Chapter 661: Chapter 625: Killing Herself, Divine Lady (14 more)

The hornets didn’t attack them, and they quickly got up and ran.

The person observing them secretly couldn’t help but exclaim before quickly leaving in another direction.

Quinn Findley looked back and then at Chloe Stephens running along with them; the little girl seemed oddly funny to him.

Chloe’s face was neither red nor out of breath, which was also admirable.

Even though she couldn’t use her cultivation, she wasn’t the kind of delicate Miss that would annoy others.

"Those were humans just now, right?" Quinn Findley stopped and asked.

"Yes," Chloe nodded firmly. "They were just testing us; they won’t attack, let’s go."

"Didn’t we say we’d split up?"

"Since we’re being watched, there’s no need to split up now," Chloe worried that this group of people would be killed by the enemy.

Humans could be much more brutal than the animals here.

At least the animals would not attack when they smelled the powder, but humans were different.

Quinn Findley also thought about this issue and decided that it would be better to stick together.

This was their first time collecting medicine, and they were in such a place, so they were extra cautious.

Meanwhile, on the other side.

Seeing that it was getting dark, more than a dozen people lit their own bonfires.

The people who had gone out just now returned to their positions, and one of them pulled down his cloak hood, revealing a face around forty or fifty years old.

His expression was filled with excitement, though his voice was low, "We’ve just checked, it’s people who have just come in! After almost ten years, people have finally come in. Tomorrow we’re going to go in their direction and check, it must be that the gate has opened again."

Being trapped here, living like ordinary people and being bullied by these animals was truly frustrating.

If it wasn’t for their inherent strength, which they had cultivated to a certain level through trial and error, they wouldn’t have been able to survive in such a place.

They also found that their ancient martial arts could still be used on the other side of the borderline near that house. However, once they entered the borderline, they could only rely on their physical fitness.

Occasionally, they would go to that direction, and while practicing there, they found that their cultivation would improve more quickly.

However, they had to enter the borderline without reserve, train their mortal bodies, and then quickly advance their cultivation in an unrestricted area!

What took others ten years could be achieved here in just one year.

Despite this, they still couldn’t open the gate.

In that direction, there wasn’t even a gate, nor any mechanism.

To increase their strength, they often stayed here to train.

As soon as the middle-aged man finished speaking, the people who had been sitting there suddenly stood up.

An attractive woman’s eyes flashed with surprise, "Great Great Grandfather, didn’t you capture them and interrogate them?"

There was a handsome young man sitting beside the beautiful woman who looked no more than thirty years old.

The young man held the beautiful woman and said, "Helen, listen to what Great Great Grandfather has to say."

"We can’t attack rashly. They have a doctor with them and we don’t know what they’ve used on themselves; those things didn’t attack them," the man called Great Grandfather looked at the young couple in front of him and spoke about his concerns. "We’ll keep observing."

"I’ll take a few people to keep an eye on them," the young man offered to take on this task.

The middle-aged man nodded, "Let’s go tomorrow morning. They will not be able to go far. Remember, don’t attack them first. Here, we are all the same as ordinary people, and those people look like a mercenary group with a lot of experience."

The young man nodded.

The young woman called Helen pursed her lips and looked at the middle-aged man, "Great Great Grandfather, we’ve been trapped here for almost ten years and haven’t found a way out. Will this group of people be suddenly sent in like us?"

The middle-aged man narrowed his eyes, "There is such a possibility, so we will observe the situation before taking action. If it is really like when we first came in..." Then, there would only be despair and hopelessness.

Even though he had thousands of years of cultivation, he had no solution for this place.

At this time, the young woman spoke, "If the Divine Lady mentioned by Great Great Grandfather entered, she could lead us out."

The middle-aged man was startled and then shook his head, "We don’t know whether that person is still alive; before the Golden Gate closed, she couldn’t be found in Dark City."

"You said she has lived longer than you, so she must be quite familiar with this place. If someone like her comes in, she could definitely lead us out," the young woman just hoped that such a person would enter and take them away.

Although their cultivation improved quickly here, it was still very stifling.

Living like ordinary people, they got injured and died easily.

The middle-aged man couldn’t help but remember when he had asked the god-like woman how long she had lived. She had answered that she couldn’t remember.

What shocked him the most was the intense feeling that one day, she might kill herself.

At that time, he had felt the endless loneliness and confusion in her.

Even walking corpses were in a better situation than her.

Now, thinking about it, living too long might not be a good thing.

He had lived to this age and had done both good and bad things, but he could no longer remember them.

From being naive to being worldly...

She was the greatest person he had ever seen, and those who had seen her called her the Divine Lady.

But she seemed to have no interest in anything, not even emotions, as if she were a thousand-year-old piece of ice without temperature.

All life and death in her eyes were as insignificant as water.

So, when the young woman said these words, the middle-aged man thought that they might be better off relying on themselves.

Even if that person appeared, she wouldn’t care about their lives or deaths.

Perhaps she would just casually send them on their way with a snap of her fingers.

Near the bonfire, Chloe was cutting the cooked meat for Quinn Findley.

She took one bite at a time.

"Miss Chloe Stephens, how’s the taste?"

"Mmm, not bad, have you considered opening a restaurant?" She could visit every day.

"What?" Quinn Findley was puzzled by the question.

Isn’t it weird for a mercenary leader to run a restaurant?

"Do you know how to cook fried rice?"

"Yes, I do, and I’m great at it," said Quinn Findley with pride. "Not trying to boast, but this skill at cooking fried rice is a family heritage. Not to mention, my grandfather’s generation used to run a restaurant, and I’ve soaked up a lot of that life from him."

As he spoke, Quinn Findley realized that it was inappropriate to bring up these things, and he slowly closed his mouth.

"Well, you could try it when we get out."

Hearing that he knew how to cook fried rice, Chloe’s fondness for him increased quite a bit.

People who can cook fried rice are usually pretty good.

*Sizzling sounds*

Suddenly, countless large birds flew overhead, even bigger than the ones they had seen during the day.

Chloe looked up, her eyes shining with an inexplicable light.

That look, as if she was seeing a sky full of roast meat flying.

*Rustling...*

With a flurry of commotion, the large birds in the sky fled.

The people who were just about to take out their gear to fight: "..."

They thought they were facing a sovereign force, but it was just a useless piece of metal.

Chloe sat back down and continued to cut the meat and chew slowly.

The next morning, Chloe got up first and looked in the direction they were heading.

There were people there.

But she didn’t pay them any attention; they were here to collect medicine, not to fight.
