Tomb Raider: Evolution of the Red Dragon, Starting from the Ancient City of Jingjue

"Why don't we rest here for a while?"

Qin Feng simply found a tree to lean against, completely unwilling to continue walking.

Although the sun is not as scorching as before, the lingering heat still makes it easy to burn energy.

"Yeah, Jiang Hua, why don't we take a good rest? I really can't take it anymore. My physical strength is already poor, and now I have to keep going in this awful weather. It's going to kill me, Lao Wang."

Besides Lao Wang and Qin Feng, Chen Le and Yun also looked pained.

Jiang Hua glanced at the sun overhead, thought for a moment, and then nodded. Although he still had the energy to continue, they were a team, and Jiang Hua couldn't abandon them and go on alone.

"Let's find a shady spot and replenish our energy."

They arrived quickly, and perhaps because of the water, they didn't feel so hot anymore when they got to the stream. Qin Feng even jumped in to cool himself down.

Old Wang, unable to contain his excitement, followed Qin Feng's example and sat down in the stream.

"I remember there are some dangerous fish in this stream. You probably know what kind of fish they are, right?"

At this moment, Chen Le stepped forward and stared at the message for a long time before slowly turning his head to look at Lao Wang and Qin Feng.

Qin Feng and Lao Wang naturally thought of piranhas.

Upon thinking of piranhas, they immediately jumped out of the stream.

They seemed afraid that the next second their flesh would be targeted by piranhas.

Seeing their frightened expressions, Jiang Hua and Yun, who were sitting on the shore, burst into laughter.

Then Qin Feng and Lao Wang slowly realized that they had been tricked by Chen Le.

"If you had any common sense, you would know that there could be no piranhas in a small river like this."

Yun stepped forward and looked at Qin Feng and Lao Wang with a pained expression.

When Lao Wang and Qin Feng heard Yun say that, they also turned their heads and stared at Chen Le beside them.

However, when Chen Le saw the two of them staring at him, he quickly went to Jiang Hua's side for protection.

Suddenly, the three of them started chasing each other. Seeing this, Jiang Hua quietly left. They sat with Yun and let them play around on their own.

Having recovered considerably, they ate the food they had brought with them, and their overall mental state improved significantly.

With the sun not being as scorching as before, everyone suddenly felt they could walk another five kilometers.

After walking for a while, dusk fell, and everyone needed to find another place to rest.

At that moment, Chen Le took out a drone from his backpack.

"Let me find a suitable place for everyone to rest. After all, tonight's rest is crucial, and not getting a good rest will affect what happens later."

As Chen Le spoke, he operated his drone, which drew praise from Qin Feng and Lao Wang, who even wanted to reach out and try operating it themselves.

Chen Le could see through their thoughts, but he rejected them with just a glance.

Although Qin Feng and Lao Wang felt dissatisfied, they still stayed on the sidelines with a wronged expression.

"I also saw a group of people heading in the same direction as us, so it seems he also knows this route."

Yun took off her glasses, frowned, and looked at Jiang Hua and Qin Feng as they spoke. Hearing that there were other tomb raiders, Jiang Hua and Qin Feng, they immediately felt uneasy.

After all, having competitors undoubtedly increases the difficulty of their task.

"What if there are competitors? Are we supposed to kill them all?"

Qin Feng stood there for a long time before suddenly blurting out this sentence, which made Chen Le, Jiang Hua, and the others look at him helplessly.

I never expected that Qin Feng would have such a thought.

“I won’t stop you if you’re going to do that, but you have to make sure you distance yourself from us before you do it. I don’t want to end up in jail because of you.”

As Old Wang spoke, he kept a certain distance from Qin Feng, as if he wanted to draw a line between himself and Qin Feng right now.

"Why do you have to kill them? You're so crude that this is the only way you can think of. If it were me, I would just point them to another road and let them go somewhere else. The mountain roads here are winding and they don't know which road is the right one."

As Chen Le spoke, he touched his chin.

It seems they are thinking of a way to get these tomb raiders to leave their destination.

Seeing Chen Le deep in thought, Jiang Hua couldn't help but wonder what kind of solution this genius boy would come up with.

"I have an idea."

Chen Le put the drone away and handed his backpack to Jiang Hua.

"Doesn't my appearance make me look harmless? If I just appear in front of them like this, wouldn't that give me an innocent and pure image?"

After he finished speaking, everyone looked at Chen Le in front of them, and after thinking for a while, they all nodded in unison.

This indicates that Chen Le's image is indeed as he described, and at this moment, Chen Le also pulled Yun to his side.

“Then Yun and I will pretend to be local residents and point them to another road. We should be able to fool those stupid tomb raiders by looking like this.”

Hearing Chen Lecheng and his group of tomb raiders call them foolish tomb raiders, Jiang Hua couldn't help but chuckle, but still nodded.

After all, with Chen Le and Yun standing together, it was impossible to doubt whether one was being plotted against.

“They are a kilometer away from us. If we wait here, they will arrive very soon.”

Jiang Hua and Lao Wang and the others also cooperated by hiding to the side.

However, they still kept a certain distance from Chen Le and Yun to avoid the tomb raiders suddenly attacking them.

After all, neither Yun nor Chen Le are particularly strong in combat.

If these tomb raiders wanted to use force, Chen Le and Yun together wouldn't be a match for them.

Soon, the group of tomb raiders appeared in front of Chen Le and Yun.

Jiang Hua, Qin Feng, and the others silently watched the tomb raiders from a distance. These tomb raiders were quite strong, and it was clear from their appearance that they regularly went to the gym to improve their physical fitness.

These people were puzzled by Chen Le and Yun's united obstruction, but they didn't seem to have any major malice.

It seems they were somewhat deceived by Chen Le and Yun's appearance.

Jiang Hua stood by, constantly armed, fearing any unexpected events might occur, as these burly men could easily lift one of them with one hand. (End of Chapter)
