Not long after, Xun Hui retreated back into Area A, and said in a deep voice:
"You guys, still haven’t left?"
Wen Xishu replied:
"Senior, don’t treat us as burdens. What if we’re actually useful?"
Xun Hui said:
"The monsters in here, they’re indeed plants, very hard to deal with. Mainly, the process of getting close to them is extremely troublesome. Their strength is much greater than the original guardian."
"It’s too dangerous for you to stay here."
At this moment, Wen Xishu told Xun Hui about his analysis just now.
After listening, Xun Hui was silent for a few seconds and then said:
"Feasible, I’ll give it a try."
He was actually very surprised that Wen Xishu thought of this during the battle. It seems that this boy indeed has talent.
It’s not just relying on some treasure left by Wen Chaohua, but truly has the ability to interpret the situation.
Xun Hui didn’t waste any time. He was very receptive to advice, no matter how strong or weak the person giving it. If it made sense, he would listen; if not, he would reject it.
He quickly tied various supplies together with rope, but still felt there wasn’t enough. So, he simply tied several shelves from Area A together side by side. Then, using his incredible strength, he dragged several rows of shelves, along with the goods on them, directly inside.
Although this time it relied on strategy and intellect, the fighting style gave off a sense of simple brutality.
Yue Yun complained:
"If he could do it, he’d probably crush the entire Area A into a ball and throw it into Area B, right?"
Nissen nodded:
"With this guy’s strength... he probably could do it!?"
Xiaojin said:
"It feels like with Brother Wen pairing up with Senior Xun, even the fifty-plus floors wouldn’t be that difficult..."
Wen Xishu shook his head and said:
"This is just the beginning."
Wen Xishu didn’t think it was easy here. In fact, he felt this place was much more dangerous than Deceit Tower.
Although he guessed some characteristics of the monsters, it was pure luck that they encountered monsters they had time to guess and analyze.
It just so happened that this supermarket had this kind of structure. If it were a different scenario but the same monsters, they might already be dead.
In Area B, Xun Hui dragged several rows of shelves into Area B, which indeed brought results.
At first, the plant vines attacked Xun Hui. He dodged lightly, and then those vines inadvertently scratched the goods on the shelves.
In no time, these vines began to squirm irregularly, like cockroaches sprayed with pesticide, started running chaotically, and then slammed into the walls. The vines whipped around the area wildly, no longer as organized as at the start.
Xun Hui felt that these goods indeed, as Wen Xishu said, could harm the plants.
He gained confidence and charged more fiercely into the depths of Area B.
With these goods, combined with the aura he exuded that threatened the monsters, these bizarre plants were in a contradictory state.
Their limited intelligence made them feel the need to attack the enemy, as this enemy’s threat was much greater than the original master of the area.
But at the same time, they didn’t dare attack those harmful goods.
This hesitation caused their movements to slow, giving Xun Hui an unimpeded path.
Finally, in the dark depths of Area B, at the place heavily guarded by numerous vines, light appeared.
It was something like a divine spirit, the root and soul of these bizarre plants.
Without any hesitation, Xun Hui summoned an orange-level sword from his inventory, dropped at the fifty-fifth floor.
He didn’t use the sword to stab but to throw.
Gathering all his strength in his arm, he fiercely launched the sword. The orange flying sword turned into a stream of light, shooting directly towards the glow.
The ground bore a scar, and the terrifying flying sword cut through a distance of 150 meters from Area B, even slicing through to the outside of the supermarket.
The flying sword finally returned to Xun Hui’s hand, with a sticky green liquid resembling bile on the blade.
But gradually, it turned into white smoke and dissipated from the blade.
Xun Hui took a deep breath, knowing he had completed the kill.
Kill count, 3.
This time it was undoubtedly a boss-level monster, and Xun Hui completed one-fifth of his target immediately.
However, he also realized he needed to rest. His slaughter value hadn’t reached its limit yet, but it was definitely not enough to kill another boss-level monster.
...
...
In the dim supermarket, there was finally firelight.
This was also the first time Wen Xishu saw a bonfire. The group sat at the edge between Area A and Area B. The light of the bonfire wasn’t enough to reach outside, but inside, it provided some visibility.
The fireball of the bonfire was small, roughly the size of a basketball, and it didn’t rely on wood to burn. Looking over, one saw just a fireball floating half a meter off the ground. As long as there were Bunker People around, the bonfire could keep burning.
If no Bunker players were around for more than 24 hours, the bonfire would automatically extinguish.
Wen Xishu and his group sat by the bonfire, each feeling much more comfortable.
"The bonfire is a temporary safe zone. While not absolutely safe, it greatly reduces the chance of Wanderers exploring the area."
"Also, within the bonfire’s range, slaughter value decreases by 5% every hour. And corresponding stamina is restored."
It was Yue Yun who spoke.
Considering that Wenxun was actually lighting the bonfire for the first time, Yue Yun shared all he knew with him.
The main reason was...
He seemed to only feel some sense of presence in such a place.
