I told you to plant peas, and you summon Mordekaiser?

When Chen Yang returned to the two of them, Chi Zigao's face still showed lingering fear.

He was speechless, as if he had seen a ghost.

Huangfu Qinghe sized up Chen Yang, a hint of doubt showing between his brows.

"I knew you were something special. But this time, I'm really curious, how did you manage to do it?"

Chen Yang looked down at the card in his hand and simply smiled: "Lost and found."

He added, "During the second ascension qualifying round, I was teleported to the same town as before."

Chizi Gao finally regained his voice, his tone filled with undisguised shock:

"Lost and found? You make that sound so easy. That was a monster! And you just turned it into a card like that?"

"talk about it later."

Chen Yang put the card into his bracelet, glanced around, and said calmly, "We have more important things to do now."

Huangfu Qinghe nodded.

"Getting out of here is the priority. The commotion we just made was too loud; we don't know what it might attract."

"It's best if it's not a sixth-tier monster."

Chi Zigao muttered under his breath, trying to hide his still trembling hands, "My heart can't take it anymore."

The three continued along the path through the mist, encountering several close calls along the way.

Gradually, the pinkish-purple mist faded, and the surrounding trees became sparser.

A few rays of sunlight began to penetrate the forest and fall on the ground.

Huangfu Qinghe looked ahead and breathed a slight sigh of relief: "We should be getting out of here soon."

Chi Zigao, however, had a strange expression on his face the whole way. He couldn't help but look back and said in a low voice:

“I always feel like there’s something watching us.”

"Don't scare yourself." Huangfu Qinghe patted his shoulder and smiled reassuringly. "The more you think about it, the more likely it is."

"Yumi is scouting the area; nothing will go wrong," Chen Yang reassured her.

At this point, Chen Yang changed the subject, "I have an idea."

The two looked at him at the same time, and Chi Zigao couldn't help but ask, "What are you thinking?"

"Drop the bracelet." Chen Yang raised his hand, his calm tone carrying an unwavering determination.

Chizi Gao seemed to have heard some absurd suggestion. He was stunned for a long time before stammering out:

"Throw away the bracelet? Do you know how important this thing is? Without it, how will we contact the outside world, how will we store resources?"

Huangfu Qinghe did not refute, but instead nodded slightly: "Actually, I have the same thought."

Chi Zigao was completely stunned, and raised his voice: "What are you two thinking?"

"Calm down." Chen Yang looked at him, his eyes sharp. "Wearing this means we'll be under military surveillance."

Huangfu Qinghe took over the conversation, his tone calm but with an undeniable chill: "While they are issuing orders, they are also receiving our information at all times."

Chi Zigao subconsciously took a step back: "Yeah, so what?"

“They don’t care about our lives. If we get back under their control, this will happen again. Don’t forget, we almost died this time.”

Chen Yang's tone remained calm, yet it was like an invisible blade that sliced ​​through Chi Zigao's heart: "As long as the bracelet is still there, they can find us at any time and send us to our deaths with a single command."

Chizi Gao opened his mouth, but no sound came out.

Huangfu Qinghe added, "Rather than being manipulated by others, we should seize this opportunity to get rid of them completely."

Silence spread among the three.

Chi Zigao frowned, his gaze sweeping back and forth between the two men, his expression complex.

He lowered his head in thought, his fingers unconsciously clenching the edge of the bracelet, and finally gritted his teeth.

"Okay... but what about the stuff in the bracelet?"

"This is simple."

Chen Yang took out a tactical backpack from the space in his bracelet, threw it on the ground, and unzipped it.

"Everyone has this bag; most supplies can be put in here."

"Fine..."

The three of them transferred the resources from their bracelets into their backpacks.

During the transition, Chen Yang discovered two new cards within the bracelet's storage space.

The talent card that Chen Yang just obtained.

He discovered that after arriving in this world, there was no longer a player panel, and there were no more levels or garden bonuses.

But as long as he has a thought, he can still see a progress bar.

Before this, the progress bar was stuck halfway through and hadn't changed.

The progress bar only moved forward a little when he was killing zombies on the front lines in Riverwood.

Just as Rek'Sai was devouring the Tombstone Devourer Tree, the progress bar suddenly surged, filling up twice in a row.

Chen Yang speculated that he would receive a talent card once the progress bar was full.

This time, the talent card given to it is Bloodharbor Ghost, Pyke.

The other card made Chen Yang's eyes burn with desire.

The Great Sage Equaling Heaven, Sun Wukong.

...

Finally, they stood at the edge of the forest, gazing at the bracelet lying on the ground.

Chi Zigao hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Will this really get rid of them?"

"At least, they can't find us anymore."

Chen Yang slung his backpack over his shoulder and stepped out of the forest first.

Huangfu Qinghe followed closely behind, his steps steady.

Chi Zigao stood there, looking at the discarded bracelet. After a moment of silence, he finally turned around and caught up with them.
