I asked you to practice physical skills, not to open the Eight Gates!

Chapter 60, Turbulence

The emergence of the mysterious tree brought unprecedented turmoil.

Everyone is waiting for the results of the investigation, and no one dares to let their guard down until the results come out.

After all, the unknown is the most dangerous.

Li Yang has been staying in Yunlong University for some time and is getting a bit bored.

Yun Qian issued a clear order prohibiting all students from going out during this period, so he had no choice but to stay.

However, his boredom did not last long, as it was broken by the return of a man - Zhao Changfeng!

"Brother Feng? When did you come back?" Li Yang was surprised when he saw Zhao Changfeng at the door.

He remembered that Zhao Changfeng said that he was going to the Endless Forest to settle accounts with the kings of monsters, right?

"I came back last night."

"Did the mission go smoothly?"

"It's okay. We had originally planned to charge in and settle accounts with Toad King and those old guys, but such a big change suddenly happened, so we had to come back. In the end, we only killed a few level six monsters." Zhao Changfeng felt a little regretful.

If it weren't for the sudden appearance of the mysterious tree, he would have already rushed into the Endless Forest.

"Come with me, I have something to talk to you about."

Zhao Changfeng called Li Yang away.

……

Principal's office.

Yun Qian and several teachers were there.

There is only one student here, Li Yang.

"I've called Li Yang over, so we can start the discussion."

Yun Qian nodded, turned on the projector, and displayed photos on the screen.

The contents of the photos are similar, all of them are mysterious trees with fiery red trunks and golden leaves!
"This is a tree that was formed from a meteorite that fell from the sky some time ago. We are currently calling it the 'mysterious tree'."

"According to the current investigations by the Alliance, various legions, and academies, these mysterious trees contain some unknown and powerful energy."

"This energy has a strong corrosive effect. If we humans are corroded by this energy, we will be assimilated, gradually lose our humanity, and become a walking corpse."

"Moreover, the mysterious tree also has a strengthening effect on monsters. Currently, it has been found in many places that monsters strengthened by the mysterious tree have become more violent and powerful."

"That is to say, the appearance of the mysterious tree has caused serious adverse effects on us. Whether it is the mysterious tree's erosion of our human body or the strengthening of the monsters, it is all bad news."

Yun Qian’s words made everyone ponder.

This information was compiled during this period of time and was previously unknown to those present.

"In other words, the appearance of the mysterious tree is useful to monsters, but it is a new threat to us humans." Zhao Changfeng summarized briefly.

He had just returned and his knowledge of the mysterious tree was very limited.

"You can say that." Yun Qian agreed with his summary.

"This is not good news." Zhao Changfeng frowned.

Monster has been developing rapidly in recent years.

Now the mysterious tree appears, adding fuel to the fire.

"It's not good news indeed. The Alliance Headquarters has already prepared for the meeting. Let's see what President Chi has planned."

Yun Qian connected to the video call to the Shenxia Alliance headquarters.

On the same screen, there were dozens of smaller screens - urban colleges across the country participating in the conference.

This is a memory of the Shenxia Kingdom!
Chi Xiangguang appeared in the center of the screen.
"Dear principals and legion commanders, welcome to this meeting."

"Let's not waste any more time talking nonsense and get straight to the point."

"Regarding the mysterious tree that has appeared recently, we have obtained two main pieces of information so far."

"First, the mysterious tree will not attack actively, but its power will corrode humans who approach it."

"Second, the mysterious tree has an amplifying effect on monsters, strengthening their strength."

"So, now we have to take two measures. First, we have to fence off the mysterious tree and keep people away from it. Second, we have to guard against attacks from monsters, especially those strengthened by the mysterious tree."

"But remember, we don't know enough about the mysterious tree yet, so don't act rashly."

"Further investigation is needed on the origin of the mysterious tree and how to resolve it." "This is a new crisis. We all need to work together to resolve the threat."

"Yes, President!"

The meeting ended quickly.

This was not a discussion meeting at all, but a top-down unification meeting.

The main thing is to stabilize the mentality of all parties.

However, after the meeting, Chi Xiangguang also established a private call with Yunlong University.

"Changfeng, you're back."

"Well, I just came back yesterday."

"Then you will be in charge of Dusk City. Be on guard against attacks from monsters outside the Everfree Forest."

The mysterious tree gives the greatest boost to monsters.

Therefore, the monsters outside the City of Dusk are likely to take the opportunity to attack, so we have to be on guard.

"I will."

"Also, Li Yang is here too, right?"

Hearing Chi Xiangguang suddenly mention him, Li Yang, who was dozing off in the back, was awakened and showed his head.
"President Chi, I'm here."

He always falls asleep easily during every meeting.

Moreover, he didn't know why he was the only student attending the meeting.

Could he be the legendary student representative?

"Li Yang, you follow Changfeng and join the investigation of the mysterious tree. You can move freely." Chi Xiangguang said.

"Oh." Li Yang was happy to accept it.

What attracted him most was the freedom to move around.

He is not a person who can sit idle. It is too boring to stay in school all the time. He cannot go out to hunt monsters and get crystal cores, which is equivalent to cutting off his resources.

Instead, the other teachers in the conference room were a little surprised.

Li Yang, a student, could actually obtain Chi Xiangguang's permission to act on his own. Even they didn't have such treatment!
Li Yang finally understood why Zhao Changfeng wanted to call him along.

I guess it was Chi Xiangguang’s request.

"Okay, let's take action. I hope you can get good news."

Chi Xiangguang hung up the video call.

"Let's go, let's go to the nearest mysterious tree first."

Zhao Changfeng immediately took action and took Li Yang away as well.

……

The two left Yunlong University and headed straight for Dusk City.

Less than a hundred meters outside the City of Dusk, a mysterious tree also grew.

But the location of this mysterious tree is so awkward.

Although it is not within the territory of Shenxia, it is very close and will pose a threat to Dusk City.

Most importantly, outside of Twilight City is the Monster Forest.

The mysterious tree will attract a large number of monsters, posing a threat to the City of Dusk.
