Chapter 67: Lucky Mid-Year Training (9)
"Jixiang, are you really not going to do the random tasks? There are extra points!" Jiang Ke looked at the task card stuck in the gap of the tree trunk behind him with regret. The metallic red color flickered in the sunlight.
"Yes, Jixiang, wouldn't it be a bit too little if we only get the basic points..." Zhuang Han looked at Jixiang's back and couldn't help but agreed hesitantly.
"No more. We have to enter the glacier tomorrow morning." Jixiang said firmly without looking back, "You two should hurry up. We won't take a break at noon. Each of you will get a bottle of nutrient solution."
"Jixiang, aren't you rushing this? I think we still have time..." Jiang Ke said unwillingly. The first five tasks were completed smoothly, and the next task would probably not be difficult either...
"The mission is the most uncontrollable. You can't guarantee that the next mission will be completed, nor can you guarantee that the mission will be as easy as the previous one." Jixiang couldn't help but frown, but his voice was very calm. After a pause, he continued: "Comparatively speaking, if you can reach the end earlier, the possibility of a high score is greater."
"...Yes, Jiang Ke, what Jixiang said is very right." Zhuang Han, a fence-sitter, looked as if he had suddenly realized something when he heard it, and immediately turned to Jixiang.
Jiang Ke couldn't help but secretly glared at Zhuang Han and said, "...but, we..."
Jixiang finally stopped and looked at the mountains in the distance.
"We can do it, and you can do it too, isn't it? Jiang Ke." Jixiang turned around and looked at Jiang Ke calmly.
Jiang Ke avoided Jixiang's sight in a somewhat embarrassed manner, pursed her lips, and said, "I'm sorry, I..." Maybe not...
"You can do it, Jiang Ke, adjust your breathing." Jixiang interrupted. She was just a heartless puffer and a mindless compliment machine. She couldn't comfort him, not at all...
As expected, tyrants are better off being simple and rough. Jixiang secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the two people following behind him trying to adjust their breathing and pace.
I don't know why, but she still cares a lot, very much...
Under Jixiang's pressure, Jiang Ke and Zhuang Han finally arrived at the check-in point after nightfall.
Most of the ground here is very flat and the area is very large. When the three of them came over, many students were preparing to rest here.
There were also some people from the same class, including acquaintances of Jiang Ke and Zhuang Han. The two greeted Jixiang, who politely declined the invitation to stay together. They agreed to meet at the nearby second departure point at five o'clock the next morning, and then they left.
Jixiang watched the two people leave, then picked a location on the edge of the student camp, set up the tent and left.
There are teachers and border guards here, so they can relax a little.
A thread of mental power was wrapped around Jixiang's little finger, and she disguised her mental power aura as the breath of a flying insect.
This was an accident that occurred accidentally when she and Old Man Ji were practicing mental power in the wild. After careful research and simulation by her and Old Man Ji, they were able to simulate the mental power into the mental aura and fluctuations of various flying insects and other creatures, which was very useful in the wild.
Jixiang trembled his little finger. This mental camouflage technique was very useful in such a crowded place.
Jixiang raised the corner of her mouth slightly and smiled silently. She, Jixiang, is just so awesome!
...Well, the awesome Dajixiang is now squatting on a big tree, trying hard to weaken his breath and reduce his presence, with an expression that is seven parts awkward and three parts wretched.
The man and woman under the tree were performing an interstellar campus love drama. Jixiang was squatting alone on the tree and was forced to show off three big bowls of dog food.
"...Xiao Ai! I only like you. I have to take care of that girl a little more just because we are in the same group!"
"Ah Zhen, I, I'm not blaming you. I also know that there's nothing between you and her. I, I'm just scared..."
"Xiao Ai, I..."
"I'm just afraid that you'll fall in love with someone better. I know I shouldn't think this way, but I just can't help being afraid, and... I can't help being jealous..."
"Xiao Ai..."
"I'm sorry, I don't know what's wrong with me, but I can't help it, I, I'm sorry, oooo..."
"Xiao Ai, you are not wrong, you..."
"..."
Jixiang looked at the sky with a look of despair, wishing he could roar at the moon three times and let her go! She was wrong!
Every time she watches pure love anime, she can't help but curl her lips and wish she could stand shoulder to shoulder with the sun, but the reality of the bloody drama really makes her stomach hurt! It's so embarrassing that she can't even get a 2756 college on her toes...
She came here to quietly check out the situation in the mountains, not to watch some melodrama!
Jixiang grabbed the tree trunk and angrily crushed the trace of mental power on his fingertips, leaving five fingerprints on the tree trunk.
"Who?" The man and woman under the tree suddenly looked up in panic when they heard the sound.
A small black animal was seen digging at the trunk fearlessly, then baring its sharp teeth at the two men.
"Ah, it turned out to be a little beast. I was scared to death." The girl patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief.
"That's just a small animal. Little brother, is this your first time joining a forest border patrol?" At this time, the border guards who were patrolling on the other side also encountered a small animal running around at night.
The young soldier who was participating in the forest border patrol for the first time laughed dryly and said a little embarrassedly: "You can see that this is indeed my first time..."
"...Ah, that's normal. Animals in the forest are like that, running around. You'll get used to it." The middle-aged soldier with the rough voice waved his hand indifferently, indicating that the young soldier didn't need to worry about it.
"Captain, is this okay? There's a glacier over there. As I remember, this little beast lives in the forest." The young soldier hesitated and couldn't help but look back at the place where the little beast disappeared.
The glacier at night is like a silent ice and snow monster...
"It's okay. If something happens, the monitoring devices placed in the forest will sound an alarm. And there are too many such cases. It is impossible to check them one by one..."
The two men continued patrolling in the night while talking quietly.
Jixiang watched the young couple finally leave from under the tree and disappear into the night.
Then the grinning little beast disappeared, and the human-shaped night scene behind the beast shattered like glass and disappeared. As the two disappeared, Jixiang, who was leaning against the tree trunk, gradually revealed his figure.
Her great disguise skills can be summed up in two words: awesome plus!
Jixiang, who was finally able to move her hands and feet freely, raised her hand but couldn't help wrinkling her nose. Was the strange smell she smelled at that time an illusion?
Jixiang hesitated for a moment, but still quietly released his mental power and began to feel the complex changes in the air.
It seemed like it was really her illusion.
Looking at the border guards appearing in the distance, Jixiang couldn't help but knock her head. Only then did she realize that this was not just an outdoor adventure for her and Old Man Ji.
Jixiang shook his head after thinking it through, and quietly slipped down the tree trunk. He would go to the glacier area tomorrow morning, so he had to rest well tonight...
