Chapter 257: The Mission Begins

Spring in the south of the empire is always drizzling, not dry and comfortable, and everywhere is wet and dripping. Especially in the early morning, when the leaves above the head begin to flourish, and the roots and yellow grass buds that emerge from the ground are inevitably stained with a few crystal clear round water droplets of different sizes, making it impossible to distinguish whether it is the rain falling from the sky or the dew condensed before dawn.

Today's sky, due to the falling water, is full of impure white clouds mixed with jet black, obscuring the sun that should have appeared long ago, and it looks a little gray.

Today is the second time that the new disciples of the Blue Dragon Society have entered the mountain to complete the hunting mission. Early in the morning, Le Qi rushed to the meeting place as agreed, as if he refused to live up to the good intentions of the hard-working and responsible task management elder, Elder Xie.

He arrived early, but the others refused to lag behind, and when he arrived at the meeting place, he glanced at it and found that many familiar figures were already standing among them, in piles of three or two, some of them not talking, as if they were going to make their own bold words before leaving.

Finding Huang Jin's figure, Le Qi hurriedly walked over, reached out and patted him on the shoulder, and greeted him with a smile: "Come so early." ”

Hearing the familiar voice and turned around, Huang Jin saw that Le Qi was still smiling, and said happily: "Of course it must be early, otherwise how will I see you for the last time, but you can still laugh now, and you are very well prepared!"

"Stop, the last side is still free! As for the preparation, I am more or less sure. Le Qi denied that the last side was a word.

Huang Jin saw that Le Qi was confident, and he also settled down a little, pointed to the direction of the wall, and said with a smile: "It's good to be sure." See, among the dozen or so old students standing on the other side of the wall, there are two executioners sent by Xie Di, I heard that some of them have reached the Star Mystery Realm, which two do you guess will follow you?"

"What is there to guess about this, we will find out later. Le Qi said indifferently, guessing what it means, anyway, in the end, it is two black and white impermanence. Now they are ready, fully armed, just waiting for them to show their murderous fangs.

"Are you so sure, aren't you afraid, are you two Star Xuan Realm disciples?" Seeing Le Qi's calm appearance, Huang Jin couldn't help but be a little curious, what kind of preparation did he have, he was so confident and completely fearless.

Le Qi replied vaguely: "Reluctantly, it shouldn't be a big problem." ”

"Well, if you say goodbye today, I don't know when we will see each other, take care!"

"Don't worry, I'll be back in five years!"

Soon, Xie Di came on time, and after finding the figure of Le Qi in the crowd, he smiled reassuringly, hehe, this matter is stable.

Elder Xie beckoned Huang Jin over, gave a few simple instructions, and ordered him to sort out the team. Then, he walked to the position of the old students, glanced at two of them covertly, and after receiving their nods in response, he nodded with satisfaction, and led the team of old students to the new students in a comfortable mood.

When Huang Jin saw Xie Di coming, although he was not happy with this fake old king, he also knew that he couldn't compete with him now, so he still said respectfully: "Elder Xie, except for Kana, all the freshmen of the Blue Dragon Society are here. ”

Hearing this, Xie Di nodded casually, as long as he saw that the fat sheep of Le Qi had arrived, it didn't matter if the others arrived or not, of course, the play still had to be done enough, he explained: "Well, Kana

I know the situation, she has already set off in advance, hehe, now even if all the staff is here!"

Immediately, he said solemnly: "This hunting mission is an indispensable opportunity to sharpen, I hope you can make good use of it and strive to improve yourself in actual combat." At the same time, there is also a danger in entering the mountains and forests, you must know how to protect yourself, judge the form, and don't be too reckless, do you understand?"

"Understood!" the disciples below responded in unison.

Immediately, Xie Di turned around and instructed the old students: "This time, as senior brothers and sisters, you must protect your junior brothers and sisters, but if it is not necessary, you can't help easily, otherwise it will be considered cheating." ”

Xie Di glanced at the two people who had just made eye contact, and commanded normally: "Okay, now let's start assigning protection personnel." Jin Quanjian, Zhao Cheng, the two of you are in the top of the strength, so you will be responsible for taking care of and supervising Le Qi, he is the strength of the Great Xuan Realm, but he assigns tasks according to the standard of the Soul Lock Realm, although the strength is good, there is also a certain danger. You two need a snack, don't go wrong!"

"Yes. When the two of them heard this, they immediately came out of the queue and came to Le Qi's side, glanced at Le Qi with a vague gaze, and inadvertently flashed a strange smile that was not good.

Hearing this, Xie Di first equipped himself with two powerful bodyguards, I don't know, I thought the former took care of himself very much. Le Qi sneered a few times in his heart, it is not wrong to say this, he is indeed very "taking care" of him!

However, Le Qi still pretended not to know and thanked him sincerely: "Thank you for taking care of the elders!"

As he spoke, he arched his hand to Xie Di, and shook the two Void Rings on his fingers in front of the latter's eyes, intentionally or unintentionally. This made his eyes light up, and a knowing smile involuntarily hung on his face.

Then, Le Qi looked at the two people standing beside him again, without any feeling of mortal enemies, nodded and smiled sincerely, and said politely: "Then the two senior brothers will take care of one or two!"

"Senior Brother Le is polite. The two replied with a smile, but in their hearts, they laughed at the stupidity of this happy relative, they were about to die, and they were still thanking themselves.

In less than half an hour, Elder Xie had properly assigned the protection personnel, except for the six people who were strong enough to be taken care of by two old students, and the rest of the disciples were taken care of by six old students.

Everything was ready, Xie Di announced in a loud voice: "The disciples of the Blue Dragon Society listen to the order, the hunting mission has officially begun! Go to the corresponding area to hunt! Those who complete the task can return directly to resume their lives!"

"Disciple commands!" After several disciples below responded loudly in unison, they walked in the direction of the exit of the inner door.

............

On the border of the mountain forest, a knee-high chaotic and desolate meadow, this is one of the roads into the mountain forest, walking on the grass, the trouser leg is brought from the somewhat wet leaves, and is gradually wet, becoming a little sticky, from time to time adsorbed on the legs, and the coolness comes and goes.

At this time, Le Qi parted ways with the rest of the disciples shortly after. Looking at Huang Jin's figure that was gradually moving away, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and he said goodbye silently in his heart: Brother, goodbye.

Immediately, Le Qi smiled again and said to the two black and white impermanence beside him: "Hehe, the weather is good today, it's a good day to carry out the task." ”

Hearing this, Jin and Zhao looked up

Looking at the sky, I saw the sky full of clouds, I was afraid that it was going to rain, and I was stunned for a moment, thinking that this kid is interesting, and this kind of ghost weather is also good. However, there is no need to argue with a dying person about these trivial matters. also casually agreed: "Well, it's good." ”

Le Qi looked left and right, put on a look of not knowing what to do, and asked, "It's just that I don't have much hunting experience, and I don't know where to go for a while, I don't know what advice the two senior brothers have?"

Hearing this, the two sneered in their hearts, this kid is really stupid, and he hasn't known each other yet. Zhao Yu thought about it, since Le Qi asked, why didn't he take advantage of one or two, so he smiled and said: "Hehe, Senior Brother Le doesn't know, demon beasts often like to haunt some remote places, you can consider it." ”

Hearing Zhao Yu's words, Jin Quanjian obviously understood the former's intentions, and also echoed: "That's right, and demon beasts like to live alone, and the number of them in an area is limited, so it is best to choose an area far away from other disciples' hunting, and a remote place should be the best place for this trip." ”

"Well, the two senior brothers and I went to think together! I'm a lonely person who doesn't like to socialize with others, so I want to avoid other disciples on this trip. Le Qi said happily with some surprise, completely putting on an expression that the two of them knew my heart well, but there was a sneer in his heart, hehe, isn't a remote area with no one just an excellent place to kill people and sell goods, how could he not see through the thoughts of the two of them. However, this is also exactly in line with their own hearts, although the purpose is different, but the three of them really want to go together!

Immediately, Le Qi suggested again: "Hey, why don't we go hunting near Wanlei Valley? It's just a little dangerous, I don't know what the strength of the two senior brothers is?"

Hearing this, the two lowered their heads and pondered, and after thinking for a moment, they nodded to each other, and Jin Quanjian replied: "Well, the vicinity of Wanlei Valley is indeed a good hunting area, remote enough, and there are many demon beasts. As for security, junior brother doesn't have to worry, the strength of the two of us is enough to protect you! I am the strength of the second order of the Star Xuan Realm, and you, Senior Brother Zhao, also broke through the Star Xuan Realm not long ago. ”

Obviously, both of them felt that Wanlei Valley was a place with good conditions, and even thought about the explanation after going back. If someone asked how Le Qi died, he would say that the latter was competitive and did not listen to the advice, so he had to go deep into the mountains and forests, saying that he wanted to challenge the fourth-order demon beast in order to correct his own name, but there was no way, they had to follow and try their best to protect Le Qi's thoughtfulness.

It's just that the world is unpredictable, in the process of hunting, they encountered two fierce fifth-order demon beasts, they tried their best to drag the stronger one of them, and let Le Qi escape first, how did the latter panic and ran in the direction of Wanlei Valley, and was forced to a dead end by the poor demon beasts, and rushed directly into Wanlei Valley, dying under the thunder.

What a reasonable explanation! When the time comes, I will randomly find a fourth- or fifth-order demon beast and fight it randomly, and if I suffer some inconsequential injuries, the demon blood will be wiped on my body and face, hehe, Qi Huo! He said that he was furious after knowing that Le Qi had died unexpectedly, and even if he was injured, he would slaughter the damn beast. At that time, you may be able to get the evaluation of others' bravery and tenacity!

The script has been written, and it is also perfect, a reasonable story of brotherhood. It's just that it's hard to say whether there is that performance moment or not. After all, in Le Qi's heart, although it is the same play, the scripts are very different, who is the protagonist of this play, hehe, wait and see.
