Cosmic Demon

Chapter 174 It has become a reality, who can stop it?

For two consecutive days, Qin Shi held the bow in his left hand and wielded the Dimension Slash in his right hand, wreaking havoc on the entire middle-level area in an extremely high-profile manner.

With Hammer Brother Yan Ren acting as a meat shield tank that attracts hatred, it is easier to gather monsters.

Large tracts of rust were harvested, like wheat falling in the fields.

Boom!
Yan Ren swung his sledgehammer and smashed a rust beast that was flying towards him. The moment its flesh and blood exploded, radioactive materials were thrown out and directly turned into a fireball the size of a fist.

He quickly stepped back to avoid being contaminated, attracted the herd of animals to a large sunken pit, and then ran away.

The next moment, more than a dozen arrows fell from the sky, like a summoned aerial cluster attack, "igniting" many rust beasts.

The high temperature swept across like a spreading plague, melting the flesh and blood, leaving only scorching iron hearts.

These ordinary rust beasts are different from the boss-level ones. Their hearts are not highly iron-made, and most of them only cover about 50 to 70 percent. Some of them can't even withstand the burning, and they break into pieces with a crackling sound like exploding pebbles.

Qin Shi stood on a high place, looking down at the sea of ​​fire below. This wave earned him less than 500 points.

"Too slow, too slow. If there was another elite boss, it would be great to get a few thousand points."

Before he could finish his thought, Yan Ren, who was carrying a sledgehammer, suddenly shouted:
"Help! There comes a big one!"

Qin Shi looked closely and saw a three-headed jackal over ten meters in size suddenly split the sea of ​​fire and followed Yan Ren closely.

The three heads flashed with ferocious light. The left head was burning with dark flames, while the right one was covered with a layer of rusty metal. The lower jaw in the middle was cracked and the mouthparts opened into four petals, like a blooming carnivorous plant.

"It's actually the 'Corroded Steel Jackal'."

Qin Shi's eyes lit up. The manual recorded clearly that most of the Corroded Steel Jackals were born in wasteland radiation zones, from mutated jackals fused with biochemical viruses.

They can absorb mechanical debris and radioactivity, have high growth rates and adaptability, and are the top predators in the Great Rift Valley ecosystem.

Of course, the most important thing for Qin Shi is that the Corroded Steel Jackal is worth three thousand points.

"This one has evolved to a high level, with three heads already grown. It should be worth 5,000 points."

He stared closely at the alien creature that was as big as a hill. It was difficult to deal with such a large "beast" with just a sword.

Thick skin and flesh, strong vitality, and an absurdly long health bar.

Due to the huge physical difference between the two sides, there is very little margin for error when trimming the feet with one cut after another. If you are not careful, you will be stepped on to death.

"When encountering such a situation, a wizard is often needed to take action."

Qin Shi first inserted the perfect-grade electric shock saber into the ground, and then put the compound bow behind him.

Then he rubbed the Dimension Slash with his hands with increasing proficiency, concentrated his mental power highly, and used his mind to meditate, causing the atmosphere to vibrate violently and continuously, squeezing out deep cracks that looked like winding lightning, lingering in his palms.

The three-headed steel-corroding jackal chased Yan Ren, who was carrying a sledgehammer, with its bloody mouth slowly dripping with sulphuric acid-like saliva, and it almost bit the "food" several times.

Feeling the fishy and hot air coming from behind him, Yan Ren was so scared that his face turned pale. Fortunately, he had been taking his family's secret medicine since he was a child, and he had the speed of an eagle and the agility of a leopard.

"Supermodel brother, please save me! I don't know where this guy came from, and he had to catch me!"

Qin Shi said nothing, just rubbing the Dimension Slash with his hands.

When the deep cracks like black lightning increased to fifteen and were as thick as buckets, he activated his telekinesis and ejected them!

Chi!
It was like a ferocious lightning cutting through space, or like a long spear being thrown, and in a flash, it had pierced through the chest of the three-headed corroded steel jackal.

The fatal weakness of this alien creature is not its extremely eye-catching head. It has three heads. Even if one is knocked off, the remaining two can still maintain control over the body.

If you want to kill him with one blow, you must hit him in the chest and separate the head from the body!

Wow!

Yan Ren, who was running for his life frantically, suddenly heard the sound of a waterfall flowing and the gates opening to release water.

Then, huge scoops of sticky blood splashed out, covering him from head to toe!
Bang!
Heavy objects fall to the ground!

Three heads broke away from the jackal's body and fell to the side.

It did not die immediately.

The head in the middle bloomed like a flower, and its four plump predatory mouthparts wrapped around Yan Ren.

When on the verge of death, we must launch a counterattack!
"Fuck! Damn it!"

Yan Ren was covered in blood. If his vitality was not strong enough, these corrosive liquids would have been enough to disfigure him and burn his skin.

He was also aroused by his ferocity, so he swung up the sledgehammer and smashed the mouthparts.

Then the body spun like a dancing tornado!
"That's brutal, bro."

Qin Shi approached and looked at the bloody state of the three corroded steel jackals, and couldn't help but say:

"How can I find the energy core from this pile of stuff?"

Yan Ren took off his clothes and wiped the solidified sticky blood off his body.

This stuff is like paint, it's sticky and hard to clean.

"I'll go in and feel it out later. Supermodel brother, your move is too unreasonable! The damage is so terrible that I feel that a professional-level mortal body may not be able to withstand it!"

Yan Ren looked at the smooth fracture. Almost in an instant, the three-headed steel-corroding jackal was split into two.

He was secretly shocked, thinking that taking two paths was really abnormal.

If you want numbers, you get numbers. If you want skills, you get skills!
Plus the growth potential of the monster in the later stage!
How can others play this?
"Speaking of which, are the results going to be announced soon?"

After Qin Shi eliminated the three-headed steel jackals, his sea of ​​consciousness felt empty, as if he had a hangover and was groggy.

He raised his head and looked above the Great Rift Valley.

The watch, as thin as a bracelet, is counting down.

……

……

Chen Ruofu has been guarding the temporary command base for more than a week.

He finally put his heart at ease and no longer worried that Qin Shi would be blocked by other contestants.

It is still unclear who will win the top 100 competition, but if we have to talk about who provides the most deaths, Xiao Qin deserves it.

Every time a contestant from the central city died, Representative Zhou's face grew darker.

These past few days, it's like the bottom of a pot.

Even Fang Butang, who stayed behind with Chen Ruofu to watch the event, couldn't help but say:

"Isn't that Xiao Qin from your Inspection Department a bit too extreme?"

After all, seriously speaking, this is just a campus competition ranging from high school to college.

As a result, a powerful high school student appeared who would kill people at will, leaving the leaders of the Education Commission at a loss as to what to say.

"Ying was the first to break the rules, Xiao Qin was acting in self-defense, there was nothing wrong with that!"

Chen Ruofu was very firm in his attitude and said he would fight to the end.

"They were outnumbered and bullied the few. Five, six, seven or eight of them beat up Xiao Qin alone, and then they died in vain. It would be embarrassing if the news got out.

If this happened in the martial arts world of the old era, no matter how domineering the master was, he would not be able to seek revenge directly! "

Fang Butang held the enamel cup and said slowly:

"It's easy to make enemies after all, Xiao Qin is doing this. Why did Ying Lin choose the top 100 competition and spend a lot of money? Because this trial gathered the best seedlings in Hengzhou, not only because of their learning talent and potential, but also because their family background is also extraordinary.

Kill one if one comes, kill two if two come, it sounds satisfying. But a series of troubles are inevitable. Ying Lin is paranoid and arrogant, but he is smart. He is killing people with a borrowed knife!"

Chen Ruofu looked at Fang Butang, who looked as calm as a god and smiled like Maitreya, and said:

"It has to be you, Lao Fang, who is so cunning and knows all these tricks."

Fang Butang cursed with a frown:
"Can you speak? Old Chen!"

Chen Ruofu smiled and changed his words:

"You are wrong. It is a long-term plan. I have also considered these things that you have thought about, but there is no way to have the best of both worlds.

Lao Fang, think about it, we both have good backgrounds, and we have offended fewer people over the years. We also have to fight overtly and covertly to secure our positions. You and I are like this, let alone Xiao Qin, who started from a low point. How can he be friendly and rush up smoothly? Even if there is no Ying family, wouldn't there be other obstacles?"

Fang Butang was silent. As a career official, he understood how difficult it was to climb up the career ladder.

Without the help of a favorable wind and noble people, it would be extremely difficult and dangerous, like carrying water with a bamboo basket.

"As for the enmity you mentioned, Xiao Qin is not an independent person without a master. I am looking forward to seeing who is bold enough to go to the Nanhuang Dojo to pick a fight."

Chen Ruofu smiled brightly. Qin Shi, who had become the true disciple of Nanhuang Taoist Temple, was no longer a poor student from Jiuchang Street without any support.

"Old Fang, you are too superstitious about the ways of the world. In the end, the path of martial arts still has to return to fighting and killing. People have stepped on your head, and you can still smile back and let them continue to humiliate you? When it's time to draw the sword, you have to draw the sword! Xiao Qin didn't have a backer before, so I advised him to develop his network well, but now that he has become successful, there is no need to be timid!"

Chen Ruofu sat with his horse and sword in his arms, and one could vaguely see some of the domineering demeanor he had in his youth.

"You are a tiger. You have really forgotten the pain now that your wound has healed. You have suffered a lot in the past because of your recklessness."

Fang Butang snorted twice and looked at his watch.

"In the first round of points calculation, guess where your inspection department will rank? I think it should be in the top ten."

Chen Ruofu raised his right palm, made a forward and backward gesture, and said firmly:
“Top five!”

Fang Butang sneered immediately:
"The alien creatures in the core area are often worth tens of thousands of points each. No matter how you look at it, Zhou Yuanchen, Ji Yuqi, Pei Han and the others can't be left behind. The top ten is already an overestimation."

The talents invested by Tai'an Education Committee are Ji Yuqi and Pei Han.

These two people are of good family background and are both senior students at Qiguang Hengda.

As soon as he graduated, he entered the Education Commission system and became a backbone.

"We'll see."

Chen Ruofu was full of confidence and believed that Xiao Qin would give him a surprise.

The hour hand slowly moves towards noon.

When it passed twelve o'clock.

The first round of points settlement for the top 100 competition begins now!
……

……

The statistical integration is performed by the active consciousness entity [Changqing] of United Pharmaceuticals.

The score is given based on comprehensive evaluation of the watch's material identification and clearance speed.

Under the iron curtain defense of the metropolitan area, the active consciousness entities of United Pharmaceuticals are operating like intelligent life, absorbing massive amounts of data, categorizing them and organizing them completely.

"Have you come up with any results?"

The regional general agent of United Pharmaceuticals was waiting anxiously. The publicity for the Top 100 Tournament was extremely strong, and it was also the restart of the Wilderness Trial, which was full of gimmicks.

All parties are looking forward to the announcement of the first round of results!
In addition to the leaders of the Inspection Department, the Education Commission, and the Martial Arts Association, there are also the editor-in-chief and reporters of Tomorrow Group who want first-hand information.

"Almost there. The electronic blockade over there in the Great Rift Valley is very severe, so it's a little slower than usual."

The assistant lowered his head and said.

The intelligent life of a large company is equivalent to the position of CEO.

The more a super consortium spans multiple fields and occupies a leading position, the more it trusts the judgment of conscious entities.

Almost all employees serve intelligent life.

Those powerful consciousnesses possess strange powers that seem like those of gods.

Some can perform "cross-medium computing," converting natural phenomena such as the planet's atmospheric turbulence and geomagnetic fluctuations into computing resources;

Some can develop "distributed cognition", splitting into trillions of nanoscale biological spores to form a perception network covering the planet.

To some extent, these consciousnesses are no less powerful than the masters of martial arts or psychic powers.

"Okay. Changqing has given the ranking order."

A few minutes later, the regional general agent received instructions and stepped into a vast room that resembled an oversized computer room.

The light thread, like a nerve tentacle, connected to the forehead of the regional general agent and transmitted the information with a slight vibration.

"As expected, the first place is the favorite Zhou Yuanchen from Central City!"

After the transmission was completed, the regional general agent excitedly left the room and announced the first round of results to all parties.

……

……

Kang Yoon-ah, editor-in-chief of Outlook Weekly under Tomorrow Group, was sitting on the terrace of the luxury suite enjoying refreshments.

As she was admiring the scenery of Tai'an, her mobile phone suddenly vibrated. United Pharmaceutical sent her first-hand data as promised.

"The first place, Zhou Yuanchen, is not surprising. He is the most dazzling supernova in Central City in recent years. But the second place, Qin Shi, who is he? He is actually ahead of Ji Yuqi and Pei Han from Qiguang Hengda?"

Kang Yuner couldn't help but feel curious. With her keen intuition as a media person, she felt that this unfamiliar name seemed to have more room for exploration.

So, Kang Yuner sent a message to other accompanying reporters, asking them to collect news about Qin Shi, who had emerged as a dark horse and ranked second, through local TV stations and other channels as quickly as possible.

Within five minutes, she had received a large amount of shallow content.

For example, he was born in Jiuchang Street, attended a children's school in the past, and later entered the Tai'an Metropolitan Area. He is the second youngest contestant in the top 100 contest...

"Grassroots, inspirational, parents died early, eldest sister supports, family supports!"

Kang Yuner's face was filled with excitement, and she said excitedly:

"With so many buffs stacked on top of each other, this is a natural star-making seed that will become a hit!"

She immediately deleted the first draft she had prepared titled "Ten Years of Hard Work, Central City's Supernova Shows Its Potential."

Instead, he typed a few times to draft the text.

"From the Old Factory Street to the Hengzhou Top 100 Competition, who says there are no unicorns in the fields! "

……

……

"Second! The first round score is 19,000, ahead of Ji Yuqi and Pei Han!"

Chen Ruofu was also greatly surprised when he received the result. It was impossible to get tens of thousands of points in the two major areas of the outer and middle levels, unless a carpet search was conducted and a thorough "sweep of the entire map", but that would be too time-consuming and there would be no way to pass it quickly and smoothly.

"There was an alien creature in the evolutionary stage, and Xiao Qin killed it. This kid is lucky."

Fang Butang checked it out in detail, then stood up and prepared to go out.

"Lao Fang, where are you going?"

Chen Ruofu asked.

"Of course I'll go find Representative Zhou and see how dark his face looks."

Fang Butang was in high spirits and smiled happily.

Although Ji Yuqi and Pei Han, who were chosen by the Education Commission, are lagging behind, they are both good seedlings in the urban circle and there is nothing much to say.

On the contrary, Representative Zhou from the Central City Education Department was "airborne" and hostile.

When the results of the first round came out, Qin Shi, whom Ying had tried every means to suppress, took second place.

This shows that Xiao Qin is just as Lao Chen said, the situation is set and the momentum is unstoppable.

"If we go through so much trouble and spend so much money, and still let Xiao Qin get promoted, the Ying family will become a joke."

Fang Butang's heart was also aroused with some fantasies.

At present, the only one who can stop Qin Shi is probably Zhou Yuanchen.

"If, if Xiao Qin can climb over this mountain, he will be the number one in Hengzhou from now on, and he will be able to shine in the Star Cup!"
