7 a.m. the next day in the 8th East Region of the Earth.

The four members of Test Team 0-1 stood neatly in the preparation room, waiting for the bastard to give the order.

"Good morning, everybody." Mixed Kun picked up the e-folder and began to announce the contents of the first mission: "Given your performance at the training ground yesterday, you must have some level of understanding of your Ark. Next, Lighthouse will send you to the vicinity of C-68 Island with your Ark to clean up Leviathan.

Due to the nature of the mission, which is combat training, each person is required to clean up at least 5 E-class Leviathans, with the exception of the codename RBS.

Do you guys have any questions for the rest? ”

After a moment of silence, Shangguan Jing walked out of the team: "Report!" ”

"Say."

Shangguan Jing asked, "I want to know the reason why the codename RBS participated in this actual combat training. ”

Chaokun replied, "That's right, although RBS is the strongest Ark in Asian Harbor, it doesn't need to participate in this actual combat training. But now that he's part of Test Team 0-1, RBS will be involved in every one of your missions in the future, unless there are special circumstances. ”

"Understood!" Shangguan Jing stood and returned to the line.

Then, the Chaos Kun then ordered, "All in place!" Get ready for a conscious connection! ”

"Yes!" The four responded in unison.

——

Ten minutes later, a large Towrope capsule rocket slowly landed on the ground-based platform of the C-68 Island ground laboratory in the center of the desert.

In the applause of many experimenters, the five Arks of the test team 0-1 broke away from the carrying compartment one after another and stood in front of their respective carrying compartments.

"Looks like we're very popular!" SQE said with a smug look at the experimenter who welcomed him.

"Well, we're safe for them." GWL added.

"When you say that, you feel quite stressed." BIA said with a smile.

"It's just that with 'that guy', I can't get excited." VLS said, clutching his deformed abdomen that had been stuck yesterday.

Then, their eyes flashed together at RBS, who was silent.

RBS completely ignored the stares of the four people, and calmly stepped off the parking platform and walked in front of the person in charge of the island to understand the specifics of the mission.

"Captain, he's robbed you of your job." SQE reminds BIA Tract.

GWL patted SQE's shoulder armor lightly: "Alright! You've seen it all, so you don't have to explain it. ”

BIA DIDN'T HEAR SQE AT ALL, BECAUSE THERE WAS ANOTHER SENTENCE RINGING IN HER HEAD RIGHT NOW.

"Sooner or later, you're going to hurt your teammates because of that."

Now, looking at the RBS that has been communicating back and forth with the person in charge of the island here, BIA feels that the needle condensed by this sentence has been pierced even deeper.

"Captain? Captain! VLS called out to the lost BIA.

BIA suddenly woke up: "Huh? What's wrong? ”

VLS replied: "It's time to go." ”

BIA looked at the RBS standing under the parking platform, sighed deeply, and announced, "Let's go!" ”

——

A few minutes later, five Arks, led by BIA, walked across the endless desert.

"Anyway, why do you want to arrange experimenters on Earth? Isn't that tantamount to going to Leviathan for trouble? SQE asked suddenly.

"Didn't you understand during the training?" VLS asked rhetorically.

"Get rid of, my goal is to become a hero known to everyone, what's the use of knowing this?" SQE responded as it should.

VLS scoffed, "Hey, why does the 'big hero' want to know at this point?" ”

"I, am I curious?" SQE retorted.

"Alright, you two don't target each other." GWL reconciled, and then answered: "The Harbor space station is a man-made space station after all, and resource consumption is inevitable. However, space does not have such abundant material resources, so it can only be replenished by exploiting the earth's resources. ”

"But you don't seem to see any tools in the island just now that can transport resources?" SQE then asked.

"I don't know about that." GWL replied helplessly.

Suddenly, the RBS leaped into the air and plunged his heavy sword into the sand on its way.

The remaining four froze in place.

RBS said as if explaining: "This guy is C-class, you can't beat it." ”

Immediately afterward, a giant python-shaped Leviathan, covered in thorns, rose from under the sand with RBS on top of it.

This series of actions completely scared the four people who had no actual combat experience.

Standing on Leviathan's head, RBS drew his heavy sword and slashed down again.

This Leviathan was easily split in half by this blow from RBS.

If it weren't for RBS's explanation in advance, or without knowing the strength of RBS, no one would have believed that this "weak" python was actually a C-class Leviathan.

In the eyes of RBS, it seems that this is the way it should be.

"Hey, don't you just like to be in the limelight!" SQE shouted.

RBS responded simply: "You can't beat this guy." ”

"Who do you look down upon? Can't any of the four of us beat a crawler? SQE's tone became a little more intense.

"You can't beat this guy." RBS continued.

"Don't be too arrogant!" SQE had completely forgotten the tragic situation when he was beaten by RBS yesterday, and in a fit of rage, he just wanted to punch the arrogant guy in front of him.

Fortunately, the calm GWL stopped him.

At this time, BIA, who was still silent, spoke: "Code name RBS, thank you very much for protecting us. But the purpose of this mission is to conduct actual combat training, and I still hope that you can let us solve these problems on our own. ”

"Shangguan!" GWL exclaimed.

BIA responded to GWL very calmly: "Don't worry, I know it." Also, when you are equipped with ARK, please match it with the code name, code GWL. ”

GWL couldn't refute it, just obeyed: "Yes, code name BIA." ”

"Oh? If you're serious, then ......" RBS pulled out a capsule full of dark red liquid from the compartment behind his waist and threw it at BIA without warning.

But this was easily blocked by the QCE who stepped forward with a quantum shield, and then, the capsule was easily shattered, and the dark red thick liquid was also sprinkled on the shield and sand.

"Thank you." BIA thanked her.

SQE nodded slightly.

"What is this?" GWL asked.

RBS replied, "This is highly concentrated blood, which is used to attract Leviathan. ”

"What!" VLS was frightened by this explanation.

"Originally, I was ordered to release him secretly if I couldn't find a suitable Leviathan, but since you've all said so, I'll be just as good as you." RBS explained with a smirk.

Soon, on the sand dunes not far away, rows of dense scorpion-shaped Leviathan, who was more than one person tall, emerged from under the sand, and without exception, moved quickly towards the area where he was.

There is also a group of lizard-shaped Leviathans that are as strong as trucks running from afar.

These monsters move extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, they are surrounded by them.

"Yes, it looks like it's all below D-class. It's also said, how could a stronger guy take a fancy to such fresh blood. RBS said grimly, "There seem to be hundreds of them, you're in luck." ”

The four of them leaned close together, all set up their weapons, and were fully prepared for battle.

Because of fear.

"Since you don't need me, then ......" RBS pulled out an orange-red sticky piece of soft tissue from the dead Leviathan's head with his left hand and smeared it on the heavy sword.

VLS stood his gun, witnessed RBS's move from the back of his eye, and asked, "What is he doing?" ”

"I guess the snake's brain tissue was smeared on the sword to create a kind of deterrent to the other Leviathans." GWL analyzed.

BIA pulled her bow and arrows to the brim and gave her first battle order as captain: "All men ready for battle!" Codenamed SQE, the Quantum Shield is fully unfurled, at least to surround us. ”

"Understood!" SQE turned up the output power of the Quantum Shield, forming a semicircular barrier around the four of them.

Immediately afterward, the BIA issued a second order: "Codename VLS, if Leviathan starts to attack, immediately suppress it with full firepower, and try not to let Leviathan get close to the barrier!" ”

"Understood." VLS, already prepared, responded.

But after these Leviathans were surrounded by the crowd, they did not want to attack again.

After Leviathan was at a stalemate for a long time, BIA asked a little nervously, "What's going on?" Why didn't they move? ”

"I don't know." GWL, which has always had to answer questions, doesn't know what the situation is this time.

At this moment, RBS, who was standing in place, explained, "Leviathans below the D-class are just some low-level creatures, and they don't actively attack inanimate objects.

But if it's now, and you can't be sure because of the smell of blood, I don't know when they're going to attack. ”

As he spoke, a not-so-loud gunshot rang out from the muzzle of the VLS.
