"That's where the treasure is."
Chen Changxing pointed at a forest in front of them. The forest was not very big, only about four or five mu in size. With the vision of a cultivator, they could almost see through the forest at a glance.
"That's the treasure?
It doesn't look like anything special. "
Fei Peng frowned as he looked at the forest and asked, "Could it be that Zerg took all the treasure?"
"That's not the case. The treasure isn't above ground, it's underground."
Chen Changxing explained to everyone, "We were crossing this forest before and found a cave in the middle of the forest. Out of curiosity, we went in to take a look. Only then did we realize that there was a hidden treasure under the forest."
"Speaking of treasure, what's in there?"
Bai Feng's sharp eyes had already discovered the location of the cave Chen Changxing was talking about. "Such a conspicuous cave shouldn't have been discovered by you guys only now."
"We didn't go deep into the treasure. We only found some thousand-year-old herbs in the periphery. Just as we were about to go in deeper to investigate, Zerg appeared.
As for why no one else found this treasure, I also find it strange. "
When he first discovered the cave, Chen Changxing had joked that it might be the lair of some wild beast. He had never thought that such an exposed cave would actually hide a treasure trove.
"Look carefully at the plants in the forest."
At this moment, Ye Qing Ning frowned slightly and reminded everyone to be careful not to get too close to the forest.
After Ye Qing Ning's reminder, everyone carefully observed the bushes and trees in the forest. Soon, they found a large number of black beetles in every corner of the forest. These beetles were definitely not creatures that originally existed in the forest.
"This should be Zerg's detection method."
Ye Qing Ning guessed, "As soon as someone gets close to the forest, these beetles will immediately alert Zerg."
"If you didn't remind me, I wouldn't have noticed."
Qinchuan narrowed his eyes, "These Zerg are so cautious in placing so many beetles in the forest. Does it mean that they aren't strong enough, or are they doing something important that they can't be disturbed?"
"Qinchuan's guess makes sense."
Lü Zi glanced at Qinchuan and said, "I suspect that they are trying to stabilize the portal and allow more Zerg to teleport over."
"What's the reason?" Su Kuang looked at Lü Zi. "It can't be a groundless guess."
Lü Zi turned to look at Su Kuang and explained, "I remember clearly that other than the large Sacred Beetles, there were also dozens of humanoid Zerg that were teleported to this treasure land. If they had attacked together, we might not have had the chance to escape. However, they didn't attack and chose to let the Sacred Beetles attack us.
At that time, I only had time to escape, so I didn't think too much about it. Now that I think about it, those Zerg were clearly maintaining the stability of the portal, so they couldn't do anything! "
"Yes, Lü Zi is right!"
Chen Changxing also thought about it and immediately said to everyone, "Those Zerg were standing beside the portal and didn't move an inch. They only let the Sacred Beetles attack us. It's not that they didn't want to attack, but they couldn't!"
"So to say, perhaps the only enemy we need to face now is the Sacred Beetles?" Su Kuang deeply looked at Qinchuan and asked, "What do you think?"
Qinchuan looked at Su Kuang, then looked at Yaorao and asked, "Do you have any way to investigate the situation inside the cave?"
"We don't."
Yaorao shook her head and said, "We have Bai Feng who is good at collecting information. Bai Feng's eyesight is extraordinary, but he doesn't have the ability to see through things."
"Let me do it."
At this time, Lü Zi suddenly stood up and said to Qinchuan, "I am an illusion array master, so I am good at collecting information. This matter is most suitable for me."
"Are you sure you can do it?"
Yaorao looked at Lü Zi with distrustful eyes, "If you really have this ability, then how could you be chased by those Sacred Beetles?"
Lü Zi shot a glance at Yaorao and explained, "At that time, things happened suddenly, so I didn't have the chance to inscribe the array."
Qinchuan looked at Lü Zi and seriously asked, "Are you really confident?"
"Believe me."
Lü Zi looked at Qinchuan, "I won't take the risk with my life, and I also won't let you take the risk with me."
"Okay, then you do it."
Qinchuan finally decided to believe Lü Zi and let Lü Zi give it a try.
… …
In the verdant woods, countless black beetles were strolling in every corner of the woods. Whether it was the soil or the treetops, they didn't let go of anything.
Under the strict inspection of these beetles, a burst of white fog slowly floated into the woods from outside. Facing this white fog, the beetles didn't have any reaction, they were extremely calm.
Inside the fog, an illusory figure was slowly moving forward. Her feet didn't touch the ground, rather stepped on the white fog, as if she was floating. It could be said that this scene was extremely strange.
At a distant place, when everyone saw that the white fog had penetrated deep into the woods but didn't cause any abnormal movement of the beetles, their nervous mood also relaxed.
"Lü Zi is really a natural intelligence worker."
Ye Qingning sighed and said, "At that time in the arena, I didn't see any characteristic of her, but now it seems I underestimated her."
"Indeed."
Su Kuang nodded his head and agreed, "If I didn't see Lü Zi walking into that fog with my own eyes, then I also wouldn't be able to perceive the existence of someone inside this fog."
"This fog is mainly used to confuse those beetles with low intelligence. If facing an ordinary person, then the appearance of this fog will arouse their vigilance."
Qinchuan looked at the fog that was gradually disappearing into the woods, then said in a low voice, "If it is foggy weather, then Lü Zi will absolutely become the most frightening existence!"
"Hehe."
Yaorao sneered, "I have Tian Yi Fan in my hand, no matter if it is fog or heavy rain, with a wave of my hand, everything will disappear for me!"
Having heard what was said, Qinchuan shot a glance at Yaorao, "So your feather fan is called Tian Yi Fan, it sounds very good."
Wan She who was standing behind Yaorao looked at Qinchuan, then coldly said, "Tian Yi Fan is my Demon race's most valuable treasure, I advise you not to think about it, be careful not to get yourself into trouble!"
"Everyone quiet down a bit."
Bai Feng suddenly said, "That fog has already entered the cave, we had better be on full alert to guard against any accident."
Hearing Bai Feng's words, everyone looked towards the distant woods, and silently prayed that Lü Zi wouldn't have an accident.
