Chu He did not know where Scarface got his confidence from.
Perhaps the other party was truly strong, or perhaps they possessed powerful Items.
But as it stood, these four people had no malice toward him for the time being.
"It seems I need to form my own Blood Alliance as soon as possible."
"Blood Alliance members can actually enter the game together; this advantage is too great!" Chu He thought to himself.
He followed a few meters behind Scarface and his group of four.
At this distance, if Scarface and his group suddenly attacked him, he would be able to react in time.
"Captain, that guy behind us seems very wary of us!"
The only woman among the four turned her head to glance at Chu He and spoke to Scarface.
"If he weren't wary of us, that would be the problem."
"If the situation were reversed, and you and I entered the game alone while everyone else belonged to one Blood Alliance, wouldn't you and I be wary too?"
"We just need to demonstrate our powerful Strength, let him see our power, and he will join our Blood Alliance."
"Our Blood Alliance has been at war with the Wolf Pack Blood Alliance recently, and members have suffered heavy casualties. The Boss said that as long as we recruit Blood Alliance members, we can earn merit."
"With enough merit, we can become official members."
"So you all listen to me: you must give your all in this game. No one is allowed to mess up, understand?"
Scarface looked at his three teammates beside him and said in a deep voice.
"Don't worry, Captain."
"There won't be any problems!" another thin man laughed.
Scarface said no more.
The four of them quickened their pace.
Chu He immediately quickened his pace to keep up with them.
He hadn't heard what Scarface and his group were saying just now.
But now that there was a group of vanguards willing to take the lead, he was naturally happy to see it.
If there really was any danger, they would be the first to be attacked, giving him time to respond calmly.
After the previous two Mist Games, Chu He had completely abandoned his dismissive attitude.
He no longer believed that having powerful Talent and Skills meant he could act recklessly in the Mist Game.
After all, no one could guarantee what kind of dangerous Enemy would appear in the Mist Game.
The group of five walked over a hundred meters along the mycelium-covered streets of the small town.
During this time, they did not encounter any danger at all.
The Enemy had not appeared yet.
When things are abnormal, there must be something strange going on.
Even though this was his first time participating in an E-rank game, he knew very well that the difficulty of the game could not possibly be this low.
The Enemy might have already appeared, only to have lurked and remained undetected.
Perhaps the moment they let their guard down, the Enemy would appear and deliver a fatal blow.
Chu He had already equipped his Security Guard Uniform and Riot Baton, holding the Burning Medal in his Left Hand, ready to equip it at any moment to deal with any appearing Enemy.
A few minutes later, a Mutation occurred.
The green vines crawling over the buildings suddenly bloomed and bore Fruit.
These Fruits were grayish-white and very large, each one exceeding two meters.
Chu He looked around and saw that there were two or three hundred of these grayish-white Fruits on the surrounding buildings.
"Defensive formation!" Scarface shouted.
The four of them immediately set up their formation.
The three men, including Scarface, shielded the woman in the center.
The woman took out a short ram-headed staff, held it with both hands, and looked around vigilantly.
Pop...
A crisp sound of bursting pulp rang out.
A grayish-white Fruit ruptured.
From inside this grayish-white Fruit, a humanoid creature crawled out.
This creature was completely naked but had no reproductive organs. Its body was surrounded by a large amount of mycelium; these mycelia seemed to have grown from within its body and were completely connected to its skin.
The part of its head above the mouth looked like damp, rotting Wood, covered in a large number of tiny mushrooms.
Inside its mouth, a large amount of wriggling mycelium emerged, looking exceptionally disgusting.
【Fungal Mutant, E-rank, HP 100】
As the first Fungal Mutant "hatched" from the grayish-white Fruit, other grayish-white Fruits also ruptured one after another.
In an instant, two or three hundred Fungal Mutants appeared near Chu He and the others.
Almost at the same time, they let out eerie roars, jumped down from the buildings, and charged toward Chu He and the others.
Chu He's expression changed, and he immediately equipped the Burning Aura while retreating.
The position he was currently in was still relatively safe.
The number of Fungal Mutants in his immediate vicinity was not high.
More Fungal Mutants were near Scarface and his group.
They helped Chu He attract a large amount of firepower.
Chu He only needed to deal with thirty or forty Fungal Mutants now.
They had one hundred HP.
Even with the Burning Aura, it would take two seconds of burning to kill them.
Two seconds was not a long time.
But given the speed of these Fungal Mutants, it was enough for them to reach his side.
To avoid being caught in Close Combat, Chu He kept retreating, maintaining his distance from them.
When the Fungal Mutants approached him, their bodies began to burn with Flame.
But they did not retreat at all; instead, they increased their running speed and closed in on Chu He.
It was as if it wasn't their own bodies that were burning.
Furthermore, they opened their mouths, and the mycelium extending from within them rapidly elongated, attacking Chu He.
"If I get entangled by these mycelia, it will be troublesome," Chu He thought to himself.
Chu He did not know what these mycelia were, but he did not want to be entangled by them.
He swung his Riot Baton, breaking the mycelia that were approaching him.
Two seconds later, the Fungal Mutants near him were burned to death by the Burning Aura. They did not turn into black mist and disappear, but instead suddenly exploded, turning into mycelium that merged into the ground.
Seeing this, a look of shock appeared in Chu He's eyes.
"What is going on?"
The Fungal Mutants did not dissipate into black mist upon death like other creatures in the Mist Game, but instead turned into mycelium and merged into the ground.
This made him feel that something was wrong.
However, now was not the time to think about this.
Dealing with these Fungal Mutants first was the most critical thing.
He moved his body constantly, using the Burning Aura to finish off all the Fungal Mutants chasing him.
He looked toward the Fungal Mutants surrounding Scarface in front.
Because there were too many Fungal Mutants surrounding them, he could not see the situation of Scarface and his group.
Chu He was hesitating whether to go and provide Support.
Based on the attacks of those Fungal Mutants just now, he felt that these Fungal Mutants were similar to a Walking Corpse and posed no threat.
As long as he was careful about the mycelium in their mouths, it would be no problem for him to deal with them.
Just then, an explosion suddenly occurred at the location where Scarface was surrounded by the Fungal Mutants.
The Flame created by the explosion spread instantly, burning all the surrounding Fungal Mutants to ashes.
Chu He's expression changed.
"Is this a Skill, or an Item?"
"This power is too fierce, isn't it?" Chu He was horrified.
The range of the explosion exceeded thirty meters; with such a large-scale explosion, it was likely that no one at the center of the blast could have survived.
