Chapter 49 Mission Completed, Return to White Tower

Wen Ye transformed into a giant black panther and kicked over the clam shell.

The mermaid fell to the ground in a mess, her tail wagging hard, sobbing and dropping little pearls. Even so, she still couldn't arouse Wen Ye's conscience and pity.

Instead, he pounced forward and used the Black Panther Heart-Rip attack.

It's an illusion.

The mermaid lay on the ground, her body scattered like stars and faded away.

Soon, the bright and dreamy crystal palace degenerated into a dark and depressing cabin with bones scattered all over the floor.

"How did you tell that?"

If the little jellyfish hadn't reminded her, she would have almost fallen into the illusion.

Wen Ye turned his head to look at her, "Hasn't anyone told you that I'm not interested in women at all?"

"Not interested? Or not?"

Wen Ye's eyes glared, "What did you say?"

"Nothing." She turned to leave, but someone grabbed her waist faster and dragged her back.

"Say it again."

Ji Zi was scared, "It's really nothing..." He was a stubborn person, always talking faster than his brain.

You can say men can do anything, but you can't say they can't.

Otherwise, the forced love mechanism will be triggered.

Just like now, my vision is filled with men's chest muscles.

It turns out that a man’s chest can be so soft. Before touching it, she had always foolishly thought it was... Shi Geng’s?

Wen Ye frowned and held her hand which was having fun.

He lowered his voice and said, "Let's play tonight."

Her old face flushed, and she struggled as if her hands were burning, jumping out of his arms.

"Nuclear... Where's the Nuclear Source Beast? Could that be the one just now?"

Wen Ye kicked the old and rotten wardrobe, and several wooden boards fell apart with a clang, raising a cloud of dust.

"Let's go out first. I wonder how many illusions like this there are?"

For the next three days, the sentries from the two military regions almost started a mopping-up operation, never missing any gaps in the sunken ship.

There were a total of thirteen illusion locations, all of which were eliminated.

Before coming here, I heard that this was an S+ level polluted area, which had continued to expand to the surrounding areas over the past five years. The White Tower in the north also sent several teams to clean it up, but they all returned empty-handed in the end.

Ji Zi thought it would be very dangerous.

Unexpectedly, Wen Ye said that this was a benign pollution area.

The so-called benign pollution refers to a pollution area that has not caused any substantial harm to surrounding villages and nearby residents. Although it has continued to spread within five years, fortunately, the core pollution area is a shipwreck on the seabed, so only this vast sea area is polluted.

The huge shipwreck turned into flying black bubbles before everyone's eyes.

The sea returned to calm.

Everything you see is an illusion. The deeper the greed, the greater the possibility of being bound and confused. In other words, the strength of the opponent depends entirely on yourself.

The slightly salty sea breeze caressed my cheeks, without any faint stench, and the parasites mixed in the wind also miraculously disappeared.

Ji Zi got into the flying ship.

Qi Yi and Wen Ye stood in the aisle of the rest cabin, one in front and one behind, waving at her.

Just as she was about to walk over, Lin Wen stood up from the cabin and stopped her.

"Do you have time? Talk to me."

Compared with her sarcastic attitude in the past, Lin Wen actually took the initiative to show goodwill to her this time.

"What?"

Lin Wen invited her to take a seat.

Then he smiled gently and said, "I misunderstood you before. I apologize."

Ji Zi glanced at Xin Yue, who was sitting in the back seat, with a calm expression, wondering what tricks these two were up to. Her heart and eyes were filled with wariness.

"To make up for it, I can help you apply to return to Group A when we return to the White Tower this time."

Ji Zi didn't understand, "Why should I go back to Group A?"

Lin Wen was quite surprised and thought she was playing dumb with her.

So he continued to explain patiently, "With your abilities, it would be a waste of your talent to stay in Group B. Why don't you come back and prepare with me for next month's Academy League?"

"College League?"

"Yes." Lin Wen said with some pride, "Only Group A is eligible to register."

"I'm not interested," she refused.

The meaningless attitude caused Xin Yue great dissatisfaction.

"Ji Zi, don't be ungrateful!"

Lin Wen reached out and pressed Xin Yue's knee, her tone still gentle, "You may not quite understand what the college league is."

"The competition is held every three years and is divided into two rounds. The first half is the college team competition. This means that the outstanding guides from the four colleges will form a team and compete against each other in pairs to determine the champion. The winning team will receive three spots to advance to the Central White Pagoda system."

"Of course, there are also a large amount of gold coins and five types of energy crystals as rewards, so participating in the league is also a lifelong dream for many guides."

"The second half is the individual competition. All guides who scored 60 or above in the team competition can sign up to compete individually. The champion will receive three energy crystals from their own system and the highest honor bestowed by the federal government."

"Not only that, the top three in the individual competition will have the opportunity to enter federal government politics."

This is such a great temptation. Lin Wen doesn't believe that Ji Zi will not be tempted after hearing it.

The truth was, she wasn't really interested.

For her, the most needed thing may be water energy crystals.

Because no nuclear beasts were generated in the contaminated area of ​​the mirage this time, naturally no energy crystals would be dropped.

Wen Ye was very frustrated and promised to keep looking.

But Ji Zi believed that the unexpected awakening of her spirit body this time seemed to be because she marked Qi Yi and Wen Ye consecutively, and perhaps it was also helped by the water energy crystal, but it was definitely not the main reason.

I'll ask Dr. Gu when I get back.

Thinking of this, she asked Lin Wen, "Are you done?"

"Yes, you can think about it."

"Forget it. I'm quite comfortable staying in Group B now, and I'm too lazy to adapt to a new environment." Ji Zi stood up. "Thank you for your kindness."

Hearing this, Xin Yue angrily cursed, "Ji Zi, you will definitely regret this!"

This was an opportunity many guides dreamed of, yet she didn't even want it?

Gifted guides like Lin Wen, who was detected as A-level at birth, have been preparing for this for three full years.

Over the past three years, Lin Wen has been searching for high-quality Sentinel Markers with great potential, and has been conducting long-term tacit training with them in order to hone this sword.

But Ji Zi actually said she was not interested.

Lin Wen laughed out of anger. Considering that she was still on the airship and there were two oppressive gazes behind her, she stared at this place motionlessly.

He had no choice but to suppress all his emotions, then turned to Xin Yue and said, "Take a break. You've worked hard on this journey."

Is it hard?

Xin Yue's face was burning with shame. Just as Ji Zi said last night, she was of almost no help in this mission.

Not only her, but also Lin Wen, the most talented high-level guide in Group A.

During this mission, it was also dimmed by Ji Zi's brilliance.

Is the world really going to change?
