Chapter 91 Shameless
Chapter 91 Shameless to the Extreme (First Update)
Snow Valley Training Camp.
Snow was falling all over the sky. Li Zheng and other hardcore players stood in the training ground with their upper bodies naked, holding stone hammers and hitting the crystal wall in front of them one after another.
"Eighty! Eighty! Eighty!"
"I'm so tired and I really want to eat. What's the point of knocking on this thing?"
"All the physical labor I've done since I was a child combined is not as much as what I've done in this crappy training camp. They're simply training us like animals. When will this end?"
There were constant complaints in the voice channel, and Li, the leader, said helplessly:
"Stop talking nonsense, we have to finish knocking, why not finish it quickly and take a rest."
"I hope the reward is generous enough this time, otherwise I will go crazy." Chi Tu couldn't help but complain again.
This time, Crazy Sand's training project required them to use stone hammers to smash the crystal wall.
After continuous knocks, Li Zheng and the others felt numb in their palms, but there were only shallow scratches on the surface of the crystal wall, and there was no sign of it breaking.
In order to continue the mission, they had to grit their teeth and persevere.
During this time, his knuckles were cracked and bleeding, and sweat was dripping down his forehead.
Turning around, I saw that the livestock of various tribes seemed to be working extremely hard in the training, completely ignoring the damage to their bodies, and the crystal wall in front of them was clanging loudly as they knocked on it.
But in the process of pounding the crystal wall, you can occasionally hear the "gurgling" sound from your stomach.
This is the aftermath of the cafeteria hunger battle, and it is also the way the students of the Snow Valley training camp welcome the students of the Water Valley training camp.
An additional training course was added for them that was not required by the instructors: hunger resistance training.
After three days of starvation training, the Po Luo tribe no longer had the arrogance they had when they first arrived, but they still refused to surrender and demanded to eat according to the rules of the Shui Gu training camp and in order of strength.
Only after the Po Luo tribe has finished eating, can the students of other races have their turn.
Li Zheng and others did not tolerate this.
The main thing is to eat someone crazily from behind and not eat anyone from the front.
In the eyes of all races, the talent for enduring hunger is maximized.
But after a series of group fights, Li Zheng and other hardcore players also felt regretful.
In their eyes, free spiritual food is equivalent to free body-building experience. Every extra bite is a profit. Such an opportunity cannot be experienced in the Novice Village.
But in order to fight against bullying, they chose to continue to persevere like real men.
During this period, I also thought about finding an opportunity during the melee to secretly put the spiritual food into the space bag, and then take it out to eat when I returned to the room at night.
But after asking for guidance, I found that this idea was not reliable.
There are several supervisors in the cafeteria observing their fight, and the spiritual food will be discovered as soon as it is loaded into the space bag.
One of the rules of the cafeteria is that you cannot take any spiritual food away, otherwise the fixed 15-minute eating time will become meaningless.
What we want is to make them fight for every second.
According to Kuangsha, this time will gradually decrease as we enter the second and third training camps.
This is even more true when you graduate and arrive on the battlefield.
The war between the Anti-Tide Legion on the front line and the powerful tribes on all sides was extremely fierce, sometimes so brutal that there was not even time to eat.
While explaining the regulations, Kuangsha said with a smile that when he was at the worst time on the front line, he fought with the "Soul Returning Clan" for 10 consecutive days. During that time, he did not even have time to stop and rest or eat. In the end, he was exhausted and passed out. It was his comrades who carried him back to the rear.
The gradually increasing regulations in the training camp are intended to allow them to adapt to the high-intensity front-line battlefield in advance.
The rule that they could not take food away also prevented Li Zheng and others from cheating, so they could only survive by eating canned food purchased from the mall every night.
Occasionally, if you are lucky, spirit fish meat will be put on the shelves in the trading house, and after you grab it, the brothers will rush to share it.
Having persisted until now, Li Zheng and other hardcore players feel bitter.
With high-intensity training, it is difficult to fill the body's deficit with canned food alone. Without spiritual food to supplement excessive consumption, the feeling of hunger always lingers in the mind.
This also reminded Li Zheng of what the God of Wealth once said: food in cans is meaningless and is not even as good as practicing to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
He didn't understand the meaning of this sentence at the time, but now he understands the reason.
After the body's strength reaches a certain level, the supplementary effects of ordinary food on the body become very limited.
It is foreseeable that in the future, as the player level continues to increase, spiritual food will be the main food to solve hunger, and canned food with 1 point of sacrificial power will be gradually eliminated.
Apart from the torture brought by training and enduring hunger, Li Zheng and others also had happy times during the training camp.
For example, a medicinal bath every two days.
Each medicinal bath can increase the body-building experience by more than 7000 points.
The profit is much better than hunting evil spirits and monsters outside.
What’s more important is that the increase in body building experience can also bring bonuses to all attributes of the subject.
Every player in the Hardworking Group has reached level 3, and Li Zheng’s body-building level has even reached level 5.
This means that five life souls can be embedded in the star vein, and the main form can inherit all the attribute bonuses of the five life souls.
Unfortunately, it is not possible to increase the level of the embedded soul through hunting in the training camp, and the attributes that the embedded initial soul can inherit are very limited.
It's late afternoon.
The last ray of afterglow in the sky quietly disappeared into the horizon, replaced by a deep and tranquil blue-purple sky, and the training camp was covered by a layer of energy gauze.
It's time for dinner again.
Li Zheng and others came to the cafeteria under the leadership of instructor Kuangsha.
As soon as you enter the door, the rich and tempting aroma of food hits your nose instantly.
Li Zheng's eyes swept towards the dining table. The meat, bones and various vegetables were steaming, interweaving a mellow flavor mixed with the unique aroma of spices. Just by smelling it, one could foresee the wonderful taste of the rich energy particles contained in the soup.
His eyes swept towards the dining table on the other side. Fresh spiritual fruits exuded a refreshing fragrance, and his eyes seemed to be able to catch a hint of sweetness, which made Li Zheng swallow his saliva subconsciously, and his mouth became salivating.
On the dining table at the back, noodle-shaped spiritual roots were paired with sizzling barbecue, and various sauces were placed next to them, giving off an irresistible and tempting aroma.
In the cafeteria, the aromas of various spiritual foods intertwined to form a unique "food symphony", which not only awakened all the students' desire for food, but also made them feel bitter in their hearts.
Because these spiritual foods are destined to be out of their reach.
At this time, Li was looking at Guitong not far away from him.
This enemy, who had just arrived with an arrogant tone and asked them what tribe they were from, looked at the food with undisguised greed, like a hungry wolf with flames burning in his eyes, and his thirst for food was like a dry land's expectation for rain.
Just by looking at them, the students' stomachs began to make low and continuous rumbling sounds, starting a pre-meal ensemble that continued one after another.
But everyone knew that no one would be able to eat this meal.
After three days of fighting and three days of starvation, no one surrendered.
The battle will continue until the winner is decided or the chief instructor Kuangsha demands an end to the fighting in the cafeteria.
But precisely because fighting is unavoidable, all the students especially cherish the brief peace before the battle. Their breathing becomes heavier during this period, as if they want to absorb the smell of food in the air through breathing.
"Hey! Luozi, come here and scratch your uncle's itch."
Just then, Li Zheng stood up.
His shout was like the starting gun at a sports meeting, breaking the pre-meal silence and the cafeteria battle was about to break out.
In just a few minutes, it was like a violent storm swept through this place that should have been orderly.
The dining table was ruthlessly overturned, the plates were turned into weapons for fighting, and the spiritual food placed on the table mixed with the sauce was scattered all over the floor... The air was filled with the aroma of food and the dull sound of fists hitting flesh.
The chaotic scene lasted for 15 minutes.
When the canteen manager came over, the students who were still standing dragged the collapsed student out of the canteen and abandoned him outside the canteen door.
There was no winner in this battle, and all the students looked extremely embarrassed.
Bruises on the face, footprints on the clothes, messy hair... The worst-off was a student from the Iron-Faced Clan in the Mizutani Training Camp. He was pinned to the ground in a mixed doubles match by the players and the Four-Eyed Clan students. His eyes were swollen and his mouth was dislocated. He was now lying on the ground gasping for breath.
The war was over, but the training was not.
Kuangsha arrived shortly afterwards. After straightening the bones of the dislocated students, he led them to the training ground and introduced the new training program.
There was no actual combat training or learning of combat skills in the first training camp. All training programs were centered around strengthening willpower.
What is needed is that they endure the pain and then overcome their inner struggle through willpower.
This process is already full of torture, and the additional training of enduring hunger deprives the trainee of the final enjoyment of the training.
The suffering ended at ten o'clock in the evening.
After returning to the room, Li Zheng and others closed the door and opened the trading house to start searching for ingredients.
"Wow, there's a piece of worm meat for sale in the mall. It's delicious."
"The worm meat looks a bit disgusting, and there are wrinkles on it that look like the brain. The taste is also much worse than the spirit fish meat. Unfortunately, the fish meat is too difficult to buy. Every time it is put on the shelf, it is sold out. I don't know if there are too few fishermen or they always come up empty-handed."
"Have you contacted the fishermen from the Demon Sect? They have a large catch of spirit fish."
"We have contacted them. Their spirit fish have already been reserved by several guilds. It is not our turn."
"Stop complaining. Bug meat tastes much better than canned food. We should thank the emergence of the combat bugs for giving me another choice when I eat canned food."
"Let's eat, let's eat! I'm almost fainting from hunger. When will this day end? I want to eat the delicious meal in the cafeteria."
……
After sharing the insect meat, Li Zheng and others began to eat the canned food in big mouthfuls.
But the canned ones taste terrible.
After eating spiritual food, the taste buds and the body's demand for food change, and cheap food such as canned food becomes difficult to swallow.
I feel sick of eating too much.
But in order to be able to train normally tomorrow, they chose to continue eating.
Half an hour later, the hardworking players who had finished their meal started chatting about their daily life in the training camp.
The urge to kill was aroused: I wonder what those animals do at night?
Being so poor that one has to eat dirt: What else can one do? One lies in bed with an empty stomach, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep. All one can think about are the various delicacies in the cafeteria. The more one thinks about them, the hungrier one gets, and the hungrier one gets, the more one thinks about them. Then the next day one continues training listlessly.
Family Sharing Godfather: At least we still have food to eat. They are really strong, especially the Po Luo tribe. Their ability to withstand hunger is obviously much stronger than that of the Four-Eyed Tribe.
Game brick-moving party: I think the Four-Eyed Tribe is more able to withstand hunger. They are in poor condition because we drained their energy some time ago, and they haven’t recovered yet after the serious damage. I don’t believe that the Po Luo Tribe can withstand seven days without food like the Four-Eyed Tribe.
At this moment, Ling Chong, who was rubbing his belly, interrupted:
Leopard Head Zero Charge: By the way, is night fighting prohibited in the training camp?
Poor enough to eat dirt: Night fight? What night fight?
As Chi Tu finished speaking, he was suddenly stunned. Everyone's eyes turned to Ling Chong, and they suddenly realized what was in his mind.
Game Bricklayer: What do you mean, kid?
Leopard Head Ling Chong: We have just finished eating and are full of energy, but they are staying up late to endure hunger. We have an absolute advantage in terms of condition. Since the advantage is in me, why don’t we sneak up on them under the cover of night and take down them?
Poor to the point of eating dirt: You are so smart, Kuangsha never said that we can't beat people during sleep time, wouldn't it be fun for us to sneak over and beat them up? Game Bricklayer: I agree with it wholeheartedly, let's increase the intensity, not only will we not let them eat, but we will also make it impossible for them to sleep.
Family Sharing Godfather: Holy shit, you are usually quite naive, but I didn’t expect you to be so sinister. You can even come up with such a shady trick.
It’s fun and doesn’t cost money: Hahaha, it is absolutely feasible. We can repair the problem of mental fatigue by purchasing mental healing potions in the mall. They are really hard-working.
……
With this idea in mind, Li Zheng and others immediately opened the mall and bought a bottle of mental repair potion to drink.
It's like a gentle warm breeze blowing through your heart, nourishing your mental fatigue and quickly recovering from the energy.
Then they opened the door and came to the room where the four-eyed freshmen were in the dark.
Before I got close, I heard a strange sound.
At this time, Sha Xin frowned slightly: "There are many frogs croaking, do you hear them?"
Poor enough to have to eat dirt: Listen to your head, it feels like my stomach is protesting, idiot.
During the conversation, Li Zheng came to the door of the Four-Eyed Clan and knocked gently:
"Tongzi, are you asleep?"
There was a rustling sound from inside, and then the door was opened. The haggard Ghost Eye looked at Li Zheng with a puzzled expression:
"Li Zheng, what are you doing here so late at night?"
Li Zheng glanced at his brothers behind him, then pointed to the room:
"Go in and talk."
"Okay." Guitong turned sideways, and Li Zheng and others immediately entered the room.
Under the puzzled gazes of the four-eyed freshmen, Li Zheng and others entered the house and explained the purpose of their visit.
After listening to his story, Gui Tong's mouth twitched:
"If they can't sleep, then we can't sleep either, right?"
"Yes, just keep going with them, and add an extra late-night course until they collapse." Li Zhengyi nodded sternly.
Hearing this, Guitong and his clansmen had complicated expressions.
The beasts of the Wan family were obviously going to do a big job again. While risking their own sleep time, they also wanted to drag them to stay awake together.
In the eyes of the freshmen of the Four-Eyed Clan, this behavior was simply the worst of beasts, and they did not even let go during the final break in the training camp.
But they couldn't refuse.
Because the player family who made this suggestion has the courage to do so, it would be shameful if they didn't have the courage to follow.
The two thoughts fought fiercely in his mind. Ghost Eye, the representative of the Four Eyes Clan, took a deep breath and said firmly:
"We followed."
"Tongzi, I knew you were reliable."
"Don't pat my shoulder. We are just temporarily allied to fight against the Po Luo tribe. We will deal with you again after the Po Luo tribe leaves."
"I'm so scared, hahaha."
"You really deserve a beating. I want to beat you up right now."
After reaching a consensus, Li Zheng and others went their separate ways and went to the rooms of other ethnic groups in the Snow Valley Training Camp to discuss the idea of offering additional courses.
……
the other side.
Po Luo, who was sitting cross-legged to cultivate and nourish his body by absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, suddenly opened his eyes and said in a deep voice:
"Open your eyes, I have an idea."
The tribesmen who were already awake opened their eyes and looked at Eluo.
"It's not a good idea to keep going like this. Simply absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth cannot make up for our physical exhaustion. We should use our advantages to attack their weaknesses."
As he spoke, Po Luo's eyes swept over the tribesmen:
"My Po Luo people have the racial talent of being able to quickly restore their mental state through practice. Since they offer hunger training to us, we will also add an additional training course for them."
As he spoke, a smile appeared on the corner of Polo's mouth:
"I want to keep them from sleeping well."
After saying this, Po Luo stood up:
"Go and inform the new students of the other tribes to attack the Snow Valley tonight and let them feel what pain is."
……
The night was as dark as ink, and the training camp was covered by thick curtains.
The energy lamp hanging on the metal pole on the roadside swayed in the wind, and the end made a "creaking" sound due to friction.
With the faint light from the aurora in the sky, a group of figures blended into the night and hurried towards the rest area of the Mizutani training camp.
Soon after, the trainees of the Xuegu training camp, led by Kuri Masaru, bypassed the fence next to the barracks and entered the rest area of the Mizutani trainees' barracks.
"Hush, walk lightly. We're here. We'll split into five groups and attack them by surprise."
At this time, Li raised his hand and whispered the battle plan, and the freshmen of various races behind him also stopped.
In the moonlight, you can see that they all have sly smiles on their faces, like a group of weasels preparing to steal chickens, unable to hide their excitement.
After fighting each other for so many days, they felt relieved when they thought about the upcoming moment of revenge.
But just as Li Zheng and others were about to move forward, they discovered a group of figures tiptoeing out of the room not far away and heading towards the entrance of their camp.
Seeing this scene, the expressions of Li Zheng and others became very strange.
At this time, the black shadows running over quickly also discovered them. They all froze in place, and then a familiar voice came:
"Who?"
Faced with the questioning of the familiar voice, Li Zheng and others could not help but understand what was going on.
After a brief silence, Li Zheng howled and rushed towards the new students of Shuigu training camp with his brothers from Xuegu training camp:
"Shameless! You are truly too shameless. You actually wanted to attack us under the cover of night. We caught you!"
"It's so hateful. As reserve soldiers, you actually had the idea of a sneak attack. It's extremely shameful. Fortunately, we predicted your shameless actions in advance, otherwise you would have succeeded." Guitong also cooperated and cursed.
"You bastard, you only know how to play dirty. If you have the guts, come at me openly. What's the point of sneak attacks?"
"Well, luckily we had a premonition that you were going to launch a sneak attack and were well prepared in advance. Now you've been caught by us, ugh."
As Li Zheng and other hardcore players shamelessly turned the tables, the students of the Xuegu Training Camp followed suit, playing the role of "the bad guy is the first to complain", loudly denouncing the shameless behavior of the students of the Shuigu Training Camp, and then pounced on them and started to punch them hard.
On the other side, the students of Mizutani training camp also understood the situation.
Apparently, the students in the Snow Valley Training Camp coincidentally had the same idea as them. They all wanted to launch a sneak attack under the cover of night and mentally torture each other, but they ended up bumping into each other.
But what made the freshmen in Mizutani training camp angry was
Everyone was playing dirty, but the students at the Snow Valley training camp spoke in a righteous manner and turned the tables.
The most important thing is that this is our Mizutani training camp. They have already entered the fence of our camp, but they still dare to say that they had anticipated that they would launch a sneak attack and had set up defense in advance.
This level of shamelessness is comparable to that of the insidious beasts among the Wan family.
And it is very likely that he learned it from playing with his family.
"Beat them!" The evil leader Luo said angrily at this time, and then took the lead to pick up the Bronze Clan student who was rushing towards him, pressed him to the ground and punched him twice in the face.
The war of staying up late is about to begin.
The students on both sides vented the pent-up anger in their hearts on the students in the other training camp with every punch.
But what was very tacitly understood was that neither the freshmen from the Snow Valley Training Camp nor the rookies from the Water Valley Training Camp cried out in pain even after being beaten black and blue.
They were afraid that the fight would be too intense and would wake up the instructors who were sleeping in other rest areas.
It’s okay for them not to sleep, but they are the ones who will feel uncomfortable if the instructor can’t sleep.
Now they both want to defeat each other, so how could they be willing to end the fight so easily?
Even if you have to hold back the pain, you have to keep fighting.
During the fight, figures kept falling down, but whether they were the freshmen of the Snow Valley Training Camp or the Water Valley Training Camp, they tacitly did not attack the fallen students, but turned their targets to other students of the hostile training camp who were still standing.
This fight was different from the cafeteria fight, as there was no 15-minute time limit.
Therefore, the two sides have a tacit understanding and believe that victory would be achieved by defeating the other side!
……
early morning.
The first ray of sunlight peeked out from the horizon, the sky glowed red, and the world under the heavy snow swayed on the edge of dream and wakefulness.
The snow-capped mountains in the distance reflected golden light under the sunlight. A few snowbirds chirped as they flew over the training camp. The tranquility shrouded by the night quietly faded away, and vitality spread and revived.
Boom!Boom!Boom!
The sound of war drums rang out, and it was time for morning training.
Kuangsha and three instructors arrived at the training ground on time, but when their eyes swept towards the assembly point, they couldn't help but be stunned.
Not a single student showed up at the assembly point; everyone was late.
Kuangsha's expression suddenly became very embarrassed. In his eyes, disobeying the rules was absolutely not allowed. This group of students had violated the taboo in his eyes.
Unable to bear it any longer, Kuangsha turned into a stream of light and flew towards the rest area of the students in the Snow Valley Training Camp.
After the body lands on the ground, the sense of release is achieved.
What surprised him was that when he scanned every room, he found that there was not a single student in the rest area.
Confused, he immediately flew into the sky and rushed towards the freshman rest area of Mizutani training camp.
A few minutes later, Crazy Sand landed in the rest area where the trainees of Mizutani Training Camp were.
When he saw the scene clearly, the anger in his heart dissipated and his expression looked very helpless.
The trainees from both training camps were lying on the ground with bruised faces and noses. The scene was extremely tragic. After a quick glance, there was not a single intact face. All of them were swollen in a circle, some several times.
This also includes the strongest fighters on both sides, Po Luo and Gui Tong, who were still in a fighting stance with their fists on each other's cheeks before they fainted.
"Eh."
Kuangsha couldn't help but sigh.
In all the years he has managed the Snow Valley Training Camp, this is the first time he has seen training extended to this level.
