"save."
Without hesitation, Zhou Chen drove towards the direction where the flashlight was waving wildly. He was confident and didn't mind lending a hand.
In addition, he disliked aristocratic families and only felt sympathy for ordinary card masters who mingled in the outer layers of the secret realm.
The off-road vehicle arrived quickly, and Mei Xian dispatched her card creatures to intercept the wolf pack. The trapped person did not hesitate to drag his injured companions into the vehicle.
"Thank you, brother! Thank you, brother!"
They were extremely grateful, tears streaming down their faces.
Zhou Chen glanced at the three men through the rearview mirror. They were all covered in blood. One of them had his legs eaten and the other had his arm severed.
He stepped on the gas and quickly moved away from the group of giant wolves that were fighting with Mei Xianlingka.
However, there were too many truck crews calling for help near the main road, and they encountered another group a few minutes later.
Unfortunately, the off-road vehicle couldn't carry that many people, so he had to ask Captain Changming and the Cloud Mist Witch to help him out of the predicament, and then speed up the vehicle to get closer to the outpost.
Before long, he could see the lighthouse light of the outpost. The piercing alarm sounded around the entire outpost, and a faint golden light enveloped the outpost like a semi-transparent glass dome.
The sky above the entire outpost was illuminated by a dazzling light, which allowed him to see the densely packed wolf carcasses outside the tall city walls once he got close enough.
Giant wolves kept leaping out of the nearby woods, but they were quickly taken down by a beam of light from the city wall.
The main gate of the outpost was wide open, receiving one returning squad after another, while other exits dispatched other card division squads.
Seeing this, Mei Xian and the others breathed a sigh of relief.
They are safe.
Chapter 101: Running Away with a Bucket
The outpost was in complete chaos.
The early arrival of Sirius Devouring the Moon is definitely something the Card Master Association doesn't want to see.
It's like you take your dog out for a walk every day to poop and take a stroll, and then one day it poops at home, smearing poop all over the sofa, floor, and bed.
The piercing alarm blared incessantly, accompanied by broadcast announcements, reaching the ears of everyone at the outpost.
"The outpost has entered wartime status. All non-conscripted personnel are requested to evacuate in an orderly manner via the designated passageways. Unauthorized lingering is strictly prohibited and will be subject to fines, imprisonment, or other penalties!"
Repeating this...
The unexpected situation caught many people off guard, but fortunately, the association always arranged for personnel to enter the area in advance before the awakening of the secret realm lord, which kept the chaos under control.
Numerous rescue teams were dispatched, and even association members entered the secret realm from the real world. Under their suppression, all non-conscripted personnel were gradually evacuating the Hungry Wolf Secret Realm.
Zhou Chen had already retrieved Chicken Brother and the others, contacted Gao Liang and the others, and after confirming their safe return, he gazed at the disappearing moon on the horizon.
He was very curious about the situation on Tianlang Mountain.
Since Sirius Devoured the Moon and the Secret Realm Activated, the Lord seems to have taken no further action.
Were they stopped?
Why did Sirius awaken prematurely? Is this a frequent occurrence?
Zhou Chen stood in the evacuating crowd, next to Mei Xian, who looked around with a slightly uneasy expression. She was worried that the Pan family and Zheng Chao would take advantage of the chaos to attack them.
Once upon a time, Mei Xian believed that aristocratic families would abide by the rules.
After all, people won't get up early for nothing.
But today's events made her realize that aristocratic families have no humanity; if they're going to target you, they'll do anything to get you to do it.
In order to kill Zhou Chen, who had defeated him in the competition, Pan Yi managed to find out which secret realm they were going to, and then bribed Zheng Chao to do it!
Someone capable of this level of ruthlessness would definitely stop at nothing to kill her entire family once they discover she's not dead.
run!
Must run!
Mei Xian's thoughts were surprisingly similar to Zhou Chen's in the past: "Once we get out, we must get to the capital city immediately, and go as far away as possible!"
"Ah."
Zhou Chen was indeed planning to run away. He had inquired about the Pan family's situation with Xing Keji and knew that the other party had more than one senior card master.
He definitely can't beat a high-level card master right now, so while these people are still waiting for news, he needs to go to the capital and live in seclusion for a while.
This time, he will never trust anyone's talk of personal favors or face again. The sooner he runs away, the sooner he can rest easy.
The two quickly left the Hungry Wolf Secret Realm.
The hub was also in complete chaos.
Through the glass window, the real sun still hangs high in the sky.
Mei Xian and Zhou Chen wore hats and hoodies to disguise themselves as ordinary people, in order to avoid being discovered by anyone the Pan family might have arranged to meet them outside.
The profits from this trip were still in their spatial pack, so the two of them went to the store outside the secret realm next door to sell them.
There are also quite a few card masters from the Hungry Wolf Secret Realm here.
The crowd was bustling.
"This time, a lot of people are going to die. Too many people didn't make it back to the outpost."
"It's alright. When Sirius Devoured the Moon, it was only about an hour before dark. There must have been many teams on their way back."
"Dude, have you forgotten about the group of people at the makeshift camp?"
"hiss!"
The most direct impact of the sudden change was on the card master teams scattered throughout the secret realm, making a living.
While waiting in line, Zhou Chen was scrolling through his phone when he suddenly noticed that all the group chats were buzzing with activity, with a flood of both true and false messages.
In contrast, Mei Xian was making a phone call to her family.
Unlike Zhou Chen, who only has one person to feed and no one to worry about, she has many other things to consider.
"Yes, yes, go back to our hometown right away, and don't tell anyone."
"Don't ask so many questions, just hurry up and go."
Mei Xian's hometown is an industrial satellite town on the coast of Yunan. No secret realms have appeared there for a long time, so it is mostly inhabited by ordinary people.
After Mei Xian awakened, her family came to Fengcheng with the help of relatives.
"Don't be so anxious. Those people may not know we're still alive. Just leave as soon as possible," Zhou Chen tried to reassure them.
He remained calm even after learning the truth.
The Pan family will have to wait at least until the Hungry Wolf Secret Realm reopens, giving them at least four or five days to prepare.
As long as the news of his emergence from the secret realm is not revealed in advance.
Zhou Chen told Mei Xian about this, and Mei Xian naturally understood the importance of keeping things secret.
The two quickly sold out of the cards, and the huge quantity brought the final amount to 49 million. Adding the cost of materials, the total came to 55 million.
As agreed, Mei Xian only took 30% of the cost of the materials and 20% of the cost of the spirit cards, totaling 11.6 million.
The rest of the money belonged to Zhou Chen.
"We can split Zheng Chao's share equally."
"No need, I've only hurt you..."
Mei Xian originally didn't even want to take the 11 million yuan, since it was she who invited Zhou Chen, which led to all of this happening.
But she knew even better that not taking the money wouldn't make up for Zhou Chen's losses, and besides, she really needed the money right now.
Zhou Chen shook his head and said, "You are also a victim, so there's no need to blame yourself too much. I don't plan to talk to Lu Qingning for now; let's wait until she leaves the summer camp."
"Ah."
Mei Xian nodded slightly.
The two stopped talking and went home to pack their luggage and buy tickets to the capital.
Having nearly fled once before, Zhou Chen's movements were extremely skillful the second time, and he quickly shouldered his pack.
This time, however, no one called again, and he boarded the high-speed train to the capital without any problems.
After returning home, Mei Xian gradually calmed down and discovered many suspicious points.
How did Zhou Chen escape?
How come there happened to be a car left behind by that group of people in the woods?
Why were the hotel room doors still locked after they returned to the outpost? Shouldn't they have just broken them down and taken the things inside?
Zheng Chao...
Did he ever return to reality?
Mei Xian suddenly realized that everything she knew was Zhou Chen's side of the story, and she had no idea what actually happened while she was unconscious at the time.
She found Zheng Chao in her contacts and hesitated whether to call him.
"No."
Even if Zhou Chen lied, she is still alive.
If what Zhou Chen said is true, then calling him would only lead to her death, and given Zheng Chao's personality, it's impossible for him not to betray her.
Mei Xian used to have a crush on Zheng Chao, but after learning that he was extremely profit-driven and did not treat women as human beings, her budding affection completely disappeared, leaving only the intention to cooperate.
This was her third time going down into the secret realm with Zheng Chao. The first two collaborations went very smoothly, and the third one was also going well from the start to the middle, earning her the most money. But Zheng Chao chose to cooperate with the Pan family to assassinate Zhou Chen.
This was the first time Mei Xian had ever hated someone so much, and she wished he would die in the secret realm.
"Xiaomei, what happened?"
Mei Xian’s expression returned to calm at her mother’s voice. She said, “It’s nothing serious. You wouldn’t understand the details anyway. Hurry up and go back to your hometown. I’ll take care of things here.”
In the Hungry Wolf Secret Realm, Tianlang Mountain, someone kicked open the head of a brown-haired, blue-eyed man who died with his eyes wide open in disbelief.
"That's quite a bold move, but I'll accept this unexpected treat."
Chapter 102: Confiscating the Pan Family Property
Shen Du High-Speed Railway Station.
It was 2 a.m.
Zhou Chen walked out of the station and bought a second-hand electric scooter from a passerby for 10,000 yuan. He rode it for 30 kilometers and found a youth hostel that did not require an ID card and allowed cash payment for rooms.
Then meditate until dawn before setting off.
The unfamiliar environment and the city center made him hesitant to summon Captain Changming to run dungeons, so he could only rest for a day.
Zhou Chen had already blamed the Pan family for losing a day's worth of experience and diamonds.
"It's been a long time."
A gentle breeze caressed his face, making him squint his eyes in comfort.
After entering the capital, he decided to avoid anything that might use his personal information in order to remain hidden.
Shendu belongs to the Three Capitals of the Xia Dynasty. It is located at the easternmost part of the Eastern Continent, facing the sea to the east, and covers an area of over 500,000 square kilometers, a quarter of which are islands.
His intended destination was Bichao Island, a famous scenic spot in the capital. It was a place suitable for ordinary people to live in, with a large area, a small population, and simple folk customs. Crucially, there was no entrance to the secret realm.
For the Pan family to find someone in such a vast place who never ventures into secret realms is like finding a needle in a haystack.
When he registered at the end of August, he revealed his genius potential after only four months of beginner training. It is likely that the Divine Capital Academy would not mind providing him with protection.
As long as he firmly denies killing Pan Yi, and given that it's during the period of Sirius Devouring the Moon, he can completely shift the blame to the monster in the secret realm.
Can the Pan family turn back time?
Besides, those Romulans clearly didn't enter the secret realm through legitimate means.
Halfway through the ride, the electric scooter ran out of power.
He randomly picked a roadside shop, paid for his phone charging, and grabbed a bite to eat while he was at it.
While drinking his beverage, Zhou Chen checked the unread messages on his external account. If no important person contacted him, he planned to delete the account.
