Chapter 11 Awakening

Feng Qing shifted his attention to other people.

In his eyes, Zhong Yuan's journey to the Fangjie was basically over.

On the other side, a team arrived at the safe zone halfway up the mountain first.

There were several houses there, which were originally shops in the scenic area. Now they were all abandoned, and not even a good table or chair could be seen.

There was a charger in the house, but it was out of power.

Turning on the faucet, not a drop of water came out.

It was impossible to survive for three days with only a pot of water in the backpack. Compared with no electricity, no water is more deadly, which means that we have to find a water source.

Suddenly, a girl in the team spoke unhappily, "Xie Yifeng, we just met a boy at the foot of the mountain. Why did you stop us from bringing him into the team?"

The team usually consists of 6 people.

A class of 40 people can form 6 teams, and the remaining team can only have 4 people.

If all the people have been formed by other teams, their team will face a shortage of members, and their combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced.

Xie Yifeng said calmly, "The more people there are, the fewer Xu crystals each person will get. Our team's goal is to get at least four Xu crystals per person. That boy looks weak and will only drag us down."

Another boy hesitated, "Are you sure that the four of us can kill so many frost snakes?"

Xie Yifeng said proudly, "Of course! My brother is a third-year student in the college's special class. He told me the distribution location of the frost snakes a long time ago. Moreover, he told me the content of the military training in advance and asked me to bring a power bank! Enough to charge each of our watches once a day!"

No more pretending, I'm going to show my cards!

I have my brother to protect me! You just follow me!

The three teammates suddenly became excited.

Xie Yifeng took the opportunity to propose, "Is it okay for you to be the captain of the team?"

"No objection!"

Everyone answered in unison.

The unhappiness was swept away, and they even secretly felt lucky that they formed a team with Xie Yifeng and that there were only four people in the team.

One more person consumes one more electricity, which is too much!

One person said gratefully, "Xie Yifeng, thank you! In fact, you can fight a lot of Xujing by yourself, and you don't need to team up with us. When you have enough, you can send a distress signal and leave directly."

Xie Yifeng shook his head and said, "It's wrong to think so. After the military training, the instructor will give everyone a score based on their performance. Leaving early will lower the score."

He hesitated and said, "Anyway, this military training is very important, don't underestimate it. If you want to survive in the Fangjie, you have to rely on teamwork and help each other."

These three teammates were selected by Xie Yifeng after careful observation on the transport plane.

They look ordinary, not like those from the Xuneng family, so they should be easy to win over and control.

Xie Yifeng plans to build a good relationship and form his own team before these freshmen grow up.

His statement made the only girl in the team like him.

Huang Xiaoyan just questioned Xie Yifeng for not recruiting more people to join the team, but now she admires him very much.

Her face flushed slightly, and she whispered, "Thank you anyway!"

Xie Yifeng smiled and said, "We are teammates, so there is no need to be so polite. Let's do this, two people stay and occupy the territory for the night. Another person will go with me to find a water source."

Huang Xiaoyan said, "I'll go with you!"

The other two boys who occupied the territory had no objection.

They were eager to stay in the safe zone and not go out to explore. Anyway, Xie Yifeng just said that we should act together and share the Xu crystals we got.

They were too naive.

Xie Yifeng had a map with him, and he knew exactly where the water source was.

He also knew that there was a snake nest not far away. While no one was aware of it, he went over to destroy it and got the first Xu crystal.

Xie Yifeng took Huang Xiaoyan away from the safe zone halfway up the mountain.

At the same time, Zhong Yuan climbed up along the path with a simple trekking pole.

After climbing more than 200 meters, two forks appeared in front of them.

The road on the left obviously led to the safe zone, and the road on the right led to nowhere.

Zhong Yuan was in no hurry to rest, so he decided to walk around first, and took the right side.

The further he went, the denser and darker the forest became, and the path that was only one person wide became narrower and narrower.

At some point, you could hear a pin drop around you, and there was no sound at all, and the temperature obviously dropped by several degrees.

Zhong Yuan became alert, holding a stick in one hand and a knife in the other.

On the treetop twenty meters above his head, a snow-white snake was entangled in the branches.

It was more than two meters long and as thick as a fist, and it was spitting out its tongue silently. Wherever it went, the branches and leaves condensed into crystal ice, no longer green and fresh.

The specialty of Shemen Mountain, the frost and snow snake.

Without the entry of the Xu Neng people, it was rampant in the Fangjie, with almost no natural enemies, resulting in rampant reproduction and an astonishing number.

The once safe zone is no longer very safe.

Zhong Yuan encountered a frost and snow snake unconsciously, and the snake did not find him.

This is because the frost snake relies on temperature sensing to detect the movement of its prey.

Zhong Yuan has no body temperature, and in the eyes of the frost snake, he is no different from a piece of wood.

At most, the wood is moving.

One man and one snake, living in peace.

It's a pity that Zhong Yuan doesn't have eyes on his head, otherwise, he would have shot the snake down no matter what.

After walking for a while, the temperature was getting lower and lower.

Zhong Yuan became more alert and looked around, and found that many plants and trees were all frozen with a layer of snow-white frost.

No wonder it was getting colder and colder, there were aliens nearby!

Zhong Yuan held his saber tightly, guarding against attacks that could come at any time.

Snap!

Suddenly! There was a sound of something breaking above his head.

Something fell from the sky and fell directly in front of him.

Zhong Yuan was shocked and hurriedly stepped back. Looking closely, it turned out to be a big snow-white snake.

Its scales were very beautiful, shining with pearl-like luster. From different angles, pink and green sparkled.

The ground nearby was quickly covered with a layer of snow-white.

"Huh? This snake is an alien?!"

Zhong Yuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Above his head, a broken ice branch was still connected to a little bark, hanging in the air and swaying...

Raised in the Fangjie, there has been no natural enemy, and the character of the frost snake has also changed a little.

It used to be a good hunter, but now it is cute and often falls from the tree accidentally.

Those who are unlucky will fall to death directly. Those who are not dead will just lie on the ground and wake up before walking around.

Zhong Yuan blinked his eyes, stepped forward, and cut off the snake's head with a knife.

It was too easy, like picking up a bargain, he was a little embarrassed.

Then, a snow-white bead appeared.

Zhong Yuan took it in his hand and observed it carefully, "Is this thing a Xu crystal?"

The instructor is willing to help everyone increase the success rate of absorbing Xu crystals.

But in order to increase the probability by 20%, the secret on his body will be exposed, which is not worth the loss.

Zhong Yuan does not want to be caught by the college and taken to the hospital for dissection.

Taking advantage of the summer vacation, he spent a lot of time searching the Internet for things about Xu energy and Xu crystals.

The relevant information is still top secret, but there is already a special section on the dark web to discuss it.

Xu crystal is a kind of energy crystal. As long as you hold it in your palm, you can absorb its power.

It sounds simple, but in practice, Zhong Yuan found it very difficult.

He had been holding it for five minutes, but the Ruin Crystal didn't change at all.

"No way, Lanlan and I have the same parents, she has a natural talent, but I am useless? This is unscientific! Is it that the way I absorbed the Ruin Crystal is wrong? This thing actually needs to be taken orally?"

Zhong Yuan frowned and murmured, "At least give me an ability! Anything is fine, I'm really not picky!"

He was so depressed that he almost vomited blood.

Suddenly, a prompt appeared in his mind.

"Frost Snake Ruin Crystal was found, do you want to absorb it?"

"Frost Snake Ruin Crystal has the following abilities."

"Super perception, yellow level, upgradeable."

"Ice condensation, yellow level, upgradeable."

"Regeneration, yellow level, upgradeable."

"Death immunity, disaster level, cannot be upgraded."

Zhong Yuan's pupils shrank slightly.

What's going on? Is he hallucinating?

Anyway, he won't die if he tries, Zhong Yuan said in his heart, "Absorb."

In an instant, the Ruin Crystal turned into a white light and drilled into his body.
