Chapter 22:

Chapter 22: Allocation of AuthoritySoon after.

Kuwu, Tao Zi, Chen Mo, and Han Xue each dealt with a black-clothed lackey in front of them.

Prompt: You have earned 1 point of disaster contribution point.

Chen Mo successively gained 2 points of disaster contribution points, feeling very good. When he returns to the world of disaster, this is equivalent to two days' worth of work as a library administrator, enough to buy two regular meals without having to endure the nauseating meals again.

"Huh?"

To their surprise, after Han Xue killed the black-clothed lackey, his body gradually emitted a transparent substance.

"What is this?"

Tao Zi touched the transparent substance but was informed that she did not have the corresponding permissions.

Han Xue, after tentatively touching it, caused the semi-transparent substance to shrink and fall into her hands.

Immediately, she exclaimed in joy, "Skill scroll!"

She had unexpectedly struck it lucky.

Because the probability of a skill scroll bursting out of such low-level creatures was extremely low. In the world of disasters, skill scrolls are generally obtained from bosses, mini-bosses, and elite creatures. While there is a probability of skill scrolls dropping from elite creatures, it is not common, let alone from ordinary creatures.

However, since it was a skill scroll that burst out from the black-clothed lackey, although it was a soul scroll, and its specific attributes could not be known without being identified by the brain chip back in the world of disasters, it is likely the throwing dagger skill that the lackey had just used.

Of course, if Chen Mo was willing to consume the soul stone given to him by instructor Qing Hong, he could also identify it here and learn it through the brain data chip.

But obviously, it wasn't worth it.

Moreover, his relationship with Han Xue wasn't that great, so he wouldn't waste such a valuable opportunity here.

"Should we go and help them?"

Tao Zi, upon seeing Gao Shu and Fei Xiaojiang cooperating with each other to slowly deplete the elite’s health, couldn't help but ask tentatively.

"Let's forget it," Chen Mo said lightly. "Lu Yi over there hasn't made a move, obviously on guard against us, preventing us from seizing the allocation rights."

After Chen Mo's remark, Tao Zi finally noticed the anomaly and showed a puzzled expression.

As for the other two members of the group, Lu Ye had already run towards Du Qingqing's side, attempting to kill the last black-clothed lackey, while Tian Tian was fully controlling one black-clothed lackey, completing Gao Shu's requested task of obtaining information.

"What is allocation rights?"

Compared to Chen Mo's knowledge gained through his identity as a library administrator, Tao Zi obviously lacked understanding in this area and couldn't help but ask in confusion.

Not only Tao Zi but Ku Wu and Han Xue also showed puzzled expressions.

After all, the teaching process in the academy mainly focused on combat skills, and understanding allocation rights after battles required the natural disaster to explore and adapt step by step.

"Let me explain. As long as you participate in dealing damage, all items and points rewards from killing hostile creatures are eligible for natural disasters to obtain. However, if you do not participate like you just couldn't obtain that skill scroll, the brain chip will determine that you do not have the permissions, and that's what allocation rights are."

Pausing for a moment, Chen Mo continued, "In addition, there is also the allocation of points. Half of the points rewards for killing hostile creatures will be evenly distributed to the first to inflict damage and the one who delivers the final kill, while the remaining half will be distributed among participants based on the proportion of damage output."

After Chen Mo explained this in detail, the three suddenly realized.

No wonder Lu Yi did not participate in the battle to kill the elite creature but was instead carefully guarding against everyone else; it turned out they were protecting their allocation rights.

After all, this was an elite creature.

If the drop rate for skill scrolls from ordinary creatures was one in a thousand, then the probability of skill scrolls dropping from elite creatures would increase to one in ten.

As for other items and props, whether in terms of quality or drop rate, they were also much higher.

Understanding this, the few of them would not make trouble for themselves and simply stayed away from the elite black-clothed thug to avoid being watched like thieves by Lu Yi.

"I think he's about done. Lu Yi, be careful in case he tries to escape."

Gao Shu shouted, gesturing with his eyes for Lu Yi to keep a close eye on the others.

"Don't worry," Luyi said confidently. "I'll keep an eye on them."

Tian Tian was currently responsible for extracting information from the black-clothed lackey. She used the opportunity to interrogate him and reminded, "It looks like Fei Xiaojiang is also struggling a bit, you guys better hurry up!"

After Tian Tian's reminder, Gao Shu noticed that Fei Xiaojiang, who had been silently enduring most of the elite lackey's attacks, was now covered in wounds.

Although Fei Xiaojiang had a special physique and the damage reduction effect of his Stagnant energy field skill, under the continuous attacks of this elite creature, the damage he received was still quite heavy. After all, this was a creature with a strength value of over 20 points. The weapon in its hand should also be of white quality, completely different from ordinary black-clothed lackeys.

"I can hold on for a little longer," Fei Xiaojiang gritted his teeth and said.

Just then!

It seemed that due to Lu Ye killing the black-clothed lackey, the elite lackey who was firmly surrounded by Fei Xiaojiang, Gao Shu, and Luyi suddenly let out a piercing roar from deep in its throat.

Immediately, before Fei Xiaojiang, who was closest to him, could react, this already large-bodied elite lackey expanded another circle, its terrifying muscles even tearing apart the suit jacket on the outside, revealing a body that looked like a monster.

"Oh no, he has a shapeshifting combat skill!" Gao Shu shouted, warning Fei Xiaojiang.

Fei Xiaojiang also realized the danger, but he wasn't as fast as Gao Shu. He could only let out a low growl and firmly block in front of him with both hands.

Soon, he felt a terrifying force coming from his arms, as if he were being charged head-on by a rhinoceros.

Fei Xiaojiang's body flew uncontrollably backward. After sliding for seven or eight meters on the beach, he felt like his bones were about to break. When his body finally stopped, he couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood. It seemed that his internal organs had been damaged due to the impact.

This was the D-level combat skill mastered by the elite thug, Savage Charge Level 5.

After the elite thug’s attack, Fei Xiaojiang, who was briefly stunned, was horrified to find that his health had dropped by a terrifying 55 points in an instant, putting him in a weakened state with less than one-tenth of his health remaining.

Upon entering the weakened state, all attributes are halved.

"Quick, get out of the way!"

Before Fei Xiaojiang, who was in a weakened and dazed state, could report the situation to his teammates, he heard Gao Shu's terrified roar.

As he struggled to raise his head to look, he saw that the elite lackey, who had just used Savage Charge, was now holding a grenade-like projectile and throwing it towards them.

Faced with this grenade, Lu Yi and Gao Shu, who were rushing over to his rescue were suddenly shocked and could only warn him aloud before quickly moving out of the blast range of the grenade.

However, Fei Xiaojiang, who was in a weakened and dazed state, had no ability to dodge.

He couldn't help but force a bitter smile as he glanced in the direction of Lu Ye.

Boom!

With a deafening explosion, accompanied by the splattering of sand mixed with the smell of blood, a crater about half a meter in diameter appeared. Fei Xiaojiang, who was in the core of the explosion, had naturally become a corpse, slowly fading in the eyes of everyone, being reclaimed by the world of disaster.

During the execution of tasks by disaster victims, once they die, their bodies will also be regarded as recyclable resources by the world of disaster and reclaimed by the power of time and space.

"No!!"

"Xiaojiang!!"

Gao Shu shouted loudly and Lu Ye also rushed over.

After confirming Fei Xiaojiang's death, the group of five became a group of four. They all activated their skills and attacked the elite black-clothed lackey with all their might. During the process, the elite thug tried to escape several times, but his speed was not high enough, so he was intercepted by several people.

In just over half a minute, the elite black-clothed thug fell to the ground under the full force of the three.

"Why!"

Angry, Lu Ye looked at Lei Wu, Ku Wu, Tao Zi, Han Xue and Chen Mo choked with tears, and questioned, "Why didn't you help him? If we could have killed the elite thug earlier, Xiaojiang wouldn't have died!"

Tao Zi sneered, "Isn't it because of your greed? You also went to kill the elite thug to earn more points, didn't you?"

Lu Ye tearfully retorted, "I just couldn't bear to see Du Qingqing die like that."

Upon hearing this, Tao Zi was speechless.

Ku Wu said, "But you still couldn't save her, could you? Besides, it's not that we didn't want to help. That guy was guarding against us like we were thieves, afraid that we would fight for allocation rights. Greed led to this result. Otherwise, he might not have had time to throw that grenade, and it would have become our reward."

It was only then that everyone noticed Du Qingqing's death.

Du Qingqing, who had been saved by her brother at the cost of his life, faced a severely injured black-clothed lackey but still couldn't hold on until help arrived.

In response to Ku Wu's accusation, Li Yi became angry and said, "Nonsense! I was preventing him from escaping. You all heard it just now. I was following Gao Shu's orders!"

Gao Shu's face darkened, and he silently put away his white-quality machete.

But he really had no right to argue and reverse right and wrong, because he had indeed been thinking of monopolizing the allocation rights of this elite black-clothed thug, instructing Li Yi to prevent others from competing for allocation rights.

Now that Fei Xiaojiang was dead and the trial had just begun, the blow to the team's morale and his confidence as the temporary leader was quite significant.

Am I not suitable to be a leader?

For a moment, Gao Shu fell into self-doubt.

"I must not make any more mistakes in the future!"

After silently swearing in his heart, Gao Shu looked at the tearful Lu Ye and the arguing crowd, and couldn't help but ponder.

How to get out of the current predicament and complete this trial more safely?

However, just then.

"Hmph."

Lei Wu, who looked like he was watching a good show, couldn't help but sneer. Seeing that everyone finally stopped arguing and looked at him, Lei Wu said slowly, "If you want to die here, then continue arguing."

With his words, everyone finally calmed down.

Yes.

The enemies on this island are still unknown. The sound of the grenade just now may have been noticed by other enemies. And everyone is still clueless about the situation of the enemies on this small island. Continuing to argue here is undoubtedly seeking death.

"Let's go!"

Gao Shu gave the order and pulled the heartbroken Lu Ye, running towards the bushes in the center of the island. Sᴇaʀch* Thᴇ ɴøvᴇl_Firᴇ.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

Now they must hide, hide in the dark, evade the enemy's pursuit, and get the most basic information about the enemies on this island from the lackey captured by Tian Tian to determine the next plan.

Arguing about right and wrong here is meaningless.
