my sprite emulator

Chapter 65
"are you ready?"

"almost."

"If there are any survival points that you haven't written down, you can always look for the manual I gave you."

"Pay attention to your own safety first."

"If there is an accident beyond our capabilities, you can press the emergency alarm device, and we will rush to the scene as soon as possible."

The examiner and the survival expert sent Kurosawa to the forest entrance.

In front of him is a secluded path, deep into the dense forest, with no end in sight.

Like the open throat of a poisonous snake.

Kurosawa made an OK gesture.

The little Shining and the Nightmare Mayfly are both pretty good at fighting.

Regardless of whether the task can be completed within the time limit, at least there is no need to worry about safety issues.

The examiner had mentioned to him that the area around Haitang was only a low spirit zone, and there was no special danger zone nearby, so the strongest spirits that could be encountered were probably only at the intermediate stage.

The emergency siren is the last resort for requesting assistance from the base in an unmanageable crisis.

Of course, after pressing it, it means that the assessment has failed.

After all, after becoming a professional-level elf master, it is impossible to have assistance in a short period of time when you go on an adventure in the wild.

Everything can only rely on myself and the elves.

Kurosawa took a last look at the two of them, then walked into the forest without looking back.

The footpath gradually disappeared.

Weeds spread to his knees.

He swung his machete to open the way.

"Crack!"

The boots stepped on the weeds and made a crisp sound.

In the forest, sunlight hardly penetrates.

Shaded by layers of lush, impenetrable foliage.

resulting in a slightly lower temperature.

But there is a comfortable feeling in the body.

The spiritual energy seems to be breathing slowly, becoming more agile.

I have experienced this miraculous change for myself.

Only then did Kurosawa truly understand why there are so many professional-level elf masters who prefer to live in the deep mountains and dense forests despite living in a comfortable modern city.

Maybe if you are used to the free and light psionic experience, you will feel uncomfortable when you return to the reinforced concrete jungle in the city.

Kurosawa took a few deep breaths.

The Nightmare Mayfly and Little Shining followed him, alerting the surroundings.

"Beep beep beep——"

A golden lightning flashed from the surface of Little Shining Spirit.

Suddenly, a bolt of lightning shot out from its beak.

In the grass ahead, a black and white snake was struck by the lightning, and it froze instantly.

It must be a venomous snake.

Kurosawa scratched his head.

Elves are more perceptive than humans.

He really didn't notice the snake just now, and he didn't run away when he heard any movement on his way.

The wild is indeed dangerous.

Elves are on the one hand, as are various poisonous mosquitoes and common creatures.

He tightened his jacket.

Controlling the little flashing spirit to emit intense electric light.

In an instant, Little Shining Spirit's powerful mid-level elf breath spread along the air in circles.

Countless rustling sounds.

The little animals ran away.

"Dudu!"

Little Shining approached to claim credit.

"My safety is in your hands."

Kurosawa encouraged Little Shining.

The nightmare mayfly also flew over and circled in front of him a few times.

It seemed to be telling Kurosawa that he could protect him too.

After complimenting the two cubs in turn.

Kurosawa continued to march according to the guidance of the compass.

At noon, Kurosawa hacked out a flat ground.

Remove the moisture-proof pad cover from the storage bracelet.

Leaning under a small tree and having lunch with Little Shining and Nightmare Mayfly.

His storage bracelet is complete with props and materials, all provided by the staff of the base where the assessment is located.

Tents, sleeping bags, emergency medicine kits, spice kits, flint and steel, recovery sprays, clothes, bright flashlights, folding chairs, stoves, and more.

Portable food also includes canned picnic, bread, instant noodles, compressed biscuits and ten liters of purified water.

Two cubic meters of space can store a lot of items.

At least for this kind of short-term field mission, he doesn't need to worry about supplies.

I am having lunch happily.

A twenty-centimeter-long sickle lizard crashed out of the grass.

"Hiss—"

I don't know if I smell the aroma of food.

It opened its mouth and let out a hissing sound. At the same time, it waved its two dagger-sized front claws in a threatening way.

Kurosawa took a bite of the beef jerky without changing his expression.

Sickle lizards are the most common wild elves in wild forest areas.

This sickle lizard is not badly developed, and feeling its breath, it should only have the strength of just entering the primary level.

This kind of elf who has initially left the entry level, let alone the nightmare mayfly and the little sparkle.

Maybe he can't even beat him now.

After many times of Zeus training, his current physical fitness casually knocks down three or four adult men, which is a bit like a little superman.

He tore off a large piece of beef jerky and threw it to the Sickle Lizard who was silently observing the situation ten meters away.

The sickle lizard opened its mouth and swallowed it raw after a few mouthfuls.

Never thinking that it would be dissatisfied after eating it, Wei Wei's small eyes stared at the bigger jerky in Heisawa's hand with a little fierceness.

It kicked its hind legs, and its whole body shot out like a sharp arrow.

The attack did not come.

The Nightmare Mayfly, who was eating the fruit, launched a hypnotic trick at will.

The scythe lizard in the air instantly fell asleep.

The stiff body landed on the moisture-proof pad with a snap according to inertia.

Little Shining didn't even bother to pay attention.

He jumped aside, picked up a jujube and swallowed it.

Kurosawa sighed.

He picked up its tail and flung it back into the grass.

For him, elves of this level were not as threatening as the poisonous snake before.

After lunch, Kurosawa packed up his belongings and moved on.

Keep going all the way.

During the period, more than a dozen entry-level and junior elves were defeated in turn.

Many wild elves are more aggressive than contracted elves.

Unless Little Shining exploded with power, they would always attack Heisawa as if they had lost their minds when they ran into him.

Of course, there are also a few who are more Buddhist.

Feeling his movement, ignore it.

Kurosawa continued to move forward in the grass with the machete.

His physical strength is much better than that of ordinary people, and his arms are slashing like a mechanical arm that will not get tired at all.

For the first time, the workout benefits of Zeus Mode are on full display.

A surveillance room.

Several middle-aged men are watching the video screen and communicating with each other.

A digitally evolved forest pterosaur hangs far behind Kurosawa and follows.

And the data is continuously transmitted back to the data center through the tree-shaped mimic signal tower along the way.

In fact, the forest where Blackpool is located is not exactly a wilderness area.

It is a large field training ground.

"Psychological quality is even stronger than we imagined."

"The body is also very good. Look at this machete. How many hours have I been swinging it, and the movements are not deformed."

"Unfortunately, it would be great if this seedling could come to our department."

"Don't think about it, even if the Begonia Alliance is willing to release people, the headquarters will not agree."

"Small players of this talent level have a great future, and coming to our department is a waste of potential."

"It's so young. My kids are older than him, so they don't do anything serious. Now they skip class all day and go to Internet cafes to play games."

"I didn't listen to the lesson several times, and even shouted to become an e-sports player."

"This comparison is really a world."

The second assessment does not test the strength of elf masters, but more their psychological endurance and adaptability.

With the protection of the guardian elves, it stands to reason that the risk factor is very low, and the mission will be carried out very smoothly.

But judging from the previous situation, there are still many candidates who will fall into anxiety and even collapse.

Especially for the young Sunshine group candidates like Kuisawa, they are relatively young, have lived in the city since they were born, have experienced too little, and their psychological endurance is average.

In the dark forest, weeds are densely covered, and the environment is cold and humid. It is necessary to guard against various mosquito poisons and potential dangers that emerge at any time, while constantly expending energy to move forward.

Various factors will superimpose into huge psychological pressure.

But obviously, the candidates they are observing now are in a good emotional state.

And the speed of travel is very fast. In just a few hours, they have traveled more than ten kilometers under their monitoring.

The required time for the task is one week.

According to this speed, it is estimated that the target object can be removed in two to three days to complete the round trip.

Kurosawa didn't know that he was being talked about by the examiners.

He hummed softly, pressing the weeds with his stiff boots.

Check the compass from time to time and adjust it to make sure you are going in the right direction.

There are no roads in the wild, so it's normal to get lost accidentally.

Suddenly, the little shining spirit who was on guard in the distance uttered a soft cry.

Kurosawa glanced at the Elven Radar, but there was no response.

This elf radar will send out an alarm when it senses the existence of odor particles exceeding the intermediate elf level in the air.

So there's a wild mid-level elf nearby?

Kurosawa held the idea that one thing more is worse than one thing less, and wanted to avoid it.

But Little Shining grabbed the corner of his clothes and muttered hurriedly.

Got something good?

Kurosawa stopped in his tracks.

Then you can go and see.

Kurosawa followed Little Shining to the destination carefully all the way.

"Boom!"

Pushing away the grass, there is a waterfall in front of you.

The falling water of the waterfall converges into a small lake.

There was a small island in the middle of the lake, and a dwarf tree took root in it.

Look what he found?
Dozens of light red fruits hung on that dwarf tree, among which were some special purple fruits.

Now there is no need for Little Shining to urge, Kurosawa can vaguely feel the special smell coming from above.

It should be some kind of spiritual fruit.

In addition to the large-scale production of special resources in subspace, various spiritual plants and minerals will also be randomly transformed into wild areas.

This phenomenon is called "erosion".

For example, some ordinary fruits on trees are randomly transformed into spiritual fruits, and stones on the side of the road suddenly become special energy minerals.

The occurrence of erosion phenomena is irregular and the probability is very small.

Belonging is a windfall of wild adventures.

"Thank you for the gift of nature!"

Kurosawa, who came across a special discovery by chance, was in a good mood.

Before accepting nature's gift, however, there are a few things to attend to.

Like the blue lemur resting under a tree.

There is a high probability that those spiritual fruits are not ripe, otherwise his spiritual fruit should have entered the stomach of the lemur elf long ago.

The immature spiritual fruit will be less effective, but better than none.

While Kurosawa was having a bad idea, the giant blue lemur opened its eyes.

It looked around, then jumped high.

"Roar!"

He roared violently in the direction of Kurosawa.

The huge sound waves shook the lake water.

"Why are you yelling so loudly?"

See yourself noticed.

Kurosawa walked out unhurriedly.

"Crack!"

Little Shining instantly entered the lightning form.

The whole body turned into brilliant gold, like a small sun hanging in the air.
