66: Chapter 66 Savages and Giant Apes
Fangs subconsciously wanted to shoot and kill Chen Fan.
But the next moment, he was shocked by the Crew Members crawling out.
He glanced at the 50 Crew Members beside him, then glanced at the dense crowd of Crew Members next to the avatar ship.
He inadvertently put away the compound crossbow in his hand and spoke subconsciously:
"china, how are you able to Recruit so many Crew Members?"
It was pitch black all around, but his actions were accurately captured by Drake and conveyed to Chen Fan.
"Private chat, don't open your mouth. This is my Talent."
Chen Fan sneered and controlled the Crew Members to surround Drake.
As long as he didn't get too close, Fangs wouldn't be able to tell this was a fake.
After all, the biggest difference between Crew Members and players is their appearance, clothing, and voice.
In such a dark environment, as long as Drake didn't open his mouth, it was impossible for the ruse to be exposed.
Fangs roughly counted them and discovered there were actually over three hundred Crew Members.
He couldn't help but gasp, a sharp glint flashing in his eyes.
Not to mention the Talent that allows for recruiting more Crew Members, just these three hundred people alone would cost three thousand gold coins.
This china is truly filthy rich!
Fangs' heart began to pound, and the look he shot at Drake was filled with greed.
"You're mine! I'm definitely going to take you down!"
"Whether it's the filthy rich supplies or this bizarre Talent of yours, I want it all!"
Taking a deep breath, he adjusted his state.
"You're cautious, as expected. Let's communicate via private chat. I'll lead the way, you follow."
Chen Fan looked at the chat window playfully, thinking to himself that this guy sure knew how to put on an act.
But this suited him just fine; being able to pry more information out of Fangs was a good thing.
"With your strength, capturing some savages alone shouldn't be a problem, right?"
Chen Fan adopted a tone of confusion at the right moment.
Fangs paused for a moment, then continued leading the way without changing his expression.
"Their skin is extremely tough, and ordinary attacks can't pierce it. If you want to get their horns, you have to capture them alive and deal with them back home."
"Then why don't you just capture them alive?"
Fangs curled his lips, "They have something like telepathy between them. If you capture one, the other savages will immediately sense it and swarm over."
"I see."
"And..."
"And what?"
Fangs shook his head, "You'll find out in a moment."
Chen Fan nodded slightly, calculating in his mind.
If he captured a few savages himself, then had Jiu Jiu kill them and harvest the horns, and then traded them back, he wondered if he could get a rebate?
After pondering for a moment, Chen Fan shook his head.
Probably not.
He had tried it before; anything that passed through his own hands, even if its form changed, couldn't trigger a rebate.
Just like with the treasure chests before; Chen Fan would take them and give them to Jiu Jiu, have her open them, and then trade the supplies inside back to him, but it still wouldn't trigger a rebate.
"It seems the only way is to have her come in too."
"But before that, I need to eliminate the risks first."
Chen Fan swept his gaze toward Fangs in front, his eyes gradually turning cold.
While Chen Fan was deciding to find a way to kill Fangs, Fangs was also constantly mulling things over.
"When he sees that big guy later, will he be scared enough to just run away?"
"No, I have to let him get a taste of the benefits, otherwise he might not dare to come next time."
Thinking of this, Fangs sent another private message.
"Let's grab one first later. To show my sincerity, you can take this one to study, and just let me know once you have results."
Upon hearing this, Chen Fan raised an eyebrow.
Is Fangs really this kind?
No, what kind of devious plan is he hatching?
After pondering for a moment and finding no answer, Chen Fan decided to just capture one first and see.
"Alright, I'll let you know once I've studied it. Let's catch one first."
The two of them dispatched a portion of their Crew Members to quietly follow behind a group of savages, waiting for an opportunity.
Not long after, one savage left the queue and walked toward the bushes, looking like it wanted to relieve itself.
The two of them stared intently at that figure until it walked to the edge of the bushes where the Crew Members were hiding.
"Do it!"
The Crew Members sprang up from the bushes, immediately covered the savage's mouth, and quickly retreated while carrying it horizontally.
The moment the Crew Members subdued the savage, the group of savages suddenly stopped.
"Run!"
Fangs let out a low roar and immediately took off running, and even the Crew Members who were restraining the savage followed suit.
Chen Fan was a bit confused.
Although he didn't know why Fangs was so afraid, he still ordered his Crew Members to retreat immediately.
"Babi Babu—"
The savages roared and turned to charge over.
But in terms of speed, they were a notch slower than the Crew Members.
Plus, with the two sides starting dozens of meters apart, the savages were gradually left behind.
Seeing this, Chen Fan wasn't happy; instead, he frowned deeply.
At that speed, the opponents couldn't catch up to the Crew Members at all, so what exactly was Fangs afraid of?
Just as he was puzzled, the ground began to shake.
"Boom— Boom—"
Rhythmic booming sounds rang out one after another.
Along with it, the frequency of the ground's vibration grew stronger and stronger.
In an instant, a giant ape, five meters tall, stepped out from the shadows.
"Roar—"
Seeing the Crew Members carrying the savage away, it opened its blood-thirsty maw and let out a roar.
Immediately, it leaned its body forward and half-squatted, its two fur-covered thighs suddenly tensing.
Bundles of bulging muscles became extremely menacing as they engorged with blood.
"Drake, you take the savage and run, the remaining Crew Members will buy time."
Looking at this pre-charge posture, Chen Fan's eyelids twitched.
As soon as the order was given, the giant ape roared and kicked off the ground, its body shooting out like a cannonball.
"Boom boom—"
Its soles stomped on the ground, kicking up dust everywhere.
In the blink of an eye, it spanned dozens of meters, charging to the rear of the Crew Members.
Fangs' Crew Members had all retreated to the shore, preparing to board the ship.
As for Drake, because his hands were occupied with the savage, he was a bit slower and was still dozens of meters away from the shore.
Fangs saw Drake, who was shrouded in black clothing, and subconsciously pulled out his compound crossbow.
But after thinking about it, he put it away again and gave a feigned warning.
"china, run! Have your Crew Members block that ape."
Chen Fan sneered and didn't reply.
His eyes were locked on the giant ape that was rampaging and sweeping through the Crew Members surrounding it.
By the time Drake returned to the ship, the giant ape had already slaughtered all 300 Crew Members.
At this moment, Chen Fan understood why Fangs had asked him to come and help.
With his 50 Crew Members, they wouldn't even be enough to fill the gaps in the giant ape's teeth.
"As expected of you, china."
At this moment, Fangs' treacherous smile came through the private chat window.
"I knew you could do it. Leave the dungeon quickly. We'll discuss this further next time!"
After saying this, Fangs immediately chose to leave the dungeon.
A flash of light passed, and the Fangs Vessel disappeared from the shore.
Chen Fan glanced toward the island and was instantly shocked.
The giant ape had already rushed to the shallows and kicked off the ground fiercely with both feet.
Its five-meter-tall, burly figure soared high into the air, smashing toward the avatar ship.
"Leave dungeon!"
Chen Fan silently intoned, and light flickered around the avatar ship as it gradually disappeared.
The next moment, the giant ape smashed heavily into the area where the sailboat had just disappeared, creating a huge crater in the entire shallow area.
