chased by zombies all the way here, we could have made a grand entrance."Everyone: So you were the one who said the other side could hear!Though the two people stood before the Eagle Wing, their gaze...Didn't you find the space button

Xinghe immediately retorted.

"We found that this space button only has supplies, no missions."

Xiong Jian scratched his head and then spoke honestly.

What are you planning to do tomorrow

Ripple smiled and asked.

"Your mission is difficult, so why don't the five of us join you and complete it together"

Xiong Jian had already discussed this with his companions, so he blurted out.

Did you guys plan this

Everyone agrees.

Bear Jian grinned foolishly and said.

“It’s not impossible, but you should also see that in our team I’m the captain. To complete the assessment mission together, we need to follow my command and there can’t be two captains with two different voices.”

"This"

"You don't have to reply right now. There's still an evening for you to think it over. Just let me know before you leave tomorrow, after you've discussed it among yourselves."

The ripples smiled and said.

This time, Xiong Jian didn't refuse and took his companions aside to discuss.

"Ripples, they must have seen our strength, so they followed us. Maybe we can get some good results from them."

Xinghe lowered his voice.

"It's okay, we definitely can't let them get away with free-riding. Besides, how well the task is completed is up to the examiners to judge. Besides, the task we were given was already difficult, and having some extra help wouldn't hurt."

"That's right, more helpers always mean more help. Beastmen also have their own advantages. When it comes to direct confrontations, they are definitely stronger than us."

Kouki has always been straightforward and honest in her words.

"Kouki-neesan is right."

Qing Xuan was the first to speak. She knew her weaknesses very well.

Six people once again reached a consensus and, with the warming function activated on their clothes, they went to sleep.

Ripple, being poor, didn't have fancy clothes. So the whirlwind enlarged its form to encircle Ripple, keeping her safe and warm as she slept in the middle. The whirlwind even pricked up its ears, ready to alert her immediately if anything unusual happened.

On the other side, the airship brought back injured personnel and students who withdrew from the assessment to the academy safely. The injured received treatment, and the withdrawn students were taken for questioning about their specific situations.

Meanwhile, Rand also arrived at the assessment planet. He was really uneasy and, bringing people with him, began a second round of inspections on the assessment star. There couldn't be another similar incident again.

But he was still a step too late.

After a good night's sleep, everyone woke up and cooked fish head soup with a root vegetable found by the humanoids. After eating, they tidied up and headed toward their destination.

Before breakfast, Xiong Jian made it clear to Lian Yi that they were willing to follow orders, but Lian Yi couldn't use them as cannon fodder. Otherwise, they would withdraw from the mission automatically. Lian Yi agreed to this.

Everyone sets off again. Zilin, following her master's orders, is searching for obvious landmarks, so their pace is a bit slow. However, everyone is very patient because this is only the second day of the assessment.

The transformed humans took advantage of their strengths, cooperating with several star beasts to ambush a herd of snow deer on the road. This replenished everyone's food supply, ensuring they wouldn't need to gather more for the short term. However, they also failed to find any spatial buttons since then.

On this day, besides encountering a herd of snow deer, they did not encounter any other dangers or meet the same companions who were participating in the assessment again.

And the direction they were heading was becoming increasingly desolate. While there were still some patches of green vegetation before, now not only is the green vegetation decreasing, but the water sources have also disappeared.

"Qing Xuan, is the direction Zi Lin is heading in correct"

Xing He couldn't help but ask.

"Purple scales never get lost."

Qingxuan is very confident in his purple scales.

Since we were on the right track, everyone continued to move forward. We walked for another day until the afternoon of the third day, when Zi Lin brought back a piece of news.

"Ripples, Zi Lin said he found a man injured and unconscious."

Qing Xuan hugged Zi Lin and immediately told Lian Yi about the news.

"Are you sure you're taking the same exam as us"

Ripple frowned.

"I'm not sure."

Qingxuan shook his head.

"There are quite a few students in the top hundred, and we don't know everyone."

Kouki explained.

If the Wan Yi is a trap, then things will be bad. This time, Sui Yu, I'll have to rely on you. You hide and get close to check the situation. If something unexpected happens, send a signal. If you recognize anyone there, send us a message.

As the captain, Lianyi definitely needs to play to her strengths.

"No problem! You guys stay here and wait for my good news."

Sui Yu readily agreed and then several of them dashed towards the coordinates that Qing Xuan had given him.

Everyone waited silently, and after a moment Sui Yu sent back a message:

"Captain, this person is indeed injured and requires immediate medical attention. Otherwise, there is a danger to their life. Also, nothing unusual has been found in the surrounding area. You can arrange for someone to come over."

"Captain, I have a first-aid kit here. I'll take the wounded back with my team and have Sui Yu keep watch."

Xiong Jian immediately stood up and said.

"Okay, be careful."

Ripple instructed Bear Sword to act, then she was silent.

After everyone else left, Kouki finally spoke:

"What's going on It was Dragon's Breath Grass before, and now there are seriously injured people. This assessment is way too dangerous!"

Ripple also frowned. On the side, Gan Yun had long since released Ao Xiang to hover and keep watch in the air. He also spoke:

"I think there must have been a problem with the assessment on Star's side, otherwise no one should have been seriously injured. This was just an assessment, not a life-or-death battle."

"Don't panic, everyone. We can't act rashly right now. Let's wait for rescue and then we'll talk. Even if something really goes wrong, our AI can't contact the outside world. We need to figure out the situation first and then think of a way to notify the academy. We also need to be prepared for self-rescue."

Ripples warned the people present.

The atmosphere was a bit heavy, but everyone nodded in understanding.

"Maybe we're just scaring ourselves. Don't panic."

The Star River immediately soothed him.

"Look, they're back."

Immediately, someone spoke up from the Beastmen side. Then everyone saw Xiong Jian and another Beastman guarding either side of the emergency chamber as they ran this way. No one saw Sui Yu's figure.

Only after both parties had gathered did Sui Yu dispel their invisibility, appearing before everyone's eyes.

What's going on

Ripple asked.

"This person was injured by an ability, their body is a mess. The emergency pod only temporarily keeps them alive. To get out of danger, they must be sent back for rescue as soon as possible."

Bear Jian immediately replied.

Can he speak

The person has fallen into a deep coma.

Su Yu shook her head regretfully.

What next

Everyone looked toward the ripples.

Ripples peered through the transparent cover of the emergency cabin, gazing at the injured person's face, and immediately asked:

"Does he have anything on him that could identify him"

"There's nothing, the smart wristband isn't around, and the space button is empty too."

Another beastman who went with Xiong Jian said.again.Most of what Lian Yi said is true, only the last sentence is a lie.The female officer nodded at Lance after hearing this, indicating that what Ripples said matched the surveillance footage.Lans...
