Looking at the message on his communicator that someone had already acquired the map, Ender transmitted to the other four, "I'll go get the map first, then come back and meet up with you all!"
Stepping on his Blood Edge Blade, he quickly flew towards the map's coordinates, like a blood-colored meteor trailing a tail.
Controlling his Second-Order Spiritual Weapon, Ender's flight speed was extremely fast. After crossing a high mountain range, he arrived at the map's coordinates.
As soon as he reached the map's coordinates, he saw an flash of light flying in the distance. Without much thought, he chased after it.
"Haha! I didn't expect the map drop point to be so close to us."
"Haha! Yeah! I really didn't expect it!"
The two flew, laughing and transmitting messages to each other. They had originally only wanted to try their luck to see if they could collect the mission objective, but they never expected to pick up a map. It was such a pleasant surprise.
One of them, in his excitement, looked around and saw a blood-colored flash of light chasing from behind. His laughter abruptly stopped!
The person quickly said to his companion, "Someone is chasing us from behind!"
While warning, he watched the blood-colored flash of light chasing from behind and couldn't help but be shocked, "How can his speed be so fast!"
The flash of light behind them was too fast. Even when they were flying at full speed, it could still quickly close the distance. It was unbelievably fast!
The other person looked back and was also shocked, "How can this guy's speed be so fast!"
When they left the map coordinates earlier, they hadn't seen anyone. How could someone have caught up?
As he got closer to the two in front, Ender transmitted to them, "Hand over the map!"
"Map? There's no map!"
"We're also looking for the map!"
The two, holding onto a sliver of hope, refused to admit to having the map!
Ender was slightly angry, "Do you really think I'm easy to fool!"
From the moment the Stellar Training Camp sent the message that someone had acquired the map, to his arrival at the map coordinates, using the 'Burning Energy Escape Technique', he only took a few seconds.
Given the flight speed of a Stellar Rank, it would be difficult for anyone to leave his sight in a few seconds, and besides the two, there was no one else around.
Moreover, if they hadn't been guilty about acquiring the map, why would these two be flying at full speed instead of looking for the person who acquired the map?
Seeing that the two were unwilling to hand over the map, Ender directly deployed his Domain. Green light rapidly extended from him as the center, instantly engulfing the two in his Domain.
Enveloped by the Domain, the two immediately felt a powerful restrictive suppression, and their flight speed greatly decreased!
"Domain! He's a Domain-level student!"
"Why is his Domain so strong!"
Unlike in the Virtual Universe, in the real world, Ender's Domain, deployed with 32 times the life gene level of Gene Energy and Spiritual Force, had a terrifyingly strong restrictive and suppressive force. A typical Stellar Rank's speed would be greatly reduced when enveloped by his Domain!
"Hand over the map!"
After enveloping the two with his Domain, Ender had already arrived not far from them.
"It looks like the Second-Order Spiritual Weapon, Blood Edge Blade, is under his feet! No wonder his flight speed is so fast!"
"What? A Second-Order Spiritual Weapon! Then we're even less of a match!"
The opponent was already a strong expert with deep Domain attainments, and now he also had a Second-Order Spiritual Weapon in hand. They had no chance of winning!
"How about we hand over the map?"
"Hand it over! With such a strong expert here, we can't keep the map."
After a brief exchange of messages, the two reached an agreement and decided to hand the map over to Ender.
At this moment, Ender, who was getting a bit impatient, had already manipulated his Heavy Defense Disk to form a circular blade, preparing to make a move.
"Don't do it!" Seeing Ender's action, the two quickly transmitted, "We'll give you the map, please don't do anything!"
The leader opened his communicator, and after the light screen popped up, he operated it for a bit, then swiped towards Ender's direction.
Buzz!
The communicator on his wrist vibrated. Ender opened his communicator and saw a message from the Stellar Training Camp, notifying him that he had acquired the map. "Very good!"
Ender retracted his Domain and released the two. Because the distance was far enough and he had his Domain for protection, these two could not threaten him.
The leader cautiously asked, "Then can we leave?"
"Go on."
Ender nodded, but when the two turned around, he spoke again, "Wait."
The two jolted, somewhat afraid that Ender would kill them. "Big brother, what's wrong!"
Ender half-turned and pointed to the mountain range behind him, saying, "Find a place to hide. When the map unlocks, come find me at the highest Pinnacle over there. I will share a copy of the map with one of you!"
Seeing that the two were a bit scared, he explained, "I only have one teammate, and the map can be shared twice, so the extra copy will be my compensation to you."
"Thank you!" The leader first expressed his gratitude, then said, "When the map unlocks, I'll come find you. You can just share the map with me then."
To show his gratitude to Ender, the leader even used honorifics.
The other person nodded, "Yes, just share it with him."
Ender appeared calm, "Remember to come over as soon as the map unlocks. I won't wait for you too long."
After speaking, he stepped on his Blood Edge Blade and flew back to meet up with Rolando and the others.
Watching Ender's blood-colored flash of light flying, the other person asked with some apprehension, "Do you think we should go? Will he have ill intentions?"
The leader said, "With such deep Domain attainments, do you think a Genius of this level needs to deceive us?"
The other person still had concerns, "Such a Genius doesn't need to deceive us, but can he keep the map?"
"He's so confident in telling us to find him after the map unlocks, he must be very confident in his ability to defend the map from being taken by others. How about we follow him? If he gets ambushed, maybe we can even help."
"Are you crazy! He's a Domain-level Genius. Anyone who dares to attack him is most likely also Domain-level. You want to interfere in a Domain-level fight? You must want to die!"
"You're right! We can't interfere in a Domain-level Genius's battle, but following to watch is still fine."
"Following to watch is fine. But you absolutely must not think about interfering in a Domain-level battle!"
"Don't worry! I won't interfere!"
After their conversation, the two flew in the direction Ender had left. Since the Stellar Training Camp announced the map coordinates, they weren't worried about losing track.
... ...
After Ender obtained the map, he flew back in the direction he came from, and soon met up with Rolando and the others.
Rolando asked, "Did you get the map?"
Ender nodded, "I got it."
Ian said, "Since we have the map, let's find a place to wait for other students to arrive."
Ender had no objection to this. With the Stellar Training Camp regularly announcing the map coordinates, it would be difficult to escape other students by running away.
Of course, it's not impossible. If Ender wanted to, no student could catch up to him with his speed.
But Ender and the others were unwilling to protect the map by running away. Compared to running, they were more willing to use their powerful strength to subdue the students and forcefully keep the map!
Soon, the map coordinates were announced again, and in just a few seconds, students began to arrive following the announced coordinates...
