I have an eye of truth

The difference in strength meant that the enemies had little ability to resist.

Ao Han simply released a defensive spell and ignored them. The attacks landed on his ice wall, leaving only small marks, having no effect whatsoever.

Once a defensive spell is cast, even attacks of the same level are difficult to break, let alone by these people.

In just two minutes, all of these people were dead, the ground littered with corpses. "What do we do now?" Wang Yang frowned, still somewhat unaccustomed to killing humans.

Although various situations had forced his hand, and he was gradually getting used to killing, Wang Yang still felt heavy-hearted seeing the bodies of his own kind on the ground.

"These people were asking for it, don't take it to heart," He Yingxue said, having discerned something.

After all, they had been together for some time, and Wang Yang wasn't very good at hiding his feelings. He Yingxue had a clear understanding of Wang Yang's personality. Moreover, He Yingxue had the military's analysis to help her.

Zi Qing then turned on the communicator: "This matter must be reported as soon as possible, otherwise it will be very troublesome. Fortunately, the surveillance cameras recorded everything; these people attacked first, so it doesn't matter if they were killed."

Soon, she connected with the command center, and Zi Qing reported the news from their location.

But before long, Zi Qing's brow furrowed.

"What happened? Is the military trying to make things difficult for us?"

Zi Qing shook her head: "No, the military isn't making things difficult for us, but the situation is getting worse. Many people have discovered the wealth left behind by the Redscale Mutants, and battles are happening in more places than just here."

Everyone understood; it seemed there were battles raging in many places.

Indeed, people die for wealth. Even at this critical time, they were still killing each other for it.

He Yingxue paused for a moment, then said, "This is strange. Why would the Redscale Mutants scatter their wealth instead of hiding it in one place? And these places aren't very hidden. If these were treasure troves hidden by other Redscale Mutants themselves, it would be too strange and wouldn't make sense."

Ao Han said indifferently, "What else could it be? They must be doing it on purpose."

Ao Han's voice was filled with a chilling tone, making his originally pleasant voice somewhat unsettling.

Zi Qing nodded: "Indeed, it seems this is a divide-and-conquer strategy by the Redscale Mutants. These guys aren't all that brainless after all. They've exploited the weaknesses in the adventurers' personalities and set up such a trap."

"It's all those bastards' fault; they're ruining the reputation of adventurers!"

Lingling said indignantly, but she seemed to have forgotten that they were the minority among adventurers; those with bad reputations were the majority, the norm.

Wang Yang also understood that this wealth was probably deliberately shown to the adventurers by the Redscale Mutants.

The military has strong discipline and wouldn't have their discipline disrupted by these things. After collecting the items, they know they'll definitely get their share. But the adventurers are different; so much wealth is enough to buy many of them a new life.

Thus, various killings and ambushes occurred frequently. For the sake of this wealth, countless people died.

"It's not just that. Think about it, if we carry these burdens, won't our combat power be affected? And some adventurers who get something, will they continue to stay? I'm afraid they'll take their things and run away."

Wang Yang nodded: "Using this method to reduce our forces and hinder our battle? It's indeed a good plan, a calculated scheme."

It was indeed a calculated scheme. Even if they were told the purpose of doing this, countless people would still fall for it.

Even Wang Yang had just been considering how to take these things away. This was only because they were relatively wealthy and wouldn't be blinded by these things. You must know that most adventurers are very poor.

He Yingxue continued, "It's not just about reducing combat power; the most crucial thing is that the encirclement has a problem. The reason we found so many adventurers before was because we didn't have enough troops and needed adventurers to supplement them."

Encirclement? Wang Yang's eyes lit up; it was indeed a good plan. Originally, the encirclement was very tight, and the Redscale Mutants couldn't escape at all, but now, the situation seemed to have changed.

Because of the wealth, not only were the adventurers killing each other, but many people were also leaving. Now, there were flaws in the encirclement, no, there should be very large loopholes. Even entire areas were undefended, and the Redscale Mutants could take this opportunity to break through.

Perhaps the main force couldn't leave, but it wouldn't be a problem for a small number of important figures to escape with important items.

"It's all because the army here lacks experience in dealing with these mutants; otherwise, how could such a big loophole appear? We can only try to do more," Zi Qing said through gritted teeth.

After all, Zi Qing came from a military family, although she didn't want to join, her perspective and views were different.

The more Redscale Mutants that escaped, the greater the threat to normal people; these were all anti-human monsters.

If one focused on the overall situation of the entire tenth floor, killing as many Redscale Mutants as possible would definitely only be beneficial. Thinking of this, the team prepared to speed up their advance.

As for the wealth here, everyone didn't even glance at it.

The others were all very wealthy, and Su Xiaoyu and Su Xiaoke followed Zi Qing's lead. As for Wang Yang himself, not to mention that he had a lot of wealth, but what he needed most was energy.

So what attracted Wang Yang the most was killing mutated beasts, not those ordinary things.

No matter how much of these things there were, they couldn't quickly improve his strength, so they were basically useless.

Seeing Wang Yang's performance, Zi Qing nodded slightly, approving of him even more. If someone valued wealth too much, such a person couldn't be kept in the team; they would be a disaster sooner or later.

The wealth that people were fighting over was left behind by the group. What they didn't know was that soon after they left, the adventure teams behind them discovered this place.

One team tried to leave with the items, but they were discovered by other teams on the road, and another conflict erupted.

In this regard, the Redscale Mutants' plan was really very successful. In the blink of an eye, the number of adventurers besieging them this time had decreased significantly. Some were killed by other adventurers, some left on their own, and the pressure was instantly reduced.
