Chapter 235: Chasing
The first line of defense was still the thorn vine seeds brought by Wang Teng. After choosing a good location and planting the seeds, he watered them with the stored blood of exotic beasts. Soon, the winding thorn vines intertwined with each other, and in the blink of an eye, a three-meter-high circular fence was built.
The poisonous spikes glow an eerie purple light in the sun, and as long as a strange beast approaches, the vine branches will wake up and hunt.
The second line of defense is various man-made traps, which, combined with Lan Xin's water mirror technique, cover an area of tens of kilometers around them.
Behind the first and second lines of defense, Ning Xuan also placed several protective shields. Once there is an invasion of strange energy, the protective shields will automatically open.
It took Ning Xuan and her group two days to clean up this place. This time, there were 13 people in their group. Except for Tang Xue and Min Wu who built their own tree house together, the rest of them built their own tree house according to their own wishes.
The one in the middle of the nine banyan trees is the tallest and has the most luxuriant branches and leaves. Ning Xuan built a tree house on this tree.
Ning Xuan sat on the rattan chair that Lin Mo had just made, holding the locator and frowning as she thought. This time they were heading towards the dark forest at the coordinate point (83.4, 87.9).
In the special mission assigned to the S-class team by the military, if they successfully draw the map of the Dark Forest, they will receive an S-class energy chamber and three S-class starships; these two things are good things that cannot be bought with money.
The time limit for the graduation joint examination is half a year. At the end of half a year, everyone must arrive at the assembly point designated by the military and then return home together.
If you fail to reach the assembly point designated by the military and complete the return mission, your score will be cancelled and all your personal property will be confiscated.
Candidates whose scores were cancelled and who were stranded on the new star body were all punished with hard labor.
The reason for such a rule is that candidates are not allowed to stay without permission.
After all, the nova body is rich in resources, and these resources cannot be mined privately without the approval of the military.
Ning Xuan looked at the current coordinates on the locator, (121.1, 82.5), which meant she was not far from the Dark Forest.
"Master, the people we rescued yesterday are here." Lan Xin knelt outside the house to report to Ning Xuan.
"Come in and talk." Ning Xuan frowned and put the locator aside and said.
Lan Xin responded yes, walked into the room and came to Ning Xuan.
Lan Xin knelt at Ning Xuan's feet in a humble and respectful manner, "Master, I just used the Water Mirror Technique to check the surrounding situation and found traces of those three people 50 kilometers southwest of the area."
After Lan Xin's mental power level was upgraded, his water mirror technique was also upgraded. Originally, he could only see the area within a radius of 30 kilometers around himself.
After the upgrade, the monitoring range has reached 50 kilometers. Moreover, the shape of the monitoring origin and the monitoring area can be changed at will while the total area remains unchanged.
For example, right now, those three people are actually about 100 kilometers away from their current location.
"Please look." Lan Xin bowed slightly, raised her hand and waved it in front of Ning Xuan. A hazy mist rose and then gathered into a mirror. A picture gradually emerged in the rippling water.
Next to the low bushes, there were three tall but disheveled figures leaning against each other in a crooked manner.
The man with a scar on his face was using a dagger to remove the bandage wrapped around his leg. The wound on his leg had already scabbed over. He looked at the wound and sighed, "The lady I met yesterday must be a great alchemist. The medicine she gave me was really effective. This wound has been there for more than ten days and has not healed. The medicine she gave me yesterday has healed after only two applications."
"Yes, it's amazing. Third brother, are you sure that young lady went into the forest? It's so dangerous in the forest!" another person exclaimed.
"When have I ever been wrong in my judgment? Now it depends on whether you want to keep looking. In fact, even if we find it, what can we do? They have already rejected us and there is no way they will take us in." The smallest of the three sighed.
"Do you still remember the bounty list in District 13? Don't you think that young lady looks like the person Mr. Mo is seeking a bounty for?" said the man who spoke first.
"Yes, the most important feature of that bounty is the young female alchemist. Big brother, you are really awesome. You got the key point right away." The second brother clapped his thigh and said.
"Brother, no matter if she is on the wanted list or not, she saved our lives. You don't want to find her and claim the reward, do you?" The smallest one's face suddenly darkened.
"How, how could that be? I just want to find her and repay her for saving my life. Why do you think so, third brother?" The eldest brother smiled unnaturally.
Although he denied it, the third brother still saw some regret behind his smile.
"Brother, second brother, let's hurry back to Area 13. We've been delayed for so long and we don't have enough supplies." The third brother, who seemed to have special tracking skills, spoke up.
When the eldest brother heard this, his face darkened. The third brother ignored him and walked in the opposite direction of the forest area.
The second brother and the eldest brother exchanged glances secretly, and then they followed.
Ning Xuan looked at the scene inside and saw the man with a scar on his face clenching his fists. He was obviously unwilling to give up.
However, he had no ability to track, so he had to leave.
"Go call Di Youlin over." Ning Xuan said with a gloomy face.
"Yes, master." Lan Xin answered respectfully.
The tree house that Di Youlin built was on the same tree as Ning Xuan's, just below Ning Xuan, so he arrived quickly.
"Greetings, master." Di Youlin bowed to Ning Xuan as he came in.
Lan Xin followed behind.
"Youlin, you and Lanxin go kill the people, and try not to make any noise. Lanxin, follow them and find the specific location of District 13. Just kill those two, and don't alarm the other one." Ning Xuan ordered.
It was really unnecessary for her to save people. Now she has to clean up the mess.
After all, the location they just found was not too far from here. If that person sold this location, it would bring him trouble.
She didn't want to give up the place she had just built so soon.
"Also, enter the safe zone of Area 13 and check the bounty, and then check the identity of Mr. Mo." Ning Xuan ordered.
Di Youlin can fly, and Lan Xin can use water mirror technique to track the enemy. With the cooperation of the two, they can complete the task in the shortest time.
"Yes, master." Although Di Youlin didn't know who he was going to kill, he agreed without any hesitation.
Di Youlin's eyes were cold. Her master was so kind, the person she wanted to kill must be someone who deserved to die.
