Guan Shanyue calmed down at this moment, her eyes flickering: "You mean, they came to find something in the Misty Forest."
“That’s right.” Li Baolu tapped his fingers on the table and pondered, “The situation in the Misty Forest is really special. Even with our technological capabilities, we still can’t explore its entirety. There are quite a few rare treasures hidden inside.”
"The hunters haven't shown up for so long, wouldn't their reappearance be a huge, dramatic event? How could they just kill one person and be done with it? Besides, the markings are so subtle, it doesn't seem like a declaration of murder, but rather..."
Guan Shanyue frowned and asked, "A mark?"
Paul Lee nodded: "So the clue lies with the Softheart Vine."
"Let's go take a look!"
In front of the stone platform in the secret room.
Cheng Huaijin was surprised to find that her check-in progress had jumped to 56.3%.
I wonder how many others have reached? I shouldn't be far behind others, right?
Cheng Huaijin took this opportunity to examine the pile of corpses in front of the door. He found cross-shaped marks on different parts of each corpse.
Those who died were all hunters.
With so many people here, they must be looking for something. Judging from their appearance before they died, Cheng Huaijin suspected they had experienced some kind of hallucination.
Alternatively, they might have been affected by a skill similar to that of a magical beast, such as being in a different space from Cheng Huaijin's. Something in their space might be hunting them down, while Cheng Huaijin's space is safe.
This also explains why they couldn't see Cheng Huaijin.
Well, I guess I'm pretty lucky.
Cheng Huaijin searched the entire secret room from all angles, but still couldn't find an exit. Did he have to wait for the dragon egg to decide to leave?
Cheng Huaijin focused his consciousness on the mark on his wrist to check the information about the dragon egg.
Pet: Dragon Egg (Attributes Unknown)
Status: Egg stage
Age: 0 years old
Level: 29/30
Skills: Energy Absorption, Energy Conversion
Level 29 already!!!
Just as Cheng Huaijin finished getting excited, he heard a "plop" as the dragon egg rolled off the stone platform.
She quickly hugged the dragon egg with both hands, and before she could catch her breath, the middle part of the stone platform suddenly began to glow.
A dragon-shaped totem gradually appeared, covering the entire stone platform.
“Good…” Cheng Huaijin looked at the totem rising into the air with amazement. Before he could say “handsome,” his foot slipped and he fell into a deep pit full of vines while holding the dragon egg.
"Ugh!" The supple vines tightly bound her and the dragon egg, rendering Cheng Huaijin unable to move.
A thin, golden vine climbed to Cheng Huaijin's ear and slowly pierced her temple.
Cheng Huaijin's vision went black, and he lost consciousness.
