Chapter 342: Complete the Mission, Do It Thoroughly
There are not many people in the Penglai Sea that Hai Teng considers as opponents.
The old generation is too strong, and the new generation is too weak. After thinking about it, only Xu Hei meets the requirements.
Last time, he fought Xu Hei to a draw, which forced him to re-cultivate San Dan. Now he has successfully cultivated and returned to the middle stage of Yao Dan.
Although his realm has dropped, his strength has increased several times more than before. He has absolute confidence to regain his position.
Of course, he will save the matter of defeating Xu Hei head-on for the year-end competition, not now.
Xu Hei's consciousness spread out and swept across the stone tablets. On each stone tablet, there is a task written, and the difficulty of the task is determined by the color of the stone tablet.
The white stone tablet has the simplest task, and the black is the most difficult. There are also light gray and dark gray in the middle.
Xu Hei only has one day to complete the task, so he naturally has to choose the simple one.
But what makes him speechless is that simple tasks may not take less time.
For example, a white stone tablet requires guarding the alchemy room for three days.
A white stone tablet requires deworming the medicine garden for a week.
There is also a white stone tablet, which requires teaching a group of young beasts to fly, with an indefinite time limit, until they are taught.
What is this?
The task on the white stone tablet is simple, but it is only not life-threatening. As long as there is enough time, it can be completed naturally, which runs counter to Xu Hei's requirements.
Xu Hei had a headache and could only look at other dark stone tablets.
"Clean up invasive species."
"Explore underground mines."
"Purify seawater."
"Interrogate prisoners."
"..."
After Xu Hei simply scanned them, he immediately determined several goals in his mind.
For other sea beasts, extremely difficult tasks are much easier for Xu Hei, and some even only take an incense stick of time.
Xu Hei came to a task stone tablet and pulled it up, which meant that he accepted the task.
"Do you want to do a few more tasks and get them all at once?"
Xu Hei's eyes flickered, and he made up his mind immediately.
Anyway, his strength has been known by the elders, and he can't keep a low profile.
He might as well go all out and complete the tasks to save trouble later.
So, Xu Hei pulled up five task stone tablets at once.
His action immediately attracted the attention of the monsters, and they all looked surprised.
"What is this, accepting five tasks at once?"
"Is he crazy? Isn't he afraid of not being able to complete them and having his contribution points deducted?"
The monsters looked at him as if he was a fool, expressing their incomprehension.
A turtle stared at Xu Hei and shouted, "I remember now, he was the freshman before, and it seems that he was also fought over by the six elders, and finally became a disciple of the old dragon."
"It turned out to be him!"
Many monsters had heard about Xu Hei's worship of Elder Mo, but they didn't pay much attention to it.
Elder Mo had nothing, not to mention no resources, and he couldn't learn anything. Over time, no matter how talented a person is, he would be lost in the crowd.
Monsters with fairy magic and monsters without fairy magic are two different levels.
The gap between Xu Hei and the others will only widen.
After Xu Hei accepted the task, he ignored the strange looks of the crowd and left directly.
"What the hell is he doing?"
Haiteng was puzzled. He accepted so many tasks at once. Did he just give up knowing that he couldn't complete them?
Haiteng wanted to catch up and ask a few questions, but considering his status, he didn't do it.
"Boss, do you want me to follow him and see?"
Haier appeared behind him in time.
"Why are you following him?" Haiteng frowned and said proudly, "I have no interest in that snake. Do your own thing and don't pay attention to others."
Haier showed a strange expression, but still nodded and left.
…………
At full speed, Xu Hei arrived at the first mission target in just one stick of incense.
This is a small island. The mission is to clean up the invasive species on the island, a carnivorous ant, which is slightly weaker than the soul-eating ant, but has a strong reproductive capacity. It hides deep underground and is difficult to eradicate.
There were originally five million red crabs on the island. After the invasion of the ants, the number dropped tenfold, and the harm was extremely serious.
"Disciple Xu Hei, come and carry out the mission!"
Xu Hei simply said to the sky, and then rushed into the island.
He released Jiying, drilled into the ground, and went straight to the queen ant.
The queen ant's cultivation was only at the early stage of the demon pill, but the population was too large. Even if the demon pill was in the late stage, it would be eaten up. However, Jiying just went in and out, and the queen ant was eaten up.
In an instant, all the ants on the island rushed towards Jiying, wanting to kill him.
Xu Hei released the Wandu Baohu, sprayed poison mist, and drilled into the ground. Within a few breaths, hundreds of millions of ants were poisoned to death.
There were more than one queen ant, and Xu Hei used the same trick again and killed the remaining three.
In total, it took only half an hour for Xu Hei to get it done.
At this moment, his task stone tablet flashed with light, and the words "Completed" appeared, and there was an automatic detection function, which was quite strange.
Next, it was the second mission. Xu Hei came to a metal vein under the sea.
This mission was to explore the vein under the sea and draw a map.
Xu Hei also sent Jiying to drill into the hole. It only took half an hour to complete the exploration of a metal vein deep under the sea.
The third mission was to repair the shell of an old turtle.
Xu Hei directly gave the Xu Bai brand bone strengthening pill to restore the old turtle's youthful vitality, and no longer had to worry about the tortoise shell problem.
…………
In total, it only took two hours to complete the task.
"It was a close call!"
Xu Hei let out a long sigh and headed straight for the task island.
When he returned to settle the account, when Xu Hei took out five completed task stone tablets at once, the entire island fell into a brief silence.
Even Elder He, who had always been calm, showed a strange look: "It's only been two hours, and five tasks have been completed. I have never seen it so fast!"
Some of these gray tasks were deliberately done by Penglai Sea to test disciples. The difficulty would not be too high, but he had been guarding for a hundred years, and it was the first time he saw someone complete it so quickly.
Theoretically, only elders in the Nascent Soul stage could be so fast, but no elder would do these low-level tasks.
Elder He smiled helplessly and recorded 300 contribution points on Xu Hei's token.
On average, one gray task costs sixty.
Hei Huang didn't say what contribution points can be used for, and Xu Hei still needs to study it slowly.
During this period, Hai Teng has been coiled at one end of the island, witnessing the whole process of Xu Hei completing the task. The whole snake is like a fool, unable to say a word.
"Boss."
Haier poked his head out and spoke hesitantly.
"Boss!"
Haier spoke again, and Hai Teng was still in a daze.
Xu Hei glanced at the task stele and accepted three tasks again, intending to save more contributions. He knew that some tasks were hard to come by, and if he didn't do it this time, he would miss it next time.
But at this moment, an ice bird blocked him.
"Woo woo woo! Brother Xu, please help me, today is the last day, and I haven't completed my task yet, please!"
This ice bird is petite, with a feather on its head, like a phoenix crown, very beautiful, and eyes like sapphires. No matter what monster looks at it, it will feel a natural beauty, magnificent.
Xu Hei was stunned. Who is this guy?
