Chapter 348: Chapter 48: Stalemate

Not only did Li Changhe feel the intense shaking, but He Feng, who had already reached the edge of the deep pit, also saw the stones jumping at his feet.

He couldn’t help but look up at Paperman Zhang, raising his hand to grab his left hand and twisting it forcefully.

"Crack!"

At that moment, Paperman Zhang’s face turned pale. After his right shoulder had been pierced, his left hand had now been dislocated as well.

However, he didn’t curse at He Feng. Instead, he looked at the splashing mud in the distance and sighed, "Damn it, the [Black Palace] master has screwed me over."

Indeed, he was blaming Volga. Had he known about Volga’s destructive abilities earlier, his plans would have been very different. And after being caught by He Feng, he wouldn’t have been forced to cooperate.

Actually, at this point, it didn’t matter that much.

With World War II forces gone and only a few martial arts forces remaining, the Great Tang would dominate.

Volga was being viciously attacked by two LV9 players, and Lady Nanzhuang, injured, had vanished without a trace.

Neither of them had any [Friends], so the idea of coordinating was absurd.

Paperman Zhang’s side had lost all advantage in this task. The only difference now was whether Volga would die or escape.

That’s why Paperman Zhang agreed to He Feng’s plan.

He Feng and his team needed an enemy [Player] to stay in the Instance and prevent the enemy [Players] from dying or escaping, which would cause the task to end and reduce rewards.

As for Paperman Zhang, it was even easier to convince him. As a businessman, he just wanted to take advantage of the situation. He was content to be a ’hostage.’

Unfortunately, Volga’s move was a deadly blow. Why couldn’t he just escape quietly? If he had such output capabilities, why didn’t he tell me sooner?!

Now, the sound of the explosion reached them.

He Feng wasn’t sure about the situation with Moon God and Cangyue Ming, so he had to incapacitate Paperman Zhang first.

On the contrary, Paperman Zhang felt relieved, fearing that He Feng would stab him to death directly or force him to use the [Escape Coin].

"You guys actually have such destructive power?" He Feng looked at Paperman Zhang and said, "Your so-called wise man is really foolish."

"Don’t ask, I don’t know." Paperman Zhang sighed.

Father Xia, who was standing to the side, found their conversation strange. Just a moment ago, He Feng had broken Paperman Zhang’s arm.

But now, the two of them were chatting without any emotion.

Suppressing the strangeness in his heart, he watched the dust rising in the distance.

Father Xia’s gaze turned gloomy, as the Great Tang’s current strongest weapon did not have such power. Was there such a powerful expert among their enemies?

"And the Extraordinary Soldier on the island before... was it Li Ba? He single-handedly wiped out all the Barbarians?"

Father Xia’s gaze flickered, and he turned to He Feng, his voice old and sharp, "Young grandson, do you want to go and see your friends?"

"No, it’s already too late to get over there." He Feng felt exhausted. Damn it, divine grandson. He said, "Now we need to investigate the depths of the pit more quickly so that we can save them in advance. And we need to be faster than them!"

On the other side of the deep pit, two figures slowly emerged. One of them was wearing a black robe that covered her face, but from her figure, it was clear that she was a woman. That should be Lady Nanzhuang.

The other one was dressed in white and holding a three-foot blue peak sword called Long Rainbow.

He Feng knew that sword, Long Rainbow. It was sharp, with a blade three-foot-three inches long, weighing six catties and four taels.

He also knew that white-robed swordsman. On the island it was said "One Ye Gucheng can hold up a myriad of mountains, a Sky-Flying Immortal shatters the seven stars." The strongest among the martial arts forces on the island: Ye Gucheng!

But what he didn’t know was how these two had come together.

"Is this also part of your plan?" He Feng asked.

"No, absolutely not. That beauty never speaks, I just give her orders and she carries them out. I’m a prisoner myself, how could I have time to manage her?" Paperman Zhang shook his head.

"If you’re not lying, then it must be Ye Gucheng’s own idea." He Feng nodded slightly. He knocked Paperman Zhang unconscious with the hilt of his knife, striking the back of his head.

"Old Li, I won’t wait for you. Dual-pronged attack!"

"Understood!" In the woods, a black figure rushed towards the tree wreckage.

On the other side, the forest where Moon God and others were previously was now completely unrecognizable.

Half a football field’s worth of trees were violently cleared away, broken tree remains toppled in all directions, and the whole ground seemed as if it had been dug up and flipped over three times by an excavator.

Near the edge of the wreckage, three figures were entangled.

Volga had a curved blade on his neck, but the blade scraped sparks off his skin. His [Title Skill] effect was still active!

"You Hua Country people have a saying about being one step behind in chess, right?" Volga coughed up blood, but grinned widely.

Moon God’s upper body clothing had been shattered, revealing bone-deep gashes and at least four broken ribs on his left side.

At this moment, he knelt on his right leg, unable to stand as Volga’s foot pinned it down.

Moon God’s right hand held the curved blade against Volga’s neck but was entangled by a lock and chain, making it impossible to exert force.

His left hand tightly gripped a steel hook that was about to pierce into his left side of the neck.

Volga’s left hand, on the other hand, was trapped by Cangyue Ming’s legs and held down by her hands as she sat on the ground.

At the same time, a vine the thickness of a coin tightly bound Volga’s left hand on the ground.

Unless Volga could forcibly break Cangyue Ming’s limbs and the vine in this limited space, he wouldn’t be able to move an inch.

But the steel hook in his left hand had already pierced one centimeter into Cangyue Ming’s jaw, causing blood to flow.

The three of them were deadlocked.

Enduring the severe pain in her jaw, Cangyue Ming looked at the falling sheepskin paper not far away.

Struggling to speak, she said, "You actually brought such a thing with you; your status must not be low! There is a [Holder] willing to spend a lot of time storing a [Skill] for you!"

"Damn, so that was a [Holder]’s skill? No wonder it stripped my Moonlight Throne off!" Moon God gritted his teeth angrily, "How come I didn’t know about such a powerful consumable skill? Is [Evolution Game] introducing Pay-to-Win players too?"

Just now, the chaotic runes on that sheepskin paper flashed, and a huge six-pointed star appeared.

If not for Cangyue Ming’s reminder and quick reaction, Moon God would have probably taken a [Holder]’s Authority Skill head-on.

Unfortunately, the two of them were caught off guard and exposed their weaknesses.

Moon God’s [Moonlight Throne] was shattered, and he broke a few bones, while Cangyue Ming had also consumed too much energy defending that move, making her momentarily dizzy.

As a result, they were both quickly taken down by the prepared Volga.

If not for the fact that both of them were seasoned fighters who quickly reacted, things could have been worse...

"This was originally for dealing with [Holders]. I can only use it on you guys first." As Volga contacted Snow Shadow for support in the [Friends] chat, he said to Moon God, "Don’t worry, there are only 20 sheets of this sheepskin paper in total, most of which are in the hands of officials from various countries. It’s normal for you not to know. I have to say, you’re quite a tough opponent."

Then, he turned to Cangyue Ming and laughed, "As for you, since you know about this, have you finally stopped hiding your identity as a [Great Wall player]? Or do you think it’s inappropriate for a [Great Wall player] to fight against a [Black Palace player]? Hahaha, what hypocrisy!"

"Damn it, once I find a chance, I’ll definitely engrave on your tombstone ’This man was killed by a handsome and upright Great Wall expert,’" Cangyue Ming felt the pain in her jaw and gritted her teeth as she cursed back.
