[Song Chenxing: I don’t know at the moment. I’ve already cultivated a closed respiratory system, so I can stay underwater for a while. However, I don’t know where the tunnel exactly leads to.]
Zhuo Bufan was silent for a moment, then turned back to take a look at the lake water. The ripples were sparkling, and no wind stirred up waves.
The more one could not see through it, the more mysterious it would appear.
[Zhuo Bufan: I want to learn to hold my breath too. Can Big Boss teach me?]
[Song Chenxing: You have no foundation now and have no fate with this method.]
Zhuo Bufan cursed in his heart. There was no way to hold his breath, nor was there any underwater oxygen equipment, but this underwater channel was in such an obvious position. If by any chance there was any danger approaching through it, wouldn’t he be waiting for death?
[Zhuo Bufan: Big Boss, I feel that we can investigate to the end. What if that place can be linked to other places?]
[Song Chenxing: We’ll talk about it later. What we need to do now is to go all out in the arena. I’ve noticed the rankings. The gap between us and the Demon Race is getting smaller and smaller.]
At the mention of the rankings, he curiously opened it. The Human Races indeed only three match wins above the demon race.
However, up till now, he did not know what use this ranking had, or was it just a statistic that recorded victory and defeat in the arena.
If that was the case, it would be meaningless, so the rankings were definitely not that simple.
If he wanted to figure out the use of the rankings, he would probably have to wait until the last day of the arena battles to find out.
Finally, the Snow Eagle returned to the shore. As soon as it came up, it shook its entire body to remove the excess water. The feathers that were originally attached to it now stuck out like sea urchins.
Zhuo Bufan had found a few poisonous fruits from the grass in the meantime. This was also his goal for coming here this time.
He knew that the situation in the arena would only become more and more dangerous as it continued. If he didn’t have a few concealed weapons to protect himself, how could he have the chance to win?
Zhuo Bufan could also tell that the arena was not some gentlemen’s game at all, so he also gave up on going easy when the outcome was determined. As for the severity of his attacks, that would depend on whether the opponent could give him a way out.
If they encountered the same demons in the next few days, there was no need to be merciful.
He casually plucked a few fruits and picked up the clothes that were thrown on the ground. Zhuo Bufan then walked back to his home, and the Snow Eagle also rather cleverly came to the side of the campfires around his hut, trying to use the temperature of the flames to dry the feathers on its body.
Zhuo Bufan saw this scene and kindly reminded, “Don’t get too close, be careful not to burn yourself!”
The Snow Eagle shook its head and really took a step back. Seeing this scene, Zhuo Bufan smiled with gratification and turned around to do his own thing.
He thought back to his first day in the arena. He was still wondering if he would die while battling, but after these few days of training, he had gradually grasped the essence of the arena.
He carefully cut open the few fruits he had picked and squeezed out the poisonous liquid with all his might. This way, it would be more convenient for him to use when the time came.
After coming out of the small house, Zhuo Bufan saw that the Snow Eagle was already lying by the fire and sleeping.
He walked to its side and whispered to it, “Don’t touch the thing beside the bed. It’s poisonous. I’m going into the forest to find something. You can stay here and warm yourself up.”
In the past, he had always heard that all living things had spirits, but Zhuo Bufan did not believe it. He felt that animals were low-level, and even humans were divided into different levels.
A smart person would be able to see through schemes and ideas immediately, but a stupid person wouldn’t be able to do it even if one repeated it hundreds of times, let alone animals. But this Snow Eagle could really understand every word Zhuo Bufan said.
Furthermore, Zhuo Bufan was able to determine that the Snow Eagle was able to understand the intentions he wanted to express with every action.
There was a strange chemical reaction between the two. If they were not in the Ten Thousand Races Battlefield, both of them would have long been captured by the relevant departments for research.
After entering the forest several times, Zhuo Bufan encountered some things that were self-evident. While the degree of danger in each area was different, overall, the benefits outweigh the disadvantages.
But this time was different from before. What Zhuo Bufan mainly wanted to find were the Needle Leaf Trees. The forest in his territory was so large, that looking through the map provided, he had yet to even cover 10% of the entire area.
However, Zhuo Bufan roughly knew the direction of the Needle Leaf Trees, so his goal in the forest was clear.
After finding the Needle Leaf Trees, Zhuo Bufan randomly picked a tree and used his machete to hack down a tree branch. He dragged it behind him and walked back.
When he returned to the wooden hut, he saw that the Snow Eagle had already left the fire. It had been pacing back and forth in front of the door with its chest puffed up. At first glance, it looked like a guard.
Seeing Zhuo Bufan return, he even spread his wings and flapped them twice. Zhuo Bufan threw the pine tree branch that he looked over to the side, entered the house, and took out the poisonous fruit juice.
He plucked a few needle leaves and stained them with poisonous juice. Then, he placed them at the ventilation spot to dry. In one breath, Zhuo Bufan made over a hundred of them. He only stopped when that bit of juice was gone.
But Zhuo Bufan was not clear about the power of the Poison Needle, and he could not find someone to test it either. He could only show off his skills on the ring in the next few days.
However, this was also the same poison that he had used on the bow previously. Back then, the effects were pretty good.
“Don’t touch it, or else you’ll die,” Zhuo Bufan said to the Snow Eagle.
In his territory, he could only resort to communicating with the Snow Eagle . Otherwise, one day, his language ability would deteriorate.
After finishing all of this, Zhuo Bufan finally felt a little tired. He returned to the small wooden house and first observed the situation of the two little snow eagle chicks.
Seeing that the little fellows were sleeping soundly, Zhuo Bufan let out a sigh of relief. He still had the thoughts on how difficult it was to breed snow eagles, but his workload was also reduced, all thanks to the adult Snow Eagle being more responsible.
If not for it flying out every day to find food, the small ones would not have survived either. But the more it thought like this, the more Zhuo Bufan was curious.
Why did the Snow Eagle ask him to bring the child back? Was this the legendary magpie scam?
After falling asleep early the night before, Zhuo Bufan woke up when the sun had just risen. The Snow Eagle was already nowhere to be seen. He sat by the bed to relax for a while, and only came out from the small house after he was completely awake.
He glanced at the needle leaves that were drying on the ground. They weren’t completely dry yet. He hoped the sun would be stronger this morning so that more moisture would evaporate.
In his boredom, Zhuo Bufan opened the chat channel.
[Ten Thousand Races Battlefield World Channel]
Within the [Human Race Channel]…
[Zhuo Bufan: Is everyone awake yet?]
[Aika: I’m up, but I’m still tired from the battles. After considering it for a night, I’ve decided to withdraw from the competition today.]
[Zhuo Bufan: Withdraw from the competition, why?]
[Aika: Because my strength has reached its limit. Only Big Boss Song, Tripitaka and you can continue to compete.]
The word “withdraw” instantly caused the channel that no one was talking to boil.
[I’m withdrawing too. I’m not fighting anymore. If I continue, my life will probably be forfeit.]
[Agreed. Upstairs, I will retreat at the speed of light.]
Aika’s words caused a wave of withdrawal.
In the end, only Zhuo Bufan, Song Chenxing, and Tripitaka would continue participating on behalf of the Human Race..
