Chapter 60 - The Conspiracy at Northwind Mountain
Chapter 60: The Conspiracy at Northwind Mountain
Hai Yue was wearing a tight-fitting combat suit, which showed off her 1.7-meter height and curvaceous figure.
Her skin was creamy, her eyes were watery, and she was a peerless beauty. Her beauty was so captivating that one would never forget after one look! No wonder she had provoked a group of men to confess their love in public.
“I’m Lu Benwei,” Lu Benwei replied lightly.
Hai Yue’s beautiful eyes shifted to Lu Benwei and said, “You’re Lu Benwei, a freshman at Zhejiang Hunter University.
Lu Benwei nodded slightly.
“Miss Hai Yue, is there anything I can help you with?”
“You’re just a magician, yet you’re able to achieve 100 kills in a simulated battle. That’s impressive,” Hai Yue suddenly said.
Lu Benwei was not surprised that Hai Yue knew some of his information.
“Miss Hai Yue, are you also a student of Zhejiang Hunter University?” Lu Benwei asked.
“No.” Hai Yue shook her head.
“Every time a team is formed, every team leader will receive some information about the other team leaders.”
After a pause, she continued, “Let’s cut to the chase. Our team is lacking a supporter. Are you interested?”
Everyone was stunned by her words.
Hai Yue had extended an olive branch to Lu Benwei. One had to know that Hai Yue was the goddess in their hearts. She was also very powerful.
Many people dreamed of joining Hai Yue’s team and now they were envious of Lu Benwei.
However, they all knew that Lu Benwei also had the strength to join Hai Yue’s team. Everyone’s eyes turned to Lu Benwei and stared at him with envious eyes.
“Thank you for your invitation, Miss Hai Yue. You know that I have a team now,” Lu Benwei said lightly.
Hearing this, Hai Yue smiled charmingly.
“It’s a team, but it’s impossible for you to run it by yourself. Why don’t you join my team?”
“Miss Hai Yue, thank you for your invitation, but what I do is my own business.” Lu Benwei’s eyes narrowed as he interrupted Hai Yue.
Hai Yue was stunned for a moment before she let out a long sigh. Her proud chest heaved up and down with her long breath.
“Since that’s the case, I won’t force you. I hope you’ll be lucky in Northwind Mountain.”
After saying that, Hai Yue turned around and left.
Lu Benwei turned around and found that Chu Yan was looking at him with resentment. “What’s with that look?”
“Miss Hai Yue…” Chu Yan said softly, “She’s never been so considerate when she calls me. Are you going to leave me behind and join their team after tonight?”
Lu Benwei did not know whether to laugh or cry. “This is basic courtesy. Besides, why didn’t I just agree to her request?”
After listening to Lu Benwei’s explanation, Chu Yan finally gave up. After that, the two of them went to the hotel in the base to rest.
The next day, Lu Benwei and Chu Yan entered Northwind Mountain together.
Northwind Mountain was a place with high mountains and steep peaks. The sea environment was cruel, and the mountainside was covered in snow all year round. It was named so because of the biting cold northern wind that blew all year round.
After leaving the Citadel, the temperature dropped below freezing.
Both of them were wearing thick battle uniforms. Even so, it still made the two of them shiver at the same time.
“Annoying fellow, where’s our target?” Chu Yan’s ears and cheeks were red from the cold.
Lu Benwei looked ahead and pointed. “Let’s head to the main peak of Northwind Mountain. We’ll take one step at a time.”
His goal was simple, and that was to level up his experience points. Having no goal was the best goal.
The two of them walked side by side for less than an hour before they encountered the first wave of monsters.
Eye of Insight activated!
The information about the monster was instantly transferred into Lu Benwei’s brain.
[Wasteland Wolf x10]
[Level: 19]
[Alpha Wolf: Wasteland Wind Wolf]
[Level: 20]
[The most common monster at the foot of Northwind Mountain. Although it is at the bottom of the monster population in Northwind Mountain, it lives in packs. A pack of 10 Wasteland Wolves is comparable to a level-30 monster!]
[Wasteland Wolves usually attack with their fangs and claws, while Wasteland Wind Wolves attack with wind elements.]
The eyes of this pack of wolves glowed with a strange green light. Their fangs were exposed, and thick liquid flowed out.
When ordinary people saw a pack of wolves in the wilderness, they would have long fled.
Lu Benwei and Chu Yan’s eyes lit up.
“Woohoo, I can finally fight! As long as I fight, my body will heat up,” Chu Yan said excitedly.
As soon as she finished speaking, Lu Benwei’s blood boiled. In the next second, his body was like a cannonball, blasting out.
In the air, Lu Benwei changed into the Viper Set and Mad Demon +10 was triggered! Health points above 50 percent, and strength increased by 300 percent.
A wasteland wolf let out a strange howl and pounced forward. Lu Benwei’s fist landed on its front paw.
The tyrannical righteous force instantly gushed out, circulating the front claws of the wasteland wolf and spreading to its entire body.
“Pfft!”
On the spot, the wasteland wolf turned into a bloody pulp. Blood splattered everywhere, some even landing on Chu Yan’s face.
Chu Yan was slightly shocked. A level-19 monster was killed with one punch. What a terrifying physical strength!
After taking a deep breath, Chu Yan used magic to kill two wolves.
Then, there was another loud noise. The Wasteland Wind Wolf had been torn to pieces by Lu Benwei. The other wolves also could not escape from Lu Benwei’s hands.
Chu Yan was once again surprised by Lu Benwei’s strength.
Just based on physical strength alone, even mosnters of a higher level could not compete with it.
With skills, even the new Hunter Special Combat Class students would not be Lu Benwei’s opponent.
The previous expert only took advantage of Lu Benwei’s energy deficiency after the battle with her.
“Annoying fellow, you’re getting more and more interesting,” Chu Yan muttered to herself behind Lu Benwei.
After that, the two of them continued to hunt and accumulate experience.
Lu Benwei leveled up three times in a day.
…
Northwind Mountain, main peak.
Steep cliffs, rugged roads, criss-crossing cliffs, yellow cranes flying over, and monkeys climbing over.
The environment was so harsh that even monsters rarely set foot in it.
A rock sheep-type monster that had entered by mistake was looking for food in the cracks.
Suddenly, a violent wind started to blow. The northern wind whistled, like a knife cutting its skin.
After the wind stopped, the air temperature began to drop rapidly again. Every breath it took felt like it was inhaling ice.
Then, snow and ice erupted, thunder rumbled, and snow the size of goose feathers swirled.
The sky rumbled, and a huge bird-type monster descended from the sky, gliding around the main peak. When it spread its wings, it could even cover the sky.
Then, it transformed into a handsome man and entered a cave on the main peak.
“Sorry for the long wait, everyone. It’s time to settle the score with the humans!”
