# Chapter 7: Amu Unleashes His Power
The first white supply crate was secured, but Su Xiao didn't immediately try to seize the three green supply crates. His earlier clash with the tank man had cost him at least half a minute. By the time the crates landed, many contractors had already set their sights on them, and now not a single one remained.
While Su Xiao had secured his supply crate, things weren't going smoothly for Gourmet. Over there, the white supply crate was ultimately taken by Holy Light Paradise's Mu Xiao.
Although that white supply crate had been taken, Gourmet and Death Paradise's Gaske were still locked in combat.
Gaske's exact appearance was hard to make out. This guy could suddenly grow an extra arm or rapidly transform his body, sometimes taking on a monster form, other times a half-human shape.
As for Gourmet, this guy could release very thin black-red tentacles. As long as these tentacles touched someone, they would drain a massive amount of life force.
These two inhuman beings had both lost their tempers. They had already fought deep into the forest, and bursts of rumbling sounds came from within.
These two must have had some old grudge, which was why Mu Xiao had naturally taken the white supply crate. Her combat power wasn't actually weaker than Gourmet or Gaske. In a life-or-death battle, it would come down to on-the-spot performance and ability countering.
Take Su Xiao and the tank man for example. The tank man was a veteran who had already advanced to Seventh Rank long ago. In terms of semi-data-based comprehensive attributes, the two had very close combat power. But when they actually fought, it was a completely different story. That was the issue of ability countering.
Whether it was Gourmet, Mu Xiao, or the others, they all chose to seize the white supply crate first. The reason was that they were all wary of the power of Eighth Rank one-time-use items. It was safest to get such items in hand.
Aside from Su Xiao, there was no one else in this lakeside area now. The contractors who had seized green supply crates had all fled into the dense forest, with others in pursuit.
Su Xiao walked into the dense forest. As soon as he entered, he saw a contractor half-embedded in a large tree. This wasn't from being slammed into it; it looked more like the tree had suddenly come alive and then bitten down on this contractor. Another hunter had made a move.
Su Xiao believed that before long, the water source area would become a hunting ground. Hunters needed to kill five survivors to complete the trial, while survivors only needed to kill one hunter to complete the task with a high evaluation.
Hunters could hide their identities and blend into survivor teams. This seemed like a huge advantage, but it really wasn't.
Hunters only had one way to complete their task, while survivors had three choices: survive for 15 days, complete 3 side missions, or kill 1 hunter. Completing any one of these would allow survivors to finish their task.
If most survivors chose to lie low and look for side missions to complete, the hunters would have a headache. The only good news was that although the Wild Thicket Forest was large, it only occupied two-fifths of the Primordial Continent's area.
As for going outside the Wild Thicket Forest, that would likely be going to die. The south and north sides were cold regions, while the east and west sides were mountain ranges.
No matter how survivors wanted to complete their survival task, leaving the Wild Thicket Forest was the least wise choice. Besides, this place was already big enough. Even if they wandered around here, as long as they were lucky, they might not encounter a hunter in 15 natural days.
More importantly, the contractors participating in the survival trial were basically here to seize the Life Dragon Essence and to obtain more resources through high evaluations. The survival trial was optional. Since they dared to come, they must have been willing to risk their lives.
Walking through the dense forest, Su Xiao advanced about two kilometers before sitting on a pile of weed-covered rubble to wait.

...
Wielding the Dragonheart Axe and equipped with the [King's Soul], Amu's combat power had skyrocketed. Combined with Baha's coordination, it didn't take long before he killed a contractor who had seized a green supply crate.
For this supply crate seizure, Su Xiao's team had split into three groups. Su Xiao acted alone, Amu and Baha formed one group, with Amu lying in ambush in the dense forest, waiting for a contractor to seize a supply crate. Baha would make a move as soon as the crate landed. If he couldn't take it, that was fine; he would quickly regroup with Amu and choose a target who had seized a crate to pursue.
Bubu Wang was also acting alone. He wasn't participating in the supply crate struggle; instead, he was responsible for doing something else.
Su Xiao waited for over ten minutes before Amu emerged from a nearby cluster of leaves, with Baha perched on its shoulder.
At this moment, Amu was holding the Dragonheart Axe. This long-handled battle axe was a full 1.8 meters in length, but it wasn't too long for Amu. At the center of the bucket-sized single-edged axe head, a blue heart was beating at a very slow frequency. This heart belonged to an ancient dragon, an ice-attributed ancient dragon.
Now, the handle of the Dragonheart Axe was covered with interwoven spiral ice patterns, with cold air rising from them.
The Dragonheart Axe was very heavy and sharp. Back then, Amu had used this thing to chop off the First King's right arm.
The Dragonheart Axe wasn't without its flaws. This thing consumed a massive amount of ice energy. Once the ice energy was insufficient, it would erode the user. But for now, it hadn't eroded Amu yet, as Amu's ice energy recovery speed was extremely fast.
Su Xiao took the supply crates Amu handed over. This time, they had obtained two supply crates in total. Their luck wasn't bad.
Opening supply crates didn't involve luck. The items inside were only a few types. Su Xiao first opened the dark green resource crate.

With a loud clang, a curved blade over four meters long crashed to the ground. Due to its extreme weight, it had half-sunk into the soil.
Looking at this weapon named [Ancient·Giant Soldier God], Su Xiao felt that this weapon would sell well, or he could simply keep it.
A weapon over four meters long—over 99% of people wouldn't use it for combat. It was too heavy and too big. However, the metal used to forge [Ancient·Giant Soldier God] was very precious, which meant it would definitely be a hot commodity. Selling it for over 400 Soul Coins shouldn't be a problem.
