"What's there to think about? There are four of us on guard anyway. No matter what happens, it's fine as long as the four of us stick together and don't separate!" Jun Zichen raised his eyebrows and looked at An Ran who was deep in thought, and said lightly.

"I wonder if Prince Jun has any good ideas?" Xu Errong raised his eyebrows and looked at Jun Zichen, asking lightly.

"I don't have any good ideas, but I have thought of a way. There are only four of us on guard at night. The place where we are now is almost close to the inner circle of the Apocalypse Mountains. It is completely normal for monsters to appear here, right?" Jun Zichen habitually opened the folding fan in his hand and said to Xu Errong.

What does this mean? Could it be...

An Yu frowned slightly, and he looked at Jun Zichen and said, "Do you mean that one of us should go find a mid-level magical beast?

No, this is a bit dangerous. We don’t know where the mid-level monsters are, where the high-level monsters are, which places are where the monsters act alone, and which places are where the monsters live in groups!

Besides, the monsters are most active at night, and our blurred vision is really not conducive to us!"

"Who said that one of us should go and lure a mid-level magical beast? Don't we have contracted magical beasts? Can't we just let them out to play?" Jun Zichen looked at An Yu and said lightly.

It seems that what he said makes some sense. An Ran, An Yu and Xu Errong carefully thought about the feasibility of this method.

"Well... this is a very good idea. As long as we pretend to be more realistic, there shouldn't be any problem!" An Ran thought about it and said with some agreement.

Xu Errong frowned in thought. Hearing An Ran's words, he raised his head and said calmly, "This won't work. No matter how much your contracted monster pretends to be, it's still different from a real monster. It doesn't have the arrogance, domineering, and bloodthirstiness of those monsters."

An Yu also disagreed and said, "That's indeed the case. The magical beasts we have are relatively gentle, and they don't appear very often in the Apocalypse Mountains. Besides, Su Fanjun has his own magical beast. I don't know if others will notice it, but he's very smart, so I'm still a little worried that he might notice it."

This method was also rejected by them. An Ran became a little impatient. It was estimated that if they walked for another day and a half, they would basically reach the place where the academy asked them to go. They had not yet separated from the team!

"No matter what we do, it won't work. In my opinion, we should just run away and say we are chasing the monsters. What else can they do to us?" An Ran said impatiently.

Jun Zichen looked at An Ran, reached out and touched her head, and comforted her softly: "Don't worry, think about it slowly, we always have a way. If it really doesn't work, we can use some snake-attracting powder tomorrow to attract a large number of snake monsters. We can do the same as Senior Xu Errong and the others and create some conflicts in the whole group, so that everyone will take the initiative to propose to separate!"

...As soon as these words were spoken, everyone looked at Jun Zichen in astonishment. Is this really okay?

Jun Zichen raised his eyebrows and looked back, then asked calmly, "Do you have any better ideas?"

"……No."

An Ran, An Yu, and Xu Errong spoke in unison, and couldn't help but complain about Jun Zichen in their hearts. He was indeed the most talented young master in the vast continent!

He was so spontaneous, doing whatever he wanted. He even dared to use snake attractant powder on a group of snakes that no one would dare to provoke...

The three of them shuddered suddenly, and silently distanced themselves from Jun Zichen...

For a moment, silence fell again...

After a while, An Ran seemed to suddenly remember something. She looked at Jun Zichen, Xu Errong, and An Yu and said, "Where are those people? How are they?"

Jun Zichen looked at An Ran with a grin, and said with some pride: "Don't worry, they promised me that they will help us delay the progress of each group as much as possible.

Besides, Mei An is watching over them, so you can rest assured."

Xu Errong and An Yu also nodded, looking at An Ran and said, "Don't worry, we have people watching over us, nothing will happen!"

The four of them began to discuss the matter of the Hundred Flower Snake again, and how to escape the team safely from the attack of the Hundred Flower Snake tomorrow...

Time passed quickly, and gradually the moon climbed above the treetops, and the moonlight became brighter.

It was almost midnight, and a cool breeze was blowing in the mountains. The leaves were rustling in the breeze, and the mottled moonlight that filtered through the leaves seemed to be dancing on the ground, becoming even more mottled.

Gradually, the mountain wind began to blow harder, making a howling sound, like an old man crying, or as if someone was telling you about the past in a plaintive voice in your ear.

The leaves began to flutter down in bits and pieces, one after another, reluctant to fall from the branches.

Under the moonlight, the mottled shadows of the trees kept changing their shapes, adding a hint of danger and weirdness to this gloomy and desolate night.

"Do you feel something is wrong?" An Yu looked up, glanced at the big trees around him, and asked with a frown.

Jun Zichen looked at An Yu and said calmly, "Nothing, it's just that we don't need to use snake attracting powder tomorrow. Some little creatures are visiting us."

little things?

Anran looked at Jun Zichen in confusion, silently asking what had happened?

Jun Zichen smiled faintly and said nothing. He put away the folding fan in his hand and made a quiet gesture to An Ran.

What's going on here? An Ran looked at Jun Zichen with some frustration. She could only quietly absorb the strange atmosphere in the air.

An Yu and Xu Errong also pricked up their ears, quietly listening to some small noises coming from the outside world.

Almost at the same time, a solemn expression appeared on the faces of the three of them. They looked at each other and saw the words "ill-intentioned" in each other's eyes!

Xu Errong glanced at Jun Zichen with some confusion. They had just sensed the attack of the monsters, but judging from the reaction of this Prince Jun, he should have known about it a long time ago!

Such extensive *******! Such keen insight!

So, his strength wasn't as the outside world said, that he had regressed due to illness in recent years. Instead, his magic training hadn't fallen behind in the past few years! He wasn't even weaker than himself, and was even much better than himself!
