Volume 2 Relic of the Throne Chapter 4 Additional Quests
As the semester ends, the traps laid by the former enforcers in the ancient forest are waiting to be dismantled and replaced.
Adult aliens must also be removed, and in the academy's restricted area, staff are busy sharpening knives and dispensing gunpowder. This year, they didn't bring back monsters of enough age from outside the wall, so they could only extract ventricular fluid from those monsters who had reached adulthood, store it in glass tubes, and store it in the ice cellar.
The blood drawn from the monster's ventricles was reddish, a little lighter than normal blood, but it corroded the metal needles of their syringes. In other words, they can corrode metals of any material, especially ferrous ones. Ventricular fluids are extremely active, and they must be kept in cold ice cellars, or they may also blow up the test tubes. Without contact with the air, they will turn black and become less active, but they will not die.
In next year's training, students can only use reinforced and modified intramural creatures.
I don't know what happened outside, I heard that they were all wiped out, and there had never been such a heavy loss in the history of hunters.
"How many have been used by the new hunters this year?" asked a man wearing a filter hood.
"I don't know, it's more than seventy, only i943 is pureblood, it has been pumped ninety percent of its strength.."
"Scare those imps, the rest is enough, and the winter investigation is about to begin."
When the sun goes down, the forest is getting darker. The men crouched lazily on the top of the wire-enclosed wall, puffing white smoke.
The man who completed the mission was gone, leaving behind a few sweaty men and his righteous teammates.
Xia Ming is also a relatively open-minded person, since the failure of the installation of 13, all the steps are careful and careful, and the parts and modules are numbered together. Occasionally, there are times when the hands tremble, especially when placing the parts of the mechanical parts, and the hands cannot stop shaking, and the help of tweezers is required.
Mu Siyu was holding a dagger, carving a piece of wood in a dagger, Xia Ming couldn't see what she was carving in her hand, but on her side, there were wood chips all over the table. Xia Ming thought she was actually scraping wood.
Dai Yana couldn't help but look at Mu Siyu from time to time, because the gap between the two was too big, and when Xia Ming was still using tweezers to control the precision, Mu Siyu's knife technique was already in the subtle realm.
I heard that Mu Shiyu, this little girl, has learned carving knives from the old man of the Mu family for nine years, and as long as there is another year, she will be able to completely control this realm. The subtle realm is just a kind of control of strength, although it is not an absolutely destructive power, but it can greatly reduce the consumption of physical strength during the fight.
Outside the wall, stamina is the remaining health.
For Dai Yana, her physical strength is unlimited, but she can't master the subtle realm of human beings. She can't have human-like touch, she only has frozen combat moves, which are all hunting techniques that she has copied by observing humans.
"Teacher!?"
Someone called her.
Dai Yana lost her mind at some point, and when she came back to her senses, she saw that it was the rest of the people who came to talk to her.
She tugged at the hook at random, and the sharp blade of the hook cut a few thin marks on her fingers, and she didn't care, feeling that the traction was okay and let them pass.
It was already dark, and Dai Yana also said to Xia Ming, "That's all for today, if there is a next class, we'll see you again." ”
Xia Ming deliberately said, "No, I still have to play a little longer.."
Diana said, "Get out!"
Xia Ming ran away immediately, it was not appropriate to stay here for a long time, and he had never heard Dai Yana burst into foul language.
Xia Ming saw the people who left earlier, there seemed to be a person whose back was very similar to Sulos, but how could he stay? Except for the cheater's name being the first, who didn't know Sulos's name. Could it be that this is the legend that the better the grades, the worse the hands-on ability.
Xia Ming quickened his pace, caught up with Suros, and shouted at him.
As members of the rookie group, they still meet like strangers.
As soon as he shouted like this, Sulos turned his head and cast a cold look at him, like an enemy, and asked lightly, "What's the matter?" ”
Xia Ming shook his head, and Sulos also turned back silently, and a group of people left as if centered on him.
Xia Ming said: "Things are a little weird. ”
"What's weird?" Mu Shiyu had already walked up.
"That guy named Sullos seems to be upset with me?"
"He's a member of the Storm Society. Mu Shiyu said suddenly.
"What did you say?"
"I said they were all members of the Storm, and they were all in the same department. ”
Although Xia Ming felt that something was wrong, he still said, "That's good." ”
"Sullos joined the Storm on his own, and it is said that he received a special invitation card from the students, but for some reason, he chose the Storm Club instead. ”
Xia Ming said: "I think it might be because of me... The student council and the storm will be in competition, which is a more euphemistic statement, and I heard that they often gather to fight?"
Mu Siyu rolled his eyes and said, "What is it called gathering crowds to fight... It's called a hunting game. ”
Xia Ming asked, "Isn't it fun?"
Mu Shiyu said, "Have you ever shaved the bark?"
Xia Ming said: "No. ”
Mu Shiyu said: "It's about the same as peeling the bark of a tree, it's about speed, and of course they can get a monster if they have the ability." ”
Getting a monster sounds really exciting.
The so-called monsters are actually those beasts that live outside the wall, and their appearance is a little strange, and their faces are a little more ferocious. A hundred years old a boss is born, and their boss will lead them to attack the walls of humanity and try to climb over it.
But the walls have been standing for 800 years, and it is only the inhabitants who live on the edge of the walls that they have passed on to them, and in the world near the central capital, people know more about them from the scriptures.
In ancient language, it was expressed as "Troll" in Lune, which translates into modern words as cavemen, monsters by hunters, and devils by apostles, a very religious name.
Although they are all members of this world, the conflict between human beings and them can be reflected in myths and legends.
They met Zhang Monkey Shi Yu Minghong and several others in the hall, members of the rookie group in the water skiing.
They were stunned at each other's eyes, because they saw in their eyes completely different tiredness and refreshment.
At the same time, they asked, "What are you going to do?"
Xia Ming said first: "We still have to make up the exam, don't you need it?"
It's not that Xia Ming underestimates Zhang Monkey, even Su Luo can plant a heel here, Xia Ming doesn't think that Zhang Monkey is more clever than Su Luosi.
"What re-exam?" Zhang Monkey suddenly remembered something and said, "I know. We weren't there in December. ”
"What about you?" Xia Ming asked.
"Brother Ming, you don't understand. He stepped in and whispered, "Have you ever heard of a mysterious organization?" ”
Xia Ming was stunned for a moment and asked, "What organization?"
"It's the student union intelligence department that often helps us deliver letters. Zhang Monkey said, "You don't know that they have the ability to transfer points, I discussed with them before going out, and found someone to take the test for us, no, this semester's points will be obtained, and the price is only to pay a little points to the other party." ”
"I'm telling you, don't spread the word!"
Zhang Monkey looked at Mu Siyu behind Xia Ming and reminded him carefully.
Mu Shiyu said: "I heard it all!"
Zhang Monkey was really frightened, and hurriedly said: "Don't don't, everyone is in a group." ”
"Who's with you? She patted the badge on her left arm, "Storm, you're done." ”
Zhang Monkey hurriedly pulled Xia Ming and said, "I don't care, Brother Ming, you have to help me persuade her, without the student union, we really can't live." ”
Xia Ming could only say helplessly: "She didn't hear it." ”
Zhang Monkey suddenly sighed, and Xia Ming asked, "What's wrong?" ”
Zhang Monkey said: "I heard that this morning, there was a mysterious boss who bought the Snow Falcon Intelligence Department, and they flew to say that they were going to suspend this business, and they didn't know when it would resume." ”
Xia Ming was a little familiar with the word snow falcon when he heard it, and seemed to remember something, but the words in his mouth blurted out, "What business?"
"It's the business of transferring points, you know, we stupid people survive in the academy, but it's up to them. Zhang Monkey said, "I heard that the boss's name is actually Herrick, which is a bit similar to the name they used in Sanan, and I don't know who the character is, but he has cut off our way of life, if you want to know who he is, you will definitely not be able to spare him." ”
Xia Ming was stunned for a long time, isn't Herrick him? In fact, he is just too lazy to poke at the bag of money all day long, heavy, and the thief is not willing to ask for it. But he seems to have done a move to smash his brother's shop. After a while, he asked, "Where did you hear about it?" ”
Zhang Monkey said, "What I saw on the public intelligence headlines was published by Ya Yu, the intelligence organization that specializes in opposing the student union. ”
Xia Ming scratched his head and said, "You don't have to believe this kind of news. ”
While eating, Mu Shiyu whispered to him: "This may be a daily fight between two big societies, you'd better not get involved, for you, tempering your strength is the most important." ”
Xia Ming thanked her for the reminder, but he also told her, "I've been caught up in it because I'm Herrick." ”
Mu Shiyu's eyes widened in surprise.
Xia Ming said: "I actually just handed over my money to them for safekeeping, I didn't do anything."
Mu Siyu immediately moved away from him a little, "Then from now on, we are enemies." ”
Xia Ming frowned, and hurriedly leaned closer and said, "No, no, no, I'm a traitor." ”
Mu Shiyu turned his face sideways and said indifferently: "Look down on the traitor." ”
"It's okay, just take me with you when you form a team.."
Xia Ming, who returned to the dormitory, sat on the bed in a daze, his mind full of the pair of wings holding spears.
He suddenly rolled out of bed and took the badge of the student council from the table, only the rudimentary sword crossed, and the olive leaf around the border symbolized the Peace Society.
Wait a minute.. The knife is the hunter's hunting knife, but what is the sword? Could it be that in the history of hunters, they also used the sword?
No, no, the student council was founded in the year 790 of the territorial calendar, when hunters could not use swords, hunters originated from the knights of order under the throne of the king of the round table, the king of the round table led the knights to unify the territory, those knights with swords, knives or guns, it is possible.
But when the hunters were finally founded, they abandoned the bulky swords and the inflexible weapons of long-range warfare, such as guns and spears, in favor of knives.
And what would the meaning of this sword appear in the coat of arms of the large department of the academy?
He remembered the intelligence king, and remembered what Zhang Monkey said today, so he tried to write a letter to them.
On the knife stand in front of the wall, a gray puppet appeared to be asleep with its eyes closed. As Xia Ming turned his head, it also opened its eyes with a sense of feeling, and as soon as he waved, the puppet automatically flew towards him.
It's called artificial intelligence, something that can understand what you mean with a single thought.
However, ordinary people don't have this thing, it comes from the hands of senior engineers of the academy, and the price is not ordinarily expensive, it is more advanced than the "letter feather" used by the executive high-level. It was only because they went to carry out the task of "hunting the night" that the academy specially gave one to each of them in order to ensure their safety.
Xia Ming is going to give him a name... It's called Xiao Ming..
