Chapter 109 Encirclement and Suppression!
Shortly after the Shiyu team parted ways with the Sakura Kingdom, something unexpected suddenly happened!
The sky, which was originally clear and cloudless, underwent a dramatic and earth-shattering change in an instant.
Just moments ago, the sun was shining brightly and the weather was fine, but in the blink of an eye, it was shrouded in dark clouds, as if a huge black curtain had been lowered from the sky, shrouding the whole world in darkness.
At the same time, the dark clouds in the sky began to spin rapidly, like a giant mixer, stirring up the gloomy sky.
As the clouds churned violently, a huge vortex gradually took shape, its center shimmering with dazzling golden light, like a brilliant pearl embedded within it.
Immediately afterwards, a list shimmering with mysterious light slowly descended from the center of the vortex, attracting everyone's attention like a divine object falling from the sky.
Faced with such a strange and bizarre sight, the members of the Shiyu team were all dumbfounded, their faces filled with astonishment.
Especially Chu Shih-han in the team, her beautiful eyes revealed a wary look, and she loudly reminded her teammates: "Everyone must be careful! This thing came too strangely, and there may be some unknown danger hidden in it."
Before she finished speaking, Song Wanning, who was standing to the side, had already gripped her weapon tightly, staring intently at the ever-decreasing rankings, ready to deal with any unexpected situation at any time.
The list grew lower and lower, getting closer and closer to the ground. As it finally approached the heads of the crowd, they were surprised to find that strange and unusual words and patterns began to appear on the list.
The characters are crooked and twisted, like ancient incantations; the patterns are even more bizarre and difficult to decipher.
Just as everyone was pondering these mysterious symbols and patterns, a deep and authoritative voice suddenly rang out in the air:
"Brave soldiers, in order to encourage you to forge ahead in this difficult trial, we have specially formulated a rule - this trial will be ranked according to the number of snow crystals each person possesses."
Meanwhile, other soldiers have the right to seize the snow crystals from their opponents by defeating them.
The voice paused slightly at this point, then continued, "There are still ten days left until the end of the trial."
I hope everyone can muster their energy and go all out to obtain as many snow crystals as possible!
As soon as the words were spoken, a strange light suddenly appeared on the previously calm list. Then, the dense text and symbols began to move and change rapidly, as if controlled by an invisible hand.
In the blink of an eye, a brand new list appeared neatly before everyone's eyes.
People stared intently, eager to see who would be at the top of the list.
However, at that moment, a gasp suddenly erupted from the crowd—it turned out that the names of Shi Yu and several others had appeared prominently at the top of the list!
"Damn it!" Seeing this, Shi Yu couldn't help but curse under his breath.
His face instantly darkened, and he thought to himself, "This is a huge problem. If others find out that we have so many snow crystals, it will definitely attract countless covetous eyes."
No, we have to think of a solution quickly!
Thinking of this, he quickly turned to the people around him and said, "Everyone, hurry up and take out the snow crystals you have and divide them equally. That way, our ranking shouldn't be so conspicuous."
Upon hearing Shi Yu's words, the others understood the implications and nodded in agreement. They quickly took out the snow crystals they had collected and began exchanging them.
After a period of intense activity, the redistribution of the snow crystals was finally completed. Sure enough, when they looked up at the list again, they found that their rankings had dropped significantly.
Nevertheless, the matter did not end there. Even though they had taken measures to keep a low profile, quite a few sharp-eyed people still noticed the team from Great Xia.
At this moment, faint rustling sounds came from all around, as if countless eyes were watching their every move from the shadows.
Shi Yu naturally sensed this strange atmosphere, and he knew very well that he would probably not be able to get away easily today.
Sure enough, just a moment later, with a "whoosh," a group of people suddenly darted out from the side like arrows released from a bow.
When everyone saw who it was, they couldn't help but gasp – it turned out that this unexpected team was none other than the Salted Vegetable Kingdom team that they had met once before!
Facing the menacing enemy, Shi Yu gripped his weapon tightly, his eyes flashing with a chilling light as he stared directly at the Salted Vegetable Kingdom's troops.
At the same time, he said coldly, "Hmph! What, didn't you suffer enough last time? You actually dare to come looking for trouble again!"
The leader of the Salted Vegetable Kingdom raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a contemptuous sneer, and let out a cold snort: "Hmph! Last time it was just a momentary carelessness."
But this time, you won't be so lucky. If you know what's good for you, hand over the snow crystal obediently, and maybe you'll be spared.
Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless! As he spoke, he brandished the gleaming weapon in his hand, the threat clear.
At this moment, the atmosphere on the scene was extremely tense. Both sides glared at each other, ready to draw their swords, and a fierce conflict was about to break out.
However, at this critical moment, a mysterious team suddenly sped in from the side.
These people were dressed in strange costumes, their colorful and varied outfits dazzling in the sunlight; even more striking were the uniquely shaped masks on each of their faces, some resembling ferocious demons, others like majestic gods, making it difficult to discern their true identities.
"Hey, the fighting here is already in full swing? How could we miss out on such an exciting and thrilling scene? Hahahaha..." The team leader looked down at the two opposing sides, his tone full of mockery and teasing.
Upon seeing this unexpected group, the faces of the people from the Salted Vegetable Kingdom instantly darkened. The leader frowned deeply and demanded sharply, "Who are you people? How dare you meddle in our affairs!"
The captain replied unhurriedly, "Trivial matters? This is hardly trivial."
To be honest, we've been eyeing their snow crystals for a long time too.
"How about we all join forces, take care of these guys first, and then sit down and discuss how to divide this batch of snow crystals? Wouldn't that be a wonderful thing?" After saying that, he laughed smugly a few times.
Upon hearing this, Shi Yu was startled and couldn't help but ask, "A-San? Do you also want to get involved and get a share of the pie?"
The captain of the Indian team chuckled, making no attempt to hide his intentions: "If you have anyone to blame, it's because you have so many tempting snow crystals."
As the saying goes, "A common man is innocent, but possessing a treasure is a crime." Since we've encountered such a good opportunity, we certainly can't let it slip by easily.
