Chapter 200: The June Trial
A month and a half passed in a flash, and yesterday, the voice from the dean Bai Sheng came from that snow-capped mountain, and five days later, the June trial officially began
A month and a half is still relatively tight for Xiao Zheng and the others, and there are even fewer people who can go through the entire seventh district from the beginning to the edge of the Yellow River, the students who participated in the trial have been screened layer by layer, and the rest is only about 10,000 people, and most of the students are gathered in the edge of the seventh district, some of them go deeper, and some of the strength bypasses some too strong beasts and marches deeper
In fact, Xiao Zheng and others belong to this category, relying on not very strong strength, carefully bypassing the junction between some super-powerful beasts and beasts, and finally reaching the banks of the Yellow River, in fact, at least more than half of them can do this, but there are only a few hundred people who really have the guts, and in the end some of them died with bad luck on the way, and no one knows how many people are left, but there are certainly not many people
The reason why some people will take this risk is naturally for a reason, just like Xiao Zheng and others, the purpose is to be able to travel conveniently in the future, because when the trial is over and enters the real learning stage, even the students in the marginal area will be threatened by a large number of fierce beasts when traveling, and this threat can only be relatively reduced after adaptation, and there is a very safe way to travel on the edge of the Yellow River, which is shipbuilding
As long as the boat is a means of transportation, it is not a problem to manufacture it as long as you know a little, and it is difficult for the aggressive fish in the river water to cause harm to the people on board, so it is undoubtedly an extremely convenient choice in the long run, of course, it does not mean that the students along the Yellow River will be easier than the students on the edge, the danger is relative
When a large number of beasts are released, the students gathered at the edge are naturally not a good choice for the beasts to attack, and although the released beasts are freed, they will pose a certain threat to the students, but as long as they stick to the residence built for up to six months, there will generally not be too many casualties, but due to the strength of the beasts themselves, the weak beasts will be accumulated on the edge in large quantities, and the powerful ones will naturally go to the depths, so the result is that the number of beasts in the area has increased greatly and the strength has skyrocketed. Beasts piled up at the edges, and more beasts gradually moved inward
But these are nothing to Xiao Zheng at this time, because he only built a tree house before, and now the top priority is to quickly get enough places for five people to live, so he can't sleep together all the time, it's too inconvenient, even if Xiao Zheng is willing, and this is the reason why the third daughter is strongly requested
In desperation, Xiao Zheng had to temporarily assume the profession of construction worker, specializing in the art industry, Xiao Zheng would not have this, and the construction worker is not as simple as cutting a few trees and tying them up with rattan ropes, due to various problems, he repeatedly retreated, Xiao Zheng temporarily borrowed Bing'er's soft sword, ran to a place a few miles upstream to see the suitable tree and threw it into the water, and then the four women cooperated to fish it up downstream to save physical strength and increase efficiency. The damage caused by violence is too great, and at the beginning, a lot of wood destroyed by Xiao Zheng was wasted, but those woods were not wasted, and those woods were roughly processed and made into some simple small organs that were learned from the army, not seeking to kill, and could serve as an alarm
Xiao Zheng spent nearly ten days cutting dozens of more suitable timber that is not thick or fine, and then began to build the tree house, after the unanimous request of all the women, the tree house underground does not live in people, and find another tree on the tree, because the four big trees surrounded by rattan ropes have many branches suitable for construction, so the project is indefinitely increased
Before Bai Sheng's voice spread throughout the entire Central Island, Xiao Zheng and the others already knew that time was running out, so they first built two simple tree houses so that the four girls could sleep, and Xiao Zheng began to set up small institutions everywhere to remind the invasion, and then specially surrounded a small fence to temporarily put the processed wood in, and sprinkled some of Han Ling'er's insect repellent powder for preservation
After finishing these, it is already the second day after Bai Sheng announced the countdown, and there are still four days before the June trial officially begins, but when the beast spreads to the Yellow River, it will be at least half a month later, which is also one of the reasons why Xiao Zheng is not in a hurry at all, and those small mechanisms have also been manufactured, it is enough to find that there is a beast attacking in time, and it is impossible to be one percent of the golden gold, and the requirements cannot be too high
Xiao Zheng, who finished doing this, did not feel relaxed, while the other students were nervously waiting for the beast to wash, Xiao Zheng was still nervously carrying out his own big project, first of all, it was to strengthen the tree house of the four beauties, for which Xiao Zheng consumed almost one-fifth of the wood, fortunately, those rattan ropes had the help of the four women and did not have to worry about it, and the time for reinforcement was very small, and the next work became easier because the four women wanted to get closer
When Xiao Zheng hurried to strengthen the two treehouses, the June trial officially began
Xiao Zheng is located in the seventh district, and the Huangjiang River, where Xiao Zheng and the others are located, is also even closer, so they didn't see the beasts transported by the imperial ships, but the old students in the other five regions saw it clearly, most of these beasts were deliberately stayed, and for the annual trial of the Central Academy, in fact, when Bai Sheng announced the countdown of five days, it was the time when the beasts got off the ship
A huge iron cage was sent from the three docks towards the Central Academy, but the roar of the beast did not spread too far, in fact, with the size of the academy, as long as it was not the last time the wolves went out, the situation of howling in unison made the movement too big, and it was generally difficult to spread far
The beasts in the iron cage have to be inspected by the old students of the academy, nothing more than to see if they are alive, and then leave the snake beasts that are difficult for the vast majority of freshmen to do, and only release a small part, and when they are ready, put these beasts in the trial area, and when the time comes, the mechanic will naturally open the cage and release it, as for whether the beasts will rush in the direction of the academy, the answer is definitely impossible, not to mention that the academy is full of talents, and there will definitely be no shortage of animal repellent or insect repellent medicine, Moreover, the separation between the trial area and the outside world is not something that a beast can rush through
And when the roar of the beast was liberated spread throughout the seventh district, the aborigines in the district did not make the slightest sound, as if they were accompanying the students to face it, but it is not known if they will be as nervous as the students in the fringe area
The beast roared and rushed into the depths of the dense forest, and soon disappeared in the eyes of those students of the Order Society, this is only the first batch, the number is not too large, but the students of the Order Society all looked nervous, and none of them showed the slightest relaxation, as a person who came over, when the casualties were the greatest and clearest
The first large-scale casualty was the first batch of beasts released, these beasts were the weakest, but they were still not something that the students could easily deal with, but because ninety-nine percent of the students had no actual combat experience, even the so-called survival experience was just a little bit, when such a number of beasts poured in, a group of students could soon be eliminated, but after that, the casualties would be slightly lower
The students of the Order Society looked at each other, and then retreated one by one, and the entire academy would also stop all activities during the June trial, including the closure of Heavenly Dead City, which was unanimously agreed upon by the three empires and the elders of the demon clan, even if the purpose was to let these future elites know what cruelty was, but in the eyes of these strong people, they were still just children
It was only more than an hour after the release of the beast, and the students of the Order Society, who had not returned on the Ten Thousand Steps Road, had already heard the roar of the beasts, obviously, there had already been a fierce beast and the students had encountered, and the students of the Order Society were secretly annoyed by how this student chose his place of residence so close to the edge, but unfortunately it was useless to say anything now, thinking that he and the others had chosen to be so close to the edge
I didn't hear the screams, but I didn't have to guess to know that the student must have been torn to pieces by the beast, but compared to the students of the previous year, these students encountered it after more than an hour, and it was obvious that the quality of this class of students was worse, but this was just the beginning
"Did you start?" Shangguan Wan'er looked at Xiao Zheng's roasted pork leg and said with some doubts
"Let's start," Ye Xiaoqing said with some uncertainty, and couldn't help but look at Bing'er
Bing'er raised her head and shook her head, "I don't know, maybe we're too far away from there, I can't hear it."
Han Ling'er stared intently at the pork leg that was already dripping with oil, and said, "What do you care about that, anyway, even if we come over, we are not afraid!"
The third girl looked at Han Ling'er speechlessly, and then roasted the cleaned fish rack on the fire, Han Ling'er was right, although it was a little casual, but this is indeed a fact, and it will take at least half a month for those fierce beasts to affect her, so she really doesn't need to care, but Han Linger's attitude is really a bit unbearable
The trial started a little unfeeling, since the announcement of the start in the early morning, it was almost evening, Xiao Zheng and the others didn't seem to realize it, they should eat and drink, but they didn't know that the students on the edge were exactly two extremes compared to Xiao Zheng and the others
The students felt that the beasts were everywhere, and the roars never stopped for almost a moment, and no one dared to make a fire, because at this time, the fire not only did not scare the beasts away, but would attract more beasts to come, and the students at the edge had not eaten hot food for almost a day, although a lot of food was stored, but on the first day, many students couldn't help but eat a lot, although it still seemed that there were a lot of them
