Huang Tian suggested: "In order to increase efficiency, let's divide into three groups."
Zhang Mu agreed.
The mercenary groups of Huang Quan, Dragon Soul, and Fengyue were mainly divided into three teams, starting from different directions. Zhang Mu chose the south. When he left the public airport in the wild and walked into the vibrant forest, everyone couldn't believe their eyes.
The sky is clear, the sun is bright, and the white clouds are lying leisurely in the sky.
It's been a long time since we've been out in the sun. The warm wind, mixed with the smell of soil and vegetation, and a slight smell of decaying branches and leaves, makes people feel comfortable and happy.
Emerald Mountains and Despair Icefields.
They are simply two worlds from different planes.
Zhang Mu led his mercenaries to overcome obstacles and entered a forest that was denser and more prosperous than the Blood Jungle. The richness of species and the complexity of the environment were beyond imagination, making it a paradise for life. After everyone took a few steps, they discovered a few prey, several strong stags, which were only as strong as gold elites, but were as high as level 32.
The mercenary easily shot the stag and collected the venison and antlers.
Not far away, we encountered another group of wild boars.
Zhang Mu couldn't even see his level. The wild boar was more than 5 levels higher than him, probably around level 35. The level 35 wild boar group was really pitifully weak, and only had the strength of a gold elite. A few of the leaders looked like boss monsters. The mercenaries killed all the wild boars in a few rounds of attacks.
Another lot of low-grade ingredients and leather.
Zhang Mu led the team forward and soon hunted two giant bears. The giant bears were slightly more powerful and were golden bosses around level 38. There are very few monsters on the Despair Icefield, but once you encounter a monster, in most cases there will be a few lord-level ones.
Traveling through the forests of the Emerald Mountains, it is difficult to encounter lord-level beings.
Probably the worse the environment, the stronger the surviving monsters will be. The Emerald Mountains are rich in resources. Most of the monsters that grow up in this environment where there is no need to worry about food and drink are very weak. Even if they can grow to a very high level comfortably, their own abilities are not very high.
Although the monster level is low, the experience value is several times higher due to the cross-level relationship. In addition, the number of kills is large, and the experience is quite high. No wonder Xue Ling said that the Jade Mountain is a suitable place for training. In this environment, the harvest in one day is higher than that in the Despair Icefield in five days!
Du Rongrong rode a big bear and picked a fruit from a tree. It turned out to be an F+ grade ingredient. She took a bite and said vaguely, "We have been here for a long time and we haven't seen a single lord monster's hair. Look at me." He said, this forest is full of high-level but very weak scum, and if there are too many people in the team, we won’t be able to gain experience, so we might as well divide them into groups of 4 or 5.”
Lei Ming said to Zhang Mu: "Rong Rong is right. I don't know what the situation is like in the distance, but there should be no danger when hunting in the nearby area."
Zhang Mu agreed, "Okay, let's divide into a few more groups."
Lei Ming, Fatty, Lin Caiyan, and Chen Tingting form a group. Lei Ming is cautious and can easily block the Golden Lord. Fatty's ability to deal damage, plus powerful treatment and assistance, ensures nothing goes wrong.
Ye Qianqiu, Xie, Qin Xiaoshi, and Sanggou are in two groups. Ye Qianqiu is a fighting maniac with sharp senses like a beast. Scorpion is good at reconnaissance, counter-reconnaissance, assassination, etc. Sanggou has strong melee output, and with an auxiliary, it can Qin Xiaoshi, who is treating, is also a very stable combination.
Zhang Mu, Leng Yun and Du Rongrong were divided into 3 groups.
"The monster level is not high, but the level gap is too big. It can also make up for the strength gap, so we can't be careless." Zhang Mu looked up and said, "Okay, let's start working separately and contact each other once a day. Unless there are special circumstances, it's best not to Go away."
"yes!"
The three teams dispersed from each other.
Zhang Mu took Leng Yun, Du Rongrong, and two auxiliary Huangquan mercenaries to explore all the way south. Zhang Mu can resist and fight, and Leng Yun's violent output is strong. Although the monster is suppressed by level, it is still vulnerable.
This vibrant forest is a paradise for killing monsters and leveling up. Although there are no good things dropped, it can make people improve quickly.
Zhang Mu spent three days killing hundreds of monsters, so much so that he no longer wanted to collect materials. Most of the monsters are at level 35-40. The experience value is doubled, and the upgrades soar like a rocket. Zhang Mu and Leng Yun both reached level 29, and Du Rongrong also reached level 28. They were only short of about 20% experience to reach level 29.
According to the current improvement speed, you can definitely reach level 30 in two weeks of training.
As night falls, the forest is still lively at night, with insects chirping and birds chirping everywhere, and beasts roaring incessantly. After several days of experience in killing monsters, everyone has become convinced that there is no particularly powerful being in the forest, at least within a few hundred miles.
Zhang Mu, Leng Yun and Du Rongrong gathered around a warm bonfire.
"We killed 7 groups of monsters today, about 170 in total!" Du Rongrong licked her fingers to point out the results of the day, "In addition, I dug up two five-color grass, a century-old ginseng, and a three-leaf Ganoderma lucidum... It's really a big harvest!"
Leng Yun sat next to her, her magic robe slightly torn but basically intact. She said with a bright voice: "There are a huge number of monsters in the forest. I didn't expect that there are many precious materials. These heavenly materials and earthly treasures can increase a small amount of attributes." The effect, if you use it to make elixirs, the effect will probably be even better!"
Du Rongrong shouted: "I dug out that ginseng plant, you are not allowed to get involved!"
Du Rongrong dug up a century-old ginseng. Eating it can permanently increase your physical fitness by 5 points. Du Rongrong was so happy about this. She didn't expect that digging up a ginseng tree at random would turn out to be a rare elixir.
"Don't worry, no one will compete with you!"
Zhang Mu roasted several large pieces of mutton until they were golden brown, with drops of fragrant fat dripping down, and each person got a piece. It was considered tonight's dinner. This place is completely different from the Icefield of Despair. The most indispensable thing is food. Edible magical herbs and fruit trees are everywhere. Most of the monsters killed and the meat collected are thrown away because the backpack cannot fit at all.
Roasted lamb, charred on the outside and tender on the inside, with a great taste.
Leng Yun ate the meat gracefully with small mouthfuls, the light of the bonfire reflected on her face, quiet and beautiful, and suddenly took a deep breath and said: "If one day, the human race is strong enough, maybe it can also occupy a place like the Emerald Mountains , and live a peaceful and peaceful life from now on.”
Du Rongrong's mouth was full of oil, and she said with a loud voice: "Isn't this simple? We have developed well, and we can just fight from the ice field. Am I right? Wood!"
Zhang Mu shrugged and made no comment.
Leng Yun looked at Zhang Mu through the firelight, her eyes as calm as water. It would be great if the human race could really settle down and integrate into this world, without being toyed with by the master and living a wandering life. Will this day really come
At this time, the woods ahead trembled.
Something is approaching.
Zhang Mu quickly grabbed the weapon next to him.
"smell good!"
A voice suddenly echoed in my mind.
"who is it!"
Zhang Mu's expression darkened.
Leng Yun also held the staff, and she also heard the sound just now. To be precise, she didn't hear it, but felt it. Sound is not transmitted through material as a medium, but it echoes directly in people's hearts. This has never been seen before, and it is definitely not an ordinary guy.
The woods parted and a dark figure stepped out.
[Hale Crystal Man] (Unknown), level? ? ? ,Attributes? ? ? … Introduction: The creatures living in the western part of the continent have powerful psychic powers and can communicate with any species.
Zhang Mu could clearly see the appearance of the visitor. He was a race he had never seen before.
His body shape is similar to that of a human race, but he does not have a normal body. He has a black crystal structure from head to toe, just like a creature carved out of a piece of black crystal. Although it has a head, it has no facial features. The entire head is oval-shaped, with several rings of light surrounding it, constantly rotating.
"who are you?"
Zhang Mu did not take action because he had an intuition that this person was extremely powerful. Even if all the members of the mercenary union were put together, they would be far from his opponent.
The Heirjing man waved his hand, and a neutral voice echoed in the hearts of several people: "I come from the west of the continent. I passed through here to do some small things. Don't be nervous. In fact, I am a pacifist!"
Du Rongrong looked at the strange man in front of her for a long time before saying, "You... are you a robot?"
The Halite man said, "I am a silicon-based life form. In a sense, I am similar to a mechanical life form. However, the mechanical life form is a race of intelligent reconstruction. I am a primitive life form like you and I also belong to the elements. A kind of life.”
Can such a creature be derived from nature
Zhang Mu put down his weapon, "Why are you here?"
"I was passing by the Emerald Mountains and stopped for a trivial matter. I accidentally discovered you magical beings, so I came here to say hello." The Heirjing people showed no hostility, "You are the human race, right?"
"You know us?"
"No, the psychic ability of Heirjing people can read thoughts. Of course, under normal circumstances, we can only read superficial thoughts."
"Can you communicate using psychic powers?"
Du Rongrong felt incredible.
"Yes, this is the talent of Heirjing people." This weirdo came over, "It's really delicious barbecue. Your sensory enjoyment is also a kind of spiritual communication. If only I had a mouth!"
What a bad joke.
"Haier Jingren, how did you show up?" Du Rongrong looked around, "Is there a station near here?"
"I have a personal ship."
The Hale crystal man pointed to the sky, and everyone looked up. Under the black sky, an object appeared out of nowhere, with a radius of 300 meters. It was a perfect circle without any edges and corners. The crystal stone made the surface and reflected the faint moonlight. If it hadn't been introduced by the Hale crystal man himself, people would have regarded it as a giant gem hanging in the air.
"Interesting ship!"
"The Heirjing people's technology is quite famous on the mainland!"
A large spaceship suddenly appeared overhead without any notice!
