Nevertheless, the profession change mission didn’t dampen their enthusiasm. On the contrary, it made them feel like they had been injected with energy.
After all, it was only a challenge if it was difficult!
If it was too easy, it would be for everyone and not be very attractive. It was just like the hundreds of new fashions released before. In just one week, few people wore them.
Even if they wore it, they wore separate items. Otherwise, it would be too easy to collide outfits with others.
Since fighting interstellar beasts had a chance to drop the event boxes, the number of players and mercenary teams on the wild map outside the main city had also multiplied.
Now almost 99% of players had been brought to Lv 20. They basically all had a certain survivability. Killing monsters on low-level maps around the main cities had become the first choice for new players.
Due to their characteristics of high attack power and low health, most players who went out to farm monsters would choose to go to the Mercenary Association to find one or two elementalist NPCs to cooperate with before departure.
Now in the Mercenary Association, the proportion of ordinary people had dropped significantly.
As areas such as Mercenary Town and Doha Town developed, many new jobs were created in increasingly prosperous towns. Their priority would be given to ordinary mercenaries.
On the one hand, due to the additional elementalists, the living space for ordinary mercenaries was gradually compressed and opportunities for missions became increasingly less.
On the other hand, many of them were veterans who had retired from the front line. They had spent most of their lives forced to live a life of licking blood on the edge of the knife.
Xu Sili didn’t forget about them. After conditions improved, he told Wen Jishan to pay attention to the arrangements of these people.
Thanks to specialized pre-job training, many ordinary mercenaries had successfully changed careers and started a new life.
The elementalist mercenaries weren’t so lucky.
They were originally transferred from the local army. In order to prevent their annual subsidies from being cut, they had to complete a certain number of missions.
There was an adaptation period of half a year and most of the originally pampered elementalists had been to the front lines and basically adapted to their current lives.
Naturally, they were eager to receive an invitation from the braves.
Apart from anything else, all the braves were two star elementalists. This alone was reassuring enough.
In light of the fact that interstellar beasts always liked to be together for action, the players finally found a way.
The interstellar beasts on the Glass Sea Plains had basically been cleared, so the players took advantage of this terrain.
The players responsible for attracting monsters worked tirelessly to lure the interstellar beasts to the Glass Sea Plains. Then they used various tricks to split up the group of interstellar beasts and kill them one by one!
Now many wind players had completed the Glass Sea trial and successfully obtained the agility +50 reward. Those with a particularly high degree of completion even obtained 100 points.
This greatly increased their success rate in attracting monsters.
The scope of clearing monsters around the main cities was advancing at almost the same speed every day. The power of the fourth natural disaster was gradually emerging. This made the soldiers of Roland’s army, stationed at the border, sigh with emotion.
It wasn’t until the next day that Chamo finished asking Asheng and finally gave Xu Sili a clear answer.
On the other side, the primeval jungle. The escape of Xu Fengqing and Xenos continued.
They had escaped a long distance.
Xu Fengqing had less than 15 minutes left on his bloodline activation time.
Just as he was thinking about how to hide his whereabouts and get rid of the tracking, Xenos suddenly raised his hand and an ice shield appeared behind Xu Fengqing.
Crack crack.
The ice shield fell to the ground with a shattering sound.
Xu Fengqing turned around. He saw the figures of the two lizardmen suddenly approaching from a few hundred meters away.
They were riding on a flying saucer-shaped aircraft under their feet. They were very fast and finally caught up after 20 minutes.
On the way over, they didn’t stop shooting but it was all blocked by Xenos’ ice shield.
They couldn’t escape…
Xu Fengqing’s eyes were cold. He wasn’t the type of person to just run away from danger. Since the two NPCs were getting closer, they had to fight to the death!
He bent down, carefully put down Xenos and let him lean on a stone. Then he rushed toward the two lizardmen.
After activating the bloodline power, he was finally able to see the level of these two aliens.
Eller Lv 46, Cole Lv 45.
They were five levels higher than him.
Despite this, his health after the beast transformation was obviously much higher than theirs.
This was the advantage of a rare race!
Xu Fengqing calmed down and controlled his body to face his first head-on battle.
He had only 12 minutes left. He had to resolve this battle within 12 minutes or Xenos would definitely be captured.
He couldn’t let that happen!
He took a week off to treat Xenos, not to send him to the aliens!
Cole and Eller hadn’t expected this ancient beast to be so strong. Their attacks fell on him and seemed to tickle him.
It caused injuries visible to the naked eye but the ancient beast didn’t seem to react to the injuries.
Boom!
Cole was accidentally slapped to the ground by the dragon’s palm, creating a hole in the ground. He couldn’t help spitting out a handful of blood at the bottom of the hole.
Then he soon jumped out of the pit again.
“F*k, doesn’t this guy feel pain?” Cole couldn’t help cursing.
Obviously, the dragon’s body was injured but his speed wasn’t affected by the pain at all. He still maintained the same speed every time he made a move, seemingly without any difficulty.
The more they fought, the more shocked the two lizardmen became in their hearts.
Monster. This ancient beast was a real monster!
Meanwhile, Xu Fengqing actually understood his state very well.
His time was running out.
During the battle, he accidentally discovered that the shadow stealth and shadow control that he previously comprehended could not only be used, but they had also reached the full level!
This discovery was simply a timely rain!
The black dragon, which was originally at a disadvantage under the siege of the two lizardmen, suddenly sank into the shadows of the ground and appeared behind Cole and Eller.
Cole and Eller discovered the situation and were about to dodge. Then they found that they couldn’t move.
This was the full level effect of the shadow control. He controlled the shadow of the enemies so they were fixed in place and couldn’t move!
Boom boom!
Xu Fengqing slammed the two of them directly to the ground, hoping to use his current weight advantage to smash them into meat pies.
However, he was still disappointed.
The bodies of these two high level lizards had been trained to be as tough as stone and steel, especially their scales.
Cole was aware of his intention and laughed while coughing up blood. “Did you think you can hit us to death like this? Dream on! If you have the ability, kill us now or…”
“Cole!”
Eller shouted loudly, but his body was controlled. He could only watch as his companion’s body was frozen into solid ice by a cloud of blue energy.
Then the dragon slapped Cole’s body to pieces!
Xu Fengqing raised his head and glanced at the silver-haired man outside the battle.
Even at this moment, Xenos didn’t give up on the battle. He raised his only remaining arm. Blue energy was released again and thrown at Eller.
It wasn’t known whether the energy was weaker this time, or Eller was stronger, but the freezing effect only half froze him.
Still, Xu Fengqing didn’t dislike it.
He directly raised his hand and slapped Eller, shattering all the frozen limbs.
In the midst of Eller’s pained screams, the system notification sounded in Xu Fengqing’s ears again.
[The bloodline activation effect has ended. The countdown of the cooldown: 7 days.]
The seven day symbol appeared on the status bar and started to count down. Xu Fengqing’s power disappeared again. The next moment, he changed back to human form and fell to the ground.
He looked miserable now. He had lost nearly two-thirds of his health during the battle and it was now reflected in his human form.
Fortunately, the fight was won…
Xu Fengqing looked at the two lizardmen in the pit in front of him. The special game cabin didn’t have the holy light effect, so what he saw was the most primitive bloody picture.
This made him a bit uncomfortable since he was from a modern, civilized society. However, it made his sense of immersion in the game stronger.
He obviously lowered the realism but his hands were still trembling slightly. It wasn’t due to the pain, but…
Xu Fengqing shook his head and got up from the ground.
They weren’t real people. Even if they were, they were aliens. There was nothing wrong with killing them.
The power disappeared and his body became heavy.
Xu Fengqing dragged his feet and walked toward Xenos step by step.
They couldn’t stay here any longer or unknown dangers might occur.
He was just a few steps away from Xenos when Xu Fengqing’s health bar cleared in an instant!
His sense of realism had been reduced to almost zero so he didn’t even realize what was happening. He only saw the silver-haired man’s originally peaceful expression become replaced by horror. Then…
His body fell down uncontrollably. His whole body became light and finally slowly floated up.
Xenos, who was preparing to greet the man and treat him, could only watch as the man fell in front of him, eyes full of disbelief.
A spaceship slowly appeared in the jungle in the distance. In the sunlight, the flash of the metal gun muzzle could faintly be seen.
There was also the national emblem of the Bewatt Empire on the spaceship.
However, Xenos just stared blankly at the man who fell down in front of him. The light in Xenos’ eyes seemed to be extinguished again.
“Fengqing… Fengqing!!!”
