Chapter 33 Accumulation of Experience

Zhang Feng moved quickly with the longsword in his hand, he saw an opening, and seized the opportunity to approach the man’s throat. With a light pull, dark red blood splashed out.

System: “Trial mission complete.”

After staying in the trial space for an unknown period of time, the numb Zhang Feng finally returned to his beloved shop.

“I really miss you guys.” Zhang Feng hugged the counter in front of him and was almost moved to tears.

System: “The Braveheart battle mark has been issued. The Braveheart skill has been completely mastered. It has been loaded into the shop owner.”

Martial Arts Proficiency: This means that you can use various weapons and martial arts moves skillfully. You can cause higher damage and have a chance to cause various serious injuries to the enemy.

System: “Shopkeeper Set Weapon: Elemental Ball has been issued. Please check it.”

Zhang Feng, who was hugging the counter, immediately felt an energy circulating in his body, constantly tempering his body. His level was also constantly increasing under the baptism of this energy.

At level 30, this increase stopped. A golden ball the size of a sandbag appeared on the counter.

“Is this the elemental ball?” Zhang Feng grabbed the silver-white metal ball in his hand. With the help of his martial arts skills, he quickly figured out how to use the elemental ball.

Next, he had to go to the Cloud Mist Forest to collect materials.

Zhang Feng looked at the Cloud Mist Forest outside Zhiyue City again.

“Let’s take advantage of tonight and gather the materials before it affects business tomorrow.”

Zhang Feng could not help but feel a little excited.

Although he did not know how long he had been in the trial space and how many times he had died in exchange for this power.

“Let those demon beasts taste my anger.”

System: “Quest item: Material Synthesizer (one-time use) has been issued. Manager, please check.”

The Cloud Mist Forest at night was even more dangerous than during the day. Those demon beasts were much more aggressive at night than in the daytime.

“Start a fire and camp on the spot. Team One and Team Two will take turns to keep watch. Pay attention to the sneak attack of the demon beasts.” Fei Ma[1] delegated the tasks.

The Pegasus team immediately began to move. It was common for veteran soldiers to camp out in the wilderness. After all, long-distance escort missions often involved spending the night outside.

A bonfire was built, the warm flame chasing away the darkness of the night.

Fei Ma found a random place and sat beside the bonfire. Then, a bald burly man walked over and placed the big sword by the fire. He sat on the ground and said, “Big Brother, Team Ye Lan seems to have accepted this mission.”

“It’s normal for Team Ye Lan to accept the mission. If Team Ye Lan obtains the Guardian Points for this mission, they would be the number one team in Zhiyue City,” the bald man said slowly to the bonfire.

“The Mighty Tyrant Guardian Corps was the first to enter the Cloud Mist Forest. They were the ones who brought back the news of the high-level demon beasts. Unfortunately, the members of their team also suffered heavy losses. As for the other Guardian Soldiers, we don’t have to worry so much.”

As Fei Ma spoke, he placed a few branches into the fire. The flames tested the moisture on the branches, and white smoke immediately rose.

The bald burly man looked at the smoke, then tapped his fingers and said, “Big Brother, I heard that the teams ranked at the bottom of the Guardian Soldier Guild seem to have temporarily joined forces to formed a temporary team, with Xiong Ba, of the Mighty Tyrant Guardian Corps, temporarily taking command.”

“Since when did Xiong Ba have such capabilities? Just based on the fact that his Guardian Corps suffered heavy losses, did they have that many people previously?” Fei Ma sneered disdainfully.

The Mighty Tyrant Guardian Corps, Pegasus Team, and Ye Lan Team were the three strongest Guardian Corps in Zhiyue City.

Among them, Ye Lan’s team was the weakest among the three Guardian Corps. They also had the least number of people. However, each and everyone of them was the strongest in terms of abilities, among the top three Guardian Corps

The Pegasus Team had a lot more people, but they were mainly individual elites. As for the Mighty Tyrant Guardian Corps, it was purely based on the combined strength of their soldiers.

Therefore, Fei Ma accepted Ye Lan’s team, but he looked down on the Mighty Tyrant Team.

“Alright, we still have to continue exploring the depths of the Cloud Mist Forest tomorrow. Rest well tonight.” Fei Ma waved his hand to stop the bald man from continuing to speak.

“Then you should rest early too, Big Brother. We cannot be without you for tomorrow’s mission.” The bald man nodded, grabbed the big sword beside him, and walked into the tent that had just been built.

Fei Ma chewed on a piece of hay, and stared fixedly at the bonfire.

Previously, in order to hunt a Warrior-level demon beast, the Mighty Tyrant Guardian Corps had accidentally entered the depths of the Cloud Mist Forest. However, they had accidentally encountered a high-level demon beast.

Here, it had to be mentioned that the advancement of a demon beast did not require a trial space. Instead, it was more like a rebirth.

Apart from some demon beasts with powerful bloodlines and some gifted demon beasts, demon beasts usually would not obtain skills after leveling up. As compensation, when demon beasts advanced, all their attributes would increase. In terms of physical strength, demon beasts would always have the advantage.

Therefore, although high-level demon beasts were only one level higher than Warrior-level demon beasts, the difference in attributes this time was definitely not something that could be made up for by more manpower.

Moreover, the combat power of Mighty Tyrant Guardian Corps was uneven to begin with. After losing a large number of their members, Xiong Ba brought those who were slightly stronger back to Zhiyue City and provided this information to the Guardian Soldier Guild.

At the same time, it also alarmed the mayor of Zhiyue City and the other two Guardian Corps of the top three Guardian Corps.

However, because of the abnormal movements of the demon beasts this time, the Guardian Soldiers sent by the Guardian Guild were too high in points, making the other weak Guardian Soldiers a little envious.

It was precisely because of this reason that Xiong Ba had seized the opportunity to recruit and join forces with these soldiers, using his reputation.

And this huge joint defense regiment had also entered the Cloud Forest.

However, they deliberately fell behind Team Pegasus and Team Ye Lan.

One of the leaders of the corps stood beside the bonfire and said in confusion, “Brother Xiong, after we’ve fallen behind so much, I’m afraid we won’t even get our turn to complete the mission?”
