To the north of Shu County, in the Valley of Black Stone.
As one of the first leveling points opened after Fang Jin arrived in his hometown in Shu County, the monsters here are now far behind the pace of professional advancement.
Moreover, the number of monsters on the opposite side of the space passage at the bottom of the Blackstone Valley Mine is not unlimited.
Now, three years after the end of the world, the number of monsters in the mines is extremely small.
Over time, almost no professionals come here to practice leveling anymore.
Even the security office of the Saviors Guild only releases a task regularly and sends a few gray iron professionals here to clean it up.
Make sure there are no accidents or missed monsters wandering outside the mine.
But as the graduation trial approaches, this place was selected by the Savior Guild as one of the twenty trial locations, and the Blackstone Valley, which had been silent for a long time, became lively again.
Led by eight bronze-level men, a total of dozens of professionals broke into this mine that extended in all directions.
"Listen, kill all monsters above level 3 without leaving anything behind.
Otherwise, if something goes wrong, you and I will all be responsible.
Remember to leave two bronze-level thieves guarding the space passage at the bottom.
If there is anything beyond When monsters of higher level come, be sure to eliminate them in time.”
Saying this, the leader of the bronze ranks waved his hand, and the eight teams immediately split up and took action.
Under their deliberate choice, all first- and second-level monsters were retained to ensure that the two hundred professionals who came here for the trial would not run out of monsters to kill.
The monsters that exceeded the standard were eliminated mercilessly.
With their current strength, the average level 5 or 6 monsters in Blackstone Valley are no longer their match.
In less than a day, the mines in Blackstone Valley have been completely cleared.
Of course, due to the complex terrain in the mine, even with a relatively complete map, these members cannot guarantee that everything will be foolproof.
When the trial actually begins, there will naturally be thieves with stealth skills secretly patrolling and protecting them.
A little later, the removal of monsters at other trial sites was also completed.
Compared with open sites on the surface, underground mines are undoubtedly more difficult, and there is no way to monitor the entire area through a reconnaissance war eagle.
But precisely for this reason, this is the place where the trainees' performance can be most tested.
When allocating the list of 4851 trainees, the instructors followed the instructions of the guild and intentionally assigned some relatively promising seed members here.
If they can successfully graduate, they will naturally be more valued in the guild in the future.
Finally, the eager trainees waited until the fourth day.
After suffering for half a year, each of them got up early, ate the sumptuous breakfast specially prepared by the Savior Guild, and with their own preparations, boarded the corresponding trial fleet at the assigned venue.
In addition to their own preparations, before entering the trial site, each of them can also receive a standard supply package: including two days of drinking water and rations, a map, a low-quality wound medicine, a lighting stone, a Bronze Whistle for Help As for whether the rescue professionals or more monsters come first, it depends on everyone's destiny.
"The final trial requires you to kill a monster with real swords and guns, which is very dangerous.
It's still too late to quit now, otherwise once you enter the trial ground, your life and death will really be at stake.
There are some who quit. "?"
Although I didn’t think anyone would back down at the last minute, the senior guild leaders who were in charge of each trial site still went through the process.
And the final result was no surprise.
You must know that this first batch of 4,851 people were carefully selected from more than 90,000 registered survivors, and the standards were extremely strict.
Being able to persist under Hill's cruel training until now, it can be said that each of them has the strength of a warrior before the end of the world.
It is hard to imagine that such a warrior would shrink back just because of a threat.
"Well then, good luck to you all."
After sending their respective blessings, the trainees, who were either excited, nervous, apprehensive, or eager to try, lined up to enter the trial area with an order.
Then they immediately dispersed according to their own plans.
Either alone or in groups of three or two, they entered the depths of the trial site.
The trial point that Liu Feihong was assigned to happened to be in the mine of Black Stone Valley.
Since he had made all the preparations, Liu Feihong felt calmer than expected.
He took a deep breath, held an ordinary large ring knife distributed by the guild, and resolutely stepped into the dim mine.
After the first dozen steps, the depths of the mine quickly became dark.
The trainees who entered before him had already taken out the lighting stones in unison.

But Liu Feihong knew that the inferior lighting stones assigned to them could only provide limited illumination time.
With the attitude of saving whatever he can, he followed the people in front of him to get the light.
It wasn't until he entered the first fork in the road that he took out his lighting stone.
The white and soft light dispelled the darkness in the gloomy mine and gave Liu Feihong a sense of security.
After turning several forks in succession, the voices of other trialists were too subtle to be heard.
And this also means that he has slowly left the safe area and entered a dangerous area where monsters may appear at any time.
Liu Feihong calmed down, recalled the common types of monsters in Blackstone Valley that he had long memorized, as well as their weaknesses and methods of dealing with them, and then took action quickly.
Perhaps he was lucky.
Not long after walking, he saw a half-meter-long, gray-colored monster with sharp mouthparts at the end of a fork in the road. pincer larvae The mature form of this monster is a level 5 monster, which is obviously not something that non-professionals can fight against.
It was all killed in the elimination operation a day ago.
But this pincer larvae is much weaker, its shell is also relatively fragile, and it only has level 2 strength.
Otherwise, that's it Although the ideal target is level 1 monsters, which have the greatest certainty and low risk, Liu Feihong knows that now is not the time when the apocalypse has just arrived, and the weakest level 1 monsters are not so easy to encounter.
However, something happened to Liu Feihong's chagrin.
He wandered here for a while, and then he heard brisk footsteps behind him.
Soon, two unfamiliar-looking professionals who were probably assigned from other training sites rushed over from the darkness behind.
When they saw Liu Feihong's figure, they were stunned for a moment, and then they noticed the pincer larvae at the end of the branch road not far away, and they were overjoyed.
Liu Feihong was shocked.
These two people were obviously familiar with each other.
In addition to the sword, one of them also carried a simple steel shield, apparently with the idea of dividing labor and taking turns to provide cover.
In this way, even if you encounter danger when killing independently, the other person can provide timely cover.
Even if this independent kill will fail because of this, at least the person will not die and can retreat and come back.
This is trouble.
Seeing a trace of greed flash across their faces, Liu Feihong suddenly felt helpless.
Although the rules of the trial stipulate that malicious grabbing of monsters is not allowed, and internal fighting and killing are strictly prohibited, the word "malicious" is really cleverly used.
What's more, Liu Feihong really didn't have time to enter the battle.
In this case, the two people who were a step slower would naturally not be considered as grabbing monsters
