Chapter 542 Crazy
In the dense jungle, a group of twelve people walked through the thick forest, less than five meters apart, forming an oval formation. They were all very cautious, constantly observing their surroundings, and even deliberately keeping their footsteps down.

The leader seemed to sense something, raised his right hand, and the others stopped and waited quietly.

Two people, holding longbows, were perched in trees about fifty meters away from the group, either looking down or gazing into the distance to ensure the group's safety.

If there is any danger, they will immediately fire arrows as a warning.

The group worked together seamlessly, advancing quickly while maintaining their safety. Any monsters they encountered along the way were spotted in advance and avoided, preventing battles from easily breaking out.

"There was a battle ahead, three people died, two of whom seemed to be acquaintances."

A cold voice rang out, and then the void twisted, revealing a slender young man dressed in light armor.

The young man held a short sword, the blade pointing to the left.

"Which two unlucky guys were they?"

When someone asked, the gaunt young man remained silent, his figure flickered, and he disappeared from the spot once again.

The group moved forward, and a minute later, the pungent smell of blood filled the air. Soon, a gruesome scene came into view.

Amidst the withered weeds, some stones were charred black, clearly burned. Large trees had fallen, and there were obvious signs of a battle on the ground. Three charred corpses lay scattered on the ground, the flesh and entrails scattered everywhere making one want to vomit. Three hideous heads were suspended from tree branches by three ropes resembling fishhooks, five meters above the ground, swaying slightly in the wind.

Even in death, their bruised faces still bore the marks of twisted pain, and their empty eyes had been gouged out.

"Squeak."

Seven or eight small rodent-like monsters were gnawing on chunks of meat on the ground. Upon seeing the uninvited guests, they squeaked and fled quickly, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

"It's Lin Xin and Zhou Daguo."

Xie Yixiao looked at the three heads for a long time before finally saying two names.

He only recognized two people; the other person's face was smashed halfway by the blow, making him unrecognizable.

The weapons that could identify individuals have also disappeared and been taken away, making it even more impossible to guess.

"So cruel."

Xie Yixiao said, a hint of fear and hatred flashing in his eyes.

The two people he mentioned were indeed acquaintances, both professional Glory players, about six or seven years older than him. As seniors, they were stronger than him, but now they were dying so tragically here.

It is clear that these three people were subjected to inhuman torture before their deaths.

"He really is a beast; his methods are getting more and more perverse."

Zhao Zhou cursed, his face grim.

Unlike Xie Yixiao, he felt no fear, only anger.

Although he is a former professional player, he has been retired for many years and has not been without life-or-death experiences.

After retiring, in order to improve his strength, he worked as a mercenary, wandering through various spatial gates, where fighting and corpses were commonplace.

He had seen too many bloody scenes, but seeing such a horrific scene still made him frown.

Not only were they left without a complete corpse, but their bodies were also cut into pieces, devoured by monsters, their eyes gouged out, and even their heads were hung up as a warning and deterrent.

"He really is a beast!"

The others also looked furious, both shocked and enraged.

Having participated in the King's Plan and entered the Land of Fallen Gods, they were prepared to die, yet the scene before them was still chilling.

Even if one is not afraid of death, no one wants to be desecrated like this after death.

This was far more unacceptable to them than death.

What's more, these three people had endured agonizing torment before their deaths.

"More of the Extraordinary Ones died; seven died."

Seeing that his teammates were in a bad mood, Chen Junhao glanced around and said.

Those who can participate in the King's Achievement Program and obtain the qualification of trainees are all experts among the ninth rank, and even their assistants are quite powerful.

There are thirteen passages into the Land of Fallen Gods. Given the vast area, if the supernatural beings wanted to surround and kill them, they would have to send out ten or even dozens of times more people than the supernatural beings.

There are more powerful beings from the supernatural than humans, but not nearly as many, nor can they all come out in droves, and not every one of them can be a ninth-rank expert. Supernatural beings compensate for quality with quantity.

It's actually quite normal that more people from the Otherworld die than humans.

However, compared to those body parts, the alien's corpse appeared to be very intact.

Chen Junhao only glanced at the corpse and examined its wounds; he had no intention of torturing the corpse to vent his anger.

That's pointless and a waste of time and effort.

"It's all thanks to Lin Feng and his group that the superhumans are driven to such madness!"

A young man, not very tall but extremely muscular, holding a shield and a battle axe, spoke, his tone revealing dissatisfaction.

In his view, the Inhumans would never have been so ruthless without the Avengers' post.

Along the way, they saw many corpses, some of which were strangers, and some of whom were fellow trainees, but none of them were as bloody as this.

This is the price the Avengers paid for angering the Inhumans.

"Perhaps a little, but that would only add fuel to the fire. Entering the Land of Fallen Gods is a taboo for Inhumans. The Avengers aren't that powerful. If you're afraid, you can choose to give up."

A middle-aged man said this.

He obtained his student spot through the principle of "might makes right".

Joining Chen Junhao's team was simply for safety and companionship; there was no distinction of status. Having earned his spot through merit, he already held those who gained their spots through showmanship and popularity in contempt.

In his view, attributing the actions of the supernatural beings to Lin Feng and his group was merely an excuse for his own incompetence and fear.

Moreover, this is not the first time the other party has said this.

Seemingly sensing the middle-aged man's sarcasm, the burly young man glanced at him, his eyes icy cold.

He was about to speak when someone suddenly interrupted him.

"All right."

Sensing the subtle atmosphere in the group, Chen Junhao stepped between the two and stopped their verbal sparring.

Such empty talk is meaningless and will only cause the team to fall apart.

Such conflicts and verbal sparring occur every day, and more than once or twice a day.

If it weren't for the fact that they were in a dangerous environment and he was mediating, a fight would have definitely broken out.

As fellow students, their strengths were similar, and neither had the ability to surpass the other, so neither was willing to concede to the other.

Furthermore, given their already distant relationship, such teammates would clearly be unreliable should they face a large-scale encirclement or mortal danger.

He was a little tired.

He wasn't this tired when he was the captain of the Glory Alliance. At this moment, he even envied the Avengers.

It's not that I envy their achievements, but rather I envy their ability to unite so well.
As for the others, they are fine, since they are close in age and their strength is not much different.

But you have to know that as one of the top ten All-Stars, Ye Xing and Yun Tianqi are not easy people to get along with. With their strength and pride, how could they possibly get along with a group of college students?
He even stood obediently behind Lin Feng in public?

Even if Lin Feng is exceptionally talented, it shouldn't be this bad.

He was puzzled.

Although he was the temporary captain of the team, apart from his two assistants, the others were not his subordinates, but rather equals.

If his orders go against their interests, they will not hesitate to refuse them outright.

Chen Junhao couldn't understand what charm Lin Feng possessed, or what special abilities he had, that made Ye Xing and the other person so obedient and compliant.

If possible, he would like to learn from the experience.

"I wonder if Lin Feng and the others have started their operation yet? There's been no news from them," Xie Yixiao asked.

He could only remain silent when conflicts arose among the trainees.

Without equal strength, one has no voice, not even the right to offer advice.

He asked that question simply to change the subject.

Of course, I was also curious.

They set off four days ago, at a time that was neither too early nor too late. At that time, the Avengers had not yet taken action, and it is unknown whether they have taken action yet.

“They must have set off already, or it will be too late to come,” Zhao Zhou said.

Of the thirteen routes, they chose the seventh one.

The route first leaves the Shangjing Base City, then arrives at the Chenxi Satellite City, which is 500 kilometers away from the base city. After passing through the eight-star Earth Shadow Space Gate in the city, and going through five space gates, they enter the nine-star Far Peak Space Gate, intending to enter the Land of Fallen Gods from here.

This route is just right for their skill level and is relatively short, making it one of the best routes available.

Of course, there are also shorter and safer portals, but those portals are too low-level for them to enter.

"It's normal not to hear from them if they're not on the same route."

Chen Junhao was about to say something when a sharp, piercing sound came from behind him, and a jet-black arrow appeared before his eyes, which he caught firmly.

This is not an enemy attack, but a signal from teammates.

The signal that the enemy is coming.

"Quick victory, Tactic B."

Chen Junhao said, his expression revealing a hint of ferocity.

The arrows were aimed at him, indicating that the enemy was not strong and could be killed.

As he spoke, his bodybuilder-like physique visibly expanded rapidly.
They are not ordinary prey; in most cases, they become the hunters.

The moment the signal appeared, the other teammates remained silent and quickly entered their demonic transformation state.

"Seven."

Xie Yixiao transformed into an elf, his gaze coldly fixed on the charging enemy.

No one retreated, no one fled, and the battle quickly broke out. The sounds of clashing weapons and the roar of soul skills being unleashed echoed through the jungle.

Such battles take place every day on all thirteen routes, and people die every day.

Some are human, and some are otherworldly beings.

The death toll was rising every day, and the Avengers were never seen on any of these routes.

They chose a route that no one had ever chosen before.

They designed the route themselves.
