Amidst the thunderous roar.
The Bloodthirsty Ant Queen’s body exploded completely, countless green liquids shooting in all directions. Soon, the entire underground space was filled with a strong stench.
Seeing the kill notification popping up in his mind, Chen Fan nodded slightly.
The experience points from the Bloodthirsty Ant Queen were close to one million, similar to the Dragon-man he encountered last time. Clearly, it was somewhat special.
There were still many insect eggs around, so Chen Fan simply lit a fire. 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮
The flames burned fiercely, and amidst the firelight, the faint cries of Bloodthirsty Ant larvae could be heard.
Chen Fan’s furrowed brows slowly relaxed.
The Bloodthirsty Ants were basically all killed by him.
If things go smoothly, two days later when the Beast Tide hits the city, the only Fierce Beasts attacking should be the Vajra Rats.
Of course, if Bloodthirsty Ants or other types of burrowing Fierce Beasts still appear, he might be at a loss.
"Let’s hope it’s the former."
He murmured inwardly.
After all, Anshan City was just one of many small cities, nothing special. Those Fierce Beasts wouldn’t have any reason to give Anshan City special treatment.
If Anshan City withstands the first wave of the Beast Tide, it would stand out among the many fallen small cities.
It was likely that from then on, it would receive special attention from the Fierce Beasts.
After scanning the area again to ensure nothing was overlooked, he turned and walked toward the nearest exit.
A few minutes later, he emerged from the tunnel. It was deep within the rainforest, with lush foliage blocking out any sunlight.
"I’ll send Meng Xue a message first, let her predict again. If it’s useful, I’ll head to that Rat City."
Chen Fan muttered to himself.
Then he pulled out his phone, saw the signal had only one or two bars and was quite unstable.
Fortunately, sending a message was still feasible.
Soon after the message was sent, the phone vibrated twice, indicating a new message had arrived.
It was Meng Xue’s reply, saying she would predict around noon.
Chen Fan then put away his phone.
There were still one or two hours until noon. He could choose to return or explore other ruin cities, kill more Fierce Beasts to gain points and experience points. He could also stay here and try his luck, see if he could find any Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures.
Although the third option had a very small chance.
But luck is a fickle thing, who can really say?
Following the principle of "since I’m here," Chen Fan activated the Celestial Response.
Instantly, several powerful auras appeared in his mind.
Among them, three auras were most conspicuous.
Two of them were together, surrounded by more than a dozen other auras, much weaker in comparison.
The third powerful aura was surrounded by nearly a thousand auras.
The coincidence was that these auras almost clustered together.
Chen Fan squinted his eyes and smiled.
The Celestial Response Technique couldn’t perceive the aura of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures.
However, it could sense powerful humans or Fierce Beasts.
If these people or Fierce Beasts gathered together, it often indicated something significant.
There’s likely a treasure, probably right there.
"Hm?"
Just as he was about to move, he suddenly sensed a few familiar auras.
"Is it Chairman Shen and his group?"
Chen Fan furrowed his brows,
Unlike last time, the auras of Shen Si and others were noticeably weaker, surrounded by more than ten other auras, several of which were stronger than Shen Si’s.
"Looks like they’re in trouble."
Chen Fan glanced in the direction of the three powerful auras, hesitated for a moment, then headed toward Shen Si and his group.
Firstly, the three auras seemed to be in a stalemate, indicating the treasure hadn’t fully matured.
Secondly, they were all from the same association. He had a good opinion of Chairman Shen. Knowing this, he couldn’t ignore it and decided to go and see if he could help.
At this moment, southeast.
Shen Si and his group were surrounded by a group of people, each spitting blood, clearly gravely injured.
One man was severely wounded, his chest collapsed, barely breathing.
The people surrounding them were all blond with blue eyes, clearly not Yan Country People.
Shen Si half-kneeled on the ground, holding a long knife, gritting his teeth and glaring at the tall blond man leading the group.
"Friends, we already handed over those Fire Scale Fruits, what more do you want?"
Just now, Shen Si and his group found a Fire Scale Tree with seven or eight Fire Scale Fruits.
These fruits, the size of cantaloupes, red all over, covered in scale-like skin.
The name speaks for itself; Awakeners consuming these fruits can greatly enhance their affinity for fire elements, thus using more powerful fire element techniques.
Other types of Awakeners consuming them can also increase their resistance to fire elements.
The price is twenty thousand points per fruit, eight fruits totaling one hundred sixty thousand points—a significant gain for Shen Si and his group.
However, before they could warm them in their hands, these people appeared and demanded the fruits.
If the enemy was enraged, their predicament would worsen.
"Is that true?"
Shen Si looked at the leading blond man, "If we hand over our belongings, you’ll let us go?"
"Of course."
Kevin smiled, "In your Yan Country language, I’m a man of my word."
"Fine."
Shen Si began taking things out of his space items.
The eyes of the dozen Feng Country people instantly changed.
"Cyan Leaf Grass, consuming it increases speed significantly."
"Water Element Fruit? Oh my, I need that!"
"Ice Crystal Fruit, I want this!"
"Oh my gosh, how many treasures does this guy have? Just these ten or so items are worth one hundred thousand points!"
"Edna, don’t act like you’ve never seen the world. It’ll make the opponent think we’re easy to fool."
They spoke among themselves.
Their faces gradually flushed, saliva nearly dripping.
Meanwhile, Shen Si’s group watched with hearts bleeding.
These Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures were collected painstakingly over half a month.
Especially the Ice Crystal Fruits, guarded by an Ice Snake, the Chairman got severely injured.
But now, these treasures were handed over, given away.
"Chairman, that’s enough!" Someone internally shouted.
Continuing would waste their half-month’s effort.
Shen Si understood this.
But he knew, unless satisfied, they wouldn’t leave alive.
"Celestial God Fruit!"
Next, the dozen Feng Country People exclaimed.
"I want the Celestial God Fruit, the rest you can have, it benefits me most." One spoke urgently.
"Gu De, stop talking nonsense. Do you think you’re the only one who hasn’t consumed a Celestial God Fruit?"
"Exactly, I haven’t consumed one either. Kevin, the fruit can help me reach B-level!"
"I can reach B-level too. Kevin, give me the fruit."
