Strictly speaking, the two superpowers when absorbing energy are completely an instinctive reaction and not Zhou Sen's conscious control.

Now, Zhou Sen just wants to enter the dark forest to experience as soon as possible and vent the anger in his chest...

When leaving Wuchao City, Lu Maomao wanted to follow Zhou Sen to the Dark Forest for training, but Zhou Sen declined.

Zhou Sen didn't want to carry around a burdensome person who would faint at the sight of blood.

Arriving in Wuchao Town, Zhou Sen started hanging out at the bar of the Stone Inn.

This bar is run by a blond man from outside the country in partnership with the inn. It is located in the lobby of the Stone Inn and has an area of ​​about 500 square meters. It mainly sells drinks and snacks, as well as some hunters, adventurers, and characters from the world.

Before entering the forest, most people would gather here.

This is the distribution center for news from Wuchao Town.

At the same time, there are people building teams here all the time.

What surprised Zhou Sen was that he saw the young man with whom he exchanged energy stones in the bar.

The young man was sitting alone in a corner of the bar, pouring himself a drink, looking a little depressed. Although the young man looked lonely, his eyes were extremely sharp. As soon as Zhou Sen walked into the bar, he was noticed immediately.

At the same time, Zhou Sen also discovered the young man.

Zhou Sen has an instinctive vigilance towards unfamiliar environments. He will immediately observe the material arrangement and distance between each appliance in the unfamiliar environment. This is the experience he has learned during his more than two years of escape.

.

At any time, familiarity with the environment means increased chances of survival.

The young man smiled at Zhou Sen and raised his glass. Zhou Sen glanced at the noisy environment around him, hesitated, and walked straight towards the young man.

"Zhou Sen." Zhou Sen didn't want to hide his name. He also believed that a real master would never pay attention to a little person like him, while young people, who have reached intermediate superpowers, are definitely considered masters among masters.

In fact, few real masters take the bounties on the gangster list seriously. Unless they meet by chance, it is difficult for anyone to deliberately pursue and kill the characters on the gangster list. After all, all the characters who can be on the gangster list are not bad.

A ruthless person, no one will take the risk to offend an extremely dangerous person without absolute certainty.

Most of the people who are interested in the gangster list are young talents who are just starting out. They hope to become famous by killing the characters on the gangster list.

"Hao Yunyao." When the young man heard Zhou Sen's name, there was nothing wrong with his expression.

Hao Yunyao nodded to the bartender and signaled to serve Zhou Sen a drink. After the bartender consulted Zhou Sen's opinion, he brought a glass of boiled water to Zhou Sen.

"Plain water?" Hao Yunyao was stunned.

"Yes, plain water."

Zhou Sen nodded calmly. Zhou Sen also liked drinking, but he would never drink with a strange and dangerous person.

A glass of boiled water was brought up. Zhou Sen picked up the boiled water and Hao Yunyao signaled. Hao Yunyao smiled and took a sip.

"You want to enter the dark forest?" Zhou Sen asked.

"Yes." Hao Yunyao nodded.

"Have you formed a group?"

"There is no group suitable for me. What about you?"

"Just arrived."

"Well, don't worry, wait a minute." Hao Yunyao stared at the door of the bar.

The two of them chatted together, whether it was Zhou Sen or Hao Yunyao, they both seemed to have an instinct to be wary and did not talk in depth. Several times, Hao Yunyao wanted to ask Zhou Sen about the best energy of spiritual beasts.

However, every time he asked about it, he would change the subject. Obviously, he also thought it was a bit abrupt.

Zhou Sen didn't take it seriously and looked at the people in the bar.

The lights in the bar were not dim, but it was a bit noisy. However, it did not affect people's conversations. Instead, it provided a natural confidentiality barrier for people's conversations. People gathered in groups of three or five around the table, whispering and whispering to each other.

From time to time, someone would get up and leave at the same time.

While Zhou Sen and Hao Yunyao were drinking, a big man with curly hair, wearing leather armor and a long scar on his face strode into the bar. Behind him, there were five people who were also wearing the same clothes.

The big man in leather armor. The curly-haired man's ferocious eyes swept across the bar. Finally, they landed on Hao Yunyao. Then, he strode towards Hao Yunyao. Five big men in leather armor followed behind him.

Above, in this bustling bar, it was like a huge bull squeezing in, and the people in the bar were trying to avoid it.

"Hao Banxing, I heard that you are coming out alone this time... Bah, are you a man? What are you drinking in the bar?"

The curly-haired man walked to the table where they were sitting, picked up Zhou Sen's water glass and drank it all in one gulp. Then, he sprayed the water on the ground and cursed at Zhou Sen.

Zhou Sen smiled and didn't bother to pay attention.

"Not bad, beast, you are actually still alive." Hao Yunyao chuckled at the leather-armored man.

"Grandma, as long as I am not with you, I will live well." The big man in leather armor touched the scar on his face and said with a ferocious smile.

"Really! You have been in the Dark Forest for a year. This year, you have been in and out a few times. Which time did you make the most money?" Hao Yunyao patted the curly-haired man on the shoulder and asked.

"This...is still the most you have ever..."

"Then, let me ask you, as long as you and I, Hao Yunyao, come out alive, who will ever regret it! You?"

"Ahem... That's not true... It's just that you are too damn evil. I, Qin Hai, was blessed with great luck last time, but I don't always have such good luck. I still have this small life.

Okay." The curly-haired man coughed a few times and said.

"Haha, different ways don't work together. Since you want to save your life, then don't hang around in front of me!" Hao Yunyao looked cold and snorted.

"Damn, the kid's cultivation level has increased again... You're cruel, I don't bother to argue with you." The curly-haired man was stared at by Hao Yunyao, and he was so frightened that he backed away. He said a few words and then brought up

He followed the big men in leather armor and left.

"Are you curious?" Hao Yunyao saw Zhou Sen looking at him, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"certainly."

"If you have energy stones to trade with me, I wouldn't mind telling you." Hao Yunyao said with a smile.

"Not yet. If there is, I will definitely exchange it with you."

"Well, it's a deal!"

"I know." Zhou Sen motioned to the bartender to pour him a glass of water.

"I have been here in the Dark Forest for more than a year. I also have a nickname called 'Haos Disaster Star' because only one or two out of ten people in the group with me can make it out of the Dark Forest alive."

"The probability is really low." Zhou Sen smiled bitterly.

"Yes, it's very low. Most of the time, I come out alive just like the last time you saw me. However, those who can follow me out are now rich."

"Then are you considered a disaster or a blessing?"

"Half and half. Strictly speaking, with me, the opportunities and risks are equal, so I will never lack teammates."

"This is really confusing." Zhou Sen smiled.

"Are you interested?" Hao Yunyao looked Zhou Sen up and down.

"A little bit, not much."

"Well, Mingzhi! I don't have the habit of bringing corpses with me." Hao Yunyao laughed.

"However, if the risk is equal to the opportunity, you can give it a try."

"You really want to form a group with me?" Hao Yunyao was stunned.

"I was just worried that you would kill me for the energy stone, or that you would be killed by a monster, but I never thought about it."

"Uh...hahaha...haha..." Hao Yunyao laughed so hard that he burst into tears. Suddenly, he grabbed a big man who was passing by and asked: "Tell me, I am Hao Yunyao."

Will Yao secretly swallow his teammates' energy stones?"

"...Although Hao's Calamity Star is a disaster star and should be kept away from strangers, it still has a good reputation." The big man was stunned for a moment, apparently unable to react, but he soon came to his senses.

"Go away..." Hao Yunyao grabbed a big man at the table next to him and asked, "What kind of person am I?"

"Disaster star..."

"As promised." Hao Yunyao raised his eyebrows, filled with murderous intent.

"That... that... I keep my word, and my reputation is pretty good..."

"Hahaha, yes, that's it, that's it! Boy, next time you have a chance, Master Hao will give you a chance to make a fortune, remember it."

"Yes, yes, Master Hao, I will remember it." The man actually thanked him repeatedly, looking grateful.

"Did you see that?" Hao Yunyao threw the man back and said to Zhou Sen.

"I saw it."

"I, Hao Yunyao, make money openly and honestly. For example, if I want to kill you Zhou Sen, I will definitely tell you that I want to earn the bounty of two million imperial coins!"

"Do you know me?" Zhou Sen's face suddenly changed color, and his muscles all tensed up.

"Of course, I know Gu Jie and we had several meals together. He was killed. Naturally, I want to know who killed him. Isn't it weird to meet you?" Hao Yunyao snorted coldly.

"You want to avenge him?" Zhou Sen's muscles tensed.

"Revenge? Haha, it's too late for me to be grateful to you, why should I take revenge?" Hao Yunyao laughed again, "That guy Gu Jie has a sanctimonious face, full of men stealing women and prostitutes, relying on his father, doing evil, and dying unjustly, if he hadn't and

He had some acquaintance with each other and had long been killed by the sword."
