Just like that, Reina went through two weeks of training under the guidance of Hunter Helig in order to participate in the Stairway to Heaven's Hunter Assessment. Helig was amazed by her speed of growth.
Suddenly, a head popped out from the bushes. Reina stared at the small hill in the distance, but there seemed to be nothing there.
She quietly picked up her bow and took out three arrows from behind her back.
She adjusted her breathing slightly and suddenly exhaled. She stood up abruptly and quickly shot three arrows into the sky.
At this moment, something strange happened. The arrows seemed to be alive. They suddenly changed their trajectory and quickly fell to the ground.
Only a few popping sounds could be heard. Green liquid splashed out from where the three arrows fell. There were three Contorted Demons hiding there. But they didn't even have time to struggle before they were killed.
However, a strange roar could be heard. A long monster suddenly appeared behind Reina. It had a huge body like a snake, a head like a bat, and a smooth body with sharp fins. It hid in a hole and Reina launched a surprise attack.
Reina didn't even turn her head. Suddenly, a yellow energy appeared behind her. With a bang, the monster directly hit the magic barrier and fell back.
"Flame Spear."
With a low voice, Reina turned around. Her right hand was holding a blazing fireball. Suddenly, she opened her hand and a pyramid-like yellow barrier suddenly appeared. The flames extended in the shape of a triangular pyramid and pierced through the monster's body.
The combination of Magic Tower and Flame was a spell created by Reina. Using the flames gathered by the tower, it could easily cut through rocks. It was a very terrifying close combat attack.
After being pierced through by the triangular pyramid, the monster immediately burst into flames and a fire hole appeared in its body. Within a few seconds, it fell to the ground, motionless.
The magical flame dissipated in an instant, and Reina wiped the sweat off her forehead.
At this moment, a round, furry shadow appeared not far away. Chestnut ran over with a hop, and Heilig followed behind her. He put away his bow and walked over slowly.
He looked at the Yin Mo on the ground and was a little shocked in his heart. He himself did not notice its existence, but Reina was actually able to react in such a short period of time and counterattack. Perhaps it was because of the Spatial Perception. Moreover, her learning speed was too fast. In just two weeks, she had mastered the core skills of a Hunter.
Heilig turned his head and looked into the distance. There were three corpses of Distortion Demons where the arrows were stuck. However, without the black smoke, it was hard to tell if they were dead. Therefore, he asked Chestnut to smell them one by one, just in case.
"Not bad. You'll definitely pass the exam if you maintain this state. It just so happens that the Stairway to Heaven's examination is about to begin. Get ready to participate in the examination tomorrow," Hailig said as he used his hunting knife to cut off the Yin Demon's ear.
"Good! I don't know what the exam is about, but it's fine as long as it's not tied up. "
Reina was most afraid of tying ropes. She could never master it, and Hunter Hellig could not teach her. He could only teach her the most commonly used ropes.
"Collect some black stones. Let's go buy some equipment for tomorrow's exam."
"Okay!"
Reina nodded confidently. Soon, the two of them left the place.
Armed with a full arsenal of arrows and equipped with Hunter's professional equipment, Lina followed Hailig to the Stairway to Heaven.
The Stairway to Heaven was the entrance to the second floor. It was a huge lift.
In Reina's imagination, it was a huge building built on the edge of a cliff. However, in reality, it was not on the edge of a cliff. It was an oval building 50 meters away from the edge of the cliff.
As for why, Hellig's explanation was that strong winds would blow from the edge of the cliff from time to time. This kind of strong wind would bring about violent vibrations, and the thing that buildings were most afraid of was vibrations. The Stairway to Heaven was built on a huge pit. It was actually very large. It was not just the part that could be seen with the eyes. It was like an iceberg, and the real body was underground.
There was a stone wall outside the Stairway to Heaven, and there were hunters stationed here.
"Long time no see. Hey, did you go back?"
The hunters guarding the door recognized Hellig. Reina guessed that it was probably because of Chestnut. After all, Hellig was the only hunter who had Chestnut with him. The hunters loved Chestnut. Although they did not dare to touch it, they would always talk about it when they talked.
Lena hid beside Chestnut, grabbing its fur. Perhaps she saw Mr. Ball's shadow on Chestnut, because every time she met a stranger, she would subconsciously approach Chestnut.
"This is?"
"Oh, she's here for the exam," Hellig replied immediately.
"A new face. Which area is she from?"
"She almost always acts alone. She's a little introverted, so she doesn't interact with many people. Alright, we should go register now. If we miss it, we'll have to wait for a month. "
Hellig quickly left with Reina before the hunters became suspicious.
The building was huge and spacious. There were many people here. Other than the hunters, most of them were logistics personnel in charge of transportation. They were moving boxes of various sizes to and fro.
Hellig led Reina through many corridors and came to a small window.
"Register for the Stairway to Heaven examination," he said to the window.
He said something to the window. Suddenly, the window opened, revealing a small room inside. A hairy demon was sitting inside. He had an unhappy look on his face as he glanced at the two of them.
He was the only one who was so cold to Hellig.
"Token," the demon said coldly.
Hellig looked at Reina and whispered, "The one I gave you."
Reina understood and took out the iron token that Hellig gave her. There were some words engraved on it that she could not understand.
As soon as Reina put it on, the demon took it away and scolded, "Why are you dawdling?"
Hellig smiled bitterly. Reina frowned.
"Asfer, is it?"
"Ah, yes!"
Reina replied. The demon rolled his eyes. "Not three years. There's still a month left. Come back next month."
Then, he put the iron token back on the table.
"Hey."
Hellig suddenly shouted in a low voice.
"Is there anything else? Can you say it all at once? I'm very busy right now. "
The demon said impatiently.
Hellig frowned. When the horned demon was angry, the horn on his head would emit a dark red light. Black particles would appear on his face.
"If you know what's good for you, do it immediately. I'll only say it once."
He glared at the demon with a posture of mutual hostility.
The demon's face froze. He coughed and his eyes began to drift. He did not dare look at the demon. "I have to do things according to the rules."
"Right away!"
Hellig suddenly roared. The window shook. A shadow appeared behind Hellig. The angry chestnut's hair stood on end. It bared its terrifying fangs and scared the demon into shrinking back. He hurriedly took the iron token with trembling hands and looked for something in the drawer. After a while, he put a cloth with numbers on it on the counter.
"I don't care what happens."
After saying this, he hurriedly closed the window.
