Chapter 138: Hunting horned apes

Now computers and other electrical equipment can still be used, but they no longer use electricity. In this year, humans have discovered a new energy source - energy crystal.

This kind of energy crystal can directly convert the extracted energy into energy cards. As long as the equipment is slightly modified and an energy card slot is added, it can be used. Soon, petroleum energy will be completely replaced. Most instruments now use It is an energy card that is pollution-free and easy to use.

The daily energy consumption to supply a gathering place is a very huge number. The Awakened Guild has always been tasked with finding energy crystals. This is a long-term task, but so far, except for one person who found an energy crystal vein, no one has been found. , and the man who discovered the energy crystal vein is now a powerful figure in Xianglong City.

After all three people's information was entered into the computer, Tang Cai asked: "If I want to check one person's information, how many contribution points do I need to have permission?"

The female clerk said: "To activate this authority, the contribution point level needs to reach B level, and the contribution points need to reach at least 1 million points."

Qin Lie was dumbfounded. He had just clearly heard other awakened people discussing that killing a level 8 sawtooth tiger only got a dozen contribution points. To reach 1 million points, would it take a long time? !

"Isn't there a faster way to get contribution points?" Qin Lie interrupted, not caring about the gentleman anymore.

The female clerk said: "You can choose to join the awakened team and take on some more difficult tasks. That way you will get more rewards and contribution points."

Qin Lie: "Can only a team of Awakeners take on more difficult tasks? Not individuals?"

The female clerk explained: "Strictly speaking, yes. The contribution points received by the Awakened team will be evenly distributed among the members, which may not be too much, but you can choose to query based on the team's level. The contribution point level Likewise, completing the task is relatively easy.”

When Qin Lie heard that there was such a rule, he immediately said: "We don't need to join the awakened team. We can form a team ourselves. The name of the team is... just..."

Qin Lie suddenly remembered their team uniforms. They already had the team uniforms, and they had to form a team. "Let's call them 'Silver Moon Rangers'. It just so happens that we don't have to buy any team uniforms."

Yanxu didn't know about the team formation, so he looked at Tang Shi inquiringly. Tang Shi only felt a pain in his head.

Qin Lie leaned down to the window excitedly and said, "The three of us will form a team. The team name will be 'Silver Moon Rangers'. Please register."

"Sorry sir, if you want to form a team of awakeners, the minimum number of people is 5." The female clerk told this fact ruthlessly.

Qin Lie was filled with enthusiasm but was poured a basin of ice water on his head, which made his heart feel cold.

Tang Shi knew that the minimum unit for forming an awakener team was five people. Otherwise, if he had already chosen to form a team, would he still need the female clerk to remind him

With the strength of Tang Shi and the others, it was easy to take on team tasks. Tang Shi was not worried about this problem. He was concerned about other things.

"Excuse me, how much does it cost to learn how to make particle cards?" Tang Shi knew very well that at this time, particle cards had just been developed for a month. If you want to learn, you can pay tuition to learn, because it is a new type of consumable card. , so the tuition will not be cheap. Tang Shi also knows this. The 300 gold coins in his hand may not be enough for the three of them to pay the tuition.

The female clerk said: "The tuition fee is 150 gold coins per person, and you can study for one month."

Sure enough, it wasn't enough. The 300 gold coins in Tang Shi's hand had other uses. They couldn't all be spent on tuition. This matter could only wait.

Tang Shi decided to take on the mission first and earn some gold coins and contribution points.

There is a huge screen in the lobby of the Awakener Guild. There are tasks released every day, arranged according to different levels. As long as the task is taken, the column will turn gray. If the task is completed, a column will appear behind it. The word "Done".

Tang Shi took a general glance and only picked the tasks that had the most contribution points and the most gold coins, and did not require a group to be formed.

Tang Shi picked an A-level mission. There were not many people in the hall at this moment. Many awakened people had already accepted the mission and left. However, the A-level mission had always been on the top of the list and no one had taken it. Tang Shi didn't think so. Without thinking, I just took it—kill the horned ape man!

The level of this horned ape-man is unknown. Several powerful Awakener teams were attacked, and no one survived. They were all killed. So the Awakened Guild issued this task, and the reward was very considerable. Because of this generous reward, Daneng was able to impress Tang Shi.

When Tang Shi handed the golden faucet to the female clerk for brushing, the female clerk asked firmly: "Are you really ready to take on this task? You are a newcomer to Xianglong City. You may not understand the situation of this task. In fact, you have just come to Xianglong City. have… "

"Come on, just take this task." Tang Shi affirmed. He knew that the female clerk had good intentions, but he was in a hurry and the female clerk had to assign this task to Tang Shi and wish him good luck.

After the three people left, they went directly to get the car and went out to the city to hunt. In the car, Qin Lie asked: "Why don't you let the beauty finish? Knowing more information will be helpful for our hunting."

"No need, I know this kind of thing." Tang Shi said.

Yanxu motioned for him to continue.

Tang Shi pointed out a road and asked Yan Xu to follow it, "The horned ape man is a humanoid creature from another space. It is large, intelligent, very cunning, and good at setting traps. It has indeed appeared near Xianglong City. "

In the last Tang Dynasty, he had heard that the horned ape-men would appear near the Twilight Forest and ambush the awakened ones who appeared there. He had never seen it. With his strength in the previous life, if he saw it, he might not be able to come back alive, so he wanted to To find the Horned Ape Man, just go directly to the Dusk Forest.

The Twilight Forest originally did not exist on the earth. It suddenly appeared here after the end of the world. However, this is not a strange thing. Now that the entire landscape has undergone earth-shaking changes, there is nothing to make a fuss about when a Twilight Forest suddenly appears.

Approaching the Twilight Forest, Yanxu drove the car to a hidden place and hid it. The three of them got out of the car and activated the Black Moon Stalker leather armor to wear on their bodies. None of them wore armor. They only wore it when hunting. After all, there is a big difference between armor and ordinary clothes. There is no need to wear armor in the gathering place. Those awakened people who wear armor to show off are just to show off.

Tang Shi and the three of them all wore the same armor. It was very conspicuous when worn like this, and the quality was also good. Although human armor casters have appeared now, the quality of the armor cast by humans cannot be compared with that of specialized ones. Compared with the card creatures, especially the legendary orange card casting master Jin Mu in Tang Shi's hand, Tang Shi tried his best not to expose himself too much, which was also a way to save his life.

The three of them walked in the direction of the Twilight Forest. This area was overgrown with weeds. Not far away was a dense and deep Twilight Forest. There was no doubt that it was definitely more dangerous inside than outside. Tang Shi and the others were not prepared to go in. The horned apes were all there. If you see them active around here, they will always appear on their own.

Tang Shi and the other three found a winding path. As soon as they stepped onto the path, they heard a scream in front of them.

"Someone is under attack! Let's go!" Yan Xu reacted immediately and ran quickly following the sound, followed closely by Tang Shi and Qin Lie.

While Yanxu was running, he was still observing the surrounding environment and the road under his feet. Tang Shi had said before that the horned ape man was good at setting traps, so although he was fast, he was also extremely careful. The closer you get, the more you can hear the sounds of fighting and human roars coming from ahead.

Suddenly, Yan Xu narrowed his eyes, and a stone appeared in the middle of the path. The stone was not big, only the size of an adult man's fist. The stone appeared very abruptly. It appeared suddenly in a place where there were only weeds and trees and no mountains. An irregularly shaped stone can easily make people think that it was placed there.

Yanxu stopped, and the two people behind him also stopped. Yanxu motioned to Tang Shi to look, and Tang Shi nodded to show that he had seen it.

The sound of fighting in front has not stopped yet, and the smell of blood can already be smelled in the wind. Regardless of whether this stone is a trap or not, their choice is to go around it.

They walked around the edge of the road, away from the stone, and continued running towards the fight.

When they arrived, they saw at a glance a monster that was at least two meters tall. It walked upright, had an ape-like body, and had brown fur. Its head was like a cow's head but had human-like facial features and cow's ears. Two thick giant horns sprouted from the short neck on both sides. The sharp brown horns stood up arrogantly forward. There were strange patterns on the horns. The strong horned ape-man violently tore apart an awakened person, drawing blood. Spilled all over the floor!

Tang Shi and Yan Xu were already unable to resist such a bloody scene, but Qin Lie frowned in disgust.

They did not rush out directly, but hid in the grass nearby and looked at the battlefield ahead. This group of awakened people was almost dead. There were four mutilated corpses lying on the ground. Only one person was still alive and was close to death. Not far away. He was pierced through the chest by a sharp spear. One end of the spear was pierced on the ground, and the man was held up in mid-air.

The horned ape man walked over, grabbed the human on the spear with his big black hands, grabbed his hair and savagely pulled it out of the spear. The man was already so angry that he struggled reflexively for two times and then stopped moving. , the horned ape man just dragged the man by his hair, not knowing where he was going.

After finally encountering it, Tang Shi and the others would definitely not let this monster leave.

Tang Shi glanced at Qin Lie. Qin Lie understood and immediately punched the ground, "Tentacles of Anger!"

Countless green tentacles as thick as arms emerged from the ground and quickly wrapped around the horned ape-man's legs. Qin Lie's talent was strengthened at the edge of the twilight forest. There were plants everywhere, which was even more powerful for Qin Lie.

Seeing that the horned ape man was entangled, Tang Shi immediately released two wolf soul beasts. The wolf soul beasts roared and rushed forward, pounced on the target and bit them.

The horned ape man's soul was attacked, and he roared in anger, "Moo!"

Angrily, he threw the man in his hand at the wolf soul beast, bent down and grabbed the green tentacles wrapped around his legs, and used brute force to break it. When the wolf soul beast rushed up again, the horned ape-man was half-bent. He clenched his waist, clenched his fists, and let out a weird cry. The weird pattern on the horns suddenly disappeared. The wolf soul beast that rushed towards him was not close, and it was as if it had hit a copper wall and was bounced away. In an instant, a large golden rune appeared in the void in front of the horned ape-man, and the golden rune disappeared in a flash.

Tang Shi was shocked and blurted out, "The Soul Control Rune! It is indeed a monster. The Soul Control Rune can block all soul attacks!"

After saying that, he looked at the monster's two horns as thick as giant bamboo shoots with bright eyes. Those are good things. Those weird patterns on them should be the unique runes of the horned ape people!

At this time, Yanxu's new skill was ready, "Frost - Ice Chain!"

Yanxu's whole body suddenly flashed with golden light, and the surrounding temperature suddenly dropped below zero, and was still cooling down. Suddenly, the ground shook, and several cracks opened, and two bowl-shaped holes flew out from the cracks. The ice chain was locked towards the horned ape-man in the middle!

The horned ape man had just resisted the attack of the wolf soul beast. Before he could take a breath, he was immediately attacked by the ice chain. He was tightly entangled by one chain, and the other one also wrapped around it, wrapping the big monster around in circles. Wrapped into a big rice dumpling made of ice.
