The next day, Cheng Xi slowly increased the number of mutant beasts after assessing everyone's strength, striving to fully utilize everyone's maximum potential.
The effect of 1 plus 1 is sometimes much greater than 2.
The reorganization of the two teams once again proved the correctness of this statement with facts.
After three days of running in, Mu Jin and others quickly adapted to this high-intensity state.
“Did I break through?”
"I broke through!"
"Ah ah, I really broke through!"
After three people broke through the small steps in succession, everyone cheered, and the emotion called joy filled the team. .
Mu Jin felt some loose power in her body, and looked at Cheng Xi with gratitude.
“Thank you, Captain Cheng.”
"You're welcome, it's the result of their own efforts."
Cheng Xi has fully accepted the title of captain, "I don't take the credit. It's them who hunt the mutant beasts. If they don't work hard enough, they won't." There will be promotion.”
And she just provided an opportunity.
Or should we advance this opportunity?
Mu Jin chuckled, no longer worrying about whose contribution it was, but he was even more ferocious when hunting mutant beasts.
The points of these people increased rapidly at a fairly regular rate. During the day, there was a wave of crazy increases almost every hour, and the rankings also skyrocketed from the initial drop.
Tang Tang and Gu Chaoxi responded calmly.
However, Song Hui did not have such good self-cultivation, and he would say that he was enjoying himself every time he took a break.
“Now I understand why you have been at the top of the standings.”
With such an incredible existence as Yin Beast Fans, as long as your physical strength is still good, your points can keep rising. The hang is simply turned on!
"Don't think about good things. The reason why it rose so fast is because we encountered low-level mutant beasts. If a fifth-level mutant appears one day, they will all die, okay?"
Gu Chaoxi ruthlessly broke his Beautiful fantasy, "and you don't feel like every time Are the numbers of mutated beasts coming in an orderly manner? If they were to be unleashed uncontrollably, they would die."
"."
Song Hui is so cold. He shuddered and looked at Cheng Xi with even more awe.
God!
"By the way, are you sure Captain Cheng is a student of the Department of Supernatural Powers? Why don't you apply for the Department of Pharmacy with such a good talent in pharmacy?"
"Our captain's cooking skills are quite good. According to what you said, why should he go to a military academy? Ah, I can just go home and make money.”
“.” I’m speechless?
Song Hui wondered secretly, "So what is your Team Cheng not good at?"
"Good question, I want to know too."
Gu Chaoxi paused, recalling the harmonious scene of accidentally seeing Shen Xingluo repairing the mecha in the tent with Cheng Xi helping him, and suddenly became a little uncertain.
You can see at a glance what tools are needed and hand them over as soon as possible. Even if you are not proficient, you still understand the basic structure, right?
These lovers are not human!
The two looked at each other, and at this moment their brain circuits magically overlapped, and they both sighed.
“It’s so irritating to compare people to each other~”
"Who says it's not?"
After the break, the 12 people set off again, and then harvested another wave of mutated beast heads, and so on.
When the mutant beasts they encountered were generally fourth-level intermediates, the countdown to the actual combat assessment for freshmen entered.
Song Hui put his share of mutant beasts into the space with a wave of his hand, feeling a little disappointed.
“Star God, it’s over in three days, and I’m actually a little reluctant to give up?”
"I, too, have gone crazy killing mutant beasts these days."
"Ah, why is the assessment period only 15 days? I can accept another half month!"
>"If I go out, will I never be able to taste Captain Cheng's craftsmanship again?"
Gu Chao Xi Wenyan couldn't look any more disgusted, and slapped him, "Obviously it's me who's cooking, so there's hard work without credit, right? Are those eyes of yours just for show?!"
"But so are you. What is the difference between learning now and selling it now, and eating Captain Cheng’s craftsmanship?”
"Oh, do you dare to say this again in front of Shen Xingluo?"
"."
Song Hui was silent for a moment.
I don’t dare, I really don’t dare. Although Classmate Shen didn’t take action much along the way, his image in the hearts of everyone is simply more majestic than Captain Mu.
Laughing to death, no one will offend him, and he is not impatient anymore.
"Haha, if you have the ability, you can be tough, I can do a good deed and send you a message."
"I was wrong, Brother Gu, your cooking skills are one of the best in the world, everyone who sees it will be impressed by it." I can't help but praise my good skills. Your current cooking skills are better than my own!"
"."I was wrong, brother, please spare my life!"
Gu Chaoxi quickly covered his mouth and couldn't help but glance at Shen Xingluo who was resting next to him. He was relieved when he saw that there was no special reaction from the other party.
Fortunately, I reacted quickly and almost sacrificed myself.
The next second, the two of them met Cheng Xi, who was smiling. At this time, she was holding the ordinary little bag and shaking it.
"Everyone has adapted to it these days, do you want to increase the difficulty?"
"!!!"
***
One The powder to attract the beasts was sprinkled down, and everyone was ready to prepare.
This time, even Mu Jin tensed up all the cells in his body and assumed an offensive posture, preparing for another round of battle.
Yes, battle.
This time it is no longer a unilateral massacre, but a truly evenly matched fight.
From time to time, the sounds of passing birds came from the silent forest, adding a bit of vitality to the world. However, everyone still did not relax their vigilance. As the heavy and chaotic footsteps sounded, their hearts were already jumping. Throat.
“Oh my god, just listening to the footsteps sounds like there are a lot of them.”
"And there are no third-level mutant beasts here, they are all fourth-level, or even higher!"
"Is it true that Yingyingying won't be able to take off this time?"
"No way. , Captain Mu and Captain Cheng, relax, maybe they can break through after this time."
A few people comforted themselves to cheer up their companions, and the next second they saw the mutation rushing towards them. Everyone's eyes widened in horror when the beasts appeared.
“Holy shit, shit, shit, why is it a mutated cheetah?”
"Oh my god, it's really a mutated cheetah. What should I do?"
"I feel a pressure. These leopards can't reach the fourth level, right?"
“!!!”
Brother, don’t talk nonsense, people are scared to death!
Looking around, more than twenty mutated cheetahs were coming at an incredible speed. Gu Chaoxi, who was standing in front, was thrown to the ground before he could even locate their position.
"Captain Cheng, Boss Shen, I can't help but help!"
Shen Xingluo teleported to his side, and the metal blade in his palm accurately shot the mutated cheetah through.
"Don't panic, concentrate on feeling with your heart, closing your eyes may have better effects."
The calm and plain voice passed into Gu Chaoxi's ears through the thick mecha. His panic seemed to be driven away by Shen Xingluo's words, and he also became much calmer. He closed his eyes and quietly experienced it for the first time.
One second, two seconds, three seconds.
The sounds of mechas clashing, the roars of mutated beasts, and Tang Tang shouting from time to time were constantly heard in his ears. Gu Chaoxi concentrated on distinguishing the different sounds, and his heart gradually calmed down.
“Huh?”
Why are different little dots appearing in my head?
Green, yellow, red and green have remained in place, red and yellow are intertwined from time to time, and then the red gradually goes out.
Wait? Go out!
Gu Chaoxi opened his eyes suddenly, "I feel it!"
Green is the mutant plants nearby, yellow represents humans, and the ones that occasionally go out are mutant beasts!
Cheng Xi kicked away a mutated beast in front of him and listened to his words, "Then lock them and attack them with mental power!"
"Okay, look at me. !”
Gu Chaoxi concentrated on dealing with the red dots, still closing his eyes. The entire mecha stood in place without moving at all. However, several mutant beasts surrounding him fell down one by one for no reason, like He suffered an unknown heavy blow.
Song Hui, who originally wanted to attack with a weapon, was stunned when he saw that the cheetah that had just bared its teeth and claws at him was completely dead.
“What the hell?”
What’s going on? Why did it fall down before I even made a move?
Is this still the strength of a fourth-level intermediary? Let’s play!
Shen Xingluo looked at everyone and said in a loud voice, "If you are physically weak, use your mental power to attack!"
After hearing this, everyone recovered from their daze, and tentatively imitated Gu Chaoxi's attack with mental power. Although everyone was not as defiant as S-level, they could still deal with the mutant beast closest to them.
So with a few "plop, plop" sounds, the last few mutated cheetahs also said goodbye to the Star God.
"Oh my God, did you succeed?"
"To be honest, this is the first time I have used my mental power like this. It feels so good!"
"It feels so good. Are you okay? My head just hurts.”
"You must have worked too hard, just rest for a while."
Mu Jin understood very well how the team members were feeling at this time. As a member of the mecha operating department, their daily training was based on superpowers. Mainly with mecha operation, mental strength is not that important. Being able to lock on a single target for the first time is a great improvement.
It seems that his cousin with S-level mental power can also kill everyone? My uncle would be extremely happy if he found out.
The battlefield was quickly cleaned up. Gu Chaoxi remained motionless except for the initial attack. After taking off his mecha, he looked fresh and clean.
Of course, it just looks like it.
"Ouch, I'm dizzy——"
"You are mentally exhausted, great hero."
Tang Tang handed him the water and sat down as he pleased. Drink tons and tons of it from a stone, and the superpowers in your body will be quickly replenished.
Nearly thirty mutated cheetahs were captured, including five high-level four and eleven intermediaries. This battle can be said to have boosted morale.
"Does this mean we can fight one against two?"
Some people can even fight one against three, and they are still at the same level!
Song Hui opened his mouth and was so happy that he couldn't find the north. This feeling was simply not too good.
"Captain Cheng, when will we increase the quantity?"
Cheng Xi: "."
Boy, do you know that you are swollen?
As a former captain and now team leader, Mu Jin's face turned dark when he heard this, "You want to run as soon as you learn to walk? It depends on your ability, don't be too ambitious in everything."
"Oh, I got it."
Song Hui humbly admitted his mistake, but the two rows of teeth exposed to the sun were still dazzlingly white.
Mu Jin: "."
Why didn't you realize this guy was stupid before?
Since this battle was too dangerous, everyone's superpowers were almost exhausted, so they fully recovered after resting for nearly two hours.
When everyone's eyes focused on the bag on Cheng Xi's waist again, a battle was about to begin.
One vs. two, one vs. three
The cooperation between the team members is becoming more and more tacit, and the eight of Mu Jin have been carrying powerful weapons, so it will be completed quickly in this day. A one versus four mission.
Mu Jin's points ranked third in the rankings, directly ousting Tang Tang.
The person involved said he was a little embarrassed
“Well, I’ve been using mechas, so it’s normal for my points to rise quickly.”
“I know.”< br>
Tang Tang’s expression did not change, “If we are to fight alone, you are not my opponent.”
"." Although, your words hurt your self-esteem, do you know?
Mu Jin originally came to talk to her to comfort her friends, but she never expected that she would be the one unable to step down in the end.
"But your mecha operation is indeed better than mine."
Tang Tang confirmed it and comforted him kindly, "Don't be nervous I will surpass you one day. After all, there’s no point in being nervous, it’s bound to happen.”
“.”
Mu Jin took a deep breath, turned around and left without saying anything.
***
On the 14th day of the actual combat assessment, the late autumn sun rose from the east, waking up the sleepy students in the tent.
After breakfast, the group walked forward again.
Cheng Xi was about to repeat his old trick when bursts of roars of mutant beasts came from ahead, the deafening force making everyone tremble.
"What's wrong, what happened in front?"
The students stayed still, their right hands were cautiously touching the mecha, and they were ready to take action at any time.
"Gu Chaoxi, use your mental power to check."
"No problem."
S-level mental power has great advantages in terrain exploration. , not to mention that Gu Chaoxi has been working hard recently to train his perception of mutant animals and plants.
He closed his eyes and looked in the direction of the sound, ten meters, twenty meters, thirty meters
As the distance continued, more and more red, yellow and green appeared in his mind.
“Holy shit, oh shit, oh shit, why are there so many teams?!”
“What’s going on?”
“There are no less than fifty people in front, surrounded by A big green dot is not moving, it is attacking!”
Gu Chaoxi translated the spectacular scene in his mind into words, and upon hearing this, the team members sketched out a scene of multiple people besieging mutated plants.
"The green one is a mutant plant? But what we just heard was an animal roar?"
"I'm pretty sure it is indeed a mutant plant."
As for Gu Chaoxi didn't know what was going on with the roar that sounded like an animal.
“How far?”
"200 meters."
Cheng Xi said, "Would you like to join in the fun? I always feel like they are doing something big."
This proposal was quickly approved by unanimous votes, and they all wanted to watch the fun. Lord, how could such an obviously big occasion be without them?
They are all scene people.
The group of people moved slowly towards the south, and the sounds reaching their ears became clearer and clearer.
When the distance to the target was less than 50 meters, everyone realized that there were not only the roars of mutated animals, but also human voices, mecha battle sounds, and weapon sounds.
"A big scene?"
Song Hui took the lead, "I saw it, there is an acquaintance!"
There is indeed an acquaintance.
Cheng Xi, who was one step behind, saw several familiar faces through the gaps between the branches, including Qi Li and Chen Mo, as well as several other students from Class 1.
Tang Tang has been eager to watch the fun, how can he hold back now? Directly control the fire power to fly into the air and move quickly in the direction of the crowd from above.
“Hey, wait for me!”
Not to be outdone, Gu Chaoxi wrapped his whole body in the quantum mecha and pressed the button to fly into the air, following closely behind.
"It's amazing to be able to fly, but what's amazing about quantum mechas?"
Song Hui touched his nose in frustration, seeing that there wasn't much left to go, so he shouldn't bother with mechas any more, so he could only Use running.
Facts have proved that Gu Chaoxi's perception was not wrong. The protagonist who was surrounded by everyone was indeed a mutated plant.
The continuous roar comes from its "mouth". Rather than a roar, it is better to say that it is a thick sound caused by the air flow generated by the swing of the wooden vines.
"What a strong pressure. How many levels has this mutated plant reached?"
"Fifth level?"
"No, definitely more than fifth level."
Tang Tang stared at the mutated plant closely, "At least it's not the fifth-level intermediate, it's much more powerful than me."
Gu Chaoxi took a breath of air, "Why is this tree so big? I'm afraid it's going to become a spirit. Let’s go!”
Shen Xingluo and Cheng Xi were the last to arrive. It was really difficult to find a gap among the tall people with powers, so they were the last to see the mutant plant. of the whole picture.
“The Whomping Willow?”
“What willow, Captain Cheng, do you know this thing?”
"Um, I don't know."
Cheng Xi glanced at the big tree waving a thick note casually, and the feeling of déjà vu was similar to that of watching a movie.
Although this is not the magical world of Harry Potter, the supernatural powers and spiritual power are not bad at all.
The large branches surrounded by nearly a hundred people in a semicircle are lush and leafy, with thick and powerful trunks and well-developed root systems. They can be seen everywhere. All the vines seem to be conscious. Every time they wave, an unlucky guy will be knocked down, and even The mecha was swept up into the sky by it.
“This tree must be a thousand years old at least.”
"That's right, it will probably take several people to hold that tree trunk."
"So why besiege it?"
For students of the supernatural department and mecha operation department Hunting mutant beasts is the top priority, there is no need to struggle with a mutant plant that has lived for thousands of years.
It is still unknown whether you will get points by killing this thing.
“Those who can get points are old and young.”
A familiar voice sounded beside Cheng Xi. When she looked sideways, she realized that Qi Li and others who were standing opposite had arrived at some point, and Chen Mo nodded to her in greeting.
"Why are you here?"
Tang Tang was very happy. After saying hello to his friends whom he hadn't seen for a long time, he brought the topic back, "Then the points for this tree How many? It’s worth so many people’s efforts.”
“It’s not worth a cent to you.”
Qi Li snorted with a rather bad expression, "Well, where is the person who really wants the life of this mutated tree!"
A few people followed his line of sight, and another familiar figure came into view. eye.
“Tang Rou?!”
Why is she here?
