In most cases, facing such a supernatural creature is not an easy task.But if one encounters a Spirit type, that's a different story.
"Meow, meow! (◣_◢)" (Stare at me, you little brat!)
Receiving the instruction, Qiuqiu raised its head high, and the Frost Snow pattern in its vertical pupils suddenly ignited with an icy blue flame, its deep pupils slowly narrowed, as if the abyss reflected in its eyes was slowly swallowing the giant beast.
The Trampling Rock Rhinoceros, angered by Qiuqiu's words, reared its small eyes blocked by its brow bone as it lowered its head to charge, glaring fiercely back at Qiuqiu, filled with rage.
The next second, the Trampling Rock Rhinoceros knelt down.
"Boom!"
With a softening of the limbs, this beast, capable of knocking over thousands of troops, flew several meters due to the momentum of its charge and landed heavily, then collapsed on the ground, weakly convulsing.
Its pitch-black pupils were dull and lifeless, and blood continuously flowed from its eyes, slowly trickling down along the knife-and-spear-resistant hard armor on its cheek edges, its mouth trembling continuously, and its pained breathing gradually grew weaker.
"Aren't you just asking for it?" Lin Su shook his head as he looked at the dismal state of the Trampling Rock Rhinoceros, sighing softly.
The biggest problem with this species is its low IQ and weak spiritual power, so they are completely defenseless against Spirit attacks.
He had been walking in the direction he had chosen for a few minutes now, and he still hadn't discovered the second pass-through jade, but instead, this big fellow had come along.
Lin Su swore he hadn't veered off course even by a step, it was all on its own fault for stumbling upon him.
"Go and deliver the final blow," Lin Su shook his head, and Qiuqiu, responding to his voice, leaped lightly from his head, cautiously approaching the Trampling Rock Rhinoceros that lay collapsed on the ground, convulsing in pain, until it got close. The Trampling Rock Rhinoceros didn't react at all, which eased Qiuqiu's mind.
Its paws shimmered with an icy blue light, gently pressing on the eye area of the Trampling Rock Rhinoceros. An extreme chill erupted instantly, penetrating through the eyes to reach the already severely injured brain of the Trampling Rock Rhinoceros, ending its unfortunate life.
Another 200 points were in hand.
…
"Beautiful!"
Watching through the screen as Qiuqiu neatly dealt with the Trampling Rock Rhinoceros, Mr. Li couldn't help but exclaim, "That must be the skill called Cold Frost Dream Domain from Frost Flower Dream Shadow, right?"
Naturally equipped with a pet manual and energy scanning device on the artificial supernatural intelligence system, with Mr. Li's operation, the scan results of Qiuqiu soon appeared on the screen.
"This energy level is no ordinary one." Mr. Li exclaimed, his thoughts of encouraging Lin Su to shift to combat intensified.
But that was just wishful thinking; with Lin Su's high talent in research, the research sector surely wouldn't let him go.
"Why aren't you talking?" After muttering to herself, she turned her gaze towards Qin Nan, who was holding her chin and being silent, piquing her curiosity.
"I was thinking..." Qin Nan's expression suddenly turned odd, "What was that skill Qiuqiu used at the end?"
Just half an hour ago, Lin Su's application for a new research project was approved. His new research project was not an evolution study of some creature but a previously unexplored teaching skills research.
Qin Nan had just noticed this and was planning to find Lin Su to ask about it, but she had searched the entire institute and couldn't find Lin Su anywhere.
Then she remembered that Lin Su was still in the combat assessment today, likely already at the assessment site.
Realizing this, Qin Nan suddenly became interested and decided, having nothing better to do, to head to the assessment monitoring room to see how Lin Su was doing in his combat assessment.
She hadn't expected to gain such an extra insight.
"Oh, you mean that skill." Ms. Li's face lit up with realization, "That Frost Flower Dream Shadow just used it once, that must be Ice Trace Claw, right?"
"Ice Trace Claw…" Qin Nan's expression turned a bit odd, "Stop kidding."
"But it seems there's only one close-range skill for ice types, right?" Ms. Li responded, her face displaying a mix of confusion and uncertainty, "Looking at that action, it's obviously a close-range skill, isn't it?" Find your next read on mvl
"It might be a new ice-related teaching skill." Qin Nan muttered under his breath, but he had already made up his mind.
That Lin Su!
Previously Lin Su had secretly had Qiuqiu evolve before applying for the evolution research on Xue Henqing; now saying that Lin Su had developed an ice-related teaching skill before applying for a teaching skills research project, she found it not at all strange.
"A new ice-related teaching skill?" Ms. Li's eyes lit up, "Really? This guy is good at researching teaching skills too?"
"Who knows." Qin Nan rolled her eyes, moved a chair over, and sat next to Ms. Li.
"What's this?"
"I'm not leaving today, I'll just sit here and see what other surprises that kid can bring me." Qin Nan crossed her legs, glanced at Ms. Li next to her, "Got any coffee?"
"No! This is the assessment monitoring room!"
"Then never mind, water will do."
…
As it turned out, relying on a wait-and-see approach wasn't effective.
After killing the Trampling Rock Rhinoceros, Lin Su sat on its huge exoskeleton for over ten minutes, yet he didn't see another Trampling Rock Rhinoceros come over to seek revenge or anything like that.
It seemed those 200 points really were a fluke.
Jumping down from the Trampling Rock Rhinoceros's body, Lin Su turned his gaze towards Qiuqiu, "Let's go, we should keep moving."
The first phase of the practical assessment lasted a whole six hours. seaʀᴄh thё novёlF~ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
Now, over twenty minutes had passed, and the situation of the other candidates was still unkown.
The 230 points he had accumulated probably weren't much.
It looked like he needed to change his approach in order to earn points more quickly.
Targeting isolated beasts and killing them one by one was simply too slow.
If he could encounter a den of beasts and wipe them out in one swoop, the points he would gain would be significant.
A den of beasts…
Lin Su's eyes brightened.
"Qiuqiu, rise to high altitude, let's see if there's any water source nearby."
Beasts need to eat and drink; generally, places with water sources are more likely to have beasts appear.
No need to wait for them to come to us, let's take the offensive!
