"What? He was left behind to cover the retreat? " When Wang Yan heard that Li Yunmu was surrounded by a group of giant ants and was unable to break out of their encirclement, she almost fainted on the spot.
But there weren't many people who reacted like Wang Yan did.
When Zheng Quan heard this, his heart dimmed slightly. Li Yunmu was a loyal general with great character and ample potential, but he had surprisingly lost a general who could add bricks and tiles to his faction in the future.
Zheng Quan felt pain in his heart and felt pity, but that was all he could do.
At the very least, with his personality, regardless of who it was, he could only feel pity for the person who was sacrificed, but he wouldn't be affected by it.
Luo Honghua breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that Li Yunmu was dead for sure.
As long as he died, Wang Yan would belong to her, which was only a matter of time. Moreover, without Li Yunmu, Wang Yan would return to her previous state of control.
Li Yunmu dying at the hands of the insect monsters on the island was the best outcome.
This way, at least she wouldn't incur the hatred of Wang Yan for plotting against Li Yunmu. This was the reason why although Luo Honghua wanted to get rid of Li Yunmu, she had misgivings about taking action.
As for the reactions of Zhang Yuan, Liu Yangwei, and Lei Yun?
Although they didn't clap their hands and cheer loudly, their expressions were extremely cheerful.
A powerful member of Zheng Quan's side had died. This was undoubtedly a step closer to Zhang Yuan's goal.
As a matter of fact, Zhang Yuan didn't want to divide the island in the slightest bit. He didn't want to share even the slightest bit of benefits with anyone else.
Step by step, he would destroy Zheng Quan's faction, then slowly nibble away at the members of his own faction. Finally, he would scheme to eliminate Liu Yangwei and Lei Yun. This was Zhang Yuan's final goal.
An undiscovered alternate dimension meant that the entire dimension was ownerless. How could Zhang Yuan possibly share such a huge benefit and secret with others?
"Death is good, truly a good death. This way, the beauty will be mine, and the entire island will be mine." Zhang Yuan was already dreaming in his heart.
His gaze couldn't help but fall on Wang Yan, who seemed to have fainted. Then, he looked at Zhang Ru and He Miao, who were equally sad.
"Well, Wang Yan naturally has to stay. Otherwise, it would be too boring for me to live alone on this island. Haha, this Zhang Ru is also quite pretty and sexy. I must keep her as a plaything. As for He Miao? Alright, although he was a little inferior, and he was a little cold, he had a different kind of charm …
Tsk, tsk, we must keep these three women here. As for Luo Honghua, she can just die … "Zhang Yuan's mind was in a trance, but Liu Yangwei, who was standing beside him, also glanced at Zhang Yang and Lei Yun vaguely.
With one look, one could tell that he was full of evil tricks.
However, Zheng Quan's sudden words jolted everyone awake from their sweet dreams.
"Everyone, we've encountered a big problem. Since all the creatures in the jungle have been enlarged, even the ants have become so threatening. How are we supposed to reach the center of the island?"
He had reached the center of the island!
Everyone's goal was to reach the center of the island, because there was a boundary stele at the center of every dimensional plane.
Only the first person to discover the island and rush to the center of the island would obtain the boundary stele's recognition. Only then would he become the master of the plane.
Although this kind of recognition was far from the ideal of becoming the master of a heavenly world, at the very least, after obtaining the recognition of the plane's master, all the creatures of the plane would regard you as their master.
In other words, if you obtained the boundary stele's recognition, then regardless of whether it was the colony of giant ants or even all the creatures of the island, they would obey your orders.
Naturally, even then, you wouldn't be safe.
If a formidable external force invaded, then the difference in strength between the two sides would be too great. The enemy could kill all the origin lifeforms controlled by you and occupy the entire plane.
Zhang Yuan and the others were naturally aware of this matter. Although Zheng Quan didn't know about it, the guidance he had received was the same.
He had to be the first to rush to the center of the plane and obtain the boundary stele's recognition.
This was the ultimate goal of his guidance.
Li Yunmu hadn't been aware of this matter before, but not long ago, he had learned from the sea breeze whale the crucial secret of how to occupy the entire plane.
At that moment, after absorbing three flux binding pills, regardless of whether it was his physical strength or flux energy, both of them had recovered to their peak.
Li Yun, Li Feng, and the other shadows had obtained nearly half an hour's worth of time for him.
Because of this, Li De and Li Mei, the two shadows, had died once.
However, Li Yunmu wasn't worried about experience points. As long as the shadows didn't die more than four times in a day, he would have sufficient experience points to resurrect himself.
After more than half an hour, the eight shadows had killed nearly three thousand giant ants, but the number of ants on the island seemed to be endless.
Their companions were still pouring in from all directions, and they were rushing forward one after the other. The scene was extremely terrifying!
This couldn't go on!
When Li Yunmu discovered the situation, he instantly felt a headache coming on. Although the shadows could synchronize with his absolute defense and could resurrect for a long time, the number of ants he could kill wasn't high enough.
But regardless of whether he killed too many giant ants or continued wasting time like this, it wasn't a solution.
The next instant, he decided to change the current situation.
"System, release the ten dimensional space eyes and let them assist you in finding the best route to the center of the island. We need to break through the encirclement," Li Yunmu suddenly commanded the system.
[Warning host, there should be a large number of flying insects hidden in the enormous jungle of the island. If all the dimensional space eyes are released at this time, it is highly likely that they will suffer heavy losses,] the system promptly reminded him.
"I don't care about that much. Compared to occupying a dimensional space, the loss of dimensional space eyes is only a small matter," Li Yunmu said without the slightest bit of hesitation.
[Alright, the order will be carried out immediately.]
Following the system's affirmative reply, the next instant, the ten dimensional space eyes were released. One by one, they rushed into the sky and quickly entered stealth mode.
They all received the system's command to advance toward the center of the island to scout.
At the same time, with the help of the ten dimensional space eyes, the map transmitted back by the system grew larger and larger. Gradually, a clear map of the island appeared in Li Yunmu's consciousness sea.
[Reporting, the third dimensional space eye has been destroyed by a group of six-winged flying insects. They have extremely keen senses and can discover the concealed dimensional space eyes.]
