Chapter 2026 - 1538: A Big Fat Sheep!

Qin Fang believed that as long as he had enough time, he could even map out the entire maze...If it really came to that, this maze would pose no threat to Qin Fang, and he could even pinpoint the locations of traps and mechanisms within it.

Of course, Qin Fang had no interest in doing something that would benefit future generations... Those who could make it to Devil's Island were not innocent; they were almost all villains from the Underground World.

Qin Fang felt no obligation to consider these people; in fact, he would be happy to see as many of them die as possible!

"This path is doable..."

Qin Fang's efforts were not in vain. After spending nearly half an hour, he managed to connect the path they were following with the path he took on this maze's map...

This meant that Qin Fang could now pursue the American Modified Human, whose whereabouts were already unknown at the moment.

"A rare herb and a Luminous Pearl... Opportunities like this are quite rare! Especially since there's been no sign of a third person along the way..."

Having found the path, the smile on Qin Fang's face grew brighter, and he quickly pursued along this route.

During Qin Fang's previous pathfinding, he hadn't encountered a third person, indicating that there were no other trialists in this area for the time being.

There was no helping it; the mountain's size was quite large, so the maze within its belly was also enormous. With only nineteen trialists scattered throughout the maze, it's understandable that they wouldn't cross paths often.

However, such non-encounters weren't inevitable; the trialists were surely constantly searching for treasures or Luminous Pearls.

The chances of running into each other while moving were relatively high...

After all, as traps and mechanisms were disarmed by experts, reducing the danger, the competition for treasures and Luminous Pearls would become fiercer, inevitably leading to chaotic battles upon encounters.

Just like that American Modified Human, Qin Fang didn't know if he had already fought someone for the herb and Luminous Pearl...

At least in getting the Crouching Tiger Grass, Qin Fang had a fierce conflict with A-San from India, but Qin Fang was more skilled and managed to outwit A-San without a direct fight, effortlessly seizing the Crouching Tiger Grass...

As for that A-San from India, he naturally became an unfortunate loser!

If Qin Fang could do this, others surely could too, perhaps even more ruthlessly...

"It seems this American's strength is quite formidable..."

However, after Qin Fang followed the path the Modified Human had taken, he couldn't help but mutter because all the traps and mechanisms along the way had been triggered, yet they didn't seem to have harmed the Modified Human...

Of course, Qin Fang didn't find any blood or bodies along the path but did discover a place similar to where Crouching Tiger Grass grew.

Clearly, this was likely the location where the rare herb the Modified Human obtained grew...

"No, I need to hurry up!"

Qin Fang hadn't found any other notable locations, like where a Luminous Pearl might be hidden, but by now, he couldn't see the Modified Human's location anymore, making Qin Fang a bit anxious.

Earlier, he had thoroughly explored the area he traversed in search of the path but didn't encounter a third person.

Meanwhile, the direction the American took was the opposite of Qin Fang's; there were no people in this direction, so the chances of encountering someone in the other direction were significantly higher.

"Two items... I can't just let someone else benefit from them for nothing!"

Precisely because of this, Qin Fang grew even more anxious... After all, it was not easy to find such a Fat Sheep, and yet it might be snatched by someone else; that would make him feel like spitting blood!

"Dammit, not this bad luck..."

However, the more you fear something, the more likely it is to happen.

The American Modified Human cleared the path for Qin Fang, allowing Qin Fang to go full speed in pursuit, but after nearly an hour, when Qin Fang once again spotted the American, he also found traces of a third person.

And coincidentally, the Modified Human and the third person were moving toward each other. Based on Qin Fang's understanding of the map, they were going to collide in just a minute or two.

But Qin Fang would need at least three to five minutes to catch up with the American Modified Human...

Of course, by then, it wouldn't matter.

Even if Qin Fang caught up with the American, the third trialist would immediately encounter both him and the American.

"Looks like I'll have to play the 'mantis stalks the cicada' game again..."

After hesitating for a moment, Qin Fang decided to slow down and let these two trialists fight it out first. Once they both suffered, Qin Fang would jump in and pick up the spoils!

Not long ago, Qin Fang had just scored big by picking up a bargain; of course, he hoped he could snag another one...

But will it really be like that?

Two minutes passed quickly, and the two trialists soon met...

"Oh crap... this is ridiculous!"

However, the outcome of the encounter between the two trialists made Qin Fang feel an urge to cough up blood!

Why did Qin Fang feel this way?

"These two guys are actually together... unbelievable!"

Although Qin Fang didn't approach directly, he checked the two trialists' movements on the mini-map and was shocked to find that after their encounter, they instantly unified under the same banner.

This alignment made Qin Fang want to spit blood and immediately realize that these two were on the same team... Instead of fighting, they had actually formed a small alliance! (To be continued.
