Chapter 133

What is Lin Yifan's purpose?

Of course, it's to slaughter!

The machete in his hand swung out mercilessly, directly chopping at the nearest elf.

"Squeak!"

That elf had no time to react before being struck by Lin Yifan's blade, screaming as he fell to the ground.

Seeing this, the other elves panicked.

They all tried to retreat, but Lin Yifan's speed was too fast; they had no chance to escape.

Lin Yifan was like a tiger among sheep, his machete whirling in an impenetrable blur, each strike precisely aimed at the elves' vital points.

In just a few seconds, Lin Yifan had felled all those elves to the ground.

After the battle, Lin Yifan panted heavily, standing amid the elves' corpses littering the ground.

"You, you human, you dare kill our elf warriors; our elf tribe will never let you go..."

Lin Yifan did not kill all the elves; he left one alive for questioning.

To prevent this elf from escaping, he deliberately chopped off its wings and broke its legs, ensuring it had absolutely no ability to flee.

These elves' voices all sound similar; Lin Yifan can't tell them apart, so he doesn't know whether the elf he kept alive is the same one that spoke earlier.

But during his fight with this group of elves, he vaguely sensed that the other elves were protecting this one.

That's why he chose to keep this one alive as a captive.

"Cut the nonsense, answer honestly—where is your tribe?" Lin Yifan stepped on Fan Xi Er's chest and said coldly:

"I know you understand human speech; answer my questions obediently, or your companions will share your fate."

Fan Xi Er has a pair of green compound eyes; hearing Lin Yifan's words, he instantly trembled in fear, raising his head and squeaking.

"I, I won't tell you where my tribe is, but don't blame me for not warning you—our elf tribe has 10,000 members, with warriors nearing 2,000."

"This squad is merely stationed here to guard the elf fruit; dare to slaughter us, and our elf warriors will never let you go."

"Too much talk!" Lin Yifan frowned; he hadn't gotten the answer he wanted, but he did learn a bit about the elf tribe.

Only a mere 10,000 tribespeople?

It seems this is just a near-extinct alien race; you should know, Keluositin's merfolk tribe originally had millions!

Even the merfolk people slaughtered because of him numbered fifty or sixty thousand, let alone the fact that humans themselves have seventy or eighty billion people,

Even if they suffered losses in the last heavenly disaster, humans still have three to five billion left.

A mere pitiful tribe of ten thousand, with zero melee capability, Lin Yifan sees nothing to fear!

Moreover, after carefully observing his surroundings, besides these few so-called elves, there should be no other elf overlords.

Because that feeling of being watched has already disappeared!

So as long as he silences this remaining elf, at least in the short term, the elf tribe won't come after him.

However, Lin Yifan is not someone who likes to be passive and take hits; he still wants to first find out exactly where the elf tribe is.

Lin Yifan doesn't want to waste words or time; he directly stepped on one of Fan Xi Er's fingers and ground it hard.

"Squeak!"

Instantly, Fan Xi Er let out a piercing scream, his pupils trembling.

Lin Yifan slowly lifted his foot and said coldly:

"Answer my question—where is your elf tribe?"

"I'll ask you this question ten times; each time you refuse, I'll crush one of your fingers, and after losing it, I'll give you a quick death."

"Now you still have nine fingers; I'll count to three—if you don't answer, we move to the next finger!"

"Three!"

"Two!"

"One!"

"Good!"

Lin Yifan without hesitation crushed Fan Xi Er's next finger with his foot!

As a fellow human, slaughtering many may still weigh on him a little.

But looking at these so-called elves before him, with their fly-like compound eyes, Lin Yifan feels not a shred of pity.

Because he clearly realizes this thing is not human; though he doesn't know if it's truly an elf, he can be certain it is absolutely not of his own kind.

So even if he knows his current interrogation can be called utterly cruel,

he feels no psychological burden at all!

Because for non-our kind, their hearts must be different!

Fan Xi Er's gaze toward Lin Yifan is filled with deep fear.

He originally wanted to rely on his race to intimidate this human into letting him go.

But now it seems he's just daydreaming!

"Still not speaking?"

"Alright, third time!"

Lin Yifan's tone was utterly indifferent; his foot pressed toward Fan Xi Er's finger.

"No!" Fan Xi Er finally couldn't hold back, screaming wildly:

"Stop torturing me, I'll talk! I'll say everything!"

"Actually, our elf tribe isn't even in this area; we're just here to clear the instance."

"You're here to clear the instance? Is this place an instance?" Lin Yifan frowned, looking around in disbelief.

He clearly remembers he got here by running on his own two legs all the way.

They didn't use an instance transfer scroll, so how could this place possibly be an instance?

But after thinking about it carefully, it seems not impossible!

Because the environment here is really too strange; the ecological environment here is not at all like an ordinary forest, but rather more like a corrupted forest.

But when Lin Yifan went to the Water Pool earlier, it was daytime; although there was also fog then, the visibility during the day was still a few hundred meters.

Although the details couldn't be seen clearly, a rough idea of the terrain and environment could still be made out.

Lin Yifan remembers clearly that from the Water Pool to entering this strange forest, he spent only about forty minutes in total.

They say 'the mountain looks close but far away'!

In such a dense forest, even if Lin Yifan's speed could reach 50 km/h, he could at most run thirty or forty kilometers.

What's more, starting from the Water Pool, he could feel that he had been continually walking uphill.

Indeed, behind the Water Pool is a mountain range; given such a short distance, from the pond he should at least be able to make out some difference here.

But Li Yifan remembers clearly that the entire mountain range behind the Water Pool is just jungle, yet there is absolutely no such huge tree!

Could it be that he unintentionally entered a new instance?
