Sheyan could clearly see a large amount of blood flowing on the ground, almost forming a vast ocean. When he stepped on it, the blood almost reached his ankle. Due to the special properties of the blood, it was currently in a viscous semi-coagulated state, so there was a strong resistance when he lifted his foot.
It was almost certain that it was impossible for a single human to have so much blood. To create such a large pool of blood, it would require the blood of at least dozens of humans. Contestants had strong healing and hemostasis abilities, so unless they died, it was even more impossible for them to produce so much blood.
In this dangerous wasteland, such a large pool of fresh blood was naturally infinitely attractive. A large number of dangerous insects and small animals could be seen crawling over, greedily licking the rare nutrients. Just a little bit closer would cause a "Peng" sound to be heard, giving a feeling of covering the sky and the sun.
In this large puddle of blood, there were also large clumps of dark red lumps. They were piled up together in a very messy manner, giving off a very large feeling. From afar, there was an unpleasant fishy smell that assailed the nostrils. It was not difficult to identify that these were intestines or something similar.
Ramtas had already returned to normal by now. When it saw so many poisonous insects and small animals attracted to it, it let out a happy snort. It raised its staff and cast a [Nature's Shock], then bent down to pick up the unconscious creatures one by one as if it was picking up jelly beans. It chewed and chewed, causing juices to splatter all over the place.
Sheyan took a step forward and found a piece of black fur floating in the pool of blood in front of him. The fur on the fur looked like black and hard steel needles, and there was even some flesh attached to it. He picked it up and threw it to Cyborg No. 1. Soon, the analysis results came out. The owner of this piece of fur should be the Ferocious Wolverine.
Pokan signaled for Sheyan to come over. He and his cyborgs found the unconscious Ronnie six or seven meters away from them.
The injuries Ronnie suffered would have been fatal to an ordinary human. His neck was fractured, and there was a terrible bite wound on the right side of his chest. Even a few of his ribs had been picked out. The injuries were obviously accompanied by excessive blood loss.
But for a powerful Awakener like Ronnie, such an injury was not fatal. As long as there were no external factors affecting him, Ronnie could still survive and slowly recover.
There were also a few strange craters in the vicinity, as if they had been smashed by something huge and heavy from the sky. They were several meters deep and five to six square meters wide. However, there was nothing in the crater or nearby. It was as if it had been created out of thin air.
The current situation was very strange, but it could also be said that Ronnie was very lucky to not die here. Logically speaking, the Berserk Wolverine could have killed him with another swipe of its claws, but Ronnie was still alive!
After a series of investigations, the three cyborgs discussed the matter together and finally restored the most likely truth of the matter.
Ronnie and the Ferocious Wolverine chased each other all the way here. They once again engaged in a fierce battle. In the end, the Ferocious Wolverine won. However, at that moment, a huge and irresistible external force descended and killed the Ferocious Wolverine. Then, it tore the Ferocious Wolverine apart in the air! This led to the formation of the pool of blood in front of them, as well as the origin of the fallen organs.
Then, the irresistible external force left with the Berserk Wolverine's corpse in satisfaction, like a satisfied housewife who had just finished shopping in the supermarket …. Perhaps the Berserk Wolverine did not have a human on its menu, or perhaps the smell on Ronnie's body was too strong to arouse its appetite, or perhaps the Berserk Wolverine just did not want to eat a human today. In any case, Ronnie, who was about to become food, survived, while the Berserk Wolverine, who was supposed to enjoy its meal, was reduced to a meal on the plate.
As for why the Berserk Wolverine did not leave any traces behind, it could probably be attributed to its biological ability.
Sheyan also recalled the fear that Ramtas felt from the bottom of his heart earlier, so he agreed with Pocan's theory. If the threat of the beasts on Uplos was very terrifying, they would often be divided into distinct spheres of influence. The idiot Berserk Wolverine must have been too preoccupied with lust and accidentally entered the territory of one of the behemoths, so it became food.
With that in mind, Sheyan immediately left without saying a word. He felt that he could not pin his life on the fact that the creature did not have the habit of taking a walk or eating dessert after a meal. When Pocan saw Sheyan running away in panic like a stray dog, even if he could not figure out the reason, he would definitely run away without saying a word. As for the reason, it was not too late to figure it out while running.
After the two ran for a few hundred meters, Sheyan suddenly turned his head and asked.
"Where's Ronnie?"
Pocan, who was panting, immediately answered in an aggrieved tone.
"I'm just a mage-type contestant. How can I carry him?"
Sheyan was speechless.
"… .that's not a good idea."
After some bargaining, Pocan still ordered his only cyborg to run over and carry Ronnie back. It couldn't be helped. Pocan was closer to Hedi Curry and the others after all. Poor Pocan's cyborg was already operating at full capacity to begin with, and now it was on the verge of collapse. It had to drink a bottle of nutrient solution every kilometer it walked, and it was still operating at full capacity. From time to time, electric sparks would spurt out from its knee joint. It could break down at any time.
Sheyan's three cyborgs would look at Pocan's cyborg from time to time with a strange, relieved and greedy look in their eyes. They were obviously looking forward to Pocan's cyborg collapsing so that they could swarm up and dismember it. More precisely, disassemble it ….
***
Party Ace was definitely heading back to the place where Ronnie lit the pyre. The thick smoke rising from the pyre was so thick that it could be seen from almost the entire plain. The other contestants, at least those with a bit of brains, would definitely move in that direction.
By the time Sheyan and Pocan arrived at the bonfire, two more people were already there. They were Paul, who could control metal to modify aircraft, and Vassily, one of Azsa's supporters.
In fact, although Paul had made a lot of money when he was modifying the machines and was in the limelight, it would be a big mistake to underestimate his combat ability because of that. At this time, he had used his ability to control metal to summon a powerful war metal mechanical golem. The golem was more than three meters tall, and its body was covered in bronze full-body heavy armor. The armor was clearly engraved with arcane patterns and magic circles. The weapon it held was a heavy Babylonian battering ram!
To be honest, the combat ability of this metal war mechanical puppet was obviously far above that of Ramtas. Even the Ferocious Wolverine would not be a match for it.
Vassily, on the other hand, was an arms maniac. In a short period of time, he had already made some simple modifications to the area around the bonfire. Three circular tracks had been laid out, and five automatic machine guns were running back and forth on the tracks. In addition, he had also buried five smart mines within 100 meters of the bonfire, set up a circle of high-voltage power grids, and set up a holographic scanning system that covered the ground and the air.
Wherever these two people were, the place was almost impregnable. Vassily was an expert in positional warfare, and could set up a defensive line with amazing defensive power in a short period of time. However, their weaknesses were also extremely obvious – they lacked mobility and long-range attack ability.
Once the enemy had a high-lethality and long-range attack mode similar to that of a sniper, they could only passively take a beating. In addition, if they were ambushed during their journey, that would be the last thing they wanted to see.
Obviously, in the current perilous environment, these two people were quite pleased to see the two of them – oh, to be precise, the three of them. Although Vassily was on Azsa's side, he put aside his differences and took out a set of life-saving equipment worth 2,000 utility points for Ronnie to use. With the life-saving equipment, Ronnie's injuries were expected to be healed in three hours.
Pokan, who had the title of 'Topographical Modeller', effortlessly transformed the originally low-lying camp. The earth elements quickly condensed, melted, and kneaded to form a high ground. The soil continued to spread and condense in the air, forming a solid fortification and a habitable battle fortress.
Although Sheyan did not do anything, when Pokan introduced him, he said that he was the one who took the lead in rescuing Ronnie. The fact that he took the initiative to save Ronnie's life naturally made Pokan look at him in a different light. After all, no one knew when they would need to be rescued in this godforsaken place. Of course, the most important thing was that Sheyan also gave a bottle of his own concoction to the three people present.
Truthfully speaking, the three of them didn't regard the medicine that Sheyan casually handed over to them as anything important. They only casually received the medicine because of its faint tri-coloured radiance and its excellent appearance. But after receiving it, they were thoroughly astonished. "That's right. That's right.
"Increases all attributes of the drinker by 10%, and the base attribute increase will not be less than 8 points!!???"
"The potion has a validity period of one hour and lasts for 24 hours after drinking it?"
"What the hell? Is your concoction an S-rank ability?"
"Damn it, the best potion our party's apothecary can concoct is a potion that increases critical strike rate by 2%, but reduces HP by 33% and lasts for only 10 minutes. He should really learn from you!"
"Sigh, it's a pity that the validity period of the potion is too short. It's only one hour. Otherwise, we'd be rich if we sold it."
