Top-class Bodyguard

"Moreover, I studied the map just now, and basically, we need to pass through the territories of three beasts. There are more dangers along the way, and it might take several days. It's better to take more of these things to increase our chances of survival."

Long Yue looked at the Magical Artifacts being handed to her one by one, feeling a warm sensation in her heart. "Actually, I don't need that many. Didn't I get a top-grade Magical Artifact before?"

"That one is suited for combat but not for defense. Also, if you wear this red robe, it will give you the ability to fly."

Ren Feng said quickly, "Let's set off directly in a moment."

Soon, Ren Feng stuffed almost a dozen Magical Artifacts into Long Yue's hands and led her on the road.

On the other side, Modo also opened his eyes. In that moment, he sprang up like a spring, surveying his surroundings cautiously.

His gaze was cautious and cold. Recalling the scene just now, he frowned deeply.

"What's going on? Why did I encounter a force that I couldn't resist before?"

Modo surveyed the area around him. He found himself on a forest path, with an open space ahead where bright flowers were in full bloom.

Modo took out a Magical Artifact from his storage pouch and held it in his hand. He sensed that this place was shrouded in layers of eeriness, which made him all the more alert.

As he walked forward, he found that the clearing ahead was filled with bright flowers, though all facing away from him.

With caution in his eyes, Modo looked up and discovered that the vast clearing was entirely filled with these pale yellow flowers. Aside from that, there was nothing else—not even a single weed.

Moreover, even the forest was a good twenty meters away from the flower field. This bizarre scene immediately made Anish's heart pound violently.

He knew that everything about this relic site was not simple. Even drinking ordinary water required careful testing, let alone dealing with these yellow flowers.

Modo took a look and realized that to move forward, he needed to pass through this flower field. In the distance beyond the flowers, there was a pathway.

Hesitant, Modo didn't rush forward. Instead, he found a spot to sit and meditate among the forest at the back. He wanted to see if others would try first.

Time passed second by second, and who knows how much time went by. On the other side of the forest, an expert appeared, making Modo open his eyes immediately, watching the expert from the shadows.

Seeing the flower field in the clearing, the expert frowned, then cautiously approached with a weapon in hand, stopping just near the flowers.

Modo stared at the expert unblinkingly, watching them circle the flower field, heading towards the distant path.

More than a minute passed without any issues, which made Modo frown. Could there be no danger?

But just then, the direction the expert was walking seemed to deviate. They were moving towards the center of the flower field!

It was as if they were bewitched, their eyes blank, yet their face maintained a smile as they stepped into the flowers.

At the same time, all the yellow flowers in the field turned towards the expert as if welcoming them!

Modo's pupils contracted, feeling a chill run from his spine to his limbs!

Each flower in the field had a human-like face, smiling as they looked at the expert walking into the flowers.

What's going on?

Modo felt his scalp tingle, as this scene was too shocking. What kind of beast was this?

Meanwhile, the expert had completely lost consciousness, with only a silly smile left on their face, continuing to walk inward.

All the flowers seemed to watch them, like ten thousand tiny smiling human faces. The expert continued walking step by step into the center of the flower field, surrounded by smiling flowers.

The next moment, the expert stopped, suddenly spreading their arms and falling among the flowers!

Their figure was submerged in the flowers and disappeared from Modo's sight, but he could see that the faces on the flowers had changed into the face of the expert!

Then, countless spores sprayed from the center of the flower field, drifting in the wind.

The pale yellow spores fell outside the field, landing on the ground, and instantly began to grow into new flowers, each with smiling human faces.

Modo watched this scene, feeling his scalp tingle, with sweat soaking his back.

...

Elsewhere, Duobao God Bailijia also awoke. He opened his eyes and immediately took out a rope Magical Artifact from his storage pouch, looking around cautiously.

Not far from him, a few others also awoke.

The experts awoke simultaneously with Bailijia, and as soon as they awoke, they all jumped back cautiously, eyeing the others warily.

Including Bailijia, there were a total of eight experts, quite a number.

Bailijia noticed the somewhat tense atmosphere and coughed lightly, saying, "I think there's no need for everyone to be so tense. We don't have any conflict over interests, right?"

The experts visibly relaxed, though they remained vigilant.

"What happened just now?" one expert asked coldly.

"I don't know either. We were all surrounded by that energy, probably due to this relic site's influence," Bailijia said with a smile. "But that's not the main point. The important thing is that we are all gathered here; it must be a sign from above for us to unite. Why not form a team to explore this island? Of course, if there are good items, we can distribute them fairly, or I can trade something else for them."

"The Duobao God never makes a loss in business. With you, we'll definitely lose out," another person said lightly.

Bailijia rubbed his hands with a smile. "Actually, I can also make some concessions. After all, it's a win-win situation. What do you think?"

The others didn't reply, but one person scanned the surroundings, frowning. "Where are we?"

"It must be somewhere on the island," another replied. "The frustrating part is, we can't be sure where."

The others also assessed their surroundings: "There's a path ahead, but no paths behind or to the sides. We should head forward."

Another person also took a look, and suddenly their eyes brightened, pointing to some water not far away, "Look quickly, what's that on the water?"
