Chapter Forty-Six: The Red Valley Forest
"Night Song, this game is dangerous, there are some things you must pay attention to..."
Eisuke is explaining some precautions to Yeming for the game, and Yingzhu is very enthusiastic and tells Yeming almost all of his experience.
"These are all my experiences, Yeming, you remember, brother, I have participated in it three times!"
"Eun, I see, thank you, Mr. Eisuke. ”
In fact, this kind of unruled, unlimited wilderness survival battle is the stage for Yeming to show his strength, not only because Yeming is an excellent sniper, but also because this kind of combat is his domain.
For Nightsong, the battle to survive in the wild could not be more familiar. He has been trained by Bled since he was a child, and he has long been familiar with surviving alone in the forests of Wandering Street, sorting food, setting traps, catching wild beasts, checking terrain and hydrology, avoiding danger zones, and so on.
Having lived like a beast for many years, Nightsong has a natural premonition of danger, a secret sense of excitement about assassination, and although he knows that killing is not good, there is always a strange pleasure when the fate of others is in his own hands.
There are five days left until the start of the race.
During this time, Yeming was doing a very important thing - making money. Since buying the spirit talisman, Yeming is so poor that he can't even afford a drink...
He originally wanted to open a shop around Qianling City and sell his few psionic cards, but when he actually did it, he found that it was not easy to occupy a place there, and the areas where people moved were basically occupied.
Nightsong inserts a small sign in a remote place, specializing in psionic cards. It took a whole day from morning to night, and he only sold 2 Soul Cards and 2 Crystal Shield Psionic Cards, and they were sold for 22 Diamond Coins, which was lower than the original price of the mold.
But Ye Ming also gladly accepted it, after all, this was the first time he had refined a psionic card, and his spiritual power was only level 136, which was naturally much worse than a psionic card that could be rated, and it was already very good to be able to sell it at this price.
After Yeming got more than 80 diamond coins, he stopped buying and selling, and the money was enough for him to live.
In the following days, Ye Ming concentrated on cultivation, occasionally pondering the refining of psionic cards and spiritual weapons, but now he had no money to buy materials, and he could only simulate them repeatedly in his mind.
Finally, the day of the competition has arrived.
Yanari and Eisuke ride a "plane" arranged by the Psionic Association to the competition venue of Group 8. Ye Ming thought of Ye Shao's grandfather again at this moment, he remembered that when he was a child, Ye Shao had told him about this tool, and this was the first time Ye Ming had seen it.
A total of 204 contestants will be dropped off in a primeval forest on Cheongpyeong Road, the Honggu Great Forest.
This is also the jurisdiction of the Psionic Master Association, they have stocked many spirit beasts in the forest, planted many spirit grasses, and after hundreds of years of transformation, this piece of mortal land has become a spiritual land, which contains many heaven and earth spiritual objects that psionics dream of.
Many psykers come here for the competition and for treasure hunting. However, the people who can really get the treasures of heaven and earth are generally the winners. Because, in this area where there are no rules, killing and danger exist all the time, maybe you just got the treasure one second, and the next second someone cut your neck.
"Dear participants, welcome to the second session of the psionic exam, this is the Red Valley Great Forest, and it is the eighth arena of this exam. In order for everyone to understand in advance, please allow me to introduce the rules and precautions of the competition, first...
A middle-aged woman wearing the uniform of the association spoke to everyone, and Ye Ming observed with the spirit eye technique, this is a two-star psyker, and it should be the examiner of this field.
What she said was pretty much the same as what Eisuke told Yanaru.
The Psionic Guild placed 12 metal tokens in the Great Forest of the Red Valley and gave each person a detector that could be used to view a map, grasp the location of the end point, and know the initial location of the token. Once the psyker has the token, they can use the tools on the detector to dispel the token's senses, making it impossible for others to track the token holder.
The competition lasts for 6 days, and those who finally get the token and reach the finish line are considered to have passed the exam, while those who fail to get the token, or fail to reach the finish line, or die halfway, will be eliminated.
The 204 contestants, divided into more than ten groups according to the order of numbers, entered the Red Valley Forest one by one from different areas, and after entering, the competition officially began, and the contestants were no longer protected by the Psyker Association.
"Brother, I'll go in first, we have a chance to meet again, we must come on!"
Eisuke patted Yaming on the shoulder and said earnestly.
"Well, Mr. Eisuke-san has to come on, too. ”
Nightshade responded. In order to help Eisuke successfully pass the exam, Yaming gave him four psionic cards, one of which was the "Glow" technique. Eisuke refuses to say no at first, but Yaming forcibly shoves it into him, so Eisuke is moved to accept it.
Actually, for Yeming, those psionic cards didn't have much effect. During this period of time, he felt very close to Eisuke's family, and Yaming liked Eisuke's family very much, and he thought that if Eisuke could pass the exam, Rika and Emi would be very happy.
"At least, we can't let him have an accident. ”
Nightsong muttered.
After a while, Yeming, led by the staff, came to a forest entrance, and every two minutes, a contestant entered to avoid crowds or collisions.
After waiting for more than ten minutes, Yeming also took his equipment and walked into the Red Valley Forest.
The sparse chirping of cicadas from far and near, the red-green intersecting woods flickering under the reflection of the sun, and the howls of several beasts broke the silence, startling flocks of wild birds to fly out of the trees, like trees shaking their leaves, like heavenly maidens scattering flowers, and like rippling waves, spreading from one point to the distance.
"Big brother, this red-headed lion is worth a lot of money. ”
"Tsk, I didn't expect to catch a spirit beast so quickly, let's work harder, try to catch a few more before the big war starts, and then let's find a cave to hide and not participate in their robbery battle. ”
"Well, big brother wise, we are mainly using the opportunity to hunt spirit beasts this time, and we will not participate in the matter of the competition. ”
With that, the two psionics dismembered a huge lion and collected the bones, fur, and other useful parts.
But before the two of them had taken a few steps, a huge tiger standing on two legs flashed in front of them, this tiger's body structure was actually the same as a human, the skeleton and body were similar to a human form, if it were not for the huge tiger head, sharp tiger claws, and dark yellow fur all over the body, it would be like a human with muscles all over it.
"This is, a three-star spirit animal, a tiger head ape!
Before they could finish speaking, a tiger's claw smashed their heads like a watermelon, and the broken bones mixed with flesh and brains sprayed around, and their broken wounds were bleeding like a torrent of blood, and the two headless corpses fell to the ground with a pop, and the tiger-headed ape plucked out their hands and feet, and ate them with a clatter.
At this time, everyone was hiding in various places in the Red Valley Great Forest, and some of them had already begun to move in the direction of the token, but none of them knew about the changes that had taken place here.
