Before he could finish speaking, a thick, long tail suddenly whipped out from the lake.
*Bang!*
The tail struck Matsushita, sending him flying backward.
Meichuan Ku, seeing the figure hurtling toward him, instinctively flattened himself against the ground.
Fortunately, Matsushita flew directly over his head.
After flying about ten meters, *Boom!*
With a deafening explosion, Matsushita was reduced to fragments by a grenade.
"Ugh... damn, are the Japs this unlucky?"
"Hahahaha... sorry, I'm dying of laughter."
"Holy shit, the unlucky bastard! That monster is too clever!"
"Not just clever, it's downright contemptuous! Didn't even show its head, just went straight for the tail swipe!"
"Case closed: B-Class or higher monsters have intelligence!"
Battlefield Notification: Sakura Kingdom Guardian Matsushita has been killed by the B-Class wild monster, the High-Spined Mosasaur.
As soon as the notification appeared, the Guardians were left speechless.
"This isn't how you deliver supplies!" George of Eagle Country cursed. "Another one down in just a few minutes!"
"WTF! The Sakura Kingdom actually dared to attack!"
"Commander, it looks like it's just ahead!" David checked his coordinates and compared them to his map. They matched perfectly.
"Alright, we're finally here!"
Eagle Country personnel usually had vehicles everywhere, but here they were stuck on foot. Fortunately, their Red Talent had boosted their explosive power and endurance to the max.
They raced ahead and were among the first to arrive. But mocking voices from behind made them wary.
"Haha, isn't this the little Eagle Country kids?"
"Hey, got any vodka on you? Whiskey will do in a pinch."
*Whiskey: Do I have no dignity?*
"Never mind, brother. Eagle Country girls don't like strong liquor."
The speakers were clearly three Guardians from Bear Country.
The three Bear Country guardians were each more boisterous and energetic than the last. Yet, when they saw their sworn enemy, Eagle Country, they wore expressions of amusement.
"We're not here to cause trouble today," George said. "We just want resources."
They were only two, while their opponents had abandoned their homes and come out in full force—three of them.
*This is so typical of Bear Country,* George thought.
*Why overthink things? Just charge in!*
*Defend the base?*
*There hasn't even been an attack. Why defend?*
*Better to all come out and party instead.*
"Hahaha!" The lead Bear Country Guardian roared with laughter. "Fine, we can't kill you all anyway, so we won't bother."
George and David's faces turned cold.
As if they could be crushed like ants at their whim.
"Let's agree on this," George proposed. "Whoever takes down a B-Class Monster gets the resources!"
"Deal! But the good stuff goes to Bear Country. Ura!"
"Ura!!"
"Ura!!"
The three men, fueled by adrenaline, let out wild, war-like cries in unison.
"Well, well, what's all the excitement?"
At that moment, Park Jeonghwan of the Kimchi Kingdom and the Guardians from the Rotten Kingdom and Kangaroo Kingdom arrived simultaneously.
All three were allies of Eagle Country.
This gave George even more confidence.
*Why not just kill those three Bear Country Guardians?*
If they did, not only would no one dare to compete for the treasure chest, but the Bear Country Guardians would be wiped out, and their nation would face punishment.
This thought lingered in George's mind.
However, the three Bear Country Guardians showed no fear, staring indifferently at the five opponents. Their attitude seemed to say, "If you want to fight, let's do it! Stop wasting time!"
The trio possessed considerable talent and formidable combat prowess.
Plus, they were bolstered by the "Ura!" buff...
"Alright! Let's go find those damn Sakura Kingdom Guardians!"
In the end, the silent standoff lasted less than three seconds before George compromised again.
Finding that disobedient subordinate was the priority!
Otherwise, if the enemy got their hands on the resources, it would have all been for nothing!
Meanwhile, Qin Feng had also arrived at his destination.
"Jarvis, have you detected anything?"
Hiding in the bushes, Qin Feng was surprised to see the oil lake surface as calm as water.
After two Sakura Kingdom operatives had been sent to their doom, there should have been some signs of a struggle.
Jarvis replied, "Sir, there are no signs of human activity within a 374-meter radius."
"Could they be on the opposite shore?" Qin Feng muttered, creeping along the lake's edge to investigate.
Meanwhile, George and his team had rendezvoused with Meichuan Ku.
The moment they met, George accused Meichuan Ku of "acting without authorization."
Meichuan Ku naturally deployed his signature move: a ninety-degree bow of apology.
"Sumimasen! Please forgive me, Mr. George. We were only trying to gauge the monster's strength for you!"
The group: ...
*Holy shit, the nerve of this guy!*
Not only was his bow perfect, but his words were also so smooth.
George shot him a cold glance and let it slide.
He then turned to the "small hill" rising from the lake's surface and asked,
"Is that the High-Spined Mosasaur?"
Meichuan Ku replied cautiously, "Yes, sir."
"Hahaha."
Park Jeonghwan of the Kimchi Kingdom said with a sneer, "You guys are falling behind, Sakura Kingdom."
Meichuan Ku's face turned cold.
*Is it really appropriate to belittle ourselves in front of the Sovereign State on our first meeting?*
But Park Jeonghwan continued, "Just a Red Talent? To deal with B-Class Monsters like these, you should leave it to my Cosmic Kingdom."
As he spoke, he brandished his newly acquired D-grade weapon, the Spirit-Slaying Blade.
Immediately, everyone was annoyed.
*Just as I thought!*
*That Spirit-Slaying Blade must have an Intelligence-Reducing Buff.*
*Or maybe this idiot in front of me was just an idiot to begin with!*
His single sentence managed to offend all eight people present.
Among them, Park Jeonghwan had the highest talent draw—Gold.
Everyone else had Red Talents, except for the Guardian from the Rotten Kingdom, who had a weaker Purple Talent.
"Jeonghwan Oppa is so handsome! *Heart heart*..."
"Our Jeonghwan Oppa is the best! Not only does he have the strongest talent, but his weapon is the most formidable too."
"Haha! Even in the face of Eagle Country, Oppa doesn't back down, securing resources for our Great Cosmic Kingdom!"
In the Kimchi Kingdom's live stream, Park Jeonghwan's fangirls went wild.
Meanwhile, the Dragon Kingdom's Keyboard Warriors, who had been lurking here, were utterly disgusted.
"Ugh... I can't take it anymore. I only lasted a minute. Sorry. Are there any Dragon Kingdom brothers here? Quick, help me back to our stream. I can't go on."
"Me too... For the sake of the Dragon Kingdom, help your brother out."
"This damn Kimchi bastard is showing off about his Gold Talent endlessly. Plenty of others got +10 attribute rewards too, right? Several people have caught up to or even surpassed Park Jeonghwan."
"Let him show off. I bet George from Eagle Country has his eye on his weapon."
"Hahaha, his sugar daddy's gonna make him hand over his weapon. Just wait and see."
On the battlefield, Meichuan Ku, who had been relentlessly dissed, retorted:
"Park Jeonghwan, right? I heard you got instantly killed by some little woman with a White Talent from the Dragon Kingdom. What are you even bragging about here?"
Meichuan Ku still held a grudge against that Dragon Kingdom woman for refusing to sell him water.
