It is not that no one in the history of the empire has chosen a demon pattern master and a fellow practitioner of the crystal guard, but most of those who do so do so do not have more gains than they lose, and in the end they have achieved nothing. Only a few people have made extraordinary achievements in these two fields, and these few people are all famous in history.

To sum up, whether it is the Demon Pattern or the Crystal Guard, the road ahead is thorny and difficult, and ordinary people need to spend an incomparably amazing amount of energy in one field alone, let alone the two initiates together?

But now there is a shortcut presented in front of Gu Chen's eyes, on the one hand, because of the inheritance of the human swordsmanship, he can look at the meridians inwardly, and it is not that others can only feel the flow of dust power but cannot see it intuitively, on the other hand, the prohibition set by Li Yitang provides him with the best way to exercise dust power, and the huge advantages established by these two aspects, the more the effect will only be obvious in the back.

Gu Chen rested for a while, then stepped on the door again, facing the strong torrent, slowly advancing step by step.

This time, he still only made it to the ninth step, and was knocked out of the door again.

Ten minutes later, he got up again, went up the twenty-first level again, and then stopped at the ninth step.

The surging air rushed into his pores, and the wild impact seemed to shatter even his bones! Gu Chen sank, his eyes flashed with determination, gritting his teeth and fighting against the forbidden force!

Soon after, he flew out again, and the sharp pain that made him bared his teeth as he got up.

Even though the dust force can be restored, the physical body itself has a limit, and it is finally unable to withstand such strength.

Gu Chen's chest rose and fell, resting longer than the previous times, and then resolutely went up to the twenty-first level.

He...... I don't want to give up like this, this kind of difficulty has not yet reached the point where it is worth giving up!

He was slammed to the ground again and again, got up again and again, and re-attacked again and again.

His arms began to swell and red, blood spilled from the corners of his lips, his muscles began to ache and numb, and his heart was beating harder than ever.

He turned a blind eye.

The dust force is growing bit by bit, countless failures have countless gains, and finally, he took the tenth step.

The intensity of the roaring torrent soared suddenly, and the violent air currents pressed Gu Chen's face into deformation and hideousness, Gu Chen's stubbornness became even stronger, and his eyes condensed as if he wanted to kill.

He heard the cry of his soul!

That's his thirst for power, for power!

He stood still, on the tenth step, and held it for a few seconds!

His body flipped and flew out, smashing into the bluestone floor like a dead dog!

But he clearly heard the happy laughter in his heart.

He finally ...... Breakthrough to the tenth step!

It's just that this time the injury was very serious, and Gu Chen even felt that his entire skeleton was separated, and it would fall apart if he moved. He rested for a long time this time before he could barely recover his strength, and as soon as he turned over, he saw a bright face close at hand.

"Senior sister?"

Li Qiyu still wears white today, a white shirt and white jeans, and a thick and long white scarf. Every time he saw Li Qiyu, Gu Chen felt thrilled by her aggressive beauty.

"Diligence is not a bad thing, but it can be done in moderation." Li Qiyu smiled: "Let's stop here today, I'll look for Xu Bing later." ”

"Hmm...... By the way, senior sister, the No. 17 stock solution is gone. ”

Li Qiyu stood up: "I know, then tomorrow you and Quiro will go to get the materials without a name, and they will look for you then." ”

Take the material?

Gu Chen was puzzled, thinking that No. 17 stock solution was sold in the commercial area of Donghu Courtyard, why did he go to pick up the materials?

He wanted to ask, but Li Qiyu had already strode away, leaving only the faint smell of tobacco for him.

However, when Quiro and Nameless took him out of the tower the next day, Gu Chen suddenly understood what Li Qiyu meant.

He sat in the car, watched the car rush out of the courtyard gate of Winter Lake Courtyard at a wild speed, and finally couldn't help but ask, "Queiro, ...... Where is this going? ”

"Beyond the cordon, the wilderness."

Gu Chen was taken aback: "Where to do what?" ”

Outside the Imperial cordon, there are vampires and alien beasts, where every step is dangerous, and it can be attacked at any time, and it is absolutely forbidden to enter without the approval of the military department.

"Isn't there no stock solution No. 17? It just so happened that Xu Bing also needed a new specimen to make a real yàn, so he asked you to go with him. ”

"No. 17 stock solution, isn't it sold in the commercial street?"

"Heh, we don't have any money, and if we can't fight with that group of waste, we will make a secret move, as long as it is our Luofu Pagoda people, the price will be at least ten times higher."

You guys...... How much hatred is pulled?

Gu Chen smiled bitterly, and then remembered a very strict question: "So, do we have income?" ”

"There used to be, but not anymore." Quiro smiled heartily: "In the past, after Qin Jiaren challenged Miss, she would compensate a large amount of money to repair the damage in the tower, but since she was leaving, there would be no more in the future." ”

This question is very strict, Gu Chen didn't understand why Quiro could still be so indifferent, frowned and said, "Then our ...... from now on"

"Don't worry, little ghost, the wilderness can be satisfied!" Quero laughed, "Our food, our medical supplies, our entertainment, you name it all in the wilderness!" ”

"Oh yes," he suddenly remembered something, took out a piece of paper from his body and handed it to Gu Chen: "This is the list given to you by the Zhujiu clan, and he will teach you how to prepare the No. 17 stock solution when you go back." ”

"Wait!" Gu Chen's face changed slightly, and he swallowed his saliva: "You mean...... Let me do this alone? ”

Queiro was surprised and said, "Otherwise? I'm going to help the fat aunt hunt for ingredients, Nameless wants to help Xu Bing catch a vampire, Li Men's sect training, get and lose, you have to pay what you want to get, have you forgotten? ”

"But I didn't even bring combat gear!"

"Oh, Mademoiselle got you ready, right in the trunk."

"......, should I say thank you?"

Gu Chen took a deep breath, he didn't expect that Li Men would be so poor that he would need to take such a big risk even for something like General Stock Solution, which could be bought in the last store. It's not a joke outside the cordon, if he hadn't respected his second sister-in-law Ding Keqing too much, he would never have risked going to such a dangerous place to catch a snow fox.

But now it's too late to complain and reason, and instead of dwelling on who was right and who was wrong in the past, it's better to prepare for what to do in the future.

He pored over the list and began to make a plan for his own operation on the fly, hoping to complete it as well as possible before reaching the Savage Lands.

There are two problems with the list, one is that some plants Gu Chen has never heard of, although Zhu Jiusi has drawn a pattern, but I am afraid it will take a lot of time, and the second problem is relatively large...... The list clearly states that an alienated red rat needs to be hunted, and the original solution requires its eyes and fifty milliliters of blood.

"Quero, how far are we from the cordon?"

"About three kilometers, you'll get off there, and Nameless and I will move on."

Gu Chen bowed slightly, the alienated red rats generally do not move near the cordon, and they will only be found in the area three kilometers away. Gu Chen had never gone so deep into the wilderness, and he had no bottom in his heart about the environment in it.

"Can you stop the car, I want to count the weapons."

Queiro stopped the car, looked at Gu Chen approvingly and said, "Yes, a little brain." ”

Gu Chen didn't answer, opened the trunk and began to check the equipment—an old era long sniper rifle, two Type 941 analytical pistols, four magazines, eighty rounds of ammunition, and a military shovel.

"When are we going back?"

"Before dark, darkness is a paradise for these beasts in the wilderness."

Gu Chen returned to the car, closed his eyes and adjusted his body to get into the best condition when he arrived. Half an hour later, he was woken up by Queiro and watched them go.

The wild wind is even more bitter than that of the northland, but the warblers and grass grow around, and they are open and swaying towards the sun, and they are full of life.

If it weren't for the vampires and exotic beasts, it would have been the most beautiful scenery here.

Gu Chen began to walk, he didn't walk fast, while searching around, he silently analyzed the terrain here, and paid great attention to whether the surrounding plants had spikes and saws or the like, so as not to be cut.

Of course, he was not afraid of such a small injury, but according to the records, there were very few vampires here, and the vampires' desire for the taste of human blood allowed them to smell human blood lightly.

His luck was good, and he soon found his target, a mutant type 1 mimosa.

This mimosa isn't on his list, but it's one of the red rat's favorite foods. Gu Chen cautiously stretched out his hand and slowly approached the mutated type 1 mimosa, and just as he was about to touch the mimosa, the mimosa leaf suddenly opened, and countless tiny barbs grew inside, like a small beast, biting towards Gu Chen's fingers!

Gu Chen had already prepared, and quickly withdrew his hand, and at the same time, the pistol in his right hand was analyzed into a sharp dagger, and the mimosa was cut off cleanly with a brush on the ground!

It worked!

Gu Chen breathed a sigh of relief, this mimosa is very hard when it doesn't open its leaves, and the general dagger can't cut it at all, and only when it hunts is it is when it is the most vulnerable.

He grabbed the chopped mimosa with one hand, and large streams of juice flowed down as he began to run.

Following the route he had memorized, he put the mimosa in the bottle, then took off his gloves and discarded them, changed them to a new pair, and left.

He lay down in a dense flower, set up a sniper rifle, and waited patiently.

So far, the plan has gone smoothly, and Red Rat doesn't show up before he sets the trap. However, the difficulties have only just begun.

Gu Chen could feel that in various parts of his body, some fine grass had climbed up and was growing slowly on his body. The mutated creepers eventually turned into resilient ropes that strangled him to death.

But he's gambling that the mimosa will be able to lure the alienated red rat before he gets strangled by the creeper, and then use a sniper rifle to severely injure it or even kill it.

From the very beginning of seeing the list, Gu Chen decided to take the initiative to deal with the red rat first, it was the most threatening, Gu Chen didn't want to be suddenly attacked and fall into passivity while he was collecting plant materials.

Time passed minute by minute, and just when Gu Chen was almost suffocated by the creeper, he saw a figure sneakily approaching the mimosa, greedily sucking the juice of the mimosa in the bottle.

Gu Chen's spirit perked up, and the scope of the sniper rifle immediately locked onto the figure.

It's an alienated red rat!
