C3 You're asking for it, and I'm asking for something.
Mount Mang was only three hundred miles away from Chen Qiang and the others' settlement. In less than half a day, the exploration team arrived at the foot of the mountain.
For half a day, Chen Qiang silently walked behind the team, carefully thinking about the various data and functions of the corpse and organic energy recycling system.
After all, this system was the only life-saving magical equipment that he could rely on to survive in this place. How could he not thoroughly study it?
After some research, Chen Qiang found that only his right hand could trigger the system, and the system only worked on corpses!
Other than that, the system's Recovery Values would only react when it was larger than 1. As for obtaining energy values, he could only rely on Beast Crystals.
As for the system's data regarding constitutions, mentality, strengths, and speeds, they could be adjusted as he pleased. This was a very practical point for him.
For example, if he did not deliberately increase the data regarding speed, it would be very difficult for him to keep up with the exploration team's speed.
"Everyone, pay attention. After entering the mountain, look for the herbs according to the pattern Doctor Lee gave you. After finding them, give them to Chen Qiang and let him keep them.
" In addition, there are dangers everywhere in Mount Mang. We shouldn't be too far away from each other, so we should take care of each other.
Doctor Lee and Chen Qiang have never cultivated before. After entering the mountain, we must ensure their safety."
As soon as Captain Qi's voice faded, more than a dozen Bloodline Warrior spread out in different directions, protecting Doctor Lee and Chen Qiang.
However, after careful observation, Chen Qiang found that almost all the directions where Bloodline Warrior was located were the best to protect Doctor Lee.
As for himself, it seemed that he could only pray for himself.
In fact, he could understand this situation. After all, in the settlement, the staff of the infirmary had a higher status than Bloodline Warrior.
As for the corpse collecting team, it was the department that no one paid attention to.
Doctor Lee was two years older than Chen Qiang. He was eighteen years old and looked very thin.
Chen Qiang walked to his side and asked in a low voice, "Doctor Lee, I don't seem to have the picture of the herbs you are looking for."
Doctor Lee deliberately kept a distance from Chen Qiang and said impatiently, "You are a member of the corpse collecting team. Do you know how to look at the map? I asked you to come here this time because I want you to be responsible for physical labor. You only need to take care of the herbs you found. You don't need to worry about anything else."
Chen Qiang heard him and frowned. He did not speak anymore.
In the entire Human Race settlement in Mount Mang, the corpse collecting team he was in was probably the most unpopular.
Not only was he a lowly worker, but he also emitted the stench of corpses all day long. No wonder Doctor Lee was so far away from him.
However, this was also good. He could use his free time to study his Poison Flame bloodline.
To become Bloodline Warrior, awakening bloodlines was the most basic requirement.
However, in a real battle, just having bloodlines was not enough. He still needed to learn the cultivation method, which was to cultivate Blood Qi in his body, and then control Blood Qi to attack his enemies.
Unfortunately, no one else knew about his bloodline levels, so he was unable to obtain the cultivation method.
However, Chen Qiang was not in a hurry.
Since the Mount Mang was filled with danger, he definitely had a chance to witness Bloodline Warrior's battle. At that time, he would be able to observe the use of the Blood Qi from Bloodline Warrior's battle.
However, their luck seemed to be pretty good this time. It was almost dusk. They did not see any danger approaching.
Perhaps it was because they were only active in the outer region of Mount Mang. In almost three hours, the exploration team's mission was basically completed. The bag Chen Qiang was carrying was also gradually bulging.
"Doctor Lee, these herbs should be enough, right?"
Seeing that the mission was about to be completed, Captain Qi was in a good mood. After all, not every time they went out, everyone in the exploration team could safely return to the settlement.
But this time, they did it. They did not encounter any danger, and their luck was pretty good.
"Yes, Captain Qi, the herbs we collected this time should be enough for the settlement to use for half a month. We can go back now."
The warriors of the exploration team were overjoyed. They immediately surrounded Doctor Lee and Chen Qiang and rushed out of Mount Mang.
"Wait a minute."
Doctor Lee suddenly stopped after he had just walked two steps. He moved his nose.
"Captain Qi, do you smell it?" he asked.
The others also stopped and sniffed like Doctor Lee for a while.
"I think so. There is a fragrance... Over there!"
Captain Qi pointed to the west and asked, "Doctor Lee, do you want to go and take a look?"
"Yes, I have to go!"
Doctor Lee looked excited. "If I'm not wrong, it should be the smell of Purple Fragrance Fruits.
Do you guys know?
Purple Fragrance Fruits are the most important ingredients to refine the Spirit Blood Pill.
A spirit blood pill had an extremely high chance of helping a high rank Bloodline Warrior to advance to the Spiritual Blood Warrior!
As long as we can obtain Purple Fragrance Fruits and return to let my master refine a Spirit Blood Pill, our commander might become a Elementary Battle General of Spiritual Blood . "This is a great thing for our Mount Mang Colony!"
"Then what are we waiting for? Let's go!"
Captain Qi led the group carefully to the west.
After walking less than a mile, they finally saw a fruit tree with six or seven Purple Fragrance Fruits growing in the valley ahead.
The Purple Fragrance Fruits emitted a rich and intoxicating sweet fragrance.
"Look!"
Doctor Lee pointed at the tree excitedly, but Captain Qi, who was beside him, covered his mouth. His body was also lowered.
"Don't talk!"
Captain Qi made a gesture at the corner of his mouth and let go of Doctor Lee.
"It was dangerous just now.
Doctor Lee, under the fruit tree, there was a Lightning Rabbit guarding it.
If I'm not wrong, that's a intermediate rank soldier rank Strange Beast, equivalent to our intermediate rank Bloodline Warrior's combat strength!"
When Doctor Lee heard this, cold sweat seeped out of his forehead.
"Then what do we do? Captain Qi, can you think of a way? There are six or seven Purple Fragrance Fruits!
They are very important to Mount Mang Colony.
"There are so many people here. Could it be that we are unable to defeat that rabbit?"
Captain Qi shook his head with a bitter smile. "Doctor Lee, there's something you may not know.
Although the Lightning Rabbit's defense isn't strong, the thunder ball it spat out is undoubtedly fatal to us low-level Bloodline Warrior.
If we must obtain those Purple Fragrance Fruits, then... Now there's only one thing we can do, That is to find someone and lead the Lightning Rabbits in the opposite direction. Then, we will suddenly take action and steal those Purple Fragrance Fruits.
"However, in this way, I'm afraid that the warrior who lured the Lightning Rabbits will never come back alive."
"Captain, I'll go!"
"Captain, I want to go!"
For a moment, more than a dozen warriors from the exploration team rushed to apply. This changed Chen Qiang's impression of these young Bloodline Warrior.
This was not a good thing. Going out meant death!
However, none of these young men were willing to retreat. They chose to give their hope of survival to their companions.
No wonder Bloodline Warrior was able to obtain the highest respect from everyone in the Human Race settlement.
"No! None of you are allowed to go!"
The one who said this was not Captain Qi, but Doctor Lee.
Captain Qi, your exploration team's mission this time is to protect me from collecting the herbs that the settlement needs.
" We don't have enough manpower to begin with. " If something happens to us midway, it doesn't matter if we die. But the two thousand people in the settlement are going to face an even more difficult situation.
Moreover, our Bloodline Warrior has suffered too many losses recently, so we can't make unnecessary sacrifices anymore.
Even if we want to go, we need to find someone who isn't very valuable to take the risk. "
After saying that, Doctor Lee threw his gaze at Chen Qiang.
"Me?"
Chen Qiang pointed at his nose with a dumbfounded expression.
Did Doctor Lee have a grudge with him?
Clearly, Doctor Lee wanted him to die!
"No! Bloodline Warrior's duty was to protect the safety of the Human Race in the settlement. Chen Qiang doesn't have any cultivation bases at all. If he does this mission, he will definitely die. I will never agree to it!"
Captain Qi rejected decisively.
The other team members also nodded in agreement.
"Captain Qi, don't forget that you are the ones who will cooperate with me in this operation!
You don't have the right to make a decision.
Moreover, Chen Qiang had only gone out to attract the attention of the Lightning Rabbit. He did not need to fight with the Lightning Rabbit. As long as he completed the mission, he could think of a way to withdraw.
That's my decision. There is no need for everyone to discuss this matter anymore! "
Doctor Lee's tone did not allow any doubt. He looked at Chen Qiang again. "Chen Qiang, I know this is unfair to you.
"But for the survival of the Human Race, we have to make the necessary sacrifices at any time.
If you really want to complain about this decision, you can hate me."
Captain Qi and the other Bloodline Warrior clenched their fists. However, they could not refute Doctor Lee's opinion.
After all, they had to listen to Doctor Lee's arrangements for this operation.
Chen Qiang saw everyone's reaction. It seemed like he could no longer refuse this mission.
Before he left the settlement last night, Elder Sunn had told him what could happen. It was also because of this that people like him who did missions with the exploration team were seen as having no chance of survival.
Looking at the huge Lightning Rabbit sitting under the tree in the distant valley, Chen Qiang's legs unconsciously trembled.
It was impossible for him not to be afraid of death!
However, he was somewhat unwilling to die in this way.
"Captain Qi, I think what Doctor Lee said makes sense. I'm the only one here who is most suitable to lure that rabbit.
" However, can I make a small request before I die? "
Captain Qi raised his head and looked at the frowning Chen Qiang. He said with pity, "Chen Qiang, tell me your request. As long as I can do it, everyone in the exploration team will do it for you."
"I may not be able to come back this time, but as long as there is a chance, I still want to take a gamble.
How about this, Captain Qi, do you have any extra Beast Crystals in your hands to give me a few? Also, it's best to give me a knife to protect myself."
"No problem. I still have three Beast Crystals on me. I'll give them all to you. "Also, this dagger has been with me for many years. It's very sharp. I'll give it to you to protect yourself."
As he spoke, Captain Qi pulled out a one-foot-long short knife that he carried with him and pinned it to Chen Qiang's waist.
"I have a Beast Crystal here for you."
"And me, I also have two Beast Crystals."
All of the Bloodline Warrior gave their Beast Crystals to Chen Qiang.
Captain Qi looked at Doctor Lee again.
"You don't really think you can survive, do you? "I really don't understand. You are about to die. Why do you need so many Beast Crystals?"
Doctor Lee complained in dissatisfaction. He took out two Beast Crystals from his bag and threw them to Chen Qiang.
"I'm a greedy person. Even if I die, I will die with the Beast Crystals in my arms. This way, I will feel comfortable."
Chen Qiang smiled and kept the twenty-three Beast Crystals.
At the same time, the Beast Crystals immediately turned into 230 energy values and appeared on the System Panels.
"Chen Qiang, move carefully to the south. When you reach a certain distance, look at my hand gestures. You should move when I ask you to.
"When the time comes, we'll take the opportunity to steal those Purple Fragrance Fruits.
" You must remember!
Although the defensive power of the Lightning Rabbits is not strong, the movement of the speed is not slow. Moreover, the most important thing is to guard against the lightning it spits out! "
Although he knew that Chen Qiang would inevitably die, Captain Qi still described the characteristics of the Lightning Rabbit in detail.
Chen Qiang took Captain Qi's words seriously and then carefully moved to a slightly higher place in the south.
