The Ultimate Evolution

Chapter 716: Forewarned is forearmed

Translator: Translation Nation Editor: Translation Nation

"Ah, what……a gallant dude!" Sheyan muttered to himself after spectating Tuloi Helenite.

After clashing with the Shadowdrill Deinonychus yesterday, he was extremely clear on the HP of those dinosaurs. Although those dinosaurs were lacking in vitality and defence, they were still creatures that lived in such vile environments. Regardless, they definitely weren't as weak as nothing!

However, this Tolui Helenite actually needed only three moves to slay a single healthy Shadowdrill Deinonychus!

This signified that of those three moves, one of them was an incredibly special and formidable ability. With how deadly it was when executing a Shadowdrill Deinonychus, what sort of horrors would a Blood Weapon, specifically made for battling contestants, deliver to a contestant? Possibly, a low health points individual like Brother Black would tragically meet his demise, within mere seconds of getting close to that Blood Weapon.

The more Zi beheld Sheyan's countenance, the more she felt unpleasantness in her eyes. The always cold and conceited her couldn't resist the urge to taunt.

"Why? Finally afraid? That guy even possesses an outrageously powerful surprise attack ability, which grants him a 700% boost when pouncing at a target! When a battle breaks out, you may think he is approaching from afar, yet within a second, he can activate that ability and pounce straight into your face for a surprise assault…Oi!! I'm haven't finished my statement"

As it turns out, while Zi was still speaking, Sheyan blatantly walked off and started a secret heated discussion with Reef.

At present, Zi felt as though she hadn't been so gloomy and frustrated before. She couldn't help but feel a baffling jittery towards this Seaman. Whenever she tried to ignore him, he would always pass off a statement that she felt obliged to answer. Whenever she wanted an answer, this brat would seemingly be entranced in his own thoughts…

Meanwhile, Mogensha was spectating the chaotic battle with an excited and bloodthirsty gaze. He then licked his thick lips and uttered.

"Boss, how 'bout we exploit this? With how painful those pesky large clawed lizards are, those five brats are definitely going all out; attempting to conclude the fight as fast as possible, because once it drags on, casualties may start appearing. We can give em' a marvellous surprise when they are about to conclude the battle."

Sheyan chortled in response.

"The Metals Professor is thinking likewise."

Upon hearing the name, Metals Professor, Zi's hand trembled and spilled some of the water she was drinking. Sheyan pretended not to see that and continued.

"Actually, the sneaky arrangements we've left behind can be counted as pretty sloppy. I believe they'll be able to notice traces of our schemes…afterwards, when the sudden ambush of those incredibly deadly Shadowdrill Deinonychus occurs, they would think of it as the climax of a trap. A trap that unfolds when Zi emerges unexpectedly to annihilate them alongside dinosaur 'allies'."

"Therefore, haven't you guys discovered? Those contestants fending off the pack of Shadowdrill Deinonychus, seem extremely relaxed…because they possess the reassurance of hidden comrades. Moreover, the evidence of this is the absence of the Metals Professor who should've been here."

"Hence, our impulsiveness would be met with well prepared enemies, who have been waiting for a long time, instead of weary and exhausted opponents. Those enemies are led by the Metals Professor. Us three appearing will merely cause a momentary astonishment, followed by an arduous blood bath, and possibly party annihilation…"

Reef refuted.

"That doesn't sound right. If those members of Glory Party are trying to beat a trap with a trap, the Metals Professor, as their leader, should be the amongst the crowd battling against those Shadowdrill Deinonychus. If she is really hiding, won't that clearly reveal she's spectating from the shadows?"

Sheyan's lips curled up as he replied.

"Therefore, this implies one thing - After resurrecting, the Metals Professor now cherishes her life dearly. Oh, in consideration for lady Zi's feelings, we shall say that the Metals Professor is scared of death."

"Let us speak from the Metals Professor's perspective. Now I've forced Zi into a dead end, why would I set up such a flawed snare for her? Undoubtedly, there's two possibilities. One is that I truly have no other alternatives. The other less likely option is…"

Speaking till here, Sheyan purposely paused.

"I fear the frenzied backlash of a dying dog before it dies! Wanting to take me down in mutual destruction!" Brother Black couldn't resist spoiling the suspense, as he added an oomph of murderous sternness.

He then panicked and swung round, and noticed Zi casting a dreadfully lethal glare towards him. The rhombus mana crystals revolving around here accelerated instantaneously……

"Ooops, I didn't mean that you are a dog, ah sheet, I swear I wasn't implying that!"

Mogensha hurriedly sealed his mouth. Besides, regardless of fame or prowess, Zi completely eclipsed him……yet, it was a wonder why Sheyan, an unawakened contestant, could continuously bicker with Zi; such was probably fate.

Sheyan continued speaking nonchalantly.

"Therefore, the Metals Professor, Fu Lyanna, is exceedingly afraid. She fears such a minute probability outcome happening; the prospect of Zi dragging her along into the grave…thus, she'd rather her plan be flawed than take the risk. Of course, we cannot exclude the fact that this flaw is intentional, and she wishes to slowly toy around with Zi; like a cat catching a rat."

When Sheyan issued his last sentence, Zi's expression turned as unsightly as the bottom of a burnt boiler. Nevertheless, common sense told her that Sheyan's words weren't without logic, and she couldn't retort him at all.

Fortunately, Reef decided to change the topic.

"Then what should we do now?"

Sheyan calmly suggested.

"We wait. Oh right, Zi, does your main mission have a completion deadline? This relates to whether you can vent some frustrations you know."

Frankly speaking, Zi was dying to ignore this brute. Yet Sheyan's last sentence coincidentally ignited her current emotions. Thus, she took a deep breath and hatefully answered.

"Yes, a deadline of one week."

"Oh woah, that is the best news I've heard from you since we first met till now." Sheyan immediately paid careful attention.

"You…" No matter how she heard it, Zi felt that this Seaman brat carried a particular mockery in his words. Still, she wasn't in a position to vent her anger, and could only warn herself to calm down…

The trio continued spectating as the members of Glory Party created a carnal bloodbath, slaughtering ten plus of those Shadowdrill Deinonychus. Concurrently, they were also vividly injured and were thoroughly exhausted.

Mogensha and Reef both glanced at Sheyan. Instead, Sheyan merely uttered a single word.

"Wait."

Those Shadowdrill Deinonychus remained undaunted. When they invested into combat, they went all out without cowering. Nonetheless, these dinosaurs possessed some intelligence.

For example, when Sheyan slew a tiny pack of Shadowless Deinonychus a while back without looking terribly haggard, the other Shadowless Deinonychus didn't continue throwing themselves to him to be slaughtered.

While the trio and Zi waited, the members of Glory Party were also waiting.

In their minds, once this fight nears the end and in their most weary state, the Zi who baited them here would show herself.

Alas, their surroundings remained a plain of deathly silence. There wasn't a single hint of abnormal movements.

Both parties were in a deadlock. The only difference, was the monitoring facility the trio were equipped with to survey their actions. On the contrary, the opposing party was purely waiting……

After tarrying for an hour, another of Sheyan's deliberately deployed hint took effect, as the Glory Party members finally lost their patience and left successively; rushing off to another direction.

*******************

The scorching sun ascended up high, casting its fiery rays down onto the earth. The temperature rapidly climbed, as creatures of the Metropolis of Death begun their daily hunting livelihood; either to seek for food, or to become another's food. Such was their destiny.

Sheyan released a huge yawn as he lied down on a camp bed. After gulping down several mouthfuls of Nonfu Spring mineral water, he sheepishly mumbled.

"I'm taking a rest first, don't disturb me."

Reef and Mogensha exchanged puzzled glances. Instead, Zi's vision darkened with annoyance and implored.

"So what you meant by venting frustrations, is taking an afternoon nap in this ghost town?"

Sheyan shrugged his shoulders and replied.

"Ah, that is why I asked you about your mission deadline. Since there's one week, then snoozing for a day wouldn't hurt……"

Zi was totally speechless. She stood them dumbfounded before turning her attention to Mogensha, and demanded one word at a time.

"Let me ride your arachnid Overlord now! You guys aren't willing to fight, but I am!"

Brother Black reluctantly replied.

"Most excellent Zi…that arachnid Overlord belongs to boss, I have no rights. Besides, riding an arachnid Overlord in broad daylight…we'll be shredded to pieces by those Pterosaurs without even reaching a kilometre."

Zi shivered uncontrollably from anger, as she bluntly stomped off to a corner of the tent, and frustratedly glared at the tent wall.

At this moment, she made a resolution. If she ever got the opportunity, she would immediately leave these group of brats. Otherwise, if she didn't die by the hands of Glory Party, she would be angered to death by these brats first.

*********

Time swiftly trickled away. In the blink of an eye, the sun was sinking in the west.

After some rest, Sheyan felt mentally invigorated. He executed a carefree stretch and called out to Reef and Brother Black.

"It's about time. I feel there'll be people arriving soon. Not many though, but definitely one deeply trusted by Zeus and the other, Yuan Zhan."
