Bankruptcy beast.

Jiang Chen looked back and saw a familiar figure running towards him.

"Yue Buzhi?"

Jiang Chen was a little surprised, but he understood after seeing the competition certificate hanging around the opponent's neck.

"Are you coming to participate in the evaluation competition too?"

Yue Buzhi is a student of Ivy League University. He was selected to participate in joint exercises among colleges and universities before. His strength is still good, at least he is stronger than most people.

But when I came to participate in the evaluation competition, I still felt a little bit behind.

"How is that possible? My dear friend, you think too highly of me."

Yue Buzhi waved his hand and said, "I'm here as a support staff member, so it won't be my turn in the official evaluation competition."

"I think so too."

Jiang Chen nodded slightly, but Yue Buzhi, who originally wanted to be humble, his face fell.

"My benefactor, please comfort me at least."

"Hmm... try harder next time?"

"Forget it, just pretend I didn't say it."

Yue Buzhi sighed helplessly, but soon regained his energy and said excitedly: "My dear friend, you must be here to participate in the evaluation competition, right? It's a team battle, I remember you are from the journalism department and you can't participate in the individual competition. .”

Speaking of this, Yue Buzhi felt a little regretful and said, "It's a pity. Otherwise, with your strength, I would have achieved good results."

"it's the same."

Jiang Chen smiled slightly and said, "What are you planning to do?"

"There's nothing wrong. I'm just going out to buy some supplies in case I need them."

"My dear friend, you have just finished your report. How about I take you for a walk around?"

Yue Buzhi patted his chest and said, "We came here very early and are very familiar with this place!"

"That would be perfect."

Wen Quan hasn't replied yet, Master Yan has also run away, and Xiao Zhe has gone to familiarize himself with the place. He is not familiar with the place and the place, so it would be best if someone familiar can lead the way.

"Let's go, let's take advantage of the fact that it's still early. I'll take my benefactor for a walk outside the school first."

With that said, Yue Buzhi took Jiang Chen and walked outside the campus.

"Yue Buzhi, you just said that you came here very early. Is the team from Ivy League University here?"

Jiang Chen asked.

"That's right, it's not just Ivy League universities, many colleges and universities come here right after the winter vacation and start adapting to the venue early."

Yue Buzhi nodded and said: "The individual competition may be better. The team competition focuses on cooperation, so it takes some time to adapt."

"Speaking of which, my dear friend, why did you set off so late? Is there something that delayed you?"

As he said that, Yue Buzhi suddenly remembered something and said, "Why do I remember that my dear friend, you never joined the actual combat club? Did you change jobs?"

"No, it just annexed the actual combat club."

Jiang Chen shook his head and suddenly saw a familiar sign and walked over immediately.

"Annexation?"

Yue Buzhi was stunned for a long time before he came to his senses.

"You actually annexed the Practical Combat Club. Are you still as perverted as ever, my benefactor?"

Seeing Jiang Chen walking away, Yue Buzhi immediately chased after him.

Not long after walking, the two of them arrived in front of an antique building, and could faintly smell some alluring fragrance.

"This is Lin's Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion. It originally sold some precious phantoms and the like, but this year suddenly there are some special desserts. It is said that they were traded back from the territory of the Natural Disaster of Food."

Yue Buzhi introduced enthusiastically: "Also, the Lin family has also launched a simple version of the precious phantom, the treasure weapon. Although the effect is a little bit worse, the price is really cheap. I bought one of them."

"Treasures, desserts... Lin's movements are quite fast."

Jiang Chen suddenly realized that due to the Huolin disaster, Lin's reputation had obviously been affected.

Although it won't hurt your muscles and bones, you can't escape from bleeding.

Just looking at the current situation, Lin should be considered successful in recovering some losses through the Food Alliance.

I just don’t know if Lin will have any other influence among the higher-ups.

"I heard that something happened in the Southern Territory during the holidays. I was wondering if Lin wouldn't be able to participate in the competition, but it turned out that Lin was even more active than before."

Yue Buzhi smacked his lips and said: "In previous years, the contestants from Donghuang University only carried some precious phantoms. Now that the treasure trophies have been introduced, it is estimated that these people's equipment is even more exaggerated."

"I always feel that the repair tasks this year will be very heavy."

"repair?"

Jiang Chen asked curiously.

"That's right, it's just repairs."

Yue Buzhi scratched his head and said, "I am the logistics mechanic of the Ivy League evaluation team, and I am responsible for the maintenance of the external weapons of the participating pets."

Hearing this, Jiang Chen suddenly became interested.

As the latest to rise among the four major consortiums, the research direction of Su's consortium is also very different from other consortiums.

The Ye family is the most orthodox, specializing in the cultivation and breeding of pet spirits, and is also the strongest.

Xiao's specialty is biological research, focusing on pet spirit bloodlines and various pharmaceuticals. Lin, on the other hand, relied on the backers and focused on the development of Noble Phantasms.

The three of them almost all conduct development and research around pet spirits, but Su only develops pet spirits as a side industry.

Su's main focus is on mechanical prosthetics and nerve connection technology.

This technology sounds a bit sci-fi, but its practicality is extremely broad.

The military, in particular, has already established a long-term cooperative relationship with the Su family.

Although there are natural moats to help with defense, wars, large and small, still continue.

And when there is a war, there will be casualties.

Although death is regrettable, some incurable injuries or disabilities can also make life worse than death.

Su's mechanical prosthetics combined with nerve connection technology can allow these disabled people to regain their ability to move normally.

Although the combat effectiveness will be reduced, after all, he is no longer disabled, which is a great comfort to both the imperial envoy and the beloved spirit.

But according to Yue Buzhi, it seems that the Su family has developed a machine for fighting pets?

Seeing Jiang Chen's curious expression, Yue Buzhi knew that he had made a mistake and quickly covered his mouth.

"I'm sorry, benefactor, I can't say too much before the official game starts."

"Ok."

Jiang Chen was a little regretful. Every teenager has a mecha dream in his heart. This external weapon sounds like it fits his imagination. It's a pity that he can't take two photos in advance.

But forget it, since the opponent takes it out at this time, we will definitely meet him when the game starts.

"By the way, can I ask how many people are on the Ivy League team battle team?"

"This? It can be said that Ivy League University is full of people this time, and all seven people are present."

Yue Buzhi paused and said, "Also, Su Rui is here too."

"Suri?"

Jiang Chen tried his best to recall, and finally remembered the guy who had been clamoring for revenge on him.

Su Rui's pet Zangetsu Thunder Wolf is a thunder type, but it matches well with the external weapons. Maybe it can give him some surprises?

"My dear friend, I know that you are very powerful, but you should be more careful in the team competition. It is said that this time, all the universities have taken out their bottom stocks."

Seeing Jiang Chen's eagerness to try, Yue Buzhi couldn't help but remind him.

"Especially Tianqing University. It is said that all they sent out this time are members of their own family, aiming to compete for the top spot in the university!"

"My family? I understand."

If Jiang Chen realized something, Ye Shi didn't even bother to send members of his family to participate in the college joint exercise, but this time all members participated. It seems that this year's evaluation competition is indeed different from before.

Speaking of which, Bai Xiaoyu hasn't replied to his messages. Is he unhappy because he can't participate in the evaluation competition?

The more Jiang Chen thought about it, the more likely it became. He sent a series of messages to Bai Xiaoyu, and then continued to wander under the leadership of Yue Buzhi.

The outside of Tianqi University is a very prosperous business district, with various shops and restaurants everywhere, exuding a majestic vitality that is not found in other cities.

There are also shops opened by the four major consortiums, each selling their own specialty products.

It is a coincidence that the four major consortiums actually occupy the four directions of the business district around Apocalypse University, the southeast, northwest and four directions, as if they are guarding Apocalypse University.

“It’s not easy to see stores from four major consortiums in one city at the same time~”

Jiang Chen smacked his lips. Although the four major financial groups were all the backbone of the federation, their relationship with each other was not that good.

Once one company develops a certain city, other consortiums will no longer be able to easily enter the city.

Even if there are, it is just to open a few stores and brush up their sense of presence.

The federation's cake is huge, enough for the four major consortiums to share. There is no need to have conflicts over small business matters.

It is really rare for four companies to exist side by side like Tianqi City.

"It's really not easy. You can basically buy everything you want just by walking around here. It's really convenient."

Yue Buzhi was convinced, and suddenly pointed forward and said, "My dear friend, right in front of us is Su's Jiwu Tower."

Jiang Chen looked over after hearing the sound, and sure enough he saw a tall tower that looked like a big tree standing on the street.

The style of this tower is very close to the overall style of Tianqi City, both of which are full of strong futuristic technology.

And those who come in and out of the tower, whether they are humans or pets, are more or less wearing some sci-fi style products.

But what attracted Jiang Chen's attention the most were the mechanical prosthetics with special shapes.

"Let's go in and take a look."

Jiang Chen quickened his pace and took the lead towards the Jiwu Tower.

The internal structure of the Jiwu Tower was more technological than the outside world, but Jiang Chen had no intention of admiring it and ran directly to the counter to check it out.

What this counter sells are mechanical prosthetics of beast species, of various sizes.

Although you can't tell what material it is made of, you can still feel its toughness.

This kind of strength, apart from not being able to use skills, is probably about the same as normal limbs.

"The Su family has actually reached this point. Then maybe the external weapons used in combat can be matched with skills for combat?"

"No, maybe we can simply use the skills as normal limbs, and even have additional amplifications?"

Jiang Chen rubbed his chin, and a strange idea suddenly appeared in his mind.

How about giving some to your pet? (End of chapter)
