Chapter 215: Force the King



Jiang Bai's entire body was enveloped in warm white light, and his health, which had been reduced to a sliver, was instantly restored. The negative effects on his body also began to gradually disappear.

He was in top form. He glanced disdainfully at Xu Kun, who was about to catch him with outstretched arms, then performed a clean backflip and landed steadily on the ground.

Xu Kun: "...What kind of look is that? I came to save you, and you're complaining about me?"

Jiang Bai glanced at him indifferently, then spread his arms, and silvery-white light gradually condensed in his hand, finally forming an exquisite and gorgeous bow.

"Whoosh whoosh!"

The silver arrow shot out like a meteor, followed by a sharp whistling sound.

The silver-white arrows, imbued with powerful energy, instantly struck several mummies. The mummies that were hit did not even make a sound before turning into a cloud of black mist and dissipating into the air!

"Damn! You're really putting on a show!" Gu Xiaobei swung his hammer and killed a low-health mummy, feeling like he was being blinded by the aura of the king of arrogance.

Perhaps impressed by Jiang Bai's showy manner, the others then took turns demonstrating what it meant to show off in various creative ways.

His expressions are as arrogant as they can be, and his movements are as pretentious as they can be, almost like a peacock courting its mate.

Gu Mian: ...

Fortunately, after this series of bizarre maneuvers, the mummies were wiped out.

The mummies: ...

Alright, alright, we've achieved our goal only because we're injured!

...

The ground was covered with a dense layer of black boxes. Gu Xiaobei squatted in front of the boxes and curiously patted them: "It's all black. What's inside these?"

Qin Huaizhou squatted to the side, happily munching on chicken feet: "Why don't you open one and see for yourself?"

“That makes sense!” Gu Xiaobei nodded in agreement, then lifted the lid.

[Received: Teleportation Scroll *1]

[Teleportation Scroll: Write the coordinates of the destination on the scroll to teleport to that point.]

Gu Xiaobei looked at the white scroll with considerable frustration: "This thing doesn't seem to be of any use?"

Isn't this the same function as a team card?

"It works! Who said it doesn't!" Qin Huaizhou snatched the scroll, overjoyed, "I have some coordinates here that supposedly lead to rare resources, but I haven't been able to find the location yet. Now that I have this scroll, I can teleport there!"

Gu Xiaobei raised an eyebrow: "Oh, but this is my scroll."

Qin Huaizhou chuckled: "Good brother, we'll split the supplies 55/50 once we find them!"

Gu Xiaobei crossed her arms: "37 points, you get 3 and I get 7."

Qin Huaizhou's expression changed: "This won't do, brother. I'm not trying to be mean, but without my coordinates, this scroll is useless!"

"How about this?" He gritted his teeth, putting on an act as if I'd been taken advantage of: "46 points! I get 4, you get 6. It's only because it's you, brother, that I wouldn't do this with anyone else!"

As he spoke, he put his arm around Gu Xiaobei's shoulder, looking like they were good buddies.

"Alright then." Gu Xiaobei pouted and took back the scroll: "Let's set a time after we get out of here."

Qin Huaizhou readily agreed: "No problem!"

...

While Qin Huaizhou and Gu Xiaobei finished discussing the distribution of supplies, Gu Mian happily packed all the boxes into her backpack.

Zhou Ye casually opened a Shadow Chest: "We've completed half of the main quest. Should we continue with the quests, or find a place to spend the night?"

[Received: Mystic Crystal*1]

[Mystic Crystal: A special ore that can be smelted with weapons, with a chance to increase the weapon's attack value.]

Zhou was stunned for a moment, then calmly put the Xuanjing into his backpack.

Moza: "How about we go find something to eat first?"

After expending his energy, his satiety level was less than 50.

Zhou Ye: "I'm fine with anything."

Then he looked at Gu Mian, who immediately stood up and said, "Let's go, I'm a little hungry too."

I must say, fighting monsters is quite physically demanding.

...

The Dark Star was filled with graves of all sizes, and Gu Mian and her group searched for a long time but couldn't find a spacious spot.

In the end, having no other choice, they had to settle for a place with relatively few graves.

"That's fine, I'm too lazy to walk anymore." Xu Kun took out a beanbag chair and sat down on it.

Gu Xiaobei leaned closer and said, "Brother, your chair looks pretty good."

"That's right." Xu Kun leaned back and crossed his legs. "So, how about we eat together or separately?"

No sooner had he finished speaking than he saw Gu Mian already eating a bowl of spicy chicken noodles.

Xu Kun: "..."

"Hey sis...is it a bad idea to eat spicy noodles this late? Aren't you worried about getting a stomachache from the spiciness?"

Gu Mian sniffed: "It's alright, not very spicy."

Xu Kun: "..."

If you hadn't almost cried from the spiciness, I might have actually believed you!

"Have some tea to calm down." Zhou poured the freshly brewed tea into a white porcelain cup and then slowly pushed it in front of Gu Mian.

Gu Mian didn't say anything, but picked up the cup and drank it in one gulp.

Xu Kun: "..."

Wait, when did this coffee table appear?

...

"Brother, why don't we rest here for a bit?" Nie Yu licked his dry lips, took out a bottle of mineral water, unscrewed the cap, took a few small sips, and then put it back into his backpack.

She was running low on water in her backpack, and with no idea when she would be able to complete her mission and leave this place, she needed to conserve her water.

"Hmm." Nie Yun responded softly, his eyes scanning the graves on both sides of the road with a wary look.

Since the portal appeared in Nie Yu's bathroom last time, they decided to go in and take a look without much hesitation.

They wouldn't let go of a place that could potentially make them stronger, even if the chance was only slight.

Little did I expect that once I went in, I would never come out again.

After a moment of silence, Nie Yu suddenly sighed: "Brother, will we be unable to leave this place?"

“No.” Nie Yun sat down on the ground, his gaze firm: “Brother will definitely take you away.”

Nie Yu took a deep breath and forced a smile: "Brother, I..."

"Ugh! Ugh! Ugh!"

Before he could finish speaking, eerie sounds came from the graves on both sides of the road, and then dark blue claws broke through the soil and stretched out!

"Run!" Nie Yunteng jumped up from the ground and grabbed Nie Yu as they ran.

Before Nie Yu could catch her breath, Nie Yun grabbed her arm and started running again. She gritted her teeth and took out several small landmines from her backpack with her free hand. Without even aiming, she threw them all at the mummy chasing behind her.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!" Several times, the mummies were blown half to death, but it did not affect their pursuit at all.

...

"What's that sound?" Gu Mian looked up in confusion.

Xu Kun hesitated and said, "It sounds like a landmine exploding."

“That’s right.” Jiang Bai nodded affirmatively: “It was the sound of a landmine exploding.”

Gu Xiaobei asked in surprise, "What do you mean? Are there other people here besides us?"
