Chapter 707
The friendship between Lin Ye and Leng Shuang was truly rare and very precious.
In this dangerous Eerie game filled with death, having a trustworthy companion is truly great!
Nakiri Erina sighed.
She also wanted that,
besides out of survival considerations, it was also a longing for that sincere emotion.
The masked host listened to the changing words of those players and kept sneering in his heart.
These players were all selfish and self-interested, very realistic, but their wishes were destined to fall through. It was impossible for Lin Ye to find the ingredients; not a chance.
There wasn't much time left until the deadline.
The masked host hoped this time would pass faster.
"Could he be thinking of running away!"
"That should be impossible. Old players all know that you can't leave here without completing the task, unless you have special items."
But as of now, until the moment the project's stipulated time ends, even if players know they are going to fail, they won't use items now.
Therefore, Lin Ye must still be desperately searching for ingredients.
"Go all out!"
"Work hard!"
"But in the end, you will find that all your efforts have no meaning at all; you are destined to meet only failure."
The masked host slowly let out a breath.
And time returns to a few minutes ago.
After Lin Ye and Leng Shuang left, upon confirming that no one was following them, Lin Ye stopped his pace.
"Now you can tell me the method!"
Leng Shuang guessed that Lin Ye had left the gathering place on purpose.
"It's very simple. We'll go directly to get our red fruits and red vegetables."
"Where?"
Lin Ye pointed in a direction.
Leng Shuang was startled, but soon thought of something.
"They..."
"Yes."
Lin Ye nodded, "The organizers have already collected the relevant ingredients while we were heading into the dense forest to search."
"Damn it."
Leng Shuang was indignant.
She really hadn't expected the organizers to target them to this extent, even going so far as to commit the vile act of taking all the red-related plant ingredients and hiding them.
This clearly meant they wanted them dead!
If Lin Ye hadn't seen through it, they would probably have searched for ten days and ten nights and still not found the relevant ingredients.
"How do we sneak back? There should be staff guarding that side, right!"
"Also very simple."
Lin Ye reached out his hand toward Leng Shuang.
Leng Shuang didn't hesitate and placed her hand in Lin Ye's.
After a while,
Leng Shuang saw her hand become transparent.
No, not just her hand became transparent; even her body and clothes became transparent as well. Her whole person had entered a transparent state.
"Invisibility."
Lin Ye has an invisibility skill!
Leng Shuang was astonished.
If this skill is used well, it's a god-tier skill!
At the very least, it facilitates hiding and sneak attacks; used properly, it can completely achieve great results.
"Just go in like this. Let's go!"
Lin Ye let go.
The two gradually exited the invisible state.
Circling around,
Lin Ye and Leng Shuang entered the rear area of the gathering place one after another.
There were other staff members guarding here.
But facing the invisible Lin Ye and Leng Shuang, the staff didn't notice them at all.
Lin Ye was relieved.
If the staff had reacted and sensed their presence, he would have immediately used Time Stop to get away.
And the storage place for the red ingredients,
it had now been covered up.
But for Lin Ye, this was not a problem at all.
Under his X-ray vision, that cover, which hadn't undergone any special treatment, had absolutely no effect.
Lin Ye had long since locked onto it and brought Leng Shuang to successfully arrive at its side.
"So many."
Looking at the various types of red ingredients, Leng Shuang gritted her teeth.
She looked at this blood-red expanse, and the anger in her heart grew even more intense.
Such a large quantity and variety of red ingredients—they hadn't found a single one; it turned out they had all been collected and hidden by the organizers.
Good.
Very good.
This grudge,
she would remember it. If there was a chance, she would definitely take ruthless revenge.
"Let's go!"
Leng Shuang took ten red tomatoes.
The requirement was ten;
taking ten was enough.
"Not enough. We'll take them all, using the players' storage slots."
Leng Shuang really wanted to say there was no need for this,
but since Lin Ye had said so, she didn't refuse.
The two took all two hundred or so red ingredients of various types stored here, not leaving a single one behind.
……
Five minutes left until the end,
and a few more groups returned. They had also found the corresponding ingredients.
A few people were in a sorry state, covered in mud and with wounds on their bodies; clearly, they had been injured.
But fortunately, they had brought back the ingredients and completed the task.
"So thrilling, almost died."
"Is Brother Zero still first this time? He should be the first player to submit ingredients again, right!"
"Brother Zero, where is Brother Zero!"
……
Someone replied, "Zero hasn't found the ingredients yet; he's still searching outside. Now it seems he probably won't make it in time."
"Ah!"
Shock.
The newly returned players all showed surprised expressions.
"How is that possible? How could Brother Zero not have returned yet!"
After all, in the hearts of some players, Lin Ye not taking first place was the only thing that would be confusing.
