Chapter 116 Re-entry

When Zhang Jing left Dongrui Building, it was already 15:38 in the afternoon.At noon, he hosted another meal for everyone, and the basic structure of the foundation has been decided. Zhang Jing serves as the chairman and chairman of the investment advisory committee, and has full authority over the operation of the foundation and project selection. .

Jiang Shanlin's position is the president of the foundation, and his subordinates will set up multiple departments such as investment, data, technology, investigation and appraisal, procurement, finance, administration, personnel, etc.

Projects exceeding RMB [-] and appointments and removals of important personnel require Zhang Jing’s approval.For the remaining projects, Zhang Jing will use his own authority to query the foundation database when needed.

Zhang Jing was in a good mood after completing a piece of work that he considered very important. Next, he decided to focus on his own practice first in order to break through the "Ichthyosaur Transformation: Book of Fish" as soon as possible. Changes in the egg laying period.At the same time, he also laid a foundation of strength as soon as possible for his next plan.

After returning home and making some preparations, Zhang Jing left a message for Jiang Shanlin and others, telling them that he was out hiking and might not be able to receive signals for a few days. If you have anything to do, leave him a message and he will reply when you get back.

In addition, he also left a message to Wang Tao, telling him that he was really busy these days and would not go to the class reunion, and asked him to say hello to his classmates on his behalf.

After that, Zhang Jing entered the scroll "Filthy Woodland" again.

Zhang Jing walked carefully in the forest, with a sword in his right hand and a shield in his left arm. On his hat and shoulders were some ash snow falling from the gaps in the tree crowns.

This was his third day in this world. In addition to his weapons, he was carrying a light cross-body bag.In order to facilitate movement and reduce weight, he left the heavier hiking backpack and other heavy objects in a nearby cave.

He walked past a weathered skeleton of an unknown creature, and jumped up to a tall tree not far away, carefully paying attention to the movements around him.He had already left the cave for an hour. Since he was not in a hurry but looking for prey, he just searched in a spiral arc with the cave as the center.

Along the way, he just met a group of monsters wandering around, but there were too many of them, more than ten of them. And because they didn't look like things to be trifled with, he took shelter early after discovering them.Apart from that, he didn't encounter any other gains.

This time when he came to this world, Zhang Jing was immediately transported to a place that was completely different from the last place he stayed.However, with the last experience and the great improvement in his own strength, Zhang Jing has gradually begun to adapt to the environment here.

And his goal this time is also very clear, which is to hunt as many monsters as possible to increase the amount of spiritual liquid in the "Demon Refining Pot".

Similarly, when Zhang Jing arrived in this world, just to be on the safe side, he still made a wish on the wish book: "I wish that I will have good luck in my next journey in this world."

Perhaps, because of the effect of the wish, Zhang Jing has not encountered an overly dangerous situation so far.

Silently he climbed to the top of a giant tree where several people were hugging each other, and looked around. He suddenly discovered that there seemed to be some bird-like sounds coming from the plants somewhere in front of him.

Zhang Jing took out the telescope from his backpack, raised his eyes and peered from a distance.

It was a rather large bird creature with blue and black feathers all over its body. From a distance, it was as tall as half a person. However, Zhang Jing noticed that their heads seemed to be a mixture of birds and lizards. The body has two pairs of eyes, and their wings have small claws. The body is covered with strange feathers mixed with scales. This reminds him of the model of Archaeopteryx he once saw in the museum, which looks a bit like , but even weirder, and these guys are obviously much bigger.

It seemed that the creature should not be too difficult to deal with and should meet his requirements. Zhang Jing quickly made a decision.

He arranged the weapons on his body, like a piece of fluttering catkins, silently but extremely quickly moved closer, and he could see clearly that they were two strange birds that had landed on the ground and were tearing apart. Something, they made a few croaking noises from time to time, maybe in order to compete for a more delicious position on the food, they opened their mouths full of sharp teeth to threaten each other, fought a few times, and then continued to lower their heads and nibble on something. .

This not only reminded Zhang Jing of vultures on earth,

Zhang Jing carefully lurked until he was about 20 meters away, then he quickly accelerated his speed. At the same time, he pulled out the tactical dagger stuck on his waist and threw it away.

The flying knife accurately hit the body of one of the strange birds, cutting off its wings and cutting off its right wing along the middle.Then the strange bird screamed, lost its balance and fell to the ground, flapping its wings and landing on the ground.

Before it could make a second cry, a cold light flashed across its head and chopped off its head.

At this time, the strange bird on the other side had already flown up, its sharp claws spread out, it flapped its wings and swooped up, striking directly at Zhang Jing's face.Zhang Jing did not shy away. He twirled the long sword in his hand, and his figure appeared on the side of the strange bird in a flash. Then he saw the strange bird's body tilted, a huge wound burst out on its body, and it crashed into the bushes nearby. …

Zhang Jing did not immediately go to deal with the two strange birds, but walked aside, first pulled out the tactical dagger nailed to the tree on the side, and put it back into the scabbard hanging at his waist.

At this time, two white lights flew up from the strange bird and entered his heart.Zhang Jing stepped forward and picked up the bodies of the two strange birds, took out the rope from his backpack, tied them up, and held them in his hands.

Before leaving, he took a look and saw that the thing on the ground that the two strange birds were tearing apart just now was a rotten beast corpse, and it also exuded an unpleasant stench. Naturally, Zhang Jing was not interested in this. He just took one look and left.

After hunting the monster, Zhang Jing took out the map and looked at it, confirming the direction. There was a river not far away, which was the destination of his next action.

However, before he had gone far, the long grass not far away began to shake violently, and it was obvious that there were creatures rushing towards this direction like separate waves.

At this moment, dozens of black tentacles roared out from the long grass like lightning, and like a large net that was constantly tightening, they whipped and entangled towards Zhang Jing's position.

Zhang Jing's reaction was also very fast. The long sword in his hand flashed, and the three tentacles were broken in response. Zhang Jing broke through the net and fell to the treetops beside him in the blink of an eye.

A low and angry roar sounded from not far away. This sound carried a strange and crazy power, making those who heard it feel their heads swelled and their spirits were greatly shocked.

"Forbidden!" Zhang Jing endured the pain in his head, controlled his spirit, squeezed the seal in his hand, and shouted.

There was another roar in the grass, but this time, there was no longer the weird and crazy feeling just now.

At this moment, the long grass swayed violently, and then, a huge six-legged monster emerged from it.This is a weird creature, with a head somewhat similar to an octopus, where the mouth should be, with long tentacles dancing.The body is somewhat similar to a combination of a lizard and a hippopotamus.

Zhang Jing could even see some ulcer-like scars on its body, which seemed to hide organs that looked like eyes and made people feel numb.

Just looking at it like this, Zhang Jing could clearly feel that it was angry.

The next moment, dozens of tentacles whipped over faster than before. The speed of these tentacles was extremely fast, and each one was like a bullet. If it were the naked eyes of ordinary people, it would be impossible to see their traces clearly.

Zhang Jing kept using the long sword in his hand to cut off the tentacles that were trying to wrap around him. He found that these tentacles were very tough and had a blade-like structure on them.

Even so, the long sword infused with "Qi" was still able to cut it off smoothly.And those broken tentacles would not stop immediately after falling to the ground, but would squirm like snakes, trying to wrap themselves around something.

The tentacles cut off by Zhang Jing quickly grew back, putting a lot of pressure on Zhang Jing. Zhang Jing kept changing positions, relying on his more flexible body skills to jump back and forth on the treetops, while circling this The monster circled, trying to figure out if it had any other abilities.

At this moment, those terrifying tentacles entangled Zhang Jing tightly like tarsal maggots, beating the surrounding plants until they collapsed as if they had been struck by swords.

Zhang Jing was a little hesitant. At this distance, he could not inflict decisive damage to the monster in front of him. He had to get in. However, with the speed at which the monster's tentacles were recovering, once he got in, the risk would increase rapidly. At the same time, I don’t know yet whether this monster has a hidden trump card.

At this moment, Zhang Jing suddenly heard the sound of soft swaying grass coming from the direction where the monster emerged, which made him immediately alert.

Immediately afterwards, he heard the monster in front of him suddenly roar a few more times, and as if in response to him, a roar came from the long grass, followed by the feeling of being shocked again.

"Forbidden!" Zhang Jing made a sound again, but his face had become a little ugly, and his body quickly retreated away from the monster.

At the same time, just behind the monster just now, another monster of the same size rushed out. The two monsters followed each other one after another, and then more tentacles rolled towards Zhang Jing. .

Seeing this, Zhang Jing took off a strange bird from his back and threw it in the direction of the monster. Perhaps he smelled the smell of blood. The two monsters were obviously stunned for a few seconds, and many tentacles suddenly changed their direction and wrapped around them. A strange bird corpse flew in mid-air.

Taking advantage of this moment, Zhang Jing cut off the two tentacles blocking the road, accelerated his speed and flew away...

There was no need to take too big risks and fight to the death with too dangerous monsters. Zhang Jing knew exactly what he needed.For transforming spiritual liquid, it is a safer and more effective way to kill more weak monsters and make up for quality with quantity.

However, the battle just now also made Zhang Jing realize that his current attack methods are somewhat single, especially the medium and long-range attack methods.

To this end, he considered the feasibility of using thermal weapons. After all, this is one of the biggest reliances on the development of human civilization to this day.

However, as far as he is concerned, the only weapons he can find are light thermal weapons, such as pistols and rifles. From what Zhang Jing has seen so far, the armies in this world generally use light-weight thermal weapons. Firearms are still mainly gunpowder weapons.

Advanced weapons such as Gaussian weapons have indeed been developed, but they are still mainly heavy-duty equipment and have not yet been miniaturized and popularized, not to mention that Zhang Jing has no channels to obtain such equipment.

And if it is just a gunpowder weapon, its attack power and penetration power are unsatisfactory for monsters of level two or above. If nothing else, as far as Zhang Jing's current strength is concerned, he can already easily dodge bullets from ordinary rifles.Therefore, if he cannot obtain heavy weapons, gunpowder firearms will be of limited help to him. Instead, trap weapons such as mines will be of some use.

However, in general, in Dazhao where guns are prohibited, such weapons are not easy to obtain, especially because they cannot be obtained through formal channels.And even going to countries that allow private ownership of guns, such as the Patuxet Confederacy.It is impossible for civilians to hold weapons such as landmines, especially powerful heavy-duty landmines.

Therefore, at the moment, instead of risking being targeted by certain agencies to acquire control weapons, it is better to think of other ways.Zhang Jing planned to consider this issue when he returned this time.

After getting rid of the two monsters, Zhang Jing increased his vigilance in his heart, identified the direction, took out the scroll and checked the map, and then carefully walked in the direction on the right.

About a quarter of an hour later, Zhang Jing heard the sound of water in the distance, and the farther he walked, the clearer the sound became.Finally, Zhang Jing came to a river. From the map, this river was the same as the river he saw when he first arrived in this world, but it was located downstream of that river.

Zhang Jing carefully came to the river and observed carefully. Seeing that everything was calm and there was no sign of any special monster, he took off the strange bird carcass on his back.He threw one out when he was escaping just now, but there is still one left.

Tie it up with a rope, find a tree about twenty meters away from the shore, and hang it on a branch close to the ground.

After that, he found a bush about [-] meters away from here. First, he circled some branches with each other, made a simple hat similar to a straw hat, coiled it on his hat, and then hid in the bush. In the bush, from the outside, there is no trace of anything.

Chapter 117 Pendulum Club

Zhang Jing began to wait quietly. After a while, suddenly, there was a strange sound of water coming from the river bank in the distance.

Hiding among the bushes, Zhang Jing peeked in the direction of the sound.

There was a faint mist on the river. Golden flames flashed in Zhang Jing's eyes. His eyes penetrated the barrier of the mist. He could see three weird-looking guys climbing up from the water. .

This is a humanoid creature with a head similar to a salamander. It is called a humanoid creature because this monster is about the same height as an ordinary person, has four limbs and walks on two legs.But other than that, it has nothing to do with humans. The naked body is covered with pimples, and the wet skin looks like an amphibian. Coupled with the head that looks like a large salamander, in terms of human aesthetic concepts, it is indeed It's very ugly.

At this time, the three monsters had completely climbed onto the shore. One of them looked around for a while, sniffed something, and then hissed a few times, revealing fine sharp teeth in its open mouth.

Then, the three monsters separated from each other and crawled towards the direction of the hanging strange bird. The posture was on all fours, unlike humans walking on two legs. Zhang Jing looked at it and it looked like a gorilla.

The three monsters climbed over looking left and right, and came to the tree where the strange bird was hanging. They looked around for a while. Then, one of the monsters jumped up high, grabbed the body of the strange bird, and pulled it away. Come down.

At this moment, Zhang Jing suddenly jumped out of the bushes. In the blink of an eye, he was behind the monster that had just jumped up and landed on the ground. The long sword in his hand passed by the monster's neck.

The next moment, a stream of blood mist burst out from the monster's neck, and it crooked and fell down.

The other two monsters also reacted quickly. One of the monsters crouched down and jumped towards Zhang Jing. Zhang Jing did not parry, but slashed his arm with a backhand sword and removed one of his arms. At the same time, A side kick hit the chest and abdomen of the last monster that was also flying towards him, and kicked it away.

The surface of this monster's body is covered with a layer of slippery mucus, and its muscles are strong. It looks like oiled rubber and has considerable protective power.

However, under Zhang Jing's sword, its effect was limited. At this time, the second monster was transformed by Zhang Jing to avoid the attack. At the same time, he inserted the long sword into the side of its chest, penetrated it, and broke the chest. out.

At the same time, the long sword flew out and penetrated the back of the head of the last monster who stood up and tried to escape towards the river.

Three balls of white light emerged from the corpses of the three monsters one after another and merged into Zhang Jing's chest.

Just when Zhang Jing finished taking care of three monsters with a surprise attack, walked to the pierced monster, and bent down to draw out his sword, he saw a group of green shadows shooting toward him from the direction of the river like bullets. Shooting.

He turned sideways to avoid the blow, and saw the green shadow hitting a small tree as thick as a bowl on the side of Zhang Jing. In an instant, a stream of white smoke came out, which was indeed some kind of extremely corrosive liquid.

Zhang Jing turned his head and looked, and there was indeed another monster that had climbed up the shore. This monster did not come forward, but lay there, its cheeks suddenly puffed up, like a screaming Like a big frog.

"Uh-huh..." While breathing, the monster opened its mouth suddenly, and a ball of green liquid flew towards Zhang Jing again...

It's just that this monster is much slower than Zhang Jing, and it couldn't hit Zhang Jing if he was prepared. However, Zhang Jing came to it in just the blink of an eye, pulled out his tactical dagger, and stabbed it into the neck. He twisted, turned, and retreated. After throwing a punch, the monster twitched a few times, then fell to the ground and became motionless.

At this time, the small tree hit by the green liquid had been corroded and tilted, and soon fell to the ground.

Another white ball of light floated out from the monster and sank into Zhang Jing's chest.

For a moment, everything returned to calm. Except for the four motionless monster corpses and some blood stains on the ground, there were only traces of some fighting in the field.

Zhang Jing carefully checked the surroundings and found no trace of the monster lurking. He retrieved his weapon, then returned to the place where he originally hung the strange bird corpse, and picked up the monster bird that had been torn off by the monster from the ground. The bird carcass left the area.

He was going to move to a farther place and repeat the situation all over again.

This routine, which is somewhat similar to "fishing", is a method of "monster killing" that he has figured out in the past three days. Zhang Jing discovered that this kind of humanoid monster that usually lurks in the river and looks like a salamander head, is on the shore. It is relatively easy to deal with, and this monster is greedy and will come ashore for prey with a strong smell of blood. At the same time, there are quite a lot of this monster in the river area, all of which make them an excellent "monster spawner" object.

An Huiling was lying weakly on the table with her eyes closed, headphones on her head, and a small jade pendant in her hand.

This jade pendant was a gift from her mother on her birthday last year. It was in the shape of a simple seal. She liked it very much and kept hanging it on her chest with a red string. It is said to be an ancient object from the pottery period and can ward off evil spirits and pray for blessings.

Strangely enough, her condition seemed to be getting better these days. She no longer had headaches or bleeding gums for several days. Even the discomfort she felt when taking medicine seemed to be less severe.

However, An Huiling was not too excited. After all, this situation had happened before, but the facts proved that it was just a temporary fluctuation, and after a while, the body continued to be as before...

She was very envious of those classmates who were in good health. She was also the same way in the past, but at that time, she only felt that everything was so natural...

And now, her father has tried no less than ten methods for her. Whether it is the latest new medicine or the folk remedies provided by experts, they can't stop her from watching her body get worse day by day.

"Hui Ling! Hui Ling!" The door of the room was pushed open suddenly, and the roaring voice was that Luo Yan was coming.

"What's the matter?" An Huiling raised her head, took off her headphones, and asked weakly.

"Let me tell you something!" Luo Yan leaned into An Huiling's ear and said, "Do you know the 'Pendulum Society'?"

"What is that?" An Huiling looked confused.

"It's a club that was just established in the school not long ago. The president is a sophomore girl named Tang Jingyuan. It's a club that studies mysticism and magic." Luo Yan said mysteriously.

"Occult science? Magic?" An Huiling frowned. Her knowledge of such things was limited to certain cartoons. In her impression, they were all deceptive things.

"Yes, yes! You don't know yet..." Luo Yan guessed what An Huiling was thinking by looking at her expression, and said hurriedly: "Tang Jingyuan used magic to tell fortunes for some classmates in school these days, and it worked. ! It is said that she is really capable and is not a liar. Several classmates have joined her club."

"Really?" An Huiling didn't believe it.

"Of course it's true, otherwise why would I come here to tell you that many people are spreading rumors about her now." Luo Yan said, "I think, let's go and have a look together. If we really have the ability, why don't we also Join her club! Think about it, magic, how cool it is!"

"But..." An Huiling was still a little hesitant. To be honest, her current body made her not want to move much.

"Go ahead, go ahead..." Luo Yan shook An Huiling and said. Because An Huiling kept it secret, her classmates, including Luo Yan, didn't actually know that she was terminally ill. They just thought that she was inherently weak.

"Maybe I can really learn some magic..."

Luo Yan's words struck a certain place in An Huiling's heart like a ghost, causing her to be half pushed and half pulled up, and followed her out of the room.

................................................

In a dark room in the old teaching building of the school, An Huiling and Tang Jingyuan sat across from each other in front of a square table covered with purple velvet. On the table was a chart depicting various weird symbols.

As for Luo Yan, she was waiting outside the door at this time. According to the rules of the society, only the fortune teller can be present during the fortune telling.

This room is currently the club activity room assigned to the "Pendulum Club" by the school student union. It has been decorated into a mysterious divination room, with hanging stars, strange runes, goat skulls, mirrors, etc. hanging on the walls. and other items with mysterious meanings.

Tang Jingyuan is a girl with long black hair, dark eyes and pale skin.At this time, she was holding an ancient crystal pendulum with a unique style that seemed to be of some age. The pendulum was swinging and rotating, and at this time, both of them were looking at the trajectory of the pendulum.
