Swallowing the Stars: Starting with a Pair of Double Pupils

"In addition, as we also stated in the contract, as long as you make progress in your cultivation, there will be additional funding. The remaining 1 million will be transferred to you later. Contact me again if you need anything."

Wu Tong chuckled, showing no sign of pain whatsoever.

The initial free gift could be considered his personal investment, while the subsequent part was a clause in the contract.

After all, the opponent is growing so fast, and if their equipment is upgraded to the 6-series, they will be able to use it for a longer period of time.

It is also much safer and easier to use than the 5 series. It is better to have equipment that is a little higher than your current cultivation level.

"Okay, then I'll trouble you." Fang Yi thanked him.

"Hey, have you got your eye on any weapon manuals? I heard you were relying on your fists during the martial arts assessment," Wu Tong asked with concern.

After all, the difference in strength between a warrior with weapons and one without is quite significant.

To deal with some high-level monsters, you basically have to use weapons, otherwise you might not even be able to break through the monster's hide.

"No." Fang Yi shook his head, then explained, "I don't have a weapon I'm good at right now. I plan to try it out with the current conditions first, and then prepare more later. After all, I'm more familiar with the way of fighting with my fists."

"That's fine, but fighting high-level monsters is extremely dangerous, so you must be very careful." Wu Tong said with a serious expression.

I finally discovered such a promising talent, and if he fails halfway through, it would be a huge loss!

With proper training, it's entirely possible that he could become a war god in the future.

At the same time, arrogance can be a good thing for martial artists, but the danger lies in not knowing what's good for them. Being overconfident in one's own strength can ultimately lead to becoming a cripple or even death.

Such examples are not uncommon.

Fang Yi naturally understood the other party's concerns, and he himself was not the kind of person who would act impulsively or recklessly.

"I understand, I'm someone who values ​​my life a lot."

"Haha, you should value your life. Those who didn't are already dead. Okay, that's settled then. Have you found your team?"

"No, I plan to take a short trip to the outskirts of the wilderness by myself. As for the team, we'll talk about that later..."

"this……"

Wu Tong took a deep breath after hearing this.

After all, exploring the wilderness alone is too dangerous; having teammates provides a certain level of safety.

Seeing that the other party did not speak, Fang Yi roughly guessed what was going on and said, "Don't worry, Instructor Wu, I won't go deep into the city center."

"I understand, but it's too dangerous to act alone. We need to be wary of these monsters."

"There are still people, right?" Fang Yi continued the conversation.

"Yes." Wu Tong nodded in agreement.

Although there are explicit prohibitions against martial artists killing each other, this often happens in unseen places.

It could be for money, or it could be for sex.

In short, human nature is complex.

"Don't worry, I have my own ideas. That's all for now, I need to continue my cultivation."

The two did not say anything more.

Although Wu Tong was worried, he also knew that without experiencing hardships, one could not grow. The best help he could offer was to provide more financial assistance in terms of equipment.

After giving a few brief instructions, Wu Tong returned to the villa.

Day 2.

The equipment that Wu Tong helped purchase was delivered on time, and it was brought to Fang Yi's villa gate as soon as possible.

Fang Yi immediately went downstairs.

Looking at the complete set of equipment, Fang Yi was ready to head to the wilderness area.

After a few days of rest, Fang Yi finally went out on August 7.

About 100 kilometers north of the Jiangnan base city, there is a military base. Not far away is an area known as the wilderness area.

Any area without human habitation can be considered a wilderness area.

Many monsters inhabit these areas, with the most dangerous places being county towns and urban areas. The tall buildings provide cover, allowing the monsters to survive more easily, making these places extremely dangerous.

The nearby military district.

It is also a place for martial artists to rest and replenish their energy. The most eye-catching feature is the 150-60 meter high-speed rail tower, which is also known as the Lighthouse of Hope.

"Boom!"

As the train came to a stop, Fang Yi stepped out.

After glancing at the unfamiliar surroundings, I followed the crowd into the military area and stepped into a quiet little building.

among them.

There were quite a few martial artists, as well as some service personnel in military uniforms.

Some of them come from the Ultimate Martial Arts School or the Thunder Martial Arts School, and even from government forces and underground alliances. They also acquire rare materials from monsters, which is one of their trading channels.

A female waitress immediately attended to Fang Yi.

Fang Yi ordered a simple glass of juice and rested there for a while. Because of the hot weather, he rested until evening before hurrying to the wilderness area.

Not long after, along an abandoned highway.

Not far away, several abandoned villages appeared. In the ruins of the villages, several figures could be vaguely seen flashing by, and some rustling sounds could be heard.

Despite the distance, Fang Yi still noticed the subtle movement.

"We haven't even entered the county-level city yet, just some small villages on the outskirts, and there are already quite a few monsters... The wilderness is really dangerous."

That's what they say.

Fang Yi's calm expression revealed a hint of excitement.

The monsters in the wilderness are not as weak as those in the monster town during the previous assessment. Immediately, a pale purple light appeared in Fang Yi's left eye.

The divine light from his double pupils clung to his fists.

Now, with the 6-series combat suit and gauntlets covering it, its defensive capabilities far exceed those of other combat suits in the same series. At this moment, the divine light of "Creation" permeates it, transforming into inner armor.

The gauntlets are like small heavy shields.

Both heavy and resilient!

Fang Yi took off his black belt and put it away. His left eye, with its double pupil, stared directly at the distant village. Instantly, all the houses in the village were analyzed and seen through, as if they did not exist.

This is the most basic power of the double pupil eye: "seeing through illusion".

Fang Yi could see several huge figures moving around inside.

As we approached the village where the shadows of beasts had flashed by.

Fang Yi smelled a wild odor unique to animals, and immediately realized that he had not misheard. Then, his figure moved as fast as the wind, and he rushed towards the village.

Less than a minute.

Then, the sounds of cattle bleating echoed in my ears.

"It looks like a bovine monster..."

Before the Great Nirvana period, there were many animals in human society, such as pigs, dogs, cats, cows, and sheep, so there were also many monsters of the same kind.

Mutant monsters such as foxes, monkeys, and scorpions are relatively rare.

With the power of his double pupil in his left eye, Fang Yi clearly saw through the monsters in the village. They were a group of strong creatures with skin covered in long silver stripes, blood-red eyes, and sharp, iron-like horns.

"It's a long-striped silver bull, one of the bovine monsters. Its level should be around G, corresponding to a mid-level beast soldier. These monsters are strong and have extremely high impact power. When they charge at full power, they can overturn a small car."

Meanwhile.

The long-striped silver bulls hiding in abandoned houses for repairs.

As if sensing the arrival of the uninvited guests, a series of loud "Moo!" sounds echoed throughout the village.
