TOP SECRET: Adventures in the Dark Continent

Chapter 230: Deceived



Chapter 230: Deceived

Slash!!!! Slash!!!! Slash!!!!

Clang!!!! Clang!!!! Clang!!!!

"Cut at the joint spots, those are the weak points." A burly man dressed in steel armor screamed. He had a long steel sword and a huge shield.

In front of him were a few crystal creatures. The creatures look like crystal dolls of many different forms, people, and animals. Each was the size of a large adult, whether human or animal, depending on the type of creature.

"Roger !!!" The newbies shouted. They were attacking at random, but no attack worked.

The crystal bodies are very hard and the weapons cannot scratch. The only weakness of the crystal dolls is the joint, these places are the weakest in the body of the crystal dolls.

After breaking the joint, the dolls' bodies will break.

Clang !!!! Clang !!! Clang !!!

"Fuck!!!"

But it is not so easy to cut the joint of the crystal dolls. They can also defend themselves against attacks.

Besides, the levels of everyone in the place was below 200, some were even at levels 100. Because of that, the damage of the attacks is quite weak and they cannot even scratch the joint of the dolls.

"I will run ahead. Miners, you will follow me as soon as you can. If you do not succeed, you will die" The burly man group. He prepared to move forward and leave others behind.

This is the goal of the veterans, they want to leave the mercenaries and the weakest behind as bait to lure the crystal creatures as they flee. Veterans need to take some miners with them because they only have a few with them, they need more miners to get more money at the end of the job.

"Charge!!!!" The burly man shouted with the shield in one hand and the sword in the other. He looked like an unstoppable battle tank as he ran in a straight line.

The crystal creatures were pushed aside and a path was opened.

"Let's run!!!" Veterans were the first to run, mercenaries, and miners.

The newbies were left behind in despair. They don't know what to do. The only thing they know is that they were deceived by the veterans.

Some were already prepared for this situation and started running after the veterans in an attempt to take advantage of the path opened by them.

The weakest only had a chance to survive if they ran towards the veterans. Otherwise, they will be killed by the crystal creatures.

Clang !!! Clang !!!

The newbies, who were battling the crystal creatures felt the pressure build up a lot. The creatures begin to focus on them.

"Garett, I'm sorry about that, but I need to survive!!" Hunt shouted an apologetic tone to Liu Yang. He didn't want to die in that place, he needed to get to the city alive to be able to mine the crystals to try to get money.

"This is not a problem" Liu Yang was not bothered by this. He felt it would happen eventually.

Veterans will not want to share the money with newbies. This is sure to happen.

Liu Yang was already prepared for this scenario.

Hunt ran with all his power towards the group of veterans. He didn't want to be late and be killed.

(This is something expected to happen Only an idiot would believe that veterans will help newbies without any second intention) Liu Yang had realized that something was wrong when the veterans separated everyone into small groups and each went in a different direction. 

The veterans did this to decrease the number of newbies and use them as bait. They will be left to die halfway, while the others will move on.

"I do not want to die!!!! Acceleration!!!!" The body of one of the newbie shone brightly, he stopped attacking one of the creatures and started running towards the veterans.

It was not just him, but many others. Within seconds, about eighty percent of the group abandoned the fight and ran towards the veterans to try to survive.

The rest were very busy with the crystal creatures after being surrounded.

"What is the plan??!! If we do nothing, we will be killed!!" Someone shouted.

The rest of the newbies were surrounded by about a hundred crystal creatures. There was no way out and the only thing they could do is fight to open the way.

"What are we to do? You are the only one here who is calm." A young woman appeared beside Liu Yang and whispered. She saw how calm Liu Yang was in the face of this desperate situation.

For someone to be able to remain indifferent in this situation. That person needs to have a lot of confidence to survive or he is a big idiot.

The young woman had a great experience on the battlefield. From her experience, she felt that Liu Yang was the first type, a person with enough confidence to leave the place alive.

"Why are you asking me that?" Liu Yang was surprised by the young woman's sudden appearance. He didn't understand why she thought he had methods to get out of the place alive.

"You seem to be very confident about this. During the trip so far, you have always shown an indifferent face to the situation. You show that you have great confidence in dealing with this situation" The young woman replied. She noticed Liu Yang during the trip from Crystal City to the crystal mines.

During fights against the creatures halfway up to now, Liu Yang has done the least amount of action possible to avoid attracting the attention of others. But that did not prevent him from being discovered by others.

The veterans didn't care about the newbies, so they didn't have time to worry about Liu Yang or what he was doing. Thus, he managed to hide his power.

"I think you are a little mistaken. I am not confident about dealing with this issue. I'm just calm because I need to stay calm, otherwise, I could die" Liu Yang continued to refuse that he is strong enough to survive.

"Besides, you also seem confident of surviving. Why don't you run away too?" Liu Yang also realized that the young woman was too calm for such a desperate situation.

Many other newbies were screaming in despair and fighting for their lives. In the small group of newbies, there are people like Liu Yang and the young woman, calm people in the face of this horrible situation.

"..." The young woman did not comment on Liu Yang's words. She just looked away and attacked with her rapier.

Slash!!!

The rapier cut through the joints of a crystal lion's head, but that was not enough to defeat the creature. Even without the head, the crystal lion continued to attack as if it had eyes. It always hits where the girl was standing.

(This is really very problematic ... I tried to look a little weaker than the others, the tactic worked against the veterans, but it attracted the attention of other people ...) Liu Yang thought despondently.
