Chapter 710: Act!

After Jackdaw’s group, Bai Xiaofei had brief contact with the remaining two teams, but with a much more cordial result .

What truly surprised him was the resurrected leader, who was obviously on another level compared to the undead he had saved . Bai Xiaofei quickly realized from the brief communication how tough he was to deal with . Not to mention his strength, the fact that he could complete his resurrection spoke for itself .

After parting ways with the other two parties, Bai Xiaofei’s group stopped for a long rest and recovery, so long that everyone finally found themselves unable to sit still . If it weren’t for the old members sitting around Bai Xiaofei, someone would have made a fuss .

“Are you sure they will act first if we don’t move?” Ferret frowned in doubt .

According to Bai Xiaofei, they were waiting for any other party to test the waters, then act accordingly after having a rough idea of the demon king’s power . However, Ferret thought no one would be so foolish to volunteer themselves into trouble, so waiting was a waste of time .

“Don’t worry, curiosity can’t stand the test of time . I can’t be sure about that resurrected person, but the other two groups will definitely move . ” Bai Xiaofei revealed a crafty smile and looked confidently at Ferret . “So, we only have to wait . ”

“What about you? Aren’t you curious? What makes you think you can hold back your curiosity and they can’t?” Ferret asked, obviously trying to make it difficult for Bai Xiaofei .

“Very simple, because they are big names, while I am a nobody . I can sit here disregarding everything as I don’t care about the opinions of anyone in my group, but they can’t . ” Bai Xiaofei grinned and ignored Ferret’s manner . “They are used to sitting on their high horses and the fear of death has gradually faded from their subconscious mind, but I’m different . I am more afraid of death than anyone else . Compared to my life, curiosity is nothing important . ”

The explanation stupefied Ferret and extinguished his irritation . He had to admit that Bai Xiaofei was right . Not only Jackdaw or the others, but even Ferret himself also had this problem . Getting used to being a mighty expert would uncontrollably give birth to the pride in one’s heart . It was a good thing most of the time, but it could also blind the person .

After everyone’s doubts were answered, Bai Xiaofei’s group continued to wait . However, they didn’t have to wait for long .

The sounds and vibrations of fighting soon came from the distance . It was not hard to tell how fierce the battle was going . With one party opening the way, the rest quickly headed toward that direction . A mass battle between three parties turned the whole underground area into a slaughterhouse .

Every second that passed, a life disappeared…

“Should we go now?!” Ferret couldn’t sit still after less than five minutes . So were over 70% of the team, while the rest were those who were scared of death and did not intend to contribute at all .

“What’s the hurry? Have you heard of someone giving their all right at the start of a battle? They still have great potential!” Bai Xiaofei stopped Ferret .

Ferret was choked by anger, but in the end he sat back down with a cold snort . Wait, huh? I’ll see how long you can wait!

…

In the red-hot battlefield, everyone was facing a group of humanoid undead completely covered in black armor . Their injuries had no effect on their ability to act at all, and they would not leave behind a body when killed but became a black fog that drifted toward a certain spot .

Jie stood quietly beside his lord, watching the black fog constantly fusing into the latter’s body as he enjoyed it with his eyes closed .

That year, the demon king had used half of his energy to summon these undead creatures in order to prevent this energy from being sealed . To weaken the seal, the remaining half of his energy had nearly been exhausted . As long as the energy from the undead returned to his body, it would be only a split second before he broke free from his shackles!

“Congratulations to my Lord, the bait has caught the big fish . Right after you regain your energy and eat them, at least 80% of your strength will be recovered . At that time, this continent will surely be your plaything!” Jie congratulated the demon king, his voice brimming with joy .

“Don’t worry, you will get not a single thing less of what I have promised you . When I devour all the creatures on this continent, we will kill our way back . Whatever that ‘lord god’ thing is, it will be trash!” The demon king sneered .

“Anything you say, my Lord!” Jie got down on one knee . He had been waiting for this moment for several hundred years . For hundreds of years, he had been in this undead state . If it weren’t for the searing hatred that kept him going, he would have destroyed himself a long time ago .

Their conversation was unheard by anyone . Everyone thought that slaying the undead was weakening the strength of the demon king, even Bai Xiaofei was no exception .

“Alright, we’re going!” commanded Bai Xiaofei upon seeing the intensity of the fighting gradually weaken .

The group of five hundred bored people immediately rushed out . They had found many storage bracelets on the skeletons and gathered plenty of precious items . Now they only needed to get out of here to make a fortune . Therefore, there was no one who was not serious about this battle!

The road was unexpectedly smooth . Since they had waited for quite a long time, almost all the undead had poured into the battle, while the ones who approached were all quickly blown into black fog . In this way, they advanced straight to the heart of the crypt .

Realizing that their group was a huge threat, the undead hurriedly flocked over . Unfortunately for them, Jackdaw and the other parties took this as a retreat . Their confidence was boosted and they stepped up their game to stop the undead in place .

“Jie! Take this . Stop them using any way you must!” The demon king felt a great crisis from the approach of Bai Xiaofei’s group . After throwing a blood-red ball to Jie, he accelerated the absorption of the black fog .

It was now a race to see who was faster!
