Chapter 23 Mount Bagong

Thump!

The road rider fell from the roof of the vehicle, riddled with bullet holes all over his body. His eyes were wide open, and he died without understanding what had happened.

"You have completed Vic's dying revenge mission, recovered the looted supplies, and received the reward: White Reaper."

A white light appeared before Bai Ye, followed by a silver-white long case that dropped into his hands.

Bai Ye was slightly stunned. Another gun case?

Bai Ye felt like he had been cursed with firearms lately. The gacha machine kept spitting out weapons, and now a simple mission reward was also a firearm.

However, this did not mean Bai Ye was dissatisfied.

Firearms were good things, especially in the early stages of the World Battlefield's opening. There were almost no weapons better than firearms.

This was because, in the early stages of the World Battlefield, most people's personal strength was not yet formidable. They relied more on weapons. This was also why Bai Ye had planned to strengthen his own physique from the very beginning. His past life experiences had made Bai Ye very clear about what was needed to survive in the World Battlefield.

As transitional weapons in the early stages, firearms were the most suitable and cost-effective.

As Bai Ye thought, he opened the gun case. Immediately, his eyes became sharp.

The firearm it contained was a...

Proud sniper rifle—Finnish Star!

Death Strike (Finnish Star TRG-42) (Blue): Known as the world's most precise sniper rifle. Gun length: 1200mm, Barrel length: 690mm, Magazine capacity: 10 rounds, Caliber: 338 Lapua.

Therefore, infinite ammunition was valuable for any type of firearm.

As for Fatal Camouflage, that was also easy to understand. It meant the accompanying ghillie suit, and this effect perfectly matched sniper rifles.

Bai Ye put away the gun and walked to the vehicle containing the supplies. He threw the items from his motorcycle into it, then drove away.

What excited Bai Ye was that the road riders had brought him an unexpected surprise.

There was an electronic map in the car.

According to the electronic map, continuing forward along Highway 404 would lead to a highway station. There, there were three roads: one led to Wasteland City, another to the Rocky Canyon, and the third led to a place called Lake Lijia.

Lake Lijia was the base camp of the road riders, while Bai Ye's target was the Rocky Canyon, from which he could enter the Wonderland area.

The World Battlefield was very mysterious, composed of countless different regions. One moment it could be ruins, and the next it could be picturesque.

This was something the natives did not know. They could not move across regions. Only those chosen to enter the World Battlefield could traverse between different areas.

With the map, everything naturally became simpler. Bai Ye drove along the highway. After about a day, he passed the highway station, and then a vast expanse of rocky mountains appeared before him. The gaps between these rocky mountains formed winding rocky canyons.

As Bai Ye drove to the front of the grand canyon, he could see a green light barrier. Behind the barrier was a scene of lightning and thunder, void and chaos, as if he had arrived at the end of the world.

This was the region boundary.

Crossing it meant entering another area.

Bai Ye stopped the car, then slung his backpack over his shoulders. He selected some easily portable food and water to bring, then started walking forward.

The road ahead was not suitable for driving.

Because...

When Bai Ye crossed the region boundary, he found himself in a forest. Towering, verdant trees surrounded him. Such terrain was naturally unsuitable for driving.

And this place was Bai Ye's destination, the Wonderland area—Mount Bagong!

There were many good things to be found in the Wonderland area. Some spiritual herbs had the effect of reviving the dead, and flying swords were also very popular. Who didn't have a dream of flying on a sword?

However, Bai Ye had not come to Mount Bagong to pursue a cultivation dream, but to...

Dig up graves!

Moreover, the graves Bai Ye intended to dig were not ordinary graves, but ancestral graves.

This was because Mount Bagong housed the tomb of the King of Huainan.

During his lifetime, the King of Huainan was fond of arcane arts, and he had thousands of guests who were practitioners of these arts. The renowned "Huainanzi" was compiled by the King of Huainan with the help of his retainers. In folk tales, the King of Huainan died from mistakenly consuming elixirs. After his death, his soul was sealed in a crimson jade pot, which then transformed into a malevolent spirit, forever trapped within the King of Huainan's tomb.

However, none of this was important. What mattered was that the King of Huainan enjoyed seeking immortality and was also a wealthy prince. Therefore, the King of Huainan's tomb was filled with treasures of this nature.

The Five Spirits Disk, which Bai Ye was looking for, was one of the King of Huainan's finest possessions and was buried with him as a funerary object.

Therefore, if Bai Ye wanted the Five Spirits Disk, he naturally had to dig up the King of Huainan's grave.
