Chapter 115: Stay Where You Are and Don’t Run Around

Wei Huo had a rough idea where those things were. Instead of meeting the trio, he headed straight to the scene of the accident. He found three bloody backpacks and rummaged through them. Indeed, he found the three items inside.

In order to prevent players from being unable to identify who these items belonged to, the three items had three young men’s signatures on them. Writing their own names on their notebooks was one thing, but why did they have to write their own names on the shameful notes and the toy?

Were they afraid that others would not know?

After he found the three items, a new notification popped up.

“Note: Don’t let the second person know when you hand over the item. Otherwise, the recruitment will fail.”

It turned out that this was the difficulty. It was no wonder that people would get angry when they found out about things that belonged to the underworld.

Wei Huo turned around and saw three more people. They were surrounding a dead giant wolf in a daze. Xiao Bin said, “Who saved us? Look at that arrow. It’s made of bronze. Bows can’t normally shoot arrows of this weight. People with such arms are definitely not normal!”

Lu Ren asked, “What do you mean?”

Xiao Bin said firmly, “We must have transmigrated to another world. That person must be a hunter. He brought us back to the village and told us the truth. He then met the old man…”

Before he could finish his sentence, Wei Huo walked toward them. They were stunned, as Wei Huo did not look like a hunter. He was just an ordinary young man who was two to three years older than them.

The three of them asked cautiously, “Did you save us?”

Wei Huo nodded and pulled out the bronze arrow. The giant wolf’s corpse was smashed onto the ground, and blood kept flowing out of the hole in its head.

Xiao Bin probed, “May I know who you are?”

Wei Huo asked, “Who are you people?”

That was the first time Wei Huo was meeting real humans. They were not under the control of the players, nor were they quest NPCs. That was why the Thinking Lock could not affect them much. That gave them more room to think on their own.

That was why Wei Huo wanted to get more information by talking to them.

Xiao Bin said, “We…”

He did not know how to introduce himself. This was mainly because he did not know Wei Huo’s background or what lies he could come up with. Lying was not good, but at times, lies were a weapon to protect oneself. One should not expose oneself when one was unfamiliar with the world. One could not even say one’s real name. What if the other party had the Death Note?

Xiao Bin was deep in thought. He was at a loss for words. Without enough experience, he could not lie like a wily old man.

Wei Huo sensed that he could only speak first. He thought about it and said, “I came to this world earlier than you guys, so I’m slightly stronger than you.”

The three of them felt shocked and then excited. They asked, “So you’re also a citizen of China who transmigrated to this world? What a coincidence. It was just a few hours ago that our bus was driving along the road, but it suddenly transmigrated into this jungle. Before we could even understand what was going on, the bus turned over!”

The Thinking Lock in Xiao Bin’s mind did not flicker when he said those words. Wei Huo asked curiously, “What happened after that?”

Xiao Bin seemed to be the backbone of the trio. He had been talking to Wei Huo all along. He said, “Five people survived the bus accident. Two of them were seriously injured. At first, we tried to rescue them. It was only later that we realized something was wrong. In order to find out where we came from, we started exploring the surroundings. However, as we were exploring, we encountered this beast. Then, that beast started hunting us down!”

While speaking, Xiao Bin pointed at the wolf that was turning cold.

After introducing himself, Xiao Bin looked at Wei Huo and asked, “Big Brother, how did you come to this world?”

Wei Huo did not correct Xiao Bin’s mistaken perception. He said, “The reason I came here was a fire. The school library was suddenly set on fire. I was in the library at the time. Soon, all the library visitors passed through the jungle, but not everyone came out. Although we were attacked afterward, some people survived and built a camp… Then, I became a traveler. Two years passed until I met you guys.”

In theory, if Wei Huo had said that there had been fewer flaws and he had transmigrated by himself, it would have made others wonder how he had survived.

He could hunt alone, build a house, and manufacture weapons by himself, right? Wei Huo had always been alone.

Although Wei Huo’s explanation was not rigorous, Xiao Bin and the others still chose to believe him. After all, they had to rely on Wei Huo to survive in this unfamiliar place.

The reason Wei Huo had chosen to say that was to cover up the rhinoceros and Wei Sha, who were not far behind him. After all, if he had said that he’d transmigrated there today just like all of them, what would have happened to the rhinoceros and Wei Sha?

Of course, Wei Huo’s theory was flawed as well. If he encountered other living humans in the future, his weakness would be transparent.

However, it did not matter as long as the three of them became his attendants before that. The relationship between players and NPCs was stronger as long as a troublesome quest was completed.

After listening to Wei Huo’s description, Xiao Bin and the others saw the rhinoceros and Wei Sha behind him. They were surprised at first, but when they thought about Wei Huo’s powerful methods, they felt that it was not unusual for a strong person to tame one or two creatures and keep them as pets.

The three of them exchanged a look and Xiao Bin stepped forward to ask, “May we follow you for some time?”

That was exactly what Wei Huo wanted, mainly because he needed an experimenter. The research and development of the helmet would last a long time. He needed the experimenter to experiment with the new helmet’s effect. Secondly, he needed to strengthen his traveling team. In the end, Wei Huo thought that Xiao Bin had a lot of potential and was worth training.

Wei Huo nodded and said, “Come with me. You’re new here and you need to adapt. Why don’t you build a camp nearby with me?”

Newcomers could not travel long distances with Wei Huo, at least not before they found a suitable method of transportation. He had run over 100 kilometers today. Could newbies do that?

The three of them dared not say no. They could not survive there by themselves.

Wei Huo led them forward. After about two to three hours, they heard a few sounds.

Xiao Bin covered his stomach and smiled awkwardly. “I’m sorry.”

At that moment, Wei Huo noticed that the trio’s satiety and thirst levels were low. They had not had enough rest but they were in a good mood.

Wei Huo said, “Stay where you are and don’t run around. I’ll find some other prey.”
