Isabel was speechless.

The others were also at a loss for words.

Well Known was simply a very slippery fellow, utterly different from John Doe, who had a straightforward and aggressive manner!

“What happened just now? Since you think it had nothing to do with you, we want an explanation.”

The Egyptt guru walked out and stared intently at Fang Qiu.

“That’s right.”

“You were the closest to the relic gate. Moreover, the appearance and disappearance of the relic gate were in sync with your movements of stepping on the stone. Even if it had nothing to do with you, you must know something about it. What did you see just now?”

“Or, are you trying to conceal anything?”

The people of all forces asked for an answer, one after another.

“You all have a very active imagination.”

Fang Qiu shook his head with a wry smile.

It had never crossed his mind that these people were so obsessed with the relic that they associated this matter with him.

“I didn’t see anything special just now. As you have seen, no matter what I did, nothing happened. If you want me to stay and step on the stone with more than a hundred different postures, I’ll do it. But do you think it’ll help?”

Fang Qiu pursed his mouth and eyed these people with discontent and added, “If I knew any secrets, how could I stay here and argue with you? I would have left long ago without even a second glance at these insignificant Spiritual Herbs.”

“In addition, the relic gate is right here. Since you want this relic gate so much, you won’t leave unless it is opened. Even if I know something, I must go through the gate to enter the relic. In any case, I’ll have to do it with you guys around. So, why should I keep the news from you?”

He finished his short speech.

The others were all struck dumb for a minute.

“What he said made sense.”

“That seemed to be the case.”

“He wouldn’t do it unless the relic had other entrances, but I have never heard of any. All relics from earliest times to the present day have only one entrance, the only access to the relics.”

“Even if he knows something, he has to go through the relic gate. We are all here, so we are not afraid of his tricks.”

“The appearance of the relic entrance could very likely have been caused by other factors. No one had a chance to see the gate clearly, but at least we can be sure that no one has entered it. As long as we wait here, the relic gate will appear again.”

They discussed this issue animatedly.

The Egyptt guru looked into Fang Qiu’s eyes for a while. Then he turned his head and glanced at the group of Huaxia people before he turned and walked back to his team.

Not far away…

The youth from Itali, whose body could become transparent, also stared intently at Fang Qiu, but unlike the Egyptt guru, there was no coldness in his eyes. Instead, he had a gentle smile, which made him appear pretty amiable.

The two gurus gave up questioning Well Known.

Other forces at the scene also gave up this idea.

However…

No one could forget about the big black stone.

They shifted their attention from Fang Qiu to the large black rock and surrounded it again. To open it, they tried various methods and did all the movements they could think of from all angles.

As a result…

All their efforts were in vain.

Eventually, since nothing happened, everyone accepted the idea that the appearance of the relic gate had nothing to do with the big black stone or Well Known.

They emptied the Spiritual Herbs in the field, and the relic gate never reappeared. In this situation, the crowd dispersed peacefully. Each group found a place near the Spiritual Herb field and waited quietly for the ruin to appear automatically.

Perhaps…

When it came forth, the Pharaoh relic would open!

The sky grew darker.

Everyone squatted among the waist-deep grass and waited in silence.

In this place and under such circumstances, no groups dared to rest in the center of the field, though it was very spacious over there.

After all, they had just experienced a fierce battle.

All the groups, large or small, suffered losses but also gained rewards.

If any team rested in public, the others might covet their possessions.

Hiding in the grass was much safer. As long as one of them kept guard, the others could rest and recuperate in whatever way they liked. They could not see each other, so no one dared to launch sneak attacks or rob others at will.

Like the other groups…

Under the leadership of Luoyun, the Huaxia group also found a place in the grass to hide and rest.

The surroundings gradually quietened down.

Soon, Fang Qiu approached the Huaxia team.

His group made up of individual cultivators had already dispersed.

After all…

The overall strength of his previous team was not strong enough to challenge those medium and large forces. Although there were strong ones among them, they couldn’t compete with gurus, no matter how strong they were.

The Egyptt guru was invincible.

Some of the people in this temporary team had been scared away by his mighty presence. At the same time, some lost their lives after being bitten by the Pharaoh Snakes which came from the ground, or died after they inhaled the poisonous fog.

The rest of the people left when they saw they could no longer trust and depend on each other.

Sure enough…

Fang Qiu knew these people didn’t go far away and only stayed in the distance as they waited for the appearance of the Pharaoh ruin. Meanwhile, with the Spiritual Herbs they had just grabbed, they began to restore their consumed physical strength and energy.

On the other side…

When Fang Qiu came to the place where the Huaxia team rested, the others just glanced casually at him. They did not think it was necessary to say more.

All of them knew that Fang Qiu was John Doe.

Therefore, they were confident they could accomplish their mission with this relic.

In their eyes…

Even the strongest group here had only one guru.

In contrast, their team had two gurus.

Luoyun was a genuine guru.

As for John Doe, they were not sure if he was a guru, but at least they knew he had the strength to kill a guru.

In this situation…

Though the overall strength of the Huaxia team ranked first among all the forces on the spot, they hadn’t shown their power yet.

Upon their arrival…

Fang Qiu paused for a moment and listened carefully as he checked out his surroundings. Then he waved his right hand and formed a soundproof shield around this place by controlling his internal Qi. It even covered the ground. In this way, he could prevent others from eavesdropping on their conversation.

“All of you come here and take some of these Spiritual Herbs.”

After making the sound-proof cover, Fang Qiu took off the backpack full of Spiritual Herbs on his back, put it on the ground, and said to everyone, “The Qi of Heaven and Earth here is thin. Although it has been gradually gathering, the speed is too slow. These Spiritual Herbs are not as good as Earth Treasures, but they also have quite a bit of Qi of Heaven and Earth. Maybe we’ll need it later.”

Hearing his words…

No one stood on ceremony.

Everyone took some.

They took out the Spiritual Herbs they had grabbed earlier and divided them evenly. In the end, Fang Qiu still had half a backpack of Spiritual Herbs.

“I didn’t have time to chat with you before, and now I can take this opportunity to talk to you.”

Fang Qiu sat down and asked, “Why would these people fight so desperately for the Pharaoh relic and Spiritual Herbs? These Spiritual Herbs are inferior to Earth Treasures, so it made no difference who got the bulk. The Pharaoh relic seemed attractive, but no one knew what was inside. Were these people overly enthusiastic? Even Itali and Greacie have sent their teams here!”

“Those two teams are different.”

Luoyun shook his head with a smile and said, “The Itali group you mentioned belongs to Roma Shrine, one of the leading forces in Itali. You’ve seen their leader who looks much younger than his age. I heard that he is one of the two Elf successors of Roma Shrine.”

“You know there is one with the gun from Greacie? His name is Mousolini. He is the leader of the Hunter Squad under Styx, the best force in Europa. One of his subordinates died in Zangjiang.”

Fang Qiu listened to his narration.

He nodded to show he knew all of this.

However, he felt even more puzzled.

“Even these two forces have sent people here. Isn’t everyone excessively passionate about this relic?”

Fang Qiu asked again.

“That’s right.”

Luoyun shook his head and said, “In the current world, competition between countries is basically related to economy, finance, trade, minerals, various resources, and the competitive bidding and output of large-scale projects.”

“Armed strength is needed for all the countries to enhance their competitiveness. Each country has to use force to protect the interests it has gained.”

“Countries with greater armed strength can profit more in the abovementioned aspects.”

When he said that…

After a short pause, Luoyun went on, “As we all know, this world is very mysterious. Among all the resources we know, there are only two ways to replenish and enhance strength: Heaven and Earth Treasures and ancient relics.”

“However, Heaven and Earth Treasures are hard to come by. Beyond that, anyone who comes across it first won’t hesitate to take it away. Therefore, there are seldom fights for Heaven and Earth Treasures. Some people who encounter Heaven Treasures or Earth Treasures might fear they can’t compete with others, so they will even pick them before they mature.”

“The relic is different.”

“Not everyone can open a relic. Usually, it takes a long time for a relic to be found and opened. Beyond Heaven and Earth Treasures, more magical things might be in the ruins. Thus, all the countries and forces in the world attach great importance to relics.”

“After all, like Heaven and Earth Treasures, when one occupies something in a relic, no others can have it. As one benefits, the others will lose. Therefore, everyone will make every endeavor to vie for a relic as soon as it appears.”

Speaking of which…

Luoyun smiled, pointed to the Spiritual Herbs, and said, “In the past, we would never dare to take Spiritual Herbs for our personal use. We would bring them back. Although they were not as good as Earth Treasures, they could help many people who had just begun practicing. But now the situation is different. With your Heaven Dew, we no longer value Spiritual Herbs. However, we had to do something when all the others were scrambling for them. Otherwise, we wouldn’t even bother to take them.”

“They struggled for these herbs to improve the comprehensive strength of their countries. Nowadays, battles using thermal weapons are no longer suitable for this world. Martial arts practitioners are needed to avoid wars. According to the strength of these practitioners, countries will vie with each other to prove who is better and strive for resources. By doing so, capable countries can enhance their national strength!”

At this point…

Fang Qiu finally understood.

No wonder these people were so crazy. No wonder even Egyptt would send a guru over. There were deep-rooted reasons for all of this!
