Chapter 254: Graduation Exam
A month later
"Roar!!
A deafening roar came from the Cyclops's mouth, but there was a hint of timidity in the furious voice.
Looking at the cyclops who was roaring wildly in front of him but refused to step forward, Zheng Shu wiped the blood splashed on his face and hooked his fingers towards the cyclops: "Don't call, come on!" Your companions have fallen, don't you want to help them get revenge? ”
Although he couldn't understand the meaning of Zheng Shu's words, the cyclops revealed a frightened look in his eyes that occupied half of his face after seeing Zheng Shu's gesture, which was simply an incredible thing for a cyclops known for his brutality and low IQ.
But if you turn the camera around the cyclops, you might understand why he was so frightened.
The forest was littered with the broken remains of trees, and among them lay a dozen Cyclops who had lost their breath.
Each of the Cyclops looked unusually miserable, covered in scars from beatings, with huge eyes bursting, and some of the more brutal ones even having their fangs completely broken in their mouths - these Cyclops were completely beaten to death with their fists.
"Don't be nervous, do you see something on my wrist? I'm suppressing my power to the same as you, come on! Zheng Shu showed the bracer on his wrist, which was a training tool that Keron had created for him, which could restrain Zheng Shu's strength and allow him to use the same strength and speed as the opponent in every battle.
After hesitating for a moment, although he didn't understand what Zheng Shu said, the brutality in his heart finally overcame fear.
"Roar!"
With a roar, the only remaining cyclops threw away the broken wooden stick in his hand, and his body burst out with a beast-like momentum, and he pounced towards Zheng Shu with his bare hands.
"Very good, very imposing, that's it!" Zheng Shu's face also showed an excited smile.
Raising his hand to block the Cyclops' fist, Zheng Shu had a rough idea of the enemy's physical fitness through the power transmitted from his arm. As his mind moved, the arm guard on his wrist came into play, adjusting Zheng Shu's strength to a level that was slightly weaker than that of the cyclops.
Seeing that his pounce was blocked, the cyclops desperately opened his big mouth, revealing a mouth full of sharp teeth and biting Zheng Shu's head.
"Not bad idea, but then your weaknesses are exposed to me." Leisurely judging the enemy's offensive in his mouth, Zheng Shu did not choose to carry it hard this time, but retreated to let the cyclops's bite fail.
Taking advantage of the opportunity for the other party to put his head up, Zheng Shu suddenly let go sideways, causing the cyclops, who was originally in a somewhat tilted position, to lose his balance. Immediately after the elbow bent up, the unbalanced cyclops happened to be hit in the eye by this elbow, and it looked like he took the initiative to put his eyes on Zheng Shu's elbow.
"Whew!" With a terrible howl, the cyclops scrambled to his feet from the ground and struck indiscriminately in the direction of his remembered enemy.
"Sure enough, no matter how much it looks like a human, the brain capacity is still too small, and once it is hurt, it will be a complete beast." Zheng Shu leisurely dodged the Cyclops' fist attacks, and only sighed with some pity as he looked at the frantic enemy.
"It seems that the training effect has reached the limit, so you are useless." Gently swinging his head to dodge a straight punch attack from the cyclops, Zheng Shu took advantage of the opportunity of the opponent's empty door to stretch out his palm and "gently" pushed the palm towards the cyclops' chin.
Click.
The crisp sound of bones breaking came, and the Cyclops' originally frantic movements paused, and then his body slowly fell to the ground.
Learning from Keron to condense a mirror that can reflect his own image through magic power, Zheng Shu looked at his face and shook his head helplessly: "My appearance hasn't changed at all recently, and it seems that using these brainless things as sparring partners has reached the limit." ”
He didn't care about the corpses everywhere, the other creatures in the forest would take care of it for him. Zheng Shu took a step forward and walked towards the location where Karong was.
……
……
"Teacher, I'm back!"
Hearing Zheng Shu's voice, Kai Rong, who was making herbs, looked up at his apprentice's wall-like figure: "How is it?" Have you gained anything in the past few days? ”
"It's not very good." Zheng Shu sat next to Caron very skillfully, and directly picked up the water tank on the side and drank it as a water cup, "The Cyclops' IQ is still too low, now even if I suppress my strength to the same level as them, and obey the teacher's instructions, I can easily win without any attack in the battle...... The next few days didn't yield anything at all. ”
"Hmm...... Your appearance has not changed much this time. Ka Rong carefully observed Zheng Shu's appearance and nodded approvingly.
Looking at Zheng Shu's lost appearance, Caron smiled angrily and patted his student's shoulder: "What are you missing, the Cyclops have a very strong fighting instinct among all the beasts, and they will also have hunting skills inherited from their parents." If you can win on the premise that I ask, at least it means that your fighting skills have been mastered. ”
Continuing to bow his head to make the herbs, Charon had a leisurely smile on his face: "Moreover, you have also learned my 'Pankrasin', and for the time being, I have nothing to guide you." ”
"Hmm......" Zheng Shu suddenly showed some alertness, because he heard a different meaning from his teacher's tone.
Packing the last herb to look good, Charon looked up at his student.
Seeing that Zheng Shu seemed to want to say something but didn't say it, Karong stood up and let his eyes be level with Zheng Shu, reached out and touched his hair: "There is no need to be sad, the connection between us has not been severed, and being able to teach such excellent students as you and Hercules is my greatest achievement." And...... Once you've overcome your own fears, you can still come to me and talk to me. ”
"Yes...... I know. Zheng Shu bowed his head slightly.
"Okay, you don't have to be so low." Kajon stuffed the herbs he had just made into his backpack, "If you want to become a teacher, you have to complete one last test. I'm looking forward to seeing what you do, don't let me down. ”
……
……
"Roar!"
"Roar!"
Amidst the roars one after another, a group of cyclops are gathering together for an inexplicable ceremony.
In the middle of them was a guy who was a head taller than the other Cyclops, and judging by his performance, he should be the leader of the group of Cyclops.
At this time, the Cyclops leader was standing on a blood-red altar and constantly dancing his body, and around the altar there was a large pile of prey hunted by the Cyclops, which was constantly turning into blood-red light and merging into the altar with the dancing of the Cyclops leader.
"So that guy is the cause of the Cyclops riot all this time?"
In a bush on a cliff in the distance, Zheng Shu and Karong looked at the primitive ritual on another mountain, I don't know if it was an illusion, Zheng Shu always felt that the altar was very familiar.
"It's this guy, I don't know why the leader of this cyclops suddenly has an IQ that has increased so much, and even learned to hide his altar, and even the prey he catches is only transported once in a while. I waited a long time before I finally found a chance to follow these cyclops here. ”
Charon looked at the enemy in the distance with a solemn face, and as the ritual progressed, the aura on the Cyclops leader in the center became stronger and stronger, and the blood-red aura that he had not digested escaped to the surrounding cyclops, making these giants gradually strengthen.
"It seems that we came in time, and the other party's ceremony is at a critical moment." Kajon turned his head to look at Zheng Shu, "Go!" The Cyclops boss is smart enough to be your rival. ”
"Good!" Zheng Shu nodded without further delay, and after accumulating his strength like the Hulk, he jumped up suddenly, stepping out of a large crater on the ground beneath him, and he himself jumped towards the other mountain range like a cannonball being fired.
Rumble!
Like the movement of a meteorite hitting the ground, Zheng Shu jumped precisely next to the sacrifice site of the group of cyclops, splashing a large cloud of dust. After the dust around him fell, I saw Zheng Shu standing on the ground, and there was a shallow radial pit with a diameter of several meters under his feet.
"It's so energetic." Kajon shook his head slightly at his student's rough movements, his light brown hair dancing in the wind, "Okay, then how should I get there?" ”
On the other side, the one-eyed giants who were attracted by the huge movement made by Zheng Shu when he appeared on the stage looked at Zheng Shu's majestic body revealed after the dust cleared, and their bloodshot pupils revealed a violent look.
"Roar!"
Without any hesitation at all, the one-eyed giants, who had already been ruined by the power provided by the sacrificial ritual, rushed towards Zheng Shu.
In their opinion, if a strong prey like Zheng Shu is caught and used for sacrifice, his strength will definitely be able to increase by several grades.
Looking at the group of cyclops rushing towards him, Zheng Shu glanced around and found that even the little wisdom in their pupils had completely disappeared, leaving only the brutality of beasts.
Pursing his lips, Zheng Shu's expression was a little disgusted: "It's boring, you didn't let me improve the value of technology at all." ”
As he spoke, Zheng Shu shook his head and easily dodged a wooden stick wielded by a cyclops.
He stepped forward and broke into the Cyclops' open chest, his palm opened and slapped it gently, with a crisp click, the palm hit the Cyclops' chin and broke his neck.
didn't care about the soft in front of him, and turned slightly sideways to dodge the attack of the two cyclops.
At the moment when the two sides staggered, Zheng Shu handed out his hands and grabbed the back of the necks of the two cyclops and squeezed them hard.
Click.
With two crisp sounds, the two cyclops who had originally attacked Zheng Shu fell directly to the ground and lost their breath.
Although the cyclops in the back pounced one after another, Zheng Shu still looked relaxed.
Bowed, possessed, sideways.
Rub, press, take, lift, split.
All kinds of moves are easily performed in Zheng Shu's hands, and every move can dodge the enemy's attack, and every attack can hit the enemy's vital point.
After a while, the group of guards around the altar, who were obviously stronger than ordinary cyclops, were easily pushed to the ground by Zheng Shu, and all of them lost their lives.
Compared to a few months ago, Zheng Shu's absolute strength has not improved much, but a few months ago, when he first encountered these cyclops, he couldn't even kill them with one blow, but now he can quickly "clean up" such a large group of cyclops while suppressing his own strength.
It was only now that Zheng Shu could clearly feel how much his combat effectiveness had improved.
Looking up at the center of the altar, the leader of the cyclops had stopped dancing on the altar.
But he didn't make any offensive gestures, just quietly watched Zheng Shu completely clean up his subordinates, and his huge eyes were full of indifference.
"Wait, wait, the altar, the strengthened subordinates, and the flesh used as sacrifices, why do I find this image so familiar?" Zheng Shu looked at the current situation and suddenly felt that something was wrong...... Where did he seem to have seen such a picture?!
Then, when the Cyclops leader urged the altar to form a blood-red defensive light curtain around him, the sense of immediacy became even stronger.
"Bolferion!" The Cyclops leader opened his hands and looked up at the sky, calling out a name full of mysterious power.
Zheng Shu's face immediately darkened: "Grass! Aren't those guys in Tagantes Titans? How do you feel that these guys are more like cockroaches, you can see them everywhere! ”
Bolferion, like Arcuonius, was a member of the Decandes, and was one of the two leaders of the Cergantes, along with Arcuonius. Suddenly hearing such a name in the mouth of the cyclops leader, Zheng Shu simply had the illusion of "reunion after a long absence".
Spit and complain, but the movements under Zheng Shu's hands are not slow at all.
Gently pressed the switch on the bracelet, and the two bracelets immediately opened and left Zheng Shu's body, and in an instant, the power that was originally suppressed by magic returned to his body.
As soon as Zheng Shu's footsteps moved, his figure immediately disappeared in place, and when he reappeared, it was already directly in front of the blood-red light curtain.
Lunges, straight punches.
Rumble!!!
