Bai Ye nodded and said, "Then that's settled. Contact me if you get any news."
Bai Ye got up again and pushed the door open to leave.
Although he had agreed to Jin Sha's request to kill Liu Shiyue, the name Liu Shiyue felt unfamiliar to Bai Ye.
As the vice president of the Hidden Dragon Society, Bai Ye should definitely know him.
However, in Bai Ye's memories from his previous life, there were three vice presidents of the Hidden Dragon Society: Lin Lindong, Xia Cheng, and Leicestervis Levius.
This meant that Liu Shiyue was not a person Bai Ye recalled, and he knew nothing about this name.
Still, it wasn't entirely unexpected.
The Hidden Dragon Society had undergone several reforms as it developed, evolving from relying solely on its own world to recruiting members.
Survival of the fittest meant that people in many positions were replaced.
Take the three names in Bai Ye's memory: Lin Lindong, Xia Cheng, and Leicestervis were not from the world of abilities, and all were considered masters in their own right before joining the Hidden Dragon Society.
Among them, Xia Cheng had a bit of a connection with Bai Ye.
This was a genuine connection.
After Bai Ye became one of the Twin Whites of the East District, many people wanted to align themselves with Bai Ye, as following a strong individual was a way of survival.
Xia Cheng was one of them, having fought for Bai Ye and also receiving Bai Ye's protection.
As for how he later joined the Hidden Dragon Society, it was quite normal; the Hidden Dragon Society offered too much.
At that time, Bai Ye didn't blame Xia Cheng. Xia Cheng's trump cards were the supreme quality ultimate skills Six-Meridian Divine Sword and Spiritual Rhino Finger.
The Hidden Dragon Society tempted Xia Cheng with the incomplete final sword of the Six-Meridian Divine Sword and the incomplete final finger of the Spiritual Rhino Finger.
It was no wonder Xia Cheng couldn't refuse. Who would give up the chance to transform from a first-class master into a top-tier expert?
Bai Ye shook his head and then came back to his senses.
The topic had strayed too far; he needed to focus on the present.
In short, Bai Ye had no impression of the person named Liu Shiyue. Since that was the case, he would have to borrow the influence of the Evil Spirit Group.
Bai Ye thought to himself as he left the restaurant.
"Well then, time to get moving!"
Bai Ye stretched and then left the ancient town.
The East District, as the name suggested, was the easternmost part of the World Battlefield.
Bai Ye had been to Mount Ten-Spider in his previous life, so he knew that Mount Ten-Spider was also located in the eastern region.
Therefore, he just needed to continue heading east.
However, it was impossible to reach the future technology region so quickly.
In the later stages of the World Battlefield, the East District encompassed all the areas along the eastern boundary of the World Battlefield.
The emphasis was on the word "boundary," so he would need to traverse quite a few regions.
But Bai Ye was not in a hurry. He had time now, and he knew very well that he had passed the "searching" stage.
That is to say, Bai Ye no longer needed to specially search for anything to improve his strength in a short period.
The Rumble-Rumble Fruit, the Steel Slime, and the Five Spirits Incantations were all very valuable. Therefore, Bai Ye only needed to steadily improve these three aspects, and his strength would naturally increase.
Of course, he still needed to go to forbidden zones, pick up good items when he found them, and strive to collect fragments of the God Stone.
However, Bai Ye believed that his current strength was gradually forming a system, and before completing the existing system, he didn't need to deliberately search for new ones.
But if any came his way, Bai Ye wouldn't refuse.
...
Five days after leaving the ancient town, Bai Ye finally saw the massive regional boundary.
After passing through it, a city of tall buildings appeared before Bai Ye.
"A modern world region?"
Bai Ye looked around. From the buildings, he could tell it was a region of modern civilization.
But it was difficult to say exactly what kind of region it was.
Modern civilization encompassed many regions, such as ability regions and supernatural regions, all of which could have modern environments.
Even some future technology regions, although they used energy weapons, were not advanced in other aspects, and their living environments could still resemble modern civilization.
"No matter what..." Bai Ye looked up at the night sky and said, "I'll find a place to stay first."
Bai Ye thought to himself as he walked along the crosswalk ahead.
It was already very late at night.
Occasionally, he could still see some vehicles on the street, but there were no people on the crosswalks.
Bai Ye walked for a while, then stopped at an ATM.
The woman's stomach was ripped open, her internal organs mixed with blood, strewn all over the ground.
At that very moment...
The man suddenly turned his head to look at Bai Ye.
Under the dim starlight of the night, the man's face was incredibly ferocious, as half of it was covered in blood.
Even, in the man's mouth, a palm-sized piece of flesh was hanging, and he was continuously chewing it!
Bai Ye's expression immediately changed, and he felt a wave of nausea.
Cannibalism!
That man was eating people!
"Food..." The moment the man saw Bai Ye, his eyes lit up, as if he had suddenly become excited. He looked at Bai Ye and mumbled, "Food, I'm hungry!"
Suddenly, amidst his mumbling, the man charged at Bai Ye, opening his bloody maw.
Bai Ye frowned. Was this place a supernatural region?
Or something like a post-apocalyptic zone?
Was the other party something like a zombie?
But zombies shouldn't be able to speak, right?
Bai Ye thought to himself as he watched the man in the suit rush towards him. He suddenly raised his leg and kicked the man in the chest.
Bang!
Bai Ye didn't use too much force; he just wanted to kick the man away.
As a result, the kick to the man's chest sent him flying, smashing him hard against the wall behind him. Due to the pain, his expression contorted grotesquely.
Bai Ye tilted his head...
This guy is so weak!
