Chapter 710 Part 2: Meiron Wilderness
From MC's perspective:
Meiron Wilderness,
"Damn it," Theo cursed in his heart. The worst-case scenario happened. He doesn't want to fight the 2 or more groups. It will risk his chance of getting exposed.
Suddenly, he thought of something.
He turned towards the leader Phill and said to him, "Phill, did you know the sand crossroads? Which is a little distance away from here."
Phill solemnly nodded his head.
"Okay, take everyone to that place. We will meet there shortly," Theo said.
"Are you going to take down everyone alone?" May asked out of concern. Everyone can tell what Theo is going to do.
"You are taking this risk every time," April added in a solemn tone.
Everyone is thinking that Theo is risking his life for them. On the other hand, I sneered inside. This guy wants to use his full strength to eliminate them.
"Alright, let's leave," Phill said.
Hearing that everyone started following from behind. Right after, Theo stayed on the spot and waited for the hostile groups to arrive.
A few minutes later,
A conflict broke out. Theo used his level-5 strength to slaughter the level-4 adventurer team in a blink of an eye.
He didn't leave those single rogue wizards alive after that.
Several minutes later,
Seeing that no one is following this route anymore. Theo decided to leave. On the way, he couldn't help but think of the secret place.
"I don't know what Ronnie and others are planning," A cold glint flashes in his eyes.
20 minutes later,
We reached the crossroads without any hurdles. The route is now divided into three different directions.
While the team is anxiously waiting for Theo. I was patient with calm and serene expressions.
"Vincent, you should act if there is any danger next time," The leader Phill said out loud all of a sudden.
Hearing that my mouth twitched. I'm aware that everyone has silently agreed to kill me. But still, they are trying hard to pretend.
"Don't worry leader, I'll do my best," I replied in a calm tone.
Hearing that Phill nodded. But May and April looked at each other.
"He is strangely quiet. He doesn't know what is going to befall him?" April said to her.
"Ssshh, quiet. He might hear you," May answered in a panicked tone.
Hank, who was standing beside them, closed his eyes. Now everyone is waiting for Theo to return.
Shortly after,
Theo came to the place. Seeing that everyone was surprised. Because he was unusually fast in his killing this time.
"Did you make sure to kill everyone," April uttered.
"Ha...Ha...Ha..."
"They are amateurs. They don't know how to use poison at all," Theo said with a laugh. When he noticed Vincent was here.
A quick gleam flashes in his eyes. Which confirms he didn't suspect anything yet.
"Theo, what next?" Phill asked.
Hearing that Theo shifted attention back to his plan. Ronnie was not far away from here. Now it's time to complete the last hurdle before making everyone a scapegoat for his plan.
"Alright guys, this time our trip is going to be fruitful," After saying that Theo brought a fake map outside.
Then he stretches the map to show the terrain of this place.
"Here, see the red crossed area. I heard this place is filled with Grade-3 and Grade-4 herbs," Theo said to them.
He mentioned Grade 4 to attract everyone's attention. So that everyone can participate. If he had uttered level 5, they would have given up right away.
"Is it real?" Phill asked. He was wondering all this time. What is he up to? Now that he has shown the map. He can guess why he wants to use the newcomer.
"Cannon fodder," Phill said in his heart. Not only he, but others also recognized the fact.
On the other hand, I kept a clueless face.
Theo noticed everyone's reaction. This is the crucial point. As long as everyone reaches that place. Even if they want to leave, it's going to be difficult then.
"Alright, you guys should leave," Theo said.
"What about you?" Phill asked.
Theo handed over the map to him before saying, "I'm going to see whether anyone is following us again. I don't want that place to be known."
"Interesting!" I said in my heart. Finally, this guy has revealed his plan. A curiosity piqued in my heart. I was hoping to look for the rare relics.
If this map is true then I might come across one. At the same, I can also make that place a burial place for everyone.
Then the leader got the map and started leading us towards the new special location. We followed the path in the left direction and started following the area marked on the map.
When everyone disappeared from the site. Theo immediately contacted Ronnie and told them what happened. Ronnie, who was waiting for Theo to appear, was surprised.
Both teams are different. Ronnie's team members won't believe him seriously. So he decided to go with them. Later, he would think of something to make them cannon fodder.
When Theo heard that Ronnie was going together with them. He becomes suspicious. He is afraid things might not go according to his place.
The next second, his eyes gleamed with a twinkle. He knows Ronnie's place is not far away from here. He decides to follow them from behind.
Meanwhile,
The spy has decided to do a solo investigation. He left the mansion and arrived at the wilderness entrance area a few minutes later.
All the spies have fake IDs. He too got one for himself. After getting the pass and the information, he sent away the bribed officer.
Surprisingly, the spy is going to use the 2nd entrance instead of the 1st one. Like others, he is also afraid of using the 1st entrance.
The wizards from the right faction recognize each other. They would observe the unknown wizards using that entrance.
As he uses artifacts to disguise his strength, he is careful not to expose himself as well.
