This time out, Zhu Yan was very excited.
After all.
Since the other world officially began its offensive against the Water Blue Star.
He had been staying in the base, rarely going out.
Although he was well aware of the changes in the outside world.
He hadn't been able to enjoy the beautiful mountains and rivers of his homeland for a long time.
He was almost depressed.
Although the destination this time was not within Huaxia.
But they still had to pass through many places along the way.
Although their speed of flight was extremely fast, they feasted their eyes along the way.
Their moods improved a lot.
Tang Xiaowan even hummed a song.
"Love you walking alone in the dark alley..."
Zhu Yan muttered in a low voice, "Are you an elementary school student, or someone who hasn't been online recently..."
Before he could finish speaking, Tang Xiaowan's slender hand suddenly attacked.
"Ah, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts!"
Zhu Yan let out a pig-slaughtering wail.
Luo Luo pursed her lips and chuckled.
The three of them bickered and played all the way, and soon arrived at their destination.
The Demon Shadow Cave.
As the strategic material known as Demon Shadows was discovered and utilized.
The once desolate and deserted area had now become extremely lively.
Countless players were entering and exiting.
Those who entered were filled with trepidation and anticipation.
Those who came out were beaming and excited.
Their arrival did not cause any impact on the ceaseless stream of people.
After registering at the entrance.
They entered the cave directly without any further obstruction.
Tang Xiaowan had initially expected to discover some amazing things here, filled with great anticipation.
As a result.
Upon reaching the Demon Shadow Cave, she realized.
It was just a desolate area of considerable size.
There were only Demon Shadows that continuously respawned.
And crowds of people busily killing them or absorbing them on the spot.
It was extremely monotonous and boring.
There was nothing more than the fact that the strength of the Demon Shadows varied.
If they couldn't sense it themselves, they needed to apply for the help of the Demon Shadow Squad's combat power monitor to determine it.
Of course.
This required a certain fee.
However, compared to the immense benefits of absorbing Demon Shadows to enhance one's strength, this fee was nothing.
The group themselves were powerful.
They had also brought a sub-unit of the combat power monitor with them when they left.
Naturally, they did not need to borrow others'.
Since there was nothing exciting to see, even the usually lively Zhu Yan calmed himself down and began to work honestly.
That was to capture live Demon Shadows.
In order to ensure the accuracy of the experiment and to understand this creature to a greater extent.
After discussion, they decided to capture at least one of each strength, from low to high.
Originally.
They all felt that this was not a big deal.
It should not affect others.
Such a vast area, so many Demon Shadows.
We are at least three people.
Capturing one or two Demon Shadows in an area should not be a problem for you, right?
In the beginning, it was indeed like this.
From Demon Shadows with a combat power of a few points, equivalent to that of an ordinary person.
To hundreds of points, and tens of thousands of points.
The three of them moved forward continuously, capturing live Demon Shadows.
They originally thought.
According to the combat power monitor's prompt.
It would be enough to capture about ten different strengths.
One after another, it would only take a few minutes.
But when they actually started operating, problems arose.
The Demon Shadows were so weak that the three of them had to be extremely careful.
Fearing that they might accidentally kill them.
Not only would absorbing them bring little help to their strength.
It would also delay their time.
Thus.
The three of them, not too fast and not too slow.
Wandered through various areas, capturing suitable Demon Shadows.
As they went deeper and deeper.
The strength of the Demon Shadows they encountered also increased.
And the players in those areas naturally became fewer and fewer.
After all, the strong were always a minority.
However, the Demon Shadows in these areas were originally fewer than those in the weaker areas.
Coupled with the large number of people entering, these areas still had relatively scarce Demon Shadows.
Many people were eyeing them covetously, killing or waiting for Demon Shadows to appear in various small areas.
Zhu Yan and the other two also searched for a long time.
Only then did they find a Demon Shadow hidden in a corner.
The three of them instantly rushed over, just as they were about to make a move.
"Friend, we've been waiting here for a while, isn't it inappropriate to make a move directly?"
A cold voice came.
The figures of five men appeared opposite the three of them.
Each of them had an unhappy expression on their faces.
The burly man who spoke clenched his fists slightly.
These Chinese people are actually ignoring us?
Just as a conflict was about to break out between the two sides.
A short man among the five suddenly changed his expression.
He pulled the man who spoke at the front and whispered in his ear.
"Brother, don't be impulsive!"
"These are people from the God of War Squad!"
The burly leader looked back in panic, his eyes filled with shock.
"Are you sure you're not mistaken?"
"How could such important figures come to our area?"
The short man's face turned pale, and he quickly said.
"I don't know why they came here."
"But I've watched many videos of the God of War Squad's battles before, and I saw them very clearly!"
"The slightly fatter one should be the Master Gatherer, and of the two women, the shorter one is Luo Luo."
"The other girl, I haven't seen much of, she might be the team member who can turn invisible."
"Damn it!"
The burly man swore.
What bad luck!
To encounter these people while absorbing a Demon Shadow?
Although the Demon Shadow Squad was currently dominating the scene and was known as the strongest squad on Water Blue Star.
No one would ignore the past power of the God of War Squad.
Moreover.
Even if the God of War Squad was not as strong as the Demon Shadow Squad, they were not someone that a mid-tier squad with a combat power of only a hundred million could trifle with.
He was somewhat unwilling.
But there was nothing he could do.
"Forget it, it's yours."
The five of them took a step back in unison.
This action made the three members of the group feel a bit embarrassed.
It was as if they had become bullies?
Zhu Yan almost said, "Why don't you go first."
It was only when Tang Xiaowan pinched him that he snapped back to reality.
Since others had backed down, he should just accept it.
There was no need to be a saint.
After all, they still had to capture Demon Shadows of other combat strengths.
They didn't have much time to waste here.
Since the other party was sensible, they would just wait for the next wave.
Just as he was about to step forward to capture it.
"Wait!"
Suddenly, another voice spoke.
Zhu Yan's hand paused, and his brows furrowed slightly.
What's going on?
Another one who doesn't know his limits?
He turned his head.
He saw three people walking over from the other side.
It was also a combination of one man and two women.
However, the man was short and his appearance was rather unappealing.
Judging by his facial features, he seemed to be from Sakura Country.
The two women behind him, however, were tall and slender, with extremely voluptuous figures, and their blonde hair added a touch of sexiness.
"Lord Jingkou!"
The five people who had just backed down looked terrified and bowed in unison.
Jingkou Jun nodded with satisfaction.
Since his elder brother's Demon Shadow Squad had soared to fame, his status had also risen rapidly.
As the captain of one of the fifty surveillance squads designated by the Demon Shadow Squad, he was considered a significant figure.
Not only in this Demon Shadow Cave, but wherever he went, people would respectfully greet him.
Sometimes he would also receive gifts.
And many women threw themselves at him.
The two women beside him were once famous stars from the Beautiful Country, who had starred in several blockbuster movies.
They were once like celestial beings, with countless fans wherever they went, and were looked up to by everyone.
They were once among his dream lovers.
He thought that he would be lucky to see them once in his lifetime, get an autograph and a photo.
Who would have thought.
The appearance of the Eternal World and the invasion of the other world had changed the world.
And his brother's power had made him a figure not to be underestimated in the new era.
And the goddesses he could only watch on television had taken the initiative to throw themselves at him.
Being able to have these two top beauties greatly satisfied his vanity.
And he felt a sense of conquest.
Praise this era!
He shivered.
He came back to his senses.
He was patrolling aimlessly when he saw the confrontation between the two sides from afar.
He didn't intend to interfere in such trivial matters.
This kind of scene where two parties fought over a Demon Shadow happened every day.
Unless both sides had many people and he felt there was profit to be made, he would go and mediate.
It was just that there seemed to be two graceful figures that made him restless, so he couldn't help but walk over.
However, what he didn't expect was.
When he walked over, he found.
The group of five, who appeared to be stronger, had surprisingly chosen to retreat in the face of a combination of a small chubby man and two girls.
He used to be a nobody, and only recently gained some power.
Although he had heard of the God of War Squad, he had never seen them before.
So he was curious.
Were these three people some famous figures?
So when he came, he first called out to stop.
He thought that if they were strong, he would make friends with them.
If not.
Then such people who forcibly stole others' opportunities would have to pay a price.
For example, a congenital spiritual treasure.
Or.
Let these two delicate Chinese beauties accompany him for some fun?
He couldn't help but chuckle lewdly.
Seeing the five people's expressions change, he put away his lewd smile and said sternly.
"What is going on?"
"If you five have any grievances, you can report them to me. I... the surveillance squad will definitely uphold justice for you!"
He changed his mind halfway, realizing it was inappropriate.
He was alone and outnumbered outside.
It was more effective to mention the surveillance squad's name in time.
Zhu Yan and the other two had naturally never heard of a surveillance squad.
Seeing the guy's lecherous look, the two women were disgusted.
Zhu Yan said coldly, "We discovered this Demon Shadow first, and they agreed to give it to us. Is there any problem?"
Jingkou Jun was stunned.
Dare to speak to me like that?
Who is this person, so arrogant?
"What's wrong with you five? If you were forced, speak up boldly. Our Sakura Country is an ally with the Beautiful Country, and we will definitely not let you suffer!"
He saw that Zhu Yan and the other two all looked like Chinese people.
And these five people were from the Beautiful Country, and the one in front had even given him a gift.
He was determined to favor the latter.
He was filled with hatred.
"Damn Chinese people, if it weren't for you, why would our Sakura Country be suppressed for so long!"
"This damn chubby guy, he looks foolish, but he actually has two such beautiful Chinese girls!"
He had already made his calculations.
As long as these five people were sensible.
He would forcibly exercise his surveillance power and teach these three Chinese people a good lesson.
Of course.
He would directly take away the chubby guy and extort some benefits.
As for the two delicate beauties, then...
Heh heh!
The corners of his mouth rose again.
However, that smile was too lewd.
Even the two blonde women behind him secretly curled their lips.
With some disdain.
But Jingkou Jun never expected.
He had hinted so clearly.
He just needed to ask the five people to directly frame these three Chinese people for a fabricated crime.
The burly man at the head kept waving his hands.
"My Lord, you've misunderstood!"
"There is no conflict between us. These three arrived first, and we five admire the demeanor of Chinese experts and wish to observe and learn from their techniques."
His words made Jingkou Jun's expression stiffen.
Baka!
Are you an idiot?
I've said it so clearly.
Are you this afraid of these three Chinese people?
Has all the muscle on your body been trained into a dog's body?
Just as he was about to speak, the burly man, sensing that the situation was not right, quickly stepped forward and whispered.
"My Lord, please calm your anger. These three are all from the God of War Squad."
God of War Squad?
Jingkou Jun's anger instantly subsided.
There was even a trace of lingering fear.
This scrawny chubby guy and two girls who looked no older than teenagers.
Were actually members of the God of War Squad, the second-ranked top organization on Water Blue Star, second only to his elder brother's Demon Shadow Squad?
If his elder brother's entire team were here, they could still confront them.
With his current strength and status, facing three members of the God of War Squad at once.
It was really a bit too much to offend them for such a trivial matter.
He waved his hand unwillingly.
"Alright, since there's no conflict, then forget it."
He looked at Zhu Yan resentfully and forced a smile.
"Since you arrived first, you can kill and absorb it."
"However, there are few Demon Shadows in this area."
"Don't rely on your numbers and not give others a chance."
Zhu Yan looked strange.
We're relying on our numbers?
Brother, there are only three of us.
The other party was five burly men!
With their current strength, they could naturally hear the whispered conversations of the other party clearly.
They naturally understood that someone recognized them and feared the reputation of the God of War Squad.
He shook his head with amusement.
You really know how to switch sides.
Although he disdained the other party's quick change of attitude.
But since they had already surrendered, he was too lazy to pursue it further.
His elder brother's mission was important.
He quickly opened his Qiankun Bag.
He put in a Demon Shadow with a combat power of over 100 million, which was trembling under his pressure, and put it in.
He was about to leave here quickly with the two girls.
Lest his sister be leered at by that ugly man again.
But at this moment.
An urgent voice came from Jingkou Jun's communicator.
"My Lord, there's a situation!"
Jingkou Jun looked at Zhu Yan and the other two figures unwillingly, about to leave.
But the next sentence from the communicator made him freeze.
"Several surveillance points have sent urgent messages. There are problems with the fixed Demon Shadow spawn points in several locations, and no new Demon Shadows are spawning."
"According to the analysis of the gathered information, it seems that a team of three, a man and two women, is using special means to capture Demon Shadows, causing the natural spawning to be interrupted."
"This team of three is a combination of one man and two women. The man is relatively plump and not tall, and the two women are not old and are very beautiful, and they all seem to be Chinese..."
The voice from the communicator continued.
But Jingkou Jun no longer wanted to listen.
An extremely smug smile appeared on his face.
A team of three, Chinese, one man and two women.
And the women are very beautiful?
Isn't this the three people in front of him?
Moreover.
Just now, right under his nose, this chubby guy captured a Demon Shadow.
He had been wondering why the other party didn't kill and absorb it on the spot.
He thought it was out of fear of him.
Unexpectedly.
It was for such a purpose.
This time, it's interesting!
He smiled sinisterly and picked up the communicator.
"Received."
"These three have been discovered by me, coordinates 325, 678."
"Send people over quickly!"
...
Thanks to Zheng Hao, who loves eating vegetables and has a blue lotus, for the催更符 and likes.
Although it is nearing the end, some book friends have asked for a quick conclusion. In fact, a quick conclusion is very simple, it can be summarized in a few paragraphs in the outline, and once it is finished, there will be recommendations, and the performance and income may be much better than they are now.
But the author is unwilling to end it in such a perfunctory manner, which is not good for everyone or for himself.
This is the first time the author has written an online game. It's rare to reach a million words. Although there are many omissions and errors in many parts, and some plots are very bad, they have come all the way and written to this point. They are deeply honored to have received many suggestions, opinions, encouragement, and support from book friends.
The regrets of the past are difficult to make up for. For the final ending, I want to write it as well as possible. I may be thinking a lot and revising it repeatedly, so the updates may be slower than before. I intend to present the plot I designed as best as possible to the friends who are still following the book, hoping to make everyone feel comfortable.
I worked continuously for more than half a month before, and the time I could spare for writing was too little. I finally got a holiday and seized the time to write a large chapter. I hope friends who are still following the book can give me some support. I don't ask for rewards, and leaving a message is also a great encouragement to the author.
Thanks to all the friends who have been with me all the way. The little author will definitely bring you a complete and wonderful ending!
