Doomsday Totem

Chapter 131 Essence
Ares Temple, also known as the God of War Hall, is located in the center of the Central Silver City Military Academy, where students receive tasks and exchange equipment.She and the Odin Temple of the Northern Military Academy, the Hunter Temple (Artemis Temple) of the Archimedes Institute of Technology, and the Fire Pirate Temple (Prometheus God) of the Plane and Star Sea Traveler Academy Temple), and known as the four academic temples.

For a long time, due to the Central Silver City Military Academy's leading position in the academy alliance, and the fact that it completes the most academy tasks every year.Therefore, the Temple of Ares is also known as the first of the four temples.

Half an hour later, Tie Slag and Bai Xiaoyun came to the foot of a low mountain on the middle line of the college.Looking up, there is a huge ancient Greek temple built on the dwarf hill.

The temple has a rectangular structure with a beam-column architectural style. It is more than [-] meters high by visual inspection, and the outer ring is a huge stone pillar.To put it simply, it is a large stone slab on top of rectangular stone pillars.

Bai Xiaoyun introduced as he walked that the interior of the Ares Hall is very spacious, with an area of ​​about [-] square meters, which is equivalent to three standard football fields.It is divided into several areas, the two largest areas are the mission hall and the credit exchange hall.In addition, there are rest halls, mecha simulation training halls, temporary conference halls, team assembly halls and other areas.

As he listened, Tie Slag suddenly remembered whether he would meet any acquaintances here, and immediately interjected to ask whether people from the student union would come here for activities.Without even thinking about it, Bai Xiaoyun said that those in the student union were all high-ranking officials and nobles, and they would only send their subordinates over to handle errands, and rarely came directly.Hearing this news, Tie Zha breathed a sigh of relief, he didn't want to meet You Ge or Mu Yu Linglan here.Of course, his clothing, appearance, and temperament have all changed a lot now.Even standing in front of them, they may not be able to recognize it.

Chatting and chatting, the two walked up the stone steps all the way up the mountain, and soon came to the open space in front of the temple.The front entrance is a set of huge glass doors.At this time, the glass doors were all open outwards.Standing at the door, you can feel the air-conditioning blowing in your face, very refreshing and cool.Then, they entered the interior of the temple through the glass door.

Standing at the door and looking inward, the hall is covered with water-polished marble, the surface is as smooth as a mirror, reflecting the bright lights above.Huge copper chandeliers hung from the high ceiling.Each chandelier has hundreds of small hanging basins, and tiny light bulbs are installed in the hanging basins, exuding orange-red, flame-like light.Looking around, the stone pillars in the hall are carved with fine patterns, and there are large oil paintings hanging on the walls.Looking around, the decoration of the entire hall is simple and heavy, and it seems to have a very long history.

After entering the door, Bai Xiaoyun walked to the left with Iron Slag, and explained that to the left was the mission hall, to the right was the exchange center, and to the inside was the rest area and other areas.

After a while, Tie Slag followed Bai Xiaoyun into a semicircular hall.I saw huge display screens hanging on the curved wall of the hall, with various information jumping on it.There are people coming and going here, and most of them are students from the clothes.Some of them stood in front of the display screen and pointed, some whispered in groups, and the whole hall seemed very lively.

Bai Xiaoyun brought Iron Slag to the mission area of ​​life.Iron Slag has excellent eyesight and can see the words on the screen from a distance.He found a slightly vacant place and looked carefully.

"You still wear glasses with such good eyesight?" Bai Xiaoyun squatted aside and asked.At this distance, he couldn't read the information on the screen clearly.

Tie Slag raised his glasses and said that he was not "nearsighted" but "hyperopic".But he was sweating in his heart, and he didn't pay attention for a while, almost revealing that he was wearing flat glasses, just to cover up his identity.

Bai Xiaoyun suddenly realized and nodded.Iron Slag ignored him, and continued to look at the screen instead.

I saw on the screen above:

[Task number: 3712s01][Publisher: Police of the third district of workers][Task description: Dr3712-08-20, the police found a female corpse in the dormitory of the Ninth Precision Instrument Processing Factory. It was preliminarily determined to be a love homicide, and the suspect has been locked Five, there is currently a lack of actual evidence, and the murderer cannot be identified] [Task objective: assist the police in collecting evidence] [Requirements: Human Anatomy (Senior), Clinical Medicine (Advanced), Social Psychology (Advanced)] [Credit Reward: 3 point]
[Task number: 3712s02][Publisher: Ms. Siranpur][Task description: Dr3712-08-30, Ms. Siranpur’s cat is lost. Please help this poor old professor to find companionship and loneliness for her Pets in Old Age][Mission Objective: Find the lost cat, or the corpse][Required Condition: None][Credit Reward: 1 point]
[Task Number: 3712s03][Publisher: Exchange Center][Task Description: Dr3712-09-2, there is a plant called "Yuanshan White Tea" growing in the mountains in the northern part of the Far East Continent. The Exchange Center needs a batch of high-quality white tea for the students to exchange] [mission objective: transport 100 kilograms of distant mountain white tea back to the exchange center within three months] [necessary condition: pay a deposit of 95 gold coins] [credit reward: [-] points]
……

Seeing this, Tie Slag lowered his head and asked Bai Xiaoyun, what is the concept of 80 credits.Bai Xiaoyun said the value of 800 to 1000 gold coins.Tie Slag pointed to the third task and asked Bai Xiaoyun to take a look.

Bai Xiaoyun went forward to look at it for a while, then came back and said that this kind of task could not be accepted.The market value of 1100 kilograms of Yuanshan white tea is 500 gold, and it costs 600 to [-] gold to buy directly from the Far East.Most of the mountainous areas in the Far East can only be walked on foot, and the purchase of white tea requires walking from one mountain village to another. Even if everything goes well, after deducting the principal and expenses, it may not be possible to earn much.

After the analysis, Bai Xiaoyun pointed to the third task and said that you can try the task of finding a cat.Tie Slag shook his head, saying that it was only 1 point, not interested, and the college is so big, where can I find a lost cat.Besides, if this task was easy to complete, it would have been picked up long ago.

After speaking, Tie Slag continued to look at the big screen, searching for a suitable task for him.Looking at it, a piece of information caught his attention.

[Task number: 3712s21][Publisher: Yugo Lombard][Task description: Dr3712-09-2, according to ancient records, at the end of the world in the north and in the homeland of the forgotten in the south, there is a species called "" The shrub of "Icefield Red", its fruit can be used to brew "Ice Crystal Fruit Wine"][Mission Objective: Bring back a sample of "Icefield Red" and the method of brewing Ice Crystal Fruit Wine within one year][Required Conditions: None][Credit Reward: 3000 points]
Tie Slag stared at the reward of 3000 points with wide eyes, and subconsciously scratched his hair.He can really complete this task.At this moment, there are three small bottles of ice crystal fruit wine in Red Comet's storage box.As for the brewing method, let alone.When he was in the temple, he and Kezan brewed three large barrels, which are still slowly fermented in the cellar.

3000 credits, this is a huge amount of money, a huge amount that has never been seen before.

At this moment, he suddenly thought that Yu Ge is a member of the temple!This means that those who know how to make ice crystal fruit wine are likely to be descendants of the Temple of Brilliance.This task may be a trap!Thinking of this, he remembered that the day he first came to the academy, he gave Qin Keer a small glass of ice crystal fruit wine, and he broke out in a cold sweat.

In case Qin Ke'er and You Ge get in touch and accidentally talk about it...

But after thinking about it, this possibility is too low, they are not from the same world at all, and the possibility of contact is almost non-existent.After figuring this out, Iron Slag heaved a sigh of relief and continued to browse down.After a while, he gave up. There is no suitable task for him here. Either the conditions are too harsh, or the reward is too little and the task is too difficult.

Next, Tie Slag pulled Bai Xiaoyun to the other side to check the "reconnaissance" tasks.The narration of investigative tasks is very different from that of life tasks. There is no publisher, no specific description, and no task requirements, only the target and location.

[Task number: 3712z01][Task objective: Sample of the white shark in the Nether Sea][Location: Western waters of the Nether Sea][Credit reward: 80 points]
[Task number: 3712z02][Task target: Stinger sample][Location: Dark jungle in the central continent][Credit reward: 65 points]
[Task number: 3712z03][Task target: Ultralisk sample][Location: Dark jungle in the central continent]Credit reward: 160 points]
[Task number: 3712z03][Task target: Corpse dogs, skinned crawler samples][Location: Central part of the southern continent]Credit reward: 55 points]
……

Tie Slag looked at it for a long time and found that he couldn't understand it at all.He has never been to these places, and he knows nothing about these mutant creatures.At this time, he remembered what Huang Yu said that if he wanted to do investigative missions, he could join someone else's team.

Searching the lobby, he found an information screen about the team.

……

Seeing this information, Tie Slag couldn't help asking: "It's impossible for these people in the Student Union to be short of money, why do they still have to do tasks?"

Bai Xiaoyun said that the main purpose of these people is to form their own team and test the fit of the team through the experience of tasks.

Hearing this, Tie Slag finally understood.Before that, he had been wondering why the Central Silver City Military Academy was known as the cradle of future leadership.

When all the clues came together, like a flood breaking through a dam, it broke through many obstacles and allowed him to see the essence of the world clearly.

It wasn't until this moment that he truly understood the meaning of the academy.

There are two kinds of people here, one is people with resources and status, and the other is people with ability...
