Reincarnation of the Strongest Healer

The time was less than 15 minutes, and at long last, Xu Feng and Floral Witch’s group found the exit path. It was a narrow passage concealed within the soil.

”Seems like someone already passed the third round.” Floral Witch pursed her lips.

She could identify some of the soil that had been stepped on before, and it should be left behind by some players. Moreover, the players were quite insidious in purposely concealing the exit path.

Had it not been for the micro search conducted by Carmen’s voidling, it would have been hard to say that they could discover the exit path.

”One really cannot underestimate others,” Carmen commented. She had thought they would be the first to pass, given their cautious nature. Yet in the blink of an eye, it was discovered that some other players not only passed the round, but they had also concealed the passing round from others.

Xu Feng remained silent. ’Such tracking and tracing skills. What a pity that they’re not my people.’

He was indeed jealous and envious of the opposing parties. As much as Xu Feng planned or tried to scheme, he was ultimately limited by his capability.

He wasn’t some jack of all trades who could do everything by himself.

Instead, he had to take things slowly and tread carefully to stabilize his foundation.

”Alright, let’s not comment further and leave.” Floral Witch clasped her hands and said. The current field was still chaotic, and screams could be heard from all sides. She truly didn’t want to become implicated in someone else’s misery.

Naturally, nobody had any disagreement with that.

As they started to walk into the narrow passage, Xu Feng scattered a few crusted herbs at the entrance.

His action was discreet, but it still couldn’t escape Carmen’s eyes, who had been focused on him constantly.

”What did you scatter?” She whispered softly to him. The two of them purposely lagged behind with the pretext that they were immune to the berserk elephant’s rage.

By staying behind, they could ensure that they wouldn’t be attacked from the back all of a sudden.

Such a reason was very far-fetched and somewhat unbelievable, but Floral Witch ultimately agreed. Since the exit path up ahead of them was the way to pass the third round, she didn’t have to worry about being tricked or schemed against.

Like what could they possibly scheme if they could just rush ahead to pass the third round?

”Why aren’t you answering me?” Carmen raised an eyebrow in confusion.

To her astonishment, though, she saw Xu Feng suddenly extend his hand and wave it around. His action was a complete mimic of her action toward Floral Witch.

She quickly frowned and hissed, ”I’m going to quit the guild.”

”Sure, the guild list can be opened once the trial is over.” Xu Feng smiled lightly and responded. He even instructed her on how to leave the guild successfully.

Just when Carmen was about to flare up at his coldhearted attitude, Xu Feng suddenly leaned close to her.

Her body instantly heated up, and she was dumbfounded by his behavior.

However, she quickly calmed down when she heard his words, which were very low.

”We’re still being watched. I’ll answer your questions when we’re in a more private area.”

Her eyes widened in disbelief. ’How could I not detect anything?’

Although she was unaware of being spied on, much less how the opponent did it, she didn’t doubt Xu Feng’s words.

Seeing how serious he was, she was certain that he wasn’t joking around.

Despite the initial shock, Carmen quickly composed herself and behaved as if there was nothing amiss. She knew that she couldn’t alarm the other party and decided to act very naturally.

Xu Feng was satisfied with her quick thinking.

He continued to converse about some miscellaneous things with her while secretly thinking about who could be this capable.

’It seems like the Northern Plane’s players really can’t be underestimated. To think they had managed to forge a spying device at this stage.’ If it weren’t for the Mana Resonance Talisman in his sleeve, then he wouldn’t have detected a spying device being placed in this narrow passage.

The Mana Resonance Talisman could detect mana, and the spying device had traces of mana, which resulted in him discovering it.

A spying device was a high-level crafting item. Not only were the materials extremely difficult to obtain, but the blacksmiths themselves had to be very experienced.

Just one or two tries would be impossible to succeed. In fact, not even 5+ tries could be possible unless their luck was out of this world and they managed to defeat the low 30% success.

Everyone knew the percentage was a scam when it came to gambling. Even if one had an 80% success rate of crafting one, they would always somehow end up losing because of the 20% margin.

Xu Feng knew this very much because he was precisely that unlucky individual who would lose even if there was a 99% success. That 1% of failure would always haunt him.

Nevertheless, Xu Feng kept the spying device issue to himself. After all, it was best not to alert the enemies and feign ignorance.

Right now, he appeared to be on the light for the enemies, but he was actually in the dark, secretly investigating who was behind such an item.

No matter who they were, Xu Feng knew they must have been a formidable foe—someone he could definitely not underestimate.

Information warfare was sometimes more dangerous than actual war.

No, it was more correct to say that information warfare was way deadlier than an actual war. Just one slip-up could easily change the tide of the battle.

While Xu Feng’s mind was filled with this problem, they soon saw the light at the end of the path.

After exiting the narrow passage with Carmen, a system prompt appeared in front of them.

System Notification: Congratulations on passing the third round! Due to your magnanimous behavior, additional points would be granted and depicted in later rounds!
