Chapter 105
Bang, bang!
Several landing sounds were heard one after another.
Lin You and the other two landed safely with the help of the teleportation beam.
As soon as he landed, Lin You observed the surrounding environment as usual.
I found that this place looked like a rainforest. The trees were slightly yellow, giving it a primitive feel. There were also various difficult-to-identify plants rooted in the black soil.
"This place feels quite dangerous."
Lin You vaguely felt that something was wrong. Although the surroundings were almost silent, the most deadly crisis often lurked behind the calm.
【Tip: This area is just a hair's breadth away from the final destination, the 'Danger Zone'. This is where many B-level missions are performed. Please be sure to complete the missions here!】
【Tip: There is a competitive relationship between the same B-level tasks, and the rewards are unique. The difficulty of the tasks that lag behind will automatically decrease! 】
Two reminders emerged, and Lin You's expression changed slightly.
Is there competition for B-level tasks?
He really didn't know this before.
Xia Mu obviously saw it too, and said solemnly, "This is a bit tricky. I don't know how long this round will last, but since the next round involves the danger zone, in a sense, it's not an exaggeration to say that this round is the final round."
"So, we have to fight for our lives this round."
Lin You also took it seriously. Suddenly, he thought of something and said hurriedly, "Oh, Old Xia, don't you still have two revelation cards? Use them now."
"That's exactly what I meant."
Xia Mu nodded, then took out two cards from the duel disk and gave one to Lin You. He then turned to look at Guo Rui and said with a hint of apology:
"Sorry, Guo Rui, there are no more."
"No, please don't say that."
Guo Rui felt flattered. He had never thought about the revelation card at all. The difficulty of his task was only C-level at the moment, which was not a very difficult task.
After all, there is no competition between tasks, and as long as time is not too tight, it can be completed easily.
Guo Rui said sincerely, "Honestly, I'm already very satisfied that you don't despise me and can team up with me. I understand the principle that the greater the effort, the greater the reward."
Hearing him say this, Lin You couldn't help but smile and said, "Don't worry, I won't treat you unfairly. I'll find a way to get you some points and make sure you can move up."
"That's really unnecessary."
Guo Rui, however, said nonchalantly, "I've now seen through this assessment. Survival is crucial. Even if I don't score many points, as long as I can make it to the end, my ranking will still be good. By now, a lot of freshmen have been eliminated, and there are probably some who are stronger than me."
"As for me, I'll just continue to follow you two obediently and not ask for too much."
Lin You smiled and said nothing. Guo Rui was a very insightful guy.
"Then Lao Xia, let's open the card."
He turned to look at Xia Mu, and after that, Lin You activated the revelation card in his hand.
The effect of the Revelation Card is to provide a key reminder for the task, and the meaning of this card is self-evident.
The card was quickly flipped over, and the surface of the revelation card emitted a hazy purple luster.
The moment this card took effect, Lin You's mind suddenly felt empty and something was vaguely forming in his mind.
Cards last.
Gradually, the feeling became clear in his mind.
In the deep night, a winding giant tree continues to extend high into the sky. This giant tree is exactly the same as the 'Night Tree' on the mission card.
But the difference is that this tree is not rooted in the ground, but is high in the air.
Then from high altitude to higher altitude!
Then, the camera zoomed in from far away.
After the originally extremely long distance was suddenly shortened to almost zero distance, Lin You suddenly discovered that there were several complicated characters engraved on the trunk of this giant tree.
With Lin You's ability, he should not be able to understand those words.
But he didn't know whether it was the effect of the magic field or the revelation card, but Lin You understood the meaning of those words in an instant - Tree of Night!
"That place turned out to be called the Night Tree."
Lin You was delighted. After knowing the exact address, it would be much easier to find the place.
Just rely on the teleportation effect of the 'destination card'.
At this time, noticing that Xia Mu seemed to have used up all his revelation cards, Lin You couldn't help but ask, "How's it going, Old Xia? Any conclusions?"
“Yes, and here is the conclusion.”
"Right here?"
Lin You was a little surprised and asked, "You mean, your mission is in this rainforest?"
This is good news.
No, not necessarily.
The rainforest looks huge and complex, and feels full of danger.
Not only that, there are often many candidates coming to such large areas.
In other words, this place is almost a teleportation starting point, and the competition is obvious.
In comparison, the Night Tree appears more mysterious and perhaps more dangerous.
But at least, it won't be easy to find it.
Xia Mu also understood this and chuckled, "Yeah, it seems I have to ask you for help this time."
"What are you talking about?"
Lin You said unhappily, "Old Xia, I'm not shameless. We both have B-rank missions, and yours is obviously a higher priority. It's likely to involve a lot of competition, so you have to get it as soon as possible."
"No matter how we weigh the pros and cons, it's more reliable to complete your mission first. There's no need to worry about me. I know you're here anyway, and I can come and kill you anytime."
"Besides, I doubt that location is accessible right now. Your revelation card reminded me a lot. The Night Tree might be a special place that can only be reached at night."
Lin You did have some guesses about this, but most of them were just nonsense, and he also made it up so that Xia Mu could complete the task with confidence.
"good."
Xia Mu looked at Lin You, and after a moment, nodded and said, "Then do as you say. I will do my best to complete the task as soon as possible."
"Ahem, excuse me, both of you, but let me interrupt."
Guo Rui suddenly coughed twice and raised his hand to express his opinion.
The two of them immediately looked at him.
Guo Rui quickly said: "Xia Mu, we've been talking for so long, but you still haven't told me what your mission is."
"Sorry, I almost forgot the most important thing."
Xia Mu was also a little embarrassed. The information on the revelation card was not shared, and he had been a little careless. He immediately explained, "My mission is to find a special plant in this rainforest. It's called a plant, but it's actually a plant monster."
"Plant monster?"
Guo Rui looked surprised, as monsters of this race were not common.
Xia Mu nodded and said, "Yes, it's a plant-based monster called 'Phantom Fairy'. It has the natural ability to blend into the environment, so its whereabouts are elusive. Moreover, this monster always attracts the attention and protection of its own kind."
"No matter how strong or weak they are, any plant monster is willing to sacrifice their own lives to protect her safety."
Lin You couldn't help but complain, "Why does it sound a bit like the heroine in a Mary Sue novel?"
"Let's just say so."
Xia Mu smiled and said, "But for us, this is also a good way to find her. As long as we can find a group of plant monsters gathered together and moving inexplicably, it means that there is likely trace of the Phantom Fairy nearby."
"I see. If it involves perception, then it's easy."
After listening to Xia Mu's B-level mission, a smile appeared on Lin You's face, and Chestnut Ball landed on his shoulder and called out softly.
"Coolie~"
That means, leave it to me.
