I was reborn after playing a good hand badly

It took Su Mo less than an hour to pass the battle test, but when it came to the magic test, it was not so easy.

Thinking that she had the best and most confident grasp of weapon refining, she found the weapon refining test room and pushed the door open to enter.

"Should we start the weapon refining assessment?"

"Start." As soon as the words fell, changes suddenly occurred around Su Mo.

A five-layer stone platform appeared on one side of the room, on which were placed various materials, including minerals, monsters, plants, and so on.

Because it is a basic assessment, these are common materials. Su Mo needs to identify the source, property, and effect one by one, and then match five effective combinations from them. It only needs to be verified by the spirit of the weapon that the finished product can be refined. No other requirements are made.

Su Mo: "..."

After hearing the requirements, she moved her fingers. With such a high level of difficulty, was this a question that could be passed through a backdoor? Then what would be required for the normal assessment?

She walked forward silently and picked up a piece of ore in front of her to examine it. It was a black diamond-shaped ore with a hint of purple. What was it? She had never seen it in the catalogue Wensong had given her...

Looking around, there are five-story platforms and more than a hundred kinds of materials.

Su Mo shook his head and sighed, then asked into the air, "Is there a time limit for this assessment?"

"Three hours. The length of time it takes will also affect the quality of the final reward."

Three hours was the time for the translation. Su Mo looked at the rows of tables in front of her and felt that she couldn't do it, so she gave up without hesitation.

"Give me some time to read the book first, and then I'll take the test later."

"can."

The spirit of the weapon readily agreed to this request.

In a flash, everything disappeared. Su Mo knew that it was the spirit of the weapon that ended the illusion. She was too lazy to go out, so she sat down in the room and took out the book on weapon refining to cram for the exam. This book was also a textbook published by Lingyun Sect. She had to memorize it as soon as possible, memorize it...

bottom of the cliff.

After Xie Zhixing suggested finding a suitable path, the group split into two teams and began exploring to the left and right.

As the two teams were exploring in their respective directions, they saw some broken equipment along the way. Everyone could tell that these were things lost by the previous exploration team.

Ignoring those things, they continued exploring forward for an hour or so, and saw a corpse with a horrible death.

The temperature at the bottom of the cliff is relatively low, so the corpse is not seriously decomposed.

Suddenly seeing the tragic body of a colleague made everyone feel depressed.

Some people couldn't help but murmur.

"I was thinking that there might be more than just us falling down, but it turns out..."

"Yeah, maybe we are lucky to have gone to that place."

"Before, I felt that I was unlucky and was locked up, but now... ah."

"What should we do? Sister Chen, we have to do something, right?"

Chen Rong shook his head calmly. "What Xiao Xie said just now makes sense. The most important thing for us now is to go up and call for support as soon as possible. Otherwise, we can't save Xiao Su, and we can't take these teammates away. Keep going!"

Someone also said, “Yes, only if we can leave here can we take them back and bury them on Blue Star.”

Everyone was silent. Thinking that it was uncertain whether they could climb up successfully, no one said anything more.

There is no time to be sad for them, just keep moving forward.

The situation Xie Zhixing encountered was similar. A total of seven bodies were found on both sides along the way, making everyone more and more eager to leave here.

But there is no good news.

I didn't find a way to go around the mountain on either side, nor did I find a more suitable cliff to climb. They all looked the same.

The teams that had explored in both directions returned to their starting points. After exchanging information, everyone didn't want to delay any further.

"Since they are all the same, there is nothing to be picky about. Let's start from here." Xie Zhixing took off his backpack and put it aside and began to observe.

Although the cliff was very steep, it still had a certain slope and was uneven, so climbing it was not a problem at all. Their biggest obstacle was the strong wind.

They didn't know why the bottom of the cliff was not hit by the strong wind, but everyone who fell down knew how strong the strong wind was above. If they didn't think of a way to deal with it, there was no way they could climb up.

It would be fine if they were in a lower place, but if they fell down halfway through climbing, they would follow in the footsteps of those colleagues who fell to their death.

"We fell down before because we were caught off guard. Let's keep an eye out when we climb up. Should be okay?"

"How can it be okay? Is there any use in paying more attention? Who among us has the strength to hold on and withstand it?"

"Oh, this is really a big trouble."

"I don't know why, but the bottom of this cliff is not affected by the strong wind at all..."

"What should we do now? We can't just keep waiting, right?"

"We have consumed more than half of the food we brought. We can't wait any longer..."

While everyone was talking, Xie Zhixing suddenly started to rummage through his backpack. His movements attracted the attention of other colleagues, and they watched him take something out from a secret pocket at the bottom of the backpack.

It is a long, thin object with a loop on one end large enough for a rope to pass through.

Xie Zhixing shook the small prop in his hand.

"We'll slowly climb up, using this fixed rope along the way."

After seeing this, Yang Xiuqi and others also searched their backpacks, and sure enough, they all had the stuff in their bags.

This was a backup prop prepared for them by the base. It could help them stabilize their bodies and take a short rest under the cliff, but almost no one used it.

There were more than 170 in everyone's backpacks, which was enough.

The association's ropes are all of uniform standard, and both ends of each rope can be connected to other ropes or other equipment. Many equipment produced by the association have the same type of connecting buckles.

Someone frowned and said, "But even if all of our ropes were tied together, they wouldn't be long enough."

Wang Zhen's eyes rolled. "No, there are more than just us. There are several ropes at the bottom of the cliff."

As soon as he said that, everyone thought of their dead colleagues. If they collected their equipment together, it would be almost done.

Xie Zhixing decided, "That's it. I'll go collect them and have a look later."

Chen Rong sighed softly, "This is the only way to go for now. Even if it's still a little short, we can adapt to the situation later."

"Okay, let's get started after we eat."

Everyone started to divide the work, some discussed the details of the climb, some organized the food, some set up the tents, and everyone was busy.

Although everyone wanted to leave as soon as possible, the cliff was so high and the wind was unpredictable, so everyone knew that the return journey would not be smooth.

After replenishing their energy, everyone started to move.

Xie Zhixing was ready. He stretched his body and said, "Who among us has trained before? Those who have trained before will go first. I'll go first."

Chen Rong and Wang Jianfeng from the Yinzhou branch also stood up. They had also undergone body training once, but the others had not.

"Okay, I'll go first, and you guys take over."
