Chapter 64
Qin Han had never believed a word the other said. Now that they'd reached the destination, the other's usefulness had run its course. Suppressing his thoughts, Qin Han feigned nonchalance and said, "Alright, go ahead. I'll wait here."
Ma Xing was overjoyed—this guy was so easy to fool! Just a few words had been enough to deceive him. Once he got close to the High Priest's guards, he'd be safe. Not only that, but with his father's status, he could even send guards to bring men back and settle the score!!!
The mere thought made Ma Xing tremble with excitement, his grin unstoppable. Before leaving, he even kindly reminded, "Bro, you better be careful here. Don’t let those guards spot you. Don’t worry, I’ll be back soon—won’t take long." Just wait till I get someone to kill you.
Qin Han remained calm. "Got it. You be careful too."
"Then I’m off."
Ma Xing smiled, taking a step forward but glancing back repeatedly as he moved. As he neared the High Priest's guards, his whole body shook with relief.
I’m safe! I’m finally safe!
Escaping death—this feeling is incredible!
But at that very moment— Suddenly— He turned his head one last time to check.
And what he saw shattered his soul!!!
In the dense forest outside the gold mine, the instant Ma Xing looked back, he saw an arrow flying straight toward him.
He wanted to dodge, but it was already too late.
In his widening pupils, the arrow grew larger and larger— Then— Thud!
Darkness swallowed his vision, and his world fell into silence.
Thump!
His corpse collapsed into the thick grass, vanishing without a trace, unnoticed by the guards at the mine entrance.
From the bushes— "You have killed a Level 20 resident of Thunder Poison Island. Experience Points +1900."
Qin Han’s gaze was icy.
These natives were different from monsters.
Unlike monsters, though they provided Experience Points, they were fundamentally real people.
The only difference was that they lacked the functions of players—they couldn’t level up by killing monsters.
They weren’t even NPCs.
Most NPCs at least knew something about the game’s inner workings, but these natives didn’t even know about the existence of the game or players.
In all of Thunder Poison Island, perhaps only the High Priest and a select few were aware of the game’s nature.
To someone like Ma Xing, Qin Han was probably just a foreigner who’d stumbled into this place by accident.
Still, even though he’d killed a man, in the world of the Game of Eternal Life, bloodshed was the norm. The death of a minor character didn’t even ripple the surface of his heart.
Right now, his focus was entirely on the thirty-plus guards outside the mine as he pondered his infiltration strategy.
Thunder Poison Island was a Level 20 dungeon, meaning these guards were likely around Level 20.
Equipped with armor and bows, even at the same level, they were far stronger than Ma Xing.
And unlike monsters, humans were organized. With combat skills like evasion, tactics, and stealth, fighting them head-on would be troublesome.
Moreover, a single misstep could trigger a chain reaction.
If he started a fight here, the entire Thunder Poison Island would mobilize.
Reinforcements would pour in endlessly.
Unless he could kill or subdue everyone on Thunder Poison Island, a head-on confrontation would be the most foolish approach. Dragging himself into a prolonged battle would consume an immense amount of time, even if he ultimately emerged victorious. By then, the Captain Token would have long vanished!
After a brief moment of contemplation, Qin Han quickly devised a plan. He summoned Nightmare and whispered a few words into its ear. The intelligent beast immediately understood and dashed away.
Half an hour later, the ground suddenly trembled violently, and the roars of countless monsters echoed through the area. A three-zhang-tall pangolin, massive as a small hill, twisted its enormous body and charged straight toward the guards' defensive position. Several crocodiles, each nearly ten meters long, followed closely behind.
In an instant, the area outside the mine was overrun with monsters. The thirty-plus guards were thrown into chaos.
"Damn it, a monster rampage! Hurry and help—don’t let them break into the mine! If the High Priest blames us, we’ll be in deep trouble!"
