1407: Chapter 71: Return 1407: Chapter 71: Return The weather in the tropical rainforest was freakishly unpredictable.
Just monts ago, the sun was blazing, scorching the ground, but now, thick clouds had gathered, and lightning after lightning burst through the sky, deafening everyone around.
In the blink of an eye, a torrential downpour drenched the rainforest.
The Blade Empress was wrapped in a shield that repelled the rain.
Tang Zheng also took out an umbrella, but the wind was so strong that it nearly blew the umbrella away.
Watching the sister duo, he had no choice but to gamble—Mirene was awake, and he only had two options: kill her or not.
If he didn’t kill her, the Plague Lord’s ability to control the field was too annoying.
If a real fight broke out, the other team mbers wouldn’t be able to cope.
Tang Zheng was in a state of severe injury, with less than ten percent of his combat power remaining, barely holding on.
He wasn’t sure he could control Mirene, so he had to take a chance.
“Be careful of what?
Big brother is a good person,” Mirene looked back, her pure smile blossoming as she pulled her sister’s hand, complaining incessantly, “Where did you guys go?
Such big people, actually getting lost.”
“Who is the one with no sense of direction?” Elizabeth glared at her sister.
“Okay, my bad,” Mirene frowned and apologized with her head down, but quickly changed the subject, “Oh, we just killed a BOSS, and I was too careless with the last hit.
If it wasn’t for big brother, I would definitely be dead.”
“Thank you!” The Blade Empress expressed gratitude, finally understanding why her sister trusted this stranger.
By his actions, he indeed seed like a virtuous gentleman.
“No need, I just don’t like taking advantage of others in danger,” said Tang Zheng with a shrug.
Both small squads had killed the Vine Boss and hurriedly gathered around, only feeling safe by staying close to the group leader.
“Are you okay?” Seeing Tang Zheng with his Xuanwu Protective Clothing largely shattered, Li Xinlan was quite anxious, and others also asked with concern.
Lu Fan even jumped at him, hanging on to Tang Zheng and planting a kiss on his face.
“I’m fine.” Tang Zheng signaled everyone to stay calm and be alert to their surroundings, as they were still not safe, and one careless move could lead to an ambush.
“Sister, look at big brother’s sword.
It’s the Undamaged Lake Light, a unique property, and very strong.” The Little Lolita sounded wistful, “If only I had found it first, it’s a sha I was too stupid and didn’t notice it.”
Mirene had her own code of conduct; if she had seen it first, she would never have given it to Tang Zheng.
“I hope you won’t waste that sword and that you manage to keep it safe.
Equipnt with unique properties is a target of contention for Seed Candidates,” Mu Nianqi glanced over without a trace of greed on her face, as calm as a placid lake.
“What are Seed Candidates?” Lu Fan didn’t want to be ignored, especially seeing how Mirene kept calling Tang Zheng ‘big brother,’ which annoyed her.
“Our Trojan World has seven of the strongest who are fearlessly known as Seeds.
Besides them, there are the Seed Candidates.
Although slightly less powerful, each one has the ability to single-handedly tackle a The World and is very tough to handle,” Mu Nianqi explained without issue due to her sister’s connection.
“Is Nuclear Fla also one of them?” Tang Zheng thought of that exceedingly strong guy.
“He’s a Seed from the North Arica Region, a very troubleso fellow.” Mu Nianqi had just finished speaking when the Trojan announcent ca through.
“Congratulations to all for killing the final BOSS and clearing the Golden City.
In one minute, you will be teleported back to the Trojan Room.”
“The Brazil team, last in mission contribution ranking, will be completely erased as punishnt.
The Japanese Team, second to last, will randomly erase a regular group mber as punishnt.”
The survivors had just let out a sigh of relief when the second blood-stained announcent tightened their hearts.
“The UK team is first in contribution and will receive a special reward.
Please collect it after returning to the Trojan Room.”
“It’s nice to follow the group leader,” a blonde woman happily danced with joy at the third announcent.
“The Blue Trojan is pretty humane,” Sha Ou said jealously, “I wish we were in the European Region.”
“The Silver Trojan in Asia Region is indeed annoying; it’s recognized as the one with the most evil taste, but Special Products are still good,” the vice group leader comnted, making Xu Biyun and the others perk up their ears.
“What Special Products?” Li Huiwen asked, now very interested in anything that could improve survival chances.
“You don’t know?” The vice group leader shrugged nonchalantly and shut his mouth; there was no need to share information that might harm his own interests.
Lu Fan wanted to ask further but was interrupted by Tang Zheng.
There was no need to ask; others weren’t fools.
“Elizabeth, from what you said just now, aside from our Trojan World, there are others?” Tang Zheng suddenly realized how little information he had.
Thinking of combating Trojan seed like a fool’s dream.
“Of course, there are other worlds.
What do you think those Beastn, Alien Species, are all about?” Mirene shook her finger, “To them, we are the aliens.”
“Yes, besides surviving in the Trojan World, the Seeds have a more important responsibility.
When your strength reaches a certain level, you will know,” as the Trojan began its countdown, Elizabeth didn’t feel like explaining anymore.
She took out an ice crystal and tossed it to Tang Zheng.
“Be careful,” Li Huiwen warned, but Tang Zheng caught it with his hand.
Lu Fan was the quickest to act, having already scanned the item with his wristwatch.
If it had been a dangerous object, he would have eliminated it imdiately.
Storm Core Crystal, 3S-grade, a rare prop, obtained in special scenes, capable of advancing the user’s water attribute and derived frost abilities to the next level.
“This was obtained by killing the Storm Chieftain.
I see that your team has a frost ability user, so I’m giving it to her, consider it the price for saving Mirene,” Elizabeth had actually greatly reduced her hostility toward Tang Zheng.
If he had taken advantage of her sister in a coma, she would definitely be dead.
“Well, then I won’t refuse it, Xin Lan, for you,” Tang Zheng casually threw it to Xin Lan.
He saved Mirene, not for a reward.
Tang Zheng actually didn’t want to accept it, but he considered Xin Lan’s well-being.
By using it, the lady’s strength would increase, and her chances of survival would be greater.
Besides, he had to give an explanation to the others.
The next ti they t the UK team, they would likely be enemies.
Saving Mirene could be seen as aiding the enemy.
“3S?
Truly affluent,” Xu Biyun glanced over the crystal and was so shocked that she stuck out her tongue.
Such special props were priceless; even if you had the points, you couldn’t buy them.
The others didn’t take it seriously at first but showing surprise on their faces after hearing what the video ga girl said, their view of the Blade Empress changed—so with admiration, others thinking she was a fool.
Elizabeth wasn’t good at expressing gratitude, but she deeply admired Tang Zheng.
Half of Mirene’s equipnt was obtained with her help, worth more than a million points, especially that Hand of Akmond, a unique piece of equipnt and a hard requirent for becoming a Seed in the future.
Elizabeth felt that any affluent Seed candidate would likely covet Mirene’s luxurious equipnt, yet he didn’t act on it.
“You have a good Group Leader!” Elizabeth gave Tang Zheng a deep look and led her subordinates away, “Let’s go.”
The group mbers just sighed.
They were no longer surprised by the Blade Empress’s knightly actions and had no complaints; after all, she was generous.
If not for her, they wouldn’t have survived this long.
“Big brother, goodbye,” Mirene had been exchanging stares with Lu Fan.
Upon hearing this, she waved to Tang Zheng and then gave Fanfan a mischievous face.
“I don’t want to see you!” Lu Fan retorted.
“Attention, please, the last ten seconds, teleportation will begin shortly,” announced the Trojan as the countdown was about to end.
“If Mirene died, you could revive her; why the rush?” Tang Zheng recalled Elizabeth’s words and thought of another question.
“What if the one resurrected is not herself?” Elizabeth didn’t turn around, but her words made everyone gasp, and their faces turned ugly.
Rain washed over the ruins of the Golden City, bringing silence to the world.
At that mont, everyone longed for ho.
“At last, we can go ho,” Li Huiwen heaved a sigh of relief.
She glanced at her husband and felt it was necessary to co up with a way to improve his status within the team, “Ran i, co over to my house.”
“Sure, Sister Li!” Ran i stood near Li Huiwen, smiling aningfully.
Having heard the introduction to the Trojan Room from Xin Lan to Li Huiwen, she found the world, almost entirely human, perfect.
It would surely beco her hunting ground as one possessed by an alien species.
The countdown ended, and everyone’s bodies began to teleport.
“Let’s talk about that Group Leader’s abilities,” Elizabeth valued Tang Zheng highly.
“He’s very strong, with well-rounded abilities, not easy to kill,” Mirene thought for a while, but it all ca down to one thing, “He should be treated as a priority.”
“How could he not be strong?
His observational skills are too ticulous.
I only said a few words, and he deduced many doubts, all about the core issues of the Trojan.
Such a cautious person is the most difficult to deal with,” Elizabeth actually knew her weakness—too knightly, “If you encounter him later, try not to challenge him one-on-one.”
“Group Leader, you rate him too highly.
That guy is preparing to go to the Holy Land, but his team’s configuration is too rough.
Once he sees the top thirty teams, he will know how much he weighs,” the blonde woman laughed proudly, “Our third of a team is enough to annihilate them.”
Elizabeth’s team was scattered, with only a third entering the ga.
“It turns out they have one unlucky soul possessed by a parasite, but nobody noticed.
No need for us to do anything; they might annihilate themselves,” the deputy group leader wasn’t worried either.
This Chinese team was not yet in his sight; their competitors were the Seed teams.
“Oh my, how co there are two extra Star Seeds and a shield?
Right, it must be from Big Brother,” Mirene rummaged through her wristwatch, unexpectedly finding new equipnt.
“Regardless, that guy is at least unassailable in his character.
He wouldn’t happen to have a moral kink, would he?” The UK team, having seen too many despicable acts, suddenly encountered the upright Tang Zheng, which they found unsettling.
