CHAPTER XLVI

After dinner, Liuli and the others began to study the map in their hands. Liuli looked at it over and over for a while, and always felt that something was wrong. After a while, it dawned on her. Liuli pulled up the map of Cloud Island from her personal terminal, and then compared it with the map in her hand. Well, it's a pit game. The map given is correct, but the scale is reduced. In other words, it takes a day to reach a destination that can be reached by walking for half a day according to the map.

Liuli threw the mission map to Li Jun and asked him to correct the mission map against the real map. Li Jun is quite talented in drawing topographic maps, not to mention that there are now correct map comparisons. In less than ten minutes, he had the mission map corrected.

Everyone gathered together to study, and Ruri looked at the mission map. They were supposed to land on the south shore of Cloud Island. According to the map, they will need to cross most of the island to complete all the missions. The final destination is in the poplar forest in the center of the island.

This time, the route spans a long time, and there are a total of twenty tasks, and they are asked to complete the tasks. It is necessary to complete the task and be in a hurry. In particular, they have three mission points on this line that overlap with the tasks of others. They are the third, fifth, and tenth mission points on this route. Liuli calculated the distance and said, "The third mission point is actually not far from the starting point. The instructor did not say that the tasks must be completed in the order of the task points. To avoid overlapping tasks being preempted. After disembarking from the ship, we first headed straight for the third mission point. After you have done this, return to the first and second mission points to complete the task. The second mission point is triangular with the fourth and fifth mission points. I estimated that we could accomplish eight tasks in one day. The order of completion is 3-1-2-5-4-6-8-7. This time the route was long, and we almost had to march in a hurry. Therefore, everyone should allocate physical energy reasonably. Note that the environment around mission point 5 is very suitable for the Silver Pit Viper. If all goes well, we'll be there around noon. Please be safe when entering the forest. Although you have to be in a hurry, if you are careless and get injured, it will delay time. It's not too early now, so let's take a break. It starts tomorrow, but it's an uphill battle. ”

Early the next morning, the members of the participating team of the Capital Star Scout Academy washed up and started to eat breakfast. Fortunately, a few people still knew that they couldn't pull hatred, and they all ate breakfast in the room.

At ten o'clock at seven, the outside notice was that there were still five minutes to land, and Liuli took a group of people to Class A. The ten people stood in battle formation, and Liuli sat on the back chair on Jiang Hongjie's back. For the eyes that were on her back, Liuli chose to ignore it. Shao Yan's voice on the radio came from the deck: "There are still two minutes to get close to the south shore of Cloud Island, and the team that chose to go ashore here went ashore on their own." We will circle Yunwu Island and stop at its shores in four directions: east, west, north and south. Each landing lasts only five minutes, so please choose the direction you want to land in according to your map. Then I wish you all good luck! ”

Liuli and they had already discussed it last night, and it happened that they needed to land on the south bank. Liuli looked around, and there were more than a dozen teams that chose to land in this direction. Everyone's mental state was different, and some teams seemed particularly sluggish, apparently as a result of not sleeping well last night and not eating.

The response from the Capital Star Scout Academy was swift. A group of people took advantage of themselves and firmly occupied the position of the landing port. As soon as the boat docked, before it could stop, the participating team of the Capital Star Scout Academy jumped down. This act caused an uproar in the rear. The physical abilities standing on both sides were not at this height, and the aliens in the middle also jumped to the ground without danger with their help.

As soon as he landed, the spiritual power that Liuli had already released probed the direction: "All attention, all the directions at eleven o'clock are moving forward at full speed." Before entering the forest, take the herbs to prevent miasma and take your weapon. ”

The team immediately adjusted its direction according to the order. When entering the forest, a group of people took out the anti-miasma pill from the space button and swallowed it in one go. With a miniature laser gun in his hand and a dagger in his hand, a group of people rushed into the forest.

The forest is very wooded, and although there are no roads, the distance between the trees is relatively large. A huge canopy of trees obscured the sky above. The light could only shine through the gaps between the branches. Cloud Island is named after being surrounded by clouds and mist all year round. So visibility in the forest is low. In order not to let the sudden light attract the animals in the forest, Liuli chose to make a simple night vision device after understanding the characteristics of Cloud Island. Last night, after everyone fell asleep, she made ten pairs of simple night vision devices with the help that she was willing to give away when she bought things, as well as some seemingly useless small parts. Although it looks ugly, it looks like a pair of ugly rimmed glasses. Thank you to everyone for believing in her and not stopping her from buying these seemingly useless gadgets. Liuli took out the night vision device and distributed it to everyone. The group saw that Liuli had put on glasses, and they did not hesitate. When they put on their glasses, a group of people found that their vision became clear, and they all gave a thumbs up to Liuli. In order not to attract the attention of some wild beasts, from the beginning of entering the forest, everyone reduced the frequency of talking. Even the voice will be very quiet. With improvised night vision devices, they basically communicate with military hand gestures.

Liuli took out the locator, looked at it carefully for a while, and pointed in one direction and made a forward gesture. A group of people marched in that direction. Ruri sat on the back chair and didn't have to walk, but she wasn't idle. Always use mental power to probe everything within ten meters of the surrounding area. After walking for almost twenty minutes, Liuli suddenly made a stop gesture, and the team immediately stopped.

Just now, Liuli found that the land in front of him was very strange, and a small pit appeared from time to time. Liuli expanded the scope of the spiritual power exploration to twenty meters, and sure enough, more small pits were found. And the surrounding ground seems to be even softer. Thinking of the information they had gathered, there were gerbils on Cloud Island.

The gerbils here are not the gerbils of the earth. It's the size of a rabbit on Earth. Although it also eats tree roots for a living, its two teeth are so sharp that a centimeter of steel can be gnawed through. They are very territorial, and if a person or animal enters their territory, they will attack them in groups. The gerbil's territory is arched by them and sags easily.

Obviously, it was not a good decision for them to pass through gerbil territory. Liuli whispered: "The front is the territory of the gerbil, let's take a detour." ”

Fortunately, the gerbil's territory is not large, and they rub the edge of the territory past. During this period, they encountered a few lone gerbils, and several people slaughtered them and collected a pot of blood. The blood of gerbils is also a precious medicinal herb. They hadn't forgotten that they were going to give Old Man Bai medicinal herbs after the game.

However, their main purpose is still a task, and slaughtering gerbils is just a matter of convenience. The meat of the gerbils is good, and they throw the dried gerbils into the space for the ingredients.

Circumventing gerbil territory, they walked for only five minutes to reach Mission Point Three. I saw a robot standing there, and when he saw them coming, he said in a mechanical voice: "This level task is a theoretical mission. It's to test your intelligence gathering for this contest. I have 10 questions here, all about the Thousand Islands and Cloud Island. Please answer within thirty seconds. If the correct rate is more than eight questions, it will be considered as a clearance. Points can only be obtained after clearing the level, and each question has two points. Note that a squad can only be challenged once. If you fail, you will not have the opportunity to complete the task again. Which of you will answer the questions? ”

Ruri jumped down from the back chair and walked over to the robot. The robot's eyes began to flicker: "At the beginning of the answer, how many times is the gravity of the Thousand Island Star than the gravity of the Capital Star?" ”

"1.2 times."

"Where is the place where poisonous mosquitoes are abundant on Cloud Island?"

"Next to a swamp southeast of Cloud Island."

"One of the herbs that can repel bloodsucking ants is abundant next to the swamp?"

"Blue moss."

"What is gerbil food?"

"White willow roots."

"What herb can cure the venom of the silver pit viper?"

"Perilla grass and moonshine grass."

"A fruit of the Thousand Islands, known for its high water content and special aroma......"

"Passion fruit."

"It is the first time that Qiandao Star has held a comprehensive competition for the Federal Scout Academy. But what was the name of a tournament hosted five years ago? ”

"Federal Water Mecha Show Competition."

"The names of the four major human settlements on the Thousand Island Star?"

"Heron Island, Orange Island, Qingjiang Island, and Sunu Island."

"Where is perilla grass abundant in Cloud Island?"

"The edge of the aspen grove to the west."

"The Thousand Islands were once occupied by the Euro Empire, and who was the commander who commanded the final liberation campaign?"

"Li Yaoyang." Others may not know, but Liuli, who aims at Li Chaoyang, has thoroughly studied his life and deeds. This question is simply a send-off question for her.

The robot's eyes stopped flashing: "The answer is over, and it takes eighteen seconds for the Capital Star Scout Academy." Answer all 10 questions correctly and get 20 points. ”

After hearing its announcement, Liuli immediately sat back on Jiang Hongjie's back. She pointed in one direction and said, "Go to Mission Point 1." ”
