Endless Winter: My Camp Upgrades Infinitely-Chapter 297 - 163: Almost Annihilated, The Mystery of Gao Yu_3
Chapter 297: Chapter 163: Almost Annihilated, The Mystery of Gao Yu_3
After tonight, everything will be completely different.
Xia Chuan has already used his own abilities to tell everyone in the camp:
Why, in the absence of Xia Hong, he is the one in charge.
Why many of the camp’s affairs are actually managed by him.
Why his position in the camp is second only to the leader, Xia Hong.
It seems that as this hands-off manager, I can take things a little easier in the future!
The elevation of Xia Chuan’s status in the eyes of everyone is something Xia Hong is happy to see.
Being able to spare time for training is one thing, but most crucially, the reliance of Great Xia on him is not as severe.
If everything has to rely on him as the leader, then Great Xia has no future.
No matter how strong the systematic structures are, it still needs people to use them.
No matter how capable he is, there will always be things he cannot accomplish.
Taking a huge step back, tonight he woke up, but what if he didn’t, or if he wasn’t at the camp, would the people here just sit and wait for death?
The main reason Xia Hong endured for so long without showing up tonight, of course, was because the casualties were not significant and were within his acceptable range.
Secondly, it was to find out He Yuanhun, and this goal was successfully achieved.
Lastly, it also served as a test for Xia Hong to the camp.
He wanted to see, after more than half a year of integrated development, how much the Great Xia Camp’s over a thousand people had grown and what they could achieve.
From the moment he broke through to the Cold Resistance Level and realized his own strength, Xia Hong understood that as long as the situation with the deceitful monster was clarified, the Mirror Immortal Camp was no longer a threat but rather another opportunity for the development of Great Xia.
With that being the case, why not use this crisis as a test and enjoy the benefits!
Not only Xia Chuan, but also the Hunting Team, the Earth-digging Realm, the Logging Realm, and even the children in the camp, all their performances far exceeded his expectations.
This is also why after Xia Hong finished killing, he looked at everyone with eyes full of emotion.
"Leader, everything is ready, shall we set off now?"
Xia Hong sat alone at the mouth of the valley, and upon hearing Xia Chuan’s voice, he turned around to find that only Xia Chuan had walked over.
"What, afraid?"
Xia Chuan shook his head and said, "Of course not, Brother, your wounds..."
Xia Hong revealed a smile on his face and directly opened his cloak to show his chest.
The more than ten bloody holes on his chest had already healed and scabbed in such a short time.
Not only that, Xia Hong also wiped the bloodstains off his left face.
Xia Chuan then realized that the two wounds on his face had also scabbed over and healed.
"My skin healing speed is much faster than the average Cold Resistance Level. The only injury He Yuanhun inflicted on me is here..."
Xia Hong revealed his left arm, where the fine cracks had significantly decreased.
"To heal this injury, the light of the Iron Refining Furnace’s fire was needed, and it has just about healed now. It doesn’t affect my strength; let’s go straight to the Mirror Immortal Camp. He Yuanhun has been injured by me; he should have returned if nothing unexpected happens."
Hearing Xia Hong say that he was fine, Xia Chuan looked relieved.
But soon, he furrowed his brow again and said to Xia Hong:
"Brother, if He Yuanhun is actually Gao Yu, then why wasn’t he afraid of the Iron Refining Furnace during his last visit to the camp, and he said a lot of things that seemed...
"True, right?"
A hint of doubt and confusion rose in Xia Hong’s eyes as well.
This question, up to now, he hasn’t figured out.
From what we can see currently, aside from his background, almost everything He Yuanhun said during his last visit to the camp was true.
He Yuanhun said then that the deceitful monster could simultaneously control multiple Cold Beasts and that its eyes could emit evil light, shattering human bodies.
These two points alone matched up with him exactly.
In fact, if it weren’t for He Yuanhun’s prior warning, Xia Hong’s battle with him tonight might not have gone so smoothly.
But why?
Why did he proactively reveal his abilities to me beforehand?
The most crucial part is why He Yuanhun was not at all afraid of the Iron Refining Furnace’s fire when he visited Great Xia last time.
Xia Hong saw clearly that not only did he walk to the furnace, but he even reached out to touch it.
The torch and solidified fire oil, being derivatives of the Iron Refining Furnace, only react when in contact with the eyes, but the furnace is different.
Just as he descended into the Earth-digging Realm of the Mirror Immortal Camp, from the four intermediate Cold Beasts to He Yuanhun himself, their eye areas reacted when covered by the furnace’s firelight.
But why was there no reaction that time?
"Don’t think too much about it; He Yuanhun is already at his wit’s end. We’ll find out when we get there; tonight marks the end of the Mirror Immortal Camp!"
Unable to figure it out, Xia Hong doesn’t dwell on it further and simply signals Xia Chuan to gather the others to set off immediately to find the Mirror Immortal encampment.fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm
