Chapter 414: Chapter 184 I’m Back! I Kill! I Conquer!_3

Pfft!

Fei Xiao’s tongue shot out, three meters long, directly sticking onto a rising stone slab in front.

The tongue, like a spring, tightened and pulled him to the stone slab; he did a somersault to land on it, then somersaulted again.

Fei Xiao used the God Hunter’s frog tongue and Giant Locust Leg to dangerously traverse this large expanse of stone trap slabs, successfully reaching the opposite shore.

He didn’t even take a pause to catch his breath before rushing to a wooden lever, grabbing it firmly, and yanking it down hard.

Clack!

Boom! Boom!

The stone slabs that had fallen were now rising again, restored to their original position.

"Hurry up!"

Lin Baici stepped onto the stone slab.

Although everyone was scared, they felt an inexplicable confidence with Lin Baici leading the way; as if by following him, they could be safe and sound.

In this situation, there was no need for Lin Baici to urge them; everyone was running as if they were chasing a love rival, full speed ahead.

Less than a minute later, most of the group had safely crossed over.

There were still a few stragglers, but Lin Baici didn’t really have time to wait for them.

"Captain Fei, impressive!"

Lin Baici praised.

"Don’t! Don’t! I can’t be called captain in front of you. If you think I’m okay, just do me a big favor and call me Brother Fei, okay?"

Fei Xiao valued Lin Baici highly. If Lin Baici were to join the Jiuzhou Security Bureau, his future would undoubtedly be limitless. So it was better to establish a good relationship early.

Moreover, he found Lin Baici’s demeanor and social conduct to his liking and worth befriending.

"Brother Fei!"

Lin Baici said with a light smile.

"Haha!"

Fei Xiao gave Lin Baici a pat on the shoulder, returning the Giant Locust Leg to him, "I’ll scout ahead this time, no arguments!"

Fang Tianhua was confused.

What was the captain doing acting so oddly today?

According to the team’s tactical habits, it was always the member who was agile and attentive to details who would scout ahead, while the captain stayed at the center. This was because there would be a boss battle in the end, and the captain needed to conserve strength.

But now Fei Xiao was acting as the scout...

Could it be he was trying to ingratiate himself with Lin Baici?

Up ahead was another section of the maze riddled with forked paths. For most God Hunters, this wasn’t difficult, but it would waste time, which was not necessary for Lin Baici.

With the Eater God’s hunger-sensing radar, along with the Divine Turtle Shell, he could always find the correct path first.

After another seven minutes and turning into a passage, Fei Xiao suddenly stopped.

"Be careful, there’s someone ahead!"

Fei Xiao looked serious.

Everyone immediately got ready for combat.

"Who’s there? Come out!"

Fang Tianhua yelled.

A man in his thirties came out from the shadows, dressed in light blue sportswear, looking like someone who worked out frequently.

There was also a large green flame above his head.

"You can’t get through ahead, there’s a large group of snakes..."

The athletic man initially wanted to mention some serpent monsters ahead, but upon seeing the scorpion monster following Lin Baici, he was dumbfounded.

What was going on?

"Are you a freelance God Hunter?"

Fei Xiao inquired.

"Yes!"

The athletic man nodded, "I’m Bian Xiang, I mostly operate in Southeast Asia."

[Delivery just showed up at the door!]

Upon hearing this, Lin Baici’s brows lifted. The Eater God had not shown any overt hostility toward other God Hunters before, so this statement suggested that Bian Xiang might have been from the lost coast or he had something desirable on him that the Eater God wanted to consume.

"How many years have you been a God Hunter?"

Not to mention Fei Xiao, a squad leader of the Jiuzhou Security Bureau, even a regular clerk had the right to interrogate this intelligence.

Because these were the powers granted to them by the arm of national violence.

"Three years!"

Bian Xiang seemed very honest, answering any questions asked.

"Did you come through those checkpoints by yourself earlier?"

Xia Hongyao cut in.

If it had been before, she would definitely have scrutinized this man and invited him to join the Security Bureau. After all, making it this far proved his strength, but now with Lin Baici and Gu Qingqiu around, her standards had risen.

"No, there were two others, but we got separated during an attack in the serpent’s den ahead!"

Bian Xiang looked both scared and hopeful: "Can I follow you guys?"

"You ask him!"

Fei Xiao pointed at Lin Baici.

A flicker of surprise crossed Bian Xiang’s eyes. Fei Xiao clearly looked tough, but why was a newcomer being asked to decide?

"May I know your esteemed name?"

Bian Xiang’s attitude was humble. He knew Lin Baici because he was a member of the lost coast, nicknamed Black Golden Ray. His mission in Haijing was to kill this young man.

"Lin Baici!"

Lin Baici continued to walk forward.

"Let’s take a detour. There are a lot of venomous snake creatures ahead, and I’ve tried but couldn’t get through!"

Bian Xiang advised, having tried several times without success.

"If it’s just snakes, I can handle them!"

The Golden Scorpion Queen volunteered.

"That’s fantastic!"

Hua Yue Yu exclaimed with great joy: "Your majesty, please, we beg of you!"

The Golden Scorpion Queen moved to the front.

Bian Xiang walked beside Fei Xiao, hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "Brother Fei, what’s going on here?"

He was simply too curious.

Clearly intelligent creatures like this weren’t summoned by taboo things, so why would it cooperate with humans?

"I don’t know either!"

Fei Xiao certainly couldn’t say that the female scorpion was helping because it wanted Lin Baici to father its offspring, could he?

Before they reached the end of the corridor, the ground was already covered with many snakes, their colorful scales heaped together like a snake skin spread.

They hissed with forked tongues and glared with their triangular eyes at these uninvited guests.

Hiss! Hiss!

The Golden Scorpion Queen slightly pursed her lips, emitting a hissing sound from her throat, and like facing a natural predator, the venomous snakes retreated like a receding tide.

The group emerged from the corridor to see a pit over ten meters deep that was wider than a university field, filled entirely with writhing venomous snakes.

Their triangular eyes uniformly fixed on the humans. If it weren’t for the Golden Scorpion Queen’s presence, the snake tide would have already begun its attack.

"Stay close to me!"

After the Golden Scorpion Queen spoke, she walked into the large pit.

"Is it really reliable?"

Bian Xiang worried. Once they entered the large pit, if they were attacked, there would be no escaping.

"I trust that Lin Baici would not joke with his own life!"

Fei Xiao quickly followed suit; he couldn’t allow a newcomer to outdo him.

As the Golden Scorpion Queen proceeded, the snakes parted way, but as it neared the deepest part of the pit, the snakes stopped retreating and began pressing forward.
