Ascension

Chapter 123 Guagua Likes to Shoot Targets
"Moo?"

Their heads were tied by ropes, and the cows and horses couldn't lower their heads to eat grass.

Sensing the approach of humans, it couldn't help but raise its head. There was no expression of fear on its fleshy face, but the mooing made it seem a little unhappy.

"Master Han, did you buy a mount?"

Su Mei opened her big bright eyes, looked at the cattle and horses, and at Mr. Yehan, but hesitated to speak.

"Why, despise this kind of spirit?"

Master Yehan asked with a faint smile.

"This kind of beast has a bad reputation, and generally few people are willing to ride it."

"I don't care about that."

Lord Yehan said indifferently:

"Although oxen and horses are not particularly fast, they are good at running long distances."

"Even if I can only provide one-way transportation for me, if I accidentally sacrifice it later, I won't suffer too much loss."

"That's right."

Su Mei nodded and asked curiously:
"Master Han, where do you plan to take us to hunt these few days?"

"Go to the "Yellow Mire". "

Mr. Yehan got on his horse, grasped the rein with his palm, and said relaxedly:

"Comprehensive analysis, that area is more suitable for the two of you. After a few days, you may have a good harvest."

"Going to the Yellow Mire..."

Su Mei blinked, surprised by this information.

This is a little famous place near Canghai Pavilion.

The reason for being famous is for no other reason than being dangerous.

Whether it is a terrain covered with swamps or the ecological species that inhabit it, it is by no means easy for new family members to set foot in.

If you don't make enough preparations in advance, don't form an experienced expedition team in advance, and go alone, it's easy to fall into a big fall.

Li Jingming said thoughtfully:

"Canghai Pavilion used to have several mentors who spent a lot of energy making an "adventure map" for the students. "

"The map takes the Canghai Pavilion as the center, and grades and divides the surrounding areas suitable for adventure, from near to far, from safe to dangerous."

"If we talk about the previous survival trials, the risk factor is one star, which is suitable for newcomers to explore."

"Then the danger factor of this yellow mud swamp is said to be two and a half stars, and the number of Xiazhao's fetuses appearing randomly is more. The highly poisonous and silt that may kill people invisibly is a source of danger that cannot be ignored."

"It is because of the danger that we can train you better."

Lord Yehan smiled lightly, and drove the cattle and horses to run along the narrow path.

That unmistakable voice floated into the ears of the two disciples along the spring breeze:

"The freshman competition in eighteen days' time will be the stage for you to show your strength."

"But your contracted spirits are almost meaningless in terms of rank."

"If you can break through to the perfection of clay sculptures, you will be able to stand out and compete with those newcomers who are more senior."

"We will work hard!"

"Quack! Quack!"

With a flash of pink light, Su Mei rode a pink ostrich and quickly caught up with the cows and horses.

"Srustling~~~"

Grimacing Moth's speed is not slow either, it catches Li Jingming and flies forward, its two wings flapping fast.

The two stopped talking, one had a serious face, the mixed emotions of anticipation and apprehension could be seen directly on the snow-white cheeks.

The other one is more calm, with eyes glanced to the sides from time to time, not daring to be distracted, and always on guard against wild spirits with a desire to attack.

In this way, the journey went smoothly, and in the afternoon, the three of them arrived at the Yellow Mire area marked on the map.

"Wow..."

The swampy area is still covered with dense vegetation, especially moss and ferns.

Unlike other places, whether it is soil or rocks, most of them tend to be turbid yellow, which is also the origin of the name Yellow Mire.

"Sizzle~~~"

A "big and thin boa constrictor" with a body length of more than three meters, but only the thickness of a finger, stared ahead with its shining eyes, and then swayed its body, climbing forward very gracefully.

"Whoosh-"

One meter closer to the prey, the big and small boa constrictor suddenly accelerated.

Its target is a "mud frog". Given the size of the opponent's bucket, it must be a masterpiece of clay sculpture.

But what is slightly chilling is that the big and small python just took a bite, and the frightened mud frog jumped and escaped.

After escaping less than [-] meters away, his lower limbs felt weak, and he fell to the ground, his mouth was full of white foam.

"hiss~~"

The large and small boa constrictors following unhurriedly were as graceful as a lady.

Gently entangle the mud frog, and then start from the frog's head and swallow it bit by bit.

"Meow!!"

In the other direction, in the turbid muddy water, a strange spirit suddenly sprang out.

It looks like a cat as a whole, and it is half a meter long.

But its eyes are very big, instead of growing flat, they go up and down, one between the eyebrows and one on the chin.

This is a fish cat. With a light flick of its fork-shaped cat claws, it stuck a big fish in the mud, and it couldn't get rid of it no matter how hard it struggled.

"Meow! Meow!!"

After catching the prey, the female fish cat yelled into the muddy water just jumped out.

Soon, a male fish cat of about the same size cautiously emerged.

After looking around and confirming that there was no danger, it dared to lean over, scraped off a piece of fish meat from the belly of the big fish with its forked claws, and ate it hungrily.

……

"Master Han, there is a "Lance Spider" over there. "

The team that lowered their bodies and advanced slowly through the sheltered plants suddenly stopped.

Li Jingming pointed to the right, about 80 meters away, there was a huge spider hanging on the spider web.

Flying birds or insects, if you don't carefully observe the translucent silk thread, can easily become a rich dinner for big spiders.

"Go ahead, I'll leave it to you to kill independently." Ye Hanjun said lightly.

"Yes."

Li Jingming nodded and turned his ears to listen to the nearby worms.

After confirming that there were no emotions such as "fear" or "panic", he slowly approached the spear spider, flipping his ten fingers, and constructed a shiny energy insect net at an extremely fast speed.

At a distance of 20 meters, Li Jingming stood up abruptly, throwing the condensed insect net in his hand towards the air.

When the bug net loses momentum and falls downward, the area covered by the opened bug net happens to be where the spear spider is.

"hiss!!"

The drowsy spear spider woke up with a start.

It was originally only covered by the bug net, and it could get away with a little more dexterity.

But because of the blind and violent struggle, several spider legs were entangled by energy insect nets instead.

"Shusu! Susu!!"

The Grimace Moth jumped out, aimed at the frantic spear spider, and continued to launch "Scare Powder".

Obviously possessing sharp spider spears that can easily pierce the armor of prey, but the spear spider can't touch the grimacing moth at all, so it has no chance to use it.

"Hiss..."

In just twenty seconds, because the body was covered with a lot of shock powder, the big spider's six eyes widened.

It is no longer eager to fight back, but wants to escape.

But it still couldn't break free from the bug net quickly, and the toxin further eroded its soul, and finally gave up struggling, curled up on the ground trembling.

"Chong!"

Li Jingming, who was slowly approaching, raised the long sword in his hand, inserted it into the head of the spear spider, and stirred it gently.

The big spider twitched for more than ten seconds, and when the eight legs stopped moving, Li Jingming raised his head, and his eyes fell on Su Mei and Ye Hanjun.

"Clean and tidy, not bad."

Lord Yehan avoided the mud and stood beside Li Jingming again.

The spear spider in front of him is a master of clay sculpture, on the same level as the grimacing moth.

In the natural ecological circle, it is not food, and it is thankless to fight. With the blessing of double reasons, wild grimacing moths will not fight with it at all.

But with the cooperation of the lord, in just a few minutes, he won without any damage.

This is the advantage of cooperating with human beings and spirits, especially the head of the family who can assist the contracted spirits, and they are more comfortable in battle.

"I can feel the accelerated flow of authority..." Li Jingming realized it carefully for a while, "But I feel that there is still a long way to go before reaching the bottleneck of the first rank."

"Normal." Lord Yehan nodded and said, "You have only been the head of the family for two months, and you can take advantage of the battle with the clay sculpture of the grimacing moth."

"But because you are a "bug catcher", it is difficult to resonate with your authority if you stay in the academy. It is too early for you to break through the ranks now. "

"Well, with the guidance of Master Han, next, I will stay in the wild as much as possible, and let myself gain experience as quickly as possible."

Li Jingming looked thoughtful, and said again:
"Master Han, it's the first time I entered the swamp, maybe the safety factor is a little higher, can I try "Sweet Slime"? "

"Yes." Mr. Yehan agreed, "This power is interesting, and I also want to know what level its strength can reach."

"Then I'll set up a trap, and ask Master Han and Sister Su to guard me."

As he said that, under the gaze of several pairs of eyes, Li Jingming weaved the insect net again.

His energy bug net, once created, does not dissipate immediately.

Different thicknesses, different densities, different shapes, different toughness, different viscosities... there will be all kinds of strange combination effects.

Using the dead spear spider carcass as bait, Li Jingming made a large number of insect nets among the surrounding tree trunks, ferns, and rocks, whether concealed or blatantly, forming an encircling circle.

Afterwards, Ye Hanjun and Su Mei withdrew a hundred meters and saw Li Jingming finished weaving. Instead, with a more focused expression, an orange-yellow sticky substance was secreted from the palm of his hand, which was continuously smeared on the corpse of the spear spider. .

Active Power - Sweet Slime!
The elevation of respect to the teacher did not allow Li Jingming to gain additional passive powers.

However, his active power has increased by one. After testing, it is suspected that it has the effect of attracting insect spirits. If it is paired with a woven insect net, it may have extremely excellent insect-catching benefits.

"Shh-"

After applying the slime, Li Jingming retreated decisively from the remaining gap in the bug net.

Then, while appeasing the agitated Grimace Moth, he hid among the plants like Ye Hanjun and Su Mei, waiting patiently for the scent to evaporate and dissipate.

"Buzzing—"

Within five or six minutes, a group of blood-sucking flying mosquitoes, small as clay sculptures, rushed over.

They didn't linger, and pounced straight at the spear spider's corpse. Even if a companion hit the insect net, the fluttering wings lost the ability to fly, as if they couldn't see, and continued to pounce like crazy.

"Gulu! Gulu!!"

Two corroded snails activated the skill "Rolling". One was blocked by the insect net and struggled desperately. The other got into the gap fortunately, and then kept climbing on the corpse of the lance spider, feeling very excited.

"Boom!!"

A big-mouthed centipede broke out of the ground suddenly, because there was no insect net prepared on the ground, it bit the spear spider's corpse without any hindrance, and wrapped its long body around it, trying in vain to have a feast for an insect.

The corrosion snail next to it is lower than it. If it is normal, it will choose to drill back into the beetle, and dare not continue to probe no matter what.

But at this moment, it got angry and started to roll and hit the big-mouthed centipede. The big-mouthed centipede was not to be outdone, and swung its tail backhand, sending the snail flying.

Chaos - an instant eruption!
Insect-type spirits were constantly being attracted, either blocked by the insect net, or breaking through the encirclement, and then mingled with other insect-type spirits.

Be careful of Li Jingming who is lurking, his neck is slightly stiff.

After repeated confirmation several times, he turned his head, the strange expression on his handsome cheek could not be concealed, and said in a low voice:

"Master Han, because it's the first time I tried it, I didn't dare to use the maximum dose of sweet mucus, I only used half of it."

"But this effect seems to be much stronger than expected..."

"Does power have a flow effect?" Mr. Ye Han asked.

"Yes!" Li Jingming affirmed: "There are far more than hunting spear spiders. I have never felt such a ferocious growth rate!"

"It seems that God rewards food, and even surprises are fed into his mouth."

Mr. Ye Han grinned, showing a hint of a smile, and said approvingly:
"Wang Xinfei's authority, although it can reach C."

"However, the scattered powers of "Mountain Collapse" and "Ejection Shield" will make her combat capabilities biased towards a more comprehensive field. "

"You are different, you are now a super product insect catcher, authority level D."

"But you only increase one active power, and the overall effect is very concentrated."

"'Sweet Slime' + 'Weaving Bug Net', it can be predicted that the growth rate of your authority will be much higher than that of the newcomers in the same period. "

"Perhaps, you can catch up with Su Mei and Wang Xinfei in a shorter period of time and advance to the second rank, which will be faster than previously imagined."

"It's good news."

Li Jingming grinned, a sunny smile of a teenager, clean and pure.

After a while, he asked again:

"Master Han, the sweet slime is about to fail."

"Once it fails, the bug-type spirits will gradually return to a rational state. Now that there are so many bugs, the wounded and disabled, let's go up and harvest a wave?"

"Just go with Su Mei, and I'll sweep the battle for you." Mr. Ye Han nodded.

Before stepping into the yellow mud swamp, he released the cows and horses in another relatively safe area.

It's best if you can still find it when you leave.

It doesn't matter if you accidentally hang up.

Since stepping into the swamp, Mr. Yehan has not summoned Huazhu yet, and has always maintained a state of being alone and unrestrained, acting as the eyes of the team with superspirituality.

"Yeah..."

Inside the kettle, the little tadpole made a calling sound, as if aware of the excitement outside, and wanted to come out to have a look.

With a heartbeat, Mr. Ye Han opened the bottle cap and let the little tadpole spitting out bubbles float beside him.

"Yeah!" ●)o(●

Guagua was stunned.

Silt, mud, mud... These things that look turbid and dirty to human beings are only part of the natural ecology to the pure spirits that are naturally raised. They belong to "pure" and will not have any disgusting touch .

But - Guagua has never seen so many weird guys clustered together!
Such as blood-sucking mosquitoes, grass moths, stink flies... many winged insects are stuck on the insect nets, those with strong strength can break free, and those with insufficient strength are at the mercy of others.

"Puff puff!!"

Guagua, who shook his tail and raised his head, saw a blood-red thing that wanted to fly over his head.

Without much hesitation, a string of water bombs slammed over, and none of them missed, and all of them hit the blood-sucking floating mosquitoes.

This is a blood-sucking flying mosquito falsely lured by a clay sculpture. After being hit, the back of the head buzzed, its wings lost control, and it fell into the mud.

And thin wings, soaked in mud.

It often means that it will be trapped in the swamp, because it can't suck blood, and starve to death.

"Yay!!"

Guagua tilted his head, and in his small head, he recalled the experience of shooting a target.

Then, seeing more things flying around, Guagua punctured the bubbles and made a string of water bombs. Before he fell into the mud, the bubbles floated up, and then another string Water bombs.

The pure white tadpoles made of clay sculptures, and the chaotic spirit patterns corresponding to the skill "Water Bomb"...only have 36 patterns.

But Ye Hanjun's eyes twitched twice, and he had to give in.

The little guy has mastered this skill, and every time he casts, he subconsciously targets the weakness of the flying insects.

Usually the head.

If it sees one with a particularly big head and a relatively small body, it will not hit the head, but only the stomach.

Occasionally, I will stare at the wings and beat them, whether they are discounted or pierced, losing the ability to fly means that death is not far away.

After a while, the mud near Mr. Ye Han was full of dying insects.

Although, Guagua couldn't beat some of the larger and higher-ranked ones.

But the more Guagua plays, the happier he is. It’s like performing acrobatics, spitting bubbles, water bombs, spitting bubbles, water bombs, and constantly switching skills, but he doesn’t feel tired at all.

"you……"

"...Shouldn't it have the characteristic of being energetic?"

Mr. Yehan couldn't bear it anymore, more than once, the out-of-control bugs hit his clothes, leaving all kinds of mucus.

Even with the material of this high-end windbreaker, it can be washed clean with one rinse, but it always feels itchy everywhere.

"Yeah~~~"

Guagua stopped playing the target game, turned around, looked up at Mr. Ye Han.

Then, it opened its mouth, and another string of water bombs.

Lord Yehan didn't hide because he didn't sense the danger.

This string of water bombs is completely different from the one used for beating bugs. It is more like spitting water continuously. The dirt on the windbreaker continuously drips to the ground along the water flow. After a while, the black windbreaker looks brand new.

"Yeah~~~~"

Guagua circled Ye Hanjun in circles.

As if feeling that it wasn't enough fun, he activated the skill "Flash" and used the shiny tadpole body to highlight the little joy in his heart.

"The "water bomb" that can be sent and received freely, the "flash" that is getting more and more proficient..."

Mr. Yehan sighed, Guagua's growth rate is too fast, and he can't participate in the death challenge on weekdays. The space for him to move freely is basically only the bathroom.

Just like this, the proficiency of skills is skyrocketing every day, and any skill can be played in a blink of an eye.

"Chirp!!"

An iron-headed cuckoo found a flashing moving object and fell from the sky, trying to pounce on it.

The little tadpole, who was in a good mood, quickly moved half a meter across, not afraid, and tilted his head with curiosity.

This thing... what do you want?

"puff!"

A blood-sucking dagger pierced the iron-headed cuckoo's stomach, never giving it a chance to rise into the air again.

Mr. Yehan glanced at him, not paying attention to the iron-headed cuckoo who wanted to die, but once again marveled at the little guy's reaction ability.

Guagua, who has outstanding talent and instincts, if released into the wild, after a few years, at least he will be the leader of the king of the mountain. Only he can bully other "things", and no other "things" can bully him.

"Quack! Quack!"

"Susu Susu! Susu!"

On the other side, Su Mei rode a pink ostrich and rampaged towards the ground-type bug-type spirits.

The Grimace Moth no longer uses scaring powder, but mainly uses "Windstorm" or "Wing Strike" to continuously harvest injured insect-type spirits.

After 15 minutes, the battle is over.

Fifty insect corpses scattered around.

At the moment when the battle ended, Li Jingming's breath was slightly heavy.

The galloping blood flowed straight to the sky, and the spirit of the whole person was inspired by it.

As a coach, Mr. Ye Han also had subtle touches. He could detect that during this gap, he had more experience points to feed back than usual.

"With such a powerful initiative, does it consume your physical strength or your energy?" Ye Han asked.

"Physical strength, as well as water and sugar."

Li Jingming said: "I'm very hungry now, my limbs are slightly weak, my brain is slightly dizzy, and I actually have a feeling of low blood sugar."

"You can't squander at will, this is in line with common sense."

Mr. Ye Han nodded, looked around, and grabbed a few dead spiny caterpillars from the mud.

"Let's eat something. This kind of bug can be eaten raw by burning it with flames to remove the burrs. It tastes very fat and has high nutritional value."

"..."

Li Jingming's eyes straightened, and his handsome face froze for a while.

Master Han's recipe... so wild?

"I can not eat it?"

Mr. Yehan smiled, took out a flame talisman, and demonstrated how to taste it on the spot.

Hearing the slight popping sound from Master Han's mouth, Li Jingming's eyes became even more erratic.

After hesitating again and again, he closed his eyes, grabbed the worms that Master Han had roasted, and stuffed them into his mouth.

"How about it, does it taste good?"

Mr. Yehan relished it, and while tasting the second one, he also invited Su Mei to taste one.

"Master Han, you know food..."

Su Mei closed her eyes, squeezed her nose and swallowed, not daring to let the insects explode in her mouth.

"If you lose all your equipment and all your survival supplies."

"The most extreme survival in the wild, in order to survive, everything may be turned into food..."

Mr. Yehan ate the third thornball caterpillar, inspected the battlefield, and then ordered:

"The spider legs of the spear spider can be collected, there is no need to waste time on the others, just take a rest, let's continue to go deeper."

As soon as the words fell, Mr. Ye Han raised his eyebrows, and immediately changed the order:

"Forget it, the smell of blood is too strong, there are 'big guys' approaching."

"Give up the collection, let's take a detour and leave, don't disturb it."

After a while, an extremely huge "mud frog" jumped and approached.

It was covered in hideous gray mud, and its warped head was twisted and sickly.

With its arrival, the smell of mud in the air tripled, and the stuffy and smelly smell instantly overwhelmed the bloody smell of bugs.

"squeak!"

The two protruding eyeballs only slightly turned around.

A few mud rats that were stealing food were scared out of their wits, and they dug through the mud and burrowed underground.

"Quack! Quack!"

Xiazhao Xiaocheng's mud frog began to enjoy the buffet dinner. ψ(｀)ψ
