BXBX NOVEL Chapter 32: Today’s Deal
Chapter 32: Today's Deal
The perfection-level Basic Red Sun Evolution Technique allowed him to have the top cultivation speed of a beginner-rank Evolver.
It wasn't difficult for him to advance to level 3 within a month.
Today was the last day for the rookies to apply to the various departments of the three major institutions. It was equivalent to filling in their college applications.
After that was the approval, admission, deployment, notification, and preparations.
The whole process would take about five days.
The other students might be on tenterhooks as they waited for the results, but Wang Ye, who ranked first in the rookie trial, had no such worries. In contrast, the admission of Wang Ye to the rescue team was officially announced on the Evolution Camp's intranet less than an hour after he applied to join.
And today, another red banner was posted.
[The rescue team welcomes West Camp batch 101 student Yu Shuiqin.]
Although the banner was short, it was shocking enough.
As the one with the weakest presence among the three special departments, the rescue team immediately received a lot of attention.
In the past, the rescue team often failed to get any of the top three in the rookie trial.
"Huang Zirui is right. She is indeed kind."
From Wang Ye's point of view, Yu Shuiqin's social phobia and her uniqueness as an ability user made joining the Future Center her best choice.
Yet, she chose to join the rescue team. Other than her ideals and beliefs, there was no other explanation.
It couldn't be for the sake of him, right?
...
The camp vehicle stopped at Encampment No. 3.
Wang Ye refilled some water and food before setting off for the northern region.
Today, he was going to take it steady.
Nanhu Park was still dangerous.
Although he had been very careful yesterday, he still ran into a high-grade fiend-level monster in the end and was slightly injured.
As a result, Doctor Shu forbade him from exercising vigorously at night, and she moved herself.
"Today, I'll go home safely and peacefully."
Wang Ye had an ominous feeling after he finished speaking.
Every time he raised a promise, he would be slapped in the face...
Compared to Nanhu Park, which was filled with danger, the north was sparsely populated.
In the past, it was a suburb. Because there were no rivers or lakes, it did not attract too many fiend-level monsters.
This place was more suitable for pre-genetic warriors and level 1 genetic warriors to temper themselves.
For the current Wang Ye, it was very safe.
After he applied for the rescue team yesterday, he video-called his family and confirmed that he would go home at night.
While he was at it, he would drop by the gene park to get the exclusive equipment that he had received as a reward from the rookie trial.
After all, he didn't have much time to rest. Once the rescue team gathered, he would have to leave the Eastern Base City and carry out missions.
Ding!
Wang Ye's favorite voice sounded on the phone.
[Your digital currency account has received 181180 yuan.]
It was here! The income from the high-grade fiend-level tree monster yesterday!
It was about the same as his estimation, about 150,000 yuan.
Adding on his earnings from killing other fiend-level monsters, the total amount was considerable.
"387800."
Wang Ye opened his digital currency account and checked. It was almost 400,000 yuan.
The original owner of this body hadn't left him with any money, which left him no choice but to go to Doctor Shu's place to eat and sleep at that time.
In December and January, his mother, Chen Tingyu, transferred him 1000 yuan for living expenses.
He had returned the money.
It was not that he was embarrassed, but he knew very well about his family's situation. This money was not something he could take.
"If I work harder, I can buy a toilet in the Eastern Base City."
Wang Ye recalled the first pot of gold he had earned in his previous life. He had used it to buy a second-hand house.
It wasn't big, but at least he had a home. It saved a lot of unnecessary hotel expenses.
The current housing prices were even more ridiculous than that in his previous life.
The Eastern Base City's average housing price started at 100,000, and that was in remote areas.
The house prices in the city center started from 200,000 to 300,000 yuan, and there was no upper limit.
There was nothing that could be done since housing was a basic necessity.
Currently, Huaxia had a total of ten base cities but a total of 500 million people.
As the rescue team moved, more refugees would be rescued and the population would continue to increase.
"Hmm?"
Wang Ye saw a celebrity van with a flat tire from afar.
It wasn't an abandoned car that had been corroded by the red rain in the wild, but a new car that was equipped with thermal weapons. It came from the base city.
Yesterday, he saw it near Encampment No. 3, and today, it was dead.
Even though the country repeatedly emphasized the dangers of the wild, there were always people who had wishful thinking and took risks just to make money.
"For the sake of popularity, they're just throwing their lives away." Wang Ye sighed.
He sped past the celebrity van and suddenly stopped.
Something was wrong.
He quickly turned back.
Wang Ye's gaze turned cold as he looked into the vehicle.
The car window was smashed, and the male driver's neck had been badly mutilated. It seemed that a monster had bitten through his blood vessels and killed him.
A headless corpse was sitting in the passenger seat, looking even more miserable.
There was a lot of filming equipment in the car, and it seemed that they had been live broadcasting.
However, there were only two dead staff members in the back row. Clearly, someone was missing.
"Had he been dragged away as food?" Wang Ye looked around the car. There were some blood stains, but nothing special.
Was this premeditated murder?
Wang Ye carefully looked at the four corpses in the car.
If it was done by a fiend-level monster, even if it didn't eat them all, it wouldn't have left their corpses intact.
But if it was done by a human... No, it couldn't be.
"There are teeth marks on the necks and blood stains everywhere. The culprit must have eaten their meat and drank their blood. The lethal attack, the wounds, and the degree of ruthlessness are all things that only fiend-level monsters can do. I can only say that they are unlucky..."
Wang Ye shook his head.
In the wild, many Evolvers died every day, not to mention ordinary people.
Moreover, they were simply bringing this upon themselves.
...
Five minutes later.
"This..." Wang Ye saw a student's corpse on the side of an abandoned road.
To be precise, the other party was an Evolver.
They had participated in the rookie trial together, so he had an impression of the other party.
He couldn't remember his name, but he should be one of the top 100, a student from the elite classes.
The other party's corpse was almost exactly the same as the driver he had seen just now. His neck was badly mutilated as if a monster had drunk his blood.
He was lying in a pool of blood and had died just not long ago.
The only difference was that he had many wounds on his body.
It was obvious that he had experienced an intense battle before he died.
"There's also a bite mark on the neck! A large amount of blood has been lost, but the corpse has not been bitten!"
Wang Ye's body trembled.
Could it be...
He thought of a possibility.
The culprit wasn't a monster.
The tip of his nose twitched. There was still blood in the air.
Wang Ye hesitated for a moment. He looked at the student who had died tragically and frowned. Then, he carefully followed the smell of blood.
He was not a busybody, but he couldn't just stand there and pretend nothing had happened after seeing his fellow student being brutally killed.
If that was the case, he would look down on himself.
"I'm getting closer."
Wang Ye walked along the edge of the road and noticed the smell of blood getting stronger and stronger.
Around him, buildings had collapsed and cars had turned into scrap metal. All of them spoke of the tragic nature of the disaster.
Wang Ye slowly moved around the corner of the street. He could vaguely hear voices. A strange light flashed in his eyes as he pressed his right hand on the hilt of his sword.
He was very close!
His sixth sense was so clear that he could even sense the danger a hundred meters away.
Wang Ye stuck close to the wall and moved his head to the side bit by bit. His gaze fell on the ruins in the distance. The scene suddenly became clear and his pupils instantly enlarged.
As expected, it was them!
