The next day came, just after dawn, Chu Ru knocked on the door of Luo Nian's room.
Different from the room where resources are stored, the door of the training room is made of special ore and is also ten meters high. Compared with the metal door, it is slightly quaint.
They are both gates, but their functions are also different. Metal gates focus on defense and can withstand high-intensity energy attacks, while stone gates are more conducive to energy collection and assist in cultivation.
Of course, such a heavy stone door must not be knocked by hand. The sound sounds like some kind of regular energy pulse, but it is no different from knocking on the door.
Chu Ru was polite and did not open the door directly. She already regarded Luo Nian as the owner of the house.
In fact, Luo Nian had woken up early. He had just been sitting cross-legged on the bed, closing his eyes to relax, and carefully feeling the energy fluctuations in the room. Even if the magic circle on the bed was not activated, the energy density in the room was far higher than that outside. It was really worthy of his reputation.
It is the mysterious and desirable Ashe Bay.
Hearing someone knocking on the door, Luo Nian came back from his meditation. Then he reluctantly left the stone bed and walked straight towards the stone door. After he reached the door frame, he pushed the simple stone door slightly.
Magical energy.
"Click!" After a slight sound, the stone door opened in response.
When Luo Nian stuck his head out the door, a charming face instantly appeared in his eyes. Seeing this, Luo Nian smiled unconsciously.
Seeing Luo Nian with a smile on his face, Chu Ru also showed a faint smile. His clear eyes were like stars in the sky, and he was really beautiful and beautiful.
Luo Nian's smile continued, and he said first, "Good morning! Chu Ru."
"Good morning! Brother Luo, how is Ai Xi Bay? Is it in line with your habits?" Chu Ru asked softly, her voice was very sweet.
"Well, practicing here is simply getting twice the result with half the effort." Luo Nian was very excited at first, and then his expression became depressed again, "But I am not perfect enough, and I am wasting resources, hey!"
"It doesn't matter, you have to take it step by step. No one can reach the sky in one step, not even the genius of the giant volcano. Um, I'm talking about the chosen one, hehe!" Chu Ru covered her face and smiled, looking extremely cute.
Then he pouted, "Let's go! Go to the academy to take over the mission!"
Aishi Bay, like Luoka Bay, is across from Libra Academy. The two of them arrived at Libra Academy within a short distance.
Although it has just dawned, many students have already arrived at the college, and most of them are gathered in the college's resource building.
Since the college replenishes supplies on time every morning, there are some sought-after supplies, such as energy replenishing liquid, low-level strengthening liquid, low-level protective array, etc.
These high-quality and cheap items will be swept away if you are slow, and you will have to wait until the next day to refresh them. Because of this, many people will queue here at midnight. It is really crazy to think about it.
.
Only one team is allowed to go out of the hunting area at a time. This rule is to avoid malicious competition between different teams outside the city. Therefore, the team that has priority to go out must wait for the team to come back before the next team can set off again.
Since the peak hunting period is at noon, Chu Ru chose to go hunting in the early morning to avoid the long wait.
Under the leadership of Chu Ru, the two came to a magnificent building. Although it was not as brilliant as the Resource Building, it was definitely magnificent.
The stone plaque of the building is engraved with five distinctive characters [Hunting Mission Area]. The fonts are golden yellow with a slight golden light, which is very conspicuous.
As the two of them walked into the lobby, the layout inside was clearly visible. Compared to the gorgeous Ashe Bay, this place was a bit plain.
The most eye-catching thing is undoubtedly a stone table in the front of the hall, about 3 meters long and 2 meters wide, with five metal instruments made of vibranium placed on it.
Perhaps because he arrived too early, there was no one else in the hall except a middle-aged man sitting in front of the stone table.
The man looked to be in his 50s, and he was tinkering with something with his head down.
When Luo Nian and Chu Ru walked to the table, the man put down the metal object in his hand.
Then he looked up at the two of them and said in a slightly serious voice, "Hey! In the body refining realm, you are so brave to go hunting so early!"
"Well, it's my first time hunting, I wonder what the explanation is here!" Luo Nian asked with a calm expression.
The man thought for a moment and said solemnly, "For novices, it is recommended to choose the first-level World of Warcraft area. Of course, there are also some people who want to challenge the limit and choose the second-level World of Warcraft area. But the results are not very optimistic. Everyone who goes there is...
Didn’t come back safely.”
"Since you are a team of two, you can only choose the team hunting mode. As for the difficulty, there are four types: low-level hunting mode, intermediate hunting mode, advanced hunting mode and purgatory-level hunting mode. It is up to you to choose."
"Then let's get a first-level senior. If it's you, I believe it can be done!" Chu Ru looked at Luo Nian aside with a smile, her words full of confidence.
"Bring me the mana stone issued by the academy, and I'll register it! The advanced hunting mode you chose requires hunting at least 40 first-order monsters above the advanced level. Of course, if it's a peak first-order monster, it only needs 20.
That’s it.” The man said calmly.
Then the two of them gave the magic stone in their hands to the middle-aged man.
When he swept Chu Ru's magic stone with a metal instrument, he was startled at first, and then his expression became panicked.
Immediately stammered, "I... I said... Miss Chu Ru, aren't you embarrassing me? The academy specifically allows you to form a team with students of any level. Why did you choose a G-demon attribute?"
Student, it will be difficult for us to handle this!"
Chu Ru looked disdainful and said sternly, "You don't have to worry about this. Our elders have already approved it."
Cold sweat broke out on Luo Nian's forehead. Unexpectedly, Chu Ru's identity was far beyond his expectation. Just the word eldest lady was enough to highlight her status.
"This... this... that won't work. I have to ask Elder Chu Feng myself." The middle-aged man's hands were trembling slightly.
Seeing that the man was about to stand up, Chu Ru took out a palm-sized translucent token from the storage space and slapped it on the stone table.
Then he said expressionlessly, "This is the elder's order. Elder Chu Feng gave it to me. Believe it or not!"
The man first held the elder's order in his hand and confirmed it over and over again.
It was not until the end that he breathed a sigh of relief and said with relief, "Okay, okay, I will help you register now. Even if the task is not completed, you can come back early. Just do what you can."
Even with the permission of the elders of Ash Bay, you can still see the middle-aged man trembling all over as he handles the hunting mission for them.
After the registration was completed, the middle-aged man gave the two of them a low-level magic stone the size of a coin, and then said, "This magic stone can be used to record the level and number of monsters you hunted during the hunting process. At the same time,
It is also the key to the hunting ground gate. The first-level Warcraft area is located on the east wall of Libra City. There are a total of 50 doors on the east wall."
“Doors 1-20 are single-person hunting areas, doors 21-40 are team hunting areas, and doors 41-50 are collective hunting areas. The four difficulty levels in the team hunting area correspond to adjacent areas from low to high.
There are five gates. When you arrive, you can choose any one at gates 31-35."
...
The east city wall is not too far from Libra College, only about 4 kilometers.
After leaving Libra Academy, the two quickly arrived in front of City Gate 31.
Looking at the towering city gate in front of him, Luo Nian was deeply shocked.
I couldn’t help but sigh, “Such a magnificent city gate is truly a masterpiece of craftsmanship.”
Chu Ru rolled her eyes and said with a bit of disdain, "Such a stone gate can't even withstand a fourth-level monster. No matter how tall it is, what's the use? Only a city gate made of pure magic array can be indestructible."
"Hey, it seems that I am ignorant. How much energy does a gate made of pure magic array consume?" Luo Nian shook his head, very puzzled.
Chu Ru chuckled proudly and said, "At that level, there is no shortage of energy. What is missing is the genius with the talent. I am going too far. Brother Luo, are you ready?"
Upon hearing this, Luo Nian immediately took out the golden bone sword from the storage space, waved it skillfully in the air a few times, and said impassionedly, "Let's get started!"
Chu Ru also took out the sky-blue fairy staff, pointed it diagonally in the air and said, "Let's go!"
As the stone door was slowly opened, an unobstructed view of the outside city appeared in front of the two people.
Different from the previous terrain where Li Tiangang and his second-level group hunted, there is a relatively flat Gobi Desert outside, which is somewhat similar to the outskirts of Luoka Town.
Looking around, apart from the gravel everywhere, there are no traces of any monster activity.
However, if you think about it, you will know that the first-level monsters are the easiest to hunt. Although the energy they can obtain is not much, it is indeed a good choice compared to the stronger second-order monsters.
Just about ten meters out of the stone gate, I saw many conspicuous protrusions on the ground. Each protrusion was about the same size, forming a sharp contrast with the surrounding flat terrain.
"Is this? A human skull?" Chu Ru's pupils dilated sharply, and a sense of fear instantly filled her heart.
Seeing this, Luo Nian walked to a protrusion closer to him and gently picked it with his bone sword.
In an instant, a human skull appeared in front of him.
Seeing such a scene, Luo Nian acted very calmly, not as trembling as Chu Ru.
Then he said calmly, "It seems that there is still some danger in this place. How about you go back first and I will complete the task."
Although Chu Ru looked fearful, she was not one to back down easily.
Immediately he frowned and said calmly, "Humph! If you want me to escape from the battlefield, there is no way. I am not afraid!"
"Well, if you encounter a powerful magical beast, you must open the protective circle as soon as possible!" Luo Nian said calmly. After all, he has never fought in actual combat, and his understanding of magical beasts is limited to books.
Chu Ru nodded and said that it was impossible not to be afraid. After all, she had never experienced combat in person, and the concept also existed on paper.
The two walked for more than a hundred meters, but there was still no trace of the Warcraft. The difference was that there were more and more protrusions on the ground. Some skulls were not even covered by dust. They were just straight and exposed on the surface. They looked quite big.
Creepy.
"There are at least hundreds of skeletons coming here. This place is really unsafe. Could it be that they are all G-demon cultivators like us?" Luo Nian asked doubtfully.
"That's right. People who have awakened, as long as they are not of the G-demon type, can easily kill first-level monsters if their energy is used properly. However, the G-demon type is easily affected by the Venusian environment and will be unstable in form, so it is difficult to adhere to it.
Since it is on the surface of the body, it is naturally impossible to use magic energy to amplify the body. If it comes to strength, it is no match for Warcraft." Chu Ru said with a calm expression, seemingly no longer as frightened as she was at the beginning.
As the two men continued to advance five hundred meters, there were no more protrusions on the ground, replaced by a vast expanse of white.
This scene was so spectacular, it was like a slaughterhouse. In addition to human bones, there were also many demonic beast bones. It was hard to imagine how many brutal fights this place had gone through.
"If there is a situation, be careful!" Luo Nian became cautious and vaguely saw a black shadow moving two hundred meters ahead.
"Well, you should be careful. You can use the magic circle if necessary." Chu Ru was a little more vigilant in her words.
The two tried to avoid places with many bones, chose a flatter road, and approached the monster step by step.
"Flame Lizard!" The two of them said almost in unison, their voices were very soft and did not attract the attention of the Flame Lizard.
The Flame Lizard is a common first-level monster. It is a scavenger. It likes to eat the corpses of people or monsters and is timid by nature.
Because the Flame Lizard's body is covered with hard scales, it has extremely high defense. It will shrink into a ball when it encounters danger, and ordinary attacks cannot cause damage to it.
Perhaps it was because the movements of the two of them were relatively light. When they were less than 3 meters behind the Flame Lizard, the Flame Lizard reacted and immediately curled up into a ball.
Then he quickly opened all the scales on his body and entered the strongest defensive state.
"It's really as the book says, haha, the opportunity for the first kill has come, Chu Ru, if not I'll give it to you!" Luo Nian said with a smile as he looked at the nearly 3-meter-diameter Flame Lizard Ball in front of him.
"Well, you are really lucky. In the first battle, you met someone who gave you points, hehe!" After saying that, Chu Ru slowly raised the fairy staff in her hand.
In an instant, a ten-meter-long large ice pick appeared out of thin air and penetrated the Salamander's hard body.
"Didi! Chu Ru, hunt down 1 advanced first-level monster and obtain 5 points of magic energy." The magic energy stone on Luo Nian's body made a mechanical sound.
At this time, Luo Nian was dumbfounded and was staring at Chu Ru with a look of disbelief on his face. "I said to Chu Ru, can the G magic attribute be so powerful? Why does it feel that it is even more powerful than Liu Gang's C-level stainless steel magic attribute?"
?”
After Jing Luonian praised her like this, Chu Ru felt extremely proud.
But she pretended to be calm and said, "The ice magic attribute is only unstable, but it is still aggressive. In addition, the fairy staff can amplify one's own magic attribute twenty times, which is still very lethal to fixed targets."
of."
"Then even if my water demon attribute is magnified a hundred times, it's still water! God, it's so dehumanizing!" Luo Nian covered his face with his hands, feeling extremely disappointed.
Chu Ru raised the corner of her mouth slightly, blinked her clear eyes slightly, and said comfortingly, "It's okay, the existence of demons has its own reasons, it's just that you haven't discovered its potential!"
"Well, I hope I can get ahead one day!" Luo Nian said sadly, without any trace of confidence in his words.
The two continued to move forward for 500 meters. Perhaps due to better luck, they encountered a total of 38 monsters along the way, all of which were high-level first-level salamanders. They hunted them all down without any effort.
"Why do I feel a little strange? Are there only fire lizards in the advanced first-order Warcraft area? If that's the case, how come there are so many human skeletons?" Luo Nian murmured to himself.
