Just when Chen Chu's team was attacked, the team of Li Hao and others on the other side of the city was also attacked.
The attackers were again a combination of rebels and ordinary practitioners, catching the team off guard.
Just as the two convoys were engaged in battle, a flying vehicle similar to an airship was floating ten thousand meters above the city in the distance, with several officers below overlooking the area.
Behind them, more than a dozen staff members were busy in front of computers, and some sci-fi instruments with colorful lights kept flashing.
"Report, the energy detector detected two unfamiliar fourth-level heavenly waves flashing by, but the other party was very cunning and did not give us a chance to lock on."
"According to the fixed-point optical wave detections deployed throughout the city, there are several groups of people moving in the south of the city with suspicious behavior. They have been included in the surveillance. Call the Falcon Squad to track them."
"Report, A1, A5 teams did not find any suspicious targets around when they were attacked."
"A small group of rebels was found outside the town of Ross, 47 kilometers east of the city. Should we send a mixed ground-air company to suppress them?"
"Continue monitoring. Don't worry about the small group of rebels. Our target is the main force of the Blood God Cult that escaped here. Don't alert them too early."
"yes."
On the rooftop of the tallest building in Lestrup City, Hong Zeshan, wearing a general's uniform, stood on the edge, overlooking the surroundings with a telescope in his hand.
After a long while, Hong Zeshan said in a deep voice: "These guys are hiding very well. They can hold back from making a move even when so many 'geniuses' appear."
The adjutant beside him nodded slightly: "These people from the Evil God Cult have always been good at hiding. They have been doing things in secret for many years. It was only this time that they stepped into the spotlight."
"Now that the Federation has struck with lightning, most of the masters of the Blood God Cult and the Giant God Cult have been killed, and the remaining ones have become frightened birds."
"We have laid bait several times in the past two days, but only lured out some ordinary believers. It may be difficult to find them in the short term."
"Also, I feel that the experts following the convoy should have been exposed, otherwise only two teams would not have been attacked. After all, the people of the Evil God Cult hate the federal geniuses the most."
Hong Zeshan nodded slightly: "Your analysis makes sense, but as long as they don't want to give up the passage to Koroya, they won't be able to hide for long."
"It just so happens that the higher-ups are planning to use this place as a testing ground for the new generation, in preparation for the upcoming god-making plan."
"Oh, right, have the logistics department equip the freshmen with some auxiliary weapons. We are in a civilized age and fighting is still just hacking and slashing. That's too simple a method."
…
Chen Chu and Xia Youhui stood on the off-road vehicle in the middle of the team, occasionally glancing at the awed pedestrians on the roadside, guarding against possible enemies.
At this time, Xia Youhui, who was carrying a heavy shield, said enviously: "Achu, you have killed three believers, all of them are in the second heaven."
According to the price given by the school, a believer in the Second Heaven is worth 3 contribution points, which means that Chen Chu has earned 9 points in just two days.
It is equivalent to a reward for his two months of schooling.
"It's okay, I'm lucky." Chen Chu smiled.
9 contribution points may seem like a lot, but they are actually equivalent to 9,000 RMB, or tens of thousands on the black market. And this little bit of money comes from the lives of three Second Heaven masters.
After this conversion, you will find that the values of both parties are completely unequal.
However, in many cases, the "price" cannot be calculated in this way, because contribution points can be exchanged for cultivation resources that are monopolized by the government, which are things that cannot be bought even if you have money.
You should know that contribution points can only be obtained through school or official channels, so even if you are a billionaire, you cannot convert money into contribution points.
It will not happen that a wealthy person can donate tens of millions to the government and then get tens of thousands of contribution points and waste them at will.
In the era of advanced martial arts, the rich are just rich. The ones who truly control power and resources are the top strong ones, the king-level beings who can change the color of heaven and earth with just a thought.
This is also the reason why Xia Youhui, Yi Rui and others also want to come to school.
Moreover, the exchange of high-level resources requires permission, and ordinary practitioners are not eligible for exchange. Therefore, even if rich people can get some contribution points, they can only get some low-level resources.
Xia Youhui rolled his eyes: "I knew you would say that. You always say 'lucky' or 'okay'. What luck? No one would believe you."
Facing Xia Youhui's complaints, Chen Chu just smiled and reminded him, "Okay, let's talk about it when we get back. Pay attention to your surroundings."
"Yeah." Xia Youhui's expression became serious and he became serious.
They look very handsome standing on the off-road vehicles, but it is actually quite dangerous. If the enemy has a sniper rifle, the first target will be them, not the soldiers in the armored vehicles.
It was obvious that they were being used as another bait, and most of the freshmen noticed this.
However, no further attacks occurred during the rest of the morning.
At noon, everyone returned to the hotel to eat and rest.
According to the arrangement, Chen Chu and his team had no mission in the afternoon. Everyone could stay in the hotel to practice, or they could form a team and go out to actively search for the traces of the believers.
If they were in school, these students might practice for two hours and then go to rest, but after experiencing continuous battles, everyone felt a sense of urgency.
Desperately wanting to become stronger.
Therefore, in the afternoon, Xia Youhui and others went to the military base to practice, but Chen Chu came to the basement.
This hotel has been requisitioned as a base for supporting students from various schools, and the underground garage has been renovated and sealed off to become a resource logistics department.
Looking at the boy walking out of the elevator, the female staff behind the desk said enthusiastically: "Hello, do you need to exchange anything?"
"I have the privilege of 20% off at school. Can I use it here?" Chen Chu asked.
The female staff member smiled and said, "Yes, both the school system and the military base here are connected to the Tianyu Think Tank system, and the permissions are universal."
Chen Chu nodded: "That's good, I want to exchange for two level one life crystals."
"Okay, please enter your school and student ID number on the computer for verification."
Chen Chu sat down in front of the computer and entered Nantian Gaowu and his student ID number on the computer as required.
"Verification passed, please wait."
Soon two small white multi-faceted crystals appeared in Chen Chu's hands.
"By the way, classmate Chen, here is another set of combat aids that the military has prepared for you. Please check them as well."
"Combat auxiliary items." Chen Chu was slightly stunned, watching the female staff member take out a suitcase-sized box from the shelf behind her.
The female staff member placed the suitcase on the table and reminded: "The items inside are explosive. Please handle them with care. There is an instruction manual after opening it."
Explosive. Chen Chu looked stern and didn't dare to be careless.
Chen Chu returned to the hotel room with a suitcase and decided to exchange the money on impulse.
As an invisible force enveloped the two life crystals, silently, the crystals turned into powder with a snap, but this time only 8 points of attributes were converted.
After glancing at the property page, Chen Chu focused his attention on the small box on the table. He was also somewhat curious about what was inside.
Click! The suitcase opened, and inside it were nine metal objects of different shapes, a sci-fi-style pistol, and an instruction manual.
"A trigger-type high-explosive metal bomb, suitable for long-distance delivery. It explodes on the ground after the safety is released. The effective killing range is five meters, and the shock wave covers ten meters."
"The sticky delayed bomb is suitable for special operations. It can be stuck on the target object and exploded after three, five or ten seconds. The explosive penetration is extremely strong."
"Induction-type seismic bombs are suitable for long-distance delivery. The moment of explosion, a seismic shock wave is formed. It is extremely penetrating and extremely lethal to creatures below the fourth level."
"Black steel automatic pistol, caliber 20mm, maximum loading capacity 9 bullets, bullets are propelled by special metal explosives, recoil is strong, one shot can blow up the head of an ordinary mutant beast."
"This item is distributed for free for the first time. Subsequent bombs and bullets can be exchanged for contribution points."
After reading the manual, Chen Chu was a little surprised: "A military novice gift pack? Bombs and pistols."
Chen Chu picked up the pistol, which was more like a hand cannon than a gun, with interest and played with it for a while. With this, they had more options in their fighting methods.
Both the bomb and the black steel pistol are small, which does not affect carrying and switching, and the enemy can be easily hit by surprise.
After studying it for a while, Chen Chu put down his gun and prepared to get down to business. He looked at the armor placed in the corner with hesitation in his eyes.
What made him hesitate was whether he should accumulate for a few more days to gather 20 points of attributes to enhance the Dragon Elephant Skill and break through the third level, or strengthen the defense of the armor first.
After just a slight hesitation, Chen Chu's eyes became firm.
