When this mutated fungus explodes, the daughter bodies sprayed out are hundreds of times stronger than the stickiness of cockleburs. You can imagine the feeling of having them stick to your skin... You have to work hard to get them off.
Get rid of it. The purpose of this fungus is to try to use the adhesion of the seeds to spread the seeds as far as possible.
Of course, the most troublesome thing for Sheyan and the others is the Slingers they have encountered before. These guys who live near the Omaticaya tribe seem to have mutated and become more powerful. They are hiding in the jungle.
When a raid is launched again, it will be enough to pose a powerful threat to any contractor!
The tiny poisonous stings ejected by these creatures can often be well concealed by the surrounding environment, and can accurately fly towards the contractor's vital points.
In fact, this is also the usual way of raiding by Slingers in the primitive jungle. The blow dart is actually their mutated fangs, which secrete terrible venom that is more poisonous than the black mamba snake! According to the rda report analysis, that
The venom in its fangs is enough to kill a blue whale in one minute!
In actual combat, even after being hit by a rock, the area hit by the shot must be gouged out quickly, otherwise it will be difficult even for him to bear the continuous damage.
It is said that at 12 o'clock that night, Fang Senyan and the three of them sneaked out of the base secretly, while the other contractors waited for 24 hours before going out again on the alert for abnormalities.
With such an advantage and detailed information, there is no doubt that Fang Senyan, the trio, has begun to be far ahead of the rest in terms of rda's reputation progress - of course, they cleverly
hid this fact.
At the same time, I have to admit that the colonists in Starlo did a good thing before leaving. Their elimination of those summoners undoubtedly helped Sheyan and the others a lot.
However, Sheyan and the others were prepared, and the other contractors also had their own magical powers. This woman, Zi, actually had a very good relationship with Professor Grace, which undoubtedly gave her many innate conveniences. Although the professor was an upright and honest person,
He is a person who will not show favoritism, but will take the time to answer some of the difficult questions raised by him.
Among the remaining contractors who have been able to stay till now, it is inevitable that there are some hidden dragons and crouching tigers. Those who can survive till now and stay should not be underestimated. In terms of competition for reputation, it definitely does not mean that Sheyan and the others can rest assured.
Already.
As time goes by, and the pressure from the external enemy disappears, the sense of competition and prevention among the contractors gradually becomes stronger again.
Fortunately, Sheyan only went to see Director Parker once at that time, and he got it right at the first time, which was quite covert, so he did a very good job of keeping secrets. He completely stole the limelight from himself. At this time, the remaining contractors
There are only about forty people, and the Illuminati account for about one-third.
As the saying goes, a master who never forgets the aftermath, since Starlow and his gang were the first to "clear the place", the remaining contractors are naturally wary of the Illuminati to avoid the tragedy of clearing the place again. The main contradiction is still
The Illuminati and the other contractors. However, Sheyan continued to be calm and did not need to bear too much pressure.
*************
Time was quickly consumed by the intense and busy work of all the contractors, and the three-day deadline was quickly reached. The rewards for the general points and potential points from the work done by Sheyan and the others were quite small, and the cumulative total was still only
The main thing is to work hard to improve the reputation of rda company. As the countdown begins, there are also reminders in the nightmare mark:
"You have completed the subsequent battlefield side mission: Trust at Hell's Gate."
"Mission goal: within seventy-two hours, raise your reputation in the rda base to respect."
"Your current reputation is: (1471/6000) respect."
"You have received a reward of 5 merit points." (The basic reward is 2 merit points, an additional +2 points for the silver team leader, and an additional +1 legendary level)
"Contractors who fail to raise their reputation to respect will be forced to return to the nightmare world within ten minutes."
****************
"Tip: The top three contractors who have priority to complete this task ahead of schedule are Contractor No. 1018, Contractor No. 2703, and Contractor No. 15711!"
"Tip: Contractor No. 1018, you are the first to complete this mission first."
"Additional rewards are being calculated..."
"Please choose one of the following rewards as your additional reward."
"Reward A: You gain an additional 5 merit points."
"Reward B: You get an additional 20,000 general points."
"Reward C: You gain an additional 10 potential points."
"Reward d: Your stay in this world can be extended by an additional 5 days."
Faced with this four-choice question, although reward a was very tempting, Sheyan still decisively chose item d, which he had expected a long, long time ago.
But as soon as he saw the sentence "The top three contractors who have given priority to completing this mission ahead of schedule are Contractor No. 1018...", a chill immediately ran down his spine. He couldn't bear it.
I lamented in my heart:
"It really deserves to be a battlefield side mission... Once it is announced like this, won't it directly ignite the fuse of internal strife? And the competition is too great."
To be honest, although Mogansha and Jiaoshi completed the side mission, Fang Senyan was unexpected that they were not among the top three. It can be said that the three of them have a huge advantage and the first move, and they are also titled as "Excellent Employees"
Help, among the top three, only Fang Senyan became the first!
At this time, you can see the importance of the +1 legend bonus. This thing looks very inconspicuous at ordinary times, but at the critical moment, it really has a powerful and decisive effect!
At this time, Reef had already said in the team channel:
"Zi is the second number 12703. I don't know who the number 15711 is. Boss, your identity may be leaked."
Fang Sheyan said calmly:
"No, my perception is no worse than the others, and there is also the priority Las pulse jammer that comes with the helmet. They can't detect my space number."
Mogansha said seriously:
"Boss, sometimes, when you can't find any information, it speaks for itself."
Sheyan smiled and said:
"If the Illuminati dares to investigate, it's only if they want to hurt both sides. If I guessed correctly, that number 15711 probably came with a strong purpose. There are probably a few teammates who would rather fail their side mission and lose 10 points of merit.
We must make sure that he gets the top three. Such a person has been hidden until now, and his plans must be huge. Think about it, will he compromise with the Illuminati at this time?"
The situation was becoming very delicate, and it could be said that the storm was about to come. A broadcast suddenly sounded at Hell Gate Base, asking the new mercenaries who had passed the test to go to the second floor of the command center for a meeting. At this time, this person
Almost half of the contractors were eliminated in the battlefield branch mission, leaving about twenty people. The Illuminati still had seven people left, accounting for almost 1/3 of the people.
When they entered the conference hall one after another, they found that the two giants, Colonel Miles Quatch and Dr. Grace Augustine, were standing there, and Director Parker Selfridge was also standing on the rostrum.
Above, when everyone stood still, Director Parker began to speak:
"Brave soldiers, we just received a communication from an exploration team. In their communication before disappearing, they claimed that they had discovered the Na'vi people's spiritual holy land: the location of the Tree of Souls. Professor Grace confirmed that these people like to live in
The blue-skinned monkeys in the trees may indeed share a common belief, so if we figure that out, it's possible to get rid of these troublesome guys and even convince them to help us mine."
"And what you have to do is very, very simple: confirm the authenticity of this matter, and then bring back a branch of the so-called tree of souls. I will prepare champagne, flowers, girls, and of course a girl in the base.
A blank check is waiting for you."
Sheyan and the others also received the message:
"Battlefield side mission (final step) issued: Branches of the Tree of Souls"
"Mission goal: Obtain a piece of the calyx of the Na'vi Soul Tree within five days."
"Explanation: Through unremitting efforts during this period, you have successfully gained the recognition of the people in the rda base. So they are currently planning to give you a difficult task. The latest exploration team sent back a very important message.
That is, they have probably discovered the Na'vi people's spiritual holy land: the location of the Tree of Souls. Confirm the authenticity of this news, and then bring back a piece of the calyx of the Tree of Souls!"
"Tip: Only the first three people who bring back the calyx of the Soul Tree can receive the reward!"
"Warning: If you refuse this mission, you will be granted four days of free stay/or return immediately after obtaining certain rewards."
"Do you want to accept this mission: Y/N?"
*************
After seeing this mission, many thoughts flashed through Sheyan's mind. He suddenly stood up and spoke to Chief Parker seriously:
"I'm sorry, sir, I think my abilities are limited and I cannot bear such a difficult task."
Then he gave Parker a "you know" wink. An old man like Parker understood it, but said calmly:
"Okay, RDA will never force employees to do anything. We will never forget your previous achievements."
