The situation called for seizing the opportunity through speed.
If they could find the Emperor's Eye earlier,
and seize its vessel, then none of this would matter.
The reason they had infiltrated these tourist groups this time was to find clues about the Emperor's Eye, and at the same time, to avoid the Death Knight Order.
Although no one had seen them yet,
the existence of this organization was indeed plausible.
If they were to find out that someone was heading for the Emperor's Eye, they would surely be the first to stop them.
With Chen Fan and the others' current capabilities, they might not truly possess the means.
But looking at Chen Fan before him, Bai Zhannian by his side said, "Don't worry, we will definitely find it this time. As for District 13, they might be a bit troublesome, but as long as we're careful, it shouldn't be a problem!"
With that thought, their spirits also lifted.
Of course, they had to admit that this matter was not going to be easily resolved,
but their hearts remained vigilant.
This time, they were following a tourist group.
The group consisted of people from various places, all of whom appeared to be skilled adventurers.
It was only natural.
Crossing the Libyan desert, although not on the same level of difficulty as finding the Emperor's Eye,
did indeed showcase a certain degree of strength. Those without confidence in their wilderness survival skills would certainly not have undertaken such a feat.
Now that these individuals could make such a decision so casually, it indicated that they were also well aware of their capabilities.
Amongst this group, Chen Fan and his companions appeared the most ordinary, yet also the most low-key. After all, their objective was audacious, and they were worried about attracting attention at this moment, thus they dared not be too ostentatious.
They feared being targeted by the Death Knight Order.
However, while Chen Fan wished to remain low-key, some people were not like that.
Accompanying them was a highly accomplished Chinese adventurer.
He was reportedly a popular figure on video-sharing websites, specializing in filming extremely challenging projects. Undertaking tasks like crossing the Libyan desert was, to him, as easy as talking.
It was too simple.
What others considered to require immense courage was, for this man, nothing more than a game.
This was evident from his considerable abilities.
Chen Fan walked at the very back of the group, and this man easily spotted Chen Fan amidst the crowd.
"Little brother, are you also here for adventure?"
"Do I look like I'm here for anything else?" Chen Fan looked at the professional 'adventurer' before him with a helpless expression. "However, I'm here to appreciate the desert scenery, that's all!"
"Haha, I don't think so!" The man smiled at Chen Fan and extended his hand. "Allow me to introduce myself, Xu Daming."
"Xu Daming, are you the famous Adventure King?" Chen Fan was unaware of this man's identity, but it was Sha Lu beside him who recognized him.
Clearly, being recognized by someone nearby made Xu Daming quite proud.
It seemed his efforts over the years had not been in vain.
At least someone knew of his existence at this moment.
He smiled at Sha Lu and asked, "You know me?"
"I really enjoy your adventure videos, especially the one where you traversed the Savage Mountains of China alone in a week!"
"Haha, that episode! I like it very much too. Let me tell you, the conditions in the Savage Mountains are incredibly complex..."
The two hit it off immediately, becoming good friends in an instant.
However, Chen Fan was not in the mood for such pleasantries.
Although Xu Daming claimed to be making friends with them, he was merely trying to show off his prowess.
When he chatted with Sha Lu, his voice was loud, as if he wanted someone to hear him.
Chen Fan glanced over and noticed a strikingly beautiful girl in their group.
She was tall, with a flawless face, truly stunning.
What surprised him most.
Was that this woman was a mixed-race.
Xu Daming was clearly interested in the girl, but he was hesitant to introduce himself directly. Therefore, he approached Chen Fan to strike up a conversation.
He assumed that a few Chinese men would recognize his status.
Who would have thought that Chen Fan knew nothing of this so-called Adventure King?
If Sha Lu hadn't stepped in at the crucial moment, his plan would have been completely ruined.
Just as Xu Daming was enthusiastically introducing himself, the only woman in the group slowly walked up to Chen Fan, a slight smile on her lips, and said, "Hello, allow me to introduce myself, Yao Hui."
Chen Fan, who was lost in thought, never expected a girl to approach him.
Even less did he expect that she would be approaching him.
He looked at Yao Hui before him and chuckled awkwardly, running a hand through his hair. "Ah, I'm so sorry, I didn't hear you just now. I'm Chen Fan!"
Xu Daming appeared composed and unfazed,
but his gaze kept flicking towards Chen Fan.
Yao Hui smiled, showing no signs of annoyance. Instead, she chuckled and said, "The journey might be a bit dull, would you mind chatting?"
"Uh... of course not. However, it might not be for too long. I didn't get much rest last night, and I was hoping to get some sleep early today!" Chen Fan stated earnestly, which made Xu Daming envious.
He had never met anyone like this.
If he could have even a brief conversation with this beautiful woman, he would have been ecstatic.
But who would have thought that Chen Fan was completely indifferent?
Yao Hui also hadn't expected to be rejected in such a manner. This man seemed genuinely unconcerned.
She smiled and said, "I just thought you looked very much like an old friend of mine, so I wanted to chat a bit. If it's inconvenient, never mind!"
"Miss Yao, it's convenient, it's very convenient!" Xu Daming quickly interjected, putting an arm around Chen Fan's shoulder. "This is my good friend, and also my fan."
