“Join the military after graduation?” Lu Yan did not expect Wang Yi to be so straightforward and could not help but ponder.
Seeing this, Wang Yi smiled and said, “Lu Yan, I believe you also know that the combat strength of the military region increases very quickly.”
“In the military region, rewards and punishments are distributed fairly. As long as you have enough strength, you can obtain various rewards after completing the mission.”
“The military region has never been vague about nurturing talents.”
Lu Yan nodded. This was not a problem.
The university and the military region were the two fairest places. They did not care about interpersonal relationships and only cared about strength.
Many fierce people, such as the level 76 Axe King, Yang Fuqing, who had killed 10 foreign races, and Li Yuhu, who had entered the wilderness alone and killed 100 epic level demon beasts in a day, were all from the military region.
Of course, the training and missions of the military region were also very strict. The mortality rate was also very high.
Wang Yi saw Lu Yan’s hesitation and smiled. “Lu Yan, you don’t have to give me an answer now. This is my name card. If you have the intention to join the military region, just contact me.”
Lu Yan had just become a new student of Golden Corner University and still had a few years to go before he graduated. Joining the military region or joining another faction was not the most important thing for him to consider now.
Lu Yan received the business card from the other party and nodded. “When the time comes, I’ll definitely contact Station Leader Wang.”
Wang Yi smiled and nodded. Then, he took out a pitch-black card and handed it to Lu Yan.
“Lu Yan, this is your entry pass. There are already 1,000 points inside, equivalent to 100,000 energy coins. You can spend them freely in the supply station. This is your reward for breaking the record.”
“In addition, your identification card is of the highest level. You can buy the limited items in the supply station.”
Lu Yan nodded. He did not expect the reward for breaking the record to be this good.
“Alright, I won’t say anything else. If you want to join the military anytime in the future, you can contact me.” Wang Yi stood up directly when he saw Lu Yan accept the identification card.
The people of the military region had always been swift and decisive.
Lu Yan nodded and left, heading towards the hall.
Soon, Lu Yan met up with Liu Fengyan and the others.
“Junior Lu Yan, you’re amazing. You directly doubled the record.” Hu Feng looked at Lu Yan and smiled.
“I remember that when I was at level 15, my four attributes were only 180. Compared to Junior Lu Yan, I am simply inferior.” Liu Fengyan also sighed.
Lu Yan smiled and then said, “Senior Liu, where’s the place to buy things at the supply station? I just obtained some credits and can buy something.”
Liu Fengyan patted his head. “I forgot that you will be rewarded with points for breaking the record. The exchange place is on the second floor. I’ll bring you there.”
The others also followed to see if there was anything they had missed and needed to buy.
When he arrived at the second floor, Lu Yan saw a room that looked like a trading hall.
There was only one room on the entire second floor. There were all kinds of items inside. Anyone who entered the wilderness could replenish their supplies here.
Here, if one had points, they could use them to buy it. If one did not have points, they could also use energy coins to buy it.
Lu Yan browsed around and his gaze quickly landed on the limited purchase area.
What was sold there were essence tonics, attribute enhancement pills, and some items with special effects.
The items in this area were all limited. Moreover, one needed to have the proper identification to buy them.
Essence tonics and attribute enhancement pills were both relatively rare and popular resources. Although Lu Yan had so many essence tonics and attribute enhancement pills in his reward, it was only because those were the rewards for being the provincial champion.
Even in the treasure vault of the Golden Corner Academy, essence tonics were limited.
The price of an essence tonic here was 200 points. There was a limit of three pills a week. One attribute enhancement pill cost 150 points. There was a limit of five pills a week.
Lu Yan did not hesitate and directly bought as many as he could. He still had 50 points left after buying five agility enhancement pills and an essence tonic.
After adding 5 points to agility, it was 92. After Lu Yan added the essence tonic to his intelligence, it reached 154.
After increasing his attributes again, Lu Yan, Liu Fengyan, and the others headed to the wilderness.
After leaving the supply station, they arrived in the wilderness. The first thing they entered was the Black Fog Forest.
The Black Fog Forest was an entire dense forest. It was named after the black fog inside.
The entire Black Fog Forest was very large, almost covering the entire area in front of him.
The destination Lu Yan and the others were going to was an area in the Black Fog Forest.
The most famous thing about the Black Fog Forest was not the black fog floating inside, but the dark elves living inside.
Compared to ordinary elves, the skin of the dark elves was a beautiful black. Coupled with the beautiful face of the dark elves, they exuded a different aura.
In fact, on the black market, the price of dark elves was even higher than ordinary elves with fair skin.
Therefore, the Black Fog Forest had attracted many professionals who hunted dark elves. It was said that the dark elves in the Black Fog Forest were now extremely vigilant after being hunted. It was dozens of times more difficult to capture them than in the beginning.
When he left the supply station, Lu Yan and the others were already fully armed.
In the wilderness, they could encounter demon beasts’ attacks at any time. They had to be very careful.
After entering the Black Fog Forest, Lu Yan and the others directly plunged in.
A faint black fog appeared in the Black Fog Forest. It could block a certain amount of vision, making the surroundings even more dangerous.
“Line up. Mages and archers in the middle. Warriors, defend the surroundings. We don’t have a priest this time, so we have to be especially careful.” Liu Fengyan looked at the few people around him and quickly formed the formation he had previously determined.
Among all the combat professions, the priest profession had the least number of people and were very rare. Even among auxiliary professions, there were very few who could make healing liquid. This was also one of the reasons why medical resources were relatively expensive.
According to the previous formation, Lu Yan arrived at the back of the team and was in charge of the safety behind.
Lu Yan was not a conventional mage and could completely take on the responsibility of defending the team.
As soon as they entered the Black Fog Forest, there were still relatively few demon beasts. Ten minutes after Lu Yan and the others entered the Black Fog Forest, they sensed that there were demon beasts surrounding them.
The entire team continued forward. Suddenly, three black shadows rushed out from in front of them and directly pounced towards Liu Fengyan in front of the team.
It was the Black Spot Leopard!
This Level 15 demon beast attacked quickly.
Liu Fengyan raised the shield in his left hand, and a golden light appeared, directly blocking the Black Spot Leopard in front of him.
At the same time, he raised the sledgehammer in his right hand and instantly smashed the head of a Black Spot Leopard.
At this moment, two arrows shot out from the team and accurately hit the heads of the remaining two Black Spot Leopards, directly piercing through their heads.
Liu Fengyan and the others had all been to the wilderness before and could easily cooperate.
At this moment, five black shadows emerged from the forest behind and pounced towards Lu Yan.
These Black Spot Leopards were targeting their rear.
