The built-in filtration system of the mask activates, and your breath suddenly becomes fresher.
Then there's Anti-Venom and Detector Swarm.
There is a button on the metal disc.
After pressing, the disc unfolds, revealing twelve mechanical bees the size of fingernails.
Xu Wuyi Put them into the storage compartment on the side of the combat uniform.
Ready.
He glanced at the time.
10:47 p. m.
"Anna, plan the best route for me, target Putrid Swamp Woodland."
"Planning... The route has been generated. It is recommended that you start from "Swift Wind Outpost" on the east side of the college and take a military hover vehicle to the outskirts of Putrid Swamp Woodland. The estimated journey is two hours. The hover vehicle has been reserved for you. Departure time?"
"Now."
Xu Wuyi lifted Long Spear and walked towards the door.
The villa door slid open silently.
Outside, fine snow is flying.
He stepped into the snow and quickly disappeared into the night.
The night is as dark as ink.
The military hover vehicle was speeding at a low altitude of five meters above the ground, its engine making a low hum, cutting through the silent snowfield.
The headlights illuminated the fluttering snowflakes ahead, and on both sides were the dead woods and tundra flying backwards.
Xu Wuyi was sitting in the back row, closing his eyes and relaxing.
The combat uniform has turned on the constant temperature mode, isolating Yan Han from the outside world.
Meteor Iron Long Spear lay across his lap, the gun body was cold, but he could feel the golden and red meaning contained in it that had not been dissipated.
The two-hour trip is just the right time to adjust.
He repeatedly deduced Rotten Wood Demon's fighting style and his own response strategy in his mind.
The core is to quickly locate, break the defense, and then end with [Undying Flame].
But in actual operation, there are many variables.
"Mr. Xu, we are about to arrive at the "Putrid Swamp Woodland" peripheral warning station."
The voice of Smart Brain in the car interrupted his thoughts.
Xu Wuyi Open your eyes.
Through the front window, I could see a thick shadow creeping on the ground on the distant horizon.
Even from such a distance, you can still feel the damp and decaying atmosphere.
The hover car began to slow down and finally stopped in front of a simple outpost.
The outpost occupies a small area and is surrounded by a barbed energy fence, with a searchlight at the top scanning back and forth.
There were a few dim lights on the main part of the building, making it look particularly lonely in the snowy sky.
The door slides open.
The cold wind carried the snow particles and poured them into the car, which was also mixed with a faint smell of decay.
Xu Wuyi lifted Long Spear and got off the suspension car.
As soon as my feet landed, the door of the outpost opened.
Two figures walked out one after the other.
Walking in front was a man in his early thirties, of medium build, wearing a gray-green combat uniform, with an alloy sword hanging on his waist.
There was obvious fatigue on his face, but his eyes were still sharp.
The one behind is a younger-looking woman with short hair and delicate features. She is also wearing a combat uniform and carries a folding compound crossbow on her back.
Her expression became more nervous, and she paused obviously when her eyes swept over Xu Wuyi.
"Xu Wuyi's classmate of Star Martial University?" The man stepped forward and stretched out his right hand, "I am the martial artist stationed at the No. 3 alert station of "Putrid Swamp Woodland", Li Feng. This is my partner, Han Qingqing."
"Xu Wuyi." Xu Wuyi Simple handshake.
Li Feng's palms are rough and covered with calluses. They are obviously hands that have been holding knives all year round.
The energy level fluctuation is around level 31, while Han Qingqing is slightly weaker, around level 30.
"I received a notice from the academy that a martial artist will come to take over the FT-0093 mission alone." Li Feng said, his eyes falling on Long Spear in Xu Wuyi's hand.
"I just didn't expect... you to be so young."
There was no contempt in his tone, but more concern.
Han Qingqing couldn't help but say, "Student Xu, Rotten Wood Demon's energy level is assessed at level 36 to 37, and this is its home field, and the environment is complex. Are you really okay if you are alone...?"
Her words were very direct, but she did mean well.
Most of Federation's garrison martial artists have retired from the front line, or are Martial Artist who have limited talents and choose stable jobs.
They have seen too many young geniuses perished in the wilderness because of their arrogance.
As for this goal, the two of them can't help much, and they can only rely on Xu Wuyi to solve it by himself.
Xu Wuyi glanced at her and said calmly, "The mission requirements are that it is recommended to be level 35 or above, or to master fire and thunder attack methods. If I can receive the mission, I meet the conditions."
Li Feng and Han Qingqing looked at each other.
Suggestions are suggestions, but when it comes to actual implementation, which mission to defeat the high-energy level Star Beast is not done by forming a team?
If a person accepts it alone, he or she is extremely confident, or an ignorant person is fearless.
But what Xu Wuyi said is correct. Star Martial University didn't just put the tasks out so that any student could take them, but they were screened.
It's just that this screening is not done after accepting the task, but before accepting it.
To put it simply, if you don't have enough strength, you won't even be able to see this mission.
Maybe, he is really powerful.
"Okay." Li Feng said no more, "You have accepted the mission. We are only responsible for providing intelligence and necessary guidance."
"But the ugly words are ahead. After entering Putrid Swamp Woodland, and after finding Rotten Wood Demon, follow my instructions to avoid unnecessary complications."
"Okay." Xu Wuyi nodded.
This is reasonable. The garrisoned martial artists are most familiar with the local environment, and blind confidence will only increase risks.
"Come in, it's cold outside." Li Feng turned around and walked towards the outpost, "I'll tell you the latest situation."
The inside of the outpost is simpler than it looks from the outside.
There is an alloy table, a few chairs, and a monitoring screen covered with snowflakes on the wall, showing pictures of several fixed observation points around Putrid Swamp Woodland.
There are some supply boxes and repair tools piled in the corner.
Li Feng poured three cups of hot tea from the thermos pot and pushed it to the table.
"Rotten Wood Demon was discovered in the middle of last month." He clicked on the projector on the table and brought up a blurry forest image. "At first, some collection team members were missing. We thought it was an ordinary Star Beast attack."
"Later, a reconnaissance drone was sent in, and the footage returned showed that the vegetation activity in the core area of the forest was abnormal, and high-intensity life energy fluctuations were detected."
The image switched, and a twisted and ferocious giant tree appeared, Tree Trunk covered with knob-like protrusions.
"This is the body of Rotten Wood Demon, at least the form we have photographed so far." Li Feng pointed at the image.
"But it is not stationary. Rotten Wood Demon's Root System can quickly extend underground, allowing it to shift positions within a diameter of two kilometers."
"And it is very cunning and will actively avoid our fixed monitoring points."
Han Qingqing added, "We tried positioning and suppressing it three times, but every time we arrived, it had already moved. The last time, it set up an ambush, and we lost a drone and two automatic turrets."
