Chapter 88: Chapter 88
By the time Du You descended, he had already wiped out two nests, and there were over forty Wing Dragon eggs in his bag.
The speed of his harvest has been exceptionally fast. Soon, he would be able to gather plenty and depart. The dinosaur world is decent enough, but it’s not suitable for him to develop his skills. It would be better to leave sooner rather than later.
Moreover, too many people have entered here and Du You does not wish to deal with so many people.
The more people there are, the easier it would be to expose his abilities.
"You’re doing quite well." With one experience under his belt, the second time was much easier.
The Cursed Crow King would release the curse as usual, attracting a large number of Wing Dragons. Then, under Du You’s guidance, the density of these Wing Dragons was controlled to the maximum, after which Lan Tian would unleash a broad-scale spell.
Each time, it was such a spell; a wide-ranging freeze that brought down the Wing Dragons. These Wing Dragons were not birds and hence their flying abilities were rather poor. Otherwise, such a feat wouldn’t be easy.
As Du You marveled at Lan Tian’s magic, Lan Tian was equally in awe of Du You’s Summoned Creatures.
"Your crow isn’t bad either. This type of curse aura is much more useful against a large area of enemies than my Ice Fog. My Ice Fog is merely a restraint against these flying creatures."
Both of them exchanged a glance and laughed a little. Each other were no pushovers. Du You didn’t believe that a spell with such a wide-range of attack was all Lan Tian had. Moreover, it’s not easy to acquire a wide-range spell at this level.
They were not Spellcasters like him, whose skills were basically reliant on themselves and unlikely to come out explosively.
Mages’ skills were different; some were learned and some were burst from killing other Mages and Magic-type creatures.
The two ceased their conversation and continued working together. As Du You planned to return after this, he didn’t have any other thoughts other than keeping the Wing Dragons distracted for his own ends.
A large number of Wing Dragons were drawn to them, knocked down, and then slaughtered. Even if the harvest was small, by killing in larger numbers, there would still be something harvested.
Slowly, almost everyone’s pocket was nearly filled. One of Du You’s pockets was already full and even after excluding the resources, the other pocket held many eggs too. He was almost at his goal.
Maybe this time, thought Du You as he crawled towards a bird’s nest, preparing to continue gathering.
However, just as he had reached the nest, a wave of danger suddenly overcame him. "What’s going on? Are there Wing Dragons nearby that haven’t been killed?" Du You mused.
Almost simultaneously, he leaped to the side. The next moment, Du You felt a chill run down his spine as a dagger grazed him, leaving a cut in its wake.
From the Void, a figure— a rogue from his team— revealed itself.
This bastard, actually attacking him at this moment, sent a surge of fiery anger through Du You. As Du You watched the rogue snatch his bag and tried to flee, he instantly realized his intention.
Equipment cannot be stolen because they’re useless once stolen. However, this bag was different, it was rented and not considered proper equipment. Moreover, the Wing Dragon eggs inside didn’t count; they could be directly seized. If you snatch a bag, it’s equivalent to snatching the earnings of a hundred Wing Dragon eggs. No wonder this rogue dared to take such a risk.
Du You’s anger boiled and without hesitation, he pointed at the fleeing figure. A crystal-clear, transparent light flew out. No one could discern Du You’s action due to the swift situation.
However, the Disintegration Spell’s power was unmistakably demonstrated.
The rogue was instantly disintegrated into several pieces by Du You’s spell, falling towards the ground.
It was then that people finally noticed the change over here. "What happened? How did someone die just now?"
"It was Wukong, he was the one that attacked." Someone had finally seen the spell Du You unleashed.
"How could he do such a thing? Even if he is the temporary team leader, it is excessive," someone who heard the explanation started to vehemently denounce him. ɪꜰ ʏᴏᴜ ᴡᴀɴᴛ ᴛᴏ ʀᴇᴀᴅ ᴍᴏʀᴇ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs, ᴘʟᴇᴀsᴇ ᴠɪsɪᴛ 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵⟡𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮⟡𝓷𝓮𝓽
Du You’s face darkened, were these people distorting the facts? Didn’t they see that it was the bastard who attacked him first?
Without exchanging words with them, Du You casually took his spatial pocket and took the rogue’s as well. These were his spoils of war. How could Du You possibly give them up?
"Hey, you’re going too far. You kill one of us in front of us and then seize the spoils of war." All other things would disappear, but this pocket and the dinosaur eggs wouldn’t, they weren’t their equipment.
Du You coldly retorted, "Didn’t you see, it was this bastard that attacked me first."
"I saw it. It was the rogue who attacked first." There was finally someone willing to tell the truth.
Only, this person continued, "but that person just attacked, it wasn’t fatal, and the poison on the dagger was just a mild paralyzing one. He just wanted to rob you."
"Yes, he just wanted to rob you, but you killed him. That’s too much."
Du You didn’t expect to hear such a reason. These people are really nauseating. They were about to fill their pockets and have no need for him, right? ’He just wanted to rob you’ so he should not have been resisted, according to who’s rules. In Du You’s mind, why would he let such a person threatening him live?
More importantly, not injuring him equals not wanting to kill him? What a joke, he felt the danger earlier. The dagger attacked where it was lethal.
That high above the ground, if he was seriously injured and fell from there, he probably wouldn’t survive.
Numerous people kept speaking and it seemed like they had reached some kind of consensus. Du You realized that perhaps they had formed an alliance earlier. After all, they were originally different teams and he was the only solo one.
"You are too much. He just wanted to control us by force. Everyone, don’t believe his lies. We must firmly resist such a person." Eventually, someone managed to organize quite a number of people.
Feeling a bit weary, Du You realized that he wasn’t cut out to organize so many people. In just a short period of time, someone already attempted to seize his authority. Du You could see that someone probably saw this large crowd and wanted to organize them. He was only a stumbling block to them.
