Valley Hunt Rules:
There are two venues for the event, and the size of the two valleys is very close, and the academy will put a hundred "Zhaoyang crabs" in the crevices of the cliffs of the two valleys, and in each valley, there are also twenty man-eating flowers and thirty rosary zombies, which are monsters that come out of the ground to discourage those who participate in the event.
The time of the activity is a stick of incense, and those who burn out of the valley are eliminated. A stick of incense out of the valley, and bring out the largest number of ** Zhaoyang crabs for the champion, if the number is the same, then the length of time to determine the winner. Trainees entering the valley are not allowed to wear equipment with additional characteristics, and the overall combat effectiveness of the equipment is suppressed within a relatively fair rank. Participants are not allowed to bring any other medicines, except for two bottles of powerful gold creation medicine and two powerful magic potions.
For this gamble between Hai Tianlan and Jiang Cheng, the academy also attaches great importance to it, and the academy puts the activity time of these two people together, and they are also the last two participants in this valley hunting activity.
A total of more than 80 people participated in this valley hunt, and the best result has now produced a person who came out with ninety-eight ** Zhaoyang crabs before a stick of incense burned out, which is the best one in the valley hunting of previous ceremonies! Therefore, many people are secretly worried, no matter who wins or loses Hai Tianlan and Jiang Cheng, they will make such a big move, if the two of them can't even surpass this achievement, it will really make people see a joke.
At this time, everyone was very excited, and Hai Tianlan and Jiang Cheng were already standing outside the valley where they belonged.
Dean Ren, who personally presided over the event, nodded to one of his subordinates, and when a cluster of flames popped out from the mentor's fingertips to light the fireworks, a piece of sandalwood in the incense burner in front of Dean Ren was also lit.
"Bang ......"
In the violent explosion of the fireworks, Hai Tianlan and Jiang Cheng rushed into two different valleys at the same time.
The valleys are no different from the usual ones, with barren places and places full of low grass and bushes.
The crabs are all in the cracks of the cliff wall, and it stands to reason that the contestants do not need to enter the relatively open place in the middle of the valley, they can just walk close to the cliff. However, in order to increase the difficulty, they have many magical restrictions in the valley, and most of the monsters hidden underground are concentrated close to the cliff wall.
"Whoosh......"
A whistling sound came from behind Hai Tianlan, and a man-eating flower that emerged from the ground shot two vines at him as he ran!
At the same time, a sudden sound of dirt was stirred up in front of Hai Tianlan, and a bald zombie wearing a shabby robe and a huge rosary on its chest crawled out of the ground!
Hai Tianlan's wind control step immediately accelerated, and the vines shot by the man-eating flower behind him lost their target, and at this time, his hands suddenly stretched out, and he directly grabbed the wrists of the pair of magic hands that the rosary zombie probed at him.
Not being able to use equipment with additional traits means that you can't use weapons, so these monsters can only be solved by punching and kicking, and the big deal is that the power increase given by the weapon is missing.
The zombie's body smells of decay, but its body is very indestructible! Their level among monsters is higher than that of skeleton monsters in the orc tombs, and their power is not hard to imagine!
With Hai Tianlan's current strength, it is not enough to grab the wrist of the rosary zombie to lift it up and throw it like a toy, after all, it is a monster and not an animal! However, Haitian Blue is indeed able to shake it and lift its feet off the ground!
"Hoo ......"
With a rancid wind, the rosary zombie who was pulled by Hai Tianlan in place and turned around a few times was thrown out by him.
When the rosary zombie was opening its mouth and wanted to bite Hai Tianlan, its body had already smashed into the body of the man-eating flower behind.
The cannibal flower's tentacle-like vines quickly entangled the rosary zombie that smashed it, and the cannibal who didn't know whether it was alive or dead suddenly pulled the rosary zombie to its side, and the huge flower bud shook violently, and the tentacle-like vines also shrank at the same time, just in the blink of an eye, the trace of the rosary zombie had been lost in place!
"Bang ......"
With a bang, the cannibal flower that had just swallowed the rosary zombie was burst by the powerful prey! After the slime-clad rosary zombie landed, it waved its claws as sharp as weapons and equipment with a strange scream, and the cannibal flower that was not yet dead was immediately torn to pieces by it!
All this happened in a very short period of time, and at this time, Hai Tianlan had already run away, and had already checked a crack in the cliff wall that did not exist in Zhaoyang Crab.
Each of the Zhaoyang crabs is about the size of a gold coin, and their chelae are long and short, the long one is relatively thick, and the short one is relatively small. Their favorite thing to do is to use the thicker chela to make a move against the sun when they are basking in the sun, hence the name Zhaoyang crab.
People say that Zhaoyang crabs like sunshine and do that, and this explanation is also correct, but very few people have a deeper understanding of Zhaoyang crab's behavior like Jiang Cheng.
Why are so many evil things afraid of sunlight? For example, the skeletons in the orc tombs, the zombies in the ruins of the mines, and the abyssal monsters in the Valley of Death! The reason why these monsters are afraid of sunlight is because there is "Holy Spirit Energy" in the sunlight, and this energy is the nemesis of most monsters!
There are very few people who know such a standardized name as "Divine Energy", but there are many people who know that this kind of energy is powerful. For example, the skill "Holy Word Technique", which can be cultivated by magicians at the thirty-second level, is the magic that belongs to the "divine energy"! This is the reason why it can be extremely lethal to skeleton-based monsters and summoned monsters!
In Jiang Cheng's view, the reason why Zhaoyang crabs want to attract the sun is that this creature absorbs the "sacred energy", which is an indispensable thing in their lives!
Moreover, if there is a pure "divine energy" appearing, the Zhaoyang Crab will show a kind of madness, a kind of madness like a moth to a fire, which is why he feels that he will win the sea and the sky!
Compared to Hai Tianlan, who needed to dodge monsters while running, Jiang Cheng was much more efficient! He directly ignored the vines of the man-eating flower, and the claws of the rosary zombie were not like ordinary magicians, trying to waste some time safely and not being attacked as much as possible.
The reason why Jiang Cheng is so different from ordinary people is that he has a layer of protection from a faint light curtain.
The light curtain is very similar to the skill "Magic Shield" that can be cultivated by magicians at the thirty-first level, but its appearance color is different from that of "Magic Shield". "Magic Shield" is a transparent yellow, and the light curtain on Jiang Cheng's body feels like clear water is rippling, if it weren't for the visual difference similar to "ripples", the faint light curtain is not easy to be discovered.
