ea."How could the Third Princess be in the city This... I truly don't know. I'll send people to join you and enter the city together to bring the Third Princess out.""No, if the Third Princess is alr...Under the starlight's help, Xinghe cast a web directly and caught over twenty serrated fish at once.

The black-haired Gan Yun commanded her Star Beast Ao Xiang to attack the sawtooth fish leaping onto the shore from low altitude. The hurricane created by the giant wings hung the sawtooth fish on the trees, and Ao Xiang also grabbed two with its claws and accurately dropped them in front of its master.

The male and female's contracted star beasts weren't attack-type, but they weren't idle either. Holding their respective weapons, they kept watch while cleaning up the sawtooth fish captured by others.

"Hurricane, come back!"

Ripple greeted him, and the whirlpool immediately whipped its tail back and ran away, no longer continuing to stir up trouble by the river.

After half an hour, the sawfish that hadn't caught any prey retreated unwillingly back into the river.

How are you all doing

While using a long stick to gather the sawtooth fish together, ripples asked.

"That's okay!"

"No one was hurt!"

"Luckily, we managed to lure the sawfish onto land, otherwise we would have been in trouble."

Gan Yun smiled and said, they were quite a distance from the river, at least two kilometers.

His star beast, Ao Xiang, is grabbing the sawtooth fish that's gnawing on the hanging tree and throwing it to its master.

"Hurry up and clean the sawtooth fish, there's enough to last us until the assessment is over."

Xinghe excitedly said that his heart of hearts had snagged quite a few, at least twenty.

Other people's harvests were also not bad, at least ten fish per person is no problem.

With food, everyone was motivated. Gan Yun's Ao Xiang was in charge of keeping watch, while the others were independently processing the sawtooth fish they had caught.

Remove the two most valuable teeth, store them separately, and then gut the rest. After cleaning it thoroughly, put it into the dimensional pouch.

The examiner said we couldn't use the items inside the spatial pouch, but didn't say anything about putting things inside it. So everyone got a little crafty and divided up the harvested serrated fish meat before putting it into their own spatial pouches. If something unexpected happened and we got separated, at least we wouldn't starve.

"We have food now and the water problem is solved. Now we'd best find somewhere to spend the night before dark, it's definitely not safe here at night."

Qingxuan, the purple-haired girl, blushed as she expressed her opinion.

"Qingxuan, has your Zilin found a good place"

Kōki turned her head and asked.

"Zi Lin said that they should continue walking another hundred kilometers, where there was a mountain range of stones. They could dig a cave halfway up the mountain for safety."

Qing Xuan spoke in a low voice.

Then let Zi Lin lead the way for us!

Kouki finished speaking and then sought everyone's opinions.

Of course, everyone agreed. They had food and shelter, at least the first day was safe.

"Then let's get going as quickly as possible. The smell here is a bit heavy, don't attract any other monsters."

Star River immediately said.

Everyone was lightly equipped, carrying food, and following Qingxuan upstream along the river.

The last boy, Sui Yu, suddenly spoke:

"Hold on everyone, do you see a space button in the river"

Sui Yu's words successfully made everyone stop in their tracks. Everyone looked towards the center of the river, but they didn't get closer. Those sawtooth fish were eyeing them menacingly, ready to snatch anyone who dared to approach into the water.

"This must be the task content mentioned by the examiner, or perhaps supplies."

Gan Yun's eyes lit up as she said.

Liàn Yī immediately had an idea. She said to Gān Yùn:

Let me know if you'd like me to translate any other text!

"Excuse me, could you please have your Ao Xiang and my Duo Duo work together"

"Well Of course, how would you like to cooperate"

Gan Yun replied without any hesitation.

"Have Ao-xiang fly with Duo-duo across the center of the river, preferably staying there for a while so Duo-duo can retrieve that space key."

"Okay, your doudou."

Then, with a gentle touch, Gan Yun stroked the little golden falcon perched on her shoulder. "What is it" she asked softly.

Liàn's ripples raised her wrist, and only then did Duoduo lift the flower tray and wave it around to greet the few people nearby.

This is when everyone realized that Ripple had another alien companion.

Duo Duo, at the beckoning of the ripples, directly wrapped her arms around Ao Xiang's golden claws.

Ao Xiang was still a little uncomfortable, shaking off the claws that were clinging to him, and then he was soothed by Gan.

Immediately, Ao Xiang spread its wings and flew off from the owner's shoulder. After circling in the air for a week, it flew toward the center of the river.

Then everyone saw Duo Duo's roots and stems rapidly grow, inserting into the water and wrapping around the space button. Immediately, it retracted. Ao Xiang stayed in the middle of the river for five seconds according to the master's instructions, then quickly pulled Duo Duo back.

Ripple saw rows of sawfish clinging to the flower paths, twitching her mouth. She immediately rushed over and knocked out those fish with a few strikes, this time she didn't bother cleaning them up and put them into her space button.

Everyone gathered around, this was their first space button after all!

Kouki, under everyone's gaze, opened the spatial button, and inside burst out some equipment. There were capsule tents, drinking water, and a map, but only one-fourth of it was complete. Finally, there was a holographic impressioner.

R ripples soothed the grumbling Dodo, and now it was time to see the harvest. Just then, Kouki activated the Holographic Imprinter, and before everyone stood a stern-faced male teacher. After surveying the crowd, he spoke:

"Congratulations everyone, you have been given the most difficult task in this assessment. But correspondingly, as long as you perform well, even if you ultimately fail to complete the task, passing the assessment will be no problem."

The teacher's words made everyone's mood feel like a rollercoaster.

Alright, no more chit-chat. Your mission this time is to find the secret base of the anti-alliance organization hidden on this planet. If you find it, you'll pass the evaluation. If you can successfully capture it, your grade will be excellent.

"I can only give you a rough location of the secret base. As for how to act and find it, that's up to you. Good luck!"

After that, the holographic image ended.

We all looked at each other, and finally our eyes turned to Ripple who was studying the map.

"Looking at me like that You don't expect me to do this all by myself, do you"

"No!"

Of course not!

"How is that possible"

Everyone immediately voiced their opinions.

We hope you will serve as the leader of this task force.

Kouki got straight to the point.

She wasn't a pretentious person to begin with. She was simply outmatched, both in skill and in the power of her star beast compared to others. Naturally, she followed whoever was stronger.

Everyone else nodded in agreement, it was quite unanimous at this moment.

Liàn Yī thought about it and didn't refuse, after all, taking down the other party's lair would be impossible to do alone.

“Let me be the captain, no problem. Before making any decisions, I will definitely consult everyone and try my best to minimize the risks. Once the plan is made, everyone must cooperate unconditionally!”

"No problem!"

"Of course, it's fine. The plan was approved by everyone. If anything goes wrong, it won't be your fault alone."

"Obey the captain's orders."

As you all know, there's never a foolproof plan. As the captain, I will definitely make adjustments based on the situation. That's when I need your unconditional obedience!e, didn't you"Wang Meimei pursed her lips and smiled lightly."Whoosh!" A sound broke the tranquility of the advancing troop. An arrow flew past and landed beside Bai Long's horse's hoof, startling the...
