Endless Winter: My Camp Upgrades Infinitely

Chapter 1449 - 461: Entering the Wilderness, Blood Jade Pearl, the Terrifying Romantic Flower Sea (Part 4)

The high-quality Blood Jade Pearl can indeed make up for the previous flaws and deficiencies in his flesh. After Xia Hong tested this effect, he could hardly contain his inner excitement.

To make up for flaws and shortcomings, in other words, is to enhance one’s potential. In his current state, even a slight enhancement can lead to a substantial increase in strength.

"High-quality Blood Jade Pearl, who would have thought, who would have thought there would be such a surprise. The only pity is that I have to team up with them, so the amount of Blood Jade Pearl I can get is limited..."

Looking at the team of fifty-one people, Xia Hong suppressed his excitement and quickly calmed himself down.

Although his strength is decent, he’s a newcomer and knows nothing about the Miasma Area. Leaving the team would definitely be the worst choice. It’s best to follow Fan Qinghu and the others to get familiar with the situation, and then decide later.

"The density of Cold Beasts in the Miasma Area isn’t low, and they can’t escape. Once I get a general understanding of the situation, I’ll look for an opportunity to come back alone!"

Xia Hong pondered for a moment internally. After the team distributed the Blood Jade Pearls, they happened to start moving southwest again, and he followed closely behind Cai Yunlan.

Although eight kilometers isn’t far, due to the team forming a line, and Fan Qinghu in front being extremely cautious and deliberately controlling the pace, it took a full quarter of an hour to reach the destination.

"Is this the Romantic Flower?"

A small hill, estimated to be about four to five square kilometers, suddenly appeared in Xia Hong’s view. The hill rose gently, with the highest point about a dozen meters high, not very tall. However, the hill was covered with a type of purple flower, instantly capturing his attention.

The original presence of blood-colored miasma, casting everything in a crimson hue, and the purple Romantic Flower on the hill showing a slight red tint due to the miasma.

This peculiar purple-red color abruptly entering his vision, inevitably made Xia Hong feel a bit uneasy and alert.

"Brother Cai, this Romantic Flower..."

"Shh! Brother Hong, be silent, look over there!"

Xia Hong was about to ask Cai Yunlan in front of him about the origin of the Romantic Flower, but before he could finish his question, Cai Yunlan interrupted him.

Following Cai Yunlan’s gesture, he looked in the direction pointed out. Upon seeing it, his expression instantly froze.

On the flank of the hill, about dozens of meters from the Romantic Flower Sea, there was a human figure slowly walking toward them.

In the Miasma Area, the visibility is only about a hundred meters, and that person was at least a mile away, so it wasn’t very clear. Seeing everyone crouch slightly, Xia Hong quickly followed suit.

"A humanoid figure, is it the Copper Bone Corpse Demon that Fan Qinghu mentioned yesterday..."

Xia Hong’s gaze was fixed on the area, seeing the figure still approaching them, a slight tension appeared in his eyes.

"Something is wrong, it’s not just one, there’s a group..."

Soon, the foremost Fan Qinghu made a new discovery.

The person walking toward them had become more discernible. That person had a long knife at their waist and seemed to be wearing a set of silver armor.

Of course, it wasn’t the outfit that made Fan Qinghu exclaim, but the fact that there were several other figures behind that person.

Moreover, as the figure got closer, the number of followers behind them increased.

"15, 20, 25, 30, 40...41...42...43..."

Fan Qinghu, Cai Yunsheng, and Cai Yunwu were whispering the count of the followers behind that figure, but by the time they reached 40, Xia Hong, in the fifth position, had already noticed something, his pupils contracted sharply.

"Also 51..."

Xia Hong counted the opponent’s numbers faster than Fan Qinghu’s trio, a strong sense of unease surged in his heart. Without any hesitation, his left eye flashed with a strong light, and he looked at the group again.

"Fan Qinghu, Cai Yunsheng, Cai Yunwu, Cai Yunlan..."

With the help of the Illusion-breaking Divine Light, Xia Hong instantly saw the group of people a mile away clearly. His face stiffened, his pupils quivered as he recognized the appearances of the first four, and his gaze slowly moved to the fifth individual.

As his gaze moved slowly, the fifth person on the other side suddenly seemed to sense it, abruptly raised their head.

The left eye of the person opposite suddenly flashed with a bright light as well.

The two met eyes just like that!

At the moment Xia Hong saw the person’s appearance, his body jerked intensely, his pupils instantly filled with shock.

The person opposite not only looked exactly like him, but even the attire, the Shattered Star Sword at the waist, the Yellow Mustard Bag on the back, and the expression at that moment were identical.

How could this be... how could this be!

Just as Xia Hong’s pupils trembled continuously, the person opposite suddenly opened their mouth and revealed an extremely sinister smile at him.
