After exploring for about twenty minutes, the loud crack of a breaking tree suddenly echoed from the dense forest ahead of their camp, followed by two gunshots.
The three of them heard the commotion simultaneously. Their hearts sank, and they hurriedly returned to the camp to regroup.
Huang Qianggang showed Sun Zhe a newly acquired AK-47 rifle and said, "Doctor Sun, let's go check it out. It might be the herb-gathering team!"
Sun Zhe had the exact same idea. Without another word, he sprinted toward the sound, completely ignoring his own injuries. Leaping into the trees, he pushed his Witch's Step to its absolute limit.
「Soon.」
Sun Zhe was the first to arrive at the source of the noise. He was startled to find that a large swath of trees had been snapped and broken, completely leveling the area.
