Chapter 13 Misunderstanding?

As Sanzi spoke, he casually kicked the nearby large wooden cart. The firewood piled on the cart scattered all over the ground, revealing several cyan giant wolf corpses underneath. The woman was initially furious, but the cyan giant wolves had clearly left a deep impression on her, so her eyes immediately revealed an expression of disbelief. It was as if she had been slapped hard across the face, and she had no choice but to shut her mouth.

The man holding the wolf's-tooth club hesitated for a moment. He was clearly a man of the world, skilled in dealing with people, and immediately laughed:

"If that's the case, then it's a misunderstanding. With the enemy at hand, we have to be careful. Sorry for the disturbance."

The matter should have ended there, but the woman suddenly screamed again:

"Make them leave the wood and stones behind! Our teammates earned it with their blood! They must have been watching from afar when we were attacked, waiting for us to be weakened before jumping out to reap the benefits! These scum should be kicked out of our Dark Alliance, unworthy of being one of us!"

Hearing the woman's words, not only did the man holding the wolf's-tooth club become hesitant, but even the surrounding people began to look at Fang Senyan and his group with strange eyes. Zi suddenly stepped forward, looked at the woman intently, and said calmly:

"I just want to tell you one thing."

The woman holding the silver longbow said fearlessly:

"What? It's too late to beg for mercy now."

In Zi's eyes, two extremely sharp rays of light suddenly burst forth. Everyone who saw the light in her eyes felt very uncomfortable, as if an extremely thin and sharp needle was about to pierce deeply into their minds, and that needle was still constantly rotating and twisting, completely irresistible.

Immediately afterward, Zi's eyes turned into draconic vertical pupils. This was not unfamiliar to Fang Senyan and Reef, but an even more bizarre thing happened: double pupils appeared in Zi's eyes!

Seeing this, Fang Senyan immediately realized that Zi had also entered the ranks of the Crucible at some point. Her mutated limb was her eyes!

The woman suddenly let out a shrill scream, and even began to flee the scene rapidly, but under Zi's lock, the cackling laughter of the Sith Devil resounded throughout the entire area, and then echoed in the valley.

The woman's throat seemed to be grabbed by an invisible giant hand, slowly lifting her feet off the ground and suspending her in the air, constantly kicking, but unable to break free at all. Her face had already turned purple, but Zi said coldly:

"Killing you is just a blink of an eye. Do I need to resort to reaping the benefits?"

The rough man holding the wolf's-tooth club suddenly smelled something was wrong and immediately shouted:

"Don't!"

However, just as he shouted, the woman's head exploded with a *pala* sound, the red and white matter splattering everywhere, just like a rotten watermelon that had been smashed to pieces. After the headless body fell to the ground, it actually maintained its balance for a few seconds, gesticulating as if it wanted to walk, but finally fell to the ground with a thud.

Reef and Fang Senyan had already rushed out to stand in front of Zi. Ronnie had already hidden in the darkness at some point, and was clearly prepared for battle. Reef looked at the wide-eyed, angry man and said calmly:

"Do you want to start a full-scale war with us?"

"You...you actually killed someone!" the man roared. However, those behind him didn't seem very eager to respond.

The man looked pleadingly at the two teams watching from the sidelines, and said earnestly:

"Everyone saw it, these people are arrogant and despotic. Perhaps Halina's words were a bit rash, hey, hey, hey...!"

The people nearby, seeing that there was no good show to watch, had long since turned and left. For an unrelated woman - the point being that she was already dead - to fall out with a team, and this team, although small, had an astonishingly strong MT and might even have more than one Crucible powerhouse! In this era when most people were Awakeners, how crazy would you have to be to stand up and play the villain?

Reef looked at the wolf's-tooth club-wielding man, who was now in a bit of a bind. He was still a relatively decent person and offered a way out:

"Sir, you're blocking our cart's path. Please move aside."

The man could only step aside. From his expression, it was clear that he wanted to rush up and fight the entire team single-handedly, but it seemed that reason still prevailed, and he sullenly made way. After taking action, Zi had been wearing a cold face, looking quite unhappy. When Fang Senyan went over to ask, he found out that although the Space had not explicitly prohibited infighting, it had still set up traps inside. Zi had just been warned by the Space for killing someone from an allied faction, and all her attribute points had been temporarily reduced by 5 points, to be restored after twenty-four hours. Naturally, it took a lot of coaxing to calm her down.

Zi's resolute action also brought tangible benefits to Fang Senyan and his group. Seeing them coming, one team voluntarily retreated, giving up the best stone-collecting location. Fang Senyan and his group took it without hesitation, and the orc slaves and orc laborers began to work like ants, burning stones, felling trees, and continuing to manufacture crude giant wooden-wheeled carts according to Fang Senyan's instructions. Since this was Fang Senyan's closing work for the day, he naturally wanted to bring back a little more.

As dusk fell, only Fang Senyan's team remained in the entire valley. Looking at the four giant wooden-wheeled carts that were already piled full, Reef couldn't help but worry:

"Boss, we should probably leave, right? The team that ambushed us last time only lost four people. If we calculate the time, they should be back for revenge. We're not afraid, but we can't stand up to so many people..."

Fang Senyan smiled and said:

"From their perspective, they shouldn't come at this time, because the main course of the war hasn't started yet. The ultimate victory isn't about killing the most contractors, but about breaking through the enemy's city. It's definitely not wise to gnaw on a tough bone at the very beginning of a war, because the benefits of squeezing a few soft persimmons are definitely much greater than that, and it's also safe and sound."

"Of course, I'm not pinning my life on the probability that the enemy might not come." Saying this, a cold light flashed in Fang Senyan's eyes and disappeared, then he smiled:

"But even if there are many people, am I afraid? I just learned a little trick to deal with group battles recently."

*

Fang Senyan's little trick might not be a small trick, but his judgment was quite accurate after all. Until the collected stones and wood had filled a full six giant wooden-wheeled carts, the group did not encounter an attack, but instead waited for reinforcements - and official reinforcements at that.

About five hundred orcish warriors arrived, holding aloft torches made of thick firewood soaked in turpentine, burning fiercely and continuously, even in the rain. Among these orcish warriors, the proportion of strong orc officers was very high, all carrying sophisticated bows and crossbows, and they also brought thousands of orcish laborers and slaves.

Under the efforts of these guys, sturdy watchtowers were quickly repaired. Most of the orcs had night vision capabilities, and within a couple of hours, the entire stone and wood production area in the Rosanaki Valley was controlled by the orcish army.

"Did they realize the importance of resource production areas?" Reef pondered, watching the busy army. "Then are we still going to work at night?"

Fang Senyan denied it outright:

"Of course not. You can imagine that it will definitely be very lively here after dark. Those guys will definitely not miss the opportunity to farm contribution points. Since most of the attention here will be drawn, then the chances of the camp being harassed will naturally be smaller. Let's transport this batch of stuff back and then go to sleep."

Ronnie was originally an assassin, and immediately said with some frustration:

"But, this..."

Fang Senyan looked at Ronnie and said:

"I know your lethality in the dark, but we are a team, not fighting alone. Apart from you, none of us are good at fighting at night, so the team's combat power will be greatly reduced, and it would be too risky to let you fight here alone. More importantly, since they are setting up a garrison here, it means that the Dark Side has plans to stay here permanently. If there really is a big advantage to be gained, then we can come back tomorrow. If everything is on track, then there will always be less chaos."

Ronnie always listened to Fang Senyan's words, because he had personally seen on the Ironblood Planet back then that those who didn't listen had all been buried on that planet.

The next thorny issue facing the group was also very realistic: how to get the giant wooden-wheeled carts, fully loaded with stones and wood, back to the camp. As a result, on this matter, Mr. Kulueteguo, who had been secretly kept as a trump card, displayed his new power - a dozen or so earth elementals, temporarily given life by him, crawled up from the ground, pushing the wooden-wheeled carts diligently and dutifully.

At this time, Kulueteguo's appearance was that of a mysterious man wearing a yellow, full-body robe. As long as he didn't engage in direct melee combat, he could always maintain this image of a top-tier earth mage - even Ronnie could see the embarrassing situation that enemies might face after being deceived by this disguise: after finally rushing in front of the opponent, they would find that what should have been a lamb to the slaughter had suddenly turned into a gigantic, primordial beast with two heads and one eye... what a desperate feeling that must be!
