While Su Yao and Jiang Xiaoyue have a great harvest, the competition is also in full swing in other parts of the forest dimension.

In one day, most of the players who cannot keep up with this arena have been eliminated, and even if there are still some lucky ones left, they are only a few.

Since the final pass is not only to pass through the competition area to reach the finish line, but also to defeat a large number of alien monsters to collect source energy stones in exchange for points, it is almost impossible to rely on your face to be in vain until the end.

The preliminary round is a comprehensive examination of the players' strength, mind, tactics and other factors, and there is basically no room for exploiting loopholes to make fraud.

Of course, if your face is so white that a ghost-level monster is automatically killed in front of you, and you can pick up the cramps of your hands after you get points, that's another matter.

If anyone really has this kind of luck against the will of heaven, then this should be considered a kind of superpower, and it is also a strength, so it cannot be considered cheating...

But even among the people who stayed, not everyone could push the way smoothly like Su Yao and Jiang Xiaoyue.

In fact, even for the elites among the students, the difficulty of this place is a bit too high. Not everyone has the ability to deal with three or five water ghosts or wild wolves at the same time. Some elites who were originally expected to advance were insidiously injured and were then hiding behind the scenes.

But Li Jiekai is not among them.

Li Jiekai is a contestant from Zecheng No. 3 Middle School and the first awakened person in their school this year. It is probably the same as the concept of "the hope of the whole village".

In fact, Li Zekai is also a race player in the quarterfinals of this preliminary round. Experts also mentioned his name in the pre-match pre-warming program and expressed their optimism about the contestant.

Although it may be a bit difficult to compete for the provincial representative quota with his strength, there is still hope if he just wants to enter the quarterfinals.

The difficulty of the forest dimension was somewhat beyond his expectations, but there was nothing he could not handle. From the preliminary round to now, he had hunted five water ghosts and a wild wolf alone. If it was converted into points, he had already earned 650 points.

During the game, everyone naturally had no way to know how many points the other players had obtained, but Li Zekai felt that his progress was already quite efficient.

This forest is different from the low-level dimensions of the wasteland in Linjiang City. Li Zekai has done his best to earn more than 600 points.

Not every dimensional monster you encounter here is that he has the ability to win. Every time he encounters an enemy, he must carefully weigh the strength of both sides. Once he judges that his strength is not comparable, he must immediately turn around and run away.

When he first entered, he was ignorant of the sky and earth. He rushed up to try to get a "single" water ghost, but he was almost tainted by the other two vulgar water ghosts behind him.

Fortunately, he was very strong and had all his skills and trump cards. He used all his strength to defeat the three water ghosts in a thrilling manner, otherwise he would have explained it directly at the beginning.

Li Jiekai cursed for a long time at that time. The monster in the ghost dimension is as vulgar as a game designed by an old Miyazaki thief. You will never know how many enemies are hidden in the bushes...

However, after a day, he gradually became familiar with the routine and became more familiar with the path.

Li Jiekai was confident that even if the big guys who participated in the competition were better than him, they wouldn't be much stronger. When they encountered seven or eight wild wolf-water ghosts fighting each other, he felt that even the big guys would have to turn around and run away.

If you are lucky, maybe there are other potential players in the quarterfinals who were in the finals and were given a match by the water ghost when they first met. If this continues, he will have a great chance of advancing to the quarterfinals.

However, this is only until the end of the first day.

Like other players who acted alone, Li Jiekai naturally didn't fall asleep all night. However, he set up a simple tent and sat inside and closed his eyes for a while.

The sky gradually brightened, the sky turned white, and the morning light gradually began.

When the visibility was almost the same, Li Zekai opened his eyes and prepared to continue the next day's action.

Then...and he lived.

Because he found that he could not find his backpack.

Li Zekai's surprise was really amazing.

The backpacks that the contestants allocated to the contestants contained almost all the equipment they needed, including food, maps, source energy stones and other items.

Losing his backpack not only means that all his results in yesterday's day were invalid, but also means that he has basically lost the qualification to continue the game, which is no different from being directly eliminated.

Li Zekai rushed out of the tent in panic, and then saw the culprit at a glance.

That was obviously another participant.

It was a boy with yellow hair dyed with curly hair and slender figure. He was standing on a conspicuous big stone not far from Li Zekai, with two backpacks behind him - one of which was obviously Li Zekai's.

That posture was like intentional provocation.

Li Zekai almost got angry.

This guy dares to steal his bag, but he still dares to provoke him arrogantly here?

I'm afraid I don't know who I am, my uncle?

The boy turned his head and looked at him, chuckled as if his plan was successful, then turned his head and ran away.

Li Zekai chased after him without saying a word.

He has no choice now. He can only continue the game by recovering his backpack, otherwise this trial might end for him.

But at the same time, he was puzzled.

When did this guy get his backpack?

After opening the tent last night, he remembered that he had brought his bag into the tent and kept it by his side.

When did the other party steal things from him?

He had been awake all the time and hadn't fall asleep for even a second, so how could he not notice it at all?

I can't understand these problems at all, but Li Zekai has no time to think about it now.

Now there is only one thing that is important to him, that is, to recover his backpack, otherwise everything will be done.

It's strange. Li Zekai clearly felt that he was not far from the running figure in front of him. He always felt that he could catch up with him with just one breath, but after running for more than ten minutes, he couldn't even touch a corner of his clothes.

No, if you look closely, it seems that the distance between the two has not changed at all from the beginning.

The other party hung him at a fixed distance behind him from beginning to end, as if intentional.

Just as Li Zekai was gradually suspicious, the other party suddenly accelerated.

The figure in front of him was like a sprinter sprinting suddenly when he was approaching the finish line. As his speed suddenly increased, he began to circle around the forest.

Li Zekai had already run with all his strength, but at this moment he suddenly accelerated and couldn't bear it. He barely followed the shadow and turned a few turns. In the blink of an eye, the figure suddenly disappeared.

He lost it.

Li Zekai suddenly stopped, stopped in place and gasped softly, while staring around with wide eyes.

Can't find it, no one can see it in either direction.

But how is this possible?

He was surprised and puzzled.

No matter how fast that guy is, he can't disappear from his vision in an instant, right?

Could it be that it is moving instantly?

No, it is impossible.

Although he knew that there was a super rare ability to move instantly in the world, even if an awakened person with this ability, the stages from level f to level e can only teleport at a very close distance, and it is also impossible to disappear from his sight in an instant.

So what exactly is going on?

Li Zekai didn't know, and he didn't have the time to think it through.

He noticed something was wrong.

He found that he was not the only living creature here.

He felt an extremely powerful pressure, a sense of oppression that made people unable to breathe, as if something like murderous intent was locked in himself from somewhere in the dark, just like the eyes of the god of death staring at someone whose deadline was approaching.

Li Zekai didn't dare to breathe. He turned his head mechanically and found that there was a figure behind him, a slender figure.

It has red eyes, like a deformed face, and its facial structure is like rugged mountains crisscrossing, staring at its prey with pure and primitive malicious intentions.

In an instant, Li Zekai figured out and understood why the thief had deliberately slowed down and attracted him to this place.

Because this is its territory.

A ghost-level dimensional monster.
