Chapter 74 Is it the same in reverse?
The process of completing the task is both exciting and boring.
For Su Ming, Lei Hao and Ye Bai, who had already experienced various tasks in the past year, this day's task process was a bit boring.
After all, Ye Bai would not take on some overly dangerous and difficult tasks casually. The five tasks he selected were only of level C difficulty at most, which was quite easy for Su Ming's team to complete.
Therefore, Su Ming, Lei Hao and Ye Bai did not think there was anything wrong with the task for the day. They just dealt with it and it was inevitable that they would feel bored.
Of course, for An Zijin, Jiang Wanyu and Yao Beibei, the mission of the day was exciting.
They were all still freshmen and had a lot of experience to accumulate. During the mission, Su Ming and the other two generously taught them a variety of experiences and skills, which benefited these three lovely school girls a lot.
At least, Jiang Wanyu and Yao Beibei were able to keep a steady mind when dealing with the phantom demon, and An Zijin also improved his skills in using spiritual magic. Compared with yesterday, his performance was definitely much better.
The qualities of these three people are already very high. Once they have gained experience and improved their mentality, their performance will naturally improve by leaps and bounds. The improvement is so obvious that Lei Hao and Ye Bai kept saying that when they first started the mission, they could not keep up with the progress and performance of these three school sisters.
With such benefits, An Zijin and the other two naturally would not find the task boring like Su Ming and the other two. Instead, they were full of fighting spirit and much more active than Su Ming and the other two.
Thanks to this, at about three o'clock in the afternoon, Su Ming and his team completed all five tasks.
After a brief discussion, everyone finally decided to return to the college community and take on two more tasks.
Although, at this point in time, the remaining tasks are definitely those that are more difficult to deal with, it is better than wasting the remaining time.
So, the group of six went back to the college community and took on two C-level subjugation missions.
The mission was a little more dangerous than before, but fortunately, it was safe and sound without any major accidents, and was successfully completed by Su Ming and his team of six.
By the time both tasks were completed, it was already getting dark.
Su Ming and his group of six returned to the college community quite contentedly. Just like yesterday, they had a feast in the cafeteria of the office building and began to count their rewards.
After a whole day and seven tasks, Su Ming's team earned nearly 80,000 contribution points.
If this batch of contribution points is divided equally, everyone can get more than 10,000 contribution points, not to mention yesterday's gains.
Therefore, Su Ming's team completed the requirements of the academy very smoothly and no longer had to worry about being expelled.
"The requirements set by the academy are not too difficult, otherwise I don't know how many talents would have been lost."
That's what Su Ming thought.
He made some inquiries and found that at least 80% of the teams completed the requirements assigned by the academy on that day.
The remaining 20% were either weak teams with the lowest grades in the academy, who had been taking on very easy tasks for two days, resulting in their contribution values not meeting the requirements; or they had accidents such as uneven distribution, conflicts between team members affecting the execution of the task, accidents during the task leading to failure, and injuries, which prevented them from meeting the contribution values.
Among them, there were even some who unfortunately died during the mission. The team's strategy made a huge mistake, causing everyone in the team to be punished by the academy and they could no longer stay in Huaming District.
When they learned about these things, the three female students fell silent, and the joy and fulfillment they felt after a day's work were gone.
It was not until this moment that they realized that this could be fatal.
They are not phantom demons that can regenerate anytime and anywhere, but just naturally fragile humans. If there is a slight mistake or a slight danger, they may lose their lives.
This is the truest form of the world, the cruelest scene.
"Don't think too much."
"They have to blame themselves for what happened to them."
Lei Hao and Ye Bai comforted An Zijin and the other two to some extent.
What they say makes sense.
The tasks that students can take on are not too difficult. Only the top students and elite students whose strength is comparable to that of professionals can take S-level and A-level tasks. These tasks are more dangerous. The tasks of other levels are not set too far beyond the scope of what students can handle.
Just like Su Ming's team, on the surface, three of them are ordinary students with average grades, and three are freshmen who have just enrolled. A team composed of such people cannot be considered top-notch among many student teams, and may not even be considered average. At most, it is just a lower-middle team.
But even so, Su Ming and his group of six can easily complete tasks of C-level difficulty. If they can force themselves a little, they should be able to complete even tasks of B-level difficulty.
Under such circumstances, what dangers would there be in carrying out the least difficult tasks? Would the academy want to send the talents it had cultivated with great difficulty to their deaths? How could it assign an impossible and dangerous task to a group of students?
In this case, if someone still dies in the mission, there are only two reasons.
1: An unexpected and huge accident occurred, such as misjudging the strength of the target, or another phantom demon broke in.
2. The team itself has huge problems that cannot be ignored.
Today, the entire Huaming District has been built as a military base, and all measures and intelligence have been upgraded to the highest level. The first reason is almost impossible to occur. Even if it occurs, it will be discovered and dealt with at the first time.
So, removing the problems caused by the first reason, only the second reason remains.
Su Ming said this.
"Among the three teams that lost people today, two were in a hurry to achieve results and accepted difficult tasks that were beyond the scope of their own team. The other team had serious conflicts. In the critical moment, the teammate not only did not help, but also made things worse. This is so bad that the college has expelled the people involved in this team."
If this isn't his own fault, then what else could it be?
After hearing such consolation, the three schoolgirls finally cheered up a little.
"No matter what, I will protect Zijin."
"Well, we are responsible for Xiao Zijin's safety."
Jiang Wanyu and Yao Beibei clenched their fists towards each other as if they had made up their minds.
Unfortunately , "I have Brother Su Ming to protect me, it's okay."
An Zijin's innocent words almost made the two girls lose their defense on the spot.
Su Ming felt that continuing this topic would be disadvantageous to him, so he quickly changed the topic.
"We can't be too careless. This is just the beginning. When the entrance to the Spirit Demon Prison opens tomorrow, that will be the biggest test for us."
Su Ming's words successfully attracted everyone's attention.
Ye Bai also spoke.
"The hospital has already given instructions. The number of tasks issued tomorrow will be greatly reduced. Instead, many defense tasks will be issued."
The so-called defense mission means going to a specific location to defend and resist the phantom demons that are about to appear there.
Read the error-free version on 6Ⅹ9Ⅹ bookⅩ bar! 6Ⅹ9 book bar first publishes a novel.
The academy will set the difficulty of the defense line mission according to the importance of the defense line at each location. As long as the team that receives the mission goes to the corresponding defense line to garrison, they can obtain contribution values of the corresponding difficulty.
During this period, the academy will also issue additional contribution points as rewards based on factors such as the number and level of phantom demons conquered and the degree of effort provided in the defense mission.
"I heard that our performance in the defense mission will even affect our year-end assessment and personal evaluation. Those with outstanding performance will receive extra points in the year-end assessment and even in the future graduation assessment. Therefore, the hospital requires every team to accept the defense mission. Otherwise, it will be regarded as desertion. Not only will the contribution value be reset to zero, but there will also be punishment."
Lei Hao added this information.
"Does that mean we have to take up defense missions tomorrow as well?"
Jiang Wanyu understood this.
"Indeed, if we don't participate in the upcoming battle, there is no reason for us to be transferred here."
Yao Beibei also muttered softly.
"No wonder so many seniors contacted me today and told me to remember to find a more remote defense line to hide in tomorrow."
An Zijin felt suddenly enlightened, and at the same time, he was showing off his popularity invisibly.
Su Ming was somewhat concerned about what the conditions for our victory were in the upcoming battle.
There is no need to ask about the conditions for failure. The defense line of Huaming District was breached, and the army of phantom demons rushed into the urban area of Longyao City and fought fiercely, causing the base city to fall completely.
But what are the conditions for victory?
We can't always be here to defend against the invasion of phantom demons, right?
There's no end to that.
You know, the Demonic Prison, as the inner side of the world, is as big as the outer side.
However, the area of the ocean in the Demonic Prison does not seem to be as large as that in the real world, and it seems that it is not even half the area of the land, resulting in a huge number of phantom demons.
Especially the lower-level phantom demons, the reason why they are called small fry is because of their strength and their number.
According to conservative estimates, the number of phantom demons in the Demon Prison is no less than the total number of species in the world, and may even be more.
Note that it is not less than the number of humans, but less than the total number of all species in the world.
That is a number that is too small even if "100 million" is used as the unit of calculation.
Perhaps there won't be that many phantom demons breaking into the world through this entrance, but as long as the entrance is there, the invading phantom demons will definitely continue.
If we keep guarding like this, when will it end?
Considering this, Su Ming felt that he needed to understand the inside story.
"Do you want to ask that young lady?"
Su Ming couldn't help but feel hesitant about this matter.
When Su Ming thought of Xu Qianqian, he couldn't help but think of the scene last night when she risked her life to save him.
Then, Su Ming felt something strange in his heart.
This made Su Ming feel a little numb.
"A hero saving a beautiful girl can make the beautiful girl fall in love with the hero, but is it the same in reverse?"
Su Ming froze on the spot when he had this thought.
