Buzz.

After opening the silent barrier of the control altar, another elderly scholar holding a spiritual resonance card came over.

"Master."

Reilo bowed his head and saluted, feeling quite gloomy, still immersed in the mood of Peng Bai who controlled Metal War Weapon.

The other party made a sound in surprise.

"Can the enlightened students accumulate B-level meritorious service? Are all the little guys this good now?"

"Well, it's just good luck."

Reilo shook his head.

Relying on the mission of investigating the death of Black Rock Mountain and the mission of protecting the balloon airship route, Reilo obtained 200 military merits. These two tasks did involve a lot of luck.

"Controlling a war puppet, especially when it is significantly different from its own level, will cause huge damage to Mental Power and make it difficult to concentrate for a long time. It is recommended that you apply to the fortress staff the next time you perform a mission."

After the old man finished speaking, he sat on the control altar where Reilo had just finished and turned on the silent barrier.

The severe headache seemed to be a symptom of Mental Power's excessive consumption, just like the fatigue after staying up late to study continuously. Reilo suddenly felt a chill in his heart.

This task is not as simple as it seems.

"Hello, are you Mr. Reilo·Gubo?"

An attendant came over and asked Reilo who was leaving the control altar.

"I am."

Reilo frowned and looked at the other person in confusion. This was a young man in the same grade as himself. His face was a bit immature. He was quite similar to the Gran Academy when he first started school more than half a year ago, looking forward to studying.

"This is your letter."

It wasn't until the other party took out a letter that Reilo suddenly realized it and took the envelope casually.

This is the reply from instructor Gubo.

In the assault-level control altar area, the female magician consultant from before came over.

"Controlling war weapons will have a certain impact on Mental Power. You will get 7 days of rest. If the war is still there after 7 days, you can continue to apply for the war weapons mission, or you can apply to the consultant office for a replacement mission."

"Got it, Master."

The female magician consultant nodded, then continued her inspection and left.

Within the silent barrier of each altar, there is a scholar with closed eyes, focusing on controlling war weapons. From time to time, someone opens the silent barrier with an annoyed look and leaves the altar.

Angelina, Bai Xing, Orn, and Yulia were still within the silent barrier of the altar. Reilo found Xiao Kang among the crowd at the window of High Tower.

The furnace High Tower is protected by several layers of Energy Shield and is in a fully enclosed state.

And because the underground space was raised to the surface during the war, standing in front of the protective window on the 30th floor of the furnace High Tower, I could already look past the towering fortress walls and see some conditions on the distant battlefield.

"Summoned another one."

Reilo noticed that in the center of the battlefield, those Xilan scholars once again summoned a rock of astonishing size from the cracks in the earth. Stone Giant

Stone Giant is climbing up from the crack with difficulty.

The Grand Soldierss around were like a group of small ants, and their attacks kept falling on this behemoth. The strength of this rock Stone Giant was obviously worse than the previous thunder monster.

Xiao Kang seems to be concerned about something different from Reilo.

"This is the real big deal! Look at the Stone Giant, how many Official-class war puppets have been crushed in such a short period of time. How many golden coins will the principality need to spend in the next year to replenish them? If we can make a deal with the military, even the profit of just one leg hair will be more than the money I have worked hard to earn in my Magic Props store in a lifetime."

The sun sets in the west.

This little fat man with naturally curly hair looked at Reilo with tears in his eyes.

"Why am I so poor! Wuwuwu! Wuwuwu..."

Reilo has black lines on his forehead.

This bastard is actually crying in front of him?

Do you want me, who needs to borrow a wand, to comfort someone who has opened a Magic Props store?

"I have a severe headache. I need to go back and take a rest. Let me tell them when Bai Xing, Angelina, Orn, and Yulia come out."

"Okay."

Saying goodbye to Xiao Kang, Reilo left the intelligence office on the 30th floor and came to the ground floor cabin assigned to High Tower.

Can't wait to open Gubo's reply.

"The biological specimens you sent, several college instructors and I carefully screened them and confirmed that they are indeed brand-new species that have never been collected and recorded by the college."

"According to the naming rules, I named it Furnace Mountains Ogre Spider."

"I am very pleased that you can make such an outstanding contribution to the college."

"In view of your outstanding contribution in collecting brand new biological specimens for the college, and the specimen itself has reached the level 1 biological level, after careful consideration by the college, we have decided to award you Elite Rank 275 points."

"As for the Human-faced Spider biological specimen information you mentioned, after discussing it with my instructor Liuyan, it was decided that I would personally go to the Furnace Mountains to try to collect it in a few days."

Arrived at the fortress two days ago.

Add the delivery time...

In other words, instructor Gubo will come to the fortress in the next few days?

"275 Elite Rank points! I originally had 152 points, which nearly doubled in an instant! If I were to follow the Elite Rank points in the third quarter, this result would have already reached the top thirty! Maybe, I can tell my mentor about Prince Ling and ask him to take me out of the fortress?"

Generally speaking.

The Elite Rank points for level 0 biological specimens are within 1~10 points.

If it is a small number of rare mutant species, the value will be increased by 2 to 3 times. If it is a brand-new species that has never been collected by the academy, the value will be increased by 5 to 10 times!

The points for level 1 Magical Beast specimens usually range from 30 to 100 points.

A small number of rare mutant species will increase by 2 to 3 times, and the value of brand-new species will increase by 5 to 10 times.

And so on.

Level 2 Magical Beast is the limit of specimen collection intensity for school students. At least a few third-year elite students can try to collect specimens in large-scale teams.

Points are generally between 300 and 1,000 points.

It is precisely for this reason that Reilo once saw a Thunder Sigh wand in the Elite Rank form, which required 30,000 Elite Rank points to redeem, and thought it was impossible.

As for the mature man-eating spider specimen sent, it was awarded 275 Elite Rank points from the college, which is quite reasonable.

According to Reilo's estimate, if a mature Human-faced Spider specimen can be captured, even if it is only a level 1 Magical Beast, the points will be at least 500!

But it's a pity.

This is an impossible task for Reilo at this stage.

It was at that time that he realized the great value of the Human-faced Spider specimen. During the escape from the cave, Reilo stopped and collected the adult man-eating spider specimen. After returning to Furnace Fortress for dissection and research, he immediately sent it back to the Grand Natural Sciences Academy.

Night falls.

The fighting outside Furnace Fortress seemed to have temporarily come to an end as the night fell and gradually quieted down, and Xilan People gradually began to retreat.

In the laboratory, Reilo's breathing was somewhat rapid.

Under the Crystal Lamp light, the many gains brought by Reilo from the Moon's Mark space node are placed on the experimental table.

A piece of 75-year-old psychic wood.

A bottle of Temple of Wisdom Repair Serum.

Two Ghostfire Worm specimens were carefully soaked in antiseptic bottles.

Several mutant plant specimens collected in the Howling Banshee forest.

A small piece of flesh and blood skin from Adamant Demon Elephant's legacy, and a small amount of special lens that fell off.

Wrath Bead after the death of 5 Howling Banshee.

Two corpses.

Reilo put away the half-human, half-pig corpse for the time being, but looked at it Space Box, which was eroded by mysterious power.

"You should be able to get the contents inside..."

Reilo's eyes flickered, he murmured to himself, and suddenly used force to force open the Space Box, which was corroded by mysterious power.

Space Box instantly turned into a piece of rotten wood and lost its spatial effectiveness.

There was a loud crash, and a pile of crushed powder leaked out of the mold.

"Damn it!"

Reilo The corner of his mouth twitched, and it took him a while to calm down.

Then Reilo looked at Ice Crystal Eye Prince Ling.

Prince Ling died by beheading himself.

His facial features are deep and have the typical three-dimensional facial features of Xilan People, which makes him look more temperamental and charming. What caught Reilo's attention was the vertical pupil eye on his forehead.

"This is Ice Crystal Eye of Prince Ling? I don't know what kind of creature it got this weird talent from."

Regarding Ice Crystal Eye's power of Heart Cold Entering Body, Reilo has already understood how terrifying it is, but what makes Reilo pay more attention is the faint eroding cursed silver light surrounding Ice Crystal Eye.

It was probably the curse of these silver lights that caused Prince Ling to be in a state of energy backlash after activating Ice Crystal Eye once.

Besides that.

Prince Ling's right arm was also eroded by this layer of pale silver light spots, and a large amount of flesh and blood and body activity were lost, like an old man in his seventies or eighties, with withered skin and osteoporosis.

According to Reilo's estimation, Prince Ling's physical strength during his lifetime should have reached the low-level Apprentice Fighter level.

Although it is slightly worse than my own situation, this kind of physical condition is really not easy for a Natural Law scholar.

Unfortunately, as a Natural Law scholar, Prince Ling, like most Natural Law scholars, does not pay too much attention to the power brought by personal physical evolution, and only uses it as an auxiliary means to more effectively exert his own Natural Law power.

"This withered arm seems to be nourished by some kind of water energy, so it has not completely lost its vitality?"

With a look of deep thought, Reilo slowly took off the coat of the headless corpse.

The magic robe and necklace were both eroded by the pale silver energy, and just like the Magic Props on the half-human, half-pig corpse, they lost their magic effectiveness.

Take off the Magic Props from the headless corpse one by one.

After confirming that nothing was missing, some antiseptic measures were taken on Prince Ling's body, and then Reilo put his clothes back on one by one and put them into Space Box's body.
