CHAPTER 123: CHAPTER 123: OVERLOOKING FROM ABOVE, TAKING FULL ADVANTAGE!

The fire-tipped arrows on the Monster Winged Dragon spread from the point of impact, as if they were alive, quickly turning it into a fiercely burning fireball!

The Monster Winged Dragon screamed and rolled on the ground, also igniting its companions on the ground. As five fireballs rose simultaneously, Lin Yue heard a cheer from an unknown direction.

Who?

He did not get up but remained prone under the sheepskin, patiently waiting for the situation to develop.

However, he did not expect that there were actually other people in this place as well.

Lin Yue couldn’t help but think of Tokyo Tower that time, didn’t he encounter Korun and his group? Guo Lei was also around the Tokyo Tower at that time...

Earth is so big, yet every time it seems the Secret Realm Gate opens, he almost always encounters others. What is the system trying to do?

"Puchi." Bai waited by Lin Yue’s side for his command, the little one was very clear that the reason his master was not coming out lightly was to avoid falling into a passive position.

Although their strength was strong, venturing out blindly would definitely put them at a disadvantage.

Lin Yue watched as the corpse of the Monster Winged Dragon gradually turned into black charcoal and remained motionless, still waiting for the person who launched the fire arrow to show up.

The opponent seemed to know the weak points of the Monster Winged Dragon very well; it seemed they should also be a frequent visitor to the Secret Realm, otherwise, it would be impossible.

However, the opponent was quite patient, showing no signs of coming out even now.

Unless they just arrived at the battlefield; otherwise, they must have seen him and Bai lingering outside and certainly saw him shoot the five Monster Winged Dragons,

They might even know exactly where he was hiding.

But this person could really hold their calm, staying hidden all this time.

Could they have left? Probably not.

Wait a bit longer.

Time passed slowly, Lin Yue even felt the ground was a bit cold, turning to glance at Bai, he hadn’t expected the little one to be so composed.

Suddenly, a whistle came from outside, then someone yelled loudly as if addressing him.

However, Lin Yue really couldn’t understand the language, and he didn’t respond at all.

Subsequently, someone shouted again, seemingly in English, which Lin Yue understood.

"Come out with your hands up, or we’ll kill you? Goodness, what the hell is this."

Lin Yue placed several Crossbow Arrows beside him, aimed the Alloy Compound Crossbow at the outside.

The bakery he was in was quite large, making it quite suitable for hiding and even guerrilla warfare.

Also, the entrance was parallel to the wall, not protruding, attacking him from the front or a slant would be impossible.

If the opponent appeared in his front or at an angle, then he would be the one counterattacking.

While Lin Yue was strategizing, the opponent shouted again. He caught the gist of "We have many people. If you don’t come out on your own, don’t blame us for charging in."

Goodness, I have to listen and translate at the same time.

Lin Yue remarked, system, can you please add a translation feature in this Secret Realm, it’s somewhat inhumane to only have Storage Space accessible.

If everyone could form a small chat group before a dialogue, at least pre-battle, they could at least greet each other’s parents or something, wouldn’t that be nice?

However, despite the threats, Lin Yue still did not go out.

Going out would get me shot full of arrows.

Next up, let’s see who can endure loneliness the longest.

Turning on the flashlight, Lin Yue glanced around inside the bakery.

This shop was at the bottom of that row of apartment buildings.

Could there be another exit or something here? Wait, wasn’t it that things in the Secret Realm can be stored in the Storage Space? How about walls?

A flash of inspiration struck him, and Lin Yue gently retreated inside the shop, placing down the sheepskin and stuffing a piece of wood underneath, giving Bai a motion.

"Puchi?" This time Bai was confused; what was the master planning?

The bakery was dark and dreary, but it seemed spacious towards the back. Lin Yue gently searched around, finding no stairs leading to the second floor.

With a flashlight in hand, Lin Yue remembered to scoop items into the Storage Space wherever he went, reaching the oven in the back kitchen, he just stored one when he unexpectedly found a rusty metal door.

A door? Could it lead to the back? Seems like my luck is good.

Originally considering whether to try storing the back wall into the Storage Space, he now found it seemed unnecessary.

"Puchi." Bai indicated there was no danger behind the door, and Lin Yue touched the door, storing it in his Storage Space.

A beam of light instantly entered the dark back kitchen, and Lin Yue also leaned against the wall at the same time, after waiting a little, he stepped into the high grass at the back of the house.

"There sure are many cars back here." Behind the apartment buildings was a parking lot, filled with cars of various sizes, though most were rusted and decayed.

A small car is actually not very large in volume, Lin Yue calculated, the smaller ones were around 3 cubic meters, the larger ones four or five, with his current 42 cubic meters of Storage Space, he could theoretically fit six or seven after accounting for necessary items.

Even so, he must first eliminate danger before considering this.

So, should he go around the front or just leave directly?

Leaving might not be feasible, he looked ahead, there was a vast open area beyond the apartment buildings, which seemed as if something was intended to be built with a large expanse already paved with concrete, beyond that was an unimpressive road, though sparsely dotted with trees.

If he proceeded forward and encountered any enemies or if those from behind pursued, there would be no place to hide. If caught in a pincer attack, that would be a disaster.

Moreover, such open visibility was the perfect spot for a Monster Winged Dragon attack.

Perhaps, his only option was to circle around the building and confront those people head-on? Or should he...

Lin Yue glanced around and suddenly found an escape ladder in the farthest corner at the back of the building.

"Bai, keep on guard." Lin Yue removed his Exoskeleton, wearing only the Bone Armor, and sprinted quickly.

He could hear people ahead still shouting, but that no longer mattered.

Let’s hope this metal escape ladder hasn’t rusted away after decades.

Lin Yue called Bai, and man and pet quickly started climbing up, Lin Yue discovered that despite rust markings everywhere, the ladder seemed quite sturdy, with thick treads and no deformation.

Climbing all the way to the 12th floor, Lin Yue reached the rooftop.

The wind was stronger up high than below, this place was filled with rusty machines of various sizes and even had a not-too-small water tower, though it was completely damaged, covered with what seemed like feces.

Lin Yue didn’t venture onto the rooftop immediately, but placed a sheepskin over himself, slowly moving to the edge to look down.

A mass of charcoal radiating a strong odor came into view, and the shouting seemed to continue.

What is with these people, can’t we just leave each other alone, why must it be life or death?

Lin Yue expressed his disbelief.

He shook his head and set up the crossbow, aiming at the ground from the rooftop.

Overlooking everything from above, he held the advantage!
