Chapter 684 – 463 Points
A rank 7 Sky Fighter required 100 million points? Could anyone really achieve that? No wonder even a general like Lei Junze said that a rank 7 Sky Fighter was a big shot.
“Then what kind of person can become a rank 7 Sky Fighter? What kind of mission would he have to complete?” Lan Xuanyu asked in surprise.
Yan Ruoting said, “They should all be heroes who have saved the Federation I guess. I don’t know the details, but Sky Fighters at the seventh rank and above are top secrets of the Federation. Anyway, I know that your Shrek Academy definitely has such an existence.”
Lan Xuanyu’s heart stirred. Shrek Academy had a rank 7 Sky Fighter? Could it be a G.o.d-rank elite like Pavilion Master w.a.n.g?
Lei Junze’s suggestion was deeply ingrained in his mind. When he returned, he would prioritize increasing his Sky Fighter rank. He remembered that after spending points for increasing his rank in the academy, he could still exchange for resources! Why did Lei Junze say that he couldn’t exchange for any more items after increasing his Sky Fighter rank? What was going on? Did he remember wrongly? Or…
He had to clarify this when he returned. He clearly remembered Xiao Qi telling them that they could exchange for emblems!
After completing the exchange, Lan Xuanyu told his teammates about the ratio in the Exchange Center, allowing them to understand the difficulty of obtaining points and their use.
There was no doubt that after hearing his words, everyone was in high spirits and couldn’t wait to continue the mission.
A few teams went out. Other than Lan Xuanyu who remained in the fortress and was ready to provide support at any time, Bai Xiuxiu, Lan Mengqin, and the rest had also set off with a team. They all had Sky Wing mechas, and not only could they a.s.sist other teams at any time, but they could also turn into s.p.a.ce fighters and carry their teammates as they flew quickly.
After gaining a deeper understanding of the Proto Dragons, their method of hunting had changed.
Their Sky Wings immediately transformed into a fighter. Then, a few team members flew in the air to look for the Proto Dragons. When they found one, they would immediately land and attack. After killing it, they would look for another again.
With the Sky Wing searching for the Proto Dragons, their speed was naturally much faster. The only potential source of trouble was to avoid overly strong Proto Dragons.
They needed enough people to deal with rank six and above, as well as Lan Xuanyu, Tang Yuge, Yuanen Huihui, Bai Xiuxiu, and other powerful people.
After the Proto Dragon Tide, the number of Proto Dragons had decreased drastically. At least near the base, they didn’t encounter any strong Proto Dragons, and even rank 6 were rarely seen. Most of them were low-grade and mid-grade Proto Dragons.
In the next few days, everything went very smoothly. Lan Xuanyu didn’t even go out to provide support. He stayed behind for his mission—to refine the Proto Dragon Ores.
There was a place in the Proto Dragon Planet base that specialized in refining Proto Dragon Ore. After all, if they carried all of the Proto Dragons’ corpses, it would occupy too much s.p.a.ce.
Proto Dragon Ore was only produced in Proto Dragon Planet, so most of the Sky Fighters who carried out missions here would bring some back. It was fine to keep it as a memento or use it to make soul devices or Battle Armors.
The Proto Dragon Ore was very good for fusing all sorts of metals because its metal element was able to harmonize different types of metals that would reject each other.
Lan Xuanyu gave it a try. When he added Proto Dragon Ore during the Fuse Forging process, his success rate would increase greatly. This was definitely a pleasant surprise.
He had obtained too many Proto Dragon corpses, to the extent that he had been occupying the whole extraction center of the base for the past few days. Lei Junze had indeed taken good care of him and allowed him to use it. Of course, he still had to pay for it, and he had to pay for it with the refined Proto Dragon Ore.
Hence, during these eight days, Lan Xuanyu was busy refining. The Proto Dragons that his teammates killed in the wild would be gathered together. After they gathered to a certain extent, Lan Xuanyu would go out again and retrieve the corpses to refine them.
In the next few days, their days were very fulfilling. Everyone was practically working without sleep or rest. They would have plenty of time to rest later and the journey back would take so long on the s.p.a.cecraft. If they were tired, they would meditate for a while and continue fighting after recovering.
Very soon, eight days had pa.s.sed and the Star War Experiment cla.s.s had exchanged another batch of Dragon Crystals.
In these eight days, everyone had gone all out. Most importantly, after their first day of battle, they were familiar with the Proto Dragons and knew that although these creatures were not weak, they had low intelligence and it wasn’t too difficult to hunt them.
However, the next few days, they were mainly low-grade and mid-grade Proto Dragons. Although they had hunted over a thousand, the points they exchanged were less than 4,000. There were too few rank 4 and above Proto Dragons.
Even so, everyone got another 133 points.
Before they left, Lan Xuanyu distributed the points among them. All the students had received 463 points in the end. This was the final harvest of their mission.
When they left, Lei Junze, who was the commander-in-chief of the base, personally sent them off and boarded the s.p.a.cecraft.
“Xuanyu ah! Kid, don’t forget our promise. I’m waiting for you. It’s not just you, if anyone in your cla.s.s doesn’t get into the Inner Court, my doors here are wide open. Call me if there’s anything. I’ll pay for the interstellar communication fees.” Lei Junze chuckled.
Lan Xuanyu smiled bitterly. “Uncle Lei, don’t jinx us! Our goal is to get everyone into the Inner Court.”
Lei Junze laughed. “Good, you have ambition. I’m also looking forward to seeing you guys create a miracle. You guys are also welcome to come back to Proto Dragon Planet anytime. The next time you come, Uncle will bring you guys to fight a rank 9 Proto Dragon. 3,000 points for one. If I remember correctly, it should be a rank 5 Sky Fighter mission. However, it is very difficult to find a rank 9 Proto Dragon and they have many underlings.”
“Sure! When we have our Two-Word Battle Armor, we will definitely come and give it a try.” Lan Xuanyu smiled.
Rank nine Proto Dragon? A rank eight had already left him with a deep lesson. Before their team had an eight-ring Soul Douluo, he would never consider such a thing. Although 3,000 points was tempting, their life was more important!
After bidding farewell to Lei Junze, Yan Ruoting led the team and they returned together.
On the s.p.a.cecraft, it was still the same people who had arrived with them. Due to the Proto Dragon Tide, everyone’s mission was completed, and there were no signs of a Sky Fighter dying. The only difference was that the way the other Sky Fighters looked at these young people from Shrek Academy had completely changed.
How was this a group of children? They were simply a group of existences that were even more terrifying than the Proto Dragons. They had even killed a rank 8 Proto Dragon, and among the youths that appeared to be 16 or 17 years old, there was actually a Soul Sage. More importantly, the individual strength of these Shrek Academy students could not be judged by their rank at all. They were far stronger than soul masters of the same rank. Just what sort of nurturing did Shrek Academy have to produce existences like them!
To most people, Shrek Academy was extremely mysterious. They only recruited a small number of students every year and each student was undoubtedly a one in a million genius. These geniuses were then systematically groomed. Hence, even Outer Court students would receive considerable attention when they entered society.
They were all Sky Fighters, but why was the difference so huge?
The people from Shrek Academy could no longer feel the others’ gazes. They released all the fatigue they had acc.u.mulated over the past ten days. The moment the s.p.a.cecraft stabilized, they all entered a meditative state.
A Sky Fighter mission was a real combat mission. This operation had a different degree of growth for each of them.
After 10 days in the Sky Fighter Division’s high-speed s.p.a.cecraft, when the s.p.a.cecraft returned to the Mother Planet and Shrek City, everyone felt as if it was a lifetime ago.
