Chapter 49 Crystal Beast Xiaoji
A face identifier array was drawn on the hatch door, and a red light swept across Li Yao's face, making two crisp "drips" sounds, and the hatch door opened with a "click".
There is a very simple small room with only a single bed and a small bathroom, and there is no place to place a desk.
But Li Yao knew that this was a special preferential treatment for them.
On the crystal warship, the single room is a treatment that only officers can enjoy. Ordinary sailors live in four-person rooms, six-person rooms or even eight-person rooms.
Li Yao grew up in the magic weapon grave and could sleep calmly even on the garbage dump. The environment here was luxurious for him. He strode in, threw his carry-on bag into the corner, and smashed himself into the single bed, making a satisfying **.
"Puji Puji, Puji Puji, Li Yao, hello, I am your exclusive Puji Beast No. 2899. You can call me 2899 or Xiaoji."
A chubby, round, and cute puff beast moved out of the bed with difficulty, scaring Li Yao.
The white puff beast flapped its wings with difficulty and flew into the air, saying:
"From now on, until the end of the game, Xiaoji will serve Li Yao. Xiaoji will explain the rules of the competition, answer your questions, help you contact the observers of the "Nine Majors", and take pictures of your every move in the game and transmit it to the monitoring center. If you encounter fatal danger, Xiaoji will also call the cultivator to help you. So, don't look stupid, Xiaoji is a good helper for Li Yao's competition!"
Li Yao stared at the white puff beast for a long time and said in confusion: "Xiaoji, are you talking by yourself, or are someone manipulating you from behind?"
The white puff beast flew around his head and said happily:
"It's not Xiaoji who is talking by himself, and no one manipulates me behind me. Xiaoji's body has the most advanced crystal brain system installed, and hundreds of thousands of divine thoughts were input in advance so that Xiaoji can provide real-time feedback on various situations. Xiaoji was jointly developed by Deep Sea University and Tiandu Medical College. It is not an ordinary spirit beast, but the most advanced "crystal beast", that is, a spirit beast controlled by crystal brain!"
"So that's it, it's really advanced. In this way, it can not only improve the intelligence of the spirit beast, but also don't have to worry that the spirit beast will lose control like a monster!"
Li Yao became more determined to apply for Deep Sea University and continued to ask, "Then Xiaoji, please explain to me the rules of the Extreme Challenge."
"OK."
The white hair on the white puff beast's head swayed, and a fleshy pink tentacle stretched out. At the top of the tentacle was a shiny artificial crystal.
A beam of light shot out from the crystal, forming a huge three-dimensional light curtain in front of Li Yao. With a flash of inspiration, a holographic image of the Demon Dragon Island appeared in front of Li Yao.
"The Extreme Challenge is a traditional event with a long history in the Federation. Its purpose is to select good seedlings with talent for cultivation for the 'Nine Majors', and also to give some students who are good at practical combat but not good at theoretical knowledge, a chance to stand out."
"The annual extreme challenge will be held two months before the college entrance examination. The whole federal government is divided into nearly a thousand exam areas, with 3,000 contestants in each exam area."
"Fuge City and its surrounding areas are both important training centers in the Federation. There have been many cultivation geniuses, so the environment of the No. 571 test area is also very dangerous, and it is one of the famous "death test areas."
"Three thousand contestants will try their best to survive for five days on the Demon Dragon Island where monsters are rampant - Li Yao, don't underestimate the Demon Dragon Island. This is the battlefield where the final decisive battle between the Starry Sky Federation and the East Ji Demon Kingdom in the past. Countless corpses are buried deep in the ocean, and the demonic energy is soaring into the sky!"
"The monsters on the Demon Dragon Island devour demonic energy for many years, and are more cruel than the monsters in other places."
The white puff beast flew to Li Yao, shaking its thick wings, and said happily, "The five-day extreme challenge is divided into two parts: the preliminary and finals. The first three days are the preliminary and the next two days are the finals."
"Tomorrow at 9 o'clock, three thousand candidates will be thrown into the Demon Dragon Island together. You will only wear the simplest sports vests and shorts without any defensive functions, no weapons, no food, no water, and even shoes. Each person has only a puff beast."
"And what you have to do is to survive for three days under the attack of countless monsters."
"Of course, you won't keep fighting with bare hands. There are dozens of 'supply points' distributed on the Demon Dragon Island, and a large number of magic weapons components and supplies are stored. If you have the ability, you can assemble magic weapons by yourself to fight with monsters."
In the light curtain, the Demon Dragon Island continues to enlarge and becomes translucent, with dozens of supply points appearing in specific directions.
The white puff beast continued:
"The most important concept in a competition is 'points', and points are the only indicator to determine your final ranking."
"You can get points by killing monsters. The more powerful monsters you kill, the more points you get."
"In order to test the candidates' all-round ability, there are many ways to get points. For example, if you are a magic weapon expert, you can try to assemble and repair magic weapons. You have the talent for refining medicines, and you can also find various herbs in the jungle. In short, all your behaviors on the Magic Dragon Island, as long as you can show your cultivation talent in a certain aspect, will be converted into points."
"And another important concept is 'trading', which is a rule specially set for contestants who are not good at fighting."
"Points can be traded in the competition. For example, you have the talent to refine magic weapons and assemble ten flying swords at the supply point. You can trade these flying swords to contestants who are good at fighting. As long as both parties verbally agree on the price, the Poji Beast will automatically transfer points, and there is no need to worry that the other party will be silly responsible. In this way, the competition is also very fair for contestants who are not fighting professions."
Li Yao raised his right hand and asked a question:
"After interrupting, I want to ask - for auxiliary players who are not good at fighting, will they be in danger of life when taking risks on the Demon Dragon Island?"
The white puff beast shaking its furry tail:
"Student Li Yao, please don't worry. After the competition begins, more than 20 cultivators will patrol the sky above the Magic Dragon Island, and a special gel capsule is also refined in Xiaoji's body. Once the candidate is in fatal danger or the accumulated injuries reach a fatal level, Xiaoji will automatically spray out the gel, wrap the candidates, and notify the cultivators patrolling in the sky."
"This gel is a very powerful magic weapon that can protect the safety of candidates in all aspects. With the level of monsters on the Demon Dragon Island, it is impossible to destroy them, even if you don't worry!"
"And in the competition, all players will temporarily obtain the status of "Federal Soldier". In case of an accident, they will receive the most proper medical treatment and compensation, and there is absolutely no worries."
Li Yao nodded. The Extreme Challenge has been held for hundreds of sessions and has already had the most complete protection measures, so he has been over-concerned.
