Lyanna's attack was still swift and fierce. Almost the instant Jia Zhengyi opened his mouth, he felt several streaks of light flash past in the darkness behind him, covering a range of two thousand meters, and heading straight for the new unlucky one.
The special magical arrows pierced their bodies, triggering the melting effect of the venom. These two people had already been sneaking around cautiously, yet they still died mysteriously.
"Hey, that's a great method, saves us the trouble of burying the body!"
Jia Zhengyi witnessed this scene and couldn't help but praise it in his heart, but he never received a response from Lyanna.
She remained aloof as always, finding it difficult to respond to anyone other than Su Lin.
The next task was much simpler. The pure-blooded elf team was dispatched again to deal with the residue left after the venom melted the corpses, and also to bring the boxes back and collect all the supplies.
This job is easy and won't take too long; it can be done in a few minutes at most.
But in those few minutes, Jia Zhengyi, who was just about to move to another location to scout, suddenly stopped, looked up sharply, and stared intently at the area where the battlefield was being cleaned up.
"More people have arrived?! And so quickly!"
He vaguely sensed someone rapidly approaching, beyond his absolute perception range (1000 meters), and this perception came from another of his supernatural abilities.
"Is this someone I've met before?"
Jia Zhengyi muttered to himself, activating his superpower. Black light burst forth from his eyes as he stared intently in the direction of the anomaly.
The next second.
Jia Zhengyi was taken aback: "Hey, it's this fat guy?!"
He saw it; about six kilometers away, was Song Daqiang, Anna, and Li Tiantian's group.
These were old acquaintances, and Jia Zhengyi could track their movements from all angles. However, to conserve his energy, Jia Zhengyi hadn't paid much attention to the movements of these three people.
But now, coincidentally, these people have come to us on their own!
Because Ellie had been using her mind-control abilities, Jia Zhengyi's thoughts were transmitted smoothly to the team. Xiao Linlin was slightly surprised when she sensed it: "Are they trying to escape?"
"Hmm... let's wait until they get closer before making contact, let them pass."
After a moment's hesitation, Xiao Linlin ultimately decided to spare the fat man's life.
There's no need for me to break the rules now just to complete a killing mission since my brother didn't kill those people back then. A few more heads won't make a difference anyway.
"They look like they're trying to escape, but their posture is just wrong."
As Jia Zhengyi observed, he frowned and said, "Linlin, this fat guy seems very flustered. I can't see their specific expressions, but I can sense that their breathing is erratic and panicked... as if they are hiding from something?"
"Are they being hunted down?"
Xiao Linlin raised an eyebrow, and Jia Zhengyi shook his head: "No, I'm pretty sure of that. They seem to be fleeing, but there shouldn't be anyone nearby, and I didn't sense any danger."
Jia Zhengyi has a wider range of perception of danger, exceeding 1000 meters. Although this range is suppressed by higher-level abilities, it is basically sufficient for now.
Moreover, when Xiao Linlin asked this question, her gaze also fell on Lyanna.
Lyanna shook her head silently, making it clear: she hadn't sensed any danger either.
"Strange, we're not being chased, yet we're running in a panic... Hmm, is it a mission? Or a mechanic?"
Xiao Linlin lowered her head in thought, feeling very curious.
Based on her previous observations, the Fat Squad was already considered a small but strong team, capable of touching the bottom of the C-1 area, and might even be stronger.
With a team of that strength, unless they're unlucky enough to encounter an extremely strong opponent, they could fight anyone. It's unlikely they would end up in such a sorry state.
"Could it be due to something in the game world this time?"
Xiao Linlin frowned, thinking of the secret the fat man had hidden before the game started. After a moment of thought, she took the initiative to take command: "Brother Jia, take 20 purebloods and go pick him up."
"Huh? We still have to pick him up?"
Jia Zhengyi was taken aback and sensed something was wrong: "Twenty purebloods... Linlin, is this really necessary? Is there this level of danger?"
With this team size, combined with the Pokémon's tacit understanding and unity, they can basically sweep away everything within the S-rank strength range.
"Better safe than sorry."
Xiao Linlin responded in a low voice, glanced at Lyanna again, and nodded in acknowledgment.
Lyanna silently raised her bow, and the golden dragon dagger arrow materialized, aimed at Jia Zhengyi.
If necessary, Lyanna's arrows will provide immediate support.
"Okay, wait for my message."
With a serious expression, Jia Zhengyi immediately joined up with the purebloods and rushed to the front without stopping.
