Chapter 23 - Confusion Trap

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Zhuo Bufan somewhat understood this logic. When he played games in the past, those big bosses would appear once a month, and he could only kill them twelve times a year.

This Six-Legged Beast was akin to such a Boss. Otherwise, if it could be seen everywhere, everyone would already have a Devil Piercing Spear.

Bringing Tripitaka’s Demon Crystal Zhuo Bufan back to his own territory, he did not even have time to enter the house to drink some water before he started crafting the Immovable Radiant King Armor.

Because of the demon crystal, the success rate was greatly increased. After the fusion was complete, it was immediately sent over via the postage.

This way, he would be able to familiarize himself with it and use it on the arena tomorrow. Taking advantage of the fact that the sun had not completely set yet, Zhuo Bufan decided to make another trip to the depths of the forest. He haf to figure out exactly what was inside.

He firmly believed that things that existed in the territory definitely did not exist for no reason.

But this time, Zhuo Bufan was even more careful. Furthermore, he constantly warned himself not to be attracted by strange sounds again, and he had to constantly pay attention to the danger around him.

With yesterday’s experience, Zhuo Bufan could be said to have gained quite a lot. Not only did he avoid the vines that wanted to attack him again, he also bore in mind that there was also a swamp that could eat people.

After circling around the location of the swamp, he roughly calculated that it was half the size of a basketball court. Furthermore, if there was a swamp here, it meant that there could exist a second or third one.

Zhuo Bufan found a place to sit down and opened the chat channel.

[Ten Thousand Races Battlefield World Channel]

Within the [Human Race Channel]…

[Zhuo Bufan: I came to the forest again today. I realized that the swamp here might be of great use.]

[Aika: What use?]

[Anasu: You went to the forest again… Aren’t you afraid of dying inside? By the time someone finds you, your corpse will stink.]

[Zhuo Bufan:…]

[Zhuo Bufan: I can still send you messages now, which means that I’m very good. Is Big Boss Song around?]

As soon as the message was sent, Song Chenxing replied with a question mark.

[Zhuo Bufan: It’s good that you’re here, Big Boss. I suddenly thought that if the territory’s gate opens, other races will definitely come and hurt us. Perhaps the vines and mud in the forest can be used by us.]

Zhuo Bufan’s words instantly caused a huge commotion in the channel. Almost all of the lurking humans in the channel exploded at this time.

Those who did not sign up to participate in the arena meant that after the 12 days, their territory gates would automatically open and they would have to bear the wrath of other races.

Only those who participated in the arena matches could stand a chance to reduce the opening time of the territory’s gate. It was not an impossibility to ensure it never opened.

[Song Chenxing: But the vines and the swamp are always in the depths of the forest. What should we do to ensure that the enemy can reach the depths of the forest?]

[Zhuo Bufan: This needs to be thought through carefully. But since there’s already a method to go against them, there’s no need to worry about it succeeding. I’ll send the coordinates of the vine swamp to everyone now. If you have time, go over to your area and take a look.]

Zhuo Bufan sent his coordinates into the channel and before continuing with his exploration.

If the human race could think of something, the other races might not be able to. Therefore, whether it was the vines or the swamp, they had to first put on a series of disguises to it. Only by doing so could they confuse others and achieve their ultimate goal.

After fiddling with it until the middle of the night, Zhuo Bufan felt that if he came here again tomorrow, even he might not be able to distinguish that the place was any different from empty flat ground.

In order to ensure that he did not shoot himself in the foot, he chose a position that only he knew and marked it. This way, regardless of whether the situation was within his control, he could lure the enemy into a trap.

After falling into the swamp, whether they lived or died depended on luck.

“We’re all living in the same place, so let’s not have evil intentions towards each other. Once the danger is over, I’ll water and fertilize you.”

In order to express his devotion, Zhuo Bufan kept gesturing the shape of a cross in front of him. At the same time, he also put his palms together and muttered.

Gu gu!

It was that strange voice again. Zhuo Bufan’s ears were abnormally sharp. Yesterday, he was almost killed by the vines because of this voice, and today, the voice came to tease him again. If he was tricked again, he would write the Zhuo character backwards.

“If you have the ability, then come out. Don’t play any tricks here. Don’t let me catch you, or I’ll turn you into a roasted pigeon!”

After returning yesterday, Zhuo Bufan had been thinking about a question in his mind the entire time. Just what kind of animal was that ‘gu gu gu’ sound coming from?

He finally remembered that it was pigeons that usually made this sort of noise!

However, would there be pigeons on the Ten Thousand Races Battlefield?

Gu gu!

The voice came again. Zhuo Bufan frowned slightly and chose to ignore it, preparing to return the way he came from to rest for the night.

He had just taken two steps when he saw the treetop above his head shake slightly. Zhuo Bufan waved the Ice Fire Magestaff in his hand in the next second.

In the blink of an eye, a snow-white avian beast landed on the ground. It looked like it had been hit by the small icicle and fell down.

“Good lad, you’re the one who played with me yesterday. I have eaten those who run on the ground and those who have jumped in the grass. To think that I would make a meal from one that flies in the skies tonight. This Ten Thousand Races Battlefield is treating me well.”

Zhuo Bufan said with interest. His footsteps slowly approached that avian beast bit by bit. Only when he got closer to take a look did he realize that this big bird had something special.

The snow-white feathers had no impurities at all. Its eyes were sharp and bright, and the claws were sharp and powerful.

From its appearance, it looked like a snow owl from the animal world.

Zhuo Bufan held the Ice Fire Magestaff and poked the ferocious bird’s body. He saw that fellow flap its wings twice in response, stirring up a cloud of dust on the ground.

The unguarded Zhuo Bufan coughed twice, trying to swat away the dust that was rising up.

“What are you? Are there any of your kind here?”

After saying that, Zhuo Bufan realized that the problem was serious. There was a language barrier between the both of them.

Looks like I’ll have to ask everyone for help!

[Ten Thousand Races Battlefield World Channel]

Within the [Human Race Channel]…

[Zhuo Bufan: Who knows what this is?]

[Aika: I don’t know. I’ve never seen it before. Ask someone else.]

[Anasu: It’s so cute and furry. It’s definitely suitable to be a pet.]

Zhuo Bufan was depressed. At any rate, these people came to the Ten Thousand Races Battlefield earlier than him, so how could they not have seen anything? Could it be that they were not curious about some strange things in this place?

Thinking up to here, Zhuo Bufan only hoped that Big Boss Song could come out to answer his doubts.

[Panda: I know this one. It’s a Snow Eagle. It can be used to send messages.]

Zhuo Bufan raised his head and carefully looked at the name in front of the message. This was the first time he saw this name.

[Zhuo Bufan: Thank you very much, but what does this thing eat and drink, and how’s its personality?]

[Panda: I don’t know about that. I’ve encountered it before, but I didn’t subdue it. It ran away. If you don’t want to raise it, you can set it free.]

It was impossible for him to release this beast. It was impossible for the beast to be released for the rest of his life. The things that were sent to him would definitely be kept in his pocket.

Closing the chat channel, Zhuo Bufan and Snow Eagle maintained a relatively safe distance.

“Little guy, what are you trying to do by attracting me here again and again?”

He only watched as Snow Eagle stood up, spread its wings and took off on the spot. However, it merely kept circling above Zhuo Bufan’s head..
