The Cosmic Age: Subverting the Universe

"The Galaxy Mercenary Group's trial mission is about to begin." The voice of Smart Xiaobei echoed in Su Che's mind.

Then, a series of trial and assessment contents appeared in front of his retina.

Escape from the poisonous forest

You will be dropped into the heart of the poisonous fog forest.

The forest is shrouded in thick poisonous fog, the toxic gas in it is extremely corrosive to the human body.

You will begin this assessment with full physical strength, but then, as time goes by, your physical strength and senses will gradually be eroded by the poisonous fog until they are completely lost.

In the poisonous fog forest, there are hidden items that can restrain the poisonous fog. This is the key to your escape from the forest.

However, these items are not easily accessible; they may be hidden deep in the forest or guarded by dangerous creatures.

You need to rely on your own wisdom and courage to find these items and overcome the difficulties in the forest.

During the escape, you need to stay calm and alert, and always pay attention to your physical condition and changes in the surrounding environment.

At the same time, you also need to support each other and face difficulties together, because only by unity can you successfully escape from this poisonous fog forest.

After Su Che read the assessment content conveyed by Smart Xiaobei, a strong determination surged in his heart.

He clenched his fists tightly, and his deep eyes flashed with determination and courage.

He knew that this assessment task was not only a test of his physical fitness, but also a challenge to his will and wisdom.

At this moment, Qiao Yi's voice rang in everyone's ears:

“One moment ago you were still in the academy, and now you are about to face a life-and-death test.

You must understand that war can break out at any time. There is no time or opportunity for you to retreat.

The next assessment will be a life-and-death test for you."

Everyone responded in unison: "Yes!" The voices were uniform and firm, revealing their inner determination and courage.

Qiao Yi continued, "Each of you will be equipped with a military backpack, which contains a small amount of food, a compass, a multi-functional engineer shovel, a dagger, a camping tent, a medical kit, a walkie-talkie and other necessary items.

In addition, you will also receive this M1 rifle that I have, and sixty rounds of ammunition."

As Qiao Yi finished speaking, a group of veterans began distributing weapons and backpacks to everyone.

Su Che took his backpack and rifle and felt their heavy weight.

“This is the real thing”

Long Yu Jiuxiao slowly landed in the center of the poisonous fog forest. The car door opened and Su Che and his group got out quickly.

Qiao Yi stood outside the car and shouted loudly:

"We are waiting for you outside. We hope you can complete the task successfully."

After saying that, Long Yu Jiuxiao slowly rose into the air with a deafening dragon roar, and finally disappeared from everyone's sight.

Su Che looked around and saw a dense primeval forest. The air was filled with green smoke, which was the poisonous fog they were facing.

He took a deep breath, sensing the danger in the air.

Qin Luoluo stuck close to Su Che and asked softly, "What should we do next?" There was a hint of nervousness and uneasiness in her voice.

At this time, a man stood up and introduced himself: "My name is Letian, and I am a sports student. I think we should elect a captain to lead everyone. After all, there are more than a dozen of us here, and it won't work without a unified command."

After hearing what Lotte said, everyone agreed. In their opinion, the presence of athletes could at least provide some physical support for everyone.

Soon, someone suggested that Letian be the captain and lead everyone out of the poisonous fog forest.

However, Su Che didn't care about it. He took Qin Luoluo's hand and prepared to walk aside.

Luo Luo didn't ask any more questions, but just followed Su Che silently.

She understood that in this team, Su Che was the only one who truly had a say.

Since he didn't want to compete to be the captain, she naturally wouldn't argue and could just follow him quietly.

Letian watched Qin Luoluo leave with Su Che, feeling somewhat dissatisfied. He chased after them and said:

"Lolo, your chances of survival will be greatly reduced if you leave the team. I suggest that you stay with everyone else for safety."

Qin Luoluo looked back at him and said lightly: "Thank you, but I believe Su Che can take me out."

After saying that, she continued to follow Su Che into the depths of the forest.

As Su Che walked, he said to Qin Luoluo, “We are now in the center of the forest, and the distance is the same no matter which direction we go.

But we chose to move in the direction of the wind, which might help us get out of the poisonous fog faster.

Lolo, you must always pay attention to your surroundings and see if you can find any useful clues.

We must find a way to control this poisonous fog as soon as possible. We only have 12 hours."

Qin Luoluo nodded and agreed: "Okay, I will pay attention to it."

Su Che continued, "In addition, we must now conserve the water and food we carry.

We should make the best use of the resources in the forest. These wild foods are all natural, and some are more nutritious than the dry food we carry."

At this point, Su Che suddenly had an idea. He stopped, his eyes gleaming with excitement:

"Nutritious, natural, and detoxifying... That's right! We may be able to find clues to detoxification from these wild plants or animals!"

Qin Luoluo was also excited when he heard this idea: "You mean, these wild animals and plants may contain ingredients that can restrain the poisonous fog?"

Su Che nodded: "It is very likely. In this forest, every creature has evolved to adapt to the environment.

Since there is poisonous fog in this forest, the animals and plants here may have mechanisms to resist or adapt to the poisonous fog.

We just need to look carefully and we may find the antidote we need.”

In the primeval forest, it is not easy to find fruits that can detoxify the fog.

However, Su Che and Qin Luoluo did not give up. With their keen insight and rich knowledge, they began a difficult search.

They went deeper into the forest in the direction of the wind, carefully observing the plants around them along the way.

There are many kinds of plants in this forest, some are lush and flourishing, while others are short and sturdy.

Su Che knew that different plants might have different medicinal values, and what he was looking for was the fruit that could detoxify the fog.

They walked through a dense forest. Suddenly, Qin Luoluo's eyes lit up. She pointed to a low plant growing next to a rock and said:

"Su Che, look at this plant. Its fruit is brightly colored and has a strange shape. Could it be the detoxifying fruit we are looking for?"

Su Che carefully picked up the bright fruit and put it in his backpack. He already had a plan in mind:

“Once we have enough fruit varieties, we will use the fruits as bait and catch small animals to see which ones they will eat.

This way we can not only verify which fruits are safe to eat, but also understand which fruits are attractive to animals.”

Along the way, they continued to collect various fruits, carefully selecting and identifying each one.

Soon, their backpacks were filled to the brim and they could barely fit more fruit.

Although it was the first time for Qin Luoluo to walk such a long distance, she gritted her teeth and persevered.

At this time, she was so tired that she was sweating profusely. The sweat soaked her clothes, making her delicate skin faintly visible.

Seeing this, Su Che immediately walked forward and put Qin Luoluo's backpack on his shoulders.

"Lolo, take a rest first, I'll carry you." Su Che said gently.

Qin Luoluo looked at Su Che gratefully and nodded. She knew that she had a special physique, but she was still not as strong as Su Che.

Su Che's physique is even more special than mine. He will definitely be a hero in the future, or even an existence that dominates billions of lives. This is one of the reasons why I follow Su Che.

Su Che pointed to a slightly larger open space in front and said, "Let's make bait there. There's enough space there, and it's also convenient for us to observe the reactions of the small animals."
