Qin Shilei and his group flew back and forth from south to north three times, taking less than five hours to search the entire Pretty Country.
A total of four hundred and three Golden Realm experts were captured.
The hiding methods of these Golden Realm experts were truly bizarre.
Some transformed into a dejected survivor, wandering the streets.
This person possessed the special ability to conceal their aura. Even the powerful An Qian had to rely on the Shan He Tu's prompt and careful identification to recognize him as a Golden Realm evolutionist.
If it weren't for the Shan He Tu, it would have been impossible for the Dark Night members alone, or even a large army, to find him.
More people hid in rivers, seas, and deep mountains and forests.
When captured by Qin Shilei, these individuals all wore expressions of disbelief.
They couldn't fathom how Qin Shilei had managed to capture them.
Hovering above the border of Pretty Country.
An Qian spoke with some uncertainty, "Shilei, should we search Pretty Country again? If someone was constantly on the move, they might have just managed to evade our search."
Qin Shilei shook his head, "No rush for a second search. Let's search around the vicinity of Pretty Country first."
With that, he instructed the Golden Winged Thunder Roc to search two to three hundred kilometers away from the Pretty Country's border.
In less than ten minutes, a green marker appeared on the Shan He Tu.
"There's a Golden Realm evolutionist five hundred kilometers away," Kong Qingshu immediately alerted them, staring at the Shan He Tu.
The Golden Winged Thunder Roc also flew towards the target's direction under her guidance.
Soon, they arrived above the green marker.
Below was a lush, verdant forest.
Qin Shilei moved and dived down into the dense woods.
Passing through the undergrowth, he found himself face-to-face with a brown bear three to four meters tall.
"Strange, it's clearly an evolutionist, why has it turned into a bear?"
Qin Shilei looked around. "Never mind, I'll just kill this bear first and then search."
He drew the Ju Que Sword, preparing to finish off the bear with a single strike.
"Wait, I surrender."
The brown bear suddenly spoke in a human voice.
In the blink of an eye, it transformed into a man nearly two meters tall.
"Are you from Pretty Country?" Qin Shilei asked indifferently.
"I..."
The man was about to deny it, but seeing a fleeting murderous intent in Qin Shilei's eyes, he quickly admitted, "This humble one is indeed from Pretty Country."
"Then go in and stay with your companions."
With that, Qin Shilei threw him into his spatial artifact.
Upon entering the blessed land, the man immediately opened the chat channel and posted.
"To all Pretty Country compatriots who have not yet been captured, please note that King Qin An has crossed the border of Pretty Country for a search."
"I suggest you temporarily leave Pretty Country for one to two thousand kilometers, then calculate the time and return to Pretty Country at the last moment."
"As long as three to four Golden Realm experts enter Pretty Country simultaneously from different directions, even if King Qin An has heavenly abilities, he will lose."
He finished typing and was about to send it when he found the chat channel unresponsive.
A middle-aged man next to him patted the man's shoulder, "Are you trying to send a message to outsiders? Don't waste your effort. We are likely in a spatial secret realm now, and the chat channel cannot be used."
The man's face darkened. "Does that mean we've lost for sure?"
The middle-aged man sighed, "It would be good if we lost. I'm just afraid someone might try to be clever and defeat King Qin An, and then our fate will be uncertain."
A sexy young woman nearby chimed in, "That's true. If King Qin An loses, he can just kill all of us and leave behind a dozen or twenty Golden Realm subordinates. Then Pretty Country will be his to command."
"Now, all of us hope King Qin An wins, otherwise, we might never see tomorrow's sun again."
Another person said with a worried expression.
All of the over four hundred evolutionists captured by Qin Shilei wore troubled expressions. At this moment, they all hoped that Qin Shilei could capture all the Golden Realm experts within Pretty Country and win the bet.
Upon hearing this, the man suddenly said with a sliver of hope, "Fortunately, I can't send messages here. Otherwise, if those people saw my message, they might have won the bet, and wouldn't that have doomed everyone, including myself."
Qin Shilei, standing on the back of the Golden Winged Thunder Roc, had indeed considered this possibility.
If two Pretty Country Golden Realm experts were to enter Pretty Country simultaneously from afar at the last moment, he would indeed lose.
But what if he lost?
Once he possessed the Shan He Tu and could capture the vast majority of Pretty Country's Golden Realm experts, it already meant he was in an invincible position.
If someone were to play such a trick, Qin Shilei could make the people of Pretty Country experience the tragic life of losing their Golden Realm experts.
Qin Shilei and the other three made a circuit along the border of Pretty Country.
They discovered seventy to eighty more Golden Realm evolutionists.
Eight of them were from Pretty Country, all planning to return to Pretty Country in the last half hour.
He threw those eight clever individuals into the blessed land and had the Purple Armored Beetles guard them.
As for the other dozens of people, Qin Shilei had not paid them any mind for the time being.
Twenty-four hours were about to pass.
Discussions about the bet between Qin Shilei and Pretty Country were also in full swing on the chat channel.
"It's almost twenty-four hours, are there any Golden Realm experts from Pretty Country who haven't been caught? Speak up."
"Squeak, I haven't been caught. But I'm a hundred kilometers away from Pretty Country, so it doesn't count."
"Idiot upstairs, if you had returned earlier, wouldn't you have won for sure?"
"Heh heh..."
"Those who boasted that King Qin An couldn't find them, why has no one spoken up? Have they all been captured?"
"I don't believe it. How can King Qin An be so omnipotent that he actually found hundreds of Golden Realm experts from the vast and boundless Pretty Country?"
"It's terrifying to think about! If King Qin An can easily capture hundreds of Golden Realm experts in just twenty-four hours, what about us?"
"King Qin An has opened a live broadcast room, hurry and watch it, everyone."
Following the last person's post, many survivors flooded into the live broadcast room.
The scene in the live broadcast room showed a plaza with four to five hundred evolutionists standing, facing Qin Shilei and his three beautiful wives.
Survivors from Pretty Country also recognized the four to five hundred evolutionists as their country's peerless experts, who had indeed been captured by Qin Shilei.
Qin Shilei said loudly, "I'll give your Pretty Country three minutes. As long as any Golden Realm expert can start a live broadcast, stating that they are still in Pretty Country and have not been captured by me, then the bet will be considered lost by me."
Three minutes quickly passed, and not a single person started a live broadcast.
Qin Shilei spoke again, "Then this bet will be considered won by me. Are you convinced?"
He directed this question to the hundreds of Golden Realm experts present.
These Golden Realm experts immediately knelt on one knee and said in unison, "We are all convinced. Your subjects pay homage to King Qin An and will henceforth be loyal to the King Qin An's Mansion, obeying your every command!"
Their lives were in Qin Shilei's hands, leaving them no choice but to submit.
