Infinite Sun in the East China Sea

Chapter 296 East America Team
Bing'er was not lying.

Xu Feng did indeed produce a large amount of supplies near Changhu Town; however, the process only took him a few seconds.

If the main god doesn't change the plot, Thorin and his companions will set off at the end of April and arrive at the Lonely Mountain on the Day of Turin—October 19th.

The entire journey took nearly six months.

The East China Sea team's rhythm is completely different from that of these characters in the storyline.

Xu Feng was already very fast, and the Imperial Arms Dimensional Array: Shangri-La greatly saved him time. In a short while, he had already done many things that the characters in the story could hardly imagine.

An hour passed quickly, and the time for the East American team to arrive arrived.

The instant the countdown reached zero, Xiangzi immediately focused his mental energy into a line and scanned an area as far as possible.

After she cultivated the foundation of the Amitabha Sutra, her spiritual power reached an extremely high level, and this long-distance linear scanning could reach more than 4,000 kilometers.

The Palantir Crystal further magnified her scanning range. At this moment, her straight-line detection distance was more than 10,000 kilometers. Once the line of mental energy circled around, most of the Central Continent and a considerable part of the Belegail Sea were within her scan.

If Aman were still in Arda, she could even sense the land of the gods from the far west of Middle-earth.

Unfortunately, the flat world had been shaped into a planet by the power of Ilúvatar, and the land of Aman, the abode of the gods, had disappeared. Only by traveling through a straight route could one enter that blessed land.

This kind of long-distance linear perception is very crude, but Xiangzi is just looking for the area covered by the mental energy shield—the area covered by the mental energy shield often means the place where another reincarnation team will arrive.

This shielding can prevent another team from finding its precise location through mental scanning, but it will also reveal its approximate location.

"no!"

After scanning for a moment, Xiangzi frowned: "Within a radius of 12,000 kilometers, apart from the Golden Forest of Los Lorien, which was originally shielded by mental energy, I did not sense any other areas shielded by mental energy."

Lothlorion, the Golden Forest, is the home of the Elf Queen Galadriel.

This elven queen appears to possess the abilities of a mind controller; normal mental scans are unable to detect that area.

"The Palantir Crystal allows me to penetrate the mental barrier and vaguely observe some things inside the Golden Forest, where there are no humans."

Xiangzi frowned.

The Golden Forest is an elven kingdom, with almost no humans living there, so any human mental fluctuations would be very noticeable; and the East American team's reincarnators most likely wouldn't all have their elven bloodlines enhanced... Although that's a possibility, such a team's rating probably wouldn't be stronger than the East Sea team.

"Does the East American team not have a mental controller? No, their rating is higher than ours, so theoretically they should have a mental controller."

"Or perhaps the East American team thinks there's no need for mental shielding at the start? Are they really that confident?"

"Or did the supreme god send them to the extremely distant eastern part of Middle-earth?"

Shoko was somewhat surprised by the East American team's start.

If this team is weaker than the Donghai team, then anything can happen to them. Novices can have all sorts of bad habits, but this team's rating is clearly higher than the Donghai team's.

As Xiangzi used his mental power to scan, Xu Feng searched for surveillance equipment placed in key areas. The clouds in the sky moved automatically without wind, the bionic ravens flapped their wings, and the ancient trees in the forest swayed their leaves... The surveillance cameras, mimicking various forms, were all collecting monitoring information.

"The East American team should not have arrived in Los Lorien. Of course, it cannot be ruled out that the opponent has extremely strong counter-reconnaissance capabilities."

"The elven kingdoms of the Valley of the Dead, Lindon, and the Dark Forest also lack..."

"It's normal for the dark faction to occupy areas like Mordor, Dorguldu, the orc towns, Moria, and Mount Gondobard..."

"Ha ha……"

Xu Feng became slightly excited: "The East America team's counter-surveillance capabilities are amazing!"

The East China Sea team's monitoring system is not perfect.

The bionic birds placed in the orc town in the Misty Mountains failed to find 'Gulu's' whereabouts.

If the East American team has strong enough counter-surveillance capabilities, they can completely bypass those surveillance devices.

Mei said somewhat uncertainly, "Could it be that the East American team focuses more on combat power and neglects reconnaissance?"

The little witch knew that Xu Feng always liked to overestimate his enemies.

The East America team is rated higher than the East China Sea team, but that team may not be able to reach the level of the East China Sea team in terms of reconnaissance.

Take, for example, those high-tech surveillance devices. Putting aside the basics of deploying surveillance and launching satellites, which can be accomplished with magical means, extracting useful intelligence from those massive amounts of surveillance footage is no simple task.

Technological creations and weapons in the God Realm are very cheap, but the reward points required to directly exchange for and build a complete technological combat system would be astronomical.

The East Blue team can have several systems, the core of which is the production capacity of the Swallow-Swallow Fruit.

Xu Feng cautiously said, "Before we meet the entire East America team, let's assume they are strong enough."

Preparing too thoroughly is wasteful.

However, inadequate preparation can lead to disastrous consequences.

Xu Feng would rather lament after the battle that he had wasted so much energy preparing than return alone to the Main God Space and regret his weakness.

"Xiangzi, continue the linear scan. I'll handle the mental shielding in this area. Focus on the situation at the decoy."

The bait was, of course, Ice, the elf-created humanoid who was with Gandalf and the others.

The newcomers in the Northern Wilderness could also be used as bait, provided that the East American team's reconnaissance capabilities are strong enough to detect anomalies thousands of kilometers away from where the story takes place.

After Xu Feng and Xiangzi had been scouting together for more than ten minutes, they suddenly frowned and looked at the dark, dense forest in the distance.

"Xiangzi, focus your scan on the northeastern part of the Dark Forest, near Long Lake Town."

The forest is very dense and poorly lit, making it difficult for reconnaissance equipment to observe the interior over a wide area.

Xu Feng only deployed enough surveillance devices near the Elf Kingdom in the Dark Forest. The rest of the forest was patrolled by the mechanical bionic birds.

—One of the mechanical bionic birds discovered ten corpses, seven of whom were dressed in modern clothes!
"Modern clothing? They're the East American team?" Xiangzi was stunned when she noticed the corpses. "But these people... how come they're all dead? The East American team just arrived in the Reincarnation World and already encountered enemies? But if they encountered enemies, there should have been a battle, right?"

After observing for a moment within the mental energy chain, Mei said, "The seven people dressed in modern clothes should be newcomers, while the two men in medieval armor and the other corpse that appears to be a woman are most likely veterans."

"One of the veterans had swollen muscles. He should have been in a state of unlocking the second-level gene lock before he died, but even so, he was still killed instantly. In contrast, the other two veterans, especially the female veteran, had many wounds."

The little witch concluded with a somewhat grim expression, "They encountered a very strong... very brutal enemy!"

"The East American team should have the same number of members in this cycle of reincarnation as our team, plus one more person," Xu Feng asked with a grim expression. "Did you detect any other soul fluctuations around those corpses?"

The worst-case scenario.

Regardless of the strength of the enemy, the East China Sea team is destined not to gain much from this situation.

Xiangzi closed his eyes and scanned for a moment, then gently shook his head: "No... There are no humans within a radius of forty kilometers around the corpse, and only Changhu Town and some scattered settlements nearby within a radius of four hundred kilometers have humans."

“That person hasn’t entered Changhu Town yet,” Xu Feng said in a deep voice. Changhu Town was also a key area he was monitoring. “He may possess the ability to resist mental scans.”

“There aren’t any particularly strong characters in the Dark Forest. If the East American team’s rating isn’t inflated, it’s impossible for so many people to die so silently after the story started… Could it be that this person killed all his teammates before the God’s protective shield expired?” Xiangzi asked, somewhat confused. “But this is a team battle! Isn’t he worried about being wiped out by negative scores?”

Xu Feng sneered: "You can't say for sure."

"The fully automated medical pod has already flown to that area. These people have been dead for no more than thirty minutes, and the person did not specifically dispose of the bodies. The seven new recruits still have their heads intact, and their nerve cells may still contain images from their previous lives. We will probably know some information about how they died soon."

soon.

Nanomedical robots read the experiences of those corpses before their deaths from their bodies.

Twenty-five minutes ago.

"Gentlemen, I have a suggestion... How about we kill these slackers first?" A handsome, long-haired man lazily held a blank-eyed white girl in his arms, smiling as he looked at the two burly men who had just woken up.

"Zhao Zhuikong, are you crazy?!" shouted the burly man whose dark skin was completely covered by silver full-body plate armor.

"It's one thing for you to kill those idiots in the last match, but this is a team fight. If we have too many negative points, we'll all die!"

“That’s precisely why it should be like this, because it’s a team fight.” The man named Zhao Zhuikong still had a smile on his face: “I don’t want to see a situation like the last one again.”

The senior Black man gripped the revolver at his waist and gritted his teeth, saying, "If you insist on doing this, we won't stop you."

The black man understood that the person in front of him was extremely powerful.

Although he only entered the Reincarnation World in the previous game, his strength was already extremely powerful. He easily killed three members of another team who had unlocked their gene locks in that team battle world.

The East American team won a great victory, and every reincarnator, including the newcomers, received a large number of reward points and side quests.

Unfortunately, the great victory also brought problems—those foolish newcomers became arrogant after being strengthened!
A group of white people, relying on their numbers, united to form some damned parliament, and made some kind of democratic decision-making. In the last battle, they pressured this terrible person in front of them to fight against the monster.

As a result, those fools didn't die at the hands of the monster, but at the hands of this person.

It even drove this person crazy—no, this person was already a madman to begin with!
"What I mean is... you guys should kill these newbies as soon as possible. If you wait until I have to do it, it won't just be newbies who die."

Just then, the white girl with lifeless eyes suddenly tensed up.

Zhao Zhuikong lowered his head and pressed his forehead against the white girl's head, whispering, "Don't disconnect, or... you should know what the consequences will be."

The white girl's expression changed, and she nodded repeatedly.

Upon seeing this, another veteran lowered his head and gritted his teeth.

He used so much force that it made a creaking sound.

As the black man hesitated again because of the words of the person in front of him, the veteran said in a hoarse voice, "Carlson, did you notice the watch? The East Sea team is not much weaker than us. Even if Zhao Zhuikong can kill some of the weaker members of the East Sea team, it will be difficult for him to erase the negative points. If we kill these newcomers with our own hands, with so many negative points, are you confident that you can make up for them in this world where the use of technological weapons is prohibited?"

He said coldly, "I have no confidence... and I don't want to endure it anymore!"

The veteran's voice grew louder and louder, and before he finished speaking, he suddenly drew his longsword from his waist and shouted, "Holy Light..."

At the same time, the senior black man also drew his revolver. He was extremely fast, raising the gun in the blink of an eye.

These two are the most senior members of the East American team, having experienced far more cycles of reincarnation than the man in front of them, and their teamwork is exceptionally seamless at this moment.

But just as the Black veteran was about to pull the trigger, he saw his arm slip from mid-air, and then his vision began to spin.

"Bullet time, that's a pretty good skill," Zhao Zhuikong said with a smile. "Plus that special bullet called the Origin Bullet, even if I get shot, I'll be in a pretty bad state."

"As for Holy Light... what's the point of such a weak attack?"

He sheathed his dagger and cupped the face of the experienced woman in his hands: "You seemed to be trying to interfere with me just now?"

The experienced woman tried to break free from the man before her, but found herself no match for his strength. She then gave a sorrowful smile and said, "Demon, kill me."

"Although it's a bit spoiled, it's still a pretty good orange. I can't bear to kill you," Zhao Zhuikong said with a smile. "By the way, you've suddenly become so energetic. Does that mean you can help me bear some of the negative pressure?"

A hint of doubt appeared on his face. "That's strange... You're completely useless, so why do I feel like this makes things easier for me?"

"Because the person who could help alleviate it is dead!" The white girl looked despairing when she saw that the other two senior members were dead.

“You see me as a replacement for that bitch, yes… I have the potential to grow even stronger than that woman, but that doesn’t mean I can do it right now.”

"By the way, you killed that person with your own hands."

The white girl laughed maniacally: "Now... can I die?"
