Damn it! Let's smash the darkness together!-Chapter 1226 - 136: (Request for Monthly Ticket)_3

As he spoke, the men and women he referred to lifted their hoods one by one, revealing fanatical and bizarre gazes as they quietly stared at Xu Shu.

Quietly, staring.

"I..."

Xu Shu was just about to speak.

However, at this moment, Xie Xiaochan suddenly appeared from the side. 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

She shielded Xu Shu behind her like a mother hen protecting her chick—although standing next to each other, Xu Shu and she looked like Beauty and the Beast—and said coldly, "We don’t need to, go find someone else."

As she spoke, Yan Huoxing and the others came over, surrounding these members of the "Anthropomorphic Treasure Hunting Team."

In the piercing gaze of a group of third-tier experts, the leading man first maintained a strange, aloof expression as he glanced around. Then he suddenly squeezed out a friendly smile and said, "Okay, okay, we’ll leave immediately."

He spoke while retreating, finally turning around to run, trying to leave with his teammates.

However, with a thud, this group did not manage to leave successfully.

Because Xu Shu stood in their path like a solid wall, bouncing everyone back.

The leading man hastily said, "We only wanted to team up, with good intentions..."

Xu Shu, with a half-smile, replied, "I have good intentions, too. I’ll join."

"This..." The leading man was stunned, looking at Xu Shu, then at Xu Shu’s other teammates, momentarily unsure whether to nod or shake his head.

Xie Xiaochan furrowed her brows, gave Xu Shu a look, and whispered, "What are you up to? I’m telling you, these guys aren’t normal. When I previously entered Death Report Ridge, I encountered them. The way they spoke then is exactly the same as now."

Xu Shu nodded, also whispering back, "Got it, but that was a matter the second-tier Xie Xiaochan didn’t dare to explore. Now that we’re third-tier, if we still don’t dare to check it out, then isn’t our breakthrough in rank wasted? Besides, it’s not like we’re forcefully entering a church."

"Uh." Xie Xiaochan was momentarily speechless.

After a while, she smiled and said, "You make a good point, so let’s take a look. What do you all think?"

She asked, looking towards the others.

Lu Bingwei’s eyes flickered and coolly said first, "Anyway, there’s nothing else, let’s go take a look."

Gu Yue Ming stood silently beside Xu Shu, using her actions to express her attitude—she cast a "Nu Wa’s Blessing" on Xu Shu, making his head glow with a greenish hue.

Yan Huoxing also said, "Just right, I’m actually curious too, want to go see."

Seeing this situation, the rest nodded and followed along.

A group of third-tier experts surrounded the Anthropomorphic Treasure Hunting Team like a pride of lions watching a flock of sheep.

"Well, alright then."

The man had a few drops of cold sweat trickling down his forehead; by this point, he had no choice but to agree.

However, he seemed very astute, quickly saying, "Some friends here have also decided to join us, please, please follow me!"

With that, he led the way, half-walking, half-running ahead.

Soon, under the lead of the Anthropomorphic Treasure Hunting Team, Xu Shu and the others were guided from the left corner of the courtyard to a garden at the back right.

The place was adorned with a profusion of colorful flowers, and white jade carvings of medieval Roman-style domed arched pavilions were scattered throughout.

In one of the pavilions, a group of men and women were sitting and waiting.

These people exuded a powerful and sharp aura, not fitting with the other anthropomorphic figures, carrying a strong murderous air.

With just one glance, Xu Shu could discern that this was a team of transcendents also here to explore Death Report Ridge, and they were not novices but mid-sequence transcendents, all third-tier!

"Are these the people the anthropomorphics were referring to?"

"No wonder it’s a large relic; third-tier experts are everywhere, more than carrots in the field!"

Seeing the man walk towards the pavilion as if seeking help, Xu Shu silently remarked, then shifted his gaze, quickly scanning over the six people inside.

The tall and muscular one on the left must be a "Dragon Elephant", seems a bit careless, doesn’t even carry a mermaid with him...

The woman behind the "Dragon Elephant" was quite beautiful, dressed in a Taoist robe, she looked like a "Heavenly Master"? Or maybe a "Heavenly Destiny Mysterious Woman".

The sultry woman dressed like a Black Widow with a foothold trap at her waist was definitely a "Fallen Apostle", damn nutcase.

This foreign girl is quite something, carrying an oar, clearly a "boatman", no need to say more.

And this one...

Whoa, really?
