Mo Fan simply walked in a direction, and somehow stumbled onto the corpse of another man.

Likewise, it was covered in fresh blood, his body torn into half by the creature, but not eaten. The man was tortured right before his death, as the panicked expression on his face was enough to imply what he had experienced prior to his death.

It was difficult to tell how many Magicians had died in the wild when searching for treasure, yet without these Magicians risking their lives looking for resources in the demon beasts’ territories, humans would be a lot weaker than demon beasts… Mo Fan was a Hunter himself, so he clearly understood the sorrow.

He ignited a fire and set the corpse aflame, just so the body would not be eaten by any other demon beasts.

“Magic Vine: Entangle!”

A feminine icy voice suddenly appeared from the woods. Mo Fan was ambushed after he had just burned the corpse. Luckily, he was not a rookie when it came to real fights. He had already drawn the Shadow Element Star Pattern when he sensed the energy ripple of the Magic.

Blue magic vines grew rapidly under Mo Fan’s feet as if they were alive, lunging upwards and wrapping around Mo Fan’s figure.

However, Mo Fan’s figure slowly dissolved into the shadow of the trees nearby. It was likehe had vanished into thin air, leaving a black shadow on the trunk.

“Who’s there, come out at once!” Mo Fan slowly appeared beside the trunk. Lightning instantly appeared on his palm with a crackle!

“I should be the one asking the question!” Some distance away, a tall woman with yellow hair to her shoulders appeared, staring at Mo Fan coldly.

Mo Fan chuckled when he saw the woman with an aquiline nose and a badge on her chest. “Is the military running out of money, trying to dig up some gold here?”

“We don’t need a useless Hunter like you to judge us!” Nanyu did not continue to attack Mo Fan. Although Mo Fan was not wearing a Hunter’s badge, his temperament clearly revealed his identity.

“Many of your comrades have died. I feel like your squad is going to get wiped out before you could find anything useful.”

Nanyu did not speak, and bit her lips softly.

As Mo Fan had mentioned, their squad had lost too many members here. The Fire Cloud Woods was a lot more terrifying than they had imagined. They could only hide in a safe spot to avoid being massacred…

“How are you unharmed when you’re walking around on your own? It doesn’t look like you’re able to handle the creatures in this area with your cultivation,” said Nanyu.

Mo Fan squinted as he inspected the ‘utterly handsome’ female Commander. His eyes scanned from her hair to the loose army pants…

Her legs were insanely long. The loose army pants could not hide her muscular legs, yet her calves were fairly thin. Her legs were already so long and upright without wearing heels, a beauty indeed!

The woman’s height was outstanding. Mo Fan was not short among men, yet the woman was only one to two centimeters shorter than him. Together with her cold, handsome face, she looked rather dignified when looking down at short boys, urging them to submit to her willingly, yet when facing little girls, her handsomeness would dazzle them, making girls doubt about their sexual orientation!

Her nose was the rare aquiline nose, combined with a pair of glistening, single-eyelid eyes. Mo Fan was not a fan of effeminate men or tomboys, but he found the neutral beauty of the female Commander very attractive, somewhat handsome and breathtaking!

Alright, it doesn’t matter if someone were an effeminate man or a tomboy, what was more important was their looks. He could not care less which way they were leaning, as good looks made the world go round!

Nanyu’s eyes became colder when she was aware of Mo Fan’s unbridled gaze. She quickly tagged Mo Fan as a lecher and immediately became more alert when interacting with him.

“If you’re willing to give up on the mission, you can ask your people to follow me. I’ll bring you to safety,” said Mo Fan.

“We haven’t found the Fire Calamity Fruit…”

Mo Fan burst out laughing before Nanyu could finish. He waved his hand and said, “Forget about it, you can’t even make it through the Fire Cloud Woods, don’t even think about trying to get the Fire Calamity Fruit. I know where it is, but the guardian of the Fire Calamity Fruit isn’t something we can deal with. Killing us would be like killing ants for her. Don’t waste the lives of your people. Just listen to me and leave when you still have the chance, or head down and loot some Soul Seeds or Soul Seed Pieces and report back to your superiors.”

Nanyu frowned. She did not like Mo Fan’s tone, yet she could not help but admit that her squad was being targeted by some deadly creature. Their numbers kept on decreasing, yet she still had no idea what was attacking them.

Mo Fan continued when he saw the Commander being hesitant. “The creature that attacked your squad should be the Three-headed Demon Python, the guy at the top of the food chain in this Fire Cloud Woods.”

Mo Fan had inspected the corpses along the way, and observed that the corpses had died to the same causes: poison, fire, and broken bones. The only creature that could be responsible for their deaths would be the Three-headed Demon Python that had tried to prey on him, too.

“How do you know that?” asked Nanyu with the same alert tone.

“I’ll ask you one more time. Are you going to give up, or continue to stay here and wait for your death?” Mo Fan did not want to waste his time with Nanyu. If they weren’t from the army, or the fact that he was feeling it would be a pity if the gorgeous girl was killed by the demon beast, he would not bother helping them.

The Fiery Sorceress must have warned the Three-headed Demon Python, thus it did not dare to trouble him even when he was roaming in the woods. The others weren’t so lucky…

Nanyu hesitated for a long time, her eyes staring at Mo Fan, trying to see if he were setting them up.

However, as she recalled that staying in the woods any longer would place her people in extreme danger, she finally came to terms and asked Mo Fan, “Can you bring us to safety?”

“Should be, but I have to find my friends first. We’ll leave together,” said Mo Fan.

Mo Fan did not like to do things sloppily. After witnessing the Fiery Sorceress’ strength, he immediately gave up on the thought of securing the Fire Calamity Fruit.

“Then… fine, you better not be lying to me,” said Nanyu.

“I was being kind, and also because of your looks,” said Mo Fan teasingly.

Speaking of which, it seemed like it was easy to find great beauties in the army. Li Man and the woman before him were of the best quality compared to the girls at school or the cities. Their empress-like auras and a temperament that could entrance the hearts of young men was not something the girls who spent most of their time figuring what cosmetics, luxurious bags, and clothing to buy could mimic.

“Jerk!” Nanyu glared at Mo Fan. No one dared to speak to her like that in the army!
