Astral Apostle Chapter 62: New life goals
After waiting for two days at the Imperial Hunters' residence, Zhou Jing roughly figured out the situation. There are all kinds of supporting facilities here, all serving the Imperial Hunters, and there are many settlements nearby.
Tarn City is not only the capital of the king, but also the safest fortress city in the Terra Empire. The foreign population flows in all the year round, and the fortress city cannot be easily expanded, so three areas are divided, namely the inner city, the outer city and attached town.
Affixed towns are attached to the royal capital and scattered around the city walls. With the restrictions on living in the royal capital and the soaring land prices, most of the foreign population choose to live in the attached towns. According to customs, culture, wealth, etc. Factors imperceptibly separate. There are eight attached towns around the capital, and the Imperial Hunter Station is one of them, which is special than the others.
Except for hunting, the imperial hunters basically do not produce and do nothing. Due to their strong physical fitness, they have a higher level of hormone secretion and strong desire. Most of the time, they are more restless than adolescents, and each has its own way of venting.
Some people sneak to other attached towns to find brothels every day, and some people spend their days on the training ground wrestling with people and sweating.
Because of the strength shown in the short sparring with Cole, the news spread like wildfire in the past two days. All the imperial hunters in the station knew that there was a very powerful newcomer for the second enhancement, and Zhou Jing was invited to wrestle every day.
Hunters are martial, respect the strong, and intense activities can often bring more daily collection income.
In the past two days, I met many people through wrestling, and the name of "Jess" has also spread among the imperial hunters.
On the third day, several hunter teams that went out to hunt finally returned to the city.
Kleiber, the commander of the Empire Hunter, came back. Hearing about Zhou Jing's situation, he didn't even change his clothes stained with the blood of the alien beast. He immediately asked Cole to meet Zhou Jing.
…
Zhou Jing followed Cole to the gate of the residence, and at a glance saw a convoy of more than a dozen pack animals pulling wooden boards, piled with corpses of strange animals of various shapes.
Among them were a few beasts that had been captured alive. They were scarred and **** with special ropes all over their bodies. They had been injected with paralyzing drugs. They hadn't eaten for many days.
A large group of workshop personnel surrounded the convoy, loading and unloading the corpses of the beasts, dragging the surviving beasts out of the car. Beside the convoy, many hunters, including Cole, were surrounded by a crowd of stars.
Zhou Jing's eyes moved over, and he was slightly taken aback.
Different from other tall and burly hunters, this man was less than 1.7 meters tall, but he was extremely stocky, his muscles exploded, almost bursting his leather armor, and he looked very solid, like a rock with distinct gullies. A hexagonal pointed warhammer with an extremely exaggerated proportion of the hammer head was hung on the back, and blood stains stood on it.
Thick eyebrows, big eyes, gray temples, looks not young, with a beard.
"That's our commander Kleiber." Cole introduced in a low voice.
"It's different from what I imagined..." Zhou Jing said honestly.
"I understand." Cole lowered his voice and smiled: "The commander's body is not like this, but when he strengthened the fourth time, he chose a dwarf turtle dragon, and the bad luck inherited the side effects... Anyway, in his In front of you, it's best not to mention your height, whoever mentions it will turn against you."
The corner of Zhou Jing's mouth twitched.
...It seems that it is still necessary to get one or two more blood warriors to pass the level. If a certain enhancement unfortunately gets a side effect, at least there is a backup option for the body to replace.
At this moment, Kleiber saw Zhou Jing, immediately pushed everyone away and walked over, haha said:
"You are Jess! I heard that you can defeat Cole? Well, we Imperial Hunters need talents like you."
Although he was laughing, his voice was extremely deep, almost causing the air to vibrate.
Zhou Jing said hello briefly, and looked at Kleiber curiously.
This is the current chief hunter of the empire, the highest extant enhancer?
He quietly opened the panel and spent 10 star points to start reconnaissance.
The next moment, Creber's attributes were displayed on the panel.
[Attributes: physical strength 74, resistance 80 (second-order max), perception 42, spirit 18, energy 10]
'The three attributes have broken the first level, the resistance is really high, and they have touched the threshold of the second level... Ordinary people should be slightly lower than this level after five enhancements. After all, Creber must know a lot of skills to support himself Attributes... In other words, there are still 10 energy attributes. ’
Zhou Jing was very interested.
According to others, Kleiber is a fifty-five-year-old old hunter. He has served as the commander of the Imperial Hunters for seven years. Kill most of the high-risk beasts, and deal with deadly beasts with ease.
This level of physical attributes has surpassed most of the beasts. In this world, only a very few creatures can threaten his existence.
Based on his own physical parameters, Zhou Jing felt that Kreber's attributes, the strength is conservatively estimated to be more than ten tons, maybe it can reach twenty tons. It seems that he is not good at speed, but the speed is at least 120 tons per hour. Thirty kilometers, the strongest aspect is the defense, which can withstand the impact much stronger than its own strength.
When he was calculating and thinking, his mouth was not idle, and he chatted with Creber for a few words and got to know each other.
Although Creber is the pinnacle of existing hunters, he does not put on airs. Although his voice is powerful, he speaks quite friendly, and speaks bluntly:
"Cole said that you plan to strengthen it three times, you are very courageous, not bad. When you officially join, the workshop's inventory will be open to you, and you can choose the different blood potion. You have waited for a few days, so don't If you delay any longer, go to the Colosseum today, and I will take you there."
He directly left the job of unloading the cargo to his deputy, beckoned Zhou Jing and Cole to follow, and ran straight to the Colosseum, acting resolutely.
Zhou Jing followed closely behind, and the group soon came to the Colosseum on the outskirts of the capital, where a huge circular building was located, guarded by heavy soldiers.
Kleiber went up to talk to the defenders, and directly led Zhou Jing and others in with his face.
Hearing the news, the person in charge of the Colosseum came out to greet him personally, which was very enthusiastic.
"Commander Creber, why are you here today?"
"I'm looking for a strange beast, I want to test our newly added guy." Creber let out a thunderous laugh, straight to the point.
"No problem! I'll get someone to go to the cage and pull one over right away." The person in charge of the Colosseum agreed directly, and then looked at Zhou Jing: "What level of alien beast do you want to fight?"
Kleiber and Cole also turned their heads to look at Zhou Jing.
Zhou Jing groaned, and tentatively asked: "A strange beast in danger?"
He thinks it's better to be on the safe side when it comes to heads-up.
"Okay." Kleiber had no objection.
The second enhancement corresponds to a medium-danger beast. Although Jess is very strong at this level, it is probably okay to challenge a high-risk one. If he succeeds, he is more likely to be valued...but it is somewhat of an adventure.
Choosing to challenge the mid-risk, in Kleiber's view, is doing what he can. He has long passed the age of gambling and taking risks and challenging the limit.
...Of course it is safer to choose low-risk, but that does not meet the corresponding level of strengthening.
Zhou Jing made some preparations before entering the Colosseum, while Creber and Cole came to the high stands to be spectators.
He waited for a while, and suddenly heard the beast roar approaching.
"Hurrrrrrrr!"
The entrance blocked by the iron fence opposite Zhou Jing was opened, and a strange beast roared and rushed into the Colosseum, the chain around its neck dragging on the ground, making clanking sounds.
This is a strange beast with a wolf head and a human body. It is about 2.3 meters tall, with upright legs, a hunched body, long gray and black hair, and sharp claws that are as sharp as knives. It can easily disembowel people and run on the wall. Brush and scratch to make deep claw marks.
"A human-like alien beast, isn't it a gray werewolf..." Zhou Jing recognized the species of this monster.
There is a special species of alien beasts called human-like species, which often have a body structure similar to that of a human body. Compared with other species, their strength and speed are not outstanding, but they are small and difficult to deal with, and they are generally more powerful. cunning.
Grey werewolves are characterized by fast self-healing and a strong sense of smell. Although their physical strength is limited, they are more flexible and agile because of their "petite" size, which is quite dangerous.
The most difficult part is that the gray werewolf is a herd creature, and it will only appear in groups, which is more troublesome than ordinary high-risk beasts. It is rare to have the opportunity to fight alone now.
'It should be deliberately selected by the Colosseum. This kind of strange beast with self-healing ability is probably the Colosseum's favorite, and it can be reused. ’
Zhou Jing pondered in his mind, kept moving, and drew out the long knife on his back... This is a new weapon bought with money, made of fine iron, tough and sharp, and of the highest quality among ordinary weapons.
After the gray werewolf rushed into the Colosseum, he wanted to escape, running and jumping frantically, but he couldn't jump up the high side wall.
When its scarlet eyes rolled, it finally noticed Zhou Jing in the arena, and immediately lowered its body, making a posture that would fly at any time, grinning at Zhou Jing, purring in a low voice, threatening to intimidate the opponent.
Zhou Jing moved his shoulders, and suddenly rushed forward.
Seeing this, the Gray Werewolf let out an angry roar, blatantly volleyed and slaughtered, with ten sharp claws like ten daggers, piercing straight out.
Zhou Jing closed his breath, and instantly entered the state of [Thunder Strike], his explosive power suddenly increased by one gear.
Sa!
He turned his footsteps, and when he was about to collide, he turned around to avoid the slaying claws of the gray werewolf, and there was only a slight difference.
The long knife was raised obliquely, pulling out a long and narrow cold light.
Swipe!
In the Colosseum, two figures crossed each other in an instant.
Quietly, a broken wolf hand flew out.
Blood spurts and the incision is smooth.
One arm of the Gray Werewolf was cut off in just one encounter, and before Zhou Jing's powerful and fast blade, it was like a hot knife cutting butter.
"Woo!"
The gray werewolf suffered from pain, screamed like a puppy, turned around and grabbed it with his arms, and went straight to Zhou Jing's back.
However, Zhou Jing's speed was faster than him, as soon as he stepped on his foot, he turned back with a knife, which was extremely fast.
Swipe——the blade broke through the flesh and bones all the way, and directly cut off half of the palm and a large forearm of the gray werewolf's only remaining hand.
The gray werewolf was in severe pain, and his **** behavior was great. Regardless of the severe injury to his arm, he opened his mouth suddenly, trying to bite off the throat of the enemy who injured him.
Driven by the strong neck muscles, the Gray Werewolf's bite was like a snake's head ejected, very swift and violent, and in a flash, his mouth full of sharp teeth was about to touch Zhou Jing's skin.
But before the gray werewolf bit him, Zhou Jing had a clear insight into the trajectory of his actions.
His complexion remained unchanged, he raised his hand with an elbow, and slammed the gray werewolf's chin heavily, directly closing the **** mouth that was spewing out the fishy smell.
Then he raised his foot and kicked, a huge force exploded, and exploded between the gray werewolf's chest and abdomen.
Boom!
The gray werewolf was kicked into the air.
Only halfway through the flight, the chain around its neck suddenly tightened, and the other end was caught by Zhou Jingtan's hand
Give it a go!
The next moment, a stronger force stopped the gray werewolf's castration, and directly dragged it back in front of Zhou Jing.
Before it landed, Zhou Jing let go of the chain, held the knife in both hands, and slashed towards the flying gray werewolf.
A ray of Senhan's saber light flashed, cutting the gray werewolf's vision horizontally.
The neck passes through the horizontal blade.
Puff!
A huge wolf's head spun into the sky, and the fountain-like beast blood shot out four or five meters high.
The headless corpse passed by Zhou Jing, staggered forward a few steps, and fell to the ground behind Zhou Jing.
"Hoo..."
Zhou Jing exhaled the breath that was pent up in his body, shook off the sticky blood stained on the blade, and put the blade back into its sheath.
The medium-dangerous beast is a slug before Jason's current physique, and he doesn't even need to use rolling skills, he can kill it head-on.
Papa-papa-applause from the stands.
Kleiber looked approvingly: "You played well."
The battle was very short, almost instant kill, from which he saw Zhou Jing's suppressing power, smooth and smooth, with ease.
It looks easy, but only by crushing the Gray Werewolf with strength and speed in all directions, and gaining insight into the habits of fighters and opponents, can it seem like an understatement to quickly kill a mid-danger beast.
Kreb has always been fond of capable hunters.
He jumped off the stands, came to Zhou Jing, raised his head and said, "From now on, you are a glorious imperial hunter."
Don't you need to take an oath or apply for a certificate... Zhou Jing wanted to scratch his head.
The Alien Beast World is more sloppy...simpler than the Main World in this respect.
At this moment, new information suddenly popped up on the panel.
[Trigger achievement [Imperial Hunter]! ]
[You get 500 star points]
[Specific conditions have been met... Do you want to load a new [life goal] for the current apostle? ]
[Current life goal: [empty slot] x3]
[Loadable targets: [Empire Chief Hunter], [Master Hunter], [Beyond Epic]]
"Huh?" Zhou Jing was slightly taken aback.
A new life goal? He thought that after completing the life goal of an apostle and clearing the customs clearance, this thing would no longer exist.
Looks like my guess was wrong, [Life Goal] can be regenerated, and can be replaced or increased or decreased in some way, probably something like career tasks and career achievements.
The number of initial life goals of the star apostle means how many "empty slots" there will be after completion.
Zhou Jing quickly analyzed.
The so-called "accomplishing certain conditions", part of which should be involved in special events or joining certain camps, right?
In this case, it is more beneficial than what I expected. The Eternal Apostle still has this way to stably obtain information state particles, not just making troubles everywhere.
Different from generating new apostles, the self-triggered [Life Goal] is no longer mandatory, and can be discovered by oneself, and it is more flexible to choose whether to load it into an apostle... This is like a normal person who completes a goal and sets a new one The goal.
Furthermore, Zhou Jing discovered that the [life goal] he discovered by himself seems to be similar to the apostle's original [life goal] route, maybe only a more ambitious goal in a similar direction can be triggered?
Is this meaning similar to that a person who is determined to study medicine, unless he encounters a special reason, will not easily have the life ideal of "becoming a literary hero" with a life line that is extremely deviated?
'If not only the eternal apostles, but also the apostles who have not cleared the level can trigger new life goals on their own, then this may be a long-term route to clear the evaluation. Completing customs clearance tasks one after another is more purposeful and stable than doing things in vain, but the premise is that it can be triggered. ’
Zhou Jing pondered secretly and was very excited.
The three targets that can be loaded at this time are all the beast hunter routes.
[Empire Chief Hunter], as the name suggests, must be conferred by the Empire; while [Hunter Master] is to master and be proficient in a large number of hunter breathing techniques and combat skills, and has hunted a total of 100 strange beasts, becoming a "master" recognized by the hunter group ; [Beyond Epic] The number of reinforcements exceeds the historical record, which is higher than Lei Wen's eight times.
"Jason Wood" is currently a salted fish with no goals. Zhou Jing felt that these three goals were similar to his plan, so he chose to load without hesitation.
["Jason Wood" life goal has been replaced]
[Current life goals: [Imperial Chief Hunter], [Master Hunter], [Beyond Epic]]
'I feel like my life has taken off all of a sudden...' Looking at the three new goals, Zhou Jing became inexplicably more motivated.
Creber didn't stop while he was manipulating the panel.
"...As for your friend Rosen, I know the situation, and I can make an exception, without the hunting test." Creber said slowly: "If you can strengthen successfully three times, you will be the backbone of the Imperial Hunter. If you are qualified to lead a small team, incorporate Rosen into your team."
"Okay." Zhou Jing came back to his senses.
Kleiber nodded, raised his hand high, and patted Zhou Jing on the shoulder. With the great leader's expectations for potential employees, he encouraged:
"I'm optimistic about you, you can talk to me when you have time."
After finishing speaking, he didn't stay here any longer, bid farewell to the two of them, bounced straight away, and didn't even leave the main entrance, acting resolutely.
Zhou Jing watched Creber fly out of the Colosseum with a big jump, then turned to look at Cole: "He is quite good."
"Of course, Commander Kleiber is the big brother that our empire hunters trust. He remembers the names of every hunter and apprentice." Cole shrugged.
While the two were chatting, the medical team at the side of the Colosseum had already entered the arena to see if the gray werewolf could be saved.
Finding that it was terribly dead, the medical team immediately turned into an autopsy team, collecting materials on the spot to squeeze out the secondary value of the gray werewolf.
Zhou Jing and Cole didn't stay long, said goodbye to the person in charge of the Colosseum, and set off to go back.
Not long after, the two returned to the Imperial Hunter's residence, and Zhou Jing went directly to the workshop without delay.
Hearing that he has officially become an imperial hunter, the workshop opened its services and took him to the warehouse to show the stock of the blood potion.
"This is what we have in stock now, take a look at what you want."
Zhou Jing took the list handed over by the staff of the workshop, and immediately stared at ~IndoMTL.com~ The dense content is full of lists one after another.
There are so many stocks? !
The number of hunters here is so large, it shouldn't be.
Seeing Zhou Jing's surprise, the workshop staff helplessly explained:
"This workshop is directly under the empire. Unlike other towns, our production capacity is far greater than our consumption. We have sufficient exotic animal materials and almost stop production. Moreover, when developing new formulas, we will create a large number of accessories .
Every year, only when cultivating apprentices, will a large number of different blood potions be used, but in normal times, few hunters want to hit a higher level of strengthening, so the storage is always more and more, and various blood potions are piled up Dust..."
Zhou Jing looked at the high-quality medicines on the list that must have been reserved in other towns long ago, but almost no one cares about them here, his eyes became brighter.
This king's capital is so right to come!
