Thinking about this, Chen Huaian walked with the large troops to the adventurer camp at the foot of the snow-capped mountains. He saw Qin who was holding a meeting for the captains of the Knights. In addition to the two captains Youla and Amber, they were also among them. Even Lisa, the librarian, was there. He also found Noelle, the little maid of the Knights who came here early in the morning to help, who was counting supplies. "When did you come here?" Chen Huaian stood next to Noelle, "Did you have a good rest last night?" "Have a good rest. I went to bed very early last night." Noelle ticked the corresponding form. "But you, where were you last night? I didn't see you back." "I have something to go out for," Chen Huaian said with a smile, "I'm sorry, I didn't even report it to you." "No," Noelle waved his hand quickly, "I'm not asking where you have been, but it's always worrying if you don't come back all night." "So you were with Mona last night?" "I had dinner with Mona last night, and then I cleaned up for you and helped Mona put on new door locks." "Sorry to trouble you," Chen Huaian shook Noelle's hand quietly. There were too many people nearby, so it was difficult to do anything extraordinary. "It's okay," Noelle blushed a little, "I'm your maid, this is what I should do..."
"I can't take Noelle's kindness for granted. By the way, Noelle and I will team up later when we take risks. The two of us will be in a team." Teams can be formed for today's assessment, and teams of up to three people can be formed. Candidates who hold the Eye of God are usually the target of being hugged, and Noelle is the most famous maid with strange powers. In the past, Noelle would have been criticized for her strength at this time. Confident candidates were surrounded. Of course, Noelle didn't even agree. After all, with her strength, it would be unfair to other candidates to form a team with others. But there are exceptions. Facing Chen Huaian's invitation to form a team, she quickly nodded in agreement. The two chatted for a while. After Chen Huaian rejected many candidates who came to talk to Noelle, Qin also finished the meeting with the team leaders and asked the candidates to gather and hold a safety meeting. The general idea is to ask everyone to do their best and not to be brave. When encountering dangers that cannot be dealt with, you can light the fireworks sticks in the emergency supplies and wait for rescue. Finally, coats and emergency supplies to keep out the cold were distributed, and then the Knights of the West Wind led teams composed of the candidates themselves to various starting points. After everyone is in place, wait for the signal smoke in the direction of the camp to rise, and start heading towards the snow-capped mountains. Chapter 68 Can’t take the second blow The temperature in the snow-capped mountains is very low, and the snow that makes it difficult to walk, coupled with the all-pervasive cold wind, blows on the face like a knife, which consumes a lot of energy of the candidates, let alone completing the task. ——Search and rescue "adventurers" who are lost in the snowy mountains and bring them back to the camp at the foot of the mountain. Fortunately for Chen Huaian, he had the help of the potion given by Lisa. After drinking the red stamina potion and the blue cold-proof potion, the harsh weather in the snowy mountains had almost no effect on him. The only thing that can be said to be difficult is the snow on the ground, which makes it somewhat troublesome to get on the road. Looking up, another red smoke rose, and some candidates voluntarily quit because they could no longer hold on. I wonder how Noelle is doing. Is she supposed to be fine? Unfortunately, they encountered a snowstorm just now, and the two of them accidentally got separated. After the snowstorm passed, the footprints on the ground and the traces of the elemental power disappeared completely, leaving no trace behind. He is still somewhat inexperienced. He would have known how to tie the two people together with a rope... It is useless to think about it now. It is better to find the "adventurer" and end the assessment as soon as possible.
I took out the map distributed when I set out, tried hard to identify it a few times, but gave up. There were no obvious markers and I couldn't tell where I was. The map that comes with the system is useless. After all, the Seven Heavens Statue in Longji Snow Mountain has not been unlocked, and it is still gray. It's so annoying. I should have come here yesterday to unlock the Seven Heavens Statue in Longji Snow Mountain. I was careless. After all, it was this 9+ game that paralyzed him. Chen Huaian sighed, put the map away, and decided to walk around first. If he couldn't complete the main mission, he still had to complete the side mission to clear out a certain number of monsters. The threatening monsters on the mountainside and periphery of the snow-capped mountains have been cleaned up by the West Wind Knight a few days ago. Now there are only ordinary Qiuqiu and giant ice slimes. There are no adventurers who can gain points by cleaning up these monsters. Just defeat ten monsters. It should be said that I was very lucky. As soon as I turned a corner, I met a few scattered Qiuqiu people. I can only say that you are unlucky. ...... The ice-type Qiuqiu people in the snowy mountains are at least several times stronger than the ordinary Qiuqiu people they encountered before because of the home field bonus, but they are also limited. After a brief battle, four Qiuqiu masks were harvested, and there were still six Qiuqiu people left to pass. Continuing forward, he then saw the entrance to a cave. Is this the Crystal Cave? Chen Huaian withdrew without hesitation. According to what Qin said in the meeting before departure, the examination venue was limited to the foothills and mountainside of Longji Snow Mountain, and places such as the top of the mountain and caves were not included. There are many monsters inside and they are extremely dangerous. No one knows what is inside. Chen Huaian was not an adventurer seeking death, and he had no interest in such a large and deep cave. He only likes narrow and small gaps. Exiting the cave and walking down, he finally saw the man-made road. He looked around again and saw a lake as beautiful as sapphire on the right. After he had a clear landmark, he took out the map and found him easily. Current location. It was a bit far away from the location of the nearest "adventurer" marked on the map, so Chen Huaian decided to go to the lake to have a look. If nothing unexpected happens, this lake should be the lake where Yula often swims. Although this lake is not a small pool like a swimming pool in the game. But it's not that big, at most it's the size of one or two football fields, and it still doesn't break away from the category of a pond. Seeing wisps of steam rising from the lake, I stretched out my hand to test it and found that it was warm. This is a hot spring? Good guy, no wonder Youla likes to swim in the snowy mountains. It turns out to be because of this. But when it comes to hot springs, it’s hard not to think of Mondstadt’s Hot Spring Festival... Fortunately, there is no such festival in Mondstadt, otherwise it would be too uncomfortable. Thinking of this, Chen Huaian took off his coat and was about to take a bath in the hot spring to relax. His hair suddenly stood up.
draw sword. "Chong!" The sound of gold and iron clashing broke the tranquility of the lakeshore, and the air waves generated by the collision spread to all directions, setting off large snow waves. Chen Huaian only felt an irresistible force coming from the iron sharp thorn in his hand, which made his arm numb. Then, like the surrounding snowflakes, they were knocked high into the air and landed on the snow, rolling around a few times. Before Chen Huaian could stand up from the snow, there was another sound of pine trees, like the wind blowing through the trees. The cold current caused by this moment actually covered Chen Huaian's face with a thin layer of ice and snow. When he came to his senses again, a gorgeous ice blue sword was pointing at him from a distance. Chen Huaian also saw clearly who suddenly attacked him, even the West Wind Knight who was wearing light knight uniforms in the ice and snow. Yula. "It's you," Chen Huaian breathed a sigh of relief, and his tense muscles began to relax, "Is this how the Ullens family greets you?" "The supervising examiner who secretly follows the examinee while he or she is relaxing to conduct a sneak attack on the examinee to test the response speed is just a hidden part of the assessment." Yula said, thrusting her big sword into the hard frozen soil beside her, and continued: "You are obviously still under assessment, so forget it if you don't keep enough vigilance, but you want to soak in the hot springs. If what you are searching for and rescuing is real The adventurer might have frozen to death by now." "Why let down your guard?" Chen Huaian tried to stand up, but a fall on his butt just now made his legs and feet numb, so he had to stretch out his hand to Youla and motioned for her to pull him up. After Youla pulled him up and patted the snowflakes on her face and body, she continued: "Didn't I block your sword? Doesn't this mean that I have been vigilant enough?" "But you still lost," Youla crossed her chest and said proudly, "You can't even block my second sword." I'm not a little windy man who can blow dozens or twenty versions of the Five-Spice Knife with one blow. Chen Huaian complained in his heart and then looked at Youla with disdain, withdrew his Iron Blade and said: "Are you, the captain of the guerrilla team, more interesting than me? Do you want to ask Captain Qin when I started learning the West Wind Swordsmanship?" "If you lose, you lose. It's useless if you're not convinced." "But on the other hand, I passed the "Testing Candidates' Response Speed" item, right? Are there any extra points? How many points?" Yura was silent, what's the matter with this feeling that I obviously won but lost? This guy is not as honest as he looks. "Fifty," Youla gave the score fairly, "Although I hold grudges, I will not give you less than you deserve." "Up to fifty?" "Yes." "That's not bad," Chen Huaian was satisfied with this. Thanks to the score that came to his door, he was now only a Qiuqiu man and a giant ice slime away from [-] points. So I can only say sorry to the "adventurers" waiting for rescue. After the two of them finished chatting about receiving swords and scores, they were silent for a short while before Chen Huaian continued: "Aren't you leaving yet? You don't need to conduct sneak attacks on other candidates to test your resilience?"
Chapter 69 The Path of Redemption "I am the supervisor and examiner of the assessment," Youla said with a serious expression, "I have the right to supervise you to complete the assessment seriously." "Am I not serious yet?" Chen Huaian asked back, continuing to do the unfinished business that was interrupted by Youla just now. ——Take off your clothes and relax in the hot spring. "There's no rule that candidates can't take a dip in a hot spring to relax after being physically and mentally exhausted after snowstorms, long journeys, fighting monsters, and dealing with sneak attacks from supervising examiners, right?" "No, but the right thing to do is to find a safe place to shelter from the wind, light a bonfire and make a pot of hot tea instead of soaking in a hot spring." “But isn’t a hot spring more relaxing?” "You are treating the assessment negatively. I will write the truth in the report. When the time comes, the referees will lower their sensitivity to you. This will be very detrimental to you in the final interview." Is it?But do you know that Captain Qin and Administrator Lisa are my people? "Let me tell you, can't you pretend you didn't see it? Or is there a limit to your relaxation time? If that's the case, I don't mind you watching. The most I can do is make a pot of tea." As he spoke, Chen Huaian put his fingers on the buttons of his base shirt and took off his shirt in front of Youla without any scruples. "Don't go too far!" Youla was so frightened by Chen Huaian's bold behavior that she quickly turned around, took a deep breath, and continued: "I have recorded this grudge. I hope you will not be assigned to my team in the future, otherwise you will be better off." Did Yula mean that she would not record his hot spring bathing in the report, and that she also expected him to join her guerrilla team in the future? This woman is so twisted. "Thank you," Chen Huaian said sincerely, "and the fifty cents you just gave me." "Don't get me wrong, I didn't give you the points, you got them with your own strength." After saying this, Yola didn't stop any longer. She pulled out the big sword she had inserted on the side, brought up a piece of snow mist, and turned into an ice-blue afterimage and disappeared from the field of vision. You run so fast, why don't you stay and soak in the hot springs together? Chen Huaian took off the rest of his clothes and jumped into the warm lake water. Since the assessment was still going on, Chen Huaian didn't stay in the pool for long. He was still in the assessment process, so it was enough to simply swim for one round. Find the last Qiuqiu person as soon as possible so that you can leave this cold snow mountain as soon as possible. But when Chen Huaian returned to the place where he kept his clothes, weapons, and backpack, it was empty. Where are my things? The iron spike sent by Qin, the potion sent by Lisa, the map, and the firework stick for rescue are all gone! The panic spread in Chen Huai'an's heart, causing him to subconsciously use his elemental vision to detect possible traces left behind. Then he saw Aponia sitting on a stone not far away with his legs crossed. No, it should be Rosalia.
It's just that Rosalia's current outfit is too that, with a thin nun's uniform, smooth and slender thighs, and a milk cap that is ready to drink. With such a decoration, it is hard not to think of another game from the same manufacturer, which is also a nun character that has nothing to do with purity and conservatism. Chen Huaian's lost clothes and equipment were next to her. There was also another large black trench coat, which I guess was worn by Rosalia to cover up her impure outfit. Seeing Chen Huaian finally looking at her, Rosalia jumped down from the rock, took a leafy branch with her backhand to cover their things, clasped her hands in front of her chest, and slowly walked toward Chen Huaian. Come.
