Chapter 70 The Second Test of Luck
Lian Shou's words were like a depth bomb that exploded in everyone's hearts.
In the next test, less than half of the people will be able to stay?
Doesn't this mean that they all have a nearly half chance of being eliminated?
They worked hard to climb to the top of the mountain and could not accept that they would be eliminated like this.
For a moment, there was silence on the top of the mountain. Everyone was desperately absorbing the golden mist and using the power of Jue Bao to restore their energy and physical strength.
Lian Shou looked at the crowd indifferently, tilted his head, and led Cang Wei to a corner away from the students.
Cang Wei frowned, seeming to be still thinking about what just happened.
Ever since he was born, he has been immersed in the stories of his predecessors.
He has been yearning for this sacred profession since he was a child and regards it as his lifelong pursuit.
When he grew up, he joined Longxia Academy as he wished and became a glorious Void Hunter.
Over the years, he has been in and out of countless virtual realms, fought with countless virtual beasts and virtual demons, and was even injured several times while protecting people.
In his eyes, hunters should be just like him, full of a sense of justice, with a supreme sense of morality and responsibility.
He believed in his righteousness and regarded it as an honor.
But Xu Ye's behavior just now made him feel very shocked.
The result was obviously just, but the process of implementing justice was somewhat unacceptable to me.
Lian Shou took out a cigarette from his arms, put it in his mouth, lit it, and said with a faint smile: "Teacher Cang Wei, you probably haven't had much contact with other Void Hunters, right?"
Cang Wei turned around and nodded: "When the Hunter Team was recruiting people, it was difficult for me to match my ability with others, so I have always been a "lone traveler"
There are a hundred hunting teams in the Dragon Kingdom.
But not all hunters will join the hunter team.
Some people with special abilities who find it difficult to cooperate with others will become "loners" and hunt virtual beasts by themselves.
Of course, if you want to become a [Lone Walker], the minimum requirement is a mountain environment.
And there is no need for those above the mountain level to join the Hunting Team.
The existence of the team will restrict their actions and waste manpower.
For example, a being like Ruan Rui usually acts alone. Only when he encounters an extremely dangerous virtual environment can he cooperate with other "loners".
"I think so." Lian Shou blew out a smoke ring and chuckled, "You have never seen other Void Hunters, let alone cooperated with them. No wonder you are so naive."
Although Cang Wei is a teacher, he is only twenty-six years old.
Only two years after he graduated from Longxia College, he relied on his strength and theoretical knowledge to become a teacher at Longxia College.
Therefore, the hunters he came into contact with were all teachers and students of the academy.
"Instructor Lian Shou, what do you want to say?" Cang Wei frowned and looked at Lian Shou in confusion.
"Justice does not have only one form." Lian Shou said with deep meaning, "As hunters, each of us has our own justice."
"But we have reached the same destination through different paths, and we are all fighting to realize the justice in our hearts."
"Of course, we need to stick to the most basic bottom line at all times. If we only rely on results, justice will only become an excuse for selfishness."
"But if you attach too much importance to the process, your judgment will be biased."
"Sometimes, you can't judge a person by his behavior, but you have to see his essence."
"If you think about it carefully, is the nature of that child justice or chaos?"
"Does he have his own bottom line?"
After saying this, he threw the cigarette butt in his hand to the ground and stepped on it twice casually.
"By the way, do you still remember the requirements I told you before?"
"When the time comes, I'll trouble you to prepare the venue for the second test."
Lian Shou turned around and left without looking back.
Cang Wei stood there, silently thinking about Lian Shou's words.
"Essence?"
His mind quickly flashed through what Xu Ye had done during the test.
After a while, the confusion and confusion in his mind finally dissipated, and his frown slowly relaxed.
"I see."
"Is this justice that belongs to him alone..."
…
Twenty minutes flew by.
Almost all students have recovered their physical strength and energy under the influence of [Jie Feng Washing Dust].
They were full of energy and had solemn eyes, all looking at Lian Shou who was returning leisurely from a distance.
They were all extremely anxious about the upcoming second trial, fearing that they would be eliminated.
"Don't be so nervous, just relax." Lian Shou smiled slightly and looked around, "Since you are almost recovered, let me introduce you to the rules of the second trial."
Everyone suddenly became energetic and sat cross-legged, looking at Lian Shou intently, for fear of missing any detail.
"I think the purpose of everyone here wanting to join Longxia Academy is to become a Void Hunter."
Lian Shou looked at everyone and said leisurely, "But you should also know how dangerous it is to become a hunter."
"As a Void Hunter, you not only have to go in and out of various Void Realms, but you also have to resist the attacks of Void Beasts and Void Demons."
"In the face of these dangers, what do you think can greatly increase your probability of survival?"
The crowd in front of them immediately whispered, and everyone thought about the question raised by Lian Shou.
Soon someone answered: "Enough power?"
Lian Shou shook his head lightly.
"Speed? As long as you run fast enough, you can avoid danger!"
Lian Shou still shook his head.
Soon, the students threw out various answers.
"Energy", "Wisdom", "Powerful Juebao"...
Various answers came out, but Lian Shou just shook his head lightly.
A moment later, an extremely cautious voice came from the crowd: "Luck?"
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice, but saw a handsome boy with an extremely vulgar temperament, speaking carefully.
Xu Ye immediately noticed that this was Bai Tao who disappeared immediately after the first test began.
I don't know what means he used, but he was unscathed, as if he had never experienced any battle at all.
"That's right, it's luck!" Lian Shou raised his mouth and spoke loudly after hearing this answer.
"Under the same crisis, not only the strong can survive."
"Many times, the one who survives is often the lucky one!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the mountain under the feet of the crowd began to tremble violently!
The next moment, the entire mountain began to drop inch by inch.
The crowd looked around in panic, not understanding what was happening.
Half a minute later, the mountain that rose from the ground was getting shorter and shorter.
The uneven top of the mountain gradually became flat.
The entire mountain was like a raised piece of paper, slowly being flattened.
The trees that were originally located halfway up the mountain were now all squeezed onto the same plane!
Here, the mountain has turned into a forest!
The forest is about two hundred meters long and wide, very vast, and blocked by countless trees.
The slightly raised stone walls on both sides wrapped the entire forest and turned it into four boundaries.
Lian Shou stood there with his hands behind his back, with an inexplicable smile on his face.
"This is the second test I give you, and it's also a test of your luck."
"Its name is--"
"Ghost Catching People!"
