The warm sunlight, golden lawns, and the battlefield on the edge of the planet are filled with vitality everywhere. If only there were no battles. Seated on the black panther, Zhang Xiaobo began his daydreams.

The agile black panther dashed through the wind... like a meteor lightning through the wild, whoosh whoosh whoosh...

Every time its four limbs touched the ground, a slight dent was left in the fertile soil, showing that the transformation increased not only the Blade Warrior's weight but also his combat strength significantly.

"They're coming."

Minutes later, as the trio reached a piece of forest, the Blade Warrior suddenly stopped, startling the fat man on his back. Fortunately, Yita was in front, otherwise he would have been thrown off.

However, Yita's delicate figure staggered from the impact of the fat man.

Zhang Xiaobo, his senses heightened, asked vigilantly, "How far are they from us?"

"Not far, roughly around three thousand meters. I can faintly smell their scent."

"Wow, they're still so far." Zhang Xiaobo sighed in relief. "At such a distance, those guys shouldn't be able to detect us, right? Why aren't we pursuing?"

"Because they've also stopped. To be safe, it's better to be cautious."

"They've suddenly stopped too? Could they have found us?"

"It's basically impossible. Except for top warriors, such as people, can't extend their Mental Power that far. As far as I know, Angelina, a psychic superpowered person, can only detect a little over a thousand meters, not to mention a bunch of newbies. Hmm, besides that..."

"What?"

"I've also discovered four different scents. Yita, you should have noticed them earlier, right?"

"Yes."

The fat man was shocked, "Even Yita has noticed them."

Yita explained expressionlessly, "Due to body structure factors, normally my detection ability is even greater than Mr. Blade's."

"Why don't you just detect them directly?"

"Those people had already gone far. Tracking with scent is Mr. Blade's Leopard Form ability. I don't have the related configuration within me."

"Wait, Blade Sister, you said besides those four people, you found four more scents—are they our people?"

"No." The black panther shook its head humanly, saying, "Those scents are very unfamiliar, definitely not our people. They might not even be recorded in my database. As you know, many teams participating come from the civilian population, never heard of them, and now it's hard to confirm their identity and strength."

"I see..."

The fat man suddenly hesitated. He's not truly afraid of death, at least to some extent, and in this special occasion, as the most experienced veteran, he deeply understands a principle: Two shells can't strike the same crater. Undoubtedly, following behind another team is the safest. Although there appears to be some risk in tracking, the team in front is essentially their pathfinder. That's why Zhang Xiaobo strongly advocated tracking them.

Unexpectedly, just after tracking for a short while, they encountered an unidentified team. Without understanding the depth of the other party, rushing forward is absolutely not Zhang Xiaobo's character. But if they don't move, they can't grasp the other's identity.

The fat man's face rarely turned serious as he said, "We have two choices now."

"Which two?"

"First: Hold our position, wait for the two teams to react, and join them once they act."

"And the second?"

"The second is to approach, observe, and gather firsthand information. Doing so carries some risk. Right now, understanding enemy intelligence is far more important than risking a bit."

"Oh? Why is that?"

"Only by following a strong team will we not be caught off guard in case of encountering the Titan Faeries. While this may involve risks, it's better than being unable to retreat in sudden situations. Assuming you follow a strong team, they would at least buy us time to escape."

"Hmm, this doesn't sound like something a coward like you would say, but that's a good analysis. Let's go."

To his surprise, just as the Blade Warrior said this, the fat man suddenly backed out, "I say, Blade Sister, make sure you cautiously probe and don't get detected."

"It's unlikely, but this sort of thing is hard to say unless the team over there possesses a very powerful psychic superpowered person. Otherwise, detection is impossible."

"In what level are you referring to?"

"Hmm... in terms of coverage of mental waves, they can't be lesser than Angelina by one level, like Hell's Gate's Locke, Bergheide's Duolin, Valan's illusion mentor Michelle, or even Zana's Mengdie. These people's perception abilities are very strong, perhaps the three thousand meters might be sensed."

"Then..." The fat man found it difficult, "Isn't what we're doing a bit of a gamble?"

"I'll admit it involves a gamble. As you said, not taking risks will eventually lead to greater risks. I'm considering this too; after all, no one wants to die suddenly, right? Yita, what do you think?"

Yita replied in a deep voice, "Considering the Titan Faeries, long-term risk-taking is better than future high-risk scenarios. Of course, that's my personal opinion."

"You're right, fat man. Any objections?"

"None."

"Then let's go, hold tight."

"Wait!" The fat man suddenly called to stop, "Blade Sister, let me do some mental preparation."

"Tch, you lazy donkey." Blade Warrior disregarded Zhang Xiaobo's feelings, and with a steel-whip-like tail, slapped the fat man's rear, then sprang forward.

Distance two thousand five hundred meters...

Distance two thousand meters...

Distance one thousand meters...

Closer...

At this time, the Blade Warrior lowered his posture completely, switching movements to a crouching stalking gait, like a spirit cat, resembling a silent phantom swiftly brushing through the depths of the forest, trying to hide the three bodies as much as possible in the shadows of the thick foliage.

Similarly, Zhang Xiaobo and Yita also tacitly lay on the panther's back, slowing their breaths and simultaneously observing the surroundings.

"Wait!"

The fat man was just about to speak when his survival instinct instantly alerted him not to make any sound, so he gripped the panther tightly.

The Blade Warrior's actions paused briefly, and it turned to look at the fat man.

"Don't move."

Zhang Xiaobo nearly whispered to the Blade Warrior, explaining why he called the stop. Just a moment ago, a coincidence caused sunlight to reflect, making him faintly glimpse something flicker ahead.

"Fat man, what are you saying?" Blade Warrior asked quietly.

"I'm saying there's likely a trap. If guessed correctly, that thing might be..."
