381: Do you want to make a key? How many keys?

"Captain, what should we do now?"

The team members who arrived afterwards listened to the terrifying commotion coming from afar, and their gazes all fell on Xiao Changming.

The wild monster corpses on the ground were a huge fortune, and they were extremely tempting to them.

Normally, if something was ownerless, they would just pick it up. If it were a different time and place, they would certainly not be polite right now.

But...

None of them dared to move now.

The sounds of battle in their ears constantly reminded them that the terrifying big shot was nearby.

Picking things up randomly at this time could cost them their lives!

Xiao Changming was also in a dilemma at this moment. Seeing the miserable state of the wild monsters in the Emerald Forest, he knew that the mysterious big shot was extremely bloodthirsty.

If he picked up these things now, and that big shot turned back and saw him, he probably wouldn't even need to pay for a coffin!

"That... Captain Xiao, shouldn't we go take a look?"

At this moment, the ten tourists who had finished throwing up returned. One of the chubby young men among them asked excitedly.

"Look at what? Are you looking for death?"

Hearing his words, Xiao Changming couldn't help but roll his eyes, wishing he could open the chubby young man's skull and see what was inside.

But the customer is God, so he could only politely refuse:

"Some excitement you can join, some you can't."

"Over there, at least a Awakener of 5th Rank or above is fighting. The aftershocks are not something we can withstand."

As soon as Xiao Changming finished speaking, the chubby young man's eyes immediately lit up.

And it wasn't just him; the faces of the other tourists also showed excitement.

Most of them were sixteen or seventeen-year-old students. They paid to enter the Emerald Forest to experience the unique scenery and the wild monsters within, and to watch battles between Awakeners and wild monsters.

Now, the opportunity to witness a battle involving a Awakener of 5th Rank or above was before them, and the attraction was simply too great.

"Captain Xiao, we'll just watch from afar."

"Besides, you and your team are protecting us."

"I believe in your strength; you will definitely be able to protect our safety."

"..."

The tourists chattered, urging him on.

"This..."

Hearing the tourists' words, Xiao Changming's face showed an exasperated expression.

Watching a big shot of at least 5th Rank fight, and if a conflict arises, you still want us to protect your safety?

Are you perhaps thinking too highly of us?

Do we make keys?

How many?

Xiao Changming would rather die than do something so suicidal.

"Look!"

Just then, someone among the tourists exclaimed, looking at the sky:

"Oh my God! Look, everyone, that looks like a Dragon?"

Following their gaze.

Everyone saw a long, slender giant covered in blue scales flying in the sky not far away.

Dragon head, Dragon body, Dragon wings...

Everything indicated that this was a terrifying Divine Beast Dragon.

And on the back of this giant Dragon sat a figure whose appearance was unclear from a distance, but from her posture, she seemed to be a woman.

"Retreat!"

"Get out of here quickly!"

Seeing this scene, Xiao Changming was scared out of his wits and no longer bothered with other considerations.

A Divine Beast Dragon had appeared; that big shot in the distance was definitely someone they could not afford to offend.

However...

"Captain, I'm afraid... we can't leave!"

"That giant Dragon has found us."

Ma Kang, from the team, said tremblingly.

Xiao Changming was startled by the words and turned his head to see the giant Dragon in the sky, its azure Dragon eyes looking this way.

Although the other party only glanced and then withdrew her gaze, it still made Xiao Changming break out in a cold sweat.

It's over!

They've been discovered!

In front of a terrifyingly powerful giant Dragon, these people probably couldn't even run if they wanted to.

However, on the side, the tourists seemed very carefree, taking out their cameras and snapping away wildly, exclaiming in admiration.

"Oh my God! Is this a giant Dragon? This is my first time seeing one this big!"

"What a beautiful creature, I really want to touch her scales!"

"If I could take a picture with her, this trip to the Emerald Forest would be perfect!"

"Wait..."

Amidst the exclamations, the chubby young man from before suddenly looked extremely excited.

"I know this giant Dragon!"

His words instantly attracted everyone's attention.

"You know her?"

Xiao Changming frowned and looked over, a hint of disdain in his eyes.

A terrifying existence like a giant Dragon, is she someone you can just 'know'?

Not just Xiao Changming, the faces of the others around also showed disbelief.

"Really!"

Seeing the reactions of the people around him, the chubby young man frantically explained:

"I really do know her, don't you all?"

"She appeared on TV before!"

"Now that you mention it, I remember!"

A freckled girl in the team suddenly clapped her hands excitedly, her face full of enthusiasm:

"That giant Dragon is... is Wang Chen's pet beast!"

"She appeared in the National Freshman Competition before! It's just that she wasn't this big then!"

As the girl's words fell, many people around immediately widened their eyes.

Xiao Changming, even more so, gasped!

Wang Chen?

The National Strongest Freshman of this year?

No way!!

Looking at the wild monster corpses scattered on the ground, and then at the giant Dragon flying in the sky, Xiao Changming's expression was a bit dazed.

Wang Chen, he, has already reached 5th Rank or above in less than half a year since becoming a Awakener?

This is simply inhumane!

At this moment, Xiao Changming felt like he had lived all these years for nothing!

When people compare themselves to others, they feel like dying; when goods are compared, they feel like being thrown away!

The expressions of the other people in the team were also incredibly shocked and emotional, and they began to question life.

"Uncle Xiao, why don't we go take a look?"

"After the college entrance examination next year, I might become Wang Chen's junior. Given that relationship, he definitely won't make things difficult for us."

The freckled girl's eyes were full of anticipation.

Hearing this, Xiao Changming came back to his senses and couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.

Heh heh!

Become Wang Chen's junior?

Little girl, your imagination is truly rich!

Muttering to himself, he thought for a moment and then nodded in agreement.

Knowing the identity of the mysterious big shot made things simpler.

Although he had never met Wang Chen, he had read discussions about him online.

Gentle and refined, handsome and dashing, with a very easygoing personality.

At least there was no need to worry about the safety of himself and others.

"Don't touch these things yet, let's go and see."

Xiao Changming reluctantly glanced at the wild monster corpses on the ground and then led everyone forward.

As they continued to advance, everyone couldn't help but widen their eyes.

What they saw now, although not as bloody as before, was even more exaggerated.

There were huge pits on the ground like natural sinkholes, and large trees several people thick lay scattered nearby.

And when they got closer.

A more impactful scene appeared before everyone's eyes.
