Chapter 1260: Choices

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Both Sword Shield Rose and Saruman Snake were training behind closed doors. There was nothing else that they needed to be worried about now. They did not have to consider what was to come either. This was the last match, the last battle. If they defeated their opponent, they would be standing at the peak.

Hence, they could show all their tactics and their aces. It was a battle of the wits and bravery!

Oracle Star.

Thorny forest.

Covering several thousand square kilometres. It was not known if these were thorny trees or if the original forest was invaded by the thorns, and co-existed thereafter.

The thorns were creeping. The sharp thorns were not the colour of brown of plants but the colour of bones with a tint of blood red at the tips. They were like shaved, sharp bones of humans. They were alive. They did not have the freedom of animals, but they were not passively accepting like plants.

An ignorant bird flew past from high above. The long distance made it overlook the threats of the thorny forest.

Slam! Pa!

A clear sound rang out.

A thorn suddenly detached itself in high speed from the vines. Fast as a bullet, it drilled right into the body of the flying bird. It fell into the forest and became a sumptuous blood feast for the lush forest.

The vines swept over the bird that had lost its vitality. Squeezing and crashing, not leaving any residue. Everything had been digested. Even the hard bones. After high compression, it drilled through the vines and became a new thorn.

This should be a place where there should be no trace of human activity. It should be a death zone of a death zone. Yet there were signs of people around the forest.

Right then, Meng Tian’s team had quietly arrived at the entrance at the edge of the forest.

Looking at the deep forest, Yuan Jing whistled. Behind the seemingly contemptuous look was a hidden cautiousness against Xie Yuxin. “How can you be certain that the thorns will not attack us? Also, the exchange office that you were talking about, is it really in there? Is it really only in there that we can cancel the mission of the tracker?”

The looks in the eyes of the other members in the small team were equally unfriendly.

The arrival of Xie Yuxin had a great impact to the team that had just settled down. Before his arrival, everyone did not have any goal. If there was any, it was to try hard to survive and wait for the Milky Way Alliance to rescue them. This could be considered very unambitious, and just muddling along. But for the majority of the members of the small team, reality beat everything. This was their best outcome. Taking risks meant getting hurt. Even the Earth-rank masters would not dare to say that they were safe.

But the arrival of Xie Yuxin had completely shattered the stable environment.

Just like this time, the aim of coming to the thorny forest was to enter the exchange office in the centre of the thorny forest, and accepting the tasks of removing the restricted trackers.

Quoting Xie Yuxin, not removing the trackers was like waiting for a slow death. The underlying statement was obviously that some people were useless.

Although it was not expressed plainly, there were some in the team that were very uncomfortable. Although trading time had become more difficult over time, stalling a day is another day gained. Maybe a miracle might happen.

However, deep down, Meng Tian and a few key members understood very well. It wasn’t that they did not know, it was just that they could not make up their minds. Now that they had found a way, they had to be decisive. Otherwise, it would be just as Xie Yuxin had said: not only would they be restrained, they could not also enter the core of this world. Rescue... they could wait, but could not depend on it!

With regards to the hostility, Xie Yuxin only gave a faint smile and said, “There’s bound to be danger. But as long as you can do what I’ve said, you can control the level of danger. Of course, this is still not hundred percent safe. Whether you can break through is still a personal matter.”

He did not give any sort of guarantee. Instantly, there was some commotion within the team. In fact, Xie Yuxin saw it even more clearly. The trackers were superfluous, a redundant addition. If those people had wanted to kill them, they would have done so earlier. Since they did not kill them, it meant that there were some other ulterior motives. It did not matter if they were with or without the trackers. There was a motive to anything. If that was the case, the motive was very clear. The mastermind behind this was afraid that the people would not amount to much and just laze around... it would then defeat the purpose. Hence, they would have left ways to remove the trackers. Just as Xie Yuxin had predicted, he had found it and it had worked. However, even now, with the solution in hand, there were still people doubting it. C’est la vie.

Before arriving here, everyone was a warrior of the Milky Way Alliance. But things had changed. The environment could change a person. This was normal. Xie Yuxin did not seem to be surprised. Hence, he had made the decision.

Men Jia and Yuan Jing were, after all, Earth-rank masters. Thus, they accepted Xie Yuxin’s words. They did not want to be sitting ducks. Since they had come this far, there was no other way back.

However, for those who succumbed to reality because of their lack of strength, they definitely would not want to take the risk.

They were content with their current state of existence. Regardless of Xie Yuen’s extravagant persuasions, whether it was about goals or opportunities, after witnessing the great organisational capabilities of the Oracle Star, most people had not expected to accomplish things on their own. They could only rest their hopes on being rescued by the Milky Way Alliance. But this was not some delusional hope. There were so many people, and many among them were of important status. The Milky Way Alliance could not afford not to take any action.

Truthfully, Xie Yuxin thought that these people were really naïve. Even if they managed to stall for more time, how could this organisation possibly just watch as they continued to consume food without concern?

Instead of waiting for the enemy to come knocking on their doors, they might as well grab the present opportunity.

Meng Tian looked determined. She was a clever person and had understood the situation a long time ago. “I’ll go in first!”

Under Xie Yuxin’s arrangement, everyone had been undergoing special training regarding the thorny forest for the past few days. As long as they followed the training, there should not be a problem.

If it had been in the past, as long as Meng Tian had spoken, even if anyone had other opinions, they would have kept their mouth shut. If it had not been for the support of Meng Tian, at least half the team would not have any other way out.

But this time, someone raised his opinion. “Captain Meng Tian.

“Removing the trackers is a good thing, but we have to be tactical. I feel that we should proceed as before and make gradual progression. Be sure and steady. We should be absolutely sure before we make a move. This should be the most suitable method for us. After all, we are unlike some people. There is a difference between coming here earlier and later. They had different thoughts as well. That’s normal. If we’re not careful, then we are goners.”

Jay York, also a student of the Milky Way Galaxy Military College. His Ability X – Substance Interference. He could interfere with the stability of substances. He could be considered part of the main force. However, unlike Meng Tian and the rest, he had been transported to the Oracle Star while playing Saint World.

That was something obviously very wrong with Xie Yuxin. What were the two of them secretly up to? From what Jay York could see, this could be a trap to steal their time.
