Chapter 212: Eliminate Exotic Beasts (1)

This was a pill.
Under the dim yellow light, it reflected a blurred color.
Its surface wasn’t smooth, but was covered with dense patterns.
Holding the pill in his hand, Chen Yu focused his gaze and observed it.
“Spirit Enhancing Pill…”
“22 million per pill.”
“There’s a price but no market.”
Chen Yu carefully felt the touch on the pill skin and his expression was serious.
This pill was priceless.
It was given to him by Bahuang Yi.
The other nine pills were with Bahuang Yao.
He looked up some information on the internet and found that this thing was produced by the country. It was a special strategic material and was not sold publicly.
It was usually used as a reward for meritorious deeds.
22 million was actually the price of its production cost.
According to the news reports, the last time this kind of thing appeared publicly was two years ago, when the state awarded Bahuang Yi the Amnesty Medal, it was one of the few prizes that came with it.
Obviously, it was the box that Chen Yu and Bahuang Yao owned…
“What a pity.”
Chen Yu clicked his tongue. “It’s not convenient to sell it, which makes it very difficult to do…”
The patterns on each pill were a kind of complicated code, and they had their own identity cards. As long as the country wanted to investigate, they could easily trace its origin and the person who changed hands.
According to the law, trading in the country’s special strategic materials was strictly prohibited.
Naturally, not many black markets dared to accept this kind of Spirit Enhancing Pill.
Taking out a small box, Chen Yu carefully put the pill into the box. He looked at the night sky outside the window and decided to let his sister use it.
In any case, he could not eat this thing.
“Hula.”
He walked to the window and pulled the curtains tightly.
Chen Yu took a simple hot bath and then took out the two bottles of A-Rank synthetic fluid from under the bed.
It had been more than a week since the last injection.
The increase in strength had been completely digested. It was time for him to continue improving.
Now that there was no security officer, the growth rate of his strength level could not slow down.
“Injecting half a tube every week, this frequency should be more stable…”
Muttering, he opened the bottle cap and extracted half a tube of white oil from inside. He skillfully inserted it into the veins of his wrist and slowly pushed it.
[Infected by an unknown liquid: Strength +16,560]
[Strength +15,803]
[Strength +15,729]
[Strength… ]
Half a tube of oil was absorbed into his body. Chen Yu rolled his eyes in satisfaction.
Those who had never experienced it before would never be able to understand the pleasure of having their dantian expand in an instant.
After a long while, he came back to his senses.
Chen Yu pulled out the needle, stuck out his tongue, and licked his wound. Then, he tested out his explosive strength.
Bang!
The strong wind that rose up rustled the curtains.
“Level 1.9. It’s done.”
Chen Yu withdrew his strength, closed the bottle cap, and put the two cans of synthetic fluid under the bed.
Through the electronic notification sound in his mind, he could see that the increase in strength was getting lower and lower.
From the ‘18,000+’ per drop in the beginning to the ‘15,000+’ per drop now.
Just like smoking, as the body’s resistance and strength level increased, the effect of the Grade A synthetic liquid would definitely get worse and worse.
However, this was something that would happen at least after Level 3. Chen Yu was not in a hurry now.
“Inject half a tube a week. In half a month at most, I’ll officially break through Level 2.”
“Sure…”
Pah! Pah!
He patted his stomach in satisfaction and lay down on the bed, preparing to sleep.
Beside the bed were all sorts of ‘sleep aid’ products.
There was Red Bull.
Coffee.
A refreshing agent.
And some concentrated caffeine chewing gum.
Finally, there was that familiar dumbbell…
Anyway, there was always a way to make him fall asleep happily.
Buzz… Buzz…
After swallowing two pieces of caffeine chewing gum, his phone vibrated before he could chew.
Lying on the bed, he picked it up and saw that it was a call from Bahuang Yao.
Beep.
He picked up the call and placed the receiver by his ear. Chen Yu chewed on the phone as he said, “Hello Yao, good evening.”
“Good… Good evening…”
“How have you been these past few days? Has your fever subsided?”
“…Mm.”
“Is there something you need to talk to me about so late at night?”
“Yes.” From the receiver, Bahuang Yao’s voice was very serious. “I’ve received news that the school is going to issue compulsory missions.”
“Compulsory mission? What?”
“Every week, a class will complete at least one compulsory mission issued by the school.”
“We’re going too?” Chen Yu frowned.
“Yes, we’re all going.”
“Then how difficult is the mission?”
“I heard it’s very high. Most of it is related to the elimination of exotic beasts.”
“Exotic beasts? They’re at least C-Rank?” Chen Yu was surprised.
“Yes.” The young girl hesitated. “But… our class currently doesn’t have a safety officer, and we still have to do the mission. What should we do?”
Moving the phone from his left ear to his right ear, Chen Yu changed his position and frowned as he pondered. “En… To complete a mandatory mission within a week, when did this rule start?”
“It just started yesterday.”
“So we still have five or six days?”
“Yes.”
“Did something happen?” Chen Yu scratched his ear. “The school suddenly did this.”
“…” There was silence on the other end of the phone.
After a while, perhaps it was the caffeine in the chewing gum, Chen Yu felt a little sleepy and yawned. “Alright, I know about this. Let’s meet tomorrow to discuss it. Where’s Duan Ye? Call him later.”
“Didn’t Duan… Didn’t Duan Ye lose his phone…”
Chen Yu suddenly felt a wave of evil fire surge up, and his whole person instantly became spirited. “F*ck his grandpa.”
…
The next day, at three in the afternoon.
After Chen Yu and Bahuang Yao searched for him during the day, they finally found Duan Ye, who was in class, in one of the laboratories of the Qi Martial Arts Academy.
“Hey! No, no! My ears hurt, they hurt…”
“You still know how to feel pain?” Chen Yu let go of his hand and kicked Duan Ye’s butt in anger. “Can’t you get a cell phone? Are you trying to die?”
“I’m busy with my studies. I’ll go buy one right away.” Duan Ye rubbed the spot where he was kicked and said unhappily, “This class is worth two credits. I’m only in the middle of it.”
As soon as he heard that it was a class that cost money, Chen Yu immediately waved his hand. “Hurry up and go back to class! We’ll wait for you outside. We have something to discuss when we come out later.”
“Okay, okay…” Dusting off the dirt on his butt, Duan Ye hurriedly ran back.
After seeing Duan Ye disappear into the main door, Chen Yu pointed to a bench at the side and said, “Let’s sit there.”
“Okay… Okay.”
The two of them walked over, sat down, and waited quietly.
The cool autumn wind blew in front of them, bringing with it a refreshing scent of fallen leaves.
As he watched the male and female students leisurely walk past, Chen Yu suddenly felt a wonderful sense of relaxation.
In the depths of his mind, the inexplicable tension also gradually relaxed.
It was as if he had drunk a mouthful of ice Cola under the scorching sun. It was a feeling that his entire body had been ‘changed’…
“You… What’s wrong with you?” The attentive Bahuang Yao noticed Chen Yu’s abnormal state.
“Ah?” Chen Yu was stunned for a moment before he regained his senses. “Oh, nothing. I just suddenly realized something…”
“What is it?”
He raised his hand and pointed at the beautiful orange-yellow-orange-green campus scenery in front of him. “I suddenly realized… Sitting here and stopping my whole body to just kill time is the real university life.”
“Ah?” The girl was puzzled.
“We are all in a hurry.” Chen Yu leaned back on the bench and narrowed his eyes. Through the layers of branches and leaves, he let the mottled sunlight shine on his face. “Every minute, I wish I could break it into two halves. All I can think about is how to improve my strength.”
“Or what?”
“Or… it can be like this.” Chen Yu smiled and patted the bench. “Don’t think about anything, don’t do anything, don’t play… Just squander these one or two hours.”
“Like… Like this?” Bahuang Yao imitated Chen Yu and leaned against the back of the chair, staring at the sun behind the tree in a daze.
“Yes.” Chen Yu closed his eyes and said softly, “Just like this… Don’t think about anything.”
“…Okay.”
Gradually, an unknown amount of time passed.
Bahuang Yao also felt an indescribable sense of relief.
The corners of her mouth gradually raised into a faint smile.
“Classmate?”
“Classmate, wake up?”
Suddenly, a deliberately low voice called out.
Bahuang Yao opened her eyes in a daze and found a female student standing in front of her.
Her long hair fluttered in the wind, and she wore a pair of pink-rimmed glasses. She looked quite well-positioned.
“Ah? Classmate… Classmate, is there something wrong?” Bahuang Yao was puzzled.
“Yes.” The bespectacled girl gently twirled her hair and carefully glanced at Chen Yu, who was resting with his eyes closed. She asked in a low voice, “Are you in the same class as that handsome guy?”
Bahuang Yao glanced at Chen Yu and nodded. “Yes.”
“Other than being classmates, are you still lovers?”
“Lovers… Lovers…” The girl blushed and shook her head frantically. “No… No!”
“Oh!” The bespectacled girl was happy and took out her phone. “Then classmate, can you tell me his WeChat number? Shh! Keep it down.”
“You… What are you doing?” Bahuang Yao was stunned.
“You understand.” The bespectacled girl blinked her eyes playfully. “Help me! I’ll treat you to a meal.”
“But… But…”
“Hurry up and lower your voice. When the handsome guy wakes up…”
“Oh.” Bahuang Yao’s mind was filled with a mess of porridge. In a daze, she told the other party Chen Yu’s WeChat number.
“Thank you!” The bespectacled girl searched and clicked on ‘add’. She hugged Bahuang Yao excitedly. “Thank you! Thank you so much! Your classmate is so stylish! So handsome. I want to chase after him.”
Bahuang Yao: “…”
“Thank you! Goodbye!”
Bahuang Yao: “…No… You’re welcome…”
She turned around and looked at Chen Yu in a daze. Her spirit, which she had finally relaxed, began to tense up again…
“What does she want to do….”
