Chapter 245

Since we can't win head-on, we'll rely on strategy!

Lin Yifan doesn't care whether a sneak attack is shameful; when dealing with enemies, any means are fair.

After the three of them arrived at the position, they used what they carried to set up a few simple traps, then hid silently in the dark.

Setting traps wasn't meant to kill the enemy; their supplies were limited, and they weren't skilled at trap-laying.

They did this solely to delay the target's speed and distract their attention.

The appearance of the Golden Resource Point quickly drew everyone's gaze; all Survivors who came near, as well as any unintentionally involved foreign races, all headed this way.

Actually, Lin Yifan still doesn't understand; clearly, Aireliya and the Vice Captain of the Silver Dragon Knight Corps said that foreign races are forbidden from entering the resource battle in his territory, or they will surely die.

But now, the Dark Elf Hunters have entered, and as far as we can see, they are completely unaffected, and we don't know what method they used.

However, no matter what, these Hunters come with ill intent; they must all be dealt with.

Soon, Survivors began arriving one after another, but Lin Yifan's trio stayed hidden whenever they were human Survivors; they were waiting only for the Hunters.

After waiting over half an hour, the Hunters still hadn't shown up, and the three of them were starting to feel uneasy.

Ruan Qingtian shifted his posture slightly, speaking anxiously:

"Captain, why aren't those guys coming yet? They won't not show up, will they? If they keep not coming, the Golden Resource Point will have nothing to do with us."

Lin Yifan also frowned; he wasn't concerned about the resources, but the appearance of the Golden Resource Point couldn't possibly be just to supply many Survivors—there must be another purpose.

He actually wanted to go scout it out; even if he learned nothing, with so many human Survivors there, they could discuss it together.

Although the chat channel can also be used for chatting, after all there is no offline meeting, everyone will be on guard, many especially secret messages will be kept hidden.

But if we meet offline, it's different; some things are much easier to say!

But his primary goal is still to first deal with the hunters of the dark elf race; however, if we keep wasting time here and ultimately fail to meet the target, that would truly be all for nothing.

So after hesitating for a moment, he then spoke:

"Wait another five minutes; if those guys still haven't come, we'll go straight to the support point."

"Okay, I'll follow the captain's orders!" Ruan Qingdan immediately nodded in agreement, and Hong Shaoqiang had no objections at all.

When acting with the three of them, he usually doesn't speak much; anyway, whatever task is assigned to him, he just does it.

This is also one of the reasons Lin Yifan feels at ease with him.

After another five minutes, the dark elf hunters still hadn't appeared, but the number of survivors rushing over kept increasing.

Lin Yifan even saw an acquaintance among them.

No, he couldn't even be called an acquaintance!

This person was precisely the "Father of God" who had previously clashed with Lin Yifan; Lin Yifan had seen a copy of his Maggot Human Bone before, so they had also met offline, and thus he remembered his appearance.

Lin Yifan originally thought that someone who had a conflict with him would certainly not heed his advice and would rashly come to participate in this volunteer competition.

But he never expected that this guy would actually show up!

Lin Yifan glanced at him twice and then paid no further attention; although they had past grudges, it was merely a verbal spat, not rising to the point of shouting and fighting.

Of course, at first Lin Yifan was so angry he wanted his life, but now his anger has faded, so he doesn't feel that heavy sorrow anymore!

After a moment, the reason environment still hadn't waited for the dark elf hunters, so he simply stood up and said:

"Don't wait any longer; these guys still haven't shown up—either they're not coming, or they took another route and already went to the 'Golden Resource Point.' Continuing to wait would just be wasting time!"

"Could it be that they know we're ambushing them and dare not come?" Hong Shaoqiang frowned, full of worry, spoke.

"Never mind all that! Let's first go to the support point and see." Ruan Qingdan's attitude was good; he adjusted the bow on his back and spoke with high spirits.

"Anyway, with the captain here, plus me and Hong Ge cooperating, we'll kill whatever hunters come—just kill them!"

"That's correct." Lin Yifan nodded, turned his head toward the Golden Resource Point still glowing with golden attention, and said in a low voice:

"But you also need to be careful; if I'm not mistaken, the reason this Golden Resource Point appears is probably to provoke us into killing each other."

"Why would the Survival Realm do this?" Ruan Qingdan furrowed his brows, full of confusion, asked.

"According to our earlier speculation, the Survival Realm's biggest enemy should be the Red Moon, right? We survivors are also one of its weapons against the Red Moon; it shouldn't be letting more survivors survive, should it!"

"Maybe our speculation is wrong." Lin Yifan lightly sighed, said helplessly.

"And even if we aren't wrong, the weapon the Survival Realm wants is a powerful weapon, not those weak ants."

"So this resource competition is actually an elimination round, weeding out unqualified survivors and making the talented, strong survivors even stronger!"

"That also makes sense." Ruan Qingdan suddenly said somewhat nervously.

"Then let's stop talking nonsense and hurry to visit the Golden Resource Point; I don't want to become discarded trash!"

The three of them didn't linger, sprinting quickly toward the direction of the Golden Support Point.

And on the way, he also encountered many survivors.

Everyone was extremely anxious, afraid of being a step behind others!

However, when Lin Yifan and his group reached the vicinity of the "Golden Resource Point," a golden cover appeared, enveloping a huge golden box.

That box is truly enormous!

Its width is over ten meters, its height is as tall as a three-story building; if it were truly filled with supplies, this amount of material would drive anyone crazy.

,

But up to now, no one can approach that box; all are blocked outside by the golden light shield.

However, directly above the golden light shield, a string of numbers is constantly flashing.

"This is... a countdown?" Ruan Qingdan beside him exclaimed in shock.

"Exactly! It's a countdown." A middle-aged man with a square face laughed and said.

"Just now when I arrived, it showed ten minutes; three minutes have already passed, and in a few more minutes this resource box will be able to open!"

Lin Yifan looked at that middle-aged man, raised his eyebrows, and said:

"Father of God?"
