Chapter 28 Regional Ranking, Soaring to First Place
"call"
Lin Yiming gasped for breath and slumped onto the ground. The previous blow had used up all his strength.
Looking at the corpse of the giant rodent spider beside him, with the obsidian spear still firmly stuck on it, there is only one word to describe his current mood, that is!
Cool!
A first-level advanced monster was hunted down by him just like that. The whole process was much simpler and faster than he had imagined.
Turn on your smartwatch.
His ranking soared to first place in an instant, leaving the second place Jiang Chengdao nearly 200 points behind.
NO.1: Lin Yiming - Overall score: 720 points
NO.2: Jiang Chengdao - Overall score: 542 points
NO.3: Yu Yiyang——Comprehensive score: 437 points
"I didn't expect that I could get so many comprehensive scores by hunting a first-level high-level exotic beast. It really is true that wealth and honor come in the face of danger!"
Lin Yiming was extremely satisfied. There was still more than an hour left before the end of the assessment. With his current score, even if he stopped hunting exotic beasts during the remaining assessment time, he would still be ranked first in this area. He would have no problem entering the top 30 in Jinling Base City in terms of overall ranking.
The Nether Cat was released from the gestation space. When it saw the corpse of the giant rodent spider in front of it, it suddenly froze in place, its eyes wide open, its hair slightly standing up, and its sharp claws instinctively stretched out from the paws.
Within a breath of time, it felt something was wrong. This ferocious first-level advanced alien beast was actually dead, and its body had lost its vitality.
The Nether Cat turned its head to look at Lin Yiming, then quickly turned its head to look at the corpse of the giant rodent spider. It repeated this several times. It was shocked and couldn't believe that the giant rodent spider was successfully killed by its own owner.
Lin Yiming was amused by this scene.
The Nether Cat is his clone created through the gestation space. It not only has its own independent thoughts, but can also sense his strength as the original body.
So in the eyes of the Phantom Cat, its master had no chance of winning against this giant rodent spider. It would be good enough if he could escape, let alone hunt it!
"Go and help me dig out its animal core."
Lin Yiming smiled and instructed the Nether Cat.
Upon receiving the order, the Nether Cat nodded intelligently, then jumped up and moved its entire body close to the corpse of the giant rodent spider. Its nose kept moving, trying to determine the specific location of the beast core in the corpse.
Lin Yiming, who was recovering his strength, opened the system panel. He wanted to know how much energy substances a first-level advanced rodent giant spider could bring him.
[Energy matter: 122]
[Superpower potential level: F (420/10000)]
"120 points? Are you sending away beggars? This system is also a dog capitalist!"
Lin Yiming looked at the panel and couldn't help but curse in his heart.
Energy matter is the only currency of the system, so its preciousness and importance are self-evident. It is needed for both breeding biological clones and upgrading the level of supernatural potential.
Through the birth of the Phantom Cat's clone, he knew that the energy and substances needed to breed clones of other creatures in the future would be just as much.
It would take a full 90 days to breed a low-level first-order Nether Cat without the use of energy substances. He couldn't even imagine how astronomical the amount of energy substances required would be if he wanted to breed a fifth-order or sixth-order, or even a legendary beast in the future.
work to earn a living!
Always working!
Even if you travel to another world and possess a powerful and abnormal system, you cannot escape the fate of working!
In a corner of the breeding space, there were already a lot of pieces of meat, skeletons, etc. of exotic beasts piled up. These were all collected by Lin Yiming after hunting exotic beasts during the assessment.
Whether it is useful or not is another matter! But it must be there!
This is what he really thinks.
The cost of nurturing a clone of a strange beast through a gestation space is very high. Given the extreme shortage of energy and materials in the early stages, he has to think twice about every clone he wants to nurture.
He still understands the principle that quality is more important than quantity.
Close the system panel and withdraw consciousness from the gestation space.
The Nether Cat had already dug out the core of the giant rodent spider and placed it at Lin Yiming's feet. It was licking the blood remaining on the tips of its claws while also being alert to whether the surrounding environment was safe.
Lin Yiming picked up the beast core on the ground and played with it in his hand for a while.
The beast cores of alien beasts contain their understanding of their own innate supernatural powers. After absorbing them, human supernatural beings can better control and use their supernatural powers.
For example, the innate ability of the Nether Cat is 'invisibility', so its beast core can be of great benefit to humans who have awakened similar abilities such as 'invisibility' and 'stealth'.
After putting away the core of the giant rodent spider, Lin Yiming stood up from the ground and pulled out the obsidian spear that was stuck in the corpse.
Then he swung at one of the giant rodent spider's legs with his backhand, cut it off, and put it into the breeding space together with the corpses of other strange beasts.
----------
A ruined town, a residential area somewhere.
Jiang Chengdao used a dagger to cut open the head of a bear-like monster at his feet and took out the beast core from it.
"I have successfully hunted down another first-level intermediate alien beast. I must not let Yu Yiyang surpass me in the first place." He muttered to himself.
After putting the beast core into the combat backpack, he habitually raised his right hand and checked the current real-time ranking. Yu's score was very close to his. The two had been competing for the first place, but fortunately, the other was always a few points behind him.
"How can it be!"
He suddenly shouted loudly, his eyes widened as if he had seen something incredible, and his whole body was a little frozen.
"Who is this candidate named Lin Yiming? How could he suddenly score nearly 200 points higher than me?"
He had been ranked first since the assessment began, and his face was full of disbelief. He had been focusing on Yu Yiyang and had no impression of this candidate named Lin Yiming.
“Did he hunt down a first-level high-level exotic beast?
How is this possible! Could it be that he has awakened an A-level potential ability?
But A-level potential already has the qualification to be admitted, why is he still competing with us for the first place?"
Jiang Chengdao was speechless. He didn't understand why the other party, who clearly had the ability to be admitted, would still come to participate in the combat assessment!
He also knew that it was impossible to catch up with the score difference of nearly 200 points.
Now, he also felt what Yu Yiyang felt when he was always in second place, but the latter at least still had hope of catching up. In his situation, he couldn't even see the slightest hope of catching up.
Another fighting area in town.
"Captain Fang, look! Lin Yiming's ranking has soared to first place!"
"Look at me, I am so embarrassed. If I had known that when the captain invited me, I would not have said anything. Who would have known that his ability with F-level potential could be so strong! He is simply a pervert!"
Fang Qingluan, who was checking the map and preparing to go to the next location, was shocked. A hint of joy flashed in her eyes, and she muttered softly, "Not bad!"
