Entrance to the Sand Sea Secret Realm
All students from the eight Royal High Schools in the city came.
Xia Ruan saw many acquaintances, including junior high school classmate Lei Zihao, competition opponent Mu Anning, good friend Chen Siqi, etc.
Lei Zihao was supposed to study in Yangshi No. 1 Middle School, but for some reason he went to Yangshi No. 2 Middle School.
Mu Anning also noticed Xia Ruan’s gaze, and their eyes met, full of fighting spirit.
Mu Anning: I won’t lose again this time! Chen Siqi happily waved to Xia Ruan, and Xia Ruan also waved to her.
Although the two have not seen each other for a long time, their relationship remains as good as ever.
The entrance to the secret realm was filled with soldiers wearing yellow-brown jackets. Next to each of them was a canine beast, and they also had firearms on their waists.
According to Yuan Xiaoqing’s explanation: This group of soldiers will also enter the secret realm with them.
When a student activates the rescue device, the nearest military personnel will go to the rescue to ensure the safety of the students to the greatest extent.
Since it is the final assessment, there is no charge to enter the Sand Sea Secret Realm. You only need to check the imperial certificate.
The purpose of checking the imperial certificate is to prevent some people from sneaking into the secret realm. This kind of thing has been learned a long time ago.
Yangshi No. 1 Middle School, as the strongest representative of Yangshi, was the first to bear the brunt of entering the secret realm.
Xia Ruan, who had long been discussed with his friends, rode on the back of the Red-winged Burning Sky Tiger and disappeared from everyone’s eyes.
Ouyang Zhi: “I’m leaving too, please be careful!”
Luo Xiao: “Don’t worry! I will definitely protect the little fat man!”
Lu Dongbao: If it weren’t for your strong attack power, I wouldn’t have beaten you!
Soon, all the students in Yangshi No. 1 Middle School disappeared into the vast sea of sand.
The soldiers who followed them into the secret realm also dispersed and moved forward according to the direction they had planned.
……
After flying for more than ten minutes, Xia Ruan asked the Red-winged Burning Sky Tiger to find a place to land.
The hunt begins!
The results of this final assessment are determined by the points and monster crystal cores obtained by each student, and students are not prohibited from plundering each other during the assessment.
Therefore, you must not only guard against the attacks of monsters, but also pay attention to your opponent’s attacks.
Xia Ruan summoned Gui Wencai and the paper substitute, and the paper substitute automatically returned to Xia Ruan’s wrist.
The automatic body protection skill of the paper substitute has been transformed into a magical skill called [Life Recovery].
At the same time, the attributes of the paper substitute also changed from no attributes to time-based.
Xia Ruan guessed that the three royal beasts should have gone to a place with time attributes that night, otherwise it would be difficult to explain the changes in the paper substitutes.
Compared with the level gain of Red-winged Burning Sky Tiger and Ghost Wencai, Paper Stand Talent has grown the most.
[Life recovery]: Use the power of time to restore the life of the messenger or beast. The recovery effect is determined by the strength of the power of time.
The health regeneration skill proficiency has also returned to entry level.
What surprised Xia Ruan even more was that the experience points required to improve the skill of life recovery increased exponentially.
Originally, it only took 100 points to upgrade from entry level to proficiency level, but when it was the turn of the stand-in paper man, it cost 1,000 points.
A big money swallower! Moreover, items with time attributes are hard to come by. In the future, the paper substitute will most likely have to rely on experience points to improve it.
Fortunately, Xia Ruan has a panel. If another envoy contracts a paper substitute, he can only put it up to gather dust.
Xia Ruan is not planning to use the experience points on the paper substitute at the moment. There are too many dangers in the secret realm, so she has to keep them for emergencies.
But now is not the time to think about such things, it is time to harvest.
……
Xia Ruan arrived at the outskirts of a stone forest, where nothing but stones were sand.
Gui Wencai was exploring the surroundings for the presence of monsters, while the Red-winged Burning Sky Tiger was paying attention to the surroundings and was always ready to attack.
Wind cut!
A rattlesnake was cut in two by the force of the wind.
Rattlesnake: An ordinary monster that moves fast and has no attack power except its fangs.
Whoosh! Another rattlesnake was cut into two pieces, and the sand around the snake’s body instantly became bloody.
Red-winged Burning Sky Tiger: “Ouch!”
【wrong! there’s noise! 】
Gui Wencai also echoed: “Pippi!”
[It’s the sound of a rattlesnake! 】
Xia Ruan: “Is it possible that we dug out the rattlesnake’s nest?”
As soon as he finished speaking, countless rattlesnakes rushed out of the stone forest in front, wagging their tails, and their targets were Xia Ruan and the others.
“Fuck! Prepare to attack!”
Xia Ruan took a few steps back slightly, but was not too far away from the two beasts.
The Red-winged Burning Sky Tiger directly threw out a perfection-level spark, and its body instantly shrunk several times.
The larger the body, the greater the resistance against this group of rattlesnakes.
boom! The rattlesnakes that rushed in front were directly roasted into skewers, one after another.
Obviously, this group of extremely dead rattlesnakes is just an appetizer.
really!
There were bursts of noises in the stone forest, and with a roar of “hiss, hiss”, a giant rattlesnake, which was more than 20 meters long and about 1 meter wide, flew out with countless followers.
King Rattlesnake!
The blood-red crown on the snake’s head proves that this rattlesnake king is close to an advanced level.
Xia Ruan cursed secretly in his heart: A good start?
Who can be as lucky as me!
The Red Wing Burning Sky Tiger can compete with the Rattlesnake King, but there are still a bunch of shrimp soldiers and crabs that need to be dealt with.
Xia Ruan originally wanted to tell the Red-winged Burning Sky Tiger to retreat, but when he looked up, he saw the Red-winged Burning Sky Tiger flying into the air.
Yes!
The Red-Winged Burning Sky Tiger can fly!
Xia Ruan: “Xiaoyi just hit him in the air!”
Gui Wencai returned to Xia Ruan to protect her safety.
As for the group of rattlesnakes, a single Red-winged Burning Sky Tiger can kill them.
Except for King Rattlesnake, there is nothing to fear.
The red-winged Burning Sky Tiger waved its wings and set off gusts of wind.
He held a bunch of Sky Cannons in his hands, flicked them hard, and flew towards the group of rattlesnakes.
Crackling!
The rattlesnakes sang a lament.
Xia Ruan sniffed: The roasted snake smells a bit fragrant.
The Rattlesnake King was furious and stuck out his tongue wildly at the red-winged Burning Sky Tiger in the air.
But he can’t fly if he can’t stand it! More and more rattlesnakes were killed in the Sky-Speed Cannon of the Red-winged Burning Sky Tiger. The Rattlesnake King suddenly turned the snake’s head and stared at Xia Ruan and Gui Wencai.
Rattlesnake King: If I can’t hit the sky, why can’t I hit you?
Xia Ruan thought: No! Gui Wencai also noticed the Rattlesnake King’s actions, but he was not panicked.
Facing the menacing Rattlesnake King, he dodged and escaped with Xia Ruan, leaving only the Rattlesnake King with a confused look on his face.
Rattlesnake King: Where are the people? The red-winged Burning Sky Tiger had already flown directly above the Rattlesnake King. The flames condensed on the tiger’s claws, exuding a fiery aura.
Falling from the sky!
The red-winged Burning Sky Tiger looked down and struck straight at the Rattlesnake King with his fist raised.
The Rattlesnake King immediately moved his body away, but he still couldn’t avoid the flame fist.
The flame fist hit the middle of the Rattlesnake King’s body hard, bang!
The scales on the Rattlesnake King’s appearance were blown away by the impact, and a big hole appeared in his body.
“Hiss!”
Although it did not hit the Rattlesnake King within seven inches, it still seriously injured him.
Xia Ruan: “Xiao Yi! Hit the snake seven inches away!”
Red-winged Fentianhu did not answer, thinking:
What are you doing? Just beat him up and that’s it.
After reminding the Red-winged Burning Sky Tiger, Xia Ruan reacted.
The Red-winged Burning Sky Tiger shouldn’t know how long seven inches is? The Rattlesnake King is also timid and afraid of getting into trouble. He wants to run away when he sees that he cannot defeat the Red-Winged Burning Sky Tiger.
While the Red-winged Burning Sky Tiger was in a daze, he quickly waggled his tail and rushed towards the stone forest.
As long as we can return to Stone Forest, we will be safe.
In an instant, the speed of the rattlesnake king’s escape suddenly slowed down.
Although it was still very fast, it was already fast enough for the Red-winged Burning Sky Tiger to catch up with him in a meteoric stride.
The Flame Fist + Fierce Claw directly cut off a section of the Rattlesnake King’s tail. The pain caused the Rattlesnake King to twist the snake’s body continuously, causing pieces of dust to rise around it.
But the Rattlesnake King was not willing to die like this, and the pressure of being a king instantly filled the entire battlefield.
After being struck like this, the Red-winged Burning Sky Tiger’s offensive movements were paused.
But the ghost writing didn’t stop.
Ghostly literary talent: “Sugar-coated bullets”
Hit the rattlesnake within seven inches.
Red-winged Burning Sky Tiger doesn’t know seven inches, but Gui Wen can calculate it.
Boom! The Rattlesnake King’s huge head hit the ground, his eyes were still open, but he had lost his breath.
The sugar-coated cannonball hit seven inches accurately, ending King Rattlesnake’s life.
Once the king rattlesnake dies, the other rattlesnakes scatter.
After the Red-winged Burning Sky Tiger killed several rattlesnakes with higher combat power, it stopped pursuing them.
This value is not worth his waste of attack power.
……
Xia Ruan put the scoreboard Gui Wencai got from the Rattlesnake King into the storage ring, a total of 500 points.
King Rattlesnake is indeed a big guy! The teachers must not have expected that the rattlesnake would be killed at the beginning.
After packing up his trophies, Xia Ruan looked at the stone forest.
There are many special places in the desert, especially where there are high-level monsters, there must be treasures.
How could Xia Ruan miss this? …
This stone forest is the territory of the Rattlesnake King.
With the aura of the Rattlesnake King, Xia Ruan moved forward smoothly.
Even if they encountered some rattlesnakes, they were all killed in time by the Red-winged Fentianhu and Gui Wencai.
More than ten minutes later.
Xia Ruan finally arrived at the core of the stone forest.
This place is really hard to find, and the Red-winged Fentianhu almost lost his nose before he found it.
Xia Ruan: In the future, I will have the opportunity to contract a beast that can hunt for treasure! An underground cave appeared in the middle of the stone forest, which must be where the Rattlesnake King lives.
Gui Wencai opened the way, followed by Xia Ruan and Red Wing Fentianhu.
Inside the cave.
This cave is very large, nearly 40 meters in length, width and height.
There was nothing in the cave except a pool of milky white liquid, and it was eerily empty.
Ghost Wencai: [Stone stalactite, taking it can enhance the physical fitness of the charioteer and improve the strength of the charioteer. 】
Xia Ruan looked at the stalactite in front of him with bright eyes, and he was worried that his body was not strong enough!
It really comes to whatever you want.
It’s not that I have bad luck at all, but I think I’m very lucky.
Presumably King Rattlesnake took stalactite to grow to this point.
Xia Ruan took out the jade bottle in the storage ring and started collecting stalactites. He collected 5 bottles before finishing.
Xia Ruan glanced at the remaining stalactites and said to the two beasts:
“I’ll take it first, you guys protect me!”
Red-winged Burning Sky Tiger/Ghost Wencai: [Received! 】
Xia Ruan drank the stalactite in one sip. It had no taste and was bland, almost like boiled water.
After a minute, my body started to heat up and my face started to sweat.
Xia Ruan couldn’t help but sit on the ground, and the feeling of heat in her body became more and more intense.
Xia Ruan’s brain was almost confused! I don’t know how long it took before Xia Ruan, who was already sweating profusely, opened her closed eyes.
Seeing Xia Ruan regaining consciousness, Red-winged Fentianhu and Guiwen hurried forward and asked with concern.
Xia Ruan calmed the two beasts and looked at his hands.
I picked up a stone nearby, squeezed it gently, and it broke into pieces!
The stalactites doubled Xia Ruan’s strength, and her body’s strength also increased.
The force that would have hurt her before could no longer hurt her.
Xia Ruan stood up and handed a bottle of stalactite and a beast to Red Wing Burning Sky Tiger and Ghost Wencai.
“Improve your strength first!”
Red-wing Fentianhu and Gui Wencai took turns drinking the stalactite.
The performance of the two beasts was much better than that of Xia Ruan, but after more than ten minutes, both beasts improved.
After collecting his things, Xia Ruan left the cave and started a new exploration.
……
“The mission target has appeared!”
“receive!”
“After completing this task, you will be free!”
Ren Kui read the secret message he received, took a deep breath, then stood up and said to his teammates: “I received a rescue here, I’ll go there.”
Teammate: “Are you okay? Do you want me to come with you?”
Ren Kui: “No, just stay here. Maybe some students will ask for help.”
After hearing what Ren Kui said, the comrade agreed without any doubt.
……
5 minutes later.
When he was a little further away, Ren Kui looked at the secret message in his hand, which showed a few words: Oasis No. 13! …
the other side.
Except for the big guy Rattlesnake King that Xia Ruan met at the beginning, all the subsequent encounters he encountered were monsters that were far inferior to the Red Winged Burning Sky Tiger.
The strength of these monsters is at most the same as that of Gui Wencai. Sometimes it is not the Red Winged Burning Sky Tiger’s turn to take action, and Gui Wencai will finish them off.
Time passed little by little, and Xia Ruan finally saw the first oasis.
Oasis No. 13.
The area of Oasis No. 13 is not large, it can even be said to be very small. It is a circular oasis about 50 meters in diameter.
But Xia Ruan doesn’t think it’s small.
Xia Ruan: Finally I can see some green!
After finding a safe place to sit down, Red Wing Fentianhu and Gui Wencai also collapsed beside Xia Ruan, enjoying the rare coolness.
Especially Gui Wencai, who is inherently intolerant of heat.
“Let’s have a barbecue! We’re hungry!”
Xia Ruan said as he took out the seasoning and monster meat from the storage ring. The monster meat was cut from the corpse of the previous monster.
Xia Ruan skillfully set up the stage and asked Red Wing Fentianhu to cut the meat with Fengqi, while Gui Wencai skewered the meat.
The barbecue started.
The red-winged Burning Sky Tiger stretched out its claws, and a spark appeared in the center of his claws.
“Bigger! Wider! Smaller fire…”
Following Xia Ruan’s command, the flames in the heart of the Red-winged Burning Sky Tiger’s claws are also constantly changing.
After finally meeting Xia Ruan’s request, the Red-winged Burning Sky Tiger breathed a sigh of relief.
“Pippi! Pay attention to the heat!”
Ghost Wencai: … Just rely on us to pamper you! Xia Ruan sprinkled the barbecue ingredients, picked up a skewer of barbecue and tasted it. It tasted okay.
Half an hour later, Xia Ruan was finally full.
“Xiaoyi, please pay attention to the heat next time! It will taste better if it is browned a little.”
Red-winged Burning Sky Tiger: “Ouch~”
【Okay~】
Just when one person and two animals were in harmony, Ren Kui finally arrived! Feeling the stranger’s aura, Red Wing Fentianhu’s eyes changed.
【somebody is coming! 】
