C224

My heart was still a little excited, and I happily watched the lake in the distance. I drove at a moderate pace, opened the window and let the evening breeze into the car, which gave me a relaxing and beautiful feeling. Tang Yun quietly sat in the passenger seat, looking out the window at me, and then at me again. The corner of her mouth lifted slightly, but she didn't say anything.

"Say what you want to say." I glanced at her.

"Can you really tell me?" she asked with a slight smile.

"Sure."

"You drive like a quail. What are you so afraid of? "I can promise you right now, if you bump into me, that'll count as my ~ ~ ~"

I couldn't help but say, with a mouthful of blood, "It's easy for you to say, but I'm different. I'm a person who has lived a rough life. This car has enough wheels to make a poor family live for a few years. I can't bear to part with it."

She seemed to feel something and gently nodded her head. "Oh, okay."

As the car continued to circle around the city, I looked up and sighed with emotion, "Autumn pants building has arrived …"

Tang Yun smiled. "In the center of Suzhou."

… ….

Although it was opening very slowly, Suzhou was still very small. In the blink of an eye, they had circled back and had no choice but to obediently drive back to send Tang Yun back to school. If they were any later, the door to the girl's apartment would have closed.

"You really don't need me to send you off?" she asked with a smile.

"No need."

I replied smilingly, "What if I cause you to be locked out? Wouldn't that be a huge crime?"

Stop the car and take her downstairs.

Tang Yun carried a small bag and turned around to look at me. She pursed her red lips and revealed a heartfelt smile. Then, she waved her hand and said, "I'm going up. Good night ~ ~"

"Hm, good night ~"

After watching her go upstairs, I jogged out of the campus, caught a cab, and returned to the studio.

When he entered the hall, he could smell a faint fragrance coming from his nose. Coincidentally, it was already midnight.

"Brother Chen!"

Lin Che raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, "You went to get the express delivery?"

I was startled.

At Lin Che's side, Su Xi Ran was surprised: "Hey, Captain Ding, where's your express delivery?"

While I was still confused, Lin Che winked at me. I immediately woke up, touched the back of my head, and smiled: "I couldn't find the courier, and came back. It just happened to be midnight snack."

"Oh, sit down and eat."

When I sat down, Xu Jiaxing looked at Lin Che and said, "Lin Che, I keep on having the feeling that you're teaming up with Eldest Brother, isn't that right?"

Lin Che resentfully said, "Cheng Cheng, you've changed. At first, when we first arrived at the studio, you called him Brother Lin Che. Now, you can address him by his full name, Lin Che."

Xu Jiancheng giggled. "I'm not one of those little girls anymore. How could I just call you big brother? That's so disgusting!"

"Is that so?"

Lin Che grinned, "What if Boss wants you to call him Big Brother Mu Chen?"

"About this..."

Xu Jiaqing pondered for a moment before smiling, "That's fine."

"Hmph, different treatment!"

I coughed and picked up a steamed bun to take a bite. "How is everyone today?"

"Everything is normal."

Su Xi Ran said, "Hai Yang's Cast Sword Technique proficiency has already reached level 7. Today, she has forged more than 20 swords and only produced a purple gold weapon, but her attributes are not that good, so I conservatively estimate that she will only receive one or two thousand today. The main income will still be sealed by your magical beast, Team D.

"So many!"

I was overjoyed and said smilingly, "It seems that we've really made a huge profit. We're preparing to celebrate the new year!"

Su Xi Ran laughed lightly: "En!"

"Any plans for tomorrow?"

"No, during the day we'll do our own tasks and level up. At night we'll continue to fight in the Survival Battlefield."

"Alright!"

After eating supper, he washed up and went to sleep. From far away, he heard the chirping of chickens coming from outside the window. It was unknown who had brought up the rooster's biological clock which was messed up.

… ….

The next morning, everything went back to how it used to be: morning practice, breakfast, online.

"Swish!"

Someone appeared in the Great Deer City to repair equipment, replenish potions, take out a crystal, and teleport to Tong Tian Tower.

Snowflakes drifted down from the observation platform. The teacher, Shuang Han, had a pair of swords on his back as he looked into the distance. His shoulders were covered in snow. He sighed and said, "This year's winter arrived even earlier …"

"Teacher, what's the difference?" I asked.

He frowned and said, "Nothing, boy, you're back."

"Yes, what's the mission for today?"

"You may … I need a real session of hard work. " Shuang Han's expression gradually turned serious as he said: "Ding Mu Chen, although you are a talent recommended by Princess Luo Qingyi, you are now a member of our Temple Knight and have a reason to contribute everything, including your life, to the Temple, don't you?"

I frowned. "In principle, yes."

"Well then, today you will follow me to complete an extremely important mission. Perhaps calling it a mission would be more appropriate."

I shivered slightly as I had never seen Frost so serious. Soon after, I heard the melodious sound of a system bell ringing in my ears. The quest had arrived, and this time it was a terrifying double S rank main quest –

"Ding ~!"

System Notification: You have accepted the Main Mission [Devil Slayer] (SS Level: 0, 0, 0)!

Content of the task: Unknown

… ….

Unexpectedly... It's a SS grade 5 star mission?

I was dumbfounded. What kind of main mission was this? To be able to receive a mission of this level, it should be enough to affect the life and death of the main city in the future, right?

For a moment, my heart was in a frenzy. Looking at the trust in my teacher's eyes, I couldn't help but feel my blood boil. "Teacher, don't worry. I will not fail my mission. I will not disappoint your expectations!"

Shuang Han also nodded, "I believe in you. Your talent and perception are the strongest Temple Knight I have ever seen. Although you are only a copper ranked Temple Knight, you have the qualifications to participate in this hunt."

"Yes sir!"

I waited for a while and asked, "When are we leaving?"

"Wait a little longer."

Shuang Han looked up at the sky and said, "We'll leave after nightfall."

"Oh …"

After waiting for a good half an hour, the game's dark night finally arrived. A snowy night appeared before their eyes. It was so dark that they couldn't see anything clearly.

In the distance, the clang of a chain colliding with a device could be heard. A group of Temple Knights were riding on horses as they coldly looked over. One of them shouted, "Shuang Han, take your disciple and set off!"

"Yes, my lord!"

Under the illumination of the fire on the wall of the Ninth Floor of Tong Tian Tower, a troop of at least fifty Temple Knights stood guard. They were all well-dressed, their swords shining, their spears shining black, and their fiery-red armors looking as if they could ignite fire at any moment, emitting the radiance of an inscription pattern.

Including me, there are more than fifty Temple Knights moving together. What kind of lineup is this?

As expected, something big was going to happen tonight!

He couldn't help but feel a little nervous in his heart. Following the frost cold, a large group of people came down from the elevator, immediately summoning a Snow Leopard, followed by a group of Temple Knights. In the blink of an eye, they appeared on the snowy plains, and behind them, a group of soldiers from the prefectural army looked at them with reverence. In the blink of an eye, the lights from Skysplit Tower grew further and further away, gradually disappearing.

The wind whistled and the snow swirled in the air.

"Pei Lie, is the bait ready?" Among them, a Temple Knight asked.

"Yes, I am ready. Rest assured, my lord!"

"I'm sure... Is that an area where it's often found? "

"Yes." The silver-ranked knight called Pei Lie had a gloomy look on his face as he said, "This subordinate has personally seen it roam about the area three times, perhaps it belongs to its territory. As long as the bait is properly prepared, it will definitely come tonight."

"Very good!"

"Shuang Han, take good care of your disciples. Once you succeed, you will have to be the first to charge forward and instantly destroy the prey's resistance. Do you understand?"

"Yes, my lord!"

While urging his horse to gallop, Shuang Han turned around and looked at me. "Stinky brat, follow me closely later. Don't act rashly. Our prey … It's not that easy to surrender! "

"Yes, instructor."

… ….

After speeding along the snowy mountain ridge for nearly an hour, they finally stopped in the middle of a glacier that was as cold as a blade. Due to the glacier blocking the cold wind, the sound of the wind was much softer, but it was still extremely cold.

The leading Golden Temple Knight pointed to a valley in the distance, and said, "That's the place, everyone is looking for a place to hide. Lord Shuang Han, bring your disciple with you and set up an ambush."

"Yes, my lord!"

The frost cold rushed past and the long sword suddenly pierced through the ice wall. "Bang!" With an explosive sound, Dou Qi exploded, blasting an ice cave that was at least two people tall. He extended his hand and said, "Kid, hide with me."

"Oh …"

I was a little doubtful and whispered, "Instructor, this valley is so rugged. Are you sure that there will be beasts that will find this place? If we don't come, then wouldn't it be a waste of our time? "

Shuang Han smiled faintly. "Most beasts can't find such a place in the dark, but there is one that can. Don't ask, just follow me."

"En, alright!"

Not far away, the Temple Knights were gathered together in groups of two or three, carving a space to hide themselves beneath the ice wall. At the same time, they took out the heavy equipment carried on the horses, and reinstalled them, and not long after, five heavy crossbows shining with blood-colored glints appeared in front of them. Every arrow was like a heavy spear, and at the back of the crossbow was an iron chain shining with inscriptions.

"Set up the formation, start the fire, and release the prey!"

A dozen or so Temple Knights were chanting together, setting up an invisible formation in the middle of the valley, and immediately igniting torches that never went out, before throwing a few black bags inside. As the bags broke free, a few barbarian men holding a battle axe rushed out, and with faces full of anger, they growled, "Despicable Temple Knights, you will all die a miserable death!"

There were a total of seven to eight barbarians. They all waved their battle axes, but when they slammed against the barrier, it was as if they were chopping a mountain. They did not move at all.

Immediately, a few Temple Knights threw themselves into the formation, one figure after another.

"Roar, roar, roar ~ ~"

The low growl was very familiar, it was the ghost soldiers. In the blink of an eye, the dozen or so ghost soldiers began to fight with the barbarian soldiers.

… ….

I kept quiet, the fire in my eyes burning, but my heart was filled with mixed emotions, as if I had already guessed something. To one side, my teacher, Shuang Han, was holding onto a pair of swords, his gaze burning with passion as he said with a faint smile, "He's here, he's almost here."
