Xu Xiao was choked by Lu Li and suddenly felt a tightness in her chest, she stamped her feet and followed him angrily.
The corridor of the insect nest is not too long. After bending down and walking for tens of meters, the surroundings suddenly become clear.
Ma Han set up his flaming long bow and looked around by the light of the fire. Little did he know that it didn't matter if he didn't look at it. One look at it almost made him pee.
This underground space was filled with densely packed insect eggs. Each of these eggs is the size of an adult's head, and they are slowly squirming under the light of the fire.
"With so many insect eggs, if they all hatch..." Xu Xiao murmured, not daring to think about it further. At this moment, she understood what Lu Li wanted to do, and she couldn't help but feel a little ashamed.
"Lu Li, once these eggs hatch, they will pose a huge threat to the school. Let us help you clean them up." Lu Li didn't stop her. Anyway, his purpose was to increase his soul points, get three more people to help clean up, and save energy.
Unhatched eggs are disgusting but have no offensive power. After a lot of work, Lu Li gained nearly 20 soul points.
[Ding, it's detected that player Lu Li's soul points have reached 50, unlock the soul soldier.]
Soul soldiers, as the name suggests, reshape collected souls into soldiers. Every 1 soul point is equivalent to 1 experience point.
With Lu Li's current soul points, he can recreate a lv.2 blade-armed mantis and as long as Lu Li's soul points do not return to zero, the soul soldiers will be immortal and exist forever.
There was also an unexpected surprise. The unhatched mantis eggs were actually judged as blade-armed mantises, which allowed Lu Li to easily win the advanced mission.
[It has been detected that player Lu Li has killed 100 blade-armed mantises! Ability advancement mission completed.]
[Task reward: Challenger Treasure Box x1, ability 'Blade Arm' upgraded to Platinum level.]
Choosing to put the reward on hold for now, Lu Li stretched with satisfaction. Just as he was thinking about where to kill monsters next, an announcement suddenly appeared in the data panel.
[Congratulations to player Zhao Hui for becoming the first player in the world to reach lv.1, and will be rewarded with a Black Iron upgrade treasure chest x1.]
...
"Zhao Hui?"
Zhao Jin, who didn't know how to complete the clan leader's mission, stared at the announcement on the panel, with a hint of joy on his brows. The name is unfamiliar, he is not a direct descendant of the Zhao family.
At the time of the announcement, the coordinate point was located at Yongcheng No. 1 Middle School, which was also very close. It's a very good recruitment target.
"Ah Hao." Zhao Jin shouted. A bald man with a scarred face appeared at the door.
"Brother Jin, you called me?"
"Have you seen this boy named Zhao Hui? Go and bring him back to me. Make sure to keep him safe. I want him all alive." The bald man named Ah Hao nodded and was about to walk out, Zhao Jin stopped him again.
"Hey, wait a minute, this is a special period, bring this guy with you." Ah Hao's face was expressionless.
"There's no need, Brother Jin, those bugs can't threaten me."
"You can take it with you if you are asked to take it. In addition, take ten elemental crystals with you. If there is an emergency, you can upgrade the level."
"Understood."
...
Inside the classroom.
"What the hell is this game setting? You can only absorb ten elemental crystals a day?" Zhao Hui stared at the panel in front of him and cursed.
He originally thought that with the gathered elemental crystal, he could rise to two or three levels no matter what. Unexpectedly, after absorbing ten first-order elemental crystals, the system actually prompted that the absorption limit had been reached today
How can a genius like him become bigger and stronger when his level is so suppressed Seeing Zhao Hui's sudden rage, Wang Xuyan, who was serving him, rolled his eyes and said flatteringly.
"Brother Zhao, don't get angry. I think the system's leveling up is very friendly to you."
"Oh? Why?" Zhao Hui felt the comfort coming from his body and asked.
"Think about it, since no one can absorb after limited amount of elemental crystal every day, it is equivalent to forcing people to be on the same starting line."
"And you have awakened the Diamond level ability, which is exactly what those wastes will never get."
"You will always be ahead if the level is the same."
"Yes, so upgrading the restrictions will be beneficial to me." After listening to Wang Xuyan explanation, Zhao Hui's face showed joy and he threw forward the elemental crystal in his hand that had not yet been absorbed.
"It's up to you to absorb these three elemental crystals. Follow me and you won't suffer any loss." Wang Xuyan hurriedly caught elemental crystal, and the smile on her face became more and more flattering.
"Thank you, Brother Zhao."
Ying Zian beside her looked a little gloomy when he saw that all the elemental crystal had fallen into Wang Xuyan's hands. As if to show his presence, he said in a flattering manner.
"Brother Zhao, you are now the world's first lv.1 player. I saw in the announcement that there is an upgrade treasure box. Why don't you open it and let the brothers open their eyes?"
"Huh? Do you want to open your eyes?" Zhao Hui said with a faint smile. Ying Zian immediately realized that he had said the wrong thing, and his back was soaked in cold sweat:
"Uh, Brother Zhao, that's not what I meant..." Before he finished speaking, he was hit on the shoulder by an arc of electricity, and his whole body flew backwards, smashing over a large number of desks.
"Wang Xuyan, cure him, don't let my 'brother' die like this." Zhao Hui ordered coldly, Wang Xuyan nodded obediently, and the next second, green light particles fell on Ying Zian's body.
The injury that was hit by the lightning bolt healed quickly and there was no trace left, but the pain didn't go away so quickly.
"Ahem...Brother Zhao, I was wrong..." After recovering, Ying Zian stuttered and crawled towards Zhao Hui on his knees.
"Huh, brother? When you are a dog, you have to be conscious of being a dog. Don't be clever." Zhao Hui's words were light, and there was a sense of arrogance from inside to outside that he did not regard Ying Zian as a human being.
"Go and guard the door. I don't want to see your bad face now."
"Yes, yes! I am your dog, Brother Zhao. I will never dare to do it again, never again..." Ying Zian crawled out of the classroom.
"Hmph, I'm in a good mood today, so I'll let you open your eyes." Zhao Hui seemed to be very satisfied with Ying Zian's attitude and displayed the upgraded treasure box in front of everyone.
With a soft click, the dark treasure chest opened, emitting a dazzling red light.
"Damn, what a dazzling light."
"As expected of the treasure chest opened by Mr. Zhao Hui, it must be of the best quality."
"Brother Hui is so awesom."
The treasure chest has not yet been fully opened, and the voices of praise are already rising one after another.
After the red light faded away, everyone could clearly see the objects in the treasure box. It is a elemental crystal that is blood red all over.
"It turns out to be a second-order elemental crystal." Tian Yuhao was the first to speak, and his voice was so loud that even Ying Zian outside the classroom heard him clearly.
As the only player under Zhao Hui who has the [Detection] ability, he has made preparations for investigation long before the treasure chest is opened, in order to show his role immediately and flatter Zhao Hui.
"I thought elemental crystal only came in black and gray, but I didn't expect it to be available in red. Brother Zhao really opened our eyes." Wang Xuyan immediately added, with a trace of imperceptible greed flashing in her eyes.
She knew that Zhao Hui had reached the upper limit of absorption this week, and if she worked hard, she might be able to get the second-order elemental crystal.
Sure enough, after checking the properties of the second-order elemental crystal, Zhao Hui's face mostly lost its joy.
"It just has more experience points and no special attributes. Besides, I can't upgrade today, so it's useless to keep it with me. How about..." A beautiful shadow appeared in Zhao Hui's mind. It would be good if I could use this second-order elemental crystal in exchange for Xu Xiao to join.
That woman's ability was very useful, but it was a pity that she had some misunderstandings about his initial thunderous methods.
But it does not matter. As a woman, if you coax her with gifts, you will surely win her easily.
Thinking of this, Zhao Hui couldn't help but reveal an evil smile on his face. A successful man like him should have a few beautiful women standing behind him?
Just as Zhao Hui was enjoying a bright future, Ying Zian's voice suddenly came from the corridor outside the classroom.
"Brother Zhao, Lu Li is back."
