"Everyone, we meet again. You have practiced well in the past three months, but no matter how you practice, you must now face this final assessment." It was still the same mission hall, and the same elder. Nothing had changed here from three months ago, only people's hearts had changed.

"As I said last time, the organization holds a grand review for newcomers every year. You will go into the wild mountains and forests with newcomers from other bases to hunt for three months."

"The targets of hunting are not ferocious beasts, but newcomers from other strongholds. Your task is to kill them and obtain their tokens. The more you kill, the better your performance. A newcomer king will be selected each year, that is, the person who kills the most people. The newcomer king will receive a high-level reward, which will also affect the arrangement of future tasks. At the same time, there is also a minimum requirement, at least two people must be killed, otherwise the assessment will be failed. You know the consequences of failure. So don't think you can find a hidden place to hide for these three months!"

"Hunting does not ask about the means, but the results!"

"Another rule is that you are not allowed to hunt people from the same base. The review is not only an assessment between you newcomers, but also an assessment between bases. The base with the lowest performance will hand over five newcomers as punishment, and the level of the entire base will be lowered, reducing the supply of resources."

"As for how to identify each other, don't worry. We will implant a tiny creature called 'illusion silkworm' into each of your bodies. After it enters your body, you will have a sense of each other. At the same time, it also has a function, which is to send positioning information to the mother. No matter where you are, we can control you in real time, so don't dream of running away after entering the forest. The illusion silkworm relies on your blood to survive and grow. Of course, you can also feed it with the blood of others after killing people. The effect of animal blood is not as good as human blood. But there is also an advantage. While sucking blood, it can secrete the most refined and pure fresh air, which is directly and completely converted into true essence, which can speed up your cultivation."

After hearing these words, the idea of ​​escaping that some people had in their minds immediately vanished and they dared not think about it anymore.

"I've said everything that needs to be said. You guys should take care of yourself! Someone, bring the queen out."

The female insect is gray-brown in color, oval in shape, nearly one meter tall, and covered with a hard shell that looks like a huge upside-down pot.

"You all come forward one by one and put your hands here. Just take a breath." The deacon said, pointing to a protruding, wide tentacle of the queen insect.

No one hesitated, and they stepped forward one by one. It was Feng Huan's turn. He pressed his left hand on the tentacles, and he didn't feel any discomfort. But the star ring on his left wrist flashed, and a message appeared in Feng Huan's mind, "An invasion of external organisms has been detected, suspected to be phantom filaments..."

"Okay, let's go!" The elder said after the last person finished, "Follow me."

Everyone followed the elder out and came to an open space. The elder took out a small object, put it on his lips and blew it gently. No sound was heard, but a huge bird flew from the distance.

"Come up!" The giant bird landed on the ground, and the elder jumped onto the back of the giant bird.

Everyone jumped onto the bird's back and found that it was extremely wide and could still accommodate dozens of people.

"While flying, you hold on to the feathers on its back to prevent it from falling."

The giant bird flew through the fog, passing through a layer of seemingly invisible barrier.

"What we just passed through was a formation seal set up by the stronghold. Because of the existence of the phantom silkworms in your bodies, this seal has no effect on you. You can enter and exit at will. Otherwise, when you pass through this barrier, the formation will instantly turn you into pieces."

"This place is no longer the organization's base. You have a brief period of 'freedom'."

Standing on the back of the bird and looking down, you can see the mountains, jungles, and rivers below. There is no longer any fog outside, but no one is in the mood to appreciate the scenery.

……

About an hour later, after flying an unknown distance, the giant bird landed on a platform on the top of a mountain.

"Everyone, come down!"

After they got off the platform, they noticed that there were already quite a few people standing on it. They all wore masks and did not communicate with each other. Soon, several more groups of people arrived, all riding on the same giant bird.

Finally, a man came alone. When the leaders saw him, they immediately stepped forward and saluted, "Greetings, sir!"

"It seems that this year's harvest is good. The quantity is a little more than last year. You have been quite attentive this year! Well done!"

"Thank you, sir!"

"Now that everyone is here, there's no need to wait any longer. Let's get started! It's still the same old rules. Each base will set out in order of their last performance, with an interval of one incense stick. Three months later, we'll come back here to count the number of people."

The stronghold where Feng Huan was located was the last one to start, which meant that their performance last time was at the bottom.

"This is not good for us. Those who went in first might have set a trap for us. We must be careful and find a place to hide first!" Feng Huan thought to himself, and he guessed that others thought the same.
