Chapter 21: The Healing of the Church

"Do you have any proposals?"

Röntgen asked with an unusually enthusiastic smile, and when he said this, the fluctuations that Chu Ge felt from the blood gem were a little stronger.

Is there some conspiracy......

He suddenly realized that not only entering the national academy, but even participating in this freshman trial was a small part of the plan to heal the church.

Thinking of this, Chu Ge couldn't help but be a little more vigilant about the next trip.

Although the Healing Church hadn't made any major moves against the National Academy in the three years he remembered, it would never be nice to let Röntgen lurk.

The fat man who had spoken before immediately replied when he heard someone answer his words:

"I have an idea, but before that, I want to ask the teacher, since this action is rewarded, then the reward should be different, not everyone is the same, right?"

At this time, a young man in a teacher's uniform appeared, he was the driver of the dragon car just now, and he also had the strength of the early stage of the third order.

After settling down to walk the dragon, he walked over slowly and carefully, and happened to hear the fat student's question again, so he replied casually:

"That's right, your rewards are at the final destination, and the number is limited on a first-come, first-served basis, and those who go late may not be available...... You get ready, and in five minutes you'll be on the first level of the maze. ”

After finishing speaking, he looked at everyone with a playful expression, and the provocative meaning in his words was obvious.

Just as Chu Ge expected, after the young teacher had just finished speaking, the originally calm expressions of many new students immediately turned into wariness, and there was a faint hostility in their eyes towards each other.

"But, teacher, didn't you tell us before that you weren't allowed to go alone until you arrived at your destination?"

The fat man immediately asked this question for Chu Ge.

The leading teacher smiled slightly and said:

"That's right, as long as you make sure that you don't 'fall alone' in the process of traveling, this is a necessary condition for moving forward."

As soon as he finished speaking, Chu Ge noticed that most of the freshmen's faces began to look ugly, while the other few showed gloating smiles.

There was no doubt that the smile was on the part of the freshmen who could easily form a team with acquaintances, Chu Ge and You were also among them, they were ready to rush to their destination as soon as the time came.

"Do you mean you can move on as long as you form multiple squads? So what about those who are left alone, will there be any punishment? ”

This time, it was another teacher who led the team and said:

"Those who are left alone will lose the opportunity for this reward, as long as there are no other students within fifty meters of themselves, the temporary runes on your ribbon will automatically disappear, and you will not be able to enter even if you reach your final destination."

"By the way, you are allowed to attack each other until the goal is achieved, but the person who actively attacks will be expelled, so please think about the consequences before you do it."

In state academies, the item used to determine the status of a cadet is the ribbon on his chest. In addition to the difference in color and shape, the higher the status level, the more ribbons can be used.

Just when many new students began to worry, the fat man took this opportunity and immediately said to everyone:

"Did you hear that? If you leave an order, you will lose your qualification this time! ”

"'I don't have a single acquaintance, so it's easy to be left behind' – I think most of the people in the room have the same idea as I am, bothered by this question."

"So, I hope that strangers will join me in forming a group, a group that promises not to leave anyone behind...... After all, no one wants to be the one left behind. ”

The fat man made a flawed suggestion, at least in Chu Ge's opinion.

Don't worry about being left behind - this condition sounds great, but such a temporary team will certainly not be able to carry out as fast as a squad of acquaintances, and if there are wounded, all sorts of problems will arise.

"I'm willing to join!"

What made Chu Ge's eyes narrow was that Röntgen was the first to agree to participate in the temporary team, and he also said to everyone,

"Let's come together, if anyone is injured, I will treat him immediately, and provide special medicine for free, and I will definitely not let him lose this reward opportunity because of injury."

As he spoke, he patted his backpack and warmly invited the others.

With the assurance of the trauma expert, the temporary team became a lot more reliable, and two more people immediately chose to join.

The rest of the people are also a little moved, and it may be better to join this temporary team than to find someone they don't know to set off.

At this time, the five-minute time limit had also arrived, and immediately some students set off and rushed towards the entrance of the first floor of the maze.

There were two squads, a trio and a quartet, who had apparently known each other before, and two of the four teachers followed.

"Except for me and You, the remaining twelve are all lone students. ’

Chu Ge found that the strongest leading teacher was watching him and You, as if waiting for them to leave.

"Let's go too." You tugged at Chu Ge's cuffs and whispered.

Chu Ge squinted at Roentgen, and after thinking for a few seconds, he said to You:

"Don't rush yet, wait a little longer."

Because they were worried that the two teams that would be set off ahead of schedule were the first to get there, the rest of the people no longer hesitated and joined in one after another, but there were still discerning people who questioned the fat man's suggestion:

"Hey, didn't you say before that there was no cooperation between us, and it was easy to be in danger, how to solve this problem?"

The fat man touched his neck, did not answer the question, but said with a smile:

"I've been exploring this labyrinth with my family since I was fifteen years old, and it's been two years now, and I still know the terrain of the first three floors, and I also know some shortcuts to get to the third floor quickly."

A quick shortcut to the third floor, this sentence immediately attracted the attention of everyone left, and even Yuu raised his pointed hat.

Before the members of the makeshift team could show their joy, the fat man continued:

"There is no such thing as a job that you don't have to give, and if you want to move forward with me, you must make sure that you follow my command when you fight!"

"Although I'm not an expert in tactics, I have a lot of experience in commanding teams in the past two years, and my command is definitely much more reliable than a group of you guys messing around!"

Although these arrogant freshmen were disgusted by the "obedience to command", their reason told them that this was the best way to do it right now, so no one objected to it.

"Sounds great, can we join us?"

Just as the temporary team of twelve people was about to leave, Chu Ge came over and made a request to join.

"Oh? Aren't you already able to form a squad and move forward, why do you want to join us? ”

The fat man's name is Tyr, and in order to cooperate with the future progress, there was a detailed information exchange between the temporary team just now.

Chu Ge shrugged his shoulders and said:

"There are only two of us, and I'm still a second-order player who has just broken through, so it's still very difficult for this kind of team to mix in the third layer."

"Heh, I think you heard that there was a shortcut to take before you wanted to join." One of the men on the makeshift team couldn't help but say.

The fat man Tyr didn't care, but said with a smile:

"It's okay to join, but you should have heard the requests just now."

Chu Ge nodded: "Of course." ”

The number of temporary teams rose to fourteen.

*********

Four hours later, the second floor of the Olali Labyrinth.

Under the interference attack of the whirlwind, a lizard with moss on its back revealed its flaws, and Chu Ge saw the opportunity to cut off its head with a sword.

【SP+12】

After being promoted to the second tier, the first-tier creatures are no longer able to provide him with SP, and the SP provided by second-tier creatures has also decreased significantly.

Although it had just entered the cave, this was already the second moss lizard that Chu Ge had killed.

The previous one doesn't have the help of Yu, and the SP value gained after a solo kill is 16.

The location they were now in was a damp cave** on the second floor, white phosphorescent light emanating from between the moss on the cave wall, and from time to time, several early second-order moss lizards would emerge from the cave** to attack the new students.

The two leading teachers hung far behind, enjoying the safe road cleared by the freshmen.

"This passage is really gloomy, and the number of monsters seems to be a bit unusual, if it weren't for a team of more than ten people like us, maybe we wouldn't be able to get through."

Röntgen still had his warm smile, but the weapon in his hand was wielding it more vigorously.

Fat Tyre buried a badly wounded moss lizard with wet mud soil, and he sighed and said:

"Otherwise, why would I gather so many companions before setting out, although there are shortcuts, but some places are not easy to pass."

"This cave is a path to the third level, but it is inhabited by moss lizards with social characteristics, and it is dangerous to enter casually if you don't have enough combat power."

The vast anomaly of the Great Labyrinth of Olari is not only the entrance to the surface, but also the open passages between each level have more than hundreds, which is why it is called a dungeon.

Due to the location of the dragon car, the starting point of the new students is not too far from the final destination of the third floor, and if they can keep moving fast, they can reach it in about six hours.

Six hours of non-stop rapid progress is a drain on the maze veteran, and there are no surprises on the way.

In addition to powerful monsters, the various attritions that go deep into the labyrinth are also a big enemy for adventurers.

According to Fat Teel, if there were no guys familiar with the maze in the two groups that set off early, then it would be no surprise to walk for a day.

The cave they've chosen now will arrive at their destination at least two hours earlier than the normal route, and if the other two teams are unlucky, they might not even be able to see the dregs of the reward.

"Oh! This damn monster! ”

Because the cave ** was not wide, a freshman swung out a spear and hit the wall of the cave, and he himself was bitten on the thigh by the moss lizard that rushed out in front of him.

Chu Ge quickly rushed over, and while the moss lizard was biting wildly, he pulled out the dagger behind his waist and stabbed it into its eyes, and then punched down hard at the end of the dagger, allowing the sharp blade to plunge into the lizard's brain.

【SP+15】

"Shhh...... Thanks, this beast's attack is terrible! ”

After shaking off the mosslid's lifeless head, the injured freshman bared his teeth and grumbled as he tried to stop the bleeding, as if it would ease the pain in his legs.

"Are you hurt? Let me help you. ”

After seeing that someone was injured, Röntgen immediately rushed over in a hurry, took out the props in his backpack and began to disinfect and bandage the other party.

Not only is his handling of wounds extremely skillful, but he also tries not to interfere with the victim's subsequent movements, and this kind of clever ambulance staff will be welcomed wherever they are.

"This is my special medicine, and the wound will heal quickly if you drink it."

After completing the bandage, Roentgen also took out a miniature bottle of potion from his backpack, which contained about thirty milliliters of blue liquid, which was extremely viscous when shaken.

“…… The smell of blood, Ino, do you smell it? ”

Just as Röntgen opened the bottle of potion, You's brows immediately furrowed, and he whispered to Chu Ge.

Chu Ge was stunned and asked:

"Not the smell of blood? Is it the smell of blood? ”

"Yes, very full-bodied......"

Yu nodded with difficulty, she didn't understand where the deep feeling of resistance in her heart came from, and none of the new students around her noticed the abnormality from the potion.

- Blood therapy!

Although the color of the appearance and the way of using it were far from what he remembered, Chu Ge believed that this was the blood therapy that healed the church.

"Okay...... How is this possible!? ”

Originally, when he drank the potion, the freshman didn't feel anything, but when he got up and walked around, he immediately sensed that something was wrong, and his eyes widened.

The wound on his thigh that was deeply bitten by a lizard was actually healed in just ten seconds!

It's not that it numbs the pain, but that the wound does heal!

Some high-grade potions do have that effect, but can they be used casually on a temporary companion?

After noticing the strange reaction of the new students around him, Röntgen patted his backpack and said with a smile:

"I've already said before, I will never let others lose this reward opportunity because of injury, I have a lot of special drugs, so let's go forward boldly." His smile was unusually enthusiastic, as if expecting the other freshmen to get hurt.

After hearing his words, everyone felt an overwhelming sense of peace of mind in their hearts, and they were glad that they had joined this temporary team.

Only You and Chu Ge had other ideas about this.

You showed rejection because of her instinct, while Chu Ge understood the details and thought quickly in his heart.

'Blood therapy is the manufacture of medicine by using diluted blood from the ancient gods...... So can those potions also replenish the blood of the ancient gods in the blood gem? ’

Just now, when Roentgen opened his backpack, he saw a lot of "special medicine".
