Chapter 232: The Oak Tree

Du Mu couldn't help but hold his breath.

The oak trees in front of him were huge, almost as tall as seven or eight stories tall, the canopy almost touched the dome of the tower, and the dark green branches were covered with heavy brown fruits the size of a human head, so dense that they could barely be counted.

For some reason, staring at these fruits, Du Mu felt a sense of threat in his heart for no reason.

He frowned slightly, and looked at the oak tree with a scrutinizing gaze, but no corresponding words appeared.

"Not a nightmare creature?"

As if to respond to his doubts, at the edge of the oak canopy, a fruit suddenly fell to the ground with a thud.

Landing from a height of more than 20 meters, the fruit was not damaged at all, but a small hole was smashed out of the ground.

Then there was a continuous click, and a large number of cracks suddenly appeared on the surface of the fruit, and a miniature version of the withered broke open the fruit and emerged from it.

After the fruit broke, the withered one hissed at the sky, and his body swelled sharply at a speed visible to the naked eye as if it were inflated, and in the blink of an eye, it swelled to the same level as the same kind that Du Mu had met before.

After the transformation was completed, the existence of Du Mu, which the blighter quickly discovered, immediately chased after him, and the vines were thrown out halfway, tearing the air and whistling.

"It turns out that the Blighter was born from this oak tree!"

A hint of abruptness flashed in Du Mu's eyes, and he slashed the drawn vines with a casual blow, and killed head-on, and at the moment when he passed by the rushing blighter, the long sword slashed through a clever arc, and simply sank into the opponent's head.

Thump!

The body of the withered man continued to pounce forward under inertia, and scattered halfway through, while Du Mu came to the front of the oak tree and took a closer look.

Even when he looked at it so closely, the oak tree still didn't react, as if it were a real oak tree, but the fruit hanging from the branches showed its weirdness and extraordinaryness all the time.

"Each fruit represents a withered one...... It seems that there will be no need to worry about the nightmare energy income for a long time to come. Du Mu muttered softly, and a smile couldn't help but appear on the corner of his mouth, "And there is also fog." ”

He turned his head to look around, and he already had a plan in his mind.

"Digest the harvest of this layer first, and then move on. ”

"The first thing is to get rid of the blighters in the garden!"

As soon as his mind moved, a large number of gray dreams quickly appeared on the surface of Du Mu's body, surging and condensing seven or eight whirlpools, and in an instant, he saw the mist slowly drifting in the air slammed suddenly, as if he was pulled by an invisible force, and rushed towards him frantically.

And as the mutation occurred, there were also hissing sounds in the surrounding fog.

......

On the second day of the party, Du Mu received the relevant documents of the martial arts examination sent by Xia Zhituo, and the person who sent the documents was an acquaintance.

"I didn't expect that the other student who joined the assessment team was actually you. ”

Looking at Zhou Qixi, who was slightly shy and shy in front of him, Du Mu shook his head with a smile, "I should have thought of it a long time ago, after all, you are also a native of Haoguang City." ”

"I asked Teacher Xia Zhi to let me join the Haoguang City assessment team, I have been away from home for nearly a year, and I can just take this opportunity to go back!" Zhou Qixi chuckled.

"Yes. ”

Du Mu bowed his head, he also accepted the proposal to participate in the assessment team out of the idea of going back to see the old man.

"See you the day after tomorrow. ”

"Well, see you the day after tomorrow!"

After Zhou Qixi left, Du Mu returned to the living room sofa and sat down and began to flip through the documents.

With the improvement of his will attributes, he found that his thinking became more and more keen, and even his memory improved greatly, and it only took less than five minutes to browse through all the more than thirty pages of documents.

When you close your eyes and recall for a few seconds, the contents of the document are as clear as they are engraved in the depths of your mind.

"If this ability is used in learning, I will definitely become a first-class student. ”

Du Mu smiled, got up and left the apartment.

The night was getting deeper outside, Du Mu found a remote place to change out of his uniform, and after condensing the mask on his face with a gray dream, he came to the underground hall of the bar.

The day after the end of the base's conscription mission, the 500 merit points of the mission reward will be credited, and his total merit now is 522, which looks like a lot, but it is still a long way from the 5000 points required to promote the members of the Sun Yao level.

"The reward for Tuyao-level combat tasks is usually between 120~150, and to accumulate 5,000 merits, at least 30 tasks must be completed, and it will take at least half a year without slowing down the speed of strength improvement!"

Du Mu's thoughts flew in his mind, and he quickly calculated the time it would take to be promoted.

"There's a long way to go......"

"Mr. Nightmare!"

As soon as he stepped into the underground hall, Red Phosphorus noticed his arrival and waved his hand.

Coming to the bar and sitting down, Du Mu looked around and said in surprise: "Isn't the recruitment mission over? Why is it still so deserted here?"

Hong Phosphorus was stunned for a moment, and said with a wry smile: "The end is over, but that mission is said to have sacrificed many members, and I don't know about other branches, but there are 18 members dead here in the capital, including two members of the Sun Yao level!"

Du Mu was silent for a while when he heard this.

The gains of the annual rings in the base were unexpected, but because of this, the armed forces in the base also greatly exceeded their expectations.

Not to mention anything else, the mass-produced faceless one alone is a lot of force.

Du Mu remembered that the man surnamed Zhao said that there were thousands of faceless people in the base, and less than three hundred were killed by him, and it was self-evident who the rest was used for.

In the face of unexpected resistance, it is understandable that the annual rings have suffered heavy losses.

And since the capital stronghold is one of the closest strongholds to Dunshan City, there are many members involved in the mission, and the degree of casualties is naturally among the highest.

"The upper echelons are already planning to recruit new members, and it is estimated that it will not be long before new people will be added. Red Phosphorus pressed his finger to his chin, "By the way, is Mr. Nightmare coming to pick up a mission today?"

"Hmm. Du Mu nodded.

Seeing this, Red Phosphorus immediately took out the task list and handed it over.

Du Mu took the document and flipped through it carefully, he had to go to Haoguang City anyway, so he planned to take a task from Haoguang City or nearby cities and complete it along the way.

And considering that you are still busy with the martial arts examination and meeting the deceased, it is best that the duration of the mission should not be too long.

Compared with the Mu Yao level and the Jin Yao level, the number of tasks of the earth Yao level is more than a step less, but the difficulty has increased several times, and the common tasks of suppressing the stronghold or killing a strong person, the strength level of the target is at least seven stars, and there is even no lack of eight stars, which makes Du Mu secretly speechless.

After a while, he finally made a decision, pointed to the selected task, and looked up at Red Phosphorus.

"That's it, from Dongbao City!"
