Li Yan looked at Chu Bai curiously and asked, "It's you, why are you here?"

"I'm also here to take over the mission." Chu Bai said.

Li Yan nodded thoughtfully.

Chu Bai awakened much later than his peers, and it was very close to the college entrance examination. He must be under a lot of pressure, and it is normal to want to increase his strength through the tasks of the Hunter Association.

Li Yan said to Chu Bai: "You have just awakened not long ago, so it is best not to get involved in those highly dangerous tasks."

Chu Bai smiled: "I understand, this time I just took on a mission to defeat the giant rat to practice my skills. There is no danger."

The two chatted casually for a few more words, and Chu Bai left the Hunter Association building.

In the afternoon cultural class, Chu Bai directly asked Wei Shanyue for a leave.

The cultural classes in Lingwu class are not very strict. As long as the cultural scores can reach the undergraduate level, it will not have any impact on the entrance to Lingwu University.

Therefore, except for those whose academic performance is really poor and will attend class seriously, other students will mostly take leave to use this time to exercise and enhance their own strength.

Moreover, Chu Bai was transferred from the top class in the cultural class. Wei Shanyue was not worried about Chu Bai's cultural performance at all and readily approved the leave.

Chu Bai was not in a hurry to complete the task, but first went to Lao Wang's second-hand store next door to assemble a few more demon-breaking arrows and a bundle of ordinary arrows.

The Demon-Breaking Arrow is a consumable item. After being shot four or five times, the Demon-Breaking Power attached to it will dissipate and turn into a normal arrow.

Then, Chu Bai opened the file Wei Shanyue sent him and looked at it.

It contains a basic method of tempering the body, as well as basic combat skills with common cold weapons such as swords, guns and sticks.

After Chu Bai carefully read this method called "Steel-like Iron Body Forging Method", he began to try to control the spiritual power in the body according to the above method.

Spiritual power originated from the spiritual power seeds in the body and traveled throughout the body. After about two hours, Chu Bai's body faintly exuded an iron-gray luster.

"It doesn't seem too difficult to get started." Chu Bai clenched his fist and felt that his strength had increased a bit.

Chu Bai glanced at his own panel.

[Name: Chu Bai]

[Occupation: First level·Ghost Swordsman]

[Spiritual Power: Open Spirit Level (Lv.1)]

[Spiritual Skill: Ghost Slaying (Introduction)]

[School Combat Skills: Steel-like Iron Body Forging Method (Introduction)]

[Strengthening Points: 0]

Except for the genre combat skills column, everything else remains unchanged.

Similarly, there is a light green plus sign behind the steel-like-iron forging method.

"Body training is easy to get started, but it takes a lot of effort and time to practice it to a high level. Except for close combat professions, other professions will not spend too much time on it.

However, if I want to reduce or even eliminate the side effects of increasing spiritual power, practicing physical exercise is essential.

Moreover, if I use strengthening points to strengthen, I can definitely practice the body-building technique to a very high level in a short period of time, which is a big advantage."

Chu Bai took a look at his current strengthening points, which were still zero, and finally decided to leave.

After changing his clothes and carrying a backpack filled with crossbows and crossbow arrows, Chu Bai came to a dilapidated old street in the South District with a standard long knife.

Chu Bai remembered that there was a sewer entrance near this street.

Hiiragi City was built before the Cataclysm Era, and the sewers at that time were far less complicated.

After several expansions and the impact of demonic tides during the Catastrophic Era, various shelters and other underground facilities were mixed with the previous sewer and drainage systems, forming the complex underground world of Hiiragi City today.

There are no lighting facilities in the underground world, and it is dark. Only the yellow beam of light from a miner's hat worn by Chu Bai illuminates the surroundings.

Stepping on the wet ground, Chu Bai moved forward all the way.

After a while, Chu Bai stopped moving forward, lowered his miner's hat to prevent the light from shining directly in front of him, and listened attentively.

In the silent sewer world, there is no external noise, which makes Chu Bai's hearing more sensitive.

Not far in front of Chu Bai, there was a rustling sound.

The sound gradually became clearer from far to near.

Chu Bai cocked an arrow, and a cold light flew out from the crossbow in his hand.

In the darkness, sharp screams sounded.

Chu Bai kept loading arrows and fired one after another before the giant rat got close.

Just a few dozen meters in front of Chu Bai, there were six giant sewer rats the size of huskies, two of which were nailed to the ground by continuous arrows.

But the remaining ones had already nimbly crossed the distance of tens of meters and pounced towards Chu Bai.

Chu Bai didn't expect to be able to deal with the giant rats by relying on arrows. In the darkness, the accuracy of the arrows was greatly reduced, and he was not at an advantage in the first place.

Chu Bai put down the crossbow, looked at the several gray-haired giant rats rushing toward him, and held the handle of the long knife.

The dark red sword flashed, and the spiritual skill Ghost Slash drew a dark red streak through the air and struck the neck of a giant rat at the front.

Blood spurts!

Chu Bai did not rush forward, but instead took a few steps back, raised his foot and kicked another gray-haired giant rat that was charging towards him. He turned his long knife, and the blade passed by with a red light, cutting off a large piece of meat.

The claws and teeth of giant sewer rats contain toxins. Although you can take an antidote to detoxify, the antidote also costs money.

In order not to spend extra money to buy the antidote, Chu Bai fought steadily, fought and retreated, and finally chopped down these giant gray-haired rats to the ground, and then hit them one by one.

"After becoming an awakened person, the physical quality has indeed undergone a qualitative change." Chu Bai was harvesting the materials from the gray-haired giant rat while estimating his physical strength after awakening.

If my physical fitness was only that of an ordinary person before, now I am afraid that my physical fitness has reached the limit of the human body, and is stronger than those national athletes who have undergone systematic training in previous lives.

Of course, Chu Bai is not yet invulnerable and can ignore thermal weapons. Even when faced with the teeth and claws of the giant sewer rat, he has to avoid its sharp edges.

He can deal with five or six giant rats at the same time, but if there are more, it won't work.

Next, Chu Bai continued to go deep into the sewer.

He found that the further back he went, the greater the number of individual groups of rats he encountered.

From six at the beginning, to more than a dozen or twenty later.

These giant rats were running rampant in the sewers. Chu Bai could only pick out a few lone ones, kill ten of them, and then hurriedly left the sewers.

On the dilapidated street, a sewer manhole cover was opened, and a dirty Chu Bai climbed up from below.

Several hours have passed since I went back and forth to the sewer.

Chu Bai looked at the time and saw that it was already seven o'clock in the evening.
Chapter completed!
