Super Gene Hunting Ground-Chapter 119 Youthful Ambition

Chapter 119: Chapter 119 Youthful Ambition

Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Yang Xiao returned to his tent, sat cross-legged on the ground, focused inward, and checked his Genetic Attribute System.

Strength 9, Agility 12, Defense 6, Wisdom 6.

These were the new achievements of the past month.

In addition, the bracelet added +2 Agility, and the sparrow bow added +3 Agility, bringing the total Agility attribute to 17 points.

In the skills section, Golden Bee Swordsmanship remained at level 2, while Feather Arrow Skill had reached level 6.

Besides that, there was no other prompt information.

"What is with my eyes? Why have they occasionally given me a peculiar feeling recently, where actions that seem incredibly fast to others appear in slow motion to me, like fight scenes in martial arts movies? What’s going on here?"

Yang Xiao murmured to himself.

This peculiar visual phenomenon did not occur every day; it appeared occasionally and was beyond his control. During the battle between Long Yongjun and Zhou Qiang today, this special visual effect suddenly emerged again.

"Why hasn’t my Beast Soul awakened? Could this special visual effect be related to my Beast Soul gene?"

Yang Xiao considered many possibilities but ultimately had no definite answer, so he temporarily gave up pondering the issue.

Ma Junhui, worthy of being a talent in civil engineering, carefully inspected the condition of the mountains surrounding the playground with Huang Wen. By the afternoon, he began designing a cave plan and informed Yang Xiao during dinner that he already had a rough sketch.

After dinner, Yang Xiao gathered Xiao Zhe, Zhao Gang, and Huang Wen to review Ma Junhui’s cave sketch together.

Ma Junhui pointed at his sketch and confidently explained:

"Since the purpose of building the cave is to use geothermal heating, I suggest going deep into the mountain,"

"To ensure adequate air and ventilation, the cave should be U-shaped, with both entrances outside the mountain for better ventilation, and it should be excavated tall and wide,"

"To prevent collapse, the excavation of the cave should be like building a deep mountain tunnel, with simultaneous excavation and reinforced concrete arch casting,"

"Build a ground dragon on the cave floor, so that burning a small amount of wood will make the entire cave very warm. To prevent carbon dioxide poisoning, the ground dragon is sealed within the cave, with a groove below as a venting duct for the ground dragon,"

.....

Ma Junhui, displaying his professional expertise, planned the public activity space, sleeping area, cooking and dining area, and toilets in the cave.

Yang Xiao and the others were very impressed. Originally, they just intended to dig a cave to avoid the cold; they didn’t expect it to be so complex.

To prevent dampness, a drainage ditch was constructed inside the cave, and the beds were built a meter above the ground using cement to form a flat platform. Underneath the platform was the ground dragon, wood could be burned there to make it as warm as the heated bed in Tis City.

For the safety of the cave, two wide iron doors were specially designed. The iron doors had barriers to block any sudden intrusion by large mutated creatures.

"Ma Junhui, you’re really something!"

Yang Xiao exclaimed in admiration.

Xiao Zhe, Zhao Gang, and Huang Wen nodded in approval as well.

Ma Junhui laughed and said:

"It’s just a cave; it’s a piece of cake for people like us to design. However, this cave has a drawback that cannot be solved."

"What drawback?"

"It’s the issue of the toilet. There’s no water source inside the cave. If the toilet were built inside, over time, the entire cave would smell terrible."

Yang Xiao and the others nodded in agreement.

"In that case, we’ll build the toilet outside. In the future, we’ll plant potatoes and vegetables on the nearby slopes, which will also be convenient to utilize."

....

The design plan was basically finalized, and the next day, a general assembly was held. More than half of the people would help build the cave and transport building materials, while a portion of the combat team continued to hunt mutated creatures outside.

Xu Nanqiang was responsible for construction work, and Ma Junhui was the designer. Thus, the grand task of building caves at Kongming Academy commenced vigorously.

After Yang Xiao confirmed these matters, he led Long Yongjun, Chen Fei, Qin Yu, and Deng Xiao to Biyun Mountain the next day to hunt mutated creatures.

Meanwhile, Huang Wen led the Bird Team in gradually dispersing the dense fog over tens of square kilometers nearby in a planned manner.

The wind grew stronger, and the temperature dropped little by little, becoming colder each day.

...

Zhou Qiang watched as Long Yongjun and Yang Xiao, along with others, disappeared from the Transmission Array, feeling an inexplicable sense of loss.

Did he really lose to Long Yongjun? Is the Dog Blood Blade Technique really that powerful?

As the onlookers gradually dispersed, Zhou Qiang turned to leave and looked up to find Xia Luo standing in front of him, observing him.

"Boss?"

Xia Luo nodded and said:

"Do you know why you lost?"

Zhou Qiang replied dejectedly:

"Sigh, my skills are inferior; I won’t make excuses."

"Wrong. Your overall combat power is higher than Long Yongjun’s. However, your mindset is off. You were too obsessed with winning and abandoned the advantage of your agility for a hard fight with him, which naturally led to defeat.

Additionally..."

Xia Luo stopped mid-sentence.

"Boss, just tell me directly. I can handle criticism."

Xia Luo smiled wryly and said:

"Long Yongjun is a fighter, not a thinker. However, when two opponents meet, the bravest wins! He’s unafraid of death, allowing him to find life in an impossible situation, whereas you..."

He didn’t finish his sentence.

Zhou Qiang blushed in embarrassment and said:

"Boss, I understand now."

"Good, remember this: when two people fight, you need both strategy and courage!"

As they spoke, they walked towards the nearby office.

"Zhou Qiang, what do you think about Yang Xiao’s mention of a potentially long winter ahead?"

"That, I’m not sure. But there seems to be some logic in his speculation. It’s a pity our school doesn’t have a meteorology department; otherwise, we might investigate a bit."

"Do you think we should also dig cellars like Yang Xiao’s doing?"

"I’m not sure about that; I’ll leave everything to you, Boss."

Xia Luo fell silent for a moment, then said:

"There are over two thousand people in our school. Digging a cellar like that is almost impossible. Even with the tools and materials, it would take a lot of time, which we could use to hunt more mutated creatures and enhance our Genetic Evolution level. Don’t forget, the higher the level in the Genetic Plan, the stronger the ability to resist the cold."

Zhou Qiang nodded in agreement.

Xia Luo pondered a bit more and said:

"In the meantime, ensure the supply of Genetic Fragments for our elite squad. Additionally, take measures to store food well and assign people to chop wood in the surrounding forests." ƒrēenovelkiss.com

Zhou Qiang hesitated for a moment and said:

"Boss, it seems that the mutated creatures outside have significantly decreased, and the income from Genetic Fragments isn’t what it used to be. Most people can’t even get a few Genetic Fragments a day."

"That’s unavoidable. If necessary, temporarily halt the Genetic Fragment supply for some personnel. We must ensure the supply for the elite squad and other elite talents. Only if they grow stronger will we have the strength to compete after the winter."

"Compete for the world?"

Zhou Qiang’s heart leaped at the mention of this term.
