Chapter 185: Each Gained Something

“Tsk, tsk, tsk…” Xia Yan sighed and used her dagger to cut the badly mangled Ape Ghoul corpse beneath her feet.

The surroundings could be described as a complete mess after being destroyed by the Ape Ghoul King.

To the Ape Ghoul King, crushed stones, trees, and even Ape Ghouls were all the same.

“I found the medal,” Jiang Xiao said as he pulled out a bloodstained medal that was slightly larger than a coin from the body of an Ape Ghoul. After wiping off the blood, he could vaguely see the smiley face on the medal.

Such bad taste.

Jiang Xiao harvested the Star Bead in the skull of the Ape Ghoul’s head. 2,500 yuan!

Awesome!

He raised his head and looked at everyone. “How’s it going?”

Xia Yan quickly harvested the Star Beads and said, “One medal and three Ape Ghoul Star Beads.”

Wow! Another 7,500 yuan!

“Li Weiyi, take the lead. Be careful and stay alert.” Han Jiangxue ordered.

Xia Yan said excitedly, “There should be more corpses in front. The Ape Ghoul King has already opened up a route for us. Let’s keep up with it, lest we lose it.”

Han Jiangxue shot Xia Yan a cold glance and said, “Losing track of it is better than being discovered.”

Xia Yan puckered her lips and murmured aggrievedly, “Uh…”

As the leader who opened up the path, the Ape Ghoul King bulldozed its way through and ruined the area.

Fortunately, the area was rather far away from Task Point No. 1 and the other teams had yet to infiltrate the area. Otherwise, plenty of teams would have suffered.

How to solve the issue?

The only solution was to scavenge!

As the elite team of Jiangbin High School and the newly-formed team for the Beijiang Province High School League, Team No. 76 actually deviated from the proper route under Jiang Xiao’s leadership and became the “scavenging team”.

They followed the Ape Ghoul King and picked up corpses, Star Beads, medals, and weapons…

However, they rarely encountered any living savages and Ape Ghouls. The ones that could have had already done so, while the rest turned into corpses.

The beautiful and pleasant period lasted for more than 20 minutes. Until there were no longer any sounds of heavy footsteps coming from the dense forest. Everyone knew that the Star Power of the Ape Ghoul King had already been depleted!

There would definitely be sounds, regardless of whether they were having fun or behaving wildly.

Li Weiyi advanced forward while everyone in the team kept their guards up and followed him. They passed through the fallen trees and the corpses scattered everywhere, trying to find the Ape Ghoul King.

“Its Star Power may have been depleted, but it’s still physically full of energy,” Jiang Xiao said while scavenging and grabbing an Ape Ghoul Star Bead. “It’s still the powerful king who has a strong body. Xia Yan.”

Sticking her dagger into the spine of the Ape Ghoul which she was ripping apart, she asked, “Huh?”

Jiang Xiao said, “It’s time to test your dagger skills and speed.”

Xia Yan raised her bloodstained face and said proudly and with confidence, “Once you poison it, I’ll have no problem.”

Jiang Xiao said with a sullen expression, “What poison? I was clearly healing it.”

Xia Yan smiled and said, “Enough, little toxic healer.”

She then tossed the bloodstained Star Bead and medal to Han Jiangxue. “Remember to give me a push.”

Han Jiangxue grabbed the battle spoils and said, “I can try blowing them into my Sky Smasher.”

“Don’t do that. This Ape Ghoul is too big, what if it can’t enter the Sky Smasher?” Xia Yan said in a moment of panic. She had long been excited and looking forward to killing the Ape Ghoul King. Yet, Han Jiangxue wanted to use the Sky Smasher to get rid of it?

Xia Yan pleaded. “I’ll kill it with a single stab. Let me try, Xuexue. Let me do it…”

Han Jiangxue was speechless.

“Go, go, go. Chase after it. These beasts regain their Star Power very quickly,” Xia Yan said while putting away her dagger and standing up. She then returned to the team and pushed Li Weiyi’s spine. She continued, “We probably won’t encounter any creatures of other dimensions along the way. They’ve all been scared away.”

Li Weiyi turned around and looked at Han Jiangxue.

Han Jiangxue nodded and said, “Hurry.”

Li Weiyi took a deep breath and charged forwards swiftly.

To her surprise, he stopped after running a distance of just over 200 meters, because he saw several savage corpses that had been torn and ripped apart by the Ape Ghoul King.

The chasing team instantly became scavengers again…

The soldiers in the monitoring room watched the live footage of the first-person point of view of the members of Team No. 76, feeling extremely flabbergasted.

They felt that the team had completely exploited the fact that the Ape Ghouls were angst by nature.

The Medical Awakened of this team is really cheap, uh… full of ideas…

However, they felt fortunate for the fact that Jiang Xiao was still somewhat intelligent even though he was bold and arrogant. He stayed far away from the Ape Ghoul King while following it and so far, he had yet to encounter any danger.

At the same time, there was also an intelligent team that had made use of the characteristics of the creatures of other dimensions. However, they were different from Team No. 76 because they made use of it reasonably.

Task Point No. 2 was rather far away, but it was also a supply point. It was located on the edge of the forest and there were a total of four medium-sized cabins and one treehouse.

There was a team of guardians stationed there, and there were probably more than 20 Chinese soldiers allocated to the various cabins.

Team No. 24, Gao Junwei’s team, happened to be resting and recuperating in the cabin where the purple medals were distributed.

Yu Zhen was seated on the chair with her legs crossed gracefully as she fiddled with the two purple medals in her hand, staring at the green forest outside the window and seemingly thinking about something.

Clearly, the two purple medals were the so-called quest items, and they would be considered to have completed the main task so long as they returned to the entrance point.

However, the team chose to stay in the cabin instead of leaving.

Zhang Weiliang borrowed some hot water from the soldiers, opened a few packs of combat ration, and consciously served them to his teammates.

There were no monitoring rooms at the task point and the soldiers there only wore communication equipment. They were there to distribute the quest items and wait for orders from the superiors, as well as rescue signals that could possibly appear.

The soldiers didn’t know the team’s strategy and simply thought that they were trying to replenish their energy and recuperate. They didn’t say anything much.

Zhang Weiliang heated up two bags of sauerkraut fried rice and two bags of salted pork noodles. He also opened two cans of food.

Yu Zhen waved her hands and turned down the food.

“Have some pineapple in syrup, then. You can’t possibly go hungry for five days?” Zhang Mingming said with a smile.

Gao Junwei said, “Did we come too early…”

Before he finished speaking, a team of four barged into the house.

Gao Junwei’s eyes lit up and he turned around to scan the team that had entered without any restraint.

Zhang Weiliang was stuffing his face with the canned braised pork, and his movements instantly became stiff.

In the team, Zhang Mingming and Yu Zhen were the only ones scrutinizing the team quietly with straight faces.

Similarly, the team of four that entered also saw the team of opponents eating. They immediately tensed up.

Without a doubt, Jiangbin High School No. 3’s team was famous and had a good reputation. They were definitely the elite team and the Trojan horse.

However, when they saw eight soldiers in the room, they became relieved.

A young man stepped in and said to the soldiers in a friendly manner, “Hello, we’re here to collect the mission items.”

The soldier nodded and said, “What’s your team number?”

“No. 71.”

The soldier wrote something down on the name list before tossing a purple medal towards them.

Yu Zhen turned to look at Zhang Mingming with an ambiguous gaze.

Zhang Mingming nodded inexplicably.

Yu Zhen raised the corners of her lips and glanced at the team of four that was leaving quickly, after which she stood up slowly.

Bang!

Gao Junwei kicked Zhang Weiliang’s chair and hollered. “Why are you still eating!?!”

Zhang Weiliang put the can down silently and followed the three of them out.

“You guys!” Just as they were about to leave, the soldier hollered solemnly from behind. “Clean up your trash!”

Zhang Mingming hurriedly turned around and said with a smile, “Sir, we haven’t finished eating yet. Please wait a moment, we will be back immediately.”

The soldier froze for a moment, for he did not expect such a response.

More than ten minutes later, an order could be heard coming from the communication device on the soldier’s waist all of a sudden. “Task Point No. 2, Team No. 2, begin your mission. 500 to 600 meters south. Recall participant No.1 and participant No. 3 from Team No. 71. Take them back to the cabin to get their injuries treated. Once they’ve healed, send them out of the Arsenal.”

Four of the soldiers in the cabin quickly stood up and rushed out of the wooden house.

To their surprise, they actually ran into a team that consisted of all four members.

It was Team No. 24, which members said that they had yet to finish eating and would be back soon.

The soldiers frowned secretly. Based on experience, they could tell that the team had just experienced a battle.

The young leader carrying a shield and some bright yellow weapons with his right arm advanced forward silently.

Their attention was caught by a handsome boy in the team.

Two blood-stained headbands could be seen on his fingers and he seemed to be in good spirits while walking and fiddling with them.

Those were obviously the camera devices belonging to the other teams. Each headband was worth 100 points, and losing one was enough for a team to be destroyed.

Putting aside the bloodstained headband, the soldiers had received orders to recall one of the teams. Without a doubt, that meant that one of the teams had been destroyed.

Gao Junwei’s team walked past the soldiers and returned to the cabin.

The four members of the team had different mentalities and emotions. Zhang Mingming was the only one who continued to eat. He tried to persuade them. “You guys should eat something…”

Yu Zhen seemed to have some appetite. Looking at the blood-stained headband on Gao Junwei’s arm, she smirked a little and grabbed the canned pineapple her teammate handed her.
