Chapter 508 Summer Practice
In fact, with the current development level of psychic science and technology in Wancheng Kingdom, many technological products should be invented by people as a matter of course.

However, out of Zhou Ming's expectation, Zhang Shanhe died 25 years ago in his previous life, and the technology of Wancheng Kingdom is indeed more developed.

But many things did not come out in a logical way.

For example, the electromagnetic wave telegraph has been invented, but the psionic wave telegraph has never been invented.

There are video cameras and gramophones, but movies, which can be done simply by tinkering, have not yet come out.

In other walks of life, there are situations where the technology tree is not complete.

Only the alchemy industry and the equipment industry have made considerable progress after the death of Zhang Shanhe in the previous life, but the production capacity and efficiency have not improved much, and the prices of various low-cost elixirs have not changed significantly.

Some elixirs even raised their prices.

This is not what Zhou Ming wants to see.

It also shows that after Zhang Shanhe's death, the main high-level officials of Wancheng Kingdom did not fully implement the line he set, and made adjustments privately.

But this is also very normal. Only a small number of people can keep their original intentions unchanged. After the death of a great figure, some selfishness will arise among the successors, and some careerists, conspirators, and even special interest groups will appear, which cannot be avoided.

At least for now, the country is generally healthy, and it is far from the point where Zhou Ming feels that it is about to end.

And in the blink of an eye, the first semester of the college gradually came to an end.

Summer vacation is coming soon.

After the final examinations, the two-month summer vacation was not easy for the students.

Because the college has arranged summer practice activities, each student is required to complete as much as possible, and finally, different contribution points will be issued according to the completion status.

For example, you can choose to serve in the Lingyuan Fleet. During the two-month service period, depending on your performance, you can get 100-500 contribution points.

For example, you can join the trade escort team and participate in business exchanges with foreign continents. If you complete the task well, you can not only get rich rewards, but also get 300-1000 contribution points.

However, the danger of joining the trade escort team is relatively high, and the requirements for students' cultivation are also high. Generally, only students above the third grade are eligible to apply.

Practical activities suitable for first- and second-year students are some domestic tasks such as eradicating evil cultivators, assisting in arresting criminals, investigating mysterious events, etc... Some are more dangerous, some are more difficult to complete, and some are extremely simple .

For example, eradicating a group of bandits outside a certain village, catching a criminal who fled to a certain city, etc... Sending a few students may easily solve the problem.

However, there are also some practical activities. After students participated in them, they were either killed brutally or disappeared mysteriously.

This kind of practice, which students call "death practice", has a very high mortality rate.

Naturally, he also avoided it, no matter how high the reward was.

On the summer practice task panel, Zhou Ming looked at the task marked in red at the top with a thoughtful expression on his face.

"Serial Murder Case of the Phantom Formation in the Ancient Temple of Yongshui Village, Bilan City"

This quest is about a strange ancient temple outside Yongshui Village, which is a subsidiary of Orchid City. This ancient temple is usually fine, but every year on July 30, when the sun disappears and the sky and the earth are dark, this quest An ancient temple will turn into a phantom array, luring passers-by within a radius of tens of miles into the array, and finally disappear.

After a period of time, around the ancient temple, the bones of the missing people will be found sporadically.

It is said that this ancient temple has a history of more than a hundred years and has killed countless passers-by. It is a famous "violent place" in the local area.

Daxian College once sent students there to assist the National Special Operations Bureau in the investigation, but the three groups of people they sent all disappeared without a trace.

In order to avoid greater losses, the college had to mark this task as a red dangerous task. Students can take this task, but the main content has become "exploration" and "assisting the special operations team to set up a cordon to prevent others from entering." , the danger of the task is significantly reduced, and after the task is completed, the contribution points that can be obtained are also about 500.

Even so, few students dared to take up the task.

Because this ancient temple is very evil, the phantom array it releases can be large or small, sometimes covering five miles, sometimes up to fifty miles, and once people are enveloped by the phantom formation, if they can't wake up in time before dawn, they will be completely dead in the end. Disappeared in the illusion...

So it is this ancient temple that has caused the country to lose more than 50 public officials, but it has never been able to solve the mystery of the murder in the ancient temple.

However, Zhou Ming wants to challenge this practical task that everyone is talking about and find out.

After learning about his idea, the students all froze, and then stopped them one after another.

"Squad leader, this is a practice of death, you must think carefully about it!"

"Squad leader, I have a mission to strangle man-eating beasts, and I'm still short of one man. Why don't you form a team with me, as long as we kill the beasts, we can all get 800 contribution points."

"Squad leader, it's not bad to serve in the Lingyuan Fleet. Although the contribution points are a little less, the task is easy and you can enjoy the beautiful scenery of some places."

Of course, Zhou Ming knew the kindness of the students and expressed his gratitude.

But he was really interested in the task of "Murder in the Ancient Temple".

Not only because the contribution points reward for this mission is very high, 1 points...if the mystery can be completely solved.

In addition, he also found a lot of interesting doubts through some materials.

Moreover, that ancient temple is across the main traffic road, and the number of people killed by the phantom formation in the past hundred years is close to [-].

According to the introduction of some evil exercises, this is a number that can cause a qualitative change...

He was going to try it.

In addition, the three-year contract is coming soon, and there is a martial arts competition waiting for him in Bilan City. This summer vacation, he has to complete this martial arts competition.

So you can complete the practical task of "Murder in the Ancient Temple" along the way.

Of course, the staffing required for this task is at least 4 people, and Zhou Ming still needs to find a few partners.

Two girls in the class expressed their willingness to go with the monitor, but Zhou Ming declined their offer.

He has a partner who cooperates more tacitly.

Chen En, Lei Zuo and Lei You brothers, Zhang Yu...the four of them all joined Zhou Ming's practical tasks.

Even though they knew it was an extremely dangerous death mission, they didn't feel any fear.

On the contrary, he is eager to try.

Chen En said with a look of hope: "1 contribution points, five people get one point, and each person can get 2000 points."

The role of college contribution points is very great (it can be used in common with national contribution points). The higher the contribution points, the better the exercises and cheats that can be borrowed in the library, such as special medicines, advanced instruments, and spiritual guns. Purchases also require contribution points to reach a certain amount, and will be consumed.

For example: if students want to buy the Yukong suit, the college contribution points must be more than 1000 points, 2000% off for more than 1 points, 1% off for more than [-] points... If there is no contribution point, then I can only buy those second-hand and third-hand old Yukong suits, and it is difficult to buy brand-new ones with money.

As for this mission, why Chen En was so confident that he would be able to solve the mystery of "Murder in the Ancient Temple", but he didn't know why.

Perhaps... it was his trust in the boss, which had reached an incomparably blind level.

Not only him, but also Lei Zuo Lei You, Zhang Yu and the others.

6 month 28 number.

A school holiday day.

East of Zhenlin City.

Thousands of miles of clear sky, a thousand meters above the sky.

A group of monks wearing royal suits flew eastward at high speed in the formation of "people".

The cultivator flying at the front wore a very gorgeous royal air suit with smooth lines, and the white mist that was pulled out during the flight, with a graceful posture like an iron man, flew at an extremely fast speed.

Gradually distanced themselves from the four people behind.

"Boss, fly slower, we can't keep up."

Chen En's voice came from the intercom.

"Boss, we have been flying for more than two hours, and we have flown three or four thousand miles, and our soul power has been consumed a lot. Let's go down and rest for a while."

"Boss, I can't hold on anymore."

Brother Lei Zuo and Lei You said.

"Okay, go down and rest for a while."

Zhou Ming slowed down, found a hill with a gentle slope, and landed.

Chen En and others fell beside him one after another.

"Boss, you are using the best ninth-generation Yukong suit, we are using modified second-hand, you fly fast and save effort, we can only chase desperately, do you think this is fair?"

Pulling off the flexible mask on his face, Chen En, who was drenched in sweat, complained.

You must know that flying in the sky suit, at high speed, not only has to overcome the huge air resistance, but also consumes a lot of soul power. After a long time, it consumes a lot of physical and mental energy, which is very hard.

"Chen En can't say that. The boss of our Yukong suit has helped to modify it, and the performance is not inferior to the brand new one. The money to buy these suits was also lent to us by the boss."

Zhang Yu said that she was quite dissatisfied with Chen En's complaint.

Brother Lei Zuo and Lei You also said: "It's not that the Yukong suit is bad, it's because our cultivation is not as good as the boss's."

Chen En hurriedly smiled: "I'm too tired, I'm complaining, boss, don't mind."

"It's okay, I just took care of myself and flew."

Zhou Ming, who didn't have any sweat on his face, said with a smile, now that he is an immortal, after wearing the Yukong suit, he can fly happily and unrestrainedly. This feeling of flying freely is unprecedented (and very short).

So now he enjoys this feeling very much.

Immortal feeling.

　It will be plain without routines, but there will be a wave of plot next
