Chapter 12: Three Battlefields
In the beginner battlefield, Qianlan was in the middle of a forest, the forest was not large, but the vegetation around him covered the sky and the sun. Beside her lay two junior burners in the shape of dark brown lions, both of whom had been shot in the head, their bodies gradually charred. The silence in the forest was abnormal, but Qianlan could clearly sense that there were four junior burners lurking in the nearby bushes, three G-class and one E-class. She didn't hide or dodge, but stood in the most conspicuous clearing, obviously trying to attract the rest of the Burners out.
However, with the lesson of being killed by two of his companions as soon as he appeared on the scene just now, Rao is junior Burning Clan has a low IQ, and he does not dare to act rashly, but lurks in the cover of the jungle, waiting for the opportunity. Qian Lan closed her eyes, sensing the breath of the burning clan around her, and suddenly heard a soft sound in the grass behind her, the gun in her hand was raised reflexively, the bullet shot out rapidly, and another G-class burning clan fell down in response. After killing the Burner, Shallow Lan did not stop attacking, raised the shotgun in her hand and fired two more shots at the top of the head, and the two Burners who were about to take advantage of her attention also fell. A terrible black shadow rushed from the nearby grass, and Asashi opened her eyes, her body spun in place, dodging the violent blow of the most powerful E-class Burning Clan, and retreated backwards, avoiding the attack of the tail that the Burning Clan threw back halfway. The shotgun in his hand fired at once, and the E-class Burning Clan slowly turned into a coke before it could land.
"It seems that the degree of restoration of this virtual battlefield is quite high." As she looked at the red dots of light rising from the corpses of the Burners, the surrounding jungle faded like a tide, revealing the real space, and she found herself standing in a slightly empty room with a flashing screen floating in front of her.
"Qianlan, score 100 points this time." A friendly but slightly mechanical female voice rang out, and the corresponding text appeared on the screen. The door to the other end of the room opened.
"Judging from this difficulty, there should be elite burners on the high-level battlefield, right?" Asan Lan put the gun in the holster, and as she walked, she thought, "It's easier than you think, Death." ”
Xia Yan passed through the mist-like door, and in front of him was a vast ice field, and the rock-solid ice layer was constantly churning with cold air, which reminded Xia Yan of the glacial battle a few years ago. But there were no fierce battles, and no mountains of bones piled up. In fact, on this endless glacier, except for himself dressed in black, only a white and calm ice remained. Xia Yan knew in his heart that in this kind of place, the calmer it was, the more great danger it hid.
Xia Yan took out the green demon hanging on his waist, and just as he made the seemingly loose action of holding the knife, a sharp explosion sounded less than ten meters away from him, and the huge glacier was shaken, and a vague blue shadow flew out from the explosion, carrying broken ice and cold murderous aura, and quickly attacked Xia Yan.
Xia Yan did not dodge this sudden attack, but waved his arm, drawing a cyan sword light, and the sword light collided with the blue shadow that attacked, making a loud noise, setting off a wave of snowflakes and qi in the sky. The powerful air currents blew Xia Yan's clothes and hair flying, but his eyes were always coldly looking at the python-shaped python that was shocked back by him, and his body was as transparent and hard as blue crystal. The Burning Clan's hollow eyes were lit with two flames of Youlan, and they were staring at Xia Yan's location at this moment. It had five coral-like horns forked on its head, two of which had been cut off by Xia Yan in the attack just now.
The strength of the elite Burning Clan seems to be not far from the one encountered in the Bone Burial Plain before. Xia Yan stood in place and looked at the Burning Clan who was hunched up and ready to launch a second attack, and was concentrating on guard, but the ice under his feet shook. It turned out that the blow just now was powerful, and the ice layer several feet thick actually tore a few cracks at this time. Seeing that the ice under his feet was about to be pulled into the bottom by the crack, Xia Yan's body swayed slightly, and with the help of the last landing ice floe, he jumped towards the burning clan. The elite Burning Clan over there also crashed into Xia Yan in mid-air again like an arrow from a string.
"Bang bang bang!" A series of loud noises echoed above the glacier, and several fierce attacks of the Burning Clan were blocked by Xia Yan one by one, and even the remaining coral horns on its head were cut off, which made it furious. After being cut off by Xia Yan's last sharp horn, the elite Burning Clan hurriedly turned his head and slid backwards beyond Xia Yan's attack range, and his body began to exude a cold blue flame, as if he was brewing the final blow.
Xia Yan landed steadily from mid-air onto an unsunken ice floe, looking at the elite Burning Clan in the distance whose body had skyrocketed several times because of the blue flame. Without hesitation, he rushed towards the strange-looking and sinister Burner.
The elite Burner raised his scarred head and faced Xia Yan as he rushed over, his hammer-like tail raised high and slammed into the ice. Like a high-voltage power line inserted into the water, a powerful energy spread rapidly. Sensing the abnormality under his feet, Xia Yan jumped into the air in time, dodging a large cone-shaped ice wave that suddenly pierced from under his feet. These waves of ice easily pierced through the thick ice and continued to emerge from the place where Xia Di had settled. If you are stabbed by one of them, you will definitely die on the spot. Xia Yan's figure flickered, avoiding the attacks of the ice waves under his feet, but the speed of his progress did not slow down at all, and in the blink of an eye, he had already rushed to the front of the elite Burning Clan, and when the last ice pick with cold light stabbed him, he flew into the air and slashed the green demon in his hand towards the elite Burning Clan.
The elite Burning Clan was already at the end of its powerful crossbow, but it was unwilling to sit still, the fierce light in its eyes flickered, opened its bloody mouth full of poisonous fangs, raised its head and bit at Xia Yan hard.
After a loud sound of blade exchange, a huge wave of water and ice dust rose into the sky, and a bright red point of light floated out of the mist, hovering over the glacier for a few times, and finally slowly dissipated.
"It's very coherent." Mr. Bai stared at the screen of Xia Yan falling from the sky and splitting the violent elite Burning Clan in half, and said with interest. He was sitting in a dimly lit room, holding the black cat named "Romeo" in his arms, and dozens of surveillance screens were neatly suspended in front of him, showing the real-time footage of the cadets of the various virtual battlefields.
"The Blue Ice Python is also one of the more difficult among the E-level elite Burning Clan, but it didn't hurt him in the slightest, it seems that the strength of this year's new students is good." A charming woman beside her, dressed in a dark red robe, had her hair coiled in a round bun at the back of her head, and was covered with ornate hairpins. Although she wears heavy makeup, it doesn't make people feel tacky, but more amazing.
"You can see clearly, Gu Yu, that's Weiyang's younger brother." A man standing in the back row, wrapped in a wide dark green robe, with deep-set eyes and a thin yellow muscle, glanced at the beautiful woman called "Gu Yu" and said.
"Oh?" Hearing this, several other teachers present glanced at Xia Yan's screen with some curiosity.
"Could it be that that is Weiyang's 'green demon'?" A slightly balding old man stared at the screen with wide eyes, his left eye and ear were reinstalled, and he looked a little glazed. The old man's name was Nakamura, and he was also a member of the first Ruri and Cat Guild, so he was naturally impressed by the long knife that shimmered blue.
"Ah, no wonder it looks familiar, this little guy is really handsome when he grows up." Gu Yu also looked at the screen and smiled.
"Look closely, there is indeed a bit of Weiyang's demeanor." Nakamura froze and said in a low voice.
"It's just an E-class elite Burning Clan, Xia Weiyang doesn't need to take so long." Mr. Bai shook his head and said, scratching Romeo's ear with one hand, as if thoughtful, "How is the situation with the old students?" He suddenly asked the green-robed teacher behind him.
"It's still the same, a few more went into the 'furnace' a few days ago. However, there are first and second places out there, and now they are not so competitive. The green-robed teacher replied.
Mr. Bai nodded, still looking at the screens of several high-level battlefields and said, "We must speed up the training process of the new trainees and let them train with the old trainees as soon as possible." ”
"Didn't the original plan get them together again during the first round of assessments?" Nakamura asked in surprise.
"The original plan remains the same, but the time for the first round of assessment is accelerated." Mr. Bai said unhurriedly.
"And when are you going to start the assessment?" Gu Yu blinked and asked.
"Wait until they're completely used to it, or rather, weed out all the people who don't fit." Mr. Bai replied with a smile.
Standing on the far right was a gray-haired, graceful and elegant fat woman, the wife of Professor Green, who proposed the 'Survivor Theory', and the deputy director of the "Burning Tribes Research Institute", where she taught a theoretical lecture on the Burning Tribes. Although she has a high status among teachers, because she does not have combat effectiveness, she naturally does not have as much say as several other experienced teachers in terms of the training plan and combat effectiveness of the students. However, she has always refused to give in to others, so she pretended to be interested in a screen nearby: "I think these new students are much cuter than the old ones, and it seems that the mid-level battlefield here is also very lively." ”
The screen that Mrs. Green was referring to showed a boy dressed in plain cloth with a little freckles on his face using a scimitar to barely defeat five G-class junior burners and two S-class junior burners. However, among the several teachers present, only Mr. Bai glanced at the screen and Mrs. Green, and a playful smile appeared on his face.
"There's a terrible guy here, too." A man wearing highly myopic glasses and a gentlemanly look like a teacher suddenly shouted. He had been silently looking at the screen on the other side, as his hand pointed to a frame on the side.
"You're a teacher, too, Yuhiko. What do students think of you with all the fuss? Mrs. Green, seeing that the topic she had just provoked had been interrupted, yelled at the teacher with an unhappy expression.
"I'm sorry, Mrs. Green." Yuhiko scratched his head embarrassedly and smiled, still pointing to the screen, "But this student is really surprising." ”
