Swallowed Star (All Chapters) Volume 2

Volume 9 - Chapter 3: Nuolan Shan

Within the hall of the killing fields.

Luo Feng and Thunder God were casually engaged in a conversation, this was also an effective way to relax.

"Luo Feng, Thunder!"

"Haha, what a surprise bumping into you two here." A clear laughter resounded, a black skinned man as big as a bear, along with a pale skinny red haired youth walked side by side over.

"Buleimu, Heruo, come, sit." Luo Feng waved and shouted.

As frequent customers training hard within the killing fields, and also frequent visitors of the big hall, chatting away, they naturally met a few similar elites who spent many hours within the killing fields. Everybody was clear, to be able to spend so much time within the killing fields, meant that one either had a lot of money or a lot of background, that their paths would meet again in the future. The more friends they made, the more paths they opened, the future adventures in the universe may require such friends, hence everybody made the effort to make more friends.

Within the short time of a month, Luo Feng had made over thirty friends, the two standing before them were considered the closer ones.

"Hong hasn't come out?" Buleimu exclaimed loudly.

"He hasn't come out in 8 days." Thunder god said.

"That's crazy." Heruo couldn't help but laugh, "Right, let me tell you two something...Buleimu and I won't be coming to the killing fields for quite a bit." The sturdy and huge Buleimu beside him nodded.

"What's wrong?" Luo Feng and Thunder God were shocked.

These two were very similar to them, frequently staying for long periods within the killing fields.

"Buleimu and I have been ordered by our teacher to go and become universe mercenary trainees by attending the mercenary trainee examination." Heruo said softly, "This universe mercenary trainee examination is much more dangerous than the usual universe explorer missions, I heard the mortality rate and elimination rate is extremely high. If, a month later, neither Buleimu nor I, come to the killing fields, we'd most likely have died from the examinations. I'm telling you today just to let you know that if we disappear, you'd think we left without saying our goodbyes, totally unfriendly, haha..."

"For real?"

Luo Feng and Thunder God were very shocked.

The universe mercenary trainee examination, was it that absurd?

"It is indeed dangerous, however, the Universe levels, the Domain and sector lords, over 99% of them are mercenaries." Heruo's gaze was serious, "If I don't take a gamble, and become some small guard or soldier, constantly at others' beck and call, I'll regret it. If I have to be somebody, I'll go all out, if I want to live well free and easy, I have to risk it all, I have to battle!"

"Yeah." Buleimu nodded his head seriously.

Luo Feng and Thunder god glanced at each other.

As the two of them were high above everyone within earth, they didn't have any sort of pressure from others. Unlike Heruo and Buleimu who had such heavy upbringing, the pressure from their living environment was much more than Luo Feng and the others. The heavy upbringing from the huge powers, with them spending large amounts of money and resources etc, if they didn't get a satisfactory result, the expelled and rejected heirs' fates definitely aren't good.

"Heruo, Buleimu, the trainee examinations, are they that dangerous?" Thunder God was suspicious.

The Universe Mercenary Alliance.

The ranks were separated into explorers, trainee mercenaries, 1 star mercenary, 2 star mercenary and 3 star mercenary. Of which, the explorers weren't required to take any examination, all they had to do was to go sign up and they'd immediately become explorers. The trainee mercenaries were required to take the examination, the 1 star mercenaries too were required...every rank required taking the exams!
