This Curse Is Just Awesome-Chapter 244 - Your King Is Back... (1)

"If I don't wear it on your legs, can I wear it on Xiao Yao's legs?"

Chen Yu tilted his head. "Then maybe it was worn by Ma Li. Can it be worn by Xiao Yao?"

"Then you'll wear it on me?!" Duan Ye roared.

"Because you're so flirtatious."

"...That's true."

Bahuang Yao: "...."

After dusting off the dust on the fluorescent beads, Chen Yu threw them away. "Catch."

Pa.

Duan Ye hurriedly caught them and carefully placed them into his bag. "Five."

"There's more behind you. Follow me. Xiao Yao, pay attention to your surroundings."

"Okay."

The young girl nodded. Her body was lithe as she jumped onto the crown of the tree and observed her surroundings from a high vantage point.

"Turn around. The sky is a little dark, I can't see clearly." Chen Yu looked at Duan Ye and waved his hand impatiently.

"..." In silence, Duan Ye walked forward step by step. He endured the humiliation and stretched out his stocking leg.

"...Pfft."

"You're still laughing despite your shamelessness!" Duan Ye's face was unusually red.

"...Cough. Sorry, I'm a professional. I won't laugh under normal circumstances." Chen Yu rubbed his face and looked at the stocking leg in a serious manner.

"The node is here, the next coordinate is..."

"Chen Yu! Just look! You can't touch it!"

"Okay, okay, okay..."

"...F*ck! I already said you can't touch it!"

"I'll say it first. Your leg is really white."

"Don't touch it!"

"Shh! Be quiet, it's the middle of the night... I won't touch it anymore... It makes me feel like I'm in a trance, hahahaha..."

Looking at Chen Yu who was laughing maniacally, Duan Ye felt ashamed and angry. He felt embarrassed and shy... He even felt a strange feeling that was hard to describe.

Coupled with the cool feeling on his stockings, Duan Ye felt that something was wrong.

This feeling of being both mentally and physically right and wrong made Duan Ye feel a little strange...

'It seems like...'

'It's not too bad...'

...

Just like that, with the guidance left behind by Ma Li, Chen Yu and the others headed east, stopping and walking.

Soon, the number of fluorescent beads in their backpack exceeded 15.

In other words, the number of beads that Ma Li left for them was actually as many as 11...

"Ridiculous."

"It's a little too ridiculous."

Another half an hour passed.

The last bead was dug out.

Chen Yu could not hide the shock in his heart. "Duan Ye, how many are there in total?"

"Including the ones you have, there's a total of... 17."

Hearing that, Chen Yu fell silent.

Duan Ye was also speechless.

They had worked so hard to kill, but they had only found four.

Ma Li's group was just an ordinary class, but they had actually collected 13. It was three times more than them and one more!

"Brother Yu..." After a long while, Duan Ye raised his head and asked, "How did she do it?"

"I'm not sure." Chen Yu shook his head. "But I can be sure that it's not a normal method. They are an ordinary class. Even with Ma Li, they shouldn't be able to achieve a higher offensive efficiency than us."

"Could it be... robbing others?"

"The possibility is very high."

"Brother Yu." At this moment, Bahuang Yao, who had been shuttling through the treetops, suddenly said, "I see smoke ahead."

"Smoke?" Chen Yu was stunned. He turned to look at the girl above him. "What smoke?"

"It's cooking smoke." Bahuang Yao narrowed his eyes. "The sky is getting darker and darker. I can't see it clearly. From the rising shape, it feels like smoke."

"Let me see."

After handing the bead to Duan Ye, Chen Yu jumped to Bahuang Yao's side and looked in the direction the girl was pointing at.

"Hmm... it's smoke."

"Did Ma Li leave it behind?"

"From the direction, it should be."

"The smoke is so obvious. Aren't you afraid of being attacked by other contestants?" Bahuang Yao hesitated. "And... It feels like a trap."

Squatting on the treetop, Chen Yu thought for a while. "I'll go. You guys follow behind."

"No... Won't it be dangerous..."

"I'll go and see if there's any." With a sneer, Chen Yu jumped down. "Spread out and stay hidden. Don't come within 1,000 meters of me. Duan Ye, you can do it yourself, right?"

Duan Ye took off the Clear Sky Staff on his back and held it in his hand. "No problem. Unless it's a combat expert like Yao Zi, ordinary martial artists can't enter my body."

"Okay. Pay attention to the secret signal communication."

Nodding, Chen Yu pressed his palms together.

Pa!

"Martial Art -- Leap of Faith."

[Body restrained: Explosive Power +38%]

"Let's go."

Waving his hand, Chen Yu shot off and kicked the ground with a bang! His entire body turned into a stream of light in front of him.

Only a faint afterimage was left.

"Follow him." After waiting for Chen Yu to disappear for half a minute, Duan Ye commanded, "Spread out."

"Okay."

...

Dong!

Dong dong dong...

It was as if a cannon was firing.

Every step Chen Yu took would definitely produce a loud bang!

His sprinting speed also became faster and faster.

In just over a minute, he arrived at the place where the smoke rose.

Squeak squeak --

His body suddenly stopped. Chen Yu withdrew his energy, rolled, and hid in the grass, crawling forward.

At this time, the night had completely covered the world.

There were layers of dark clouds in the sky, and there was no starlight shining down.

The visibility was very low.

But this kind of environment was Chen Yu's home ground.

The night vision ability of his eyes now could be seven times that of a cat...

Guyong...

Guyong...

Very soon, Chen Yu stopped squirming and carefully pried open the vegetation.

He saw a group of people resting around an extinguished bonfire in an empty space in front of him.

Around them were the corpses of two Level 2 exotic beasts.

Huala...

Raising his body slightly, Chen Yu focused his gaze on them, and his spirit shivered.

It was indeed Ma Li's class.

"..."

"...That's not right."

He did not leave immediately. Due to his cautiousness, he waited on the spot and carefully observed for a while. As expected, he found some clues.

Ma Li's group...

Had been kidnapped!

Although it was dark, with Chen Yu's eyesight, he could still barely see the dark rope on Ma Li's body.

"It's a little strange..."

It was understandable that Ma Li couldn't beat the other elite classes with a group of ordinary warriors.

However, her strength wasn't weak, and her battle plan was also excellent. How could she be captured without any injuries?

Moreover, this was the Global University Tournament, so what was the use of captives?

Waiting in the grass, Chen Yu thought for a long time, but he couldn't figure it out. Then, he retreated rationally.

Not long after, he met up with Duan Ye and Bahuang Yao.

"What did you find?" Duan Ye asked.

"Shh..." Chen Yu made a silent gesture. "Something's not right. Ma Li has been kidnapped."

"Huh?" Bahuang Yao was surprised.

"Kidnapped? By who?" Duan Ye was puzzled.

"I don't know. They just sat in the open without any injuries, but they were tied up. I don't know who the kidnapper is."

"Did Ma Li set the trap on purpose?"

"I don't know..."

Duan Ye frowned. "What should we do now? Should we meet up with Ma Li and the others?"

"It's necessary to meet up. They collect beads so quickly. At the very least, we need to know how they did it."

"...Then can you take us to have a look?"

"Okay, follow the path I just took. Don't make a sound."

"Okay."

The three of them went back into stealth mode towards Ma Li's direction.

As they walked, Chen Yu also vaguely saw the net stockings at the bottom of Duan Ye's pants. He was instantly stunned. "You're still wearing them?"

"Ah? Oh, right." Duan Ye nodded. "I couldn't take them off in time. Shh, let's go quickly. We have important matters to attend to."

Chen Yu: "..."

Not long after, the three of them came to the underbrush where Chen Yu had been hiding. They pushed aside the vegetation and observed the situation in the open space together in secret.

"Did you find anything?" Chen Yu asked in a low voice.

"Wait a moment. I have this thing. Hey." Duan Ye took out the thermal telescope.

Chen Yu suddenly understood. "I forgot about this thing."

"Shh." Duan Ye raised the telescope and peered at them for half a minute in an extremely professional posture. Then he put it down. "I understand."

Chen Yu asked, "What do you understand?"

Duan Ye explained in a low voice, "Ma Li was indeed kidnapped. And the kidnappers used them as bait."

Chen Yu: "Continue."

"Do you see the corpses of the exotic beasts on either side of them?"

"Yes."

"The exotic beasts can't eat each other. They'll get diarrhea."

Duan Ye gestured with his hands. "So, Ma Li and the others hide among the corpses of the exotic beasts. They don't have to worry too much about the other exotic beasts coming over to kill them. The bonfire was lit and extinguished, so that the smoke could rise. The smoke doesn't emit light, so it won't attract the exotic beasts. But it will attract us over."

"Understood."

Chen Yu nodded. "It's just that they didn't wait for us, so they attracted the attention of the other classes. Then, the other party heard from Ma Li and the others that we were coming, and perhaps they also knew that we had the fluorescent pearls, so they set up such a trap."

"Bingo!" Duan Ye made a silent finger gesture. "That's it."

"Ma... isn't Ma Li being too stupid?" Bahuang Yao was at a loss. "She should know that if the smoke rises, it will definitely attract other people."

"She did it on purpose." Chen Yu sneered. "I've figured out her trick."

"What trick?" the girl asked.

"As a normal first-year class, she's the weakest one on the surface among all the participating classes. But Ma Li is definitely a ruthless character. She's deliberately pretending to be a pig to eat a tiger. She's raising smoke, waiting for us while attracting other contestants. If she attracts the weak, she'll eat them all up."

"But in the end, she attracted an iron plate," Duan Ye said.

"That's for sure. Sooner or later, she will meet the iron plate. So, when she meets it, she will surrender and admit defeat. At the same time, she will tell the other party about us so that the kidnappers will target us," Chen Yu explained.

"...So flirtatious." Duan Ye narrowed his eyes. "When we appear, we will kill those kidnappers and earn another large sum of fluorescent beads."

"If we are not careful, we will at least lose to the other party. She will reap the benefits of the fisherman."

"This woman can really..."

"..." Hearing this arrangement, Bahuang Yao was dumbfounded.

"Since we've figured out the situation, let's move out." Chen Yu took Duan Ye's thermal telescope and looked ahead. "There are three kidnappers in total. There are two under the exotic beast's corpse on the left, and one under the corpse on the right."

"En, I saw it just now." Duan Ye's eyes were sharp. "Can we make a move now?"

"Yes. Sneak attack the two people on the left. Don't hold back, and don't burst out your Qi. The other party will be alerted."

"Oak."

Turning his head, Duan Ye looked at the beast corpse on the left, and his eyes flashed!

Kacha!

A spatial crack appeared out of thin air!

It instantly cut off the exotic beast's corpse.

It also cut off the two martial artists hiding below.

"Ahhh!"

A miserable scream sounded.

It instantly resounded throughout the entire area!

The martial artist hiding on the right side was shocked and angry at the same time. He released his Qi at an extremely fast speed.

Bang!

The explosive impact actually sent the entire carcass of the exotic beast flying...

"This is..."

The pupils of Chen Yu and the other two contracted at the same time.

"A Level 4 martial artist?!"

"Brother Yu!" Duan Ye's scream carried a trace of fear. "He's coming over!"

"Level 4..."

"This is an iron plate?"

"This is a f*cking titanium plate!"

Without any hesitation, Chen Yu did not care about anything else and immediately pressed his palms together.

Clap!

"Martial Art -- Leap of Faith!"

[Body restrained: Explosive Power +37%]

"Martial Art -- Enlightenment!"

[Unknown status gain: Temporary IQ Increase -50%]

[Paralysis triggered!]

[Temporary speed +92%]

Boom!

White flames soared into the sky. Chen Yu's eagle eyes once again shone with a wise and profound light.

Clang!

Standing up, he pulled out his long sword majestically and pointed it at the Level 4 martial artist in front of him, full of killing intent.

"Hehe. A mere Level 4 martial artist dares to be so arrogant?"

"Brother Yu..." Duan Ye raised his head in a daze. "You..."

Chen Yu turned his head and looked at Duan Ye and Bahuang Yao. The corners of his mouth curled into a proud smile.

"Foolish mortals."

"Your king... is back."
