So, when the members of Team 321 suddenly found out from the notification sound of their smart bracelet that their team had received the Geng-level mission to go to the Exotic Beast Forest to search for the rare plant Blood Qilin, they were all stunned.
Li Fu immediately called Ye Shijie's holographic video phone and shouted, "Captain! Are you crazy?! Whoever accepts that crappy mission is an idiot! I declare in advance that I will absolutely not participate! - If you want to go, go alone! Don't drag our entire team down with you!"
Ping Qiong also joined the call angrily, repeatedly saying, "Captain! I'm the same as Li Fu! I absolutely won't go! Have you considered our team?! With such a high difficulty and such low rewards, are our lives really that worthless?!"
Song Mingqian was the third to join. He shook his long bangs and said in a deep and resolute voice, "You all call me 'the money-giving man'! That's because I'm willing to die as long as I can make money! But I absolutely won't take a mission that costs me my life and doesn't make money! - Captain, if you really insist on doing this, I can apply for a transfer!"
Ye Shijie was also confused at this time.
After being scolded by the three team members, he said coldly, "I told you before, anyone who takes this kind of lousy mission is an idiot! - Do you think I'm that kind of idiot?!"
Li Fu almost blurted out the three words "You are"!
Fortunately, under Ye Shijie's angry glare, he pulled back from the brink and muttered, "...Who knows? People make mistakes, horses stumble... You never know..."
"Li Fu, say it again!" If it weren't for the three-dimensional holographic video call, Ye Shijie could really kick the brown bear-like Li Fu into the strange beast forest in the north!
Just when they were about to fight, Xia Chujian joined the video call.
In fact, Xia Chujian knew it as soon as Li Fu made a video call to Ye Shijie.
Because Li Fu was using the team channel and not the privacy mode, the whole team could see when one person made a call.
She originally didn't want to get involved and planned to wait until everyone calmed down for a while before sending a group message to explain.
But I didn't expect everyone to react so violently, actually scolding the captain to the point of bloodshed...
She felt sorry for everyone, and she couldn't let Captain Ye Shijie take the blame.
Therefore, she joined the call before Ye Shijie was about to challenge Li Fu: "Everyone, please stop arguing. Don't blame the captain. I answered the call."
She didn't dare meet their eyes, lowering her head and speaking quickly, "I'll go alone, you don't have to go. I'm serious. If we succeed, I'll split the reward with everyone. If we fail, the association won't impose any penalties, so you don't have to take any risks."
After saying that, he decisively logged off.
Over the past three years, her teammates have always taken good care of her.
She didn't want to involve everyone in this thankless task.
Moreover, according to the rules of the Night Hunters Association, even if a mission is accepted in the name of a team, it is not necessary for the entire team to carry it out together.
It is allowed to go alone, but the mission must be accepted in teams. After accepting the mission, the team will decide how to act.
But she really wanted to go to the Forest of Strange Beasts to find Kong Sang.
I took on this Blood Qilin mission just to find Kong Sang better.
By accepting tasks issued by this association, you can receive equipment that matches the task for free without having to purchase it yourself.
In a place like the Monster Forest, without equipment, even a high-level genetic evolver would die if he went in.
Xia Chujian still has to save her aunt's life, so she can't lose her own life first.
So she borrowed the name of the team.
Xia Chujian lowered her head and looked at the task introduction on her smart bracelet.
There is a picture of a bloody unicorn on it.
The Blood Qilin is a rare plant. Its only growing place is on the edge of the extreme north of the Strange Beast Forest. The temperature needs to be low to a certain level all year round, but not so low that no life can grow.
Its appearance is more like a succulent plant, with a green color and a peculiar shape, just like the legendary Qilin beast.
When you cut its fleshy stem, the juice that flows out is red, like blood.
Therefore it was named "Blood Qilin".
Its ripening period is from November to March of the following year.
However, the even rarer plant, Kongsang, was not mentioned at all in the missions of the Night Hunters Association.
Xia Chujian had only seen the picture in the paper by Academician Tan Tai that Shen Junyi downloaded for her in the afternoon.
It was a herb that looked so fragile that it seemed like it could be blown away by a gust of wind. The plant was slender and its leaves looked like orchids, but were half as short as those of orchids.
The petals are misty, moon-white with a hint of light pink, and look very unreal, like a few strokes casually drawn in a black and white ink painting, but they are full of vitality.
The color of the leaves is a hazy mist green.
This plant, growing around the turquoise blood unicorn, is like a drop of light blue water in the dark blue sea.
It’s really not easy to find it.
Moreover, Xia Chujian didn't know whether the remaining nine Kongsang trees were still alive.
After all, it looks so weak, and it might have been harmed by wild beasts long ago.
The reason why the Strange Beast Forest is called the Strange Beast Forest is that it also produces a variety of strange animals.
But for her, this is hope, this is the dream.
She must go to the Forest of Strange Beasts, even if she will gain nothing and return empty-handed.
But if she doesn't give it a try, she will die with regret.
Because Shen Junyi has officially informed her that her aunt's illness cannot be cured by any conventional medical method.
Kongsang is the last hope and the last resort.
Aunt is Xia Chujian's only relative. She and her aunt have depended on each other since she was a child, and it was her aunt who raised her.
