The prey, skewered on sticks, quickly turned golden brown as the flames licked it, dripping with grease and exuding a mouth-watering aroma.
In this wilderness under the starry sky, a group of people sat on the ground, enjoying the cool breeze of summer and fresh game. If it were another time and place, it would truly have a certain wild charm.
Unfortunately, no one was in the mood for it.

Chen Li put down the beast leg he had been gnawing on, looked up and said, "Don’t worry, it’s fine!"
The newcomers weren’t just one person, but a group of more than ten, all with covered faces, joking and laughing as they approached. Despite their good cover, the occasional nervousness they showed gave them away.
Chen Li couldn’t be bothered with idle talk and suddenly raised his hand, causing his palm to light up.
"Snap!"
A loud noise.
