Chapter 494: The Map

Whoosh… Whoosh…

The owner of the cabin was hurriedly running through the forest.

As he ran, he looked nervously at a semi-transparent map that appeared in front of him like a pop-up window.

On the map, two bright points of light seemed to sense something and were moving closer to his location.

“How terrible… I clearly came to this remote place to hide, so how could I still be found, and by the worst person possible?”

The owner of the wooden house gritted his teeth.

His name was Liu Yucheng. He was one of the many people who had been reborn in this magical land. After his rebirth, he became part of the human race and, like Demon King Chen Ke and Hero He Qiwen, he was now a child who was just over six years old.

He had a special gift called “Unique Skill – Map.” When he used this skill, a map appeared in front of him, showing the names, races, and levels of all living beings nearby.

Besides this feature, the map had another even more powerful ability.

That was, he could find the exact locations of other reincarnators who had also been reborn in this land on the map.

In addition, by zooming in on the map, although it could not show other creatures like monsters or humans beyond a certain range, the positions of the reincarnators would always be displayed on the map.

Regular monsters, humans, and even subhuman races in the area were represented as white dots on the map. The higher their levels, the brighter the dots became.

The reincarnators were represented as blood-red dots on the map. Although these red dots did not show the race, name, and level of their owners like the white dots did, they also varied in brightness, some being dim and others very bright.

Liu Yucheng guessed that those blood-red spots were like the white spots; the stronger the reincarnators, the brighter they would shine.

The reason he received such a blessing, instead of gifts that just made him stronger… was that Liu Yucheng did not like to take risks.

He was someone who went with the flow; in his previous life, he was an ordinary person who never faced great storms or challenges. Even though his life had no ups and downs, it could almost be said to be unchanging, but he found joy in it until… a sudden illness took his life.

After that, he was informed by a so-called deity that he would be reborn in an extraordinary land, caught in an absurd game called “Hundred People Fighting to Become Gods…”

To survive in this battle game and continue enjoying a peaceful and calm life, he wished for the ability to avoid danger and seek good fortune, and then he received the blessing called “Unique Skill – Map.”

Although this Unique Skill could be used for many things, Liu Yucheng only used it to stay away from the blood-red spots on the map; he even left home when he noticed a blood-red spot approaching his town of the human race.

This land was very dangerous and scary.

Liu Yucheng, who held the map, understood this very well.

Because over the past few years, he had seen the disappearance of those originally blood-red spots on the map, including himself, which had numbered a hundred.

During the first year after he was born, the number of disappearing blood-red light dots was the highest. Most of these light dots appeared in the forests and mountains where monsters roamed, while a small portion appeared in the territories of humans and subhumans.

After that, he would occasionally see two blood-red light dots getting closer to each other, and then quickly, one of the light dots would vanish.

There were also cases where blood-red light dots came close but neither disappeared; instead, they stayed together.

Upon seeing this, Liu Yucheng immediately understood the situation regarding the alliance.

He suddenly thought that with his non-combat Unique Skill, there was a good chance of forming a partnership with other reincarnators.

However, he only thought about it; after all, if he formed an alliance, even though his allies might not harm him, he couldn’t be sure about his enemies, and once he joined forces, he would be caught up in the wars of these reincarnators.

In fact, when his allies finally defeated the blood-red light dots on the map one by one, wouldn’t it then be his turn?

Therefore, unless absolutely necessary, he would continue to avoid those blood-red light dots.

…

After running away from home.

Because of his Unique Skill, Liu Yucheng could avoid the powerful monsters in the forest.

He could also use this skill to find weaker monsters that he could easily defeat, allowing him to safely level up.

Although he did not want to take risks, it was important to have strength to survive in the forest.

However, he decided to ignore the weaker monsters, and even though he was at a higher level, he would not dare to challenge the strong and fierce ones.

He thought he would be able to live peacefully, but unexpectedly, not long after, some “people” started searching the forest in great numbers.

Just as they were close to finding his little cabin, Liu Yucheng resigned himself to his fate and escaped in the opposite direction without even having a few bites of hot food.

Even though he was very familiar with the forest, Liu Yucheng was still just a short-legged child, and it was impossible for him to escape the Ant Clan’s encirclement.

“Found him! It’s him!”

“The little sister was right; the owner of the wooden house is indeed a reincarnator!”

Suddenly, three very beautiful young girls appeared in front of him.

Liu Yucheng, who was running for his life and out of breath, said nothing and turned to run away again after hearing the girls’ voices.

However, as soon as he turned his head, his running feet froze in mid-air.

Just a moment ago, there were only three ants in front of him, but now that he turned around, there were not just three ants blocking his way; there was a thick swarm of what looked like hundreds of ant monsters.

…

Liu Yucheng was caught.

The process was very easy because this reincarnator never intended to resist; he almost raised his hands high above his head to show he was surrendering just as the ant girls were about to speak.

The reason for his quick surrender was that Liu Yucheng, who possessed the Unique Skill of having a map, knew very well what kind of monsters surrounded him.

When Liu Yucheng surrendered, the Ant Clan was overjoyed to learn about the Unique Skill of this reincarnator.

From the other person’s map, the brightest red dot on this continent represented Lin Yu, while the other dots seemed very dim in comparison.

Upon hearing this news, even Lin Yu was so happy that she made a special exception to celebrate with several of her daughters that evening.

With Liu Yucheng’s help, searching for reincarnators wouldn’t feel like looking for a needle in a haystack anymore.

As for the reincarnators that the Ant Clan had not yet found… there were only two left.
