Chapter 503: Island of Devil's Maw (9)

You monsters! Your vicious words will not work on me! After Pegasus saw the monster trees for what they were, he became less scared of them. He shouted at them. Take this! Pegasasu Rysei Ken!

Hundreds of silvery white punches shot out like meteors and landed on the trees. But the effect was practically non-existent.

Ha ha ha ha The mocking trees that were hit by the skill started to laugh in unison. They were not only unharmed by the skill, they started to mock the man because of it. You hit like a girl! Ha ha ha

Damn you Pegasus' anger was slowly ignited and he prepared himself for another round of the skill.

Save your energy. Feng Bujue walked to his side and used a calm tone to stop him. At the same time, he reached out to press on the man's shoulder. They are not afraid of your attack. If anything, they are luring you to continue to attacking them.

So you are trying to say these trees are masochists? Atobe at the side added.

If that is a joke, then it is not that funny. Ambitionist said, If that was an analysis then it's too weak. Feng Bujue added, Obviously, these trees are trying to delay us. He looked around them. They kept trash-talking to anger us and trying to make us to attack them. His eyes turned back to Pegasus. And attacking will only waste your energy and time with no reward to get out of it.

Oh Pegasus nodded. You have a point. He stopped with the aggression. I understand it now. I need to ignore these bunch of monsters and calm myself.

That's right. Feng Bujue then turned back to Atobe. Continue to lead the way.

Hearing that, Atobe turned to abide by the order. While the players were conversing, the mocking trees still had not stopped with their trash-talking. Now that the five had decided to continue with their journey, the trees started to taunt them with even harsher words that could not be written down here. However, since the group had decided to ignore them, they tried their best to filter out the noises. They picked up their pace, buried their heads and focused on their journey forward. Soon the group arrived at the heart of the mocking forest. The trees here were thicker and more intensely grown together. The vines and branches were like tentacles that blocked the players' way forward. It was at this point that Atobe's All Trash-Talking Tree Sprite Must Die came to shine.

Ah! Ah! Do you know what you are doing? You bastards! When the axe hit the vines, the trees kept groaning and cursing.

Of course, I do. Atobe showed no trace of compassion. He gladly went chopping with the axe. Why else do you think I am having such a good time? He was playing the role of someone from the chaotic evil camp perfectly. He grinned wickedly as he chopped down the vines that blocked their way. At that moment, Feng Bujue who followed behind Atobe appeared to have figured out something. He turned his head around to ask, by the way, Uncle Worthless, can you lend me a fire?

Without saying a second word, Uncle Worthless took out a lighter from his pocket and tossed it to Brother Jue.

Thanks. Brother Jue caught the lighter from the air. Then he picked up a small branch from the ground and tried to light it up.

What are you doing? Seeing that, Pegasus asked.

Turning to burn it to see if we can use it as burning material. Feng Bujue replied.

Oh Ambitionist understood the meaning behind it immediately. Good idea.

What are they talking about? Pegasus asked like a confused boy.

He is trying to see how long these trees' branches can burn. Ambitionist explained. After all, these are trees that can take Pegasasu Rysei Ken without any damage, they have to be quite special.

I get it now At this point, Uncle Worthless got it as well. Assuming these mocking trees' branches can be lit up, and they can burn for a long time. Then we should collect some of them just in case we might need them in the future.

Yes, that is correct. Ambitionist added, From the general setting of this scenario, gathering firewood to build a fire to keep warm or to cook food is inevitable. There is no reason not to be prepared beforehand.

While they were talking, Feng Bujue had already achieved some result. A ha! I knew they are flammable! He took some time but eventually he got the branch he was holding to burn. Brother Jue tossed the lighter back to Uncle Worthless and swiftly took out the anti-gravity gun from his inventory. He floated the small burning stick before him. Now we need to see how long this thing can burn.

hey! You bastard! A mocking tree next to them interrupted noisily. Do you think what you're doing can change the fact that you will eventually die? You self-indulgent idiot! Your brain is the size of a mole's genitalia! You are a maggot wiggling between the gap of idiocy and pride! What you are doing is meaningless! Just like translating How to learn German' into german!

Ha ha Feng Bujue laughed at the tree. What's wrong? Why are you so annoyed? Am I burning your little beep?

You bitch! With that horrible mouth of yours! If you dare, come closer, we'll fight one on one! The mocking tree taunted.

I am not going over there. Feng Bujue replied the tree with an extremely annoying laugh. If you dare, come and hit me then~ Idiot~

Hey, hey on one hand, you told us to ignore these trees, but now you seem to be enjoying yourself shooting air with them. Ambitionist groaned. Are you trying to gather as much insults as you can so you can use them yourself in the future?

Stop interrupting me Uchicha, one day, you will die before me and your last word will be since there is already Zhou Yu, why the heavens still give existence to Zhu Ge Liang?'.

Why did you turn on me now? Have you lost your mind?

Well, a little banter can help pass the time. We have nothing better to do anyway. Feng Bujue shrugged. After a while, Brother Jue leaned in to check the branch that was enwreathed in flames. Hmm as expected, even after burning for so long, the size of the branch has not dwindled for a bit and there is no trace of ash either. He said as he loosened the button on the gun, instantly the branch fell to the ground. He stepped multiple times on it. Hmm very good, it's much easier to put it out than to light it.

He put away the gun and then added, Such a safe and valuable firewood material. I am quite surprised at how good quality they are. If the girl selling the matches has her matches made from these trees, then the story wouldn't have such a bad ending. At this point, he paused for a second, like he was thinking about something, Oh, of course if her father is a mad molester, then a few years later, the story will still

Hey! That is enough out of you! Ambitionist interrupted him with a shout, Are we going back to the topic that would make you heated again? Is your mind always in the gutter?

Ah I have no idea what you two are talking about. Pegasus added with a blank expression, but it feels like you two share a good relationship.

nonsense! Ambitionist roared back. This man is not even in my friendlist.

Hey, guys! Suddenly Atobe who had been cutting the trees shouted. He had stopped moving and turned back to give his teammates a look. Looks like we've run into some trouble
