Chapter 80: Scam

If the Diyi Town on the ground could be said to be the ruins of a slum, then where Lin Xuan had entered now had a modern feel to it.
The modern layout, the high-class bar counter, the dazzling array of glass bottles of wine, the neatly placed tables and chairs that were waiting to be opened for business, the big ball of light above his head blossomed in all kinds of colors and was extremely dazzling.
“Is this your first time in Hunter Town?”
A youth behind him patted Lin Xuan’s shoulder in a friendly manner. He could see Lin Xuan’s astonishment, “Hunters really know how to enjoy themselves. Even in the wilderness, who would be willing to usethe ground as their bed if they could live comfortably? I’m He Fengming, a sophomore in high school.”
“It’s indeed your first time in Hunter town. I thought it was just the situation on the ground. Is it the same in other hunter towns? I’m Lin Xuan, a sophomore in high school.
“In any case, the other towns I went to are all built like this, and the fees are also very expensive. I don’t really recommend you to go… Well only before graduation.”
“There are fees?”
“Of course. The resources needed to build an underground town are not small. You also know that our land is covered with explosives, so the buildings here are very sturdy. After spending so much, we naturally need to tax them. Moreover, it is so important to have a safe place to rest in the wilderness. So what if you pay a little fee? If you don’t want to pay, you can also go back to where they were. It is just that, you might encounter a wild monster’s attack. Explosives, yes, you understand…”
He understood very clearly what he was trying to imply. If they were up there and they were ambushed by a group of wild monsters at night, their first reaction would not be to repel the wild monsters, but to escape under the terrifying amount of explosives.
“I understand, but I think most of our students are training in Diyi Town. What does that mean?”
“How should I put it? Just look at the name of Diyi Town. Our school spent a lot of effort to build this town. Therefore, for us students, the food, clothing, and accommodation here are free, but they are only limited to food, clothing, and accommodation.”
At the bar counter, a senior who was in her third year of high school clapped her hands to attract their attention.
“We are all students of Imperial Capital’s first high school. Let’s cut the cr*p. Many students are worried about that black-level wild monster. Previously, a student encountered two black-level wild monster. Today, another student encountered three black-level wild monster in the inner area. Therefore, we need to deal with it in a strategic way.”
......
The students were divided into 3 classes — ordinary students, top class students, and powerhouses of the school team.
Powerhouses were students that entered the peak of yellow-rank in the first half semester of the first year of senior high school. Then, they would enter the black-rank in the second half semester. After that, they would suppress their strength and fight for half a year until they reached the peak of black-rank in the first year of senior high school. When they graduated, they would be able to reach the peak of their next rank.
The process of improving the strength of the students was to make them enter the peak of the yellow rank and try to expand their boundaries. After the second year of high school, they would start to advance towards the next rank. By the time they graduated, they would be able to break through to their highest rank.
As for the ordinary students, they would be able to enter the peak of the yellow rank in the third year of high school. However, in order to graduate, they would have to complete the hunting of their graduation prey.
“First of all, the raging porcupine that was with the scarlet fruit can only be hunted after the school has issued a mission. It is located in a valley. If we block the road out of the valley with something and flood it with a large amount of water, it will be very easy to deal with.
“Next, the wind elemental commander, a wandering mystic class elemental wild monster. Its movement speed is fast, and it is proficient in wind spells. Its perception ability is outstanding. It is not easy to deal with. Moreover, we must kill it as soon as possible, or else it might run away.
“Lastly, the wind spirit tiger, a wandering mystic class wild monster. Its movement speed is extremely fast, and it is proficient in wind spells and sound waves. Its temperament is irritable, and it is even harder to deal with. Moreover, we must kill it as soon as possible, or else it might rampage somewhere else.
“Form a large team of three, and choose the mystic rank monster that you want to kill.”
The senior pulled down a blackboard from above. One was a secretly taken picture of the raging porcupine, and the other two were photos that were searched on the internet. They also detailed the situation of the three mystic rank monsters, their strengths, weaknesses, and so on.
After a long while, everyone’s discussion finally came to an end. They had roughly decided on the monsters that they would face. The only thing that they were not too sure about was that the raging porcupine. However, there was nothing they could do about it except to try. Moreover, the possibility of killing it was low.
The senior walked down the stage, and another senior walked up. “Next is the freedom segment. There are things to trade here, information, and partners to take risks. You can do it publicly or privately.”
All of a sudden, this hall was like a wet market. Many students placed their entire day’s harvest on the table and shouted loudly. There were also some who exchanged goods, instantly solving what each party wanted.
Lin Xuan chose to take a break. Although the effect of his stealth was excellent, there were also many wild monsters who unintentionally witnessed Lin Xuan’s heroic bearing. Helplessly, in order not to alert the enemy, he could only let them fall into a long slumber, among them were a few wind grass rabbits.
Some spirit herbs and potions were much more expensive in the Imperial City than in Hunter town. Lin Xuan also took the opportunity to use his useless magic core to exchange for a lot of spirit herbs and potions.
…
“Are you doing this on purpose? Do you want to go alone?”
“That’s the middle of the outer region. There are quite a number of mystic-rank monsters there. I naturally have to find someone with great strength. Moreover, I’m not sure how many dragon blood fruits there are. If there are only one or two, then it’s not enough for both of us. I definitely have to find a powerful lone wolf expert.”
The classmate who had been annoyed at the beginning also calmed down. The other party’s reasoning had convinced him otherwise. “Alright, alright. I don’t like it, but you’re right.”
Lin Xuan did not know if it was an illusion, but he felt that the classmate who had discovered the dragon blood fruit was peeking at him from time to time. It was a little suspicious.
“Hey, can you look for the fruit with me?”
“How strong are the few of you?”
“We’re pretty strong. And we’re looking for another strong player.”
He was definitely lying!
