The remaining people were almost scared out of their wits. Even though their limbs were unstable and in unbearable pain, they still struggled to crawl and climb with their elbows to get out of the incandescent place.
However, Bai Chi didn't give them any chance at all. He kicked the Baron who was trying to crawl away and knocked him over. The bottle of medicine in his hand was right above his head and he could fall down at any time.
The guard next to him who was crawling with bugs was still screaming and struggling, trying to get rid of the bugs on his body, but unfortunately there were too many of them, and they were still crawling towards him from a distance, so it was useless.
"Let me go, give me money, lots of money, please let me go."
The baron was panicked and terrified, his eyes fixed on the medicine bottle in Bai Chi's hand, and he was even scared to the point of incontinence.
"If you don't want to be like him, then tell us the truth about the game."
Bai Chi squatted down and tilted the medicine bottle in his hand slightly, allowing the baron to even see the powder inside. Even if a gust of wind came at this time, the powder would be scattered on him.
The baron screamed in fear and stepped back repeatedly, completely losing his aristocratic demeanor.
"I said, take it away, take it away!"
Bai Chi didn't want to scare people, so he moved some of it away.
Luo Yunxiao walked over and threw out the dagger in his hand. With a clang, he blocked the baron's backward movement.
The baron was so frightened that he screamed again and shook like a sieve.
"explain!"
Luo Yunxiao was more concise than Bai Chi, and even his voice was colder.
Neither of them was easy to deal with, so the Baron didn't dare to delay and immediately told them everything he knew.
Just as Xiao Hei had investigated, the prey were all found by Earl Ryan under the pretext of recruiting guards. They were trained for a month to make the fight between the prey and the hunters more intense.
At the same time, it is also to select people who are more suitable to be prey. Those who are too weak or too strong are not included.
Corresponding to the prey were the same number of minor nobles, almost all of whom were barons and viscounts, as well as the impoverished earl.
The left ear is the trophy, which can be exchanged for corresponding resources from Earl Ryan, or more precisely, from the Grand Duke behind Earl Ryan.
For example, the management rights of a town or a city.
But not everyone can become a hunter. They must first find a channel to apply to Earl Ryan, and then use a town as a bet.
"So, every hunter and every prey represents the management rights of a town? Is that what you mean?"
Bai Chi squatted beside the Baron, playing with the bottle of powder in his hand. His light movements made it seem as if the powder might be poured out at any time, which made the Baron's attention always on the bottle, and he didn't care about what he said at all.
"Yes, the more spoils you get, the more management rights you will have over the town, and you can even be promoted to a noble title!"
Luo Yunxiao frowned slightly, with murderous intent in his eyes, but the baron's attention was all on the medicine bottle in Bai Chi's hand.
"You too?"
"What?"
The Baron seemed a little unresponsive.
"I say, you are spoils of war too, right?"
Bai Chi glanced at the side and saw the Viscount's left ear, which he had just cut off, right next to him.
The baron tried hard to raise his left hand. Even though his palm had no strength left due to the tendon being torn, he still tried hard to cover his left ear.
"Yes, yes, we, we ourselves are also prey."
Bai Chi sneered and then asked again.
"How many people are there in total? I mean, how many prey hunters are there in total?"
A calculation flashed in the Baron's eyes. Just as he was about to speak, he heard Luo Yunxiao say coldly, "You'd better think it over before you speak."
At the same time, the medicine bottle in Bai Chi's hand tilted slightly, and the baron screamed and rolled to the side.
However, the powder did not fall on his body. Instead, a gust of wind blew over and blew the powder to his left ear which fell on the ground next to him.
Suddenly, some of the insects separated and surrounded the left ear in an instant. After a few seconds, the insects dispersed and the ear disappeared. Only a little bloodstain on the ground proved the existence of the left ear.
The baron's pupils shrank sharply and he dared not hesitate.
"Two hundred! Excluding the guards each noble brought with them, there are two hundred spoils in total!"
Only then did he realize that the guard who had been struggling and screaming in the swarm of insects had long since lost his voice and breath, and even the insects had slowly scattered because the powder was gone.
Leaving behind was a bloody corpse, which was eaten beyond recognition by insects and had no healthy skin left on its body.
The other four people, like insects, used the strength of their elbows to climb and wriggle away in another direction.
Bai Chi put away the medicine bottle and waved towards Luo Yunxiao: "We've been delayed for too long, let's leave here first."
Before leaving, Luo Yunxiao grabbed the arrow that was still stuck in the baron's shoulder and pulled it out with force.
His skin and flesh were torn apart immediately, accompanied by the Baron's screams, and then the two of them left here quickly without looking back.
Not long after the two of them left, someone else came over following the sound, but this time, it was not a noble, but Parker with a few people.
Xiao Hei conveyed the information to Bai Chi. Apparently, the team of twenty people had been divided into several small teams, among which the people following Parker were the largest, and they were also the relatively weaker ones in the team.
Looking at the distribution of the other teams of twenty people, they were also scattered in twos and threes. Most of them chose to act in small teams, but there were also some people acting alone.
It seems that those who are confident in their own abilities have chosen to act alone.
Not knowing that there were other people around, everyone thought they were the only twenty prey, and obviously everyone thought they could be the only winner.
