Chapter 80: The Dark Forest!

As everyone thought about Sakurai Longzi’s question, many thoughts rose in their minds.

If there were not enough soul beasts…

The Awakened Ones would inevitably kill each other.

Chen Feng couldn’t help but think of the “Law of the Dark Forest” from the famous science fiction novel “The Three-Body Problem”.

Under the current circumstances, the laws seemed to be completely applicable.

Everyone needed a soul potion, and they all needed the [Barrow’s Souls]. This was a hard requirement. After all, without [Barrow’s Souls], they would definitely die.

There were not enough soul beasts in the entire forest, so the forest had turned into the “Dark Forest”. One had to walk through this silent and dark forest without making any noise. Any slight movement one made would attract the pursuit of hunters.

If you do not want to die… do not make any noise.

It was not enough for one to remain silent. This was because they did not have enough [Barrow’s Souls]. If they did not do anything, death would await them.

Therefore, while maintaining silence, one still had to seek out other people that made noise and hunt them down.

If one discovered any other team, they must kill them mercilessly and steal their [Barrow’s Souls]!

Even if you do not kill them, they will kill you!

If you do not kill anyone, the curse will kill you!

…

Chen Feng slowly opened his eyes. His mind was filled with infinite thoughts during that short period of time.

“What should we do now?”

Pu Yunmo, Sakurai Longzi, and Blake’s gazes were all focused on Chen Feng.

They were obviously not ordinary people since they could be part of his team.

Pu Yunmo was the young master of South Korea’s biggest tycoon, the Pu Family. Sakurai Longzi was a descendant of a Japanese witch family. Both of them had been through many storms, and they were decisive people.

Both of them naturally considered everything that Chen Feng had thought of.

However, Chen Feng was the captain of this team, so the few of them quietly awaited his orders.

“First…let’s continue to search for soul beasts. Do not engage in battle with other teams easily, but if someone sets their sights on us…”

At this point, Chen Feng’s eyes suddenly opened.

The icy killing intent in his eyes seemed to solidify and pierce through the air!

“Kill the attackers!”

“I was waiting for you to say that.” A beautiful smile appeared on Sakurai Longzi’s lips as she instantly revealed her enchanting charm.

Right then, Chen Feng was stunned.

After regaining his senses, he swallowed silently.

He almost forgot…Sakurai Longzi had the SS-rank talent of [Succubus Temptation]. It was a talent that was known as the strongest male assassin. She was a natural sexy stunner.

So what? Chen Feng mumbled in his heart.

She still had a flat body that did not stick out. Chen Feng still preferred…women with hot bodies!

All the teams seemed to have realized the scarcity of soul beasts in the forest.

Chen Feng could hear the sounds of battle coming from afar during the subsequent half an hour.

It was obvious that this was a battle between players due to the strong elemental waves that he detected.

Chen Feng had the SSS-rank talent of [Elemental Affinity]. He could still feel the traces of the collision between elements even if he was a few kilometers away,

“At least eight teams have already gone against each other.”

A fight between two teams meant that some people would die.”

This was not society in real life. There were no rules here.

If one defeated their opponent and stole their [Barrow’s Soul], one might feel soft-hearted and spare their lives.

However, one would be allowing danger to roam freely by doing so.

One’s opponent might not remember their kindness. Instead, they might hate them and turn into their enemy.

In that case, one might encounter their opponent’s revenge in [Gaotian Plains]. Even after leaving Gaotian Plains, conflicts would exist between different forces.

Therefore, one had to kill their opponents harshly if a battle arose.

Everything would be resolved on the spot, and this was the simplest and most straightforward method to proceed ahead.

Soon, they arrived at an open space where a battle had taken place.

“That’s the team from the [Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets].”

Pu Yunmo said in a deep voice.

Pu Yunmo recognized the identity of the ones who had fought here earlier from the equipment that had exploded into pieces on the ground as well as the marks left behind.

“This is a team from the [Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets] from France. They were completely wiped out here.”

“I can’t tell…who the opponent is.”

After Park Yunmo took a closer look, he shook his head.

The corpses of the members of the team from the [Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets] had clearly been disposed of, so Chen Feng and the others could only mourn for them quietly.

Meanwhile, they had no intentions to take revenge.

First of all, the team that killed [Mystery Pavilion] ‘s French team was very careful. They did not leave any obvious traces of the direction that they were headed to. If they wanted to find them, they would need to spend a lot of time and effort doing so. It might not yield fruitful results for them.

Besides, they were under special circumstances right now. Therefore, all the teams had a subtle hostile relationship with each other. The battle was not because caused by hatred, but purely due to the urge to steal [Barrow’s Souls] from the others for survival.

If this happened in the real world outside [Gaotian Plains]…

Everything would be completely different.

Regardless of the identity of their opponents or what faction that they belonged to, the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets would chase them to the ends of the earth to take revenge as long if they so much as dared to act ruthlessly toward any of their members.

This was due to the reputation of [Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets] as one of the four great guilds of the world.

After inspecting their surroundings, Pu Yunmo and the others were about to leave when they realized that Chen Feng, their captain, was still squatting where he was. He seemed to be looking for something.

“Chen Feng, hurry up and set off. We are still lacking a lot of [Barrow’s Souls]!”

“Wait.”

Chen Feng looked like an old scholar as he squatted on the ground and observed it carefully.

It was as if he was conducting some sort of meticulous research.

“What did you find?”

Sakurai Longzi, who understood Chen Feng best, was the first to realize that Chen Feng must have made some special discovery. She immediately approached him.

“The flow of elemental residual power…”

Chen Feng mumbled to himself.

He slowly closed his eyes, and his mental power surged out like a tide.

Since he had the SSS-rank talent [Upgrade Alone], he would have the chance to obtain some Initial Attribute Points every time he leveled up. Chen Feng allocated a few points to his Constitution and gave the rest to his mental power.

Boom!

The illusory world of one’s consciousness could also be considered as the reality of another dimension.

Chen Feng’s spiritual energy turned substantive. He unleashed a terrifying amount of power, which flooded the entire forest.

He could sense that the different attributes of the members of the team that had fought over here…and the direction that they had headed to.

Chen Feng’s slowly opened his eyes as his gaze locked onto a direction in the dense forest.

“I found it.”
