When Earth becomes a battlefield and killing becomes the norm, everyone eagerly awaits their desired items from treasure chests dropped by monsters. But he, having opened so many treasure chests, h...
"Set up camp?"
All six zodiac signs were dumbfounded. Setting up camp at this critical juncture would be tantamount to courting death. No one would be foolish enough to set up camp here; wouldn't that make them easy targets?
“I have a concealment talisman! Although I will still encounter some unavoidable small groups of beasts, I will definitely be able to avoid the main force’s beasts!” Mi Tan’er took out a talisman that shimmered with seven-colored light.
Her goal was simple: to find an opportunity to be alone with Jiang Yuan. Setting up camp was obviously the best opportunity. If she had just half a day, she could win him over. Wouldn't that be wonderful?
“That makes sense!” Tianlong considered it carefully and found that Jiang Tan’er’s words were quite reasonable.
"We're surrounded on all sides now, lying in wait is a good idea!" Even the rat-eater, who hadn't spoken until now, nodded in agreement.
"And I can take this opportunity to properly treat my brother's injuries and help him wake up and recover as soon as possible!" Mi Tan'er looked at Jiang Yuan, who was still unconscious, with concern.
Yu Tu pouted, having no reason to refute.
"In that case, let's choose a location first. As long as we get through the period when the strange beasts gather, the crisis will naturally pass!" Mi Tan'er smiled to herself. They were getting closer and closer to their goal.
"Alright, you and Speed Horse go protect Sleeping Sheep. Find a good spot that's both offensive and defensive, and we'll set up camp here!" Tianlong gestured for the two to go and search. Sleeping Sheep's soul energy is very special, and it's extremely good at seeking good fortune and avoiding misfortune.
"Don't worry!" the rat nodded.
"By the way, Long Da, you can keep the battlefield token here!" Su Ma turned back after taking only a few steps and handed the golden token to Tian Long.
The three rat-eaters quickly left, leaving only Tianlong and the others at the scene.
"Don't just stand around, clear out the surrounding beasts and try not to be discovered, otherwise our situation will be very dangerous when facing the horde!" Tianlong said.
Mi Tan'er stood up and said, "You all stay here to protect Jiang Yuan, I'll go deal with the strange beasts!"
"Tch, you think you're so great! I'll go too!" Yu Tu retorted to Mi Tan'er, not to be outdone.
"Really? Then let's have a competition!" Mi Tan'er challenged Yu Tu with great interest.
"Let's compete!" Yu Tu jumped up from next to Jiang Yuan, looking eager to try.
"snort!"
Mi Tan'er turned her head away haughtily and walked in the direction she had already prepared.
"Want to come with me, Rabbit?" the rooster kindly suggested.
"This is a battle between women, don't interfere!" Yu Tu gritted her teeth and walked in one direction.
After watching the two women leave, Tianlong and his companion exchanged a helpless smile.
"Do you think Jiang Tan'er's sudden appearance might be for some other purpose?" Mingji pondered, resting his chin on his hand.
"Don't worry, he definitely has no designs on us! If he does, it's on him!" Tianlong pointed to Jiang Yuan, who was being carried on the little dumpling's back.
"I think the three of them are very strange! Jiang Yuan and Jiang Tan'er don't seem like siblings, and he and Yu Tu don't seem like lovers either. Anyway, they just seem pretty weird!" Mingji was completely puzzled.
Tianlong's gaze suddenly fell on the battlefield token he had just retrieved. Then, recalling Jiang Tan'er's strange behavior, he guessed, "Jiang Tan'er might be after the battlefield token!"
"Of course, it's also possible that they really are here to find their relatives!"
Tianlong couldn't give a definite answer; in fact, Jiang Tan'er gave him the feeling that she was unfathomable.
"I wonder when this kid will wake up!" Mingji looked at Jiang Yuan, who was sleeping peacefully. No matter how bumpy the journey was, this guy didn't move an inch and just wouldn't wake up.
...
"Blood Spirit! Blood Spirit!"
Completely immersed in his living state, four words kept echoing in Jiang Yuan's mind: the invisible rules within the Tomb of the Lord of War were urging him to undergo the test of the tomb guardian.
However, he is now powerless against the Blood Elf's test, because this time it is not only the aftereffects of the Wild Spirit, but also the fact that his physical body was exposed to the Feathered Azure Spirit, causing his blood, bones and flesh to enter a state of decay. The outbreak of these two factors is already a crisis that can be fatal.
Besides the injuries he sustained in the battle with Qiao Ling, his experiences in the Epang Palace were also a significant factor in this crisis. In order to suppress the descendants of the Divine Empress, he extensively transcribed the genes of the Three Sovereigns, and the hidden injury in his heart almost cost him his life. Later, his achievement of being able to carry the fortune in the cauldron was also something he had no choice but to do.
When his energy and physical body were on the verge of collapse, he could only resort to a dormant state of living therapy. Once he awoke, his strength would once again advance by leaps and bounds!
"Miss Tan'er, have you brought your family's hotel here? That's incredible!"
Having already eliminated some of the strange beasts, the Zodiac team stood in front of a building that was half classical and half modern, and almost all six of them exclaimed in amazement.
"Don't underestimate this small hotel. It's built using architectural techniques passed down from the era of the God Emperor. It can be made large or small, and it's portable! Moreover, its main building material is void stone. Even if it weighs hundreds of tons when it's put down, it's no different from a small stone when it's put away!" Mi Tan'er walked around the classical building. The concealment talisman in her hand had disappeared, replaced by a layer of seven-colored light curtain around the building.
"Void Stone?" Sleepy Sheep opened her eyes, utterly astonished. "The storage ring uses Void Stone, could this palace also be a storage ring?"
“If we’re just talking about the material, that’s certainly true. But the Void Stone used in the storage ring is purer and the craftsmanship is more complex. Compared to it, the palace can only be said to have its own advantages and disadvantages!” Mi Tan’er explained patiently, which was rare for her.
"Miss Tan'er truly lives up to her noble birth; her insight and knowledge are exceptional!" Su Ma exclaimed.
Yu Tu fell silent when she heard Su Ma flattering Jiang Tan'er. Just now, she had lost miserably in the competition to kill the alien beast, so she didn't want to seek any sense of presence. She couldn't bear to lose face like that.
"Alright, the concealment formation has been activated. As long as we stay inside, we won't be detected by the beasts outside!" Mi Tan'er brushed the dust off her hands and went to help Jiang Yuan up.
"Waaah!"
The little dumpling bared its teeth and growled, refusing to let her get close at all.
"Little dumpling, come on, big sister will take your boss to sleep!" Yu Tu gently stroked the little dumpling's fur, not targeting Jiang Tan'er, and then walked directly into the palace.
"this……"
Tianlong and the others were quite embarrassed because Jiang Tan'er's original intention in helping them was Jiang Yuan, but now she had been 'kicked away'.
"It's alright, I can take care of him even if I stay in the room next to his!" Mi Tan'er was disgusted with sharing a room with a man from the bottom of her heart, so even if she was allowed to stay, she would have to think about it.
“That’s excellent!” Suma immediately stepped in as a mediator.
"Night is almost falling, you should all get some rest! Remember, don't leave the area of the concealment formation, or we'll reveal our whereabouts!" Mi Tan'er reminded her again.
She wasn't acting out of kindness; she simply didn't want unrelated people to disrupt her plans, that's all!
