Curious, he looked over and noticed that both brothers were staring in shock, pointing towards a certain direction.
He followed their gaze.
When he saw a particular plant in that area, Shin Woncheon's eyes widened in disbelief!
Oh my gosh!
Isn't that the Umbrythorn Shadow Vinea, ranked seventeenth on the list of mutated plants?!
The leaves of this mutated plant can transform into poisonous arrows, with a single leaf capable of splitting into twenty to thirty needle-like projectiles that strike with incredible speed, making them nearly impossible to dodge!
Who knows how many people have overlooked these inconspicuous vines and met their end under the "shadow arrows"!
The Umbrythorn Shadow Vinea is over three meters long, with more than twenty leaves, meaning its firing range can easily cover over ten meters!
Now that they were looking at this particular plant, considering the thickness of the vine, it could be nearly ten meters long!
Its attack range might even exceed a hundred meters—once someone enters its zone, death is inevitable!
Shin Woncheon watched helplessly as the figure ahead kept moving forward without stopping, not even glancing at the Umbrythorn Shadow Vinea.
"W-wait…" Just as Shin Woncheon was about to shout a warning, the person in front had already confidently stepped into the attack range of the Umbrythorn Shadow Vinea.
The vine didn't move, as if it hadn't even noticed that a human had invaded its territory.
The person continued to move forward.
Ninety meters.
Eighty meters.
Fifty meters.
Thirty meters.
Ten meters.
One meter.
Oh, they've come into contact.
…Come into contact?!
Shin Woncheon began to doubt whether he was already dead or had fallen under some illusion cast by a mutated plant.
Surely, he hadn't actually encountered this person, right?
Everything he was seeing was fake, wasn't it?
How could anyone come into contact with an Umbrythorn Shadow Vinea and remain unharmed?!
That was a hand—delicate, white as snow—that could easily draw blood with just a light press!
Even a knife might struggle to cut through these mutated plants, so how could it be possible for someone to touch it and suffer no consequences?
The vine had just softly been brushed aside, shaking slightly, as if it were an ordinary plant blocking the path.
Fake, fake, it must be fake…
"Hmm?"
Oh, the big shot turned around to look at them; they must have been moving too slowly, and he was becoming impatient.
Shin Woncheon swallowed hard, glanced at his brothers, and was the first to lift his leg and step into the hundred-meter range of the Umbrythorn Shadow Vinea.
…Nothing happened.
Cold sweat drenched Shin Woncheon's back.
With his attempt, the other two also half-lifted their injured companion and moved forward.
Still, nothing happened.
Shin Woncheon offered an apologetic smile to the big shot ahead; the big shot ignored him, immediately turning around to lead the way as soon as they started moving.
Shin Woncheon didn't feel slighted at all by the lack of acknowledgment.
It was normal for someone of that caliber to overlook him; if the big shot were overly nice, Shin Woncheon would have worried that he might have some ulterior motive.
