Chapter 517: Task Maniac
Hearing this, Shi Mu raised his eyes and looked over, slightly startled, and said:
"So it's Junior Sister Ma, long time no see."
This woman is none other than Ma Long.
The woman looked at Shi Mu with a pair of eyes, and a slight blush appeared on her cheeks.
"Junior Sister Ma, do you know each other?" Seeing Ma Long's expression, Hou Tong frowned, but then relaxed it and smiled.
"Well, Senior Brother Shi and I met during the entrance trial." Ma Long said.
"Haha, since we are all acquaintances, that's even better. Brother Shi, how about it, join us." Hou Tong laughed.
"Senior brother Shi, our team has just accepted a mission to hunt down the Wupeng Vulture King. As long as it is completed, there will be a reward of ten mysterious spirit points. There is still one person left. After the mission is completed, the reward will be shared equally among us." Ma Long also said. Looking at Shi Mu expectantly.
"Thank you for your kindness, but Shi is used to acting alone, so I'm sorry." Shi Mu cupped his hands slightly, turned and walked towards the blue stone wall.
Ma Long was fine, although Hou Tong was smiling all over his face, but there was a trace of cunning in his eyes, and he probably had bad intentions in recruiting him into the group, so he naturally didn't take a good look at him.
Although Ma Long was a little disappointed, he didn't say much, and Hou Tong's expression turned ugly.
"I don't know what's good or bad. It's been less than ten years since I entered the Qinglan Holy Land, and I want to do the task alone. It's an act of courting death!" Behind Hou Tong, a young man with a horse face snorted coldly, and said sarcastically.
This person's voice was not low, and the people around heard it, and they all looked at Shi Mu immediately.
Shi Mu didn't pay attention to the surrounding situation at all, and took out the Xuanling Bi with his hands, and waved it at the blue stone wall.
Immediately a ray of light flew down and submerged into his Xuanling Bi.
A line of small characters appeared on the Xuanling Bi: "Kill twenty earth-level fire demon wolves, get their demon pills and horns, and pay five Xuanling points, and then hunt four more, get one more Xuanling point!"
On the other side of the Xuanlingbi, many small characters emerged, recording the fire demon wolf's activity area in a huge volcanic community in the west of Qinglan Star, as well as its living characteristics and so on.
Shi Mu took a few glances, then put away the Xuanling Bi, turned around and walked out of Wanfa Pavilion, without even looking at Hou Tong and others standing aside.
On the contrary, Cai'er on his shoulder gave them a contemptuous look, and shook her butt at them.
"Who is this person? The mission to hunt down the fire demon wolf has been out for several days. Although the reward seems to be generous, it is too dangerous to go alone, and it is not worthwhile to go with many people."
"That's right! The fire demon wolf is a rare high-ranking social monster, and it has to go deep into the Sunset Volcano area. Some high-ranking disciples dare not go alone to pick it up."
"I don't know, but from what Hou Tong said just now, it seems that he is a newcomer who has just joined. He is really a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers!"
"Hmph, what a young and fearless boy, he's just an ignorant and arrogant kid!"
Some hundred-year-old disciples nearby pointed at Shi Mu's back, most of them spoke with sarcasm, and looked gloating.
Behind the long stone table on the side, a long-browed deacon was also startled. He glanced at Shi Mu's back, but quickly closed his eyes again.
Seven or eight days later, beside the Sunset Volcanic Complex in the west of Qinglan Star, a figure in green robe flew from a distance, with a pair of huge wings of fire spread out from behind, it was Shi Mu.
"It's spectacular!" Cai'er stood on Shi Mu's shoulder and shouted.
In the huge volcanic complex in front of you, misty gray-red mist is everywhere. From time to time, thick lava erupts from the crater, splashing and scattering towards the surroundings, making loud rumbling noises, which is more spectacular than the 100,000 volcanic area in Blue Starfish .
"We didn't come here to enjoy the scenery. Hurry up and find those fire demon wolves, so I can go back to work." Shi Mu flapped his fire wings and flew straight into the volcanic area.
"Shitou, don't worry, leave it to me. I haven't been idle at home for the past few years, and now my field of vision has doubled compared to before!" Cai'er said confidently.
Shi Mu's eyes lit up when he heard the words, and a happy look appeared on his face.
"Well, I'll speed up a little bit, and I'll leave the investigation to you." He said, and the red light on his body lit up, and his speed suddenly increased a lot.
Half a day later, a gorge several miles long in the volcanic area.
A black light shot up into the sky, and the temperature within a radius of tens of miles suddenly dropped sharply. A layer of hoarfrost even condensed on the ground near the canyon, and little snowflakes appeared in midair.
The entire canyon was covered by white ice, and the deeper it went, the thicker the ice was. At the bottom of the canyon, a few feet of ice appeared on the ground, and half of the bodies of a dozen huge red demon wolves were frozen and imprisoned by the ice. .
These monster wolves were covered in red, with a one-foot-long curved horn growing on their foreheads.
Red flames burst out from the part of the wolf's body that wasn't frozen, trying to break through the ice and get out, but the white ice was so hard that it wouldn't budge despite the impact of the flames.
In mid-air not far away, the black light on Shi Mu's right arm slowly dissipated, he opened his mouth, a golden light flashed, and the money sword flew out, turning into a golden sword rainbow several feet long, and shot towards the dozens of demon wolves below. go.
The golden sword rainbow flashed in succession, and more than a dozen demon wolves were decapitated, and blood swarmed out.
"Shitou, you have become much stronger. This ice freezing technique is so powerful. What kind of secret technique is this?" Cai'er said in surprise.
"Oh, this is the most yin power of the second turn of the Nine Turns Mysterious Art." Shi Mu said.
"This exercise is really good!" Cai'er nodded repeatedly, her face full of joy.
While speaking, Shi Mu flew down to the bottom of the valley, and with a gesture of his hands, he took out the demon pills of the dozen or so wolves below, and cut off those horns at the same time.
This was already the second wave of fire demon wolves he had hunted, and the mission requirements had been exceeded.
With a flash of his figure, he shot out from inside without stopping at all, and fled towards the outside of the volcano area.
Although the ice layer in the canyon was hard, it was quickly engulfed by the surrounding monstrous heat, and the ice layer slowly melted. After half an hour, the canyon returned to its original appearance.
A few days later, Shi Mu's figure reappeared in Wanfa Pavilion.
He hurried on his way with a dusty look on his face.
"Hey, it's the rookie who took the task of the Fire Demon Wolf, who came back so soon."
"Hmph, looking at his disheveled face, he must have suffered a lot and came back to change tasks."
"It's considered that this person's life is great. He didn't die in the sunset volcano community and became the food of those fire demon wolves."
There happened to be some hundred-year-old disciples in Wanfa Pavilion who were present that day, and when they saw Shi Mu appearing, they all uttered sarcasm.
Among the crowd, that Hou Tong was also there, and at this moment he also sneered at the loudest voice, but he did not see Ma Long.
Shi Mu ignored these people and went straight to the long stone table in the main hall.
"I'm Shi Mu, here to hand in the task." He said lightly, took out the Xuanling Bi and put it on the table.
At the same time, with a wave of his hand, a red light flashed on the table, and a fiery red demon pill and a curved unicorn appeared.
The deacon behind the stone table in front of him was the old man with long eyebrows. When he saw the demon pill and one horn on the table, he showed a look of astonishment on his face, but he quickly covered it up.
"These are indeed the demon pills and unicorns of the Fire Demon Wolf. There are twenty-eight pairs in total. The basic reward is five Mystic Spirit Points, plus two extra rewards, a total of seven Mysterious Spirit Points!" Then he settled the task for Shi Mu.
In the hall, those people with mocking faces froze instantly when they heard the words, and stood there like wooden stakes one by one.
Hou Tong, like everyone else, was stunned for a while, and he took a few breaths before he realized that his face was flushed, as if he had been slapped severely.
At this moment, the others also reacted, whispering in low voices, and glanced at Shi Mu from time to time, without the sarcasm just now.
Shi Mu cupped his hands to the long-browed old man, turned around and came to the blue stone wall, the surrounding Qinglan disciples saw him approaching, and silently moved out of the way.
Cai'er stood on Shi Mu's shoulder, her face full of complacency.
Shi Mu walked to the stone wall expressionlessly, looked at it for a few times, then waved the Xuanling Bi again, a ray of light flew down from the stone wall and flew into the Xuanling Bi.
After accepting the task, he didn't stop at all, turned around and walked outside Wanfa Pavilion, and quickly disappeared.
"This person actually completed the task of the Fire Demon Wolf, and it was still overfulfilled. It only took less than ten days. If I remember correctly, even the fastest route, going back and forth to Sunset Volcano will take seven or eight days, right?"
"When did this powerful person appear among the newcomers?"
"It's hard to say, who knows if this person completed this task independently, maybe he has helpers from other families."
"Let's see what task he took this time."
"Huh? It's the task of picking white ice flowers. This task is not small. It has to go deep into the ice cave more than a hundred meters underground in Biluo Snow Mountain. The environment there is harsh, and most of the ice attribute monsters can use ice escape. .I heard that not long ago, three old disciples teamed up to do this mission and failed."
In the Wanfa Pavilion, all the disciples of Qinglan were talking about it.
That Hou Tong's expression was uncertain, and he wanted to sneer at Shi Mu to the people around him, but he opened his mouth and swallowed the words back.
Ten days later, a blue figure reappeared in Wanfa Pavilion, it was Shi Mu.
At this time, the story of overfulfilling the Fire Demon Wolf's mission alone had gradually spread among the century-old disciples who often came to Wanfa Pavilion in Qinglan Holy Land. Someone in the hall suddenly recognized Shi Mu, and there was a burst of whispering.
Some people who didn't know why asked the other people around for a while, then they understood, and they all looked at Shi Mu one after another.
Shi Mu still ignored the surrounding situation at all, walked to the long stone table, and waved his hand, there were twenty or thirty palm-sized white flowers on the table, giving off a chill.
"I'm Shi Mu, here to hand in the task." He said, took out the Xuanling Bi, and handed it to an elder deacon behind the stone table.
Wow!
Suddenly, there was a burst of exclamation in the hall. (To be continued.)
