Buzz buzz buzz—
The Scent-Seeking Bee flew through the sewer.
Behind it, Ma Xingjue, draped in the Mimicry Cloak, surveyed the situation inside the sewer, inwardly filled with admiration.
"This guy is definitely a tough one. I also thought about establishing a shelter in the sewer before, but I ultimately couldn't make up my mind."
"No wonder his shelter ranking rose so fast. With that kind of tenacity, he's absolutely not an ordinary person."
Although he highly approved of the Yu Yuan Shelter in his heart, Ma Xingjue's desire to hunt down his target grew even more resolute.
The reason was simple: the more extraordinary the target, the richer the rewards from this hunt would be.
But he also grew increasingly vigilant.
The Scent-Seeking Bee led Ma Xingjue through the sewer and soon stopped before a ladder, then flew into a dark opening above it.
Seeing this, Ma Xingjue imdiately quickened his pace. Looking up at the pitch-black opening, a sharp glint flashed in his eyes.
"Found it!"
He didn't enter imdiately. Instead, he stood still and waited quietly. After about a minute or two, the Scent-Seeking Bee flew out of the opening and landed in Ma Xingjue's hand, ceasing all movent.
Checking the ti on the Virtual Light Screen, Ma Xingjue had a rough estimate.
"One minute and forty seconds. The shelter is probably between fifty to eighty ters inside."
"This guy really knows how to pick a spot!"
With that thought, Ma Xingjue's heart grew even more fervent.
"I hope it won't disappoint !"
Now that he had confird the location of the Yu Yuan Shelter, he didn't plan to wait any longer.
Ma Xingjue was certain the target would never imagine that he had already found the shelter's location.
Now, all he had to do was hide well at the shelter entrance. The mont the target opened the shelter door would be his ti to strike.
He was quite proficient with this move.
Putting away the Scent-Seeking Bee, he began climbing up the ladder. Though eager in his heart, as a veteran player, Ma Xingjue's movents beca even more careful and cautious.
Inside the Yu Yuan Shelter.
Yu Yuan, looking at the surveillance screen, also frowned slightly.
What's going on?
Did the enemy teleport sowhere else again this ti?
His surveillance covered all the surrounding intersections, yet he still hadn't seen any trace of the enemy. This was becoming troubleso.
Just as he was feeling frustrated, a striking red ssage suddenly popped up on the Virtual Light Screen.
[Warning! Defense - Flathrower has been triggered and is conducting defensive attacks!]
What!
The Flathrower was triggered? But how is that possible?
Yu Yuan was shocked. But it wasn't just the Virtual Light Screen giving the alert; even the surveillance cara installed in the civil defense shelter level captured the two jets of scorching flas shooting out from the passage ahead.
Accompanying them was a scream of utter agony.
[Ding... Player ID: Star Duke Shelter has been confird dead. This invasion war has ended. Settlent evaluation in progress... Ratio of material consumption for both sides, casualty ratio for both sides, tactics of both sides......]

This...
Yu Yuan instantly understood what had happened.
But how did this Star Duke suddenly appear here?
Yu Yuan had been watching the surveillance the whole ti, especially the ladder exit area. He had been paying close attention and hadn't seen anyone at all.
Puzzled.
Yu Yuan left the shelter.
After deactivating the defense system.
A corpse was still burning in the passage. The entire corridor was filled with scorching heat and the pungent sll of burnt protein.
Yu Yuan took out a fire extinguisher and sprayed it at the still-burning corpse.
The flas quickly died out. After cooling down the corpse, Yu Yuan directly took a door fra with a lock from the Rabbit Ring, set it up beside the body, opened a passage to the Motel Main Guest Room, and dragged the corpse inside.
Ten minutes later, Yu Yuan looked at the pile of damaged items before him with a regretful expression.
"What a sha! Everything's burned!"
He was very curious about how Star Duke managed to find his location so silently.
Unfortunately, the power of the Flathrower was simply too great. Not everything could withstand 1200°C.
In the end, only a few items from the backpack remained sowhat intact.
A small bottle containing a tiny amount of pale yellow liquid, an alloy box, and finally, a tal military canteen.
And this was only because he had put out the fire promptly.
[Hundred Flowers Nectar]
Quality: Rare
Functions:
① Promotes the growth of all insect-type creatures. Has a certain probability of nurturing special individuals.
② After personally feeding Hundred Flowers Nectar to an insect, temporarily gain the ability for simple communication with the insect and enhance the insect's characteristics.
(Friendly Reminder: Each insect can consu at most one drop of Hundred Flowers Nectar per day.)
This is good stuff!
Unfortunately, the liquid left in the bottle was only about 1ml at most.
Even at a generous estimate, that's only about ten to twenty drops.
Yu Yuan then opened the alloy box.
Inside lay a dying bee. The mont the box was opened, the bee's body, which had been struggling slightly, imdiately stopped moving.
With a final twitch, it died!
But the Spirit Collector on Yu Yuan's wrist suddenly lit up.
The progress for collecting dispersed spirituality increased by about 1%.
This bee actually possessed spirituality. Although it hadn't reached the level of a low-level Spiritual Creature, it was close enough.
Its spirituality was significantly stronger than those failed experintal mutated animals from the Johnck Zoo back then. Perhaps with a bit more cultivation ti, it could have advanced to beco a true Spiritual Creature.
And he also saw the information for this bee.
[Scent-Seeking Bee] (Deceased)
Grade: Rock
Introduction: This is a special individual accidentally cultivated by a Beekeeper. It possesses exceptionally sharp olfactory senses. Under the Beekeeper's specialized cultivation, it has already acquired the ability to track scents.
Yu Yuan suddenly understood. No wonder Star Duke could find his location so quickly.
It seems it was because of this bee.
And that final military canteen was also no simple item.
[Baptized Military Canteen]
