In the forest.
Qian was racing along.
Suddenly, a Kunai shot in from the front right.
Almost by instinct, Qian dodged and leaped onto another large tree not far away.
However, the moment his feet touched the branch, he sensed something was wrong.
He looked down and saw an almost imperceptibly thin Steel Wire.
"A trap? Is it because I killed that White-Haired Ape just now?"
That was right. Just now, while he was hurrying along, he had for some reason been targeted by a White-Haired Ape.
Qian had not wanted to create unnecessary trouble, but the jungle terrain suited the creature far too well.
For a while, he had actually been unable to shake off its pursuit.
So Qian simply went all the way with it, spent some effort, and dealt with it. He had originally thought it would not draw anyone's attention.
Unexpectedly, the three-man team he had been pursuing was actually this close. In that case, it was no surprise they had noticed some disturbance.
That was right. Qian was basically certain that the people who had set up this trap and were ambushing him here were that three-man squad.
In almost an instant, Qian pieced together the cause and effect.
At that moment, the trap had only just been triggered.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—
More than a dozen Kunai shot in from front, back, left, and right, sealing off every direction he could dodge.
However, faced with such a predicament, Qian not only showed no panic at all, he even had the leisure to comment, "Not a bad trap!"
This was not a joke. He truly thought so.
In a situation like this, if it were an ordinary person, other than tanking it head-on and then falling into a passive position, there was almost no good solution.
