709 A PILE OF DEAD BODIES

As soon as Arjun said, everyone started to move. They have taken a long nap. So their Mental State was in a perfect state. They started to sprint all the way to the inner region of the forest.

As they were advancing, they all

Immediately encountered Indigo ranked monsters. The Indigo Ranked Monsters each gave 20 points to the one who slay it. So their total kills tally increased steadily. They all felt that their luck was good today.

Jimmy always wondered how exactly the luck works. He wanted to learn the Unique Dao of Luck. But unlike Arjun from the Chaos World, Jimmy who is in the Astral World doesn't have any knowledge or mastery over the Unique Dao of Luck. So he is yet to know how exactly the Luck works.

But right now, it is pointless to think all this. He had the championship in his mind. He aimed for the ultimate championship. He can't stay behind and kill these low level

monsters that give less points.

Arjun said mentally, "Grandfather! Did you encounter any high ranked monsters?"

"No." ,Sitaram replied, "I didn't have any high ranked monsters to slay in front of me. We entered the deeper part of the forest. And seriously, none of us are yet to encounter any other fellow humans either."

"This is definitely strange." ,Gnan said, "Let us consider that this is the plan prepared by the Young Master Luke. If that is the case, then how exactly they prepared any plan which let us not to meet even a single other human being? How exactly are they doing this?"

"We are lucky that we have Young Master with us through whom we can communicate mentally." ,Gutherson said, "If we entered this forest without Young Master, then we would have been under the impression that we are unlucky enough not to encounter any other human being so far."

"But the question at the moment is, what exactly we should do to find the truth?" ,Rick asked in a little frustrating tone.

Arjun thought for a moment and said, "My instincts are telling the that we should take turns. Let's not go straight. Instead, let us take right turn. And quicken the pace of your feet moments. I think we will definitely find something as we don't give any chance for the opponent to erase their movements from our eyes."

"Yes. This is the perfect plan we can execute at the moment." ,Sitaram said, "Everyone! Let us do as Arjun said."

"Yes." ,Everyone replied in unison. They immediately started to move in separate directions. And most importantly, they started to increase pace in their movements.

They started to run as quickly as possible. Arjun also rushed towards unknown destination as quickly as possible. Here none of them had any destination. All they did was nothing but to run as quickly as possible.

While they were running, Arjun received a message from Logan, "Boss! I encountered a rare Blue ranked monster! What exactly should I do now?"

"Yes." ,Logan replied. And as Arjun ordered, everyone started to run towards the destination which they don't have.

As they were running, Alwyn's voice rang out, "Boss! I found something."

"What is it?" ,Arjun asked.

"Dead bodies!" ,Alwyn replied hastily, "A pile of human dead bodies. It was as if they were being collected by some monsters!"

"A pile of dead bodies?" ,Arjun asked, "It looks like they are a team who perished in this tournament. What kind of information you could find from it?"

"I don't know how to describe it." ,Alwyn said, "But I could find some scratches on it's body. These scratches were definitely originated from a monster with sharp claws."

"A monster with sharp claws?" ,Logan asked as he said, "Well, the Blue colour monster that I saw earlier also had the sharp claws. I think this is the deed of the Blue colour monster."

"But who cares about it?" ,Alwyn asked, "Boss! It's unnecessary. What exactly I wanted to say is that from the pool of blood around the dead bodies, it looks like a human passed through it. And that human might be in a rush. Because judging from the distance between each footstep, that human wasn't walking. It looks like he was in a hurry! I think he might be our man!"

"It's possible." ,Gutherson said, "But it is also possible that, that guy is not the man we are looking for. I mean, he wasn't following us. But he was actually running away from the pursuit of a monster."

"That might not be true." ,Jimmy said, "Look at the spot very closely again, Alwyn! Do you find any footprints of a monster around you? Or at least, do you smell anything using your dragon nose?"

Alwyn did exactly as he was asked. And the result came as Arjun expected. Alwyn found traces of footsteps and a scent that belongs to a human.

On reporting, Arjun replied, "Good! Now track the source of the scent and footsteps. Remember! If you found the source, then don't act. Just wait for my instructions."

"Yes." ,Alwyn replied and got himself ready to do as he was ordered. He followed the traces left behind by the source.

After half of the day, Alwyn didn't find any person. He found the monsters that could improve their points tally. But as Arjun said, Alwyn know what was his priorities at the moment. He gave up on the monsters and followed the trace which he found after a long struggle.

Alwyn kept on running following the traces left behind by one of the human. But even after the entire day of pursuing the scent, Alwyn couldn't find the person.

Alwyn said, "This looks pointless. No matter how much I run, I couldn't find any person at all."

"Stop then." ,Arjun smiled and said, "As you have said, it is pointless to pursue them."

"What should we do then?" ,Logan asked as he was worried.

Arjun said, "No need to worry. All this time I was running many situations in my mind, in which I considered the scenarios where we can't find a single person among all the 70000 possible people in the forest. And there is one simulation which is proving to be right no matter in which angle I check it!"

"A possible simulation?" ,Sitaram asked, "What is it "

"I can't tell you right now." ,Arjun said, "There is still one more thing we should do before I could confirm my theory. After this final check, if I found that everything was going according to what I thought, then I will tell you everything."

"What should we do then?" ,Gnan asked.

"There is nothing for any of us to do." ,Arjun said, "I want you guys to take out the Stardust Spying Insects!"
