Chapter 579: Postgraduate Entrance Examination Battlefield - Burning Fortress
"Are you sure you want to enter the battlefield of the hero test? Once the inheritance of the graduate school entrance examination is confirmed, it cannot be changed!"
The inheritance sculptures of the Hall of Heroes and the Spirit of the Ashes issued a confirmation to Hu Siming. In front of the other hero statues in the distance, the students who participated in the hero test have been teleported away one after another. Seeing the lights light up one after another, Hu Siming's heart suddenly calmed down and chose to be sure.
It's the Spirit of the Ashes!
As Hu Siming made a choice, the statue in front of him lit up violently, and the overwhelming flames engulfed him.
"Coming to the exclusive battlefield of the Hero Test...... Since he is one of the top 100 students on the elite combat power list, he has additional permissions and can choose the battlefield freely. ”
"Please wait ......"
As far as the eye could see, there were raging and heavy flames everywhere. That flame seemed to have the power to burn through the Eight Desolations, but it was very gentle to Hu Siming, giving him an inexplicable sense of intimacy. After waiting for about two or three seconds, several miniature battlefield models of different sizes slowly appeared, spinning at low speed in the air not far in front of him.
Although it is difficult to see the details, with a brief introduction and general terrain, you can still understand the characteristics of different battlefields.
Perhaps it was a coincidence, or as if he felt a guide, among the battlefields tested by these heroes, Hu Siming took a fancy to a medium-sized battlefield [Burning Fortress] at first sight.
It was a fortress built in the mountains to guard the terrifying monsters nearby. It's a pity that after a change in the leylines, the eruption of the volcano where the fortress is located directly destroyed half of the city, and the flames burned for three months. After that, the Burning Fortress was renamed and was abandoned. However, there is still one hero who chooses to stay, alone in the abandoned fortress.
His name is Stein!
Master of the Ember Spirit Legacy!
After understanding the simple background, Hu Siming did not think too much or hesitate, and quickly finalized this battlefield. He had a hunch that this terrain and the mode of hero testing might well be the most suitable for him to play.
"[Burning Fortress] Battlefield Selection!"
With this prompt, the battlefield loads begin. The flames that had been all over the line of sight quickly exploded, turning into magnificent streamers. When Hu Siming's eyes lit up and he stepped back on the ground, he had already appeared at the foot of a silent volcano.
"Enter the Burning Fortress battlefield. ”
"The Legacy of the Ash Spirit is opened, and the first mission is: before dark, climb the fortress at the top of the mountain and see the Ash Spirit. ”
"If you die in the middle of the process, or fail to reach the top of the mountain at the specified time, you will be deemed to have failed the postgraduate entrance examination. Ten soul stones will not be returned. To compensate, you can master any of the Ember Spirit's minor skills. ”
"Note 1: In the battlefield of this hero test, all monsters and units are battlefield simulations, and no experience or drops will appear when killed. ”
"Explanation 2: Because it is a simulated battlefield, dying in battle will not lose Shouyuan, nor will it drop the real name key. ”
"Explanation 3: The Ash Spirit has an alias called Fire Panda. And as long as it's a panda, they all like spirits. The wine made from the fruit of the sun is a favorite of the sting, and it may be possible to do what it likes. It's just that the Burning Sun Sacred Tree, which grows at an altitude of thousands of meters above sea level, must be guarded by powerful demonic beasts around it. Be careful with your life when picking......"
Climb to the top of the mountain!
After reading the first step of the task, Hu Siming has a general understanding of the task of this postgraduate entrance examination. Although the volcano with the fortress is very high, it is only 2,000 meters above sea level. With the speed of the trainees, it is easy to rush up if there is no obstruction. However, the time given for the mission ended in dark, and there were still eight hours to go. That alone was enough for Hu Siming to figure out the difficulty of the task.
I'm afraid that just the link of going up the mountain to apprentice is enough to stop eighty percent of the postgraduate students.
In addition to the main requirements, the third point of the mission description also mentions an interesting news: the spirit of ashes, that is, the tutor of this graduate school entrance examination, likes the wine made from the fruit of the sun!
Although there is no requirement in the first ring of the main quest, it is only said that rushing to the top of the mountain will be completed, but Hu Siming knows very well that the battlefield will never give irrelevant explanations. This Burning Sun Fruit may not prevent students from carrying out the next round of tasks, but it is likely to have a hidden impact on the difficulty of the task or the reward of the task. The stakes for this impact may be considerable.
After all, there is no difficulty to choose from in the hero test, and whether a student can get the inheritance is related to how far the student can go in the battlefield and how far he or she can go. Whether you can get the Burning Sun Fruit is undoubtedly the most obvious plus point.
As for the kind reminders in the task, let the students do what they can......
Hu Siming is confident in his strength!
If he doesn't have the possibility of completing it, it is almost impossible for the students who have always initiated the postgraduate entrance examination to get it!
With firm conviction, Hu Siming walked a few hundred meters at the foot of the mountain and officially set foot on the volcano where the burning fortress is located. This steep mountain range with huge black and red volcanic rocks everywhere is only a Z-shaped trail leading to the top. Hu Siming didn't need to think about the road, and climbed up the stone steps of the mountain road.
The hot wind blew from the other side of the mountain, and you could faintly smell the pungent sulfur smell from the top of the mountain.
Since it hasn't erupted for a long time, the mountains that should have been untouched seem to have grown a lot of plants, such as red thorns with sword-like leaves, or towering fire palms, and even the unknown large-leaved yellow huā. Such a volcanic scenery should be quite unique, but when Hu Siming walked in it, he only felt a great crisis.
Not long after he stepped onto the mountain road, a volcanic monster was eyeing him.
After upgrading to Elite LV10, Hu Siming's attributes have reached an extremely astonishing level, with an average of more than 35 points. If it's an ordinary monster, it's easy for him to notice, even if it's a stealth monster, you can feel a little bit after staring at it for a long time. But in this unknown battlefield, he couldn't feel where the monster was secretly peeping was.
The surrounding environment was still peaceful, and it didn't look like there was a big danger, but his intuition in his heart kept warning him.
Hu Siming chose to trust this intuition!
In the end, the super high attribute is of great use, and if you change it to a student with no more than 30 points in the three attributes, I am afraid that you will not be able to perceive the abnormality at all in such an environment. However, Hu Siming's vigilance allowed him to finally lock on the monster with a super breathing ability in a state of loose on the outside and tight on the inside.
Three meters away!
As if an invisible string had been touched, Hu Siming suddenly sensed that an enemy had launched an attack from three meters behind his left side.
Although he felt that it was a little too late at this distance, Hu Siming relied on the sudden increase of 16 movement speed of phase movement, suddenly rushed forward, and successfully dodged the attack with a distance of one step. After running wildly for three seconds, Hu Siming's ultra-high movement speed finally helped him shake off the enemy behind him for a distance, and bought time to turn around calmly.
It was a small, skinny monster that resembled a monkey.
In the battlefield of the hero test, the omniscient eye will not have any records, and Hu Siming can only rely on his own exploration skills to obtain simple information.
Rating LV24, Green Name Elite Monster, [Shadow Ember Barbarian].
The shadow prefix before the name is probably the source of its ability to converge breath. As for the real name, it should be the last four words: Ember Barbarian. Probably because the opponent's level is higher than Hu Siming's, the exploration technique only obtained the information of two skills. One is a brutal raid, and the other is embers.
From the name, it doesn't seem to be much to see, and there is also a skill unknown!
The other party only left Hu Siming such a short time to think, and then chased after him again. The red copper-colored short knife in his hand slashed through at a tricky angle and amazing speed, easily taking away Hu Siming's 100+ HP.
And that's after deducting 7 armor damage reductions!
In the unified examination in the second semester of his sophomore year, Hu Siming still needs to join forces with his teammates to defeat the elite monster of LV25, the captain of the amusement park security guard. And now, although much stronger than then, he must face the Ember Barbarians alone. The level of this monster was only one level lower than that of the enemy at that time.
Moreover, the captain of the amusement park security guard is one of the monsters at the finale level of the unified examination, and the ember barbarian at the moment is the first one encountered on the road to graduate school!
The deep pressure came up like a tidal wave.
If it's the inheritance of certain heroes, such as heroes who have stealth abilities and are good at finding opportunities to sneak attack, you can try to rely on skills or movement speed to get rid of these monsters. But Ember Spirit is a hero who can take on late-game duties and is the heart of the team. Although there is also a strong mobility ability, this mobility ability is to allow the Ash Spirit to have a better output environment, not to run away without a fight!
Because of this, Hu Siming did not choose to avoid, but let go and fight.
The Flame Burst skill struck, knocking the Ember Barbarians unconscious for one and a half seconds. The talent flame ignites on the Sword of Proverbs, providing up to 5 armor reductions. Taking advantage of the fact that the target could not dodge, Hu Siming began to attack with all his might. With an attack power of up to 106 points, he has an amazing output whether it is a critical hit or a basic attack.
In just three swords, Hu Siming, who triggered the critical hit, hit 400+ damage!
The sword marks that were visible to the bones, as well as the burning pain of the flames on the sword, aroused the ferocity of the ember barbarians. After the dizziness was over, the red copper short knife in its hand suddenly lit up with a gray light, and stabbed Hu Siming in the shoulder. Because he was not familiar with the opponent's attack mode, Hu Siming still couldn't dodge, and his blood volume was knocked out by more than 100 points again. There is more of a debuff on his body!
Ember: After stacking five times in a row, Ember will be detonated, dealing massive damage and armor-piercing.
With the ability to transmogrify, Hu Siming was not too worried about embers, but continued to step up the output. As he gradually grasped the opponent's short-term attack forward swing, in the next time, Hu Siming used his heroic charge skills to charge closely, not only rushing to attack and hit a round of damage, but also successfully interrupted the opponent's attack. (To be continued.)
