Sikong Yan snorted coldly, then his gaze swept across everyone's faces.
He explained slowly, "The reason we're cooperating is because we need more resources. Like you, I don't trust each other. Combining three different people can serve as a form of mutual supervision. If people from the same guild went together, it would be impossible to know who would get more resources and who would get fewer. You probably don't want to receive fewer resources either, right?"
These words immediately made everyone's expressions turn somewhat unpleasant.
Especially the major guilds!
The Emperor's Kingdom snorted with a sour expression. Although he didn't say anything, he was struck by those words.
Sikong said: "If no one trusts the other, it's best to act separately. We should monitor each other and help each other. As for what we might encounter, whoever gets the last hit should wait until they're out before reporting back. We must not have any thoughts of killing our teammates. I have a scroll; once you sign it, you can't attack your own teammates!"
Upon hearing this, everyone's expression changed.
Sikong Yan looked directly at Number 1 and asked for his opinion.
Number 1 smiled slightly: "Sikong's methods are remarkable. He even has these things. It's truly astonishing."
Sikong Yan remained silent.
This smiling tiger is as sarcastic and unsettling as ever.
He coughed lightly, took a scroll from his backpack, and handed it to Zhou Baichong beside him.
"If you don't trust me, then check it yourself."
Zhou Baichong stepped over the scroll, used his innate skill, and then nodded.
Number 1 immediately turned to ask the people standing behind him, and they also said it was pointless.
Yan Zi didn't have any particular thoughts. Since everyone was talking about finishing off the enemy, she was the one who would get her hands on it first. So what if she got a talent?
"I have no objection, I agree!"
Seeing this, Number 1 breathed a sigh of relief. Then, the group broke up and formed teams of three.
Yan Zi joined another small group.
Her teammates were a boy and a girl.
The girl was one of Sikong Yan's subordinates, and the other boy was from the Kingdom of Heaven; he was said to be a heavy swordsman.
"Hello, Miss Yan Zi, my name is Su Chang Le. It's a pleasure to meet you. I am a mage, specializing in ranged attacks and fire magic orbs."
As soon as the girl finished her introduction, another boy hurriedly spoke up: "Hello, Yan Zi, I am from the Heavenly Kingdom. My name is Xu Dapang, you can call me Fatty. I am a heavy swordsman, and this sword I carry weighs five hundred jin!"
Yan Zi nodded, "My name is Yan Zi, and it's a pleasure to meet you all."
Su Changle looked at her with bright eyes, "Sister Yanzi, which place do you want to choose? We'll do whatever you say."
Xu Dapang nodded repeatedly.
Yan Zi was stunned for a moment.
She asked, "Didn't your boss tell you which one to choose?"
Perhaps her question was somewhat perplexing, which left both of them momentarily stunned.
The two looked at each other, then said in unison, "Our boss said that the message to Hive is the best."
Upon hearing this, Yan Zi frowned.
A message to the beehive?
It really does feel a bit unfamiliar.
She then asked, "What is a message from the beehive?"
Su Changle pointed to the area in the very center, and Yan Zi looked over and saw a huge honeycomb drawn on it.
The giant honeycomb is surrounded by countless smaller honeycombs, which look quite dense.
She asked incredulously, "Is there anywhere else besides this beehive?"
Both of them shook their heads, their eyes filled with a hint of doubt.
Yan Zi couldn't help but rub her forehead.
Su Changle and Xu Dapang both sensed something was wrong. They were about to ask their boss for his opinion when they found out that the boss had already made his selections in batches.
The two were instantly dumbfounded, while Yan Zi was speechless.
She looked at Sikong Yan and the Emperor's Kingdom with hostility.
Their leader gave them a bright smile and then slowly walked into the area he had chosen.
Number 1 walked over hesitantly, and as soon as she started talking to Yan Zi, she waved her hand and refused.
"Don't worry, we'll be back safely."
After Yan Zi finished speaking, she walked ahead on her own. The two people in her team exchanged a glance and then followed her closely, looking quite comical, like two great protectors.
Number 1 quickly called his teammates to enter another passage as well.
As soon as they entered the passage, Yan Zi felt a powerful attraction that pulled all three of them into a vortex. When they opened their eyes again, they found themselves on a blade of grass.
She immediately took out a weapon and threw it hard at the leaves.
The leaves instantly began to crack, breaking apart piece by piece along the veins of the roots, and finally falling to become a seed!
Congratulations! You have obtained 1 Hermit Leaf Seed.
Yan Zi had already taken out the seed and was now checking its information.
【Item: Hermit Leaf Seeds (Green)】
[Introduction: One of the special seeds of the hermit leaf. Once cultivated, it will result in a hermit plant with unique characteristics. The drop rate of hermit leaf seeds is only 1 in 10,000! Obtaining one will result in repercussions from the beekeeper.]
Yan Zi was speechless after reading it.
She immediately put it in her backpack and used her talent without saying a word. With the talent activated, the dice spun and the number stopped at 7.
Yan Zi happily collected all the seeds.
Then she turned to look at the two people behind her.
The two seemed to wake up a little late.
Somewhat puzzled, she went over to check on the two and found that they were simply affected by the parasitic leaves and were somewhat dazed.
"How are you two? Are you feeling unwell?"
Su Changle shook her head. "My mental energy seems a bit low. I feel a little dizzy right now."
Yan Zi subconsciously glanced at the weeds clinging to her clothes. "Try brushing off those leaves."
Su Changle immediately realized that she was covered in so many stains, so she took off her clothes and changed into clean ones.
The next moment, her condition improved considerably.
"Hey, I'm all set?"
Yan Zi now understood that the leaves had the ability to affect people's mental state, but the main reason was that their mental points were low.
Only Xu Dapang is left!
His condition worsened, and Yan Zi, feeling a bit of a headache, went over and kicked him. Finding that he was still unconscious, she used a healing skill and gave him a healing potion. He slowly woke up, but was very listless.
"Take off your clothes!"
Yan Zi's cold, aloof voice rushed into his ears, instantly putting him to alertness!
His face showed a hint of confusion and hesitation.
Yan Zi frowned.
He quickly took off his clothes and then stood shivering in the wind...
"I...I'm all dressed up..."
Yan Zi: "..."
Su Chang Le: "..."
