Qin Siyang's words were always indifferent.
It seemed like he was accustomed to venturing deep outside the safe zone.
But Gu Yunpeng had a completely different feeling.
All his life, he had lived under perfect protection.
Every time he left the safe zone, there were always two [Insurer] guarding him.
Moreover, he had never entered the deep parts outside the safe zone.
So he had never thought about how unsafe it actually was outside the safe zone.
Today, since he was following Qin Siyang, he couldn't bring his own [Insurer].
For the first time, he witnessed people his age actually risking their lives outside the safe zone.
He had always assumed that Qin Siyang must have some special trick to find treasures.
Now that he was following Qin Siyang, he realized that the first rule of finding treasures—was staking one's life.
'Staking my life?'
Gu Yunpeng fell into deep thought about this question.
Qin Siyang's words were indifferent, and his eyes were calm.
But beneath that, there was a hidden ferocity.
This left a deep impression on Gu Yunpeng.
At the same time, Zhao Sifang also felt that Qin Siyang seemed completely different from the people of his age that he knew.
That indescribable aura he had, felt more like his father and his uncle.
"If you guys feel it's too dangerous, you can go back."
"Brother-in-law, are you going back?"
"No. I still want to see more."
"Then I won't go back either."
"Have you two ever killed a mid-tier god before?"
"Twice, but with the help of [Insurer]."
"Same here."
"Having experience is good."
Qin Siyang said calmly, "The ones appearing here are all mid-tier gods. You two, stay alert. Though I will take the initiative to kill the gods, there's no guarantee that one won't ambush and attack you both. Don't get too relaxed and end up losing your lives."
"Got it."
Just as the words left his mouth, Qin Siyang suddenly felt three shadows appear behind him without any warning.
He turned around to look.
It was actually three Ghost-Faced Herons.
Qin Siyang frowned.
'These birds can move in groups?'
The Ghost-Faced Herons flew at extreme speed.
With a single dive, they shot toward the three of them like arrows.
Qin Siyang immediately sprinted forward, luring one Ghost-Faced Heron away.
Then, he shouted at Zhao Sifang and Gu Yunpeng, "One per person, lucky you!"
Zhao Sifang and Gu Yunpeng were both stunned.
'One per person?'
'Is Qin Siyang joking with his life?'
'These are mid-tier gods!'
They had killed mid-tier gods before.
But never alone.
Without [Insurer] helping, how were they supposed to kill one?
And "lucky you"?
Who was lucky?
The Ghost-Faced Herons?
Giving them all a fair share so they could all feast together?
At this moment, shouldn't they be sticking together, getting swallowed by one Ghost-Faced Heron, and then fighting their way out together?
Zhao Sifang immediately said, "Brother-in-law, we can't escape, let's stick together!"
"Alright!"
One Ghost-Faced Heron swallowed Qin Siyang.
Another swallowed Zhao Sifang and Gu Yunpeng.
The remaining Ghost-Faced Heron let out a sharp screech, furious to the point of madness.
As darkness fell before his eyes, Qin Siyang knew he was inside the Ghost-Faced Heron's mouth again.
He smirked.
'Things are different now!'
The last time he was inside a Ghost-Faced Heron's stomach, his sequence level was only 3, and he hadn't awakened [Banquet Domain] yet.
Now, with this life-saving skill, there was no way the Ghost-Faced Heron could kill him.
Plus, he had the Short Bee Dagger—this god-hunting weapon.
Killing the Ghost-Faced Heron was no problem at all.
Since he had fought one before, he already knew that the Ghost-Faced Heron's weakness lay in the lizardfish inside its stomach, which counteracted its powerful regeneration ability.
Qin Siyang drew the Short Bee Dagger and stabbed it directly into the Ghost-Faced Heron's mouth.
BOOM—
A loud crash followed, and Qin Siyang felt a violent impact.
When the shaking stopped, he had already slid down the Ghost-Faced Heron's throat into its stomach.
Qin Siyang chuckled.
'Perfect!'
He grabbed a few lizardfish and immediately activated [Banquet Domain], appearing on the Ghost-Faced Heron's back.
Then, he activated [Violence], locked onto its heart, clenched the lizardfish, and started throwing rapid punches.
Thanks to his increased sequence level, his attacks were several times stronger than last time.
And since the Ghost-Faced Heron was paralyzed by the Short Bee Dagger, it couldn't move at all.
It had no choice but to endure Qin Siyang's barrage of attacks.
After a few dozen punches at the same spot, he broke through the Ghost-Faced Heron's body and shattered its heart.
Then, he cleanly inserted the lizardfish into the heart, ensuring it couldn't regenerate.
Finally, he quickly climbed up to the Ghost-Faced Heron's mouth and retrieved his Short Bee Dagger.
The whole process took only twenty seconds.
Qin Siyang exhaled in relief, "I'm done over here. Xiao Zhao and Brother-in-law have both killed mid-tier gods before, so they should be about done too…"
He had assumed that, with their two or three hundred thousand hunting points, they should be able to take down a Ghost-Faced Heron as well.
But when he turned around, the two Ghost-Faced Herons were nowhere to be seen.
Looking up, he saw two tiny silhouettes in the sky, flying further and further away.
'Huh?'
'The Ghost-Faced Herons aren't sticking together?'
'They just leave their comrade behind?'
Qin Siyang frowned, "Xiao Zhao and Brother-in-law… Are they planning to kill the Ghost-Faced Heron mid-air?"
But judging from the Ghost-Faced Herons' smooth flight, they didn't seem injured at all.
"…Could it be that these two got trapped inside the Ghost-Faced Herons' stomachs?"
"They don't know about using lizardfish to counteract the Ghost-Faced Herons' regeneration?"
"Wait, is this something only I figured out? Not common knowledge?"
Qin Siyang furrowed his brows, feeling that Zhao Sifang and Brother-in-law's situation wasn't looking good.
He had to save them.
Not to mention that Zhao Sifang was a good friend.
If Zhao Sifang died, Zhao Longteng and Zhao Longfei would never let him off the hook.
And on top of that, his brother-in-law was there too.
Qin Siyang immediately grabbed two lizardfish.
Since [Banquet Domain] was still active, he used it to teleport.
Chasing after the two flying Ghost-Faced Herons at full speed.
At the same time, he shouted, "Hey, dumb birds! Come eat your granddaddy!"
The Ghost-Faced Herons turned back and saw Qin Siyang appearing in mid-air.
For a moment, they froze.
They seemed confused, 'How did this guy get up here?'
But their confusion quickly faded.
One of the Ghost-Faced Herons immediately lunged forward and swallowed Qin Siyang.
Darkness filled his vision again.
A familiar feeling.
Qin Siyang didn't resist and slid straight into the Ghost-Faced Heron's stomach.
"Xiao Zhao, Brother-in-law, you guys here—Wait, what the hell? Where is everyone? Did they already dissolve into liquid?"
"Xiao Zhao's armor looked expensive, it wouldn't dissolve this fast! Brother-in-law must be gone!"
"Brother-in-law, farewell! Thanks for the First Strike Boots!"
Since no one was here, there was no need to waste time.
He had to rescue Xiao Zhao quickly.
Qin Siyang immediately activated [Banquet Domain], appearing above the Ghost-Faced Heron's back. He grabbed onto its feathers and provoked the other Ghost-Faced Heron, which had already flown further away.
"Oi! That dumb bird can't handle me, come eat your granddaddy instead! I'll give you a chance!!"
