Chapter 43: The Black Rose

Today's weather is a bit overcast and it looks like a heavy rain is on the horizon.

In the early hours of the morning, just after dawn, a sealed truck drove to the Black Blood compound and picked up all the team members.

The team members put on the unified combat uniforms of Team X, put on backpacks, pistols, and more than 100 rounds of ammunition. Plus military daggers, military steel helmets, ropes, shovels, and flares.

Everyone received a card with the rules of this assessment written on it.

"During the one-week trial, the team member who kills the most spiritual creatures will get the first place, and the first place will have a special reward." Ye Kong chewed on this sentence carefully.

"If you encounter danger and launch a signal flare, the chief examiner Long Tonghui will send guards to answer it, and it will be regarded as a failure in the assessment."

The rules are simple and there are no very clear restrictions.

Just survive and kill more spiritual creatures.

Hong Jiu and the others didn't come over, they didn't even give a lecture before the assessment, and everything was low-key and secretive.

Ye Kong estimated that this was done to prevent alarming Ron and adding difficulty to the assessment.

The truck was bumpy all the way, there was no light in the closed compartment, it was very dim, the expressions of the team members were different, no one spoke, and the atmosphere was dull and terrible.

Everyone knows that he may not be able to survive this assessment.

"What the hell is the Black Blood Forest like?" The little fat man asked suddenly.

The Black Blood Vault is blessed with a unique geographical environment, with a summer solstice river that isolates all dangers outside the vault, and most people have never even left the vault in their entire lives.

"Death." Wuhuan in the corner suddenly replied, "The Black Blood Forest, also known as the Black Blood Grave, is full of death. ”

Wu Huan's voice was cold, and after everyone listened, their breath was stagnant.

"How can it be so terrifying, hunters outside the market town can hit their prey with ordinary bows and arrows." Wei Bihui interjected.

"Yes, I often see people carrying sparrows, pheasants and even sometimes being able to carry a large deer, which is certainly not that dangerous." The little fat man echoed.

"We just stay on the outskirts of the forest, there are spiritual creatures on the periphery, and there are many hunters, we can ask for their help." Xiao Zhengdao suggested.

Wu Huan looked at him with a foolish look, and sneered: "Most of the Orions are homeless people from the market town, and they can't get along, let me remind you, they are more dangerous than spiritual creatures." ”

If there are still some rules in the market town, then in the Black Blood Forest, there are no rules.

Burning, killing and looting are not uncommon at all.

The atmosphere became dull again because of the words of no joy.

The truck was getting bumpy, and it should be getting farther and farther away from the shelter.

Ye Kong did not participate in other people's discussions, but kept closing his eyes and adjusting his mental state to the best.

Every time he went to the grave, his heart would become surprisingly calm, analyzing all kinds of possibilities.

"The Star Spirit Grass is in the abyss, almost to the depths of the Black Blood Forest, and the ceremony of my promotion is to jump off a cliff, is it a coincidence?"

"I couldn't have anyone around when I was promoted, so I had to find an excuse to be separated from the players."

Ye Kong was planning in his mind, and after about another hour, the truck suddenly stopped.

The door of the carriage was opened by the guards, and the light shone in.

What caught my eye was a cratered area of rocks, full of brown stones as tall as a person, and the ground was covered with withered yellow grass, and it was desolate.

"Get out of the car." The guard said emotionlessly.

The team members put on their backpacks and got out of the car one by one.

On the other side of the area, there are high mountains with ups and downs, and there are towering ancient trees in it.

"That's the Black Blood Forest?"

The ancient trees in the whole mountainous area are very tall, and the bottom is covered with a thick layer of dead branches and leaves, which are so dense that in some places the sun cannot penetrate, and it is as dim as the evening dusk.

"You already know the rules, and hopefully in a week, I'll be able to see all of you here." Commander Xu came over at this time, he took off his military hat, showed his gray hair, and looked at everyone with a smile.

"The assessment is very dangerous, but it is a compulsory course for Team X, and you will encounter more dangerous things in the future, so put yourself in a correct position and treat this assessment as a holiday trip." Commander Xu quipped.

"Check again if you're carrying flares, and let's go." Commander Xu continued, then turned to look at the endless primeval forest.

There was a look of nostalgia in his eyes, a long time ago, when he was an ordinary guard, he had gone deep into the Black Blood Forest many times to carry out missions, and he had made many achievements.

Wuhuan was still in the posture of a lone ranger, with a backpack on his back, as if he couldn't wait, and walked towards the entrance of the forest step by step.

The other team members looked at his back, hesitated for a while, and did not follow him, but looked at Ye Kong.

They want to follow Ye Kong together, after all, there is no rule that they can't form a team.

"By the way, Ye Kong, you come with me." Commander Xu smiled and beckoned.

He took Ye Kong to the passenger seat of the truck, took out a beautiful wooden box from the passenger seat, and the old man carefully opened the wooden box, which contained a beautiful pistol and ten silver bullets next to it.

"This black rose, I gave it to you in advance." Commander Xu smiled kindly and handed the gun to Ye Kong.

"This ...... Uncle Xu, you can't help it, such a valuable thing. Ye Kong hurriedly excused himself.

But he took the gun with both hands as if he were out of his control.

"I can't help it, I can't make it ......," Ye Kong said as he rubbed the black rose.

Love.

Commander Xu laughed and gave the silver bullet to Ye Kong.

"This is a demon hunting bullet, it's very rare, you must not use it to hit birds. It has a spirit pattern engraved by a 'craftsman' on its body, and these spirit patterns have a strong killing effect on the cultivator. ”

Demon Hunting Bullets? Ye Kong's eyes lit up, with this black rose, coupled with such a powerful demon hunting bullet, even if he met an ordinary spirit cultivator, he was not scared at all.

"Come back alive." Commander Xu solemnly entrusted.

"Well, thank you, Uncle Xu." Ye Kong looked at the gray-haired old man in front of him seriously, in the world where the wasteland generally did not live to sixty, Commander Xu estimated that it would not be long left.

Thank you. Ye Kong finally said in his heart.

"I've been dealing with Hong Jiu for so many years, I know her temperament, if you can really perform better than her back then, you have a chance." Commander Xu gave Ye the air a look that you know.

"Yes." Ye Kong suppressed the mixed thoughts in his heart, nodded heavily at Commander Xu, and then turned around in a dashing manner, and slowly walked towards the Black Blood Forest with the remaining eight team members.

The sky was getting darker and gloomy, and dark clouds pressed down, casting a thick shadow of death over the Black Blood Forest.
