Rumble!!!
Crash!!!
A loud thunder sounded in the sky above Ten Thousand Beasts Canyon.
At this time, the sky was covered with dark clouds, and raindrops were falling down.
The hurricane swept through the entire canyon, and countless flowers, plants, and trees were swaying in the storm.
In the light of the fire in the cave, the five of them had their first full meal in the past few days.
“Lin Yuan, are we still keeping watch tonight?”
Lin Yuan nodded while eating the sawtooth horse meat.
“Yes.”
“I don’t feel so secure.”
“Because of the mechanical chip?”
“Yes.”
Jiang Yining naturally knew what Lin Yuan was talking about.
Since these fierce beasts were under the control of the military academy, they could attack them at any time.
They had to be prepared at all times.
…
Late at night, the rain became heavier, filling the entire sky.
“Awoo…”
“They can’t control the weather, right?”
Wu Di leaned against the entrance of the cave and yawned as he looked at the splashing rain outside the cave.
He had just slept for more than three hours when he was woken up by Han Yu. If he had not forced himself to stand guard, he might have fallen asleep.
“Sigh…”
“It’s too late to regret.”
Wu Di wanted to cry but had no tears. This was his 108th regret in eight days.
If he had applied for Dongdu College, he would be eating hairy crabs at home at this moment.
On this night, he couldn’t eat his fill, wear warm clothes, and even sleep…
Just as Wu Di was reminiscing…
Wu Di suddenly felt a faint light sweep across his body!
In that instant, Wu Di’s entire body was covered in goosebumps.
“What the hell!”
The sense of danger formed by the tense heartstrings over the past eight days made Wu Di immediately rush out of the cave and look around.
Faint light.
Streams of faint light pierced through the surrounding forest.
“I…”
“F*ck…”
Wu Di subconsciously took a step back, his face turned pale.
In the forest not far away, a three-headed monster slowly walked out!
Green mucus flowed from the corners of each head’s mouth, and their eyes emitted a green light.
“Lin Yuan…”
“Lin Yuan!!”
Wu Di’s expression was filled with panic, and his hoarse voice seemed to be about to lose its voice as he roared furiously towards the cave!
The crazy voice instantly woke up Lin Yuan who was sleeping soundly, and he looked outside the cave!
“Lin Yuan! Three-headed monster! There are so many three-headed monsters!”
“Run!”
Wu Di’s words were a little incoherent, but Lin Yuan could feel his fear!
“Wake up! Wake up!”
The other three people who were sleeping had fallen into a deep sleep due to the tiredness of the past few days.
Lin Yuan did not care about being gentle with women and he violently shook the three of them up!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The sound of Wu Di and the three-headed monsters fighting in the heavy rain could be heard from the outside.
“What’s going on?”
Han Yu had just fallen asleep. He was still in a trance.
“Let’s go!”
Lin Yuan did not have time to explain too much. The Mechanized Crossbow in his hand instantly condensed and rushed out of the cave.
Crack!
A thick bolt of lightning suddenly streaked across the sky, casting a pale light on the pitch-black night sky.
The wind whistled, and the rain poured down.
Wu Di held the Sparrow Moon Longsword and slashed at the three-headed monster that was charging at him!
After overcoming his fear, Wu Di’s every slash was full of power.
However, the ground was slippery on the rainy night, so Wu Di could not perform his speed perfectly.
As the battle started, more and more three-headed monsters joined the battle, and the pressure on Wu Di multiplied!
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Lin Yuan’s bolts whistled past Wu Di and continuously shot into the three-headed monsters’ bodies!
However, the three-headed monster was a level two beast. Whether it was in terms of vitality or combat strength, it was much stronger than the sawtooth horse that they had killed before.
The Black Gold Bolt shot into the body of a three-headed monster. The huge impact sent it flying a few meters away.
The next moment, the three-headed monster pounced at Lin Yuan again, leaping three meters high!
Lin Yuan aimed the Mechanized Crossbow at the three-headed monster in the air and shot it out decisively!
With a whoosh, the head in the middle shattered.
Green brain matter flowed all over the ground, washed away by the heavy rain.
Han Yu, Jiang Yining, and Jiang Lu immediately rushed out of the cave. Seeing Wu Di’s critical situation, they immediately joined the battle!
“The cave entrance is too big. We can’t retreat.”
“We have to escape.”
The rain splashed on everyone’s faces. Lin Yuan immediately judged the current situation and shouted at the crowd, “Quick!”
“Retreat into the canyon!”
“Wu Di, let’s move!”
…
In the military base, a few instructors stood in front of the big screen in the center, watching Lin Yuan and the other three escape!
The most important purpose of this freshmen assessment was not to test but to let all the freshmen realize that they had already arrived at the military academy.
During this process, if there were any outstanding seedlings, the military academy would also pay attention to them and arrange them to Combat Division One.
“Mechanical-type?”
One of the instructors was surprised when he saw Lin Yuan’s Mechanized Crossbow.
They were not unfamiliar with his type, because Old Man Luo in the military academy was a mechanical-type martial artist.
They were surprised by Lin Yuan’s mastery of the spirit skill “Mechanized Crossbow”. Almost every bolt could hit the target accurately at high speed.
This required not only practice but also talent.
“That yellow-haired boy and the thunder-type girl are both pretty good.”
“Yeah.”
The instructors kept discussing.
From the second stage onwards, the progress of this team was extremely fast and stable.
Lin Yuan’s decision-making, including the arrangement of killing the sawtooth horses, was also without any problems.
“Add,” Zheng Yin looked at the screen and coldly said one word.
The staff of the military base hesitated and asked, “Do… Do you want to add more?”
Zheng Yin coldly said, “Yes.”
The staff nodded and then continued to operate the control machine in front of him.
What they meant by “add” was to increase the difficulty.
Zheng Yin wanted to see what the limit of this group of freshmen was.
“Level three fierce beast, human-faced centipede.”
The staff looked at Zheng Yin and Zheng Yin nodded slightly. The staff could only input commands.
In the next moment, in the Ten Thousand Beasts Canyon, a centipede that was nearly a hundred meters long began to surge in the dark night.
…
It was extremely difficult to escape on a rainy night. Wu Di’s left leg was hurting faintly, but he was still helping the team to cover the rear, continuously killing the three-headed monsters at the rear.
In this team, Lin Yuan was a level two martial artist, while Han Yu was a long-range mage-type martial artist. Only he and Jiang Yining could be the main force in a frontal battle.
Swoosh!
Wu Di’s left leg, which was moving at high speed, stepped on the slippery ground. Suddenly, he staggered and fell backward.
“Ah!!!”
A three-headed monster seized the opportunity and instantly pounced on Wu Di.
It opened its bloody mouth and bit at Wu Di!
Right at this moment, a precise Black Gold Bolt pierced through the rainy night and accurately hit the three-headed monster on Wu Di’s body!
Green blood splattered all over Wu Di’s face, but before he could recover, Lin Yuan pulled Wu Di up.
“Don’t stargaze!”
“Let’s go!”
Lin Yuan’s roar woke Wu Di up from his terror.
In the distance, Han Yu kept releasing fireballs to kill the three-headed monster around him. At the same time, he also shouted, “Move! Move!”
“D*mn it!”
“We can’t hold on much longer!”
Feeling the number of spirit stones in his interspatial ring, Lin Yuan’s face turned serious.
Every time he shot out a Black Gold Bolt, he could not take it back on the rainy night.
If this continued, the support he could provide to the team would be greatly reduced..
