Bang!
Before the two could exchange more than a couple of sentences, a loud explosion suddenly echoed from afar. A beam of light, like a laser, shot diagonally from the distance towards the sky.
Lin Feng instantly turned his head, his gaze piercing through countless obstacles.
The sound originated from a weapon attack a kilometer away.
"They're already fighting?" Lin Feng found it somewhat strange.
Although this planet wasn't large, the probability of thirty-five random teams encountering each other in pairs was still quite low.
"Want to join in?!" Ophilia put on a pair of sunglasses and coolly raised the massive cannon in her hand.
These sunglasses had functions for analyzing weaknesses, surveying terrain, and detecting life forms.
"Let's go!" Lin Feng didn't hesitate.
Fighting right next to him, wasn't this just points being delivered to his doorstep!
The two hit it off immediately and rushed towards the location of the engagement.
Ophilia didn't even need to explore; the continuous booming sounds served as their guide.
"Be careful, that cannon fire sounds like a Annihilation Cannon."
While on the move, Ophilia warned him.
"And this planet has been seeded with some star beasts of varying strengths. When fighting, remember to guard against their sneak attacks!"
"Got it, got it, you're so naggy!" Lin Feng waved his hand impatiently, simultaneously activating his Super Sensory ability, temporarily setting its range to encompass a ten-kilometer radius around him.
Indeed, besides the black-robed figures fighting, there were pairs of beastly eyes lurking in the shadows.
Bang!
A cannon blast grazed Ophilia's forehead.
"Damn it!" Ophilia cried out, flailing as she dodged to the side.
A kilometer away, the two arrived in no time.
At such close proximity, it was inevitable that they would be caught in the crossfire.
As they approached the battlefield, the scene before them opened up.
Two squads, six people, were locked in combat. Two in the air and four on the ground, with cannon fire erupting everywhere, leaving the surrounding trees disfigured and forming a central zone of engagement.
The trees on this planet hadn't undergone reinforcement; only the surface had been strengthened.
Looking at the Annihilation Cannon blast that hit the ground, on a normal planet, it would have probably created a gaping hole.
Lin Feng stepped forward, heading directly towards the center of the battle.
Excellent, he could already see six hundred points being added to his tally!
However, before he could take two steps, Ophilia, who was behind him, grabbed his arm.
"Hey, what are you doing!" Ophilia's expression was full of confusion.
"What am I doing? Aren't we here to get points?" Lin Feng was even more confused than Ophilia.
"Shouldn't we wait for them to finish fighting and then ambush them?" Ophilia asked.
A question mark popped up on Lin Feng's forehead.
It had to be this complicated?
"It's not that complicated. You wait here, I'll go buy an orange... collect some points and be back!"
Lin Feng gave Ophilia a knowing look and walked forward with his hands in his pockets.
Ophilia shook her head from behind.
Hopeless. Isn't a surprise attack more satisfying? Why must he charge in headfirst?
However, Ophilia then recalled Lin Feng's two kicks.
Immediately, Ophilia hid behind a tree and began to watch the show.
Meanwhile, Lin Feng had leisurely walked up to the combat zone.
The others were fighting non-stop, with cannons blazing and a large area of the ground scorched.
He, on the other hand, was like a tourist, completely out of place with the scene before him.
"Yo, you guys fighting?"
Lin Feng spoke, his voice not loud but clearly audible to everyone present.
*Ga!* The sound of cannon fire abruptly ceased.
Six pairs of eyes snapped to look at him.
"Shanhai!"
Damn it, why was it this jinx?
"Shanhai... what do you want?"
"Two squads fighting, and you can't interfere before the battle stops!"
"Didn't you hear the rules just now?"
From within the black robes, someone spoke.
It was him, who had been relentlessly firing his cannon earlier.
His gaze swept around Lin Feng, trying to see if his teammate was hidden somewhere, preparing for a sneak attack.
"What do you want?" Lin Feng retorted in confusion.
"Of course, I'm here to earn points. Isn't the first round of the selection all about getting points?"
"Come on, line up and transfer your points to me, then you can continue fighting after you're done!"
Lin Feng flashed his personal terminal and tapped on it.
"As for the rules? My rule is the rule! Any problems?"
His words left the black-robed individuals bewildered.
They weren't even obeying the organizers' words?
This... it seemed they had underestimated Shanhai's arrogance.
But then again, it seemed normal. This wasn't the first time Shanhai had broken the rules.
Didn't he kick his own faction members earlier, and then kick members of an auxiliary team?
As if recalling Lin Feng's two kicks, the black-robed figure who had been firing the cannon, his face dark, had a flicker of apprehension in his eyes.
"Shanhai, don't be too arrogant."
"There are six of us here, and only you. How about we mind our own business?"
Lin Feng sneered, "No way, can't you understand human language? Hand over the points!"
"You only get one chance, my time is precious!"
Lin Feng was too lazy to fight if he didn't have to.
They were too weak, completely lacking any interest in fighting.
"Don't you understand what I'm saying? There are six people on my side!"
The cannon-firing black-robed figure narrowed his eyes, emitting a dangerous glint.
He exchanged glances with the three people from the other fighting squad, all of whom nodded silently.
Facing Shanhai, they could choose to band together for warmth.
If they were fewer in number, they would just be fodder for Lin Feng.
But if they were more numerous, not to mention gaining an advantage, at least they could buy themselves an opportunity to escape.
With a single glance, a consensus was reached between the two sides.
The other squad, which had been fighting fiercely moments ago, silently descended and stood not far from the cannon-firing black-robed figure, watching Lin Feng while also guarding against the cannon-firing black-robed figure.
The black-robed figures from both squads, each with their own hidden motives, were not harboring good intentions.
And Lin Feng finally took his hand out of his pocket.
"Fine, I understand."
"It looks like I have no choice but to kick you!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Feng's figure vanished from his spot.
The cannon-firing black-robed figure's pupils instantly contracted, and then, his vision went black.
Lin Feng's large foot landed directly on his face.
With a bang, the cannon-firing black-robed figure was kicked to the ground by Lin Feng.
He had kicked him diagonally on purpose.
If he had kicked him flying, Lin Feng would have had to run over to collect the points, which was too much trouble.
Looking at the cannon-firing black-robed figure, who had lost consciousness after one kick, Lin Feng pouted.
"That's it?"
He picked him up and threw him into the woods behind them.
"Ophilia, transfer his points!"
"You got it!"
A sneaky head popped out from behind a large tree and, with a swift movement, dragged the unconscious cannon-firing black-robed figure into the woods.
The action was as if rehearsed, with no hint of hesitation.
Lin Feng nodded in satisfaction.
Having a little subordinate to do the work was quite good.
