Watch Out! Danger Ahead

Chapter 505: Mine (1)

Translator: 549690339

As soon as the assessment began, everyone was racing against time.

Everyone wanted to be the first to reach the mine and start mining.

Song qingjiang took out the map from his pocket and carefully studied it for a while. After remembering the several marks on the map, he confirmed the direction, closed the pocket, and turned to leave.

The mine she was assigned to was far away, and she had to pass through the forest behind the mountain. Song qingxiao was one step behind the others because she had studied the map first.

However, she was not in a hurry. Instead, she entered the forest at a steady speed.

The terrain in the forest was rugged, and it was not easy to walk.

Brambles and short trees were everywhere, blocking the intruders ‘steps and increasing the difficulty of entering the mountain.

The brambles at the entrance were trampled by the players who entered the forest first. Song qingxiao followed the traces of the others.

The bag in her hand was heavy, and the mining tools inside clattered against each other as she walked.

Without the sense of urgency that concerned her life during the trial, this mountain path was not difficult for her at all.

As the sun rose, the temperature in the mountains began to rise. Along the way, song qingxiao saw signs left by the reserve team to confirm the route, and she caught up with several teams that had set off first.

However, the deeper she went into the forest, the fewer team members she encountered, and the fewer trampling marks she left on the ground. It was obvious that the people walking in front of her were getting fewer and fewer, and most of them were left behind by her.

Inside the mountain range, du xingyun and the others had walked for more than two hours. They were so tired that they were gasping for breath. They leaned against a big tree and rested temporarily.

Xingyun, our mining spot isn’t too far away this time. From the map, it’ll take at most half an hour to reach it.”

A young man standing next to du xingyun took out a map. His words caused the few young men and women who were gasping for breath to involuntarily let out a sigh of relief.

“Fortunately, the vice-captain took good care of you, xingyun. The mining spot he arranged for us wasn’t far from the others.”

If the mining site was near, it would save a lot of time and energy compared to others, which was also beneficial for the assessment.

“We’re the ones walking in the front, right?” A young girl used her hand as a fan and fanned her red and sweaty face a few times before asking.

These people were all outstanding existences in the reserve team, and their physical fitness was quite good. In addition, because du xingyun and the vice-captain were like master and disciple, they had obtained the route map to enter the mountain early and studied it in advance without any delay, so they were far ahead of the other team members and walked ahead.

Du xingyun nodded. Hearing the praises of the others, his eyes revealed a bit of pride.

Ever since she had been defeated by song qingxiao, she rarely showed such an expression. Just as she was about to speak, she heard rustling sounds from the bushes not far away.

Everyone was stunned for a moment and turned their heads in unison to look.

A white and slender hand reached out from the bushes and pushed away the trees blocking the way. Song Qing’s small figure passed through the bushes and appeared in front of them.

The moment they saw song Qing, the few people who were chatting and laughing revealed looks of surprise.

From the moment they entered the mountain until now, everyone was sweating profusely and exhausted. In contrast, song qingxiao looked like she was on an outing. Her face was not red, and she was not even panting.

Her eyes swept over du xingyun and the others. Then, as if she had confirmed the route, she silently passed them and went in another direction.

Song qingxiao appeared quickly and left quickly. Not long after, her figure disappeared from everyone’s eyes.

This…” The young man holding the map looked in the direction she disappeared and was dumbfounded.

“Let’s go!” Du xingyun, who had a relaxed expression earlier, bit his lips and stood up.

Song qingxiao walked past them and went to the front of the group.

When there was no one else around, she took out a hairpin from her bag and held it in her hand. She used her spiritual power to split the thorns in her way. With this, she moved even faster and soon arrived at the mine marked on the map.

This mine was located in the middle of the forest, and most of it had been excavated, revealing bare stones.

She walked to the marked point on her map, and about half an hour later, she arrived at the marked mining site.

In the meeting hall, Zhang Yi had clearly said that there would be people supervising the mining meeting today to prevent people from cheating, but at this time, perhaps because she was the first to arrive, the supervisor had not come yet.

Song qingjiang threw away the bag in his hand and started to explore the small area of mineral resources.

The area allocated to her was not small, but the more troublesome thing was that the stone quarry here was a smooth whole piece, making people feel that there was no way to start.

She had seen other ore sources on her way here, and they all had traces of being mined. She thought that the reserve team must have had an ore excavation assessment in the past.

However, because this ore belonged to a whole piece, it was quite difficult for ordinary team members. It seemed that no one had been interested in it for a long time, and the surface of the stone was covered with a thick layer of moss.

After she scraped off the moss on the surface with her hairpin, the hard stone material that was wrapped underneath was revealed.

Song Qing’s small palm moved, and the black Dagger that had been nurtured in her dantian appeared in her palm. Before she could do anything, her divine sense caught an aura that was quickly running towards her.

She furrowed her brows and clenched her fist. The dagger that had just appeared was kept back into her dantian.

She turned around and saw a person approaching her from afar. The person’s aura was quite familiar. It was Liu Xiao, who had competed with her in the school’s training field five days ago.

Before he even got close, he seemed to have noticed song qingxiao. He waved his hand and ran even faster. Like a spirit ape, he appeared in front of song qingxiao in a few leaps.

Ha, I didn’t expect you to come even faster than I did.”

After Liu Xiao arrived, he clenched his fists and placed them on his waist, spinning around in the mine.

He was covered in sweat, and it was obvious that he had rushed here.

The reserve team’s Zhang Yi had said that in order to prevent the team members from cheating, they had specially invited supervisors. Because the reserve team did not have enough people, Captain Ren had specially invited some people from the reserve team.

“It’s you?” Song qingxiao didn’t expect Liu Xiao to be the one supervising her. She had heard some rumors about Liu Xiao from the other Reserve members after their match.

He was one of the candidates from the reserve team who had the highest chance of being selected into the guard team in the past two years He should have been preparing for the selection at the end of the year, but he had actually appeared here to supervise the reserve team’s assessment.

“Yup,” He was still a little breathless. He had been running all the way to the mine without stopping. Although he was fast, he had used up more than half of his energy. His heart was beating very fast.

In contrast, song qingxiao was calm and composed. No one knew how long she had been here.

“I shouldn’t have been involved in such a small matter, but I asked to come after we had a spar last time.”

Liu Xiao ran a few circles in small steps. After he had adjusted his breathing, he started to spin on the spot.

He wiped the sweat from his forehead and glanced at song qingxiao. It was not unexpected that she was the first to reach the mine..
