“Ding! The amplification system is activated. The host’s speed of absorbing spirit Qi today has increased by a factor of 150, and the increase in bone structure and comprehension has increased by a factor of 15.”
Another week had passed.
This meant that Jiang Chen had not seen Kesha for a full seven days.
There were still 16 days left until the college entrance exam.
“Hello, your delivery has arrived.”
After finishing his morning training, the items that Jiang Chen had ordered from the illusory space had arrived.
This was a three-star defensive suit that could effectively defend against the attacks of mid level fierce beasts.
Jiang Chen had spent a full five hundred thousand on this defensive suit!
If it were not for his crazy gambling battles over the past week, he really would not have been able to take out this five hundred thousand.
However, these five hundred thousand had also emptied out his entire fortune.
He was now left with less than fifty thousand star dollars.
In the illusory space, Jiang Chen had already accumulated 80 consecutive victories!
He was still 20 consecutive victories away from obtaining a hundred consecutive victories.
However, Jiang Chen did not pay much attention to these things for the time being.
He was leaving the city today!
In these seven days, Jiang Chen’s cultivation had taken another step forward, reaching the eighth level of body tempering.
His strength had also naturally taken a qualitative leap.
His body’s basic strength had reached 2,600 jin.
As such, Jiang Chen was prepared to see blood.
That was why he had bought a set of defensive clothing in the illusory space, in order to leave the city and hunt ferocious beasts!
Although he could fight others and even simulated fierce beasts in the illusory space, this was not what Jiang Chen wanted.
This was because he knew that he would not die in the illusory space, so he had no scruples in his heart.
However, it was different in reality.
You only had one life.
The slightest carelessness could cause you to be devoured by fierce beasts.
Jiang Chen did not wish to be a vase that could only show off in the illusory space, and whose legs would go soft when he encountered fierce beasts in reality.
After putting on his defensive clothing, Jiang Chen arrived at the city gates of Tianhai City and took a shuttle bus to the outskirts of the city.
There were countless shuttle buses heading out of the city every day at the city gates, and there were also shuttle buses returning from the outskirts.
These were the sources of livelihood for those adventurers.
The so-called adventurers risked their lives to head to the desolate mountains thousands of miles away from Tianhai City to hunt and kill the beasts.
Then, they would bring back the flesh and blood of fierce beasts and sell them at the Adventurer’s Union to earn star dollars.
The Adventurer’s Union would sell the flesh and blood to the major hotels and great clans.
The shuttle bus in this world was extremely fast, reaching over a thousand kilometers per hour.
Therefore, after Jiang Chen boarded the shuttle bus and traveled for three hours, he finally arrived at the outskirts of the desolate mountain range.
The desolate mountain range spanned hundreds of thousands of kilometers from east to west, and was one of the three great gathering places of fierce beasts in this world.
Fortunately, Jiang Chen was not heading to the center of the desolate mountain range, but to the periphery.
Here, there were basically a few one-star or even two-star fierce beasts!
One-star fierce beasts were not scary, and two-star fierce beasts were the main enemies of these adventurers.
This was because two-star fierce beasts were equivalent to the body tempering realm of humans!
After Jiang Chen got off the bus, he immediately began to carefully observe his surroundings.
In the wild, one not only had to worry about the threat from fierce beasts, but also had to worry about the danger from humans.
There were always some sinister people who wanted to take something for nothing and steal the fruits of other people’s labor.
They even did not hesitate to kill people and steal treasures.
Jiang Chen was not afraid of the threat from the fierce beasts. His defensive clothing was truly used to defend against sneak attacks from humans!
How could a thousand years of development not have some powerful weapons?
For example, the laser gun!
An expensive laser gun could be comparable to a trainee or even an elite practitioner when shot out by a single laser.
Of course, that kind of laser gun was also extremely expensive. Without tens of millions or billions of star dollars, there was no need to even think about it.
Even a laser gun that was comparable to a first level Spirit Condensation Realm would cost 500,000 star dollars.
Therefore, in the wild, generally speaking, it could only be comparable to a full-strength attack of a level 9 or level 10 apprentice.
This was because the price of these laser guns was not too high, and could be bought for about 100,000 star dollars.
A few people could still afford it.
…
Jiang Chen carried a small backpack as he slowly walked through the outskirts of the desolate mountain range.
The backpack was filled with compressed food of high energy.
Even though it was just a small backpack, the things inside were enough to replenish Jiang Chen’s energy for seven days.
Suddenly, Jiang Chen’s ears twitched as he walked forward.
Then, with a flash, he arrived next to a large tree.
Not long after, a black wolf with a completely dark and savage face walked out.
“This is… the Dark Night Wolf, a two star high level beast, comparable to a human at the eighth level of the Trainee Mage Realm. Its strength has reached an astonishing 800 jin.”
Seeing this black wolf walk out, information about it immediately appeared in front of Jiang Chen’s eyes.
Of course, Jiang Chen had not seen through it himself. It was the intelligence chip stored in his mind that had told him about it.
The intelligence chip was another type of research result of the human race.
As long as an intelligence chip was implanted, the other’s information would automatically be displayed when they encountered a fierce beast.
There were even some of the beast’s weaknesses and strengths that were listed out.
This naturally avoided the fate of many people being killed when they first encountered a dire beast they did not know or understand.
The smart chip could be said to have included 99.999% of the information about ferocious beasts.
As for the remaining 0.001% , that belonged to the supreme existence of ferocious beasts. It was not something that could be encountered.
Even if one encountered it, it would be useless even if one knew. This was because, other than experts of the same level, if anyone else encountered it, they would almost certainly die.
Every star of a dire beast was divided into beginner, intermediate, advanced, and peak!
You would just be a two-star dire beast in the beginning stages which was comparable to a human apprentice between the first and third levels.
A two-star intermediate stage was comparable to a human apprentice between the fourth and sixth levels.
A two-star advanced stage would be comparable to a human apprentice between the seventh and ninth levels.
The peak stage was an apprentice of the tenth stage, a three-star, a four-star, and so on!
This Dark Night Wolf that had appeared in front of Jiang Chen was a two-star advanced stage dire beast, comparable to an apprentice of the eighth level!
“Awoo…”
The Dark Night Wolf that had been taking a stroll after dinner suddenly stopped in its tracks, its nose continuously sniffing.
Soon, a pair of green eyes stared at the place where Jiang Chen was hiding.
“Oh no, I forgot that the wolf’s sense of smell is very acute.
“But, it’s a good thing that it’s only a two-star high level vicious beast. With my strength, it won’t be difficult to deal with it!”
Jiang Chen was startled and felt that his foolish actions of hiding were laughable.
