Chapter 188 Unknown Marks, Harvest Display
Chapter 188 Unknown Marks, Harvest Display
"The seventh coccyx, the third spine, and the back half of the waist!"
As Chu Mu's voice fell, a series of attacks simultaneously hit a skeleton-shaped star beast that had just rushed out of the wormhole entrance.
After several kills, the seven members of the team no longer had any doubts about the location pointed out by Chu Mu.
You don't have to do anything, just attack the indicated position.
Such a simple process really makes people worry-free.
With a wail, another star beast fell to the ground. Song Yan took a step forward, growled, picked it up, and piled it in the woods not far away.
There, more than a dozen star beasts have gathered one after another.
The largest of these star beasts is only two or three meters long, while the strongest is nearly twenty meters long.
As the only person in the team who has reached the Nayuan realm, Xu Yuncan is currently busy near the pile of star beast corpses.
There were other people who killed the star beast, and he couldn't help much with his strength. Chu Mu's familiarity with the star beast was far beyond his expectations, which made the wisdom he had always relied on temporarily useless.
But Xu Yuncan is not someone who is easily discouraged. Wanshou Star is not only a place for hunting star beasts, but also a place for studying star beasts.
Therefore, in addition to killing the star beast, the first lesson of the Beidou training camp may not have other hidden contents waiting to be discovered. While trying to dissect the star beast, he was also thinking and pondering whether everyone had missed anything.
Suddenly, Xu Yuncan's eyes fell on a star beast.
That was the eight-legged lizard star beast they encountered when they just found this wormhole. It was also the first seventh-level star beast killed by the team.
At this moment, its corpse was pressed down by the corpses of other star beasts, but because of its huge size, many parts were still exposed.
Xu Yuncan couldn't help but stretch out his hand and stroke one of the eight-legged lizard's claws. A trace of roughness seemed particularly abrupt among the smooth and cold scales.
Those were some characters that were very unfamiliar to Xu Yuncan. They were engraved on a scale on the inside of the eight-legged lizard's claw. They were very hidden, so he had not noticed them before.
what is that?
Xu Yuncan's eyes flashed, and he quickly took out a dagger and cut off the scale with the characters in a few strokes.
Looking at the others who were still busy killing the star beasts, he did not use this matter to distract his teammates. He carefully put away the scales and carefully examined the other claws and body parts of the eight-legged lizard, and then checked the other star beasts.
Soon, he saw similar marks on another small star beast that was only two or three meters long.
As Xu Yuncan completely removed the two scales with marks on them, Chu Mu and his companions' busy work came to an end as the entrance of the wormhole shrank.
Looking at the wormhole entrance that was completely shrinking and disappearing, Chu Mu smiled in relief, "This wormhole has been solved."
The others breathed a sigh of relief, and even Lepani, who was putting the rapier into the scabbard, had a hint of fatigue in his eyes.
Fighting against star beasts repeatedly was a first for them. If it weren’t for Chu Mu, it would have been even more difficult.
"Finished? Then take a look at this." Xu Yuncan strode forward, took out two scales with marks on them, and showed them to everyone, "This is what I found when I examined the corpse of the star beast."
"There are 23 characters in total on the two incisions, none of which are identical. Based on the two clues of the character structure and the fact that they come from the same wormhole, we can preliminarily determine that they are the same language."
Xu Yuncan told his findings and speculations one by one, and then frowned slightly, "What do you think, could this be the writing of a star beast?"
"No." Chu Mu glanced at the scales, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly. "Let's not talk about whether the star beast has words for now. These words are too small. Even the smallest ninth-level star beast would find it difficult to carve such words. And who would carve words on themselves?"
"Then there is only one possibility." Xu Yuncan took a deep breath, "This is the writing of some alien civilization that we don't know about."
"As for Xingyuan, I have read some information. It says that people who enter the other side of the wormhole have no way to come back."
"This means that the Alliance has already tried to enter the wormhole."
“Just because they can’t come back doesn’t mean they’re dead. Maybe they can still survive on the other side of the wormhole, or even live to the end of their lives.”
"So, there may be some people in the alliance who are still in the world on the other side of the wormhole."
"Although we haven't encountered many alien civilizations, there are some, and the territory currently explored by the Alliance is just a drop in the ocean compared to the universe."
"So there must be unknown alien civilizations in this universe that we have not encountered, and some of them must have the ability to open wormholes like us."
"Then maybe some of them live on the other side of the wormhole." Xu Yuncan held up the scales, his eyes shining, "The scales in our hands are the evidence of their existence!"
"Perhaps, this is another thing we need to do in the first lesson of Beidou training camp, to discover these unknown traces!"
Everyone was fascinated by Xu Yuncan's analysis, and their imaginations ran wild. Even Chu Mu couldn't help but look at Xu Yuncan strangely.
This kid has something.
So much can be inferred just by looking at two scales with alien characters on them.
"I think Xu Yuncan is right. We should pay attention to this in the future." Chu Mu said seriously, "The duration of small wormholes is similar. This small wormhole has been closed, so the 17 small wormholes we haven't discovered should also be closed one after another."
"For this first lesson, Teacher Du didn't say when it would be considered over, so there are only two possibilities."
"The first one is that the eighteen wormholes are closed, and the first lesson ends."
"The second option is that all the star beasts are killed, and the first lesson ends."
Xu Yuncan carefully put away the scales. After hearing Chu Mu's analysis, he thought for a moment and slowly said, "I think it is the second one."
"Because these eighteen wormholes are randomly distributed on the Myriad Beasts Star, and the time it takes for a wormhole to open and close, based on the wormhole we encountered, is about two hours."
"We, the 1000 people, started from the same location. Some wormholes are located far away from us, so we may not be able to reach them in two hours."
"It's over before we even get there, so what's the point of having a wormhole in a place like that?"
"So, it is impossible for this class to end when all wormholes are closed." Xu Yuncan paused slightly, "It should end when all the star beasts on the Wanshou Star are destroyed."
The others nodded slightly, agreeing with the two's speculation.
"In that case...we need to speed up." Chu Mu quickly chose a new direction, and the group of seven set off immediately.
-
"hold head high--"
Accompanied by a howl filled with anger and despair, a star beast shaped like a Tyrannosaurus Rex fell to the ground with a loud bang, stirring up a large cloud of dust.
Chu Mu and others quickly stepped forward and began to skillfully and carefully examine every inch of the star beast's body.
After a moment, everyone left the star beast's corpse and shook their heads slightly.
They did not find any traces of alien civilization on this star beast.
"You have to rely on luck to find those special traces." Chu Mu smiled, "It's already pretty good to be able to find three."
In addition to the two scales found in the wormhole before, the few people later found some unusual carvings on another lone star beast, and the characters on them did not come from the same source as those on the two scales.
"How many star beasts have we killed?" Lin Changfeng carried the saber on his shoulder and kicked the Tyrannosaurus star beast, "Including this one."
"43." Song Yan said in a muffled voice.
He counted each one carefully.
"43..." Lin Changfeng chuckled, "On average, each person killed 6 star beasts. This record is definitely among the top."
“I don’t know if there will be any rankings.”
"I think so?" Yu Qianqian thought for a moment, "I heard that in the Beidou training camp..."
"Ding——" A loud bell sound suddenly resounded throughout the sky above the Wanshou Star, interrupting Yu Qianqian's words.
Immediately afterwards, Du Fanghua's voice echoed throughout the Star of Ten Thousand Beasts.
"Congratulations to all the students for successfully wiping out all the star beasts that invaded the Myriad Beasts Star. Now please organize your gains and stand still to wait for the arrival of the aircraft."
"Harvest?" Tu Shanming took a breath of cold air. "Oh no, do we need to take a piece of tissue or something every time we kill a star beast to prove that we have killed it?"
"No need." Chu Mu shook his head and smiled. "Did you forget? During the re-screening, the entire Wanshou Star was covered with surveillance. As soon as the re-screening was over, our first lesson began, so the surveillance must still be there."
"It's clear at a glance how many star beasts were killed."
"The harvest that Teacher Du mentioned should refer to this." Xu Yuncan took out the three pieces of biological tissue with special marks.
"That's good." Tu Shanming felt relieved.
As the first class ended, the group of seven relaxed, sat on the ground, and chatted while waiting for the aircraft to come and pick them up.
After a short wait, a spaceship-like aircraft arrived above the crowd. Chu Mu and others boarded the aircraft and saw other students.
Compared to the calmness of the seven of them, these students all looked a little embarrassed, many of them had bruises and were covered in dust.
So much so that when the other students saw the seven people whose clothes were not much damaged, the looks of them suddenly became a little weird.
However, after seeing the composition of this seven-member team, their strange expressions gradually faded.
Soon, the aircraft picked up everyone and returned to the open space where they started.
All the instructors disappeared, leaving only a middle-aged man wearing glasses and looking gentle.
Almost no one knew him, but every instructor in the training camp was extraordinary. Everyone who got off the aircraft was very quiet, and in just a moment they aligned themselves horizontally and vertically to form a neat square formation.
"Don't be so restrained, everyone can relax a little." Song Wenchang pushed his glasses and said, "Song Wenchang, I'm from Tianquan Martial Arts University, a senior researcher of the alliance, and my main research direction is star beasts and star abysses."
"Eighteen wormholes, a total of 1026 star beasts were successfully exterminated. Thank you for your hard work." Song Wenchang glanced at everyone and smiled slightly, "At this point, our first class is halfway done."
Just half?
Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment, and many of the students who were injured in the process of killing the star beasts had bitter expressions on their faces.
Will there be another round of killing?
As if he could see what everyone was thinking, Song Wenchang smiled and said, "Don't worry, we don't need to kill the star beasts in the remaining half of the class."
"All you need to do is put on your ears."
Oh, it’s a lecture.
Everyone relaxed immediately.
"But before I start, I have a question." Song Wenchang spoke slowly, his voice was not loud, but it was clearly transmitted to the ears of every student, "Mr. Du just mentioned that you should bring your gains, are you ready?"
"Now, please take turns showing off your harvest."
coming!
Everyone was refreshed.
Under the instruction of Song Wenchang, the first student in the first row soon walked out and took out several samples of different parts of star beasts from the backpack behind him.
"These are the star beasts that I hunted with four other classmates. There were five in total, and we collected samples from all of them as harvest!"
"Hmm..." Song Wenchang smiled helplessly after checking them one by one, "You did a good job, but this can't be considered a reward."
really.
The seven people including Chu Mu who were standing together looked at each other, and a look of understanding emerged in their eyes.
Just as they guessed, the ordinary parts of star beast corpses were not considered a big harvest at all.
"Next." Seeing the disappointed expression on the student's face, Song Wenchang smiled and motioned for the next person to come on stage.
Soon the second person came onto the stage and, as expected, was also told that the corpses of ordinary star beasts could not be counted as harvest.
For a moment, many students looked confused.
But the situation soon changed.
A young man wearing a green gown and carrying a jade flute walked calmly onto the stage, took out a palm-sized bone fragment and handed it to Song Wenchang.
"Student Ji Qingzhou has made a great contribution." Song Wenchang took it and smiled, "Other students can also take a look."
As he spoke, he showed the side of the bone with the marks on it.
This was the first time that a student’s gains were recognized. For a moment, all the students couldn’t help but look over there, wanting to see the gap between their gains and Ji Qingzhou’s.
The eyesight of star warriors is not weak, and they can see the marks on the bone fragments clearly even from a distance of 100 meters.
The marks looked like characters, but no one could recognize what they were.
So this is what can be considered a harvest?
Everyone suddenly realized, and then felt lost.
Because they didn't make any similar findings.
In the crowd, Chu Mu looked at the young man in green robe with a calm expression standing on the stage with a somewhat inquiring gaze.
Is this Ji Qingzhou, the one who ranked first in the initial screening?
This is the first time I’ve seen it.
"The third-level spiritual embryonic monster I told you about before is him." Yu Qianqian followed Chu Mu's gaze, vaguely guessed what Chu Mu was thinking, and spoke in a low voice.
Third-order spirit hatchling level?
Chu Mu couldn't help but take a breath.
It’s really a monster.
On the stage, Song Wenchang took the bone fragment and signaled the next person to come on stage.
But after knowing what "harvest" meant, many students who were about to go on stage gave up.
Soon, it was Chu Mu and his companions' turn.
Chu Mu strode onto the stage, took out three pieces of star beast tissue with inscriptions and handed them to Song Wenchang, "Teacher Song, this is what our group has gained."
Song Wenchang looked at Chu Mu meaningfully and spoke with a smile.
“Three pieces, very good.”
There was an uproar and a lot of discussion in the audience.
Ji Qingzhou raised his eyes and glanced at Chu Mu, his brows slightly furrowed.
There are so many more than me.
