Mortal counterattack

"Brother Chen, why do I feel that you are different?"

Zhou Chen smiled and said, "How did you find out?" Then Zhou Chen casually waved his hand, and an air blade flew out from the wooden stick in his hand and directly broke a big tree.

"Yiyao, I have made a breakthrough. Now I have reached the sixth level." Leng Yiyao didn't know much about the realm, but anyway, the breakthrough meant that Zhou Chen was getting better and better.

The two then returned to the city and found the largest restaurant. The price of this restaurant was not cheap, but Zhou Chen and his wife still had nearly two thousand taels of silver in their hands, so they could still afford to spend this amount of money.

The two then ordered a table of meals, including meat and vegetables. The meats were all made from seventh-grade monster meat. Zhou Chen even ordered a dish that was bleeding. The portion of the dish was not large, although it was only about a kilogram of meat. , but the price is one hundred taels.

However, Zhou Chen did not feel that it was worthless, because this was the meat of a sixth-level monster. When the food was served, Zhou Chen couldn't help but pick up a piece of meat with chopsticks, put it in his mouth and even bit it. I swallowed it without biting.

What surprised Zhou Chen was that he did not get any strengthening points. Then Zhou Chen tried several times and the results were still the same. Not only that, even eating seventh-grade beast meat was the same, which surprised Zhou Chen very much.

Zhou Chen thought for a while, maybe it was because his system panel was being updated, so he couldn't obtain enhancement points for the time being, "Brother Chen, what's wrong with you? You seem to be worried"?

"It's okay" Zhou Chen said as he gave Leng Yiyao a piece of meat. While eating, Zhou Chen saw Wang Wu and three others walking in wearing official uniforms. The three of them should have come to eat too, but they noticed that Zhou Chen also After being here, I walked over directly.

Zhou Chen narrowed his eyes slightly but did not show too much hostility. After all, although the other party was also named Wang, Zhou Chen was still not sure that the other party was from the Wang family.

"Isn't this brother Zhou?" Leng Yiyao didn't know what happened to the three of them. She just thought that the other person was Zhou Chen's colleague and hurriedly asked the three of them to sit down.

The three of them did not show hostility in front of Leng Yiyao, but were very friendly and chatted with Zhou Chen. Zhou Chen also pretended that what happened in the morning had not happened, but talked and laughed with the three of them, although he did not believe the three of them in his heart. But it can't be shown on the face.

The meal was quite pleasant, nothing unpleasant happened, and Wang Wu paid the bill, and Zhou Chen did not refuse when he saw it.

Zhou Chen arrived at the Demon Suppressing Division much earlier in the morning of the second day. Team 19 had completed its tasks for this month, and there was no need to go to the task hall to pick tasks in the early morning. After the four of them met, they went directly to the hall master. Sign in.

Different from the past, this time the hall master had a task for the three of them. The content was that a sixth-grade herb Qingyun Guo had appeared deep in Wuhua Mountain in recent days, and the hall master asked them to bring it back.

According to the news, not only the hall leader, but other forces in Wu'an County have also targeted this beaded herb, so this mission is not easy.

Qinglongtang's team has either gone out on a mission, or is too weak to retrieve the herbal medicine. Now only his 19th team is left, so this matter is naturally left in their hands.

Of course, the hall master will not let them work in vain. If the task is completed, they will each receive ten merit points.

After hearing this, everyone excitedly raised their hands and said, "Don't worry, sir, I will definitely bring the things back."

Then Qin Hong took the three of them directly out of the Demon Suppression Division and rushed towards Wuhua Mountain. Although there was no specific location, judging from the news, Qingyun Fruit was on the third peak of Wuhua Mountain.

The three of them were very fast on their feet and soon arrived at the third peak of Wuhua Mountain. Although Wuhua Mountain was very close to Wu'an County, the third peak was very large and it was not easy to find a fruit tree here.

After going up the mountain, the four of them went to search separately. Qingyun Guo was not a particularly rare fruit tree. There was a picture of it in the book in the library. Before leaving, the four of them had seen his picture and knew what he looked like.

Zhou Chen chose a direction and started searching. Along the way, Zhou Chen found many traces of human walking on the mountain, which meant that many people had been on the mountain recently.

However, Zhou Chen was not careless. Although some places had been searched, Zhou Chen still checked them out personally.

Just an hour after Zhou Chen and the others went up the mountain, a team of four people also went up the mountain. Not only that, there was an animal that looked like a puppy leading the way.

Although it is a dog, this dog is an eighth-grade monster with a particularly sensitive nose, especially for spiritual herbs and elixirs. With this monster, they are sure to get the Qingyun Fruit in Nine Cities.

They don't have to search slowly like others when they go up the mountain. If there is a monster leading the way, they only need to follow him all the way. Although they haven't found the Qingyun Fruit yet, they have encountered a lot of ninth- and eighth-grade herbs.

However, they were still in their infancy and they did not pick them. At this time, Zhou Chen was following behind them secretly.

Zhou Chen wrapped himself with infuriating energy to prevent his breath from leaking out. Even if the other party had monsters specifically tracking it, they would not be able to detect Zhou Chen's presence.

Originally, Zhou Chen was still searching for himself, but after searching for a while, he became a little impatient. At this time, he happened to see a team of four, and Zhou Chen hurriedly hid. Originally, he just didn't want to conflict with the other party.

But when he accidentally saw that the monster found a herb, Zhou Chen had an idea, and that was to follow them. Zhou Chen could be sure that the four of them were also looking for the Qingyun Fruit.

After tracking along the way, Zhou Chen was more certain of his idea, because the four of them encountered a lot of herbs along the way, but they were too young and still in their infancy, so they did not pick them.

Only herbs that have grown would be picked by them. Zhou Chen followed them up the mountain, and the monster led them around the mountain until it got dark five hours later.

At this time, the monster brought them to the edge of a cliff. Zhou Chen, who was behind him, thought they were going to spend the night here. Suddenly, he discovered that several people were cutting branches, and then they used branches and ropes to build a simple rope ladder.

Zhou Chen wondered, "Did they find it?"

Then Zhou Chen gave up his plan to stay away from rest, and instead secretly passed by from the side. Because Zhou Chen only wrapped an extremely weak layer of zhenqi on the surface of his body, after five hours, he still had no zhenqi in his body. Most likely, if they really found something, Zhou Chen would be confident enough to snatch it away.

Zhou Chen went directly to a big tree on the edge of the cliff in the distance. With the help of the moonlight, Zhou Chen saw a fruit tree leaning on the cliff. The fruit tree didn't look big, but it had more than a dozen green fruits on it.

Although it was far away, Zhou Chen was still sure that this was the Qingyun Fruit. That thing was halfway up the cliff. Zhou Chen had synthesized the wind-controlling demon pattern before. Now he could not fly in the wind for a short time. At this time It's not a wise move to take action.

Zhou Chen waited patiently. The man in charge of picking soon came to the vicinity of the fruit tree. Just when he was excited to pick, a small green snake suddenly rushed out from the side and bit it directly. on the guy's neck.

After hearing a scream, the man fell directly from the rope ladder.
