Chapter 1581 Turning The Tide 2
"Alright, stop guys. Fighting between ourselves is not helping. We need to think of a way to fight Tang Shaoyang together. Do you think he will really kill us one by one? From what you know about Tang Shaoyang's character, do you think he will do so?" Donis tried to mediate the situation.
Even though he agreed with Agnes and Ian, he could not corner Vitali even further.
"We don't know anything about Tang Shaoyang. He is a solo player. If he could solo the second stage, he would solo it. But the only thing I know is that he is ruthless. He would not let us get out alive from this trial for sure," Agnes was frustrated.
She wanted to stop all this shit, but she knew Tang Shaoyang would not listen to her even if she told the truth that she was forced to join this group. He only knew that she tried to kill him, and she must be ready to be killed as well.
Before they could plan anything to face Tang Shaoyang in this new circumstance, they heard a commotion from outside. Not long after the commotion, Bran's people entered the tent, "We have an emergency situation, Sir Bran. A party of four is killed."
Bran and Donis exchanged glances. The worst scenario truly happened. Tang Shaoyang had made his move, and they had no way of knowing where he would come from.
Bran, Donis, Vitali, Ian, and Agnes followed the man to the location. It was quite far from their tent, the outskirts of their camp. It was not just a simple ambush or assassination, but also intimidation.
The bodies were found in a single tree, four different bodies with no heads nailed on the tree. And the four different heads on the tree next to the tree with the bodies. The bodies and the heads were nailed on the black tree, the tree that appeared along with the domain.
Bran and Donis approached the tree with the four heads on it. They saw the four people's expressions before they died. It was a casual expression. They were not aware of how they died, meaning Tang Shaoyang killed them before any of them could detect Tang Shaoyang.
Bran let out a frustrated sigh and shook his head, "No! There's no mountain. That bastard creates a mountain in what? Five seconds? Three seconds? He changes the whole map. I don't know if he could manipulate the barrier as well."
He turned toward Ian and Agnes who knew more about the Absolute Domain, "Can he manipulate the barrier with his Absolute Domain?"
Agnes and Ian shook their heads as they did not know. The barrier was a different object. The barrier for the battle royal belonged to the system. They were unsure if it could be manipulated.
"We need to regroup with the others!" Donis felt like their chance was in their numbers. They might really have a chance if they stayed together with the others.
Before they moved, an earth wall rose in front of them. The wall did not try to confine them. It was five meters tall and ten meters long. Then two words appeared on the wall, it was big.
It said, "Don't bother!"
Tang Shaoyang heard their conversation and told them not to look at their group. Not trying to threaten them, but telling them how useless it was. Then the words on the wall changed.
It said, "If you are curious if I can manipulate barriers or not, then the answer is yes. I push the barrier further away. Welcome to the new arena, a much, much bigger battleground. So don't bother to look for your group, you will never be able to find them."
The five exchanged glances, realizing how this one skill turned the ideal situation into the worst situation. Donis and Bran regretted not listening to Vitali earlier. If they made a move on Tang Shaoyang before the Absolute Domain, then they would be separated like this.
"I can actually send you guys out of the barrier to disqualify all of you and win the trial. But that's too cheap for the price of killing four of my spirits. Stay there and enjoy the scenery because I will come for you. I am saving the best for the last!"
