Chapter 226 Extremely dangerous, ghosts in the night (3 updates! 4k more updates, please double the monthly ticket)(1/2)
Lu Chenzhou has been practicing this "White Tiger Breaking Army Spear" for less than two months. Once he finishes the virtual realm trial, he hopes to perfect his marksmanship.
At that time, the magic weapon's marksmanship was probably comparable to the power of his real boxing skills. And the [Wind and Thunder Force], which cost him his life, was his most powerful killing move to make a comeback!
Next.
Lu Chenzhou wandered around the oasis all day long, not obsessed with finding Daxu. Instead, he just let nature take its course. Anyway, his main purpose was to come here to hone his martial arts.
certainly.
The oasis area is not absolutely safe.
Three days later, a certain valley in District 9.
Lu Chenzhou crouched in a pile of rotten leaves. The bodhi seeds condensed in his heart shone with brilliance, covering up Lu Chenzhou's Qi, looming. In the Daling Cave, the coldness was like a deep sea, submerging Lu Chenzhou, and the will of martial arts protected his soul.
"Quack!"
In the sky.
A virtual object shaped like a vulture, with a wingspan of ten meters, and the head of a thin and strange red-haired old man hovered by. The old man's face was covered with reddish-brown corpse spots connected together, and maggots were swaying and twisting in the shriveled wrinkles. The mouth is full of fine and sharp teeth.
Its sharp humanoid claws grasped the corpse of a great void in the end, and it was flying while feasting, and finally slowly disappeared into the horizon.
"Old Man Vulture, Shadow Level Daxu...
If you master the "Tiger Demon Tai Sui Kung" as soon as possible, you will be able to stay away from such situations and won't be so dangerous. I hope Wang Hongdao and the others will be okay."
After the monster had gone away, Lu Chenzhou emerged from the pile of dead leaves and ran away in the direction of the stronghold. He was extremely grateful in his heart. Fortunately, he had learned the "Bodhi Technique" before coming and could barely cover up part of his energy. Machine. In addition, the old man's eagle had just successfully hunted, and it didn't feel anything when passing by.
Otherwise, today will be very unlucky.
Back at the stronghold, Lu Chenzhou reported the situation of the old man's eagle, and the military immediately sent strong men to the area to eliminate the eagle. Lu Chenzhou received 50 combat merits.
"I've earned 700 battle achievements... there are still 7 days left, I can earn another 300 without any problem."
Lu Chenzhou looked at the ranking list. He rose to 36th place without knowing it.
It's good to make steady progress.
[Galaxy Li Guyi: 1,600 military exploits]
"This Li Guyi, doesn't he practice every day?"
Lu Chenzhou couldn't imagine how this man earned 1,600 battle merits. Anyway, he would not affect the progress of his Tianzhu and internal strength cultivation just for the sake of ranking.
However, Shentu Youshan said that if he ranks first in the battle merit rankings, he can choose a low-grade killing weapon and a magic weapon. Lu Chenzhou himself has a tiger-daring spear, so he is not interested in the ranking. But other martial arts prodigies who do not have magic weapons are indeed It was understandable that he would fight tooth and nail for it. Lu Chenzhou gradually realized the benefits of the divine weapon.
He looked at the rankings of other people in Dragon City.
"Fang Xue is actually ranked fifth. It seems that she has gained a lot. This woman is a soldier. Her overall strength should be close to the end realm and she can hunt down the great voids in the middle realm. Li Fu is not as good as me. She is actually outside the 100th place. Wang Hongdao and they are together."
…
In the blink of an eye, it was day 27 of the training.
Lu Chenzhou would be able to go home in three days. During this period, he slept every two days. Under the high-intensity fighting and training, his body and mind were indeed a little tired.
Fortunately, the main goal of his trip was achieved.
First-class marksmanship is achieved, perfection is not far away!
During breakfast, everyone in Longcheng was chatting.
Fang Xue suddenly warned:
"Everyone, please be careful in the next three days and don't let down your guard. Li Guyi is not weaker than me, but he almost died yesterday and was seriously injured... and the one who attacked him was not Daxu, but someone lurking in this land.
Cultists.”
She was very happy.
District 9, where Dragon City is located, is relatively safe, and everyone is fine. Ning De, who was greedy for merit, almost died in a natural disaster, and finally came back without any danger. In other schools, including the remaining Xiu from the beginning, 2 people died and 35 people died.
Injury, the loss is not small.
These are all top martial arts geniuses.
Every time one of them is lost, the martial arts club feels heartbroken.
But this is a life and death experience. The two people who died in the virtual realm did not listen to good advice and went to the natural disaster restricted area without permission. The experience not only exercises courage and will, but also tests the ability to respond to various complex situations such as judgment.
In martial arts, one must learn to assess the situation, cherish oneself, and seek wealth and honor in danger, but only in moderation. If you pursue it with a sense of luck, you will harm yourself.
Li Fu frowned and said:
"Cultists? How did they get in? The intersection of Taihu Virtual Realm is tightly guarded by the military, unless some people sneak into the team. But the testers this time are all martial arts geniuses from various schools, and it is difficult for cultists to stay undercover.
Among them."
Others were also a little confused.
Shentu Youshan walked over with his hands behind his back and said solemnly:
"They are indeed cultists... There are three possibilities for their appearance here. One is the intersection leading to this oasis. It is not just Taihu Lake. There may be other tiny intersections in the deep mountains and forests, and they are controlled by the cult.
.
The second is that these cultists have lived in the virtual realm for a long time, or have obtained some means of freely traveling to and from the virtual realm through communication with evil gods.
Third, there are cult traitors among the people in this oasis.
Either way, it's not a good thing. The cultists will definitely not miss this great opportunity to ambush and kill martial arts geniuses in the wild. In addition, the black warrior forces in Sioux City may also take this opportunity to cooperate with the cult and work together."
Everyone looked heavy when they heard this.
There are mountain roads in Shentu:
"Currently, the military masters are trying to find ways to encircle and suppress the cultists, but the next step will definitely be a protracted battle, so the difficulty of your trial has also been upgraded.
Taking into account the special circumstances, the Martial Arts Ministry has conveyed instructions.
In this trial, if your combat merit exceeds 300, you are qualified. If you have enough combat merit and are concerned, just stay in the stronghold for these three days. After three days, the incoming armored vehicle will take you to the intersection of Taihu Lake.
After leaving the virtual realm, the armored vehicles will be escorted by military experts, so cultists will not dare to come and cause trouble.
During these three days, you can move around freely in the stronghold, you can practice, and you can also take this opportunity to interact and get to know each other with the martial arts geniuses from other schools."
As soon as Shentu Youshan finished speaking, Li Fu raised his hand and said:
"Then I won't go."
If it weren't for school duties, Li Fu wouldn't even bother to come.
Li Jiu thought for a while and said helplessly:
"I've had enough, I won't go out anymore."
His strength was at the bottom among the trialists No. 300. He was a little scared when he recalled his previous experiences of stepping into the natural disaster restricted area.
He was very lucky to come back alive.
Wang Hongdao remained unmoved.
He came to the virtual realm just to struggle through life and death and seek a breakthrough.
Anyway, he doesn't go to the natural disaster restricted area, just at the boundary of the oasis.
It's bad luck, he admits it.
That's his specialty, and his skills are inferior to others.
Lu Chenzhou decided to spend the last few days wandering around the oasis, trying his luck, and not going far away to take risks. He now has 900 combat merits, and is only 100 short of being able to exchange for the Bashen belt. He won't wait until next time. The belt is limited to exchange, so first
Come first served.
…
Day 28 of training.
District 9.
On the edge of the oasis, in the mist and miasma, a tall and muscular figure walked forward with a gun in his hand. Lu Chenzhou's high-end protective clothing was now full of scars. During this period, the virtual objects he encountered were all monsters, and the protective barrier was of no use.
"This high-end protective clothing is still very good in the human world, but on the battlefield, the material wears out too quickly under long-term fighting.
The cold silkworm clothing is better, it is light and weightless, the ice armor can resist both spiritual attacks and physical attacks, and the material itself is also very tough and elastic.
Wearing it on the body is equivalent to covering the whole body."
Lu Chenzhou was already thinking about that robe.
A mountain wind blew from the Black Bone Mountain in the distance, bringing waves of fog and miasma. As Lu Chenzhou walked, he found that he could no longer see his fingers.
This kind of weather is very common in oases. It is commonly known as "downhill fog". It is not a natural disaster, but the fog can easily obscure the line of sight and also contains a certain degree of toxicity.
There has been a broadcast coming from the stronghold.
[It’s foggy weather down the mountain, all testers should pay attention to safety...]
"Forget it, go back."
Lu Chenzhou put safety first and turned back to leave.
"Kekeke..."
To be continued...
