Whew~

A strong wind blew by, whipping up a handful of snow powder that swept towards the camp, instantly filling the goggles of a soldier standing on the slope with snow.

He hurriedly cleaned up, and just then, a figure passed by him and entered the camp.

The figure was also draped in a silver-white cloak, wearing white armor, a helmet, goggles, and a mask, completely covering his entire body.

After finally clearing the snow off his goggles, the soldier looked towards the distant woods.

"I wonder what happened over there. They've been gone for a while now and haven't come back yet. Did they go to get rid of the parasites?"

The soldier shrank back. "They really picked a good spot. Who knew there were parasites around the camp? What are those guys even doing?"

His words drifted into Luo Yan's ears on the wind.

Yes.

The white-armored warrior who just entered the camp was Luo Yan.

After failing to find Chu Yuan at the Coyote Camp, Luo Yan left the camp. He used the ' Nether Gate Opening ' to conceal his aura and searched outwards in circles from the Coyote Camp. Finally, with the help of the ' Unbounded Blazing Eyes ', he discovered a cluster of humanoid gray light behind a high slope.

He crept closer and discovered that Chu Yuan was inside a chariot.

Luo Yan did not act rashly.

Along with discovering these people, he also found hibernating parasites in the surrounding camps.

So Luo Yan devised a plan.

He first took away a lone soldier, nailed him to death in the woods, and used the soldier's blood to attract parasites.

The appearance of parasites naturally attracted the attention of the camp, but a few parasites were not enough to alarm Chu Yuan.

As Luo Yan had predicted, a team ventured deep into the forest.

He then lay in ambush in the woods and used the toxins stored in his 'dragon' form to poison those who chased him into the woods.

Finally, he used a blade of energy to slit the throat of the 'Black Rope' level elite.

After taking down these men, Luo Yan took the equipment from one of the soldiers, disguised himself, and infiltrated the camp as a soldier.

Now he needs to figure out how to get close to Chu Yuan without being detected, so that he can poison Chu Yuan in the carriage.

After much thought...

Luo Yan plans to release the toxins in a different way.

Considering that Chu Yuan a Advanced level expert, directly injecting the poison essence into his body might be detected by him.

Therefore, Luo Yan planned to release the toxins inside the carriage.

This caused Chu Yuan to inhale air containing toxins without his knowledge.

The carriage is sealed, and even with exhaust, the air circulation inside is far less than outside.

This created favorable conditions for the release of poison.

At that moment, Luo Yan walked discreetly toward the chariot.

Inside the tank, Chu Yuan stared expressionlessly at the screen in front of him. Through the camera on his stand-in, he witnessed the entire process of Li Yu receiving 'himself'.

Throughout the entire process, Li Yu showed no sign of anything unusual, and even invited 'himself' to visit the camps that had purchased weapons in the afternoon.

"Am I just overthinking it?"

Chu Yuan picked up a glass of wine placed beside him and took a small sip.

He was so engrossed in watching the screen that he didn't notice something else had subtly entered the air.

About 50 meters away from the tank, under a tree, Luo Yan stood with his rifle in his arms, looking like a soldier on guard duty in the camp.

In fact, he released several streams of Amber Light Qi, which, like tentacles, probed into the chariot where Chu Yuan was, releasing a small amount of toxin essence.

Once these toxins are released into the air, they immediately disperse, turning into countless particles invisible to the naked eye, drifting and permeating the air.

Before long, the carriage was filled with colorless and odorless poisonous gas, which entered Chu Yuan's body with each breath.

Under the ' Unbounded Blazing Eyes ', Luo Yan saw that within Chu Yuan's mass of biological gray light, tiny specks of dark fluorescence began to appear.

Like fireflies in the night, they gradually penetrated into Chu Yuan's bioluminescent aura. After a short while, Chu Yuan's Vitality Value began to change.

That number is decreasing!

Inside the chariot, Chu Yuan suddenly felt a tickle in his throat, coughed lightly, but didn't pay much attention to it.

Winter weather is dry, so it's normal to cough occasionally.

He then glanced at the tablet computer beside him, which showed a signal from his trusted confidant outside the camp.

Chu Yuan picked up the Walkie-talkie next to him. "Why did Old Zheng leave the camp?"

Soon, someone reported over the Walkie-talkie: "Parasitic activity was detected outside the camp just now, and Mister Zheng has led a team to investigate."

Parasite?

Chu Yuan frowned slightly. "How long have you been gone?"

"It's been about fifteen minutes?"

"Fifteen minutes has passed?"

Chu Yuan immediately stood up. "Send someone to check it out right away." After saying that, he put down the Walkie-talkie.

"They haven't come back yet, not even fifteen minutes later?"

Something's not right.

"If it's just parasites, and there aren't many, fifteen minutes is enough for Old Zheng to clean them up and make a round trip."

"If there are too many, Old Zheng should notify me."

Chu Yuan suddenly looked at the screen in front of him. On the screen, Li Yu remained calm and composed, chatting and laughing.

Outside the chariot.

At the camp.

After releasing the toxin, Luo Yan went to an armored vehicle. The door was open, and there was no one inside.

Luo Yan crawled inside, closed the door, and then found something valuable inside the chariot.

Shoulder-fired Rocket launcher.

At this moment, within the ' Unbounded Blazing Eyes,' Luo Yan saw... Chu Yuan's inner thoughts.

'Could it be that Li Yu is just a front?'

Looking at Chu Yuan's bio-gray light again, the dark green glow had penetrated quite a bit, and basically, the area around Chu Yuan's bio-gray light was now covered with green glow.

He has not only been poisoned, but the toxins have already begun to affect his skin and are now penetrating his internal organs!

Inside the chariot.

Chu Yuan coughed again, spitting out a few specks of saliva, some of which were dark red.

His pupils suddenly dilated, and a thought popped into his head.

Am I poisoned?

Chu Yuan quickly reached for a medical kit placed nearby, which contained an antidote.

Just then...

He heard a deep, mournful howl outside the car, and Chu Yuan cried out in alarm. Then he was thrown into the air, feeling a violent tremor.

The tank's interior spun around, the walls warped, all the windows shattered, and Blazing Flame roared in from outside.

At the camp.

Everyone stared wide-eyed.

They saw a soldier carrying Rocket launcher on an armored vehicle in the distance, while their commander, Chu Yuan, was in a vehicle that exploded violently and rolled over. They didn't know whether the people inside were dead or alive.

"What... what happened?"

Who is that person?

"Never mind him, just take him down!"

Just as the remaining soldiers in the camp were about to move out.

The overturned chariot's door suddenly shot skyward, and a figure, covered in flames and smoke, rushed out of the vehicle, then quickly sped out of the camp and drove away!
