Chapter 56: Parting Ways
The day finally dawned, and the faint light squeezed into the cave through the cracks, bringing a glimmer of light to everyone, but it could not dispel the darkness in their hearts.
Lin Jing sobbed silently in the corner, and the other students were also in a heavy mood, especially Chu Yi. Chu Yi thought back to his past and found that it was always accompanied by fighting and death. Chu Yi also wanted to live comfortably and without troubles, and then the cruelty of reality always hit him hard. If you can't run away from it, try to make yourself stronger. Chu Yi secretly clenched his fists.
"Let's go!" The latest one to recover is still Liu Nan. The world will never change because of one person, and future people always need to move forward strongly.
The giant rat was pushed out of the cave, and Huo Liang's cave mouth made everyone a little uncomfortable, but there was also a sense of stepping out of the shadows and gaining rebirth. The Fu family and the others were buried in the depths of the cave, and in order to prevent other creatures from coming to destroy it, Chu Yi and the others simply buried the entire cave entrance with stones. The giant rat was also dragged to an open space three miles away from the cave, and everyone feared that the corpse of the giant rat would attract all kinds of creatures to come and feed.
The rat's front teeth, claw bones, and tail were collected. In addition to the strongest front teeth, the biggest surprise is the giant rat's tail. Like a thick steel whip, it has a powerful destructive power even if it is not processed. Everyone couldn't help but secretly rejoice, if it weren't for the giant rat being stuck in the hole and not being able to get in, the volley of the tail alone would have been enough to eat a pot. The tail was given to Lin Jing, and with her bundle demon net, she could carry out long-range strikes on trapped targets, Lin Jing was naturally quite surprised, and the sadness in her heart was also diluted a little.
With all the chores taken care of, it's finally time for the main event - the Void Hunter. No one has ever studied this creature in its entirety, and the Void Beast that appeared in the legend is already a charred wreckage, so it is not worth studying at all. And now, the complete void creature body is lying on Liu Nan's hands.
What a strange creature this is, the whole body is boneless, the whole body is transparent, and the whole body is like an oval ball of flesh. The meat ball is only nearly half a meter, but it drags a tail nearly 2 meters long. Okay, let's just sort of it as a tail, it's really because this tail is too tracky, and it feels as sticky and slippery as a loach, not at all as hard as everyone imagined, but it's obvious that this is the "weapon" of the Void Hunter's attack. The Fu family used their lives to tell others that this "weapon" could be so powerful that it could kill with one blow regardless of armor and physical strength.
"It's like a big tadpole!" Chu Yi sighed. Everyone looked at him with strange eyes, please, can such a murderous killer not be associated with a cute tadpole, it is very disobedient, Chu Yi really deserves to be a little monster.
"Hey, there's a kernel in this big head!" Chu Yi said again. It was obviously a body, but it was said to be a head, and everyone was speechless for a while. However, Chu Yi's words made everyone discover more. Indeed, there is a round nucleus in the body of the Void Hunter, which is also completely transparent, and if you don't look closely, you can't detect it at all.
"This should be its secret. Liu Nan put the body directly into his bag, and then said solemnly, "Next, I will carefully discuss the future arrangements with you." As you can see, the Void Hunter has already appeared in this dimensional cave, and I'm not sure if there are more of its kind, and the rest of the journey may be more dangerous, so if you want to go home, I'll take you back immediately. After Liu Nan finished speaking, he looked at the others, obviously waiting for everyone's decision.
The crowd was deep in thought. In all fairness, although I only stayed in the dimensional cave for a day and a night, I gained a lot. In particular, the value of the Void Hunter, if it is handed over to the Academy, it is not only a reward for points or cultivation resources, but may even change the way the entire Terran fights. If you can learn the concealment technique of the Void Hunter, combined with the technique of hiding the fluctuation of spiritual power, it is conceivable that the entire human race will win a huge technological change. From this point alone, everyone can go back.
"I think I'd better go back, and I'll only be a burden to everyone for the rest of the journey. Cai Wei said in a low voice. Cai Wei was almost killed in yesterday's battle, and finally cheered up and continued to explore, but he didn't expect the two teammates to leave one after another overnight, and he had no fighting spirit for a while, so he was hesitating to return first, but he didn't want Liu Nan to mention it first.
"I want to go back too. Another person who agrees is Lin Jing. Lin Jing was not a brave person, she finally cultivated her physical skills, and she couldn't change her weak personality, she had never experienced life and death, and she was afraid of moving forward at this time. After that, Wang Yifei and Wen Xing also hesitated, and finally said that they would return.
At the end of the day, it's just teenagers. Liu Nan looked at the person in front of him, a little disappointed, and just wanted to speak. But I heard Chu Yi suddenly say: "I want to continue!"
!! everyone's eyes were once again focused on Chu Yi. Liu Nan's eyes lit up and asked, "Reason?"
"Become stronger!" Chu Yi stared straight at Liu Nan and said affirmatively, "I want to be stronger!" At this moment, Chu Yi burst out with the belief of moving forward.
"Very good, let's go back!" Liu Nan laughed, at this moment she felt extremely satisfied, and the trip was finally worth it.
"Teacher Liu, I want to continue!" Chu Yi said urgently. If the minority obeys the majority here, Chu Yi will definitely not be reconciled.
"I know!" Liu Nan continued to smile, "How about I send them back first, and then deliver the Void Hunter to the Academy, and then I and you continue to practice?"
As he spoke, Liu Nan turned to the other 4 people: "According to the regulations, quitting halfway, counting as a failure in the task, your academy points need to be halved." ”
When Liu Nan said this, everyone had no opinion. For others, they have lost their sharpness at this time, and instead of forcibly continuing, it is better to go back to school and digest it. At the same time, the materials obtained can also be used, as for the loss of half of the points, you don't have to care, after all, with the Void Hunter in hand, the big killer, the academy will not let everyone suffer.
6 people said to move, and returned directly to the same way. It took a day to come, and I went back to get familiar with the road, and I arrived at the colorful passage in half a day. The six people jumped out of the passage, and after the familiar feeling of dizziness, they had returned to the Flood Continent.
Originally, it was estimated that the exploration time would be 7 days, and according to custom, all parties would send people to meet them a few days before the end of the exploration time, so as to ensure the safety of their own personnel and prevent conflicts between the interests of all parties. However, at this time, it was only the second day before the exploration began, and the person who received the Apocalypse Academy was naturally not in place yet. So, Liu Nan took great pains to send a few people back to the Apocalypse Academy.
Qin Wen was taken aback when he saw a few people returning, but after knowing the cause and effect, he immediately paid attention to it and hurriedly convened all the high-level members of the academy. Liu Nan and Chu Yi naturally had to wait, but fortunately, once they came and went, the dimensional cave would also enter the night, and it was undoubtedly a wiser choice to wait until the third day to explore. The corpse of the Void Hunter had been delivered, and Liu Nan was relieved, and at this time, he dragged Chu Yi to the best restaurant in the Qiyun tribe and had a big meal.
After eating, the meeting was not over, Liu Nan and Chu Yi were bored, so they could only sit and cultivate. It wasn't until the evening that Qin Wen dragged his tired face to find the two, for a strong man like Qin Wen, a battle was easier than arguing with people.
"You have done a good job, tomorrow you will still go to the dimensional cave to explore, this matter will be kept secret for the time being, and your rewards will also be settled in the next few days. Qin Wen boasted.
"Vice Dean Qin, what should the Void Hunter do? There is also the Fu family......" Liu Nan asked the question he was most concerned about, the reason why he talked about the Fu family, Liu Nan thought that he could find the Void Hunter, Fu Yu did his best, and even paid his life for it, if the academy could not make up for the Fu family, Liu Nan would never forgive.
"Don't worry, the stakes are very high, and we can't act hastily, Dean Hong means to convene the Genting Conference, make this matter public, and invite the Fu family to join us, but at this time, after the exploration of the Dimensional Cave is over, you will naturally have to attend. Qin Wen said seriously.
"So much for the best. Liu Nan was relieved. And Chu Yi was shocked, his Natural Way Genting Conference, this is a meeting that will only be held when the Qiyun tribe is at stake, it has not been held for nearly 50 years, I didn't expect this matter to have such a significant impact. However, looking at Liu Nan's appearance, he had already expected it.
"Then we'll quit first. "The matter is settled, Liu Nan and Chu Yi both say goodbye and leave, and tomorrow morning, the two of them have to go to the Dimensional Cave again. Although there are a lot fewer people, this time Liu Nan and Chu Yi both feel a lot more relaxed, the benefits of fewer people and fewer people, fast action, and few opinions.
For tomorrow, Chu Yi is already a little impatient.
