Chapter 38 The Day I Was Robbed
Chapter 38 The Day I Was Robbed
Among these twenty-odd people, a few had invited Lin Yuan before the exam began, but after hearing that Lin Yuan only had an F-level ability, they...
They quickly moved away, fearing that Lin Yuan would entangle them.
Lin Yuan had easily killed the demons surrounding them, leaving them feeling awkward and embarrassed.
Even Jiang Ran was speechless, his round face showing an expression that went somewhere between "I know this person" and "Am I dreaming?"
Song Zhiyi's last arrow was still on the bowstring, but she did not shoot it.
She looked at Lin Yuan, her gaze moving from his dark purple spear to his face, and then from his face to the corpses of demons scattered on the ground.
Then she slowly lowered the bow.
"First tier, ninth level".
Her voice wasn't loud, but everyone in the quiet open space could hear it clearly.
"It's not Tier 1, Level 4. It's Tier 1, Level 7, Peak."
The surrounding examinees all turned to look at her, then all turned back to look at Lin Yuan.
Lin Yuan did not deny it.
He hoisted Zidian back onto his shoulder and walked up to Jiang Ran.
The claw marks on the round-faced boy's arm were still bleeding, but the wounds were not deep. They were made by the claws of a gray jackal and had not damaged any bones or tendons.
Lin Yuan took out the two bottles of healing spray from his storage bag and tossed one to him.
"One spray stops the bleeding, two sprays relieve the pain, and three sprays help minor wounds heal. Tier 2 quality, 8,000 per bottle. Use it sparingly."
Jiang Ran hurriedly caught it, looked down at the bottle of healing spray in her hand, and then looked up at Lin Yuan.
"you......"
"I'm here to take the test," Lin Yuan said, "but I haven't told you my true level."
Jiang Ran's lips moved slightly.
He wanted to say "You lied to me," but he couldn't bring himself to say it. The other person wasn't lying to him; they just didn't say it.
Moreover, if it weren't for them, those twenty-odd people would have been torn to shreds by the monsters by now.
Chen Mo pushed up his glasses and said in a low voice, "Thank you."
The twenty-odd examinees behind him then realized what was happening and thanked him in unison.
"Thank you," "Thanks so much," "You're amazing," "Brother, which school are you from?" The voices rose and fell.
Lin Yuan waved his hand, indicating that there was no need to thank him. He looked at Song Zhiyi.
"How did you get involved with so many monsters?"
Song Zhiyi shook her head.
"We didn't cause this. These monsters gathered on their own, surrounding us from all directions at the same time, as if they were being driven by something."
Lin Yuan frowned slightly.
It was no coincidence that more than thirty monsters of different races attacked a group of examinees at the same time.
There must be something driving them to attack humans simultaneously.
He recalled the three red hoodies he had seen on the streets of Hangzhou the previous evening.
Wearing a coat on a hot day, completely covering their face.
In Donghai City, the Blood Eye Cult was also able to control monsters through runes.
Is there any connection between the two?
He didn't say it.
Making statements without evidence will only cause panic.
"What are your plans next?" he asked Jiang Ran.
Jiang Ran sprayed a healing spray, and the bleeding from the wound on her arm had stopped.
He returned the spray to Lin Yuan, who pushed it back, saying it was a gift for him.
Jiang Ran held the spray bottle and thought for a moment.
"We're planning to retreat and set up camp closer to the entrance. We've encountered far too many monsters this time. If you hadn't come, someone might have already pressed the distress button."
Lin Yuan nodded.
"The outer area is safer. You should all stay together and not get separated again."
He hoisted Zidian onto his shoulder and turned to leave.
"Lin Yuan!" Jiang Ran called out to him.
Lin Yuan turned around.
A round-faced boy stood in the middle of a group of examinees, his arm wrapped in bandages, which someone pulled out of a backpack.
He looked at Lin Yuan with a serious expression on his round face.
"After the exam, it's Pian'erchuan, my treat."
Lin Yuan smiled.
"Add a serving of Dongpo pork."
"Two more servings!"
Lin Yuan waved his hand, lightning exploded beneath his feet, and his figure disappeared into the depths of the dense forest.
Song Zhiyi stared in that direction and remained silent for a long time.
"Han Feng from Hangzhou No. 5 High School is at the fifth level of the first tier," she suddenly said, her tone calm.
"A-grade spirit sword, a weapon type, has been touted by Hangzhou media as the strongest candidate this year."
Jiang Ran turned to look at her.
Song Zhiyi withdrew her gaze and put the last arrow back into the quiver.
"The strongest my ass."
After bidding farewell to Jiang Ran and the others, Lin Yuan continued westward.
It wasn't that he was determined to go to dangerous places, but the fact that the bone tempering progress was stuck at 99% on the system panel made him feel uneasy.
Yesterday in the hotel training room, even the combined effects of ten top-grade Bone Tempering Pills couldn't budge that spot in the slightest, indicating that the problem wasn't with the pills' potency.
An opportunity is needed.
Opportunities are things you can't wait for at home; you can only find them in battle.
He walked for more than an hour, killing several more mindless monsters along the way.
A level 2, second-tier Azure Mane Wolf King, larger than an ordinary Azure Mane Wolf, with dark blue fur and remnants of wind-type abilities on its claws.
Lin Yuan took about three minutes to finish it off. With the Sands of Time slowing him down and the Thunderous Thrust, he pierced the throat with a single shot.
[Defeat the Tier 2, Level 2 monster, Azure Mane Wolf King, Ability Points +72, Score +10]
[Proficiency in "Thunder Across the Nine Heavens" +8]
[Sands of Time Proficiency +5]
664 ability points remaining, 82 points accumulated.
He cut off the wolf fangs of the Green Mane Wolf King and put them into his storage bag. The fangs of a second-tier wolf king could fetch a good price.
Then I found a big tree to lean against and sat down, unscrewed the kettle and took a few sips of water.
Nine-Round Bone Tempering's endurance is indeed strong; he fought for several hours without his breathing becoming disordered.
However, the consumption of lightning-type abilities is real. He has already taken two Rejuvenation Pills, and his source power has recovered to about 70%.
Just as they were resting, they heard footsteps coming from the woods.
The footsteps weren't those of a monster; they were those of a person.
Moreover, there were several people walking towards this place, stepping on fallen leaves and withered branches, making no attempt to hide.
Lin Yuan tightened the kettle, placed Zidian horizontally on his lap, and looked up.
Nine people emerged one after another from behind the bushes.
The leader was a tall boy wearing a black, tight-fitting combat uniform with the Hangzhou No. 9 Middle School badge pinned to his chest.
He wasn't bad-looking, but he had an air of "I'm the best in the world" about him, and he walked with his chin slightly raised, as if he was always looking down at people.
The eight people following behind him were dressed differently, armed differently, and possessed different levels of cultivation.
Lin Yuan glanced at the system panel and saw that the highest level was the leader, a B-rank fire element, first tier, level 5.
The remaining seven people are three at the fourth level of the first tier and four at the third level of the first tier.
Among the test takers in Hangzhou, this lineup certainly has the right to dominate.
The nine people stopped in front of Lin Yuan, spreading out in a semi-circle, subtly surrounding him.
