Chapter Four: First Encounter

Seeing the people chasing closely behind, Fu Muyu slammed on the brakes, opened the car door, and pushed Qin Xiao out.

They then immediately accelerated, ignoring the jeep's increasingly intense fire, and drove straight into the dense forest.

I had long suspected that the enemy wouldn't let them take back the meteorite crystal without any precautions; they would definitely tamper with it.

But no matter how much he planned, Fu Muyu never expected that his brother Mo Qingfeng would betray him, and he had no time to deal with the tracker on the meteorite crystal.

Fu Muyu stared blankly ahead. "Cough cough..." The smell of smoke in the car grew stronger and stronger, and the grinding sound of gears became more and more grating. Fu Muyu made a decisive move, opened the car door, covered his head, and jumped out.

"boom--"

A deafening explosion came from behind, and Fu Muyu was thrown into the air by the shockwave.

"Cough cough," Fu Muyu clutched his chest, feeling the bulge on his chest, knowing that the meteorite crystal was still there. Fu Muyu gritted his teeth and insisted on carrying the meteorite crystal as he stumbled deeper into the dense forest.

"Quick, they must be nearby!"

Ignoring the excruciating pain from his arm hitting the tree trunk, Fu Muyu dragged his aching body and slowly moved forward.

The dense ancient trees had completely blocked out the sky.

Even though the sun hadn't set yet, there wasn't a single ray of light in sight; it was pitch black, providing Fu Muyu with perfect cover.

"Captain, shall we continue?"

The quiet darkness made those who were also chasing Fu Muyu hesitant to make any rash moves, and they didn't even turn on their flashlights.

"Xiao Fei, are you sure this is the place with the most energy points in the vicinity?"

After successfully mining five jade mines for free, Long Yangyang excitedly watched her energy points surge from 740 to 2100. Instantly rich, Long Yangyang spent ten energy points to have Xiao Fei take her to the place with the most energy points nearby.

[Yangyang, I'm sure there are at least 1000 energy points here.]

Wow! Xiao Fei's answer thrilled Long Yangyang. A thousand points! That must be a rich mine, one mine is worth two or three of the previous ones.

Powered by the energy points, Long Yangyang ignored the darkness before her and excitedly said, "Xiao Fei, quick, collect energy points!"

[Okay, Yangyang. The energy point is estimated to be about 500 meters to the left and front. Yangyang, hurry and grab it! Xiaofei detected that the energy point's owner is unconscious; this is the perfect opportunity for us to strike.]

Long Yangyang: ? ? ?

Isn't this a jade mine?

[It's not jade, Yangyang, it's a fragment of Star Origin.]

Sensing Long Yangyang's question, Xiao Fei explained:

[A Star Source Fragment can provide 1000 energy points. Yangyang, let's go! Let's grab it!]

Long Yangyang: Although, but, there are so many energy points.

Although she felt it was wrong to steal from others, there were so many energy points. As long as no one knew, Long Yangyang thought she could make a living doing this.

Following Xiao Fei's instructions, Long Yangyang slowly adjusted her direction and walked forward.

"Xiao Fei, are we there yet?"

【immediately. 】

Long Yangyang: ......You've said that a million times.

Xiao Fei: You've asked this question countless times.

Long Yangyang: ......Okay, you're the best, you call the shots.

Long Yangyang cautiously groped her way forward, "Ouch~"

Suddenly, before Long Yangyang could even lift her foot, she tripped over something and lost her balance, falling forward.

"Ah—I'm disfigured, I'm disfigured!" Long Yangyang frantically raised her hands to cover her face, but the expected pain didn't come. Long Yangyang subconsciously lowered her hands and groped around nearby.

It's soft, it looks like... a person?!

Could it be a dead person?!

Long Yangyang frantically raised her hand, groping around, and finally found her nose: Whew, thank goodness, she's still breathing.

Long Yangyang quickly climbed off the other person's body.

[Yangyang, don't get up! The Star Origin Fragment is on him. Quickly grab it! Energy, energy!]

Oh, right, energy points. Long Yangyang remembered the purpose of her visit and subconsciously listened to Xiao Fei's words, searching for them on the other person.

"Xiao Fei, is this it?" Long Yangyang took out a bottle about the size of an adult's thumb from the other person's chest.

Inside the bottle, the rhomboid crystals shimmered with starlight in the dark and silent environment, dazzlingly bright.

"That's it, Yangyang, open it quickly."

Long Yangyang took out the Star Source Fragment and looked curiously at the small fragment in her hand. It was a tiny crystal, only the size of an electronic chip, yet it was equivalent to the energy points provided by two or three jade mines.

Since it belongs to someone else, especially judging from the shape of the "human-shaped object" at their feet, it must be something very important to the other party.

As she took it, Long Yangyang felt a strange sense of guilt.

Of course, the reality left Long Yangyang no room for guilt, because the next second, the Star Source Fragment in Long Yangyang's hand dissipated, and needless to say, Xiao Fei absorbed it without even saying a word.

"Yangyang, come on, the animals in the forest are starting to riot."

what?

Long Yangyang instantly became alert. The previously silent dense forest suddenly began to rustle. Long Yangyang subconsciously looked around, but unfortunately, all she could see was darkness.

Thirty-six strategies, walking is the best strategy.

Now that she had the item, Long Yangyang was about to get up when she remembered the man lying dead next to her. "Oh well, I took his things, so I might as well save his life."

"Xiao Fei, take us to the hotel room."

【Okay, Yangyang, that will cost 20 energy points.】

"Okay, okay." Having just received a huge sum of a thousand energy points, Long Yangyang naturally didn't care about the extra energy points spent on bringing people along.

Back in her familiar room, Long Yangyang breathed a sigh of relief, finally free from the feeling of being constantly on edge.

"Xiao Fei?"

【Yangyang, thank goodness we ran fast, otherwise you would have been eaten by the wolves.】

What? It's such a dangerous place? Xiao Fei is really unreliable. Cold sweat dripped down Long Yangyang's forehead. No wonder she felt something was wrong.

When did the wolf pack arrive?

[I've always been here, Yangyang. I was drawn here by the smell of blood and the fragments of Star Origin.]

When Long Yangyang heard this, her heart skipped a beat. So, had she just taken a trip among a pack of wolves?

After Xiao Fei and Long Yangyang formed a contract, they became connected and began to explain:

When we arrived, because the Star Source fragments were in a bottle that had a certain effect of isolating Star Source energy, the wolves, out of caution, did not rush up when they saw us suddenly appear.

Later, after you took out the Star Source Fragment, Yangyang, the wolf pack went berserk. Luckily, we ran fast, otherwise your arm would have been bitten off by the wolves.

Long Yangyang: Xiao Fei, you rascal! It's so dangerous, why don't you just take me and run away?

Xiao Fei noticed that Long Yangyang was a little annoyed and tried to comfort her:

【Oh dear, Yangyang, don't be afraid. How about this spatial barrier? It only costs 100 energy points and will perfectly protect you from any harm.】

Long Yangyang: o(╥﹏╥)o, it's too expensive, I can't afford it.
