They spent more than half a day on this quest and finally reached this place after creeping over cautiously. If they just went back after drawing a map, then this will naturally not be befitting of Happy’s personality.
But what Happy did not expect was that Young Yu Yan seemed to have also had the intention of entering deep into the enemy rear since the start. She chose to stay without hesitation and continue searching for the supply route.
Xu Jun could only smile wanly in response to Happy and Young Yu Yan’s choice. He was not at all surprised by this, because they were indeed stronger than he was.
With their strength, they could do a lot of things at the back of the enemy lines, especially Chen Kai, whom he had ignored at the beginning. He had managed to notice the fact that lowering the brightness of clothes could reduce the rate of them being discovered, could think about only carrying out their quest at night, and even discovered the pelt that everyone else ignored to be used as their disguise.
Xu Jun did not suspect that if he followed Chen Kai, he will be able to find the supply point and obtain even more points.
But Xu Jun also knew clearly that with Chen Kai and Young Yu Yan’s skills, even if they could not fight against the enemies at the enemy rear, they could rely on their skills and equipment to break out. It will be worth it for them to take the risk, but if Xu Jun stayed, he will just be marching to his own death.
Once day arrived, the chances of being discovered was as high as the sun rising when morning arrived! The chances of him dying was just as high!
Once he died, his points will return to zero.
He dared not take the risk.
On this night, the trio parted ways.
Xu Jun stayed behind and waited for the map to be completed.
Happy and Young Yu Yan formed a temporary team. They took care of each other and continued moving forward.
At this moment, Happy still had not revealed his real identity.
There was no other reason for it. It was because he knew that once he revealed his identity, Young Yu Yan will definitely become a little dependent on him. This will go against her original goal, and it will be difficult for her to display her real strength.
But now, both of them did not have a deep understanding toward each other. They were only strangers who had just exchanged names and were party members. She still did not believe him and was wary of him. Naturally, when she fought, she could bring out their full power, and it will be easier for her to stimulate the potential hidden deeper within her.

On the plains under the starry sky, two figures quickly moved about sneakily. They will occasionally travel quickly, and sometimes slowly. Sometimes, they walked, and sometimes, they stopped. The map had been completed while they were traveling.
“There’s still the last mission left in the quest. Just where is the supply route?” Young Yu Yan walked in front of Happy and mumbled to herself.
Happy, who was following her closely, suddenly tugged her sleeve.
She was shocked, and she turned her head around to see that Happy had already crouched down to make a shushing motion. “Hush!”
Young Yu Yan looked warily in the direction Happy pointed, but she saw nothing.
That area was empty under the light from the stars, and not a single person could be seen.
“Look carefully.”
Happy did not make any explanations.
Young Yu Yan noticed something from Happy’s solemn and serious expression. She held her breath, focused, and swept across the area. She still saw nothing.
Right when she thought that Chen Kai was making a joke, she suddenly noticed that two small glowing spots appeared around 164 feet ahead of her.
They vanished just as quickly as they disappeared.
In an instant, Young Yu Yan swallowed her words, because she felt two pairs of eyes traveling to her direction. She stiffened up, and she felt a chill run through her body.
“Reconnoiterers?”
“Yeah.”
Happy nodded and verified Young Yu Yan’s judgment. He whispered into her ear, “Fortunately, I discovered him when he moved just now, or else…”
At that moment, they were very close to the enemy’s main camp. In fact, they were already at the rear of the enemy camp. When he thought about how they will be exposed if the reconnoiterers fired a signal flare at night, the patrols will definitely be able to surround the entire region within a very short period of time.
When she thought of this, Young Yu Yan could not help but suck in a sharp breath. But soon, she calmed down her heart.
“They seemed to have discovered us. What should we do now?”
