Survival Game: Call Me an Honest Businessman

Li Zhi is the closest coordinate to the Emerald Heart, aside from the hyena beastmen in the swamp.

She turned back without hesitation.

Her speed of 23.5 made her one of the fastest moving coordinates on the map.

The hyena beastmen have returned to normal and are now searching for the Emerald Heart in the swamp.

The hyena-like beastmen who led the group saw Li Zhi first.

The arrow came hurtling through the wind.

Li Zhi neither dodged nor avoided, rushing towards a towering tree beside the swamp.

[The protective shield has been activated. Countdown begins: 9:59]

The arrow fell three meters away from Li Zhi.

The hyena-like beastman, instead of being angry, was delighted: "In the tree!"

The other hyena orcs immediately scrambled out of the swamp.

The hyena-orcs shooting arrows didn't stop either, moving and chasing after the enemy while continuously firing arrows.

Li Zhichong rushed toward the big tree and grabbed at one of its leaves.

Another group of hyena-like orcs, who had been hiding, burst out of the forest.

Block and intercept from all directions.

Li Zhi plucked a green leaf, waved it at the hyena-men, and flashed a set of white teeth: "This leaf is pretty. I picked it to take back and use as a bookmark. You're stealing my leaf, so you also love reading?"

The lead hyena orc realized he'd been tricked, his grey face turning red with anger, but he didn't panic. Instead, he immediately changed tactics: "No need for an ambush! Team 2, continue searching down below; Team 1, search the surrounding area!"

This swamp is not very large.

The Emerald Heart on the map appears as a green jade stone that completely covers the swamp, so it is impossible to pinpoint its exact location. You can only explore the swamp and its surroundings.

Relying on his protective shield and ability to fly, Li Zhi found a tree with a good view and stood there, planning to rob whoever found him.

The leading hyena beastman saw through her thoughts and threatened, "Your item must have a time limit. If you dare to steal our Emerald Heart, once the time is up, my Dongqi Hyena Clan will fight you to the death."

Li Zhi: "Then swear an oath to the heavens, no, to the heavens, and sign a contract with me, clearly stating in black and white that your Dongqi Hyena clan will always be my good friends and will never hunt me down or hurt me."

The lead hyena-like beastman said coldly, "You're dreaming!"

Li Zhi: "Look at you, you're in such a hurry again."

As she spoke, she took a half step back and disappeared behind the dense foliage.

The next second, a tiger-clan orc rushed into the swamp.

Apart from the hyena orcs in the swamp, the other hyena orcs quickly gathered together.

They looked warily at the tiger-clan orcs.

The lead hyena orc warned, "Ashi, we've already taken over this place. You'd better go find another Emerald Heart."

The tiger-like orcs, known as Ashi, are physically strong and at least twice the size of hyena orcs.

She casually surveyed the swamp and said lazily, "All of you come at me together. Whoever wins keeps this place."

The hyena-orc's face turned ashen: "Don't think that just because your mother is the leader of the Beast Alliance, I won't dare kill you!"

Ashi's aura shifted, and a murderous intent flashed in her eyes: "Everyone who said that to me has become my food. Hedong, do you want to die too?"

Just as the hyena-orc Herdon was about to speak, another series of rapid footsteps approached.

She and Yashi both looked in the direction from which the sound came.

A group of fox-type beastmen.

The fox-fox orcs stopped in their tracks the moment they saw the tiger and hyena forces locked in a standoff.

The leading fox-clan beastman said, "I didn't expect to see the two of you here. If you both want the Emerald Heart, then our fox clan has no chance of winning. We'll be leaving now."

Without hesitation, she turned and left with the rest of the fox-clan beastmen.

Li Zhi also discovered the three people she had robbed herself among them.

—I'm not even dressed yet.

Yaxi and Hedong seemed unsurprised by the fox clan's pragmatic approach and confronted each other again.

The hyena beastmen continued their search in the swamp.

The atmosphere grew increasingly tense as time went on.

Li Zhi's breathing was also not as steady as before.

Her levitation was about to expire after only two minutes.

Once she lands, the hyena orcs and fox orcs are very likely to join forces to suppress her.

However, waiting for the hyena orcs to find the Emerald Heart and then for the tiger orcs and hyena orcs to fight each other, and then reaping the benefits, carries a high risk.

It's unclear whether anyone else will come after that.

The longer it takes, the more people will come, and the greater the pressure she will face.

The best solution is for her to find the Emerald Heart and leave quietly.

But Li Zhi had already scanned the area from the sky and found no trace of the Jade Heart.

There are too many trees around the swamp. If the Emerald Heart is really here, it would take a huge amount of time to find it among so many leaves.

Needless to say, the swamp is even more dangerous. These hyena-like beastmen have searched it countless times, and they haven't seen anyone showing any unusual expression.

Li Zhi hid further back.

A "click" sound, which only she could hear, was heard.

Five virtual cards that only she could see appeared before her eyes.

[Treasure Hunt (One-Time Talent)] [Duplicate Card] [Sleeping Potion] [Telescope] [Duplicate Card]

Li Zhi was overjoyed and immediately took all of them, then checked the information about the one-time talent treasure hunt.

[Treasure Hunt: Automatically finds treasures within a 500M radius and displays the route]

Li Zhi vowed that from now on, Luck would be her favorite card, without a doubt!

She wants to make 100 copies!

Li Zhi activates the treasure hunt.

The world before her eyes blurred for a moment.

The next second, a red arrow appeared in front of Li Zhi's eyes.

The arrow transformed into a red dotted line, swimming across the sky above the swamp and flowing towards the direction of the outer tiger orc Yashi and the hyena orc Hedon.

Finally, the dotted line stopped between them on a dusty, gray stone.

The dotted line recombines into a red arrow, pointing to a clump of weeds pressed down beneath the gray stone.

Li Zhi looked closely and searched carefully before finally finding a small, almost black, dark green stone among the weeds.

It's at most the size of a little fingernail.

If Li Zhi hadn't significantly improved his attributes in all aspects, and if there hadn't been such a large arrow pointing at him, she wouldn't have been able to find such a small stone.

Is this the heart of jade?

Such a huge Emerald Mountain Range, and its heart is only the size of a dermatitis pore?

Who can find this?

And, by sheer bad luck, it happened to be right between Ashi and Hedon.

Is she being sent to retrieve the Jade Heart or to her death?

Such a lucky card can't just go down after four draws, right?!
