Chapter 7: The Trial Begins

Following the gaze of the academy tutor Dris, many boys and girls looked at Hu Lai, who was dressed in a black robe.

After seeing this situation, the aristocratic young man Rubu pulled the sleeve of Naranjie next to him with a gloomy face, and said in a low voice: "He should be afraid of us, so he doesn't dare to continue the trial." ”

When the words fell, Naranjie frowned, and there was some disbelief in his expression, after all, Hu Lai had resisted even him before. But on second thought, Hulai didn't have a strong team, and he had to complete a task that was almost impossible to complete alone, and it was very likely that he would quit the trial: "Hmph! let him pick up his life, it doesn't matter, as long as he is in Easton City, I won't let him have a good time!"

"Brother Naranjie thought about it thoroughly, even if he quit the trial, he would live in Easton City in the future. Ruble hurriedly complimented.

Hulai quietly raised his hand and gently took off the hat that had been covering his face. The slightly delicate face under the black hair leaked out. With a pair of pure black eyes, he looked at the three notebooks in Dris's hand, and slowly spoke: "Mentor Dris, can I be the first to draw lots?"

The sound of gasping cold air suddenly sounded!

It turned out that this civilian boy was going to be the first to draw lots, didn't he know what fear was?

This thought kept flashing through the minds of many aristocratic teenagers.

Driss was also a little surprised, the expression of appreciation on his face quickly faded, and the elusive emotion bloomed in his eyes without concealment: "You are the sixth squad, there is only one member, you can indeed draw lots first." ”

Hulai nodded, Driss was right, he thought the same way, although the three manuals in the mentor's hand were closely related to whether he could complete the task in the future. But the most important thing is to go into the forest first, find a place to stay, and then make the next plan.

After all, Naranjie and Ruble's squad is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and if he draws the manual afterwards, he may be attacked by many noble teams.

Then, Driss raised one palm, and the turquoise light in his eyes flickered slightly.

In a moment, six points of light appeared in the palm of his hand. These points of light have three green ones and three red ones.

Hu Lai walked forward slowly, Driss gently held the point of light in his hand, and slowly spoke: "There is a point of light that I used my telekinesis to temporarily materialize, you can come and draw lots." Green means you get the manual, and red means you can't get the manual. ”

Hulai stared at Dris's fist and muttered for a moment before reaching his hand, which was still not too big, into the gap between Dris's large hand.

A touch similar to that of a bean appeared in Hulai's hand.

He gently clenched the beans in his fist and unfolded them.

"Green! He actually smoked the green one!" suddenly came a voice of surprise and whispering from the crowd of aristocratic teenagers.

Mentor Driss also showed a smile on his face: "I didn't expect to be drawn by you for the first time." ”

As the words fell, Hulai raised his head, his pure black pupils staring at Dris's expression, and he always felt that the other party was deliberately trying to give him a booklet.

Hulai likes to be above board, and he also likes to verify success with his own hands. But it doesn't mean that he is an ignorant person, and this manual is likely to be related to his life.

Driss handed the manual to Hulai, and then continued, "Go ahead, I hope Zuihou I can see you." ”

Hulai nodded, clutched the "Survival Manual" in his hand, and walked in the direction of the forest without saying a word.

"Brother Naranjie, what should I do? That guy entered the forest first, and our Jihua seems to have miscalculated. Ruble muttered to the handsome Naranjie.

Naranjie's eyes, like an eagle staring at its prey, stared at Hu Lai's back, and said coldly: "It's okay, as long as he is in the forest, we have a chance to kill him." ”

"The next one to draw lots, your team will send one person!" At this moment, Driss held out a finger and pointed at the least numbered noble team.

As soon as Hulai walked into the forest, he ran in a completely different direction!

In order not to meet those aristocratic teenagers immediately, he could only hide himself first.

After running for nearly ten minutes, Hulai stopped. While panting for breath, he found a relatively hidden bush and instantly slipped into it.

Because of his weak body, his palms trembled slightly after running.

Hulai quickly removed his black robe, revealing the brown armor sewn from smooth cowhide inside.

This somewhat rudimentary-looking piece of armor was a gift from Claire Sr.

Then, he removed the animal skin bag from his robe and quickly opened it. A small metal box that looked rusty was removed from it.

"Smack!"

The lid of the palm-sized metal box is gently opened. Strange piles of parts, along with a few retractable arrows, appeared in the metal chest.

This rudimentary weapon is a small thing he makes in his spare time at the grocery store. After all, with the wealth he has, he is not enough to go to the weapon shop, or find a forger, and make a very good weapon.

Because of this Shijie's theory about mechanics, Hulai's homemade bow was, to a large extent, stronger than the bow in his distant memory.

The scattered parts of the longbow were quickly assembled by Hulai.

It was a large bow half a man tall, unpretentious in appearance, with two shafts at the tips of the sides. These two shafts are connected in series with an extremely tough animal tendon.

Hulai raised his hand, gently pulled the tendons, and then let go.

"Buzz ......"

The sound of the bowstring trembling sounded softly, and Hu Lai quietly listened to the sound of the bow with his ears.

In a moment, he put the bow that he had already determined to work on his back.

Then, he tied some of the arrows in the metal box to his waist with a delicate rope.

After packing his black robe and bags, Hulai did not immediately get out of the bushes, but opened the "Survival Manual".

Next, he has to use his talent as a teacher to forcibly memorize the key points in this "Survival Manual".

After all, the manual is dead, people are alive, and it is very haode to remember those useful things in the manual, and when some nobles compete with themselves for the manual, they can give up the manual without hesitation.

The "Survival Manual" is very thin, but it contains a lot of things, not only recording more detailed information about lizards and frogs and blood poisonous mosquitoes, but also delineating safe areas in the place of trial.

The main thing Hulai remembered was the area where the lizard and frog lived, as well as the supply area. After all, the mission lasts for seven days, and safe food and some supplies are also extremely important.

It took half an hour for Hulai to let out a long breath of sweat on his forehead.

In such a short period of time, he could not memorize all the information in the "Survival Manual", but there were a few points that Hulai was able to memorize.

He carefully put away the Survival Manual.

Immediately after, the whole person got out of the bushes. Now that about forty minutes have passed, some of the noble ranks should have begun to move towards the place where there are lizards and frogs.

As for some teams that don't have the Survival Manual, it's likely that an agreement was reached with the team that owned.

Hulai has a certain understanding of the minds of the nobles, they are selfish, and they should not contribute the complete information of the manual, after all, if they can complete the trial first, they can gain a higher reputation in the future academy.

After a moment of silence, Hulai ruled out the more hode hunting spots.

It is unrealistic to want to snatch food from the tiger's mouth.

He decided to take advantage of the unpreparedness of the aristocratic teenagers and go to the nearest supply point first to clean up the useful things inside.

Thinking of it, Hulay quickly ran in the direction he had identified, and the grass could be buried up to his knees along the way, and because of this, his speed of running, and the physical strength he needed, became his biggest obstacle.

It wasn't until he had been running among the huge trees for a long time that he left his position on the grass.

Hulai stopped, took a closer look at the nearby terrain, and began to compare it with the map in his mind.

At this point, although it is still on the edge, it has begun to have a certain danger, some poisonous snakes, and mutated beasts, will suddenly kill people when they are not aware of it.

Hulai slowed down, held his breath, and cautiously continued to advance towards his goal.

"Hiss..."

An inscrutable voice rang out.

Hulay moved his ears, grasping the hilt of the dagger with one hand and the longbow behind him with the other.

He breathed steadily, his eyes following the direction of the sound, and slowly locked on.

Upon closer inspection, he found a species of python, different from the butterfly the size of a human head that he had encountered before, the scales of this python were almost the same color as the trunk of a tree.

If it weren't for its scarlet eyes and the purple letter that spitted out slightly, it would have been easy to ignore its existence.

Hulai gently grasped the longbow behind his back in his hand, and with his other hand took out the arrow from his waist.

Holding his breath steadily, he aimed at the poisonous snake in the distance, and gently pulled the bowstring made of animal tendons!

"Bang!"

The sound of arrows piercing the air suddenly sounded! Like a meteor, the arrows drawn in the shade of the trees were fiercely nailed to the head of the poisonous snake!

The pain attacked the nerves of the viper, and it could no longer hide it, and kept struggling.

Hulai reached out and took out the dagger at his waist and quickly approached the viper.

Hand up and knife down!

A red half-moon-shaped knife slash cut off the head of the viper!
