What are they going to do?
"Are you crazy? It's almost dark!"
Even Deng Qi and Yuan Junxiang's car hesitated and stopped.
A group of people stared in disbelief as Xiao He's car disappeared into the darkness.
On the west coast, there is a huge rock that becomes an isolated island at high tide, while the seawater will flood to the western wall of White Moon City, which is where the guards need to protect.
"They...they're not going to that deserted island, are they?!" Everyone finally realized.
It's high tide now, and judging by Xiao He's speed, he should be able to reach the island before the rocks turn into one.
“Xiao Qi, let’s go too.” Xiao Ai, who was sitting in the passenger seat, suddenly spoke up.
Upon hearing this, Deng Qi looked at her incredulously: "What did you say?!"
“She’s putting pressure on us.” Xiao Ai frowned slightly, seemingly sensing how difficult the eighteenth group was: “Not only that, this is also the final round of selection.”
"Those who remain in the city to defend the city are destined to fall behind the front-line troops. However, not every unit has the capacity to fight through the night."
"Her advantage was that her team had two priests."
Xiao Ai let out a soft sigh: "I have to say, she's really brave."
"Ha! It's just about competing, right? What she can do, I can do too!" Deng Qi narrowed her eyes, her competitive nature causing her to instantly accelerate to top speed.
Yuan Junxiang was stunned to see that Deng Qi's car had also followed them.
His team didn't have a priest because everyone was at a mid-to-high level and rarely needed a priest to replenish their status.
But that doesn't mean they can be as unrestrained as Group 18.
"To be stranded on a deserted island and fight continuously all night?!" Yuan Junxiang's teammates dared not even imagine it.
The others also realized the audacity of Xiao He's actions. Since the group had entered the city without priests, it was better to secure a good position on the city walls than to entertain such unrealistic ideas.
Even the teams with priests were assessing their own capabilities; if they weren't confident they could hold out until the tide receded, following them would be suicide.
"As expected of a rookie, he's really good at seizing the initiative..." Yuan Junxiang gripped the steering wheel tightly, took a deep breath, and stepped on the gas in front of his teammates' incredulous gazes.
Finally, a somewhat worn blue car started up almost simultaneously with Yuan Junxiang's white car, only slightly behind.
At this point, including the eighteenth group formed on the fifth day of the lunar month, there are a total of four teams heading towards the isolated island.
Xiao He dared to take such a risk because he had just advanced to the ranks of intermediate elementalists with the help of the Netherworld Mission.
In other words, he received three new intermediate skills from the system.
"Only three teams have arrived?"
Xiao He glanced at the rearview mirror with slight surprise, feeling that he had overestimated the courage of these people.
Along the way, he released all of Wusheng's anger, and the lush flowers, plants and trees along the road were thanks to him, which left the following caravans completely stunned.
"Splash—"
Seawater lapped against the tires and the car body, and every now and then a mutated sea monster would extend a tentacle.
Su Mei's face turned deathly pale, and she couldn't help but tremble because she suffered from thalassophobia.
The island is not large, no more than the size of two basketball courts. Its surface is not only flat but also slightly sunken, resulting in some water accumulation on the ground.
Xiao He put away the carriage and summoned the Lifeless Blade, slashing it at the giant octopus that occupied the isolated island.
"Hey! Xiao He! Can we talk about something?" Yuan Junxiang called out as soon as he got out of the car.
"explain?"
"How about I give you ten magic cores for one treatment?"
"I don't like haggling, twenty pieces."
"...Thank you! It's a pleasure doing business with you!"
"polite."
Deng Qi, standing to the side, was dumbfounded. He hadn't expected Yuan Junxiang to follow with this idea, and he was even more surprised that Xiao He would agree so readily.
The seawater submerged the path they had taken, leaving the four teams stranded on the island.
