Qin Yu shook her head slightly and replied again:
"No need to apologize. If you were me, you would have done the same!"
"Maybe, but..."
Lin Zhaoran responded and looked at Qin Yu.
"If the Bronze Skull Beast discovers our presence later, you can retreat first!"
Upon hearing this, Qin Yu paused and looked at Lin Zhaoran.
Before she could speak, Lin Zhaoran continued:
" Sixth Tier Calamity Beast is most likely beyond our capabilities to handle."
"In this situation, rather than sacrificing ourselves all, it's better to see if a few can escape."
"So, if we are discovered by the Bronze Skull Beast, I will order everyone to scatter and escape."
"This order applies not only to the other soldiers, but also to you."
As she spoke, Lin Zhaoran glanced at Yu Yanhui.
"Did you hear that? The Yanhui!"
"Then, Sister Zhaoran, should I continue to follow you?" Yu Yanhui asked, tilting her head slightly with some confusion.
"No, you leave on your own!" Lin Zhaoran said almost without hesitation, "Two Fifth Tier beings together are too easy targets for the Bronze Skull Beast. Unless you have a death wish, the best thing for you is to leave on your own!"
"Okay, I got it!" Yu Yanhui, pouting.
Lin Zhaoran glanced at it, then turned her gaze to the side.
The girl remained as calm and unassuming as ever, making it impossible to discern her thoughts.
Seeing this, Lin Zhaoran paused for a moment and added:
"You don't need to feel guilty or remorseful. After all, you were pulled into this situation in the first place."
"And you've already helped us a lot."
"So, if it really comes to evacuation, you can do it alone. With your abilities, as long as you don't attract the attention of the Bronze Skull Beast, evacuation should be very easy."
"And more importantly, you have something even more important to do than this!"
"Huh? What's wrong?" Yu Yanhui asked from the side.
Qin Yu also slightly raised her eyes.
Lin Zhaoran was looking at her.
She spoke up, answering the question Yu Yanhui just asked.
"You still need to find a way out!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Yu Yanhui opened her eyes slightly, then nodded, seemingly understanding as well.
Lin Zhaoran continued to look at Qin Yu and said:
"In this world, Origin Power is restricted, and there are also a bunch of Calamity Beast of the same or even higher rank than us."
"In this situation, finding a way out is very difficult, extremely difficult!"
"In our entire Plateau Erosion Zone, you and Captain Shen are the only two people I feel have a chance of finding a way out!"
" Captain Shen can avoid those troublesome Calamity Beast through his abilities, and you can also avoid Calamity Beast through your abilities. This is something none of the rest of us can do."
"But we don't know where Captain Shen is, or even if he was teleported to this space like us."
"In this situation, only you can accomplish the task of finding a way out."
"So..."
Lin Zhaoran paused, looking at Qin Yu.
Please, no matter what, you shouldn't get into trouble here!
Without an immediate response, Qin Yu looked at Lin Zhaoran.
A sigh echoed in my mind.
After a long pause, she nodded slightly.
"I see!"
Seeing this, Lin Zhaoran breathed a sigh of relief.
Just then, shouts of alarm came from the front.
Sixth Tier, Calamity Beast is coming from ahead...?
Time flows on.
Soon, the scouts reported that the Bronze Skull Beast had reached the designated distance.
Then, one urgent, low cry after another rang in everyone's ears.
Within a minute or two, figures appeared, some hidden in the weeds, others concealed in the tree trunks.
Lin Zhaoran glanced around, making sure all the other soldiers were in position, then turned his gaze to Qin Yu.
"Thank you for your help!"
Qin Yu nodded, her gaze also sweeping to the side.
With the cover of grass and trees, the effect is already sufficient; the rest depends on whether she can evade the opponent's mental power.
She raised her hand, and a black curtain, visible only to her, slowly drifted through the forest.
Soon, the wind blew, leaves rustled, and the scene seemed to return to its deserted state.
Then, one minute, two minutes, ten minutes...
Finally, a sound of wind, distinctly different from the normal wind, came from above.
Everyone instinctively held their breath and hid in their positions.
Qin Yu and the others were the same.
Then, very quickly, the three of them tensed up slightly.
It seemed as if an invisible force was watching them from their location.
The three understood that the Bronze Skull Beast was scouting for any humans nearby.
If it weren't for Qin Yu, they would probably have been discovered by now.
But now...
The abnormal sound of the wind in my ears grew louder and louder.
Everyone understood that it was caused by the Bronze Skull Beast approaching their location.
Then, suddenly, a very low but undeniably real low rebuke rang out.
"Idiot, keep your head down, don't look!"
Lin Zhaoran's body tensed slightly, but he maintained his original posture, staring at the ground beneath his feet.
The surrounding area fell silent after that sound.
The wind continued to blow, as if nothing had happened.
but...
Sensing the spiritual energy that seemed to have noticed something and swept in again, Lin Zhaoran silently squatted down on the ground.
Beside her, one figure after another, like her, remained rooted to the spot in their original positions.
"Leave, leave..."
At this moment, countless people are silently shouting in their hearts.
However, reality will not change because of personal wishes.
An unusual wind was blowing nearby.
Once, twice, three times...
After a while, as if realizing that he had just made a mistake, the sound of the wind began to gradually move away into the distance.
Everyone remained silent, staying in their respective positions.
One minute, two minutes, three minutes...
Finally, the voice of the investigators rang out.
" Captain Lin, the Bronze Skull Beast is gone!"
The woods remained quiet.
With a hint of doubt, Qin Yu turned to look at Lin Zhaoran.
She was still squatting on the ground, seemingly deep in thought.
Soon, she seemed to understand, and looked up at the investigators beside her.
"Are you sure they've left?"
"Yes, they've left!" the investigator nodded in confirmation.
Seeing this, Lin Zhaoran nodded and stood up from the ground.
"Everyone, evacuate immediately!"
Upon hearing this, the once quiet jungle instantly became lively.
One figure after another stood up or jumped down from the tree.
A reprimand also rang out at the same time.
" Wu Wei, didn't we already say this beforehand when we were told to hide? We can't look at that Calamity Beast! We can't look at that Calamity Beast! It's very likely that the Calamity Beast will notice us through this. What the hell were you looking at just now?"
"Ah, I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry, I was just really too curious, that's why..."
