Chapter 126 Points Match 5: Strange Beasts
Chapter 126 Points Match 5: Strange Beasts
Using his mental vision, Leng Ran led Ai Anbang around in circles, finally managing to shake off the pursuers.
Then, she once again spread her mental energy, searching for traces of the strange beasts in the central area.
The storm mentioned a C-level alien beast, but its species was not specified... There were no signs of anyone fighting the beast or extensive damage to buildings within the city.
So where did this strange beast go? Did the system malfunction and fail to refresh?
Instead of finding any trace of the strange beast, Leng Ran spotted an equipment shop on a street corner, filled with valuable items like storage boxes and grappling hooks.
She was instantly tempted. The storage box could hold the ion cannon, since carrying such a large ion cannon would be inconvenient and make her a large target. The grappling hook gun, on the other hand, could greatly improve her agility.
However, three teams are already engaged in combat around that shop. How can I get there...?
Leng Ran suddenly smiled and looked at Ai Anbang, who was still pinching his nose.
Then the only option left is to offer a more enticing "treasure".
"My coordinates will be displayed again in two minutes." Ai Anbang's voice was muffled as he pinched his nose. "Big brother, let's do it! Kill me and make me drop out of the top five on the leaderboard, and the problem will be solved."
"No way." He coldly refused. "If I wanted to kill you, I would have done it already. Have you ever considered why I let you take these points and then protected you?"
Ai Anbang looked up: "Because I'm your teammate?"
“You don’t know me. I never do anything that doesn’t benefit me.” He smiled coldly and mysteriously. “So, when the time is right, I’ll need you to pay a price.”
Ai Anbang immediately agreed: "No problem. If Big Brother says to go north, I absolutely won't go south!"
Although he didn't understand, there was nothing more precious than points in the competition.
But since Brother Mo Li practically carried him to victory, he had to do something in return.
Leng Ran nodded in satisfaction: "Very good. There are two minutes left until your coordinates are displayed. Give me your gun, and then go to the location I marked for you."
Without hesitation, Ai Anbang handed over his pistol, coldly checked it, and found that there were still five bullets left, enough for her to stir up trouble.
Leng Ran mobilized his mental energy, and a panoramic map of the future city appeared in Ai Anbang's mind. Red target points jumped on the map, and light red lines guided him to the target locations.
This is something only a commander could do—it can display the map image in other people's minds!
He stared wide-eyed in surprise: "Big brother, you have mental power?"
Leng Ran didn't answer: "Time is running out, hurry up!"
"What? Mo Li has mental power? What level is it?"
"He chose individual soldier over command, so his rank shouldn't be high, maybe only one or two levels?"
"That's amazing! My great Mo Li is actually a top-tier dual cultivation genius, one in a million!"
"It's not exactly a secret... According to inside sources, Commander He was willing to adopt Mo Li from the nameless star because he valued his talent for dual cultivation."
"Yes, it's just that his dual cultivation practice wasn't publicized much, but many people in the military know about it."
As Ai Anbang ran towards the location she specified, Leng Ran quietly crept up to the vicinity of the equipment shop, silently timing it in her mind.
Two minutes passed quickly. When Ai Anbang arrived at the location Leng Ran had marked for him, the red beam of light appeared precisely on time, instantly attracting the attention of the three teams that were still locked in a stalemate near the equipment shop.
"Hmm? There seems to be a fat sheep nearby, so close. Shall we go take a look?"
"A red beam of light, it looks like it's just a few minutes away, let's go!"
"Quick, don't let the other teams get there first!"
The three teams retreated in different directions with great coordination, rushing towards where Ai Anbang was located.
Not only these three teams, but also some other people wanted to join in the fun and rushed towards the red pillar of light.
Ai Anbang's voice came through the communicator: "Big brother, this is a dead end, but there's a portal. Should I go in?"
Leng Ran: "No need. There's a building to your southeast. Go inside and hide."
Seeing that most of the people who had gathered at the equipment store had left, Leng Ran carried the ion cannon and swaggered into the store to start selecting the equipment he needed.
I first took a storage box. This storage box uses advanced space folding technology. It has about three cubic meters of storage space inside, but looks like a small Rubik's Cube on the outside, making it easy to carry.
Next up was the retractable grappling hook she had been longing for; she strapped a grappling hook launcher to each of her hands.
"I've hidden myself... These lone soldiers collided and started fighting. Some were eliminated, and others went straight into the hidden portal behind the wall!" Ai Anbang's voice rang out again. "Big brother, did you choose this place to make them misunderstand?"
Leng Ran: "Yes, habitual thinking is terrifying."
If a red beam of light appears right in front of the wall containing the portal, and there is no one else in sight, most people would assume that the person has escaped through the portal.
"After the coordinates are refreshed for the second time, go directly into the portal. We'll meet up a little later."
Ai Anbang: "Okay!"
Just as she was about to leave, a white figure suddenly darted out from the corner!
Leng Ran immediately drew his gun, cocked it, and aimed it at the fast-moving unidentified creature.
In her mental vision, there shouldn't be any living beings in this equipment shop, so what is this thing?
Could it be a strange beast?
The beast was so fast that Leng Ran's mental energy couldn't even keep up with it, but it never made any attacking moves. It just darted around her, leaving behind a series of white afterimages.
His expression was cold and focused, his body was taut, and the gun in his hand did not waver at all.
Just as she was on high alert, the white figure suddenly crashed headfirst into the wall.
"Boom-"
A clear voice sounded.
The white figure fell straight down.
Leng Ran: ...?
This strange beast doesn't seem very intelligent.
But she finally saw the true appearance of this strange beast.
A white wind spirit fox lay straight on the ground, its four legs in the air, its eyes closed, looking incredibly peaceful.
The Wind Spirit Fox is a speed-type alien beast, mostly white, and is always very timid. On the battlefield, it is often used as a scout by high-level alien beasts.
Leng Ran sensed that the wind spirit fox was very dizzy, so he stepped forward and picked it up by the scruff of its neck.
Now is not the time to collect these 500 points; it's too conspicuous. Let's wait until near the end to collect them.
The sound of a storm rang out: "Attention all examinees, a Class C beast will spawn in the central area in five minutes. The result of this draw is the Starflame Dragon. The one who lands the final blow will receive a reward of 500 points. Good luck, examinees!"
He stared in shock at the unconscious Wind Spirit Fox in his hand.
If we're talking about a C-rank beast, it's the Starflame Dragon, and it just recently spawned.
And what is this thing in her hand?
The wind spirit fox suddenly twitched in Leng Ran's hand, its white furry tail swaying slightly, and its eyelids fluttering.
A pair of green eyes appeared before Leng Ran.
C-level alien beasts do indeed have green eyes, but the Wind Spirit Fox's eyes are not eyes at all... they are clearly green glass balls!
