Why kill the Dragon Armor Beast?
Xiao Xiangtong looked at Shen Heng with incomprehension.
What reason is needed to kill the Calamity Beast?
"If we're just killing the Calamity Beast, killing the Dragon Armor Beast isn't as meaningful. Although you get more points, the risks are too high."
As he spoke, Shen Heng walked to the window and looked up at the light curtain in the sky.
1. Wu Hongxuan, 400 points
2. Xiao Xiangtong, points 320
"If you want to get first place, you should keep killing other Calamity Beast. That way, Wu Hongxuan won't surpass you in points today," Shen Heng said.
"I don't want any points, I just want to kill it." Xiao Xiangtong shook her head.
Shen Heng was slightly taken aback, turned his head to look at the figure sitting in the darkness, and asked:
"Why?"
"Because the Dragon Armor Beast is the strongest Calamity Beast in this simulation, I have to kill it." Xiao Xiangtong looked at Shen Heng seriously.
Shen Heng stared blankly at Xiao Xiangtong, then after a moment, he chuckled softly.
"Just because of that?"
"Just because of that." Xiao Xiangtong nodded, unaware of what Shen Heng was laughing about.
Shen Heng didn't explain. He walked to Xiao Xiangtong's side and extended his right hand.
"In that case, it's a pleasure to cooperate!"
Xiao Xiangtong glanced at Shen Heng, then raised her hand and shook it.
"It's a pleasure doing business with you!"
Just then, a 'cooing' sound rang out.
Shen Heng glanced in the direction the sound came from, then looked at Xiao Xiangtong.
Haven't eaten in a long time?
"I ate a little this morning, and haven't eaten since." Xiao Xiangtong's expression was calm, without the typical embarrassment a girl would feel if her stomach were caught growling.
"But it won't have a big impact. I'll just be a little hungry, not very hungry. Tomorrow's the last day, so it's okay if I don't eat."
Shen Heng nodded, and he unwrapped a piece of the Calamity Beast, about the size of his forearm, from behind him.
To avoid eating unpalatable Calamity Beast, from the first day onwards, every time they killed Calamity Beast, they would cut off a piece of meat from the Calamity Beast that looked decent, so that they wouldn't run out of choices later.
"The meat from Mid Tier 3 Black Sea Deer isn't much, but it should be enough for the two of us," Shen Heng said, holding up the meat in his hand.
The energy provided by the Calamity Beast is far greater than that of ordinary meat.
For Shen Heng, a piece of Tier 3 Calamity Beast the size of his palm would be enough to fill his stomach.
As Xiao Xiangtong was already at Tier 3, although she could eat more, the amount of Calamity Beast the size of her forearm, after deducting a portion the size of her palm, was still enough for her.
Xiao Xiangtong looked at the meat in Shen Heng's hand and swallowed softly.
The two moved to a room without windows, and then Shen Heng a fire and grilled the meat.
After handing the larger portion to Xiao Xiangtong, the two began to eat in silence.
There were no seasonings, but the Black Sea Deer itself tasted quite good.
Somewhere in the city.
The firelight flickered inside the house.
"Hey, do you think Shen Heng succeeded?" Lü Wenrui turned to look at the two of them.
"Was it successful...?" Zhou Xuan looked up at the flickering light and shadow on the ceiling, lost in thought.
"Hey, what are you thinking about?" Lü Wenrui raised his voice.
"Keep your voice down. Shen Heng isn't here. If you speak so loudly, what if you attract the Calamity Beast?" Zhou Xuan snapped out of his daze and scolded in a low voice.
"Hehe... I just hadn't corrected it yet!" Lü Wenrui lowered his voice, chuckled awkwardly, and then continued to ask:
"I just asked you a question, what were you thinking about?"
"I was thinking that maybe I should hire a fortune teller in the future, so that I can solve any problems I encounter with a simple calculation," Zhou Xuan said, revealing his earlier thought.
"Why don't you just invite Taishang Laojun )?" Lü Wenrui said irritably.
"Yes, I've thought about it. I'll try it when I reach level seven, eight, or nine." Zhou Xuan nodded seriously.
Lü Wenrui was speechless. He turned to Fang Ran and asked:
" Fang Ran, do you think Shen Heng succeeded?"
"I don't know, but it will definitely succeed." Fang Ran said the result of his thinking.
"Hmm, you have that much confidence in Shen Heng?"
"After all, he didn't go up and fight Yang Xu directly; he just guided the Calamity Beast over, so there was actually no danger."
"That's true." Lü Wenrui nodded thoughtfully, "But I hope he won't be in any danger out there alone."
"Don't worry about that," Fang Ran said.
Actually, compared to us, Shen Heng is the safest person.
"As long as he pays attention to a few details, he can completely avoid all the Calamity Beast without any problems."
Lü Wenrui and Zhou Xuan nodded thoughtfully.
Fang Ran looked at the two of them and asked:
"By the way, how should we adjust the night watch schedule tonight?"
Time slips away quietly.
In the dark room, a figure sat on the floor, leaning against the wall, head drooping as if asleep.
Fang Ran there was no suitable furniture and no room for a bed, this was the only option.
At one point, Shen Heng slowly opened his eyes.
He didn't wake up naturally or at a set time; he was woken up by noise.
The thunder rumbled in my ears, continuous and relentless.
Shen Heng let out a breath, stood up from the ground, and walked out of the room.
Xiao Xiangtong walked towards them, intending to inform Shen Heng.
"What's wrong?" Shen Heng asked.
"I don't know, the visibility over there is poor, we can only see lightning striking in the distance," Xiao Xiangtong said.
"Let's go to the rooftop and take a look." Shen Heng nodded.
The two changed direction and quickly walked towards the rooftop.
A moment later, Shen Heng stepped onto the ground of the rooftop and continued walking forward.
During this process, he turned slightly and looked into the distance.
Blinding lightning flashed incessantly in the darkness.
One after another, purple lightning bolts struck the ground as if they were free.
These lightning strikes don't hit the same place continuously, but every short interval, a lightning bolt will strike a nearby area.
If we connect these similar places...
It's a circle!
Rings of lightning formed by striking lightning!
Shen Heng and his group were inside one of the minefields.
Shen Heng observed for a while longer, then his gaze fell on the center of the roughly calculated lightning circle.
That's where the Dragon Armor Beast stays.
"Boom--"
Thunder roared.
The outermost high-rise building was obliterated like ashes under the bombardment of purple lightning.
Then came the second building, the third building...
Shen Heng's expression gradually turned serious.
The circle of lightning was slowly closing in.
"What is this?" Xiao Xiangtong also noticed this change.
"It's probably to bring both the Calamity Beast and humans together in one place," Shen Heng said softly.
"Is it to better hone our skills?" Xiao Xiangtong pondered for a moment before asking.
