Lin Beichen wore a smile on his face.
“Perfect.”
With such a tour guide, the dangerous green wasteland was like his own back garden.
He could go anywhere at will.
After a moment…
“A mature Ice Arrow Chicken is found 100 meters up ahead. After detection, its danger is at level one. Do you choose to bypass it?”
A warning tone sounded.
“Level one?
The Baidu Map did not tell him to bypass the Ice Arrow Chicken.
“Ice Arrow Chicken?”
Its name sounded cute.
Whether it was braised or steamed, it should be delicious.
Besides, the danger was at level one…
Well, he chose “No”.
He decided to take a look.
After Lin Beichen walked 80 meters, a sound arose.
“Swoosh!”
An ice arrow suddenly flew out of the thick grass.
Lin Beichen didn’t respond and was shot in the knee.
“Sh*t!”
He got an arrow in the knee!
Lin Beichen’s left leg only felt cold and stiff.
Pale blue frost spread on the leg.
“Jrrr…”
The next moment, a gray chicken with red eyes emerged from the grass. Revealing its sharp tusks, it shrieked and rushed at Lin Beichen as fiercely as a vulture.
“Swoosh!”
Lin Beichen pulled out his sword and stabbed.
The chicken was stabbed in the head by the sword light, died, and fell down instantly.
KO! ! !
“The enemy is defeated!
“Hey, this Ice Arrow Chicken is so weak and vulnerable.”
Lin Beichen became a daydreamer.
Seeing that their “prey” was so fierce, the remaining three Ice Arrow Chickens immediately turned around and fled at a very fast speed, like three streaks of lightning.
However, one of them might have been too frightened, as it fled so fast that it actually ran into a tree three meters away. It dashed its brains out with its legs twitching and finally died.
The chicken killed itself.
Lin Beichen was speechless for a while.
These chicken were not only weak, but also timid.
Its only strength was running fast.
He made his Mystery Energy run and rubbed his left knee. The coldness and stiffness soon dissipated.
He rolled up his pants, and found that his knee was red and swollen but not broken.
It was probably Formless Sword Bone that did a great job.
If he were an ordinary person, the ice arrow would have pierced through half of his leg.
“This experiment is necessary because according to the ability of the Ice Arrow Chicken, it can be concluded that in the Baidu Map’s view, the creatures with a danger level below three do not actually pose much threat to me. But I must be careful to confirm if those with a danger level at three and above are fatal.”
Lin Beichen said to himself in his heart.
Carrying two dead chickens, he walked for another 20 minutes and finally arrived at a lake.
This was an unnamed small lake with a radius of several kilometers. On the west side, there was a small river flowing into it. The lake was clear, quiet, blue, and seemingly deep. The rare thing was that there was a wide, white beach beside the lake. He inspected it with the Baidu Map App and found no dangerous creatures around.
“The first Star Badge lies at the bottom of this lake.”
Lin Beichen did some exercise to stretch his joints on the shore, and then plunged into the lake.
On Earth, he was proficient in diving underwater.
And now with the support of Mystery Energy and cultivation base, he could hold his breath for a longer time and move freely underwater.
Relying on the navigation, upon the 10th dive, he finally managed to get the first Star Badge.
“Hua!”
He came out of the water and jump to the shore.
Lin Beichen put the badge in his palm and observed it carefully.
It was an oval badge, like a squashed pebble. Against the dark-blue background, there were numerous silver dots of various sizes, so that at first glance, the entire badge looked like the starry night. No wonder it was called Star Badge.
It was worth mentioning that there was a number at the bottom of the badge—1.
In other words, this was the No. 1 Star Badge.
Lin Beichen did not hesitate to store this badge in the Baidu Netdisk.
Then, without a break, he continued to use Baidu Navigation to find the next one.
Time flew when he was busy locating the badges by following the navigation.
In an instant, eight hours passed by.
“It’s time to go back.”
Lin Beichen stored the ninth Star Badge into the Baidu Netdisk.
He looked down at the phone, and its battery was at level 20%.
“Although cheating will make the task easier, this power consumption…”
Lin Beichen felt distressed because of the power consumption.
This morning, the battery level was still at 50%.
In this way, he had to spend 10 gold coins on charging the phone once every two days.
In the Midyear Competition, he obtained the reward of 50 gold coins, but it was not enough to support the consumption for more than 10 days.
When the preliminary was over, he would have no money.
“I must hurry to make money.”
Lin Beichen carried the two dead chickens while thinking about that, turned around, and walked toward the camp.
The wilderness at night was dominated by creatures other than human beings, and it was very dangerous.
Only the camp was safe.
On the way back, Lin Beichen still used the navigation to avoid all possible dangers.
It was not the right time to save the battery.
At last, before it was dark, he arrived at a sparse wood five miles away from the camp.
All of a sudden—
“Whoosh!”
A rope net flew out of a tree aside, appeared above Lin Beichen’s head, and was about to envelop him.
“Clang!”
Lin Beichen drew his sword.
The sword light flashed.
The rope net was slit open.
“Who?”
Lin Beichen got out of the net through the slit.
Then, a few flying ropes whose both ends were attached to one iron ball rushed at him while coiling like a python.
“Swoosh!”
Lin Beichen directly displayed Big Dipper Falling.
One sword brought three shadows.
The flying rope was cut apart in an instant.
There was a hasty whistle in the woods.
Several figures jumped out of the trees, hurried away, and fled directly.
It was quiet suddenly around.
It seemed like nothing had happened.
“It seems that some students are ambushing around the camp and planning to snatch others’ badges, and that once they fail after one strike, they will immediately run away.”
Lin Beichen guessed.
This was not surprising.
Before finding out that the Baidu Map App could search for Star Badges, Lin Beichen also had the idea to steal. By ambushing directly on the few roads to the camp that had to be used and snatching some badges, he could score high and pass the test. After all, searching by himself was slower than robbing others.
It seemed that someone had already had the same plan.
Great minds think alike.
Fortunately, he had reacted quickly.
He refreshed himself immediately, focusing his attention on moving on.
The rest of the way, there was no attempted robbery.
20 minutes later, he arrived safely at the camp. After Cloudy Dream Guards at the city gate checked his stone card, Lin Beichen was allowed to enter and then went to the square.
At this time, most of the students had returned.
Lin Beichen glanced at others casually and was delighted immediately.
Because there were a few students… half-naked with bruised faces.
“Alas, I’m really unlucky today. I searched the wilderness for a whole day, but I didn’t even see any trace of a badge. Moreover, someone robbed me outside the camp, and the f**king guy silently beat me with a stick, so that half of my brain still hurts by now,” a student with a big bump on the head said sadly.
“You just have a bump on your head. I was not only robbed, but even was stripped naked,” another shirtless student replied while shivering, trying to weep but failing to shed a tear.
“Yeah, they’re too f**king mean. I was also stripped naked. If I knew who did it, I would kill them…”
“Ah, I didn’t know why the assholes were all masked. But now I know that they must have used your clothes for the masks to facilitate their robbing…”
Some of the students who had been robbed exchanged their experiences of being beaten.
After sharing their experiences, they felt less painful.
Lin Beichen went to the stone list in the center of the square and looked up.
Today’s scores were partially released.
It was no surprise that the Daughter of Destiny Ling Chen ranked high on the top of the list, who found a Star Badge and got 10 points.
And the other students below her all got zero points.
Including Tao Wancheng and Li Tao, the geniuses of Royal National Junior College.
“These students are too weak,” Lin Beichen said to himself shamelessly.
