Chapter 89: Chapter 87: Future Plans

At his words, everyone felt a bit strange. Zhang Zhongmou glared at him and said, "Hey, I wouldn’t admit myself to being old and weak. I, Zhang Zhongmou, may not be a top warrior, but I can still be a strong soldier, can’t I?"

Li Dong gave a bitter smile and said, "Qin Jiagui is indirectly referring to me. I haven’t even progressed yet... I’m of no use at all. All I do every day is carry a shovel to dig holes and bury the dead."

As soon as he said this, everyone glared at him. Ma Ziye snorted lightly: "That’s a cold joke."

Su Yu felt a bit awkward with their complaints and quickly said: "We should not be like this... Every one of us is important..."

Before he could elaborate, Qin Jiagui waved his hand and said, "Su Yu, you don’t need to console us. Actually, Officer Zhou makes a good point, it’s true. If all of us were stronger, we wouldn’t be in this state now. One York has left us all in a frenzy, and we almost didn’t make it."

After Qin Jiagui’s comment, Su Yu didn’t know what else to say.

Zhou Birong spoke solemnly: "I brought up this question, not so that everyone could blame themselves. I think the most important issue now is for us all to become stronger. The more strength we gain, the greater our chances of survival."

"Hmm." Su Yu nodded. He had been considering this issue too. As they continuously encountered more and more terrifying monsters, if they couldn’t increase their strength, it would be extremely dangerous for them.

Among the twelve of them, Su Yu was at the Third Level, Qin Jiagui, Zhang Zhongmou, Ma Ziye, Zhou Birong, and Zhao Shichang were only at First-Level. The rest were all at Zero-Level. The disparity in their strength was severe. Combined, the other eleven people were still not as powerful as Su Yu. Continuing in this way was indeed dangerous, they couldn’t rely on Su Yu forever.

In the end, they all discussed and decided to first try as much as they could to help those who were not yet First-Level Black Iron Warriors, like Li Dong, evolve to First-Level. Then, Su Yu would help Ma Ziye, Qin Jiagui, and others to evolve to Second-Level Black Iron Warriors as soon as possible. It was hazardous to evolve into a higher-level Black Iron Warrior as they would need to kill monsters much stronger than themselves. With Su Yu’s assistance, this could become a lot easier.

Only with Ma Ziye and others becoming stronger could Su Yu more easily deal with the terrifying monsters. Su Yu particularly admired Ma Ziye’s "Steel Web". If Ma Ziye’s "Steel Web" could evolve, it would play an immeasurable role in the future.

Having decided on this preliminary policy, they discussed various ways to cooperate with each other, such as how to deal with a particularly strong monster or how to manage a swarm of monsters. Everyone was very engaged in the discussion, sharing their thoughts in hopes that they could maximize each person’s abilities.

Among them, Su Yu and Ma Ziye were considered to be the best partners, especially when dealing with particularly terrifying monsters. Everyone agreed that Ma Ziye could provide Su Yu with the greatest support.

Knowing that there might be a presence of a Treasure Map gave them hope of leaving the forest and this world. Their desire to survive was thus stimulated unprecedentedly. They hoped to stay alive in the final journey and return to their familiar peaceful world.

No one wanted to die in this terrifying place in the final stage of their journey.

The day passed uneventfully. They only saw a group of about fifteen or sixteen small Goblin Beasts wandering far away. The creatures did not approach their cave, either they hadn’t noticed their presence, or they were aware of the dangerous traps around the cave and chose to keep their distance.

Qin Jiagui kept staring at the diary Jennifer left behind, with the writings and map she had drawn. He memorized the map thoroughly in his mind and analyzed it over and over again.

"According to this map, there’s a large canyon to the north, about ten kilometers away from this cave... But these..."

Qin Jiagui eventually gave up, realizing that they could not determine the exit based on the simple map in the diary. Their only hope now was to find the "Treasure Map".

The so-called "Treasure Map" was a kind of treasure, much like Su Yu’s "Earth Spike Ring", hidden inside a creature with a "Golden Bloodline".

Su Yu’s "Earth Spike Ring" was obtained from a "Golden Goblin", while York had obtained the treasure box from a "Golden Goblin", which contained the map. According to Jennifer’s deduction, the map indicated the way to leave this forest and even this world.

This map was a priceless treasure. Regrettably, York lost his mind and believed that the three children were safe. He wanted to stay with them here. Jennifer, who loved her husband too much, also decided to stay with him.

This was a tragic and pitiful family. However, Qin Jiagui didn’t have much sympathy. After all, they were all pitiful and helpless. No one knew if they would still be alive the next day.

At night, after everyone had eaten and arranged for someone to keep watch, everyone else went to sleep. They slept in the cave, feeling a sense of security. This night was probably the most relaxed and sound sleep for everyone since they had entered the forest. Due to the cave’s noise isolation, the terrifying roars that usually rose at night were also greatly reduced.

When dawn came, Su Yu was the first to wake up. He silently sat up and found that everyone else was still asleep. Even Zhou Huakang, who was supposed to be on guard during his shift, had fallen asleep at the cave entrance.

Among them, Zhang Zhongmou had the worst sleeping posture. There was a puddle of drool at the corner of his mouth. He clasped one of Zhao Shichang’s smelly feet in his arms and rubbed his face against it with a lewd expression. Su Yu suspected that he was having a very graphic dream.

Ning Yan had the sweetest and most elegant sleeping posture, worthy of being termed a begonia sleep posture. Additionally, as she hadn’t done much monster hunting compared to the others, her clothes were the cleanest. Sleeping there, she seemed endlessly beautiful.

Su Yu sighed quietly to himself. Ning Yan’s appearance and temperament were indeed very good, good enough to make one want to cherish and protect her, but her personality was very strange. Very strange indeed that one didn’t know how to approach her. Moreover, the bizarre "666" that appeared on the back of her neck was like a thorn lodged in Su Yu’s heart, and he didn’t understand it.

Su Yu also used his "Perception Eye" to silently gather information about Ning Yan many times, hoping to uncover something about this "666". But he couldn’t find anything, which turned this matter into an unsolved mystery buried in his heart.

Su Yu didn’t wake anyone up. He shook his head to clear his thoughts, gently moved the rocks blocking the cave entrance, and walked out alone. He stretched his arms and his body made a series of crisp sounds.
