Chapter 412 Have The Dark Apparitions Gone Out For Shopping?
Level one and two restricted zones would be regularly cleared by humans, but the level three and four zones were different. Level three and four restricted zones were the dark apparitions’ territory. Dark apparition garrisons had already appeared further into the level-three restricted zone.
Their target was the no. 56 garrison in the level-three restricted zone.
Along the way, the atmosphere was a little oppressive.
“Are you angry?” Kong Li glanced at w.a.n.g Teng and teased him.
“Go away. I’m not close with you.” w.a.n.g Teng turned his head.
“Aiya, as a man, you mustn’t be so narrow-minded.” Kong Li inched over shamelessly.
“Haha.” w.a.n.g Teng scoffed.
“Three Force dishes meal,” Kong Li suggested.
“Do you think I look like someone that can be bought over with food?” w.a.n.g Teng wasn’t moved.
“Four meals!” Kong Li added.
“Six meals, one from a Force chef master.” Kong Li gritted her teeth. This was a fortune.
“Deal.” A smile immediately appeared on his face. “As expected of my senior, you’re so generous.”
“You’re brutal.” Kong Li was speechless.
“Small case, small case,” w.a.n.g Teng smiled and replied. “Childis.h.!.+” Yuwen Xuan snorted.
“Hey, Major Yuwen, aren’t you interested in Force dishes?” w.a.n.g Teng teased him.
“Not at all,” Yuwen Xuan replied coldly with a stern face before ignoring the two.
w.a.n.g Teng started discussing excitedly with Kong Li and planned the six meals properly. Yuwen Xuan frowned. He wasn’t used to their interaction.
This was a serious and dangerous mission, but they turned it into a delicious food forum. How irritating.
Niu Li smiled, but he didn’t say anything.
He didn’t care about the process as long as it didn’t affect the mission.
At around 2 pm, the four of them successfully arrived near the no. 56 garrison of the dark apparitions.
They hid in a small hill and looked at the garrison in the distance. The dark apparition’s garrison was entirely different from the human garrisons. Their garrisons were crude, made of large rocks, and were pitch-black. In the dark, it would be hard to notice them.
The architecture was special too. w.a.n.g Teng didn’t know how to describe it. It was rough, evil-looking, and exaggerated…
This was the first time he saw a Darkland-style building. He was curious, so he sized it up uncontrollably.
Suddenly, he realized, to his surprise, that aside from the low-level dark apparitions wandering around the garrison, there weren’t any signs of high-level dark apparitions. He couldn’t help but look at Niu Li. He asked through a voice transmission, “Have the dark apparition gone out for shopping?”
Niu Li stared at w.a.n.g Teng, and a vein popped out on his forehead. What kind of strange thoughts does this guy have in his mind?
Go out shopping?! Can you read the atmosphere and stop acting like an idiot when you should be serious? He took a deep breath before replying to him through voice transmission, “Dark apparitions like the dark. Even high-level dark apparitions with intelligence don’t like to move around in the day.”
w.a.n.g Teng noticed that Niu Li said ‘don’t like’ and not ‘they can’t.’ No wonder these low-level dark apparitions were able to move freely in the day.
He looked at the sky and said, “This area is covered by dark clouds and saturated with dark Force. There’s no difference between day and night, right?”
“To them, the day is the day. The sun won’t disappear, so they will still get irritated by it.”
“Do you know the reason?”
“It’s probably because the sun has changed too.” Niu Li pondered for some time before he opened his mouth. “After all, according to various legends from different countries, the sun is an ultimate Yang object.”
“Are you telling me that the legends are true?”. w.a.n.g Teng asked curiously.
“I don’t mean that. However, the legends originate from somewhere. Maybe our ancestors saw something,” Niu Li said in a meaningful tone.
w.a.n.g Teng believed him. After all, this era couldn’t be inferred using common sense. Humans possessed frightening power. In the eyes of the ancient people, they were no different from G.o.ds and devils. However, he still had some queries.
“Is this a guess, or did you find related evidence?”
“What do you think?” Niu Li looked at him and smiled.
Seeing his reaction, w.a.n.g Teng knew that he wouldn’t be able to get an answer today.
Were these people all the same?
“Actually, I don’t know much. I only heard a word or two.” Niu Li shook his head.
w.a.n.g Teng didn’t probe further. He activated his Spiritual Sight and scanned the garrison. As expected, he saw a few thick b.a.l.l.s of dark Force.

“Three 7-star soldier-level dark apparitions!” They didn’t move immediately. Instead, they waited until night dawned. Through the dark clouds in the sky, they saw a moon hanging in the air, scattering its silver-white glow on the earth. The four soldiers ate the rations they bought and spoke to each other using voice transmission to pa.s.s the time.
However, their attention was all on the no. 56 garrison below.
At approximately 10 pm, they finally sensed some movements in the garrison.
There were three figures in the distance. They conversed for some time before heading in different directions.
Niu Li frowned. He gave his order. “Follow one each. I’ll stay here.”
“Yes,” w.a.n.g Teng and the others replied immediately. “w.a.n.g Teng, will you be alright?” Niu Li glanced at w.a.n.g Teng and asked again. “Don’t worry. I won’t die.”
Niu Li nodded and didn’t say anything else.
The three soldiers chose a direction each and executed their hiding skills as they followed the dark apparitions.
“Don’t die!”
Kong Li’s voice entered his ears. w.a.n.g Teng’s gaze s.h.i.+mmered, but he didn’t turn his head. He was already a distance away.
He executed his Wave Invisibility Skill and covered himself with dark Force, disappearing into the cold wind under the night sky.
If he only used dark Force, he might get discovered by the dark apparition. However, with the addition of the Wave Invisibility Skill, his concealing ability increased many folds. w.a.n.g Teng believed that he wouldn’t be found out as long as he was more careful. He followed behind the dark apparition, keeping some distance between them.
The other party was a dark apparition he had never seen before. It was tall and lofty, at least three meters in height. There was a pair of huge antlers on its head that twirled backward. This was a weird monster with a deer head and human body.
Its limbs were muscular and thick, and it had a pair of wings on its back. It moved extremely fast. There was also a bone-like scorpion tail behind it.
It looks a little ugly. w.a.n.g Teng wondered to himself.
After some time, he saw the dark apparition das.h.i.+ng into a forest below. Then, cries of agony from wild beasts were heard. w.a.n.g Teng hid afar and saw the deer-head human-body dark apparition catch a huge star beast. It furiously bit and tore the flesh off the beast. It was a terrifying scene.
It came out to eat. w.a.n.g Teng shook his head speechlessly. He thought that it had some secrets, but this was it?
Half an hour later, the dark apparition went back to the garrison. w.a.n.g Teng followed it and came back to the hill where Niu Li was hiding.
Kong Li and Yuwen Xuan were back too. They reported the situation on their side and discovered that the three dark apparitions seemed to have gone out for a meal. They didn’t have any other actions.
