Chapter 299: Chapter 18: Choices

Li Changhe and the others hid in a tree forty meters away from the battle, not choosing to approach recklessly.

Because there were three groups of people fighting each other in the field.

The group with the most members was the native wildmen. But they were somewhat defeated at this moment, the pale aborigines that had made Li Changhe exert physical strength to kill before, had now become the hunted party.

The group with the fewest members was a group of chivalrous men who seemed to have walked straight out of a martial arts drama. They weren’t many, only seven or eight, but each of them had unique skills.

Some moved like ghosts, jumping back and forth among the trees. Others had strange abilities, leaping and spinning their bodies. In the dark night, dozens of cold glows spread like fireworks.

One of the men had a bald head, with his upper body bare and covered with wounds. Judging from those claw marks, they should be injuries left by the native wildmen.

However, his momentum was like a rainbow, his eyes red, and his bearded face looked like a strong general.

With a single slash of the half-human-high steel knife in his hand, he cut two wildmen attacking him straight in half!

"Strength not less than 10 points. A Transcendent!" Moon God whispered his assessment.

The definition of a Transcendent is actually the surpassing of attributes.

After reuniting with Li Changhe, Moon God had briefly studied the bodies of the native wildmen.

Their Physique was not weak, at least reaching a level of strength that ordinary people couldn’t reach.

This was easy to understand since they were living in the wild.

The long-term struggle with beasts and nature caused them to passively evolve to have strong physiques.

Now this bald man had cut two of them with a single knife; his strength must be above 10 points.

"But that’s about it. The times have changed!" Li Changhe responded with a frown.

"Bang bang bang!"

As his words fell, splendid gunfire lit up the dark forest.

A row of blood burst out from the bald man’s chest.

"Evil Spirits!" The bald man let out a final roar in the Heluo language that Li Changhe understood. Wielding his terrifying steel knife, he rushed toward a direction.

But more blood bloomed all over his body, causing his body to involuntarily retreat in the end. He leaned against a tree, hanging his head and died.

His corpse was riddled with bullet holes.

A group of soldiers armed with rifles and machine guns was the third and final force among them.

At the same time, they were also the strongest group. Regardless of the seemingly transcendent masters or the uncommunicative native wildmen, they were all their targets.

"Boss Yao!" Someone in the group of chivalrous men roared in anger, but the intense gunfire kept them from raising their heads.

The wildmen were fleeing even more frantically.

The battle between them and the chivalrous men was going back and forth. As soon as these firearms appeared, the battle inevitably collapsed.

Like the Qing government declaring war on eight countries at the same time, they were beaten and fled in all directions.

It was because the times had changed!

As for the soldiers, they were indifferent to the roaring chivalrous men, faithfully executing their orders. After all... they couldn’t understand them either.

Cangyue Ming shook his head helplessly: "Judging from their outfits, they are from the WWII era M Country soldiers. From what we can see now, they are the strongest presence in this plot. But... we can’t win them over."

"Indeed." Li Changhe pondered for a moment. Not to mention whether the four of them could communicate with them, just the fact that they all looked Asian made it difficult to connect with them. Even if they made contact, they would be regarded as survivors of the crash. Being monitored or abandoned would be unrealistic.

Moreover, the military has its own way of doing things. It is estimated that their plans can’t be influenced by the [Players].

Furthermore, judging from their ruthless shooting and killing of the chivalrous men and wildmen, their orders should be to eliminate the dangerous presences in the forest. It is not certain whether Li Changhe and the others would be spared if they appeared. Being shot and killed as soon as they went out, the other [Players] would probably laugh out loud.

"We have too little information. We don’t know if the enemy [Players] can establish a relationship with this group?" He Feng analyzed: "Anyway, since they can’t be used by us, then... we can’t let them leave like this. Whether it’s killing or seriously injuring them, it’s an effective way to weaken the opposition."

Cangyue Ming and Moon God looked slightly stunned, then nodded, agreeing to the decisive approach.

Indeed, judging from the current situation, Li Changhe and the others had no ability or means to win over this strongest plot force.

But it’s not the same for the enemy [Players]. Race, language, and identity are all decisive factors. What if the enemy has a way? That’s all unknown.

Since it’s unknown, be prepared in advance! Moreover, it can pave the way to infiltrate the group of Transcendents.

"It’s just like in a dating game where the other party is a blonde, blue-eyed beauty. And we happen to not meet her aesthetic standards at all, even to the point of her not deigning to deal with us?" Li Changhe communicated with He Feng through the [Friends] channel.

"Can’t you get over this dating game thing?" He Feng looked back but did not see Li Changhe’s figure.

It was not surprising that at the same time when He Feng uttered those words, Li Changhe had already begun to act. The tacit understanding built up over the years did not require step-by-step explanations.

"Obviously, they’re also afraid of something." He Feng observed the soldiers’ formation, four military off-road vehicles, and more than twenty soldiers. But not all of them were involved in the shooting.

There were groups of ten working together to shoot, not allowing the wildmen and Transcendents to get close.

There was a machine gunner on each off-road vehicle. They looked around without participating in the battle.

No lights were lit, and the surroundings of the convoy were dim.

Only the gunfire and scattered torches barely lit up the area.

"That alien-like monster?" Moon God asked: "Indeed, from Uncle Cangyue’s perception, when the battle reaches a certain scale, that monster will appear."

"Almost, they actually want to end the battle quickly as well. It’s clear they already know the dangers in the forest at night and have figured out some patterns, like not daring to light a fire too brightly. So, the monster is attracted by the light? Dark Forest Law? He who shines, dies first?" He Feng squinted at the supplies on the off-road vehicle. They looked familiar; they should have been taken from the plane wreckage. It seemed that the conflict was because of the supplies.

"Their goal is to transport the supplies away. It seems that they have a base-like place, and the number of people there should not be small. Ordinary hunting is not enough for them to be worry-free." He Feng analyzed, "We can handle that."

"Isn’t it a bit hard? We can’t withstand bullets either." Moon God clicked tongue: "If you give me a gun, I might suggest you try a 007 lesson. Are we supposed to fight armed and well-trained enemies with our bare hands?"

"No, just create an opportunity for me." He Feng smiled, took out a wooden spear, took a deep breath, and analyzed the soldiers’ positions and shooting dead angles in his mind.

On the other side, Li Changhe had already approached quietly, about 20 meters away from the off-road vehicle.

That was close enough; any further and they would be discovered. The enemy had excellent combat skills.

Taking another deep breath, Li Changhe tightened his grip on the wooden spear.

[Remote Attack Expert] locked onto the target.

"Archer online. Let these young soldiers see that times haven’t changed!"
