“That’s right. Let’s return to the Allied Camp!” Hong’s expression turned serious.
“Returning to the Allied Camp won’t be easy,” Thunder God also rubbed his bald head, deep in thought.
Luo Feng nodded.
Now that they had obtained both the treasures and the Thunder Stones, they still needed to exchange the 9,080,000 Thunder Stones to realize their true value. Thunder Stones themselves were worthless; only after exchanging them for treasures could their true worth be revealed! Although the war had ended, various teams would still attack small groups with few members.
“It’s very unsafe for our four-man squad to head toward the Allied Camp,” Hong frowned. “Although the large factions have ceased hostilities now, having severely weakened each other, even a broken ship still has three nails. Those teams will definitely target small squads like ours. Given the ruthless behavior of the past one and a half months, they will attack without hesitation, easily sending a thousand-man unit to wipe us out.”
Luo Feng’s expression grew solemn.
A four-man squad?
Such a tiny group would not be spared by any of the major factions.
“The Allied Camp strictly prohibits killing,” Luo Feng said solemnly. “However, outside the Allied Camp, there is no such restriction. Therefore, we must be extremely cautious on our way there. Avoid any contact with other teams at all costs.”
“Understood.”
Hong and Thunder God both nodded.
“We should use the spaceship first,” Luo Feng contemplated. “We’ll fly by spaceship to the plains, then stow it away and proceed on foot.”
“I agree,” Hong nodded.
“I suggest we depart at night,” Thunder God added.
“Fine, we’ll leave tonight,” Luo Feng smiled.
…
Although he felt relieved, Luo Feng remained cautious.
Thanks to its detection system and its speed, which was thousands to tens of thousands of times faster than a peak-level Stellar warrior, the spaceship easily avoided other adventurer teams. Thus, Luo Feng and the others swiftly flew straight to the central plains.
“We’re now about ten thousand kilometers from the Allied Camp. From here on, we’ll have to fly,” Luo Feng said, withdrawing the spaceship into his spatial ring while looking at Hong and Thunder God. “Brother One, Brother Two, the spaceship’s scanner showed that although the distance to the Allied Camp is only ten thousand kilometers, there are several teams stationed along the way.”
Hong and Thunder God nodded.
After a month and a half of brutal fighting, many teams had been severely weakened and retreated to the core area to recover. However, if Luo Feng’s team passed by them, it would be like a dragon casually swallowing a tiger or leopard that happened to pass by its mouth. Once discovered by those large teams, Luo Feng’s small group would surely be annihilated!
After all…
Every surviving team had endured countless near-death experiences. Who doesn’t possess some treasures?
“Move out,” Luo Feng cautiously transmitted mentally.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Luo Feng, Hong, Thunder God, and Ao Gu, followed their planned route to avoid the teams stationed on the plains and head toward the central Allied Camp.
…
Ten thousand kilometers.
To Luo Feng and the others, it was a very short distance. If they accelerated to their maximum speed, even within the Domain of the Heavens, they could cover it in less than an hour. However, they moved cautiously, not daring to go too fast…
“19.6 kilometers ahead, there’s a patrolling thousand-man unit. We’re still 3,620 kilometers from the Allied Camp, so this patrol unit must belong to one of the major teams. We must detour around them,” Luo Feng glanced at the screen on his bracer, transmitting mentally to the other three.
Hong, Thunder God, and Ao Gu remained vigilant.
They were dancing on the edge of a blade. If discovered by any team, they would be in serious trouble.
“We’ve bypassed them. Let’s continue toward the Allied Camp.”
“Still 2,110 kilometers from the Allied Camp.”
“There’s a large team stationed ahead. Let’s detour.”
“Still 800 kilometers from the Allied Camp.”
…
Luo Feng and his companions moved with utmost caution. Under the cover of night, they flew low over the plains, occasionally detouring and sometimes accelerating. After nearly three hours, they finally saw the Allied Camp in the distance.
“Great!”
“We’ve finally reached the Allied Camp.”
Joy appeared on the faces of Luo Feng and his companions. These three hours had been nerve-wracking, as every team had patrols surrounding their camps. It wasn’t surprising that these teams were cautious; the past month and a half had seen extremely fierce and brutal warfare, with frequent ambushes and attacks.
Precisely because of the many patrols, Luo Feng and his team dared not relax at all.
“Phew, we made it,” Luo Feng exhaled in relief.
“Halt!”
A squad leader from the Allied Camp’s perimeter guard shouted loudly. Behind him stood a massive group of warriors, surrounded by over a thousand soldiers. The leader’s gaze swept over Luo Feng and his companions.
“We are under the command of Lord Mingyu of the Three-Axe Mountain,” Luo Feng called out.
“Oh.”
The leader glanced down at the screen on his smart visor. The records of these four individuals under Lord Mingyu of the Three-Axe Mountain were indeed present.
“Enter,” the leader coldly ordered.
Luo Feng and his companions flew directly into the Allied Camp. As the leader watched them depart, he gritted his teeth and muttered, “Scum from the Three-Axe Mountain! If I had met you outside the Allied Camp, I would have killed you all to avenge my fallen brothers, bastards! Bastards!”
…
As Luo Feng and his companions walked through the Allied Camp, the entire area was filled with a grim and deadly atmosphere. Many teams eyed each other with murderous intent.
“What’s going on?” Thunder God whispered. “The last time we came here, adventurers from different teams still addressed each other as brothers. But now, the killing intent is overwhelming.”
Luo Feng nodded.
As they walked through the Allied Camp, they rarely saw anyone smiling. Most adventurers wore cold expressions, and many had eyes filled with hatred.
“The last time we came to the camp, the leader of the perimeter guard still greeted us with a smile. But this time, the leader was very cold,” Luo Feng whispered. “It must be the result of the past month and a half of slaughter, which has claimed countless lives. Many of these adventurers were close friends or brothers, so naturally, they’re filled with hatred now.”
…
As Luo Feng and his companions entered the Allied Camp and headed toward the Three-Axe Mountain faction, they were unaware that someone had already noticed them.
“It’s them.”
“There’s one less than last time.”
“They’ve actually come back. Hurry and inform the master. These are the people personally marked by the prince.”
“Yes.”
Several figures within the Allied Camp gazed at Luo Feng and his companions from afar before one of them immediately turned and ran off to report to the bodyguards under the Ninth Prince’s command.
…
In the core area of the Black Dragon Mountain faction within the Allied Camp, inside a large tent.
Prince Buluo of the Black Dragon Mountain sat on a chair with his eyes closed and his brows furrowed, seemingly troubled.
“Your Highness,” a man rushed in and knelt on one knee.
“Katuoluo,” Buluo opened his eyes and looked down at the kneeling guard.
“Your Highness, our perimeter guards have spotted four individuals! They are four of the five people you personally ordered to be killed previously, who later escaped by spaceship,” the guard quickly reported. Previously, they had monitored Luo Feng and his companions until late at night before pursuing and attempting to kill them.
Therefore, they were very familiar with Luo Feng and his companions’ appearances and abilities. As soon as Luo Feng’s four-man team arrived, they immediately recognized them.
“Oh? Spaceship?” Buluo raised his eyebrows, revealing a hint of disdainful laughter. “I remember now!”
The past month and a half of slaughter had consumed much of Buluo’s energy as he directed his armies. Compared to the war, Luo Feng and his companions were trivial matters.
“Continue to monitor them,” Buluo coldly ordered.
“Yes.”
The guard respectfully complied.
…
Within the Three-Axe Mountain faction’s camp, teams under the command of Monarchs and Domain Lords of the Three-Axe Mountain organization gathered upon reaching the Allied Camp. Luo Feng and his companions entered this faction’s camp.
“Master, last time we were pursued and attacked by the Ninth Prince’s men. They must recognize us. Now that we’ve returned to the Allied Camp, their spies will surely discover us,” Ao Gu mentally transmitted.
“That’s right,” Luo Feng nodded.
Being recognized?
This had already been expected by Luo Feng. However, even if they were “recognized,” he still had to return to the Allied Camp.
“Even if I don’t exchange for treasures, I must safely leave the Domain of the Heavens and exit the Thunder World,” Luo Feng thought. “However, I suspect that at the exit of the Domain of the Heavens, there will be armies stationed. Small groups attempting to pass through will surely be ambushed.”
“Only by following the main force can I safely exit,” Luo Feng clearly understood this.
As for Buluo?
What was there to fear!
This time, after infiltrating the Three-Axe Mountain faction, before returning to Canglan Star, he had no intention of acting alone. He would always stay with the main force of the Three-Axe Mountain faction. When the main force set up camp, he would camp with them. When the main force departed from the Domain of the Heavens, he would leave along with them.
“I don’t believe that even Buluo would dare to act against me while I’m within the Three-Axe Mountain faction,” Luo Feng thought to himself. “Perhaps in Buluo’s eyes, I’m not even an important target.”
“Luofeng.”
“Luofeng.”
A voice broke Luo Feng from his thoughts. He looked up and saw a thin man accompanied by a muscular, silver-haired man approaching. The thin man smiled and said, “Luofeng, this is ‘Commander Bendi,’ the leader of the Second Battalion of our Three-Axe Mountain.”
Luo Feng was surprised, as the muscular, silver-haired man clearly exuded a much stronger aura than others.
“Commander Bendi,” Luo Feng quickly saluted, with Hong, Thunder God, and Ao Gu following suit.
Before arriving, they had learned from Babata’s reconnaissance that there were a total of about 480,000 people in the Allied Camp, including six Cosmic-level warriors. Obviously, the brutal war lasting over a month and a half had finally forced out six Cosmic-level warriors after consuming over a million peak-level Stellar elite soldiers.
Among them, the Three-Axe Mountain faction had two Cosmic warriors!
“Luofeng? Lord Mingyu mentioned you to me,” the silver-haired, muscular man smiled at Luo Feng and his companions.
