After returning to the City of Exiles, Lu Chen exchanged for the herbs and gave them to Lü Yiyi. Then, he waited until nightfall to take the first batch of pills.
"Boss, do you feel better?" Lü Yiyi looked at Lu Chen nervously.
"Yes, the deterioration of the injury seems to have slowed down a lot."
"That's great. Boss, the herbs you gave me are enough to refine for three days, but it will take some time. I will refine some more Solid Pills tomorrow."
Lu Chen smiled. "Don't worry. I don't have to do anything now. You should rest well."
In the evening, Lu Chen returned to the dormitory.
Seeing that Lu Chen had returned, the old man in the bed next to his got up and ran to Lu Chen's side. He whispered excitedly, "Hey, kid, you … you didn't die!"
He had seen Lu Chen accept the suicide mission with his own eyes. At that time, he had even tried to dissuade Lu Chen from doing so.
Lu Chen looked helpless. He had just returned and was already being asked such a question. It was as if he should have died.
Well, seeing that the uncle didn't have any bad intentions, Lu Chen didn't want to argue with him.
"My luck is good. You didn't die either. Congratulations to you."
"Good luck? Your luck is against the heavens! " The old man simply sat beside Lu Chen's bed. "However, your luck is really good. Coincidentally, there were other troops that attacked the undead camp … Not bad, not bad."
"It wasn't easy for you to survive. Kid, don't take things too hard in the future. Those suicide missions are not to be taken casually. Although life is hopeless, it has to go on. "The old man acted as if he had been there before and brought over a bowl of chicken soup.
Lu Chen smiled and shook his head. "Brother, rest early."
"What time is it? Why are you sleeping? You're sick all day. How can you not have any energy? "The old man was full of energy." Hey, let me tell you. Something big happened in the City of Exiles! "
"Huh? What happened? "Lu Chen asked curiously.
"Someone has completed 13 missions in a row in the trial battlefield, breaking Asura's record!"
Lu Chen thought about it for a moment. The person who continuously completed quests was most likely himself. But who was Shura, and what the hell was a record?
"Brother, who is Asura?"
"Shura is the strongest person in the City of Exiles!" "Of course, Asura isn't his real name. It's his nickname in the City of Exiles. He's the only marshal we've had recently!"
"I reckon that he will soon be called Marshal. When that time comes, he will be able to leave the City of Exiles openly." At this point, the old man's eyes were filled with yearning.
"That guy is the god of the City of Exiles! He's our idol! "
Wasn't it their goal to leave the City of Exiles in a dignified manner?
However, someone was about to do it. Someone was telling them that the impossible could be achieved!
In this hopeless place, perhaps the Asura was their only hope.
"And then?"
"And then! Let me tell you, Asura once set a record of completing 12 missions in an hour in the trial field. At that time, it was already shocking. But today, when we left the city to fight, someone broke the record! "
"Calculating the time, I reckon that at that time, before you even had time to rush back to the City of Exiles, a super newbie appeared!"
"Asura himself has released the news that he will break the record again! My God, completing more than 10 missions in an hour, that's more than 1,000 military merit points! "
It turned out that someone was dissatisfied with Lu Chen's results, but Lu Chen wasn't interested in it at all.
He just wanted to let Furball have a good meal and train the Divine Beast Squad. He didn't want to break anyone's record.
"Now, everyone is looking for the person who broke Asura's record. I really want to see if he's the second Asura!"
Lu Chen said, bored. "He won't."
"Why? How do you know? You're not him! "
Lu Chen shook his head. "I guessed."
…
The next day, Lu Chen wanted to go to the trial field, but who would have thought that there would be a sea of people there early in the morning?
From the surrounding onlookers, Lu Chen learned that Asura was going to challenge the trial field today.
Lu Chen frowned slightly. Sure enough, in the Land of Exiles, there was no other entertainment besides fighting. There were actually so many people watching.
There were too many people, so Lu Chen didn't line up. He turned around and went to the mission officer.
Seeing the one-armed young man walk over, the three mission officers looked at each other and smiled.
"You're here."
Lu Chen walked up to the three of them. "Do you have a mission?"
"Yes, why wouldn't we?" One of them said sarcastically. "We can't wait for you to die outside. Of course, we'll do our best to help you find missions."
Lu Chen frowned slightly. These people were getting more and more annoying.
Fortunately, the three of them were efficient and quickly pushed the mission to Lu Chen.
This was a spy mission. A team from the Heavenly Demon Group was heading to a nearby valley. Their purpose was unknown. Lu Chen needed to follow their tracks and spy for information.
The mission was originally a five-man team mission. The reward was 25 military merit points, which was considered very generous for a mission.
However, Lu Chen realized that he was the only one who had accepted the mission.
At this moment, an old man walked over to Lu Chen. He looked up at Lu Chen and then at the three mission officers.
"Didn't you say that there was no mission?" the old man questioned. "How did he get it?"
"The mission just came. Is there a problem?"
"There are still people rushing to die. What a joke! You should thank us for letting your old bones live for a few more days! "
The old man seemed to be angry but didn't dare to say anything. He could only settle for the next best thing. "Does the mission still need people?"
"No!"
Lu Chen frowned slightly. There were still four spots for this mission, but they didn't give anyone else the mission.
It was obvious that they wanted Lu Chen to go alone! As for the reason, it was self-evident. They wanted to use their authority to kill him as soon as possible …
Lu Chen's eyes flashed with killing intent. If they wanted to kill him, he might have spared their lives if they came to him openly. However, if they used such despicable tricks, Lu Chen had already decided to kill them!
"Young man, can … can you transfer the mission to me?" The old man turned to Lu Chen. "You're still young. Although you've lost an arm, you can exchange it for a limb regeneration pill in the future."
"If you really think there's no hope, I'll give you all my military merit points. It's useless to keep them anyway."
Lu Chen was interrupted by the old man and temporarily suppressed his killing intent. This old man was really rare. He was actually willing to give his military merit points to a stranger?
"Hey, old man, if you don't want your military merit points, you can give them to us. I promise you that the next mission will send you to your death first!" The mission officer was envious.
"You're giving your military merit points to him? Isn't it a waste in the end? You're really old and muddle-headed. Just give it to us. "
"Give it to you? Are you worthy? "The old man finally had some confidence for once.
Lu Chen had a good impression of this generous old man. He said politely, "Old man, you should keep the military merit points for yourself."
The old man was slightly surprised. If other people heard that someone was giving away military merit points for free, they would have been impatient. This was the most important resource in the third heaven.
But this kid actually rejected it?
The old man looked at Lu Chen again. This young man seemed different from the others.
After thinking for a while, he pulled Lu Chen to a place where there was no one. "Young man, you're different from the others!"
Lu Chen blinked. What did he mean? Did the old man see something?
"Asura could have left this place long ago. Do you know why he hasn't been promoted to a titled marshal?"
Lu Chen heaved a sigh of relief, but the old man's words piqued his curiosity.
