Getting Stronger By Fighting-Chapter 596 - 594: The Unpredictable Strength_1

One should know that a great battle just occurred here, and Luo Tianhong is a human. He was right next to the beasts, yet they didn't eliminate him. How is this possible? Could there be some trick involved?

"What? We're already so familiar. You wouldn't suspect me of being a demonic beast, would you?"

Luo Tianhong's leg was injured. He glanced at Wang Zhan, then pursed his lips. Limping, he started towards the distance, saying as he walked, "Fine. Since you don't believe me, I won't stay here and be an eyesore. That should ease your concerns."

Seeing Luo Tianhong's resolute demeanor, Wang Zhan was inclined to believe him. After all, just moments ago, he was even doubting if the person he saw was truly Luo Tianhong. But this personality was unmistakably Luo Tianhong.

After all, Luo Tianhong had always been like this. He had even nearly come to blows with Xiang Tian, leading to everyone parting on bad terms. Surprisingly, that stubborn temperament of his hadn't changed a bit.

Luo Xue hurried over. After glancing at Luo Tianhong, who stood to the side, she fixed her gaze on Wang Zhan and asked, "Brother Zhan, who is this person?!"

Her gaze seemed filled with hostility.

"Brother Zhan!"

Luo Tianhong immediately covered his mouth and chuckled. Pointing at the girl before him, he said, "My, my, how long has it been since we last saw each other? You've already found such a little sister by your side. But I don't see you as the type to be into women. Tell me, what means did she use to capture you?"

Luo Xue had been extremely annoyed with Luo Tianhong. However, upon hearing his words, she broke into a grin, a hint of shyness coloring her face. After all, in Luo Tianhong's eyes, perhaps she had already become Wang Zhan's woman. Although this was merely his assumption, the thought of being connected to Wang Zhan in such a way naturally made her quite happy.

Wang Zhan rolled his eyes at Luo Tianhong and explained, "What on earth are you thinking about in that little head of yours all day? Who told you we're boyfriend and girlfriend? She's just a teammate I met in the war zone. We're currently operating jointly; where are you getting all these ideas?"

"Operating jointly?"

Luo Tianhong glanced at Luo Xue, then shook his head and said, "With her level of strength, she can operate jointly with you? I knew there was something fishy between you two. Of course, if you don't want to explain, then don't. It's not like your private life has anything to do with me anyway."

"Cut the crap. How did you end up here? Tell me now, or I'll deal with you as a spy." Wang Zhan glanced impatiently at Luo Tianhong.

Luo Tianhong immediately piped up, "Don't tell me it's because there's treasure nearby? That would be too much of a coincidence! We can just follow our previous cooperation: you lead me to the treasure, and we split its contents. How about that?"

Luo Tianhong's eyes widened, and he placed his hands on his hips, exclaiming, "What do you take me for, a treasure detector? If treasure appeared everywhere I did, would I still be standing here now? I'd probably have reached the peak long ago, comparable to those true experts! By then, I could crush you with a single finger!"

Wang Zhan had just been feeling a surge of excitement. After all, if they could really find treasure, he could definitely improve significantly. Although he had already stepped into the Martial King Realm, Wang Zhan didn't feel satisfied. The Star War Battlefield was teeming with formidable enemies. So, without sufficient strength, advancing even a single step was difficult.

Luo Tianhong, at the side, shook his head helplessly and said, "Alright, I don't want to waste any more time with you. Prepare quickly, and then we'll head to the next defence."

"What do you mean by that?"

Wang Zhan looked curiously at Luo Tianhong beside him and asked, "You don't happen to have some inside information, do you?"

"Sort of."

Luo Tianhong nodded and continued, "The entire fifth war zone has become an ocean of beasts. Soon, those beasts will break through the defence's level barrier. This isn't the main Battlefield. So, you just need to follow me to the next location, and you'll encounter those demonic beasts."

"Does that happen to suit your wishes? Aren't you always looking for powerful level 1 demonic beasts to temper your strength? Did you think I couldn't tell?"

This…

Upon hearing this, Wang Zhan's expression instantly turned grim. He clenched his fists, his gaze fixed sharply on Luo Tianhong as he demanded in a harsh voice, "Just who are you?"

He had never told anyone about the System, nor had he mentioned to anyone that only by continuously encountering demonic beasts stronger than himself could he significantly increase his combat power. So, how on earth did Luo Tianhong know all this?

Thinking of this, Wang Zhan's expression darkened further. Now, he couldn't help but doubt Luo Tianhong's trustworthiness. Luo Tianhong's appearances were too coincidental, always showing up when Wang Zhan was in major trouble. It felt as if it was fated. One coincidence might be acceptable, but an accumulation of multiple coincidences felt unreal, just like this moment.

"What's with all your nonsense? I'm asking you one last time: are you coming with me or not? If you're not, I'm leaving by myself. Goodbye!" As he spoke, Luo Tianhong quickly turned, clearly intending to leave for real.

Wang Zhan narrowed his eyes. How could he let Luo Tianhong leave just like that when things weren't clear? In an instant, he was in front of Luo Tianhong, blocking his path and demanding again, "If you don't explain who you are, I won't let you leave. Understand?"

"This isn't just about being responsible for everyone's safety; it's also for the entire fifth war zone! I cannot allow any threat to exist within the fifth war zone!"

When Wang Zhan had seen Luo Tianhong absorb that spirit body, he had sensed something amiss. And the most frightening part was that he still couldn't see through Luo Tianhong's actual level of strength at all.

Luo Tianhong chuckled and said, "Alright, alright, stop worrying about such things. Relax, I absolutely won't harm any of you, nor will I cause any trouble for the fifth war zone. Otherwise, I wouldn't have led you to that treasure trove back then."

As he spoke, he walked over to Wang Zhan, patted his shoulder, and said with a laugh, "I've already told you, just put your heart at ease. There's no need to worry about those things. The priority right now is to protect the fifth war zone, isn't it? If the fifth war zone's defence is breached, then nothing else will matter."

Even though Luo Tianhong said this, Wang Zhan still harbored most suspicions. After all, Luo Tianhong was excessively mysterious, and there were too many unexplainable things about him. Wang Zhan was naturally worried that something unexpected might occur. Moreover, his relationship with Luo Tianhong was considered quite close, at least in the eyes of others. If Luo Tianhong caused any losses to the camp, all the trouble would fall on him.

"First, tell me, where exactly do the beasts intend for the main Battlefield to be, for the decisive battle against us humans?"

"Just follow me, and you'll find out. Relax, I definitely won't trick you. In fact, I'll even take you to do some rather exciting things. Believe me, sticking with me definitely won't disappoint you."

Luo Tianhong quickly explained a few points. It was clear he had everything under control, yet he always gave Wang Zhan an indescribable feeling.

But with a great battle imminent, internal strife was naturally not good. He just needed to be a bit wary of Luo Tianhong. Although he didn't know Luo Tianhong's trump card or the true extent of his strength, he himself possessed the Deep Fire Blade and also had the Heavenly Dragon Armor's support. So, naturally, he didn't need to worry too much.

Soon, Wang Zhan arranged for Luo Tianhong to stay in the camp. Then, he went to Bai Yu's room and said, "You claim to be battle-hardened, don't you? Can you discern what realm Luo Tianhong is at?"

"It seems your confusion is similar to mine. I initially found him quite mysterious, unable to discern his realm. There are only two possibilities: either his realm far surpasses ours, with too great a disparity between us, leading to this result, or..."

"But we can't rule out other possibilities. For instance, what if he genuinely doesn't know how to control the energy Between Heaven and Earth?"

Wang Zhan had indeed never considered this point. He didn't believe Luo Tianhong was a helpless little girl with no strength to truss a chicken. In fact, he suspected Luo Tianhong was deliberately concealing his true power. After all, based on his current appearance, those demonic beasts from earlier could have easily finished him off. After all, when they first spotted Luo Tianhong, he was right in the middle of a pack of beasts. If everyone hadn't been sharp-eyed, he would have been torn apart by the crowd by now.

According to Bai Yu's intended meaning, Luo Tianhong was evidently using some means to conceal his true strength. But anyone capable of doing this would naturally be a great expert. Could it be that Luo Tianhong, who looked like just a child, had actually deceived his eyes?

Thinking of this, Wang Zhan's expression changed slightly, and the fist he was clenching gradually tightened.

Luo Tianhong appeared harmless, yet concealed extremely formidable strength. If he truly were an enemy, then things would become troublesome. Wang Zhan was now caught in a dilemma: should he really take action against Luo Tianhong?

Bai Yu had been around Wang Zhan for some time and naturally understood him very well. He glanced at Wang Zhan and then asked, "What's wrong? Are you starting to distrust that little girl now?"
