The reputation of the mythical beast reapers spread throughout the entire Bahuang Forest. At this point, every other team prayed that they wouldn’t come across this team because it would mean only one of two things—Either they get eliminated, or they don’t get to even touch a single mythical beast!

It was the goal for everyone that was in the borders of the forest to slay as many mythical beasts as they could so that they could get higher rankings, so if they were being honest, they would rather meet the top five teams instead of the mythical beast reapers!

Meanwhile, the infamous team was huddled around a hotpot and eating their fill as they discussed their cooperation from earlier.

“After killing all these mythical beasts, our rankings should have gone up quite a bit!” Jimin poured a packet of seasoning into the pot before looking up at the others. “Jiji, pour some water won’t you?”

Jiji sent an emotionless stare at Jimin before it stretched out a mechanical arm and a stream of clear water flowed out from its fingertip.

“What an interesting robot you have there, Miss Lalisa! Where did you pick it up from?” Chanwoo asked in interest. “To be able to create a steady flow of water like that from the particles in the air, that sort of technology would definitely be beneficial to mankind!”

Upon hearing this, Lisa’s hand paused for a moment before she rubbed her nose sheepishly, not saying anything in reply.

Meanwhile, Kihyun and the others could barely stifle their laughter as they pat Jiji’s shoulder. “You hear that? You’re interesting!”

Jiji: “…”

Lisa took a piece of lotus root from the pot before her brows furrowed slightly and she looked off into the distance thoughtfully.

“What’s wrong?” Woojin looked up at her, knowing that she perceived something that they couldn’t.

Lisa stood up slowly and spread out her mental power into the surroundings, her eyes closed in concentration. “Something’s not quite right.”

“What?” Taehyung reached to put out the fire before he looked up and asked, “What’s going on?”

“Someone’s calling for help.” She reopened her eyes, and the coldness in those orbs made Woojin revert his gaze from her.

“If that’s the case, why wouldn’t they just forfeit?” The nine others looked at each other perplexedly. Even though rankings were important, but nothing was important than their life, no? Even though Lisa would eliminate a country’s teams all at once, but she would never cause them mortal harm.

Lisa inhaled deeply. “It’s their consciousnesses that are calling out for help, but I can’t quite pinpoint where it’s coming from. Brother Jungkook was right, there’s something wrong with this forest.”

Upon seeing her solemn expression, the others all started facing the seriousness of the issue, and Kihyun suddenly remarked, “Right, didn’t a Houtian stage mythical beast flee from us yesterday?”

“Yesterday?” Lisa squinted slightly. “How did I not know about this?”

Upon hearing this, they all reverted their gazes awkwardly, and Rosé replied, “When you went off to play with those foreigners, we met a Houtian-stage mythical beast that could speak, but it managed to flee from us.”

“That shouldn’t be right, even though these mythical beasts have intelligence, they’re all supposed to be just clusters of energy. It’s impossible that they could speak…” Lisa hummed, before asking, “But anyway, you guys just let it run away?”
