"But I will also participate in the cleaning mission. Can we form a team together then?"
Chen Chu, who was teased a little, said angrily: "We can form a team, but I'm afraid you won't be able to keep up with me."
"It's okay. When the time comes, you will be the main force and I will play support. Just give me one-fifth of the contribution you make." The girl didn't care very much.
"You said that yourself."
"Yes, I said it myself."
The two chatted for a while while joking, and then the girl lowered her head again, immersed in the peaceful mood of reading the scriptures.
Seeing this, Chen Chu couldn't help but smile, and lowered his head to open the re-bound book. At present, he had taken a fancy to the abilities of two second-level mutant beasts.
But it still doesn't feel powerful enough.
At the same time, Chen Chu, who seemed to be reading a book, lost most of his attention and came to the Sword Armor Yan Beast.
Under the dark and silent deep sea cracks, golden magma rolled. The twelve-meter-long sword-armored beast slowly closed its mouth like a black dragon.
There was a hint of disappointment in its cold, pale golden vertical pupils.
Two days have passed, and after swallowing a large amount of hot material, it has changed a lot.
However, the temperature inside the body increased from 100 degrees Celsius to 150 degrees Celsius, and there were faint flames jumping between the feathers on both sides, making it look even more gorgeous and majestic.
As for its expected conversion of the thermal energy of swallowed lava into bioenergy, it is indeed possible, but the efficiency is too slow.
In the past two days, the size of the Sword Armor Yan Beast has only grown by one centimeter, and its evolution value has increased by 2 points cumulatively. Compared with the growth of prey mutant creatures, one is in the sky and the other is on the ground.
However, this ability is not useless. Maybe you can become stronger by sleeping in magma when your talent becomes stronger in the future.
Thoughtfully, the sword-armored Yan beast turned its body, swayed its tail, picked up the rolling water and swam towards the crack, spanning more than two hundred meters in the blink of an eye.
Just as it rushed out of the crack in the seabed, the figure of the sword-armored beast suddenly stopped, its four claws fell to the ground, and it looked forward with cold eyes.
There, a red mutant fish with a body length of about 21 meters, an oval shape, and a body covered with more than ten meters of blue velvet swam out of the darkness.
The blue silk threads on the body of this mutated fish exude an astonishing chill, and the sea water where it passes freezes into thin white ice, like snowflakes in the water.
Because it is close to the cracks on the seafloor, the water temperature is around tens of degrees, so these thin ices appear and disappear constantly, which is very beautiful.
At the same time, this mutated fish does not have densely packed sharp teeth in its mouth. Instead, it has four fangs over two meters long, which seem to be able to bite through anything.
It was obvious that this mutated fish had been waiting for the sword-armored beast to come up, and was very patient.
Looking at the cold velvet on the mutated fish, the sword-armored beast's eyes became colder and colder. In the past, it would have been a little wary of this cold energy, but now...
Phew! A burst of hot energy and blood erupted from the Sword Armor Yan Beast, shaking the sea water. Red light emitted from the gaps in the scales all over its body, and the muscles in its limbs swelled suddenly.
Boom! The hard rock beneath the sword-armored beast exploded, and cracks spread out more than ten meters away.
Under the force of the repulsion, the Sword Armor Yan Beast burst out like a black beam of light. Because the speed was so fast, a white shock wave even appeared outside it, making a harsh roar.
At a terrifying speed, the Sword Armor Yan Beast appeared in front of the mutated beast in an instant, with its claws sticking out, ignoring the floating blue velvet and snapping a photo.
boom!
The seawater exploded under the terrifying claws, and the five-meter-thick ice layer condensed outside the body of the blue velvet mutant fish exploded instantly. The huge body was blasted hundreds of meters away by the terrifying force, kicking up rolling mud and sand.
With one blow, even if the mutated fish was blocked by ice, the flesh and blood of the smaller half of its body still exploded and collapsed, and ice-blue blood mixed with flesh and blood residue spread out.
However, as a mutated creature, it has very strong vitality.
I saw the blue velvet light that filled the whole body of the blue velvet mutant fish brighten, and in an instant, a terrible chill turned into a blue halo and exploded.
Click click click!!
In just the blink of an eye, an area of more than 20 meters was covered by blue ice, including the sword-armored Yan beast and the mutated fish itself that rushed over again in an instant.
This indiscriminate freezing ability is so strong that the prey cannot escape at all. Each time it freezes the prey to death and enjoys it slowly.
But today... inside the blue ice, the sword-armored beast's whole body was flashing with red light, and its body surface was emitting blazing heat to block the incoming cold energy from the outside.
At the same time, the muscles throughout the body swelled and a terrifying force exploded.
Roar!
As the sword-armored beast roared, the surrounding ice cracked as it struggled, and then exploded with a bang and the down on the mutated fish's body.
In the broken ice shards, the sword-armored beast stood like a human body, with its claws raised high, and in an instant, a terrifying power that shook the world gathered within it.
Under the almost substantial breath of power, the surrounding seawater solidified.
Boom! The bottom of the sea shook with one blow, and the overbearing power instantly exploded half of the mutated fish's body.
The terrifying force continued unabated and pounded the seabed. The ground collapsed within ten meters, cracks spread, and the shock wave set off water waves that rushed a hundred meters away before stopping.
At this moment, in the turbid and dark sea water, the black and red beast standing upright exuded a terrifying aura, looking extremely ferocious.
