Wei Huan makes a choice
Chapter 72
"Click!" The anal digger made a sound by biting his mouth, and it was not known whether he was responding to Liu Chengzhi.
But there was no hostility in its eyes, that was the truth.
Even when it found Xiaoman still blocking the road, it did not show any evil look, but just nudged Xiaoman with its white bony nose.
"Please give way to Brother Man." Mu Zhong said.
Xiaoman reacted quickly and moved aside, sticking to the wall.
The anal-digging guy can finally move forward.
After it passed, the wolves following behind it were smaller and did not have such sharp bone spurs on their bodies, so they passed smoothly.
This time Xiaoman specially counted them, and including the big running wolf leading the group, there were 40 running wolves.
There are obviously fewer of them than facehuggers, but the wolves have a high star rating and strong individual strength, so their overall strength is not weaker than that of facehuggers.
When the wolves reached the front, everyone thought it was over.
Unexpectedly, a group of ghost crows flew in from behind.
The dark clouds gathered together and flew to the front without giving them any time to react.
The Ghost Crow is a spirit being that focuses on mental attacks.
When it flew over our heads, it was very uncomfortable for everyone, but because it was so fast, we could bear it.
"Is it gone?" Li Xue pressed her head and asked after she stood up.
Wei Huan said, "We need some undead to cover our rear."
This was not a request, because when he said this, the ferocious big head of the violent bear had already appeared in everyone's sight.
The violent bear, which is more majestic than the anal digger, seems a bit crowded in such a ruin.
But if they are just guarding the rear, I believe their large skeletons are enough to block any crisis that may arise from behind.
Li Xue: “…”
She wanted to say something, but sighed and finally nodded: "This is not what I expected at all, but... let's go."
That’s not a bad thing, is it?
If Wei Huan becomes strong, Mu Zhong will also become strong, and Commander Mu will also become strong. After the two powerful forces join forces, the entire Daxia Legion will become stronger, even stronger than the Dark Beast.
So it was just a loss of face for them. Having strong companions is never a bad thing.
Sure enough, the result was the same as Li Xue expected.
The undead army in front quickly explored the entire ruins and found two key rooms: the cab and the energy room.
They also surrounded the treasure chest and refused to open it. They were smart enough to move the garbage mountain away and searched for the treasure map underneath, but they also surrounded it and did not take it.
They easily reached the treasure chest and looked into the eyes of these undead creatures.
Look at them, and then look at the treasure chest.
Finally, Li Xue sat down on the ground, crying loudly: "How embarrassing! What a socially destructive scene! Why am I not a necromancer? It must be that my reincarnation posture is not correct. I wish this profession was given to me!!"
Captain Xue had no choice but to pick up his wife and go to the side to coax her.
Mu Zhong found an opportunity to pass it over: "We are about to go to the third-level highway for assessment. Wei Huan also needs to understand his current strength to see if it matches the third-level highway. Otherwise, let us test our combat strength in this ruin. The 50-50 materials will not be divided. Consider it a gift from you."
As soon as Mu Zhong finished speaking, Wei Huan ordered the undead army to open the black iron treasure chest.
A blue-skinned humanoid treasure chest monster jumped out of the treasure chest. It only looked like a human at first glance, but in fact, its arms and legs were tentacles, and there was a big tentacle behind its butt.
As soon as it appeared, it was like a peacock spreading its tail and attacking with all its might.
"Bluebeard, be careful!" Captain Xue, while comforting his wife, also reminded her, "Be careful of its tentacles."
"Yeah." Wei Huan nodded. He must be familiar with the blue-bearded people. After all, the longest time he stayed in his previous life was on the third-level highway.
Therefore, it was because they knew how powerful this blue-bearded man named by humans was that they sent out a large number of undead armies at the beginning.
The blue-bearded man's large number of tentacles gives it the ability to fight in groups, and it also has a very high IQ. Wei Huan's undead army may not be able to please it.
So what Mu Zhong said was right, he really needed a battle to adapt to his upgraded strength.
This blue-bearded man was indeed smart. After appearing, he immediately identified several humans in the room as his main targets.
The tentacles split into several parts and flew towards Lao Xu, Xiaoman, Lanlan and Wei Huan respectively.
The first tentacle behind it was aimed directly at Captain Xue and Li Xue. It knew keenly that Captain Xue was very strong.
Of course, this is also directly related to the fact that Wei Huan was hiding in the undead army and his breath was blocked by the undead army.
The army of the undead can conceal his presence.
As for Mu Zhong and Liu Chengzhi who were protected behind him, one was a legless assistant, and the other was a fraudster who was only at Sequence 2... no matter how you looked at it, they were both "trash" who would be dealt with in the end.
However, it was obvious that the few people attacked by its tentacles could not be easily dealt with by it.
After all, they are all battle-hardened Sequence III professionals. Not to mention that they can deal with a monster in a black iron box in a 1V1 battle, but they should have no problem staying alive for a while.
Lao Xu and Xiao Man are real soldiers.
They transformed into melee weapons one after another and fought head-on without fear of death.
Lanlan instantly unleashed a lightning spell that had been building up for a long time.
The blue-bearded man was so shocked that his whole body went numb, and all his attacking tentacles froze.
Li Xue and Captain Xue had to face the largest tentacle behind the blue-bearded man, but Li Xue said, "I will protect Mu Zhong."
Because at a cold glance, this team of three is very unreliable, they are all squishy, and there are also second-level professionals.
Captain Xue, however, saw through Wei Huan's composure and, as his wife rushed towards the giant tentacle, he said, "Go protect Lanlan!"
On weekdays, the two are the closest couple, but in battle, Captain Xue is the superior and the captain.
Although Li Xue didn't figure it out at the first moment, her body had already executed it and flashed in front of Lan Lan.
He raised his knife and cut the tentacle that had poked Lanlan's nose into seven or eight pieces.
“Come on!”
"kill!"
Captain Xue on the other side was already holding a thick-backed broadsword in both hands, and he rushed forward boldly, and with a "puff", he chopped the giant tentacle in half vertically.
In just a blink of an eye, humans had an absolute advantage.
It seems that this Iron-level treasure chest monster can be easily eliminated.
Now with Wei Huan joining, the clearing speed has become even faster.
Because everyone was fighting against the tentacles, Wei Huan's undead army had already started to bite the blue-bearded man's body.
The running wolf moved flexibly, the facehugger swooped down from the ceiling, and the ghost crow shrieked as it shuttled through the blue-bearded man's body.
“Wakaka!”
“Quack, quack, quack!”
"Hey~Hey~"
For a moment, the noise of the undead army fighting drowned out all the sounds in the room.
In the blink of an eye, the tentacles that were fighting with him wilted and fell to the ground with a plop.
The monster was dead before even 30% of its full power was exerted.
"Just died?" Liu Chengzhi said with lingering regret.
It was my first time participating in a battle, and although I didn’t contribute much, my courage was commendable.
Li Xue joked, "This is the first time I've seen such a fat and agile thief. Do you have some genetic mutation?"
Liu Chengzhi scratched the back of his head and smiled awkwardly, "Sister Xue, I can be very flexible too. I also have a high counterweight, so I feel great when I press down on the chisel. Give me a chance next time and I'll show you how much I can use my weight to crush the Wolf."
The anal digging guy just happened to look over here.
Liu Chengzhi added: "But I can't suppress Brother An. Brother An is powerful, and there are thorns on his back."
Li Xue was amused by the last sentence: "Orange Juice, right? When we have time, let's exchange our experiences with the Gambler's Sequence."
Liu Chengzhi's eyes lit up instantly: "Thank you, Sister Xue! If you have time tonight, come to our car for a meal. I'll make something delicious for you and your brothers."
"Oh, and he's a chef?"
"That's not the case. When it comes to cooking, I'm good at it." As he said that, Liu Chengzhi gave himself a thumbs up.
"What about being a thief?" Sister Xue wanted to tease him.
Liu Chengzhi wanted to raise his pinky finger, but he felt guilty. After hesitating for a moment, he raised his index finger and said, "If I work harder, I can do it."
Sister Xue and Lanlan were both amused.
The ruins exploration, which was originally full of dangers, somehow turned into a picnic.
Everyone was talking and laughing, and they didn't even seem to be on guard.
The undead army is really too capable.
Not only did it circle the location of the treasure chest and treasure fragments, but it also triggered the mechanism in the ruins.
Once a mechanism is exposed, it becomes useless.
This results in a lack of sense of participation when exploring the ruins.
Mu Zhong was eager to get to the driver's cab and the energy room. He said, "Two days is plenty of time. I want to completely tear this place down."
Wei Huan nodded: "Okay, I'll accompany you."
"As long as a box remains unopened, the ruins will not disappear."
"Um."
Li Xue overheard their conversation and waved her hand, saying, "Our mission is to escort you until you enter the assessment. We don't have much to do these two days. You go collect supplies, and we'll follow the undead army around. With their cooperation, it's easy to open the silver treasure chest."
Liu Chengzhi said, "Boss, can I join Sister Xue and the others? I want to learn how to fight better with my profession."
Both of them support Liu Chengzhi's progress.
So they separated at the next intersection.
Wei Huan pushed the wheelchair and went directly to the driver's cab under the protection of the undead army.
This is still a level six car.
Heavy fortresses on land, sea and air.
As the name suggests, the vehicle can not only go into the sea, but also fly.
It won’t be long before we break through the planet’s gravity and fly into space.
If humans can analyze the technology in this car, the overall technology of Blue Planet will have a huge leap forward.
But challenging the world will not be easy. Only professional drivers can master the "technological code".
Even the most outstanding scientists on Blue Star, even if they have thoroughly researched the technology in the Challenge World, as long as they return to Blue Star, those who are not in the pilot sequence will have all the technologies they have mastered blurred in their memory.
However, in Wei Huan's opinion, the most urgent task is to let Mu Zhong master the manufacturing technology of mecha.
For a long time, he had hoped that Mu Zhong could stand up again.
He wanted to see a smile on his face, and even more so, he wanted to see the "depression" that was always lingering before his eyes completely disappear.
He hopes he can make up for his regrets and be happy.
Mu Zhong was in the cockpit, so Wei Huan didn't go anywhere to accompany him.
He released the Demon Eye Lords, three in total, one of which had been following Captain Xue and the others.
Half of Wei Huan's eye is green, and through the Lord of the Demon Eye, he can see the fierce battle happening in front of him.
Not only did he see the strength of Captain Xue and his team, but he also understood his current combat effectiveness.
Just as he thought, after being promoted to the third-level profession, it was very easy to open the silver treasure chest in the ruins of the third-level highway.
The main reason why he was able to form an army by himself was that he obtained the Undead Ranch.
Of course, coupled with his natural high spiritual power of 95 points, he also won a comprehensive victory on the list and won a large number of gold treasure chests, and even platinum treasure chests.
This makes his personal ability far beyond that of a third-level professional, and even much stronger than a fourth-level professional.
On this basis, he had the ability to deal with a god-level monster on the secondary highway. Even if it was just a few tentacles, he might have lost the battle if it was just a matter of a hair's breadth.
Finally, he got the magic weapon fragment - [Pseudo-Demon Mofidi Ring (fragment)].
After wearing, all attributes increase by 25%.
There is no need for any repetition. Those who understand will understand how terrifying the percentage increase is.
It even allowed Wei Huan's dark power to directly break through 1000 and reach 1080 points.
In other words, if his summons do not recruit high-level undead for the time being, but instead fill the basic wolf legion and zombie army, the basic summon number can now reach 1,500.
The number can increase by two to three hundred every day.
After the troops explode, the number will be even greater.
These attributes are only the current level. Once Wei Huan takes attribute potions or obtains high-level equipment, these values will also increase by 25%.
What if one day, his basic Dark Power value reaches 10,000? Then the attribute points added by the pseudo-magic weapon for him will be 2,500 points!
Just thinking about it is ridiculously powerful.
Therefore, as soon as he arrived at the third-level highway, Wei Huan had the ability to push the silver treasure chest.
"How is it?" Mu Zhong was busy for a while, and when he looked up, he saw Wei Huan with his feet resting on the cockpit and his brows relaxed.
After a moment's thought, I knew why he was in such a good mood.
"Speaking of the combat effectiveness of a third-level undead, I'd also like to see what the casualty rate is when killing white shadow monsters."
Wei Huan took the component handed to him by Mu Zhong and handed it to the facehugger with its front paws raised.
The facehugger grabbed the component with its claws, twisted its butt, and flew away.
Wei Huan also said: "With Captain Xue and his team here, they are less than 1%, and they are also very strong."
Mu Zhong said: "Captain Xue is one of the first batch of professionals, and he was originally a soldier under the name of General Mu.
Many people died in the first year, and many great elders of countries were gone, and the country was in chaos.
Captain Xue has been following Commander Mu and encountered many crises.
Until four years ago, when Sister Xue got on his car, Commander Mu asked them to stay on the third-level highway. Firstly, the third-level highway needed to keep its own people, so it was right to send them for something like this time.
In addition, I also hope that they can enjoy their married life and have a child if they wish.
The most precious thing for the country right now is its newborn babies.”
Wei Huan nodded and suddenly said: "After the test of the third-level highway is over, we will join the Northeast Army."
Mu Zhong stood up suddenly and looked at him straight.
Wei Huan nodded affirmatively.
Mu Zhong smiled and said, "Okay."
At noon, they left briefly, returned to the car, and had a big meal carefully prepared by the chef on the newly upgraded fourth-floor top balcony.
How could anyone risk their lives in the Challenge World enjoy such a feast? Everyone would just eat a bite. If they were really hungry, they could still eat without distraction back on Blue Star. Why did they have to be greedy in the Challenge World?
Liu Chengzhi's culinary talent is not to be underestimated.
Many of the foods here are his first time making them, but with his special ability of having a good taste, he can adjust the taste to the level of a five-star chef.
Besides, the ingredients used in the car are all produced in the microscopic world. As a legendary paradise, the ingredients in it are delicious.
Many people are accustomed to eating juicy and sweet vegetables when they challenge the world, but when they return to Blue Star, they can't even swallow the marbled beef caviar that is as valuable as gold.
After a hearty lunch, everyone was full.
Li Xue looked at the scenery outside the car and said lazily, "It will be a level 4 car soon, and there will be 12 extra seats. If we hadn't completed the assessment and couldn't take up seats, I would have thought of getting on your car."
Of course, everyone knows that this is just a joke.
The reason why their convoy stayed on the third-level highway was that they had an important mission. General Mu had little power and fewer soldiers at his disposal, so he needed people like them who were key to the chain.
However, Li Xue's sigh opened up Wei Huan and Mu Zhong's minds.
Yes, before entering the third-level highway assessment, they must upgrade to a fourth-level vehicle. There are so many extra seats on the vehicle, and they will be empty anyway, so why not bring some people to complete the assessment together?
It doesn't matter whether these people stay in the car or leave after completing the assessment. As long as they have good character, a clean family background, and are not confused about major issues, they can be brought along.
From now on, these people will be the backbone of the human race on the battlefield.
Mu Zhong lowered his eyes: "Let me think about it..."
After a pause, he continued, "Time is running out. I think many people have probably returned to Blue Star after completing the assessment. We need to select trustworthy people and notify them within a certain timeframe, so that we can form a team before the assessment begins..."
Finally, Mu Zhong raised his eyes and looked at Wei Huan: "The only ones who have this ability are the officials."
Wei Huan could tell that Mu Zhong was very cautious when he mentioned asking the authorities to intervene, and he obviously cared a lot about his attitude.
Wei Huan thought that there was no need to be so cautious. Since he had agreed to join the Northeast Army, he had thought it over carefully and would not regret it.
He is not so bold as to think that he can be superior to the Northeast Army, at least not yet.
So look at this level 4 vehicle that is being upgraded, this level 4 balcony built on the third floor, the engine and shell that have been upgraded to level 4, and those that are lit up and waiting in line for production, including blueprints for special terrains and upgrade materials.
Who can say that they are not moved by this feeling of being fully trained and promoted in one go?
In his previous life, if there was a force that could give him the advanced potion to become a fourth-level soldier king, he would work for them.
He gave the "star beast skin" to Commander Dong because the situation was tense, wasn't he also hoping to get this kind of treatment in return?
Just because Commander Mu contacted Wei Jinhong in order to save his son's life, which led to Wei Jinhong asking Mu Zhong to marry him, does that mean he will hate Commander Mu?
Won't!
Now it seems that all the bad things have turned into good things.
Not only did he have a dream partner, this person even made him want to be together forever... Everything was just so perfect, what was there for him to resist?
But there were too many people here and Wei Huan couldn't explain.
Maybe in the future, there will be no way to explain it?
But he vowed to use his actions to tell Mu Zhong that all his decisions were his sincere choices.
"Okay, let's do as you say?"
Wei Huan nodded and said this amidst a crowd of nervous gazes.
For a moment, the tense atmosphere suddenly relaxed, and smiles returned to everyone's faces, becoming even brighter.
Wei Huan felt strange.
What was this strange atmosphere? Did everyone think he only wanted to go to the southwest and would never choose the northeast?
If he only wanted to go to the southwest, he would not have agreed to accept these valuable materials in the first place.
But the fact is that many people are unsure.
At the beginning, Wei Huan showed in all aspects that he had the highest favorability towards the Southwest Legion.
The "star beast skin" of unimaginable value was directly given to the Southwest Legion without even discussing the materials to be traded. Who wouldn't think twice?
Besides, the Northeast Army Corps is in a really bad state now, and Commander Mu is even worse. There are also some worthless people who turned against him and abandoned Commander Mu.
It was a tragic scene of monkeys scattering when the tree fell.
Wei Huan would decide to join General Mu at this time. In fact, he himself did not know that this would have a great inspiring effect on General Mu's faction.
Thinking of this, Captain Xue immediately stood up and said, "I'll contact Colonel Luo. I'm wondering if it's possible to take advantage of this rare opportunity to unexpectedly conduct a large-scale talent export.
In the past two years, the Dark Beasts have learned our patterns, and it has become increasingly difficult for newcomers to easily complete the assessment. Even the official organization's major operations held every six months are fully targeted by the Dark Beasts, and each time we suffer heavy losses.
It's only been a month since the first Class A highway assessment. The Dark Beasts certainly couldn't have imagined we would launch an operation at this time."
Captain Xue was so excited that he said a lot, but after that he left quickly and returned to his car to report on his work.
Li Xue didn't go. She curled up in her seat, biting the second joint of her index finger and said, "It would be a pity to only select talents from the Northeast. It would be best to search nationwide.
It’s just that Commander Hong is seriously ill now, and Commander Mu’s voice can’t be heard at all. This time…”
"Contact Commander Dong," Mu Zhong said. "Have Colonel Luo contact Commander Dong. He'll agree to help."
Li Xue suddenly realized: "That's right!"
After saying that, he also ran away happily.
Not long after, the couple came back together. Captain Xue looked at Wei Huan and nodded with joy in his eyes: "Okay, Commander Dong agreed to hold a meeting of the four major military regions!
In order to attract more newcomers to participate in the assessment, Commander Dong also contacted several super-first-level forces including "Jingcheng Trade" and "Jialun Military Industry" to release the annual recruitment assessment in advance.
Let’s use this assessment result as the standard!”
After hearing the last sentence, everyone opened their eyes wide.
Commander Dong has used up all the favors he has accumulated over the years this time, right?
However, his original intention can be understood. It was to provide talents, repay Wei Huan's kindness, and of course, to show his optimism and training for Wei Huan.
This is how super geniuses are treated.
Even though he has not fully grown up yet, anyone who is not blind can see that he will achieve great things in the future.
In fact, the final victory in this evolutionary war with the dark beasts may depend on the number of talents cultivated by the final echelon.
No one is jealous of this situation at all.
Wei Huan is indeed a little too strong. Everyone who saw his strength with their own eyes today truly admired him and even hoped that he would grow up quickly and hold up the sky.
"That's good. All we have to do now is wait for the news."
"The national selection is absolutely a true selection."
"Haha, I wonder who's coming? Ahhh! I really hate that I passed the test. This time it's going to be awesome. Damn it, I missed out on a hundred million!!"
Liu Chengzhi was listening from the side, his mouth crooked with smile.
Okay, okay, there are teammates coming in the car, the stronger the better!
