Along the way, the players whispered and looked at Wen Zheliu and He Qin again and again with surprised eyes. He Qin led Wen Zheliu to the back of the team with a smile on his lips.
"How on earth did you..." Wen Zheliu was puzzled, feeling happy and terrified at the same time.
"Shh." He Qin pressed his slender and powerful index finger in front of his lips, "Find a safe place and let's talk slowly."
Wen Zheliu's face felt a little hot, and He Qin suddenly held his chin and stared at him darkly.
"What's wrong with your face?"
"What?" Wen Zheliu pulled his hand down embarrassedly, "My face..."
Then he suddenly realized that the image in the virtual world truly reflected the situation in real life. The wounds on his face caused by Liu Tianxiong had not fully healed. Even now, the corners of his mouth are still bruised and swollen, and his cheekbones are still bruised and swollen. There was also some bruising.
"No, it's okay..." Wen Zheliu hesitated, "It was just... I had a fight with someone."
He Qin's eyes were cold and he continued to ask: "Who hit me?"
He let Wen Zheliu take his hand, and pressed his fingertips stubbornly but gently on the injured lip corner. This cherished and careful action was like a ball of fire, burning all the way into Wen Zheliu along with the temperature of He Qin's skin. The heart of broken willow.
"We're here anyway. People in the real world... it will be hard to meet them again for a while..." Wen Zheliu's ears were burning red, and his heart was boiling. He hurriedly used some strength. , pressed down He Qin's arm again, "It's okay, it will be fine in a while."
He Qin looked at it for a while, then turned away and sneered: "Okay, let's wait until we get out."
He was still wearing the black sweatshirt and military trousers of the same color that Wen Zheliu had worn when he first met him, but the mask on his face was missing. The dark military boots silently ran over the stones embedded in the mud, turning the ape-like arm into a wasp waist. The figure with broad shoulders and long legs is so eye-catching that it looks like an agile and wild leopard.
The two of them were walking side by side. Wen Zheliu thought for a while and asked, "Should I return the dog tag to you?"
He Qin said: "You can continue to keep it. It's good that I can appear here now. The dog tags are given to me for nothing."
Wen Zheliu nodded. At this time, Mu Tuo couldn't hold back after all. He came over and said, "This friend..."
He Qin replied: "My name is He Qin, and I am his brother."
"Ah, Brother He Qin," Mu Tuo said, "What on earth is going on with you?"
Before hearing Zheliu speak, He Qin said: "We are also confused now and don't know what happened."
Wen Zheliu looked surprised, pulled He Qin's sleeve and said, "But wouldn't it be nice to have one more person to help? I was shocked when he was called by the system."

Mu Tuo was doubtful, but there was no better explanation at the moment, so he could only say congratulations angrily, and then walked to the front.
He Qin glanced at him, smiled and repeated in a low voice: "Are you really shocked?"
He raised his dark eyebrows, and his pale peach blossom eyes were full of teasing and tenderness. Wen Zheliu couldn't laugh or cry: "You are so annoying."
The group of people walked along the path to the end, and finally saw a towering wooden sign in the mist.
"What is that?" Zhou Qing ran over first, "Come on, let's go take a look!"
Zhou Yao said quickly: "Be careful, don't be so rash!"
A group of people came forward one after another and looked at the lonely wooden sign. Its wood color was very old, and the English squiggles painted on it with dark red paint had been washed away by wind and rain all the year round. Most of it had fallen off, leaving only mottled spots. The marks of denting were left on it, making it look extremely dilapidated.
"Next stop... maryann cabin..." Wen Zheliu struggled to identify, "At the end of the path, there is a small wooden house... If there are travelers coming from afar, you can stay there for a night..."
This is an old stop sign.
At this time, the system prompt sounded in everyone's ears again.
Side quest: Searching for the main quest (1/1) has been completed.

Main mission 1: Arrive at maryann's cabin (0/1)
Wen Zheliu was confused by a series of system prompts. Before he could see the changes in attributes after reaching level five, someone in the team took out the system reward in the package: "Hey, it's a self-defense stick!"
Wen Zheliu also looked through the package and found that what was given to him was a pair of long steel knives. The grade was also E-level. Compared with the rusty daggers he had before, he didn't know how much better they were.
"Here you go," he separated one handful and handed it to He Qin's hand, "one for each of you."
"Hmm." He Qin nodded and said thoughtfully, "Half of you, half of me, you are my other half?"
Wen Zheliu: "... What kind of advertising slogan is this from ancient times?"
Du Zijun, who was sitting next to him, was smoking a cigarette. Hearing this misleading dialogue, he couldn't help but cast a surprised look at the two of them with his slender eyes: "Tsk, you damn fagot."
Suddenly receiving this inexplicable verbal attack, Wen Zheliu couldn't help being surprised. Before he could speak, Zhou Qing hugged Du Zijun's slender waist from the side and said calmly: "No, Sister, it’s already 2301, an era where even humans and robots can get married, so don’t be so rigid. By the way, your title is insulting. If in an ordinary game, I can Report you to the United Anti-Discrimination Association."
A strange blush appeared on Du Zijun's pale face. She glared at Zhou Qing, silently and gently broke away from her intimate embrace, and took the initiative to walk to the front of the team. As she walked, she took out a dark stick from her backpack. baton.
Hearing that Zheliu thanked Zhou Qing for the rescue, he complained to He Qin: "Look, it has caused discomfort to his teammates."
He Qin curled his thin lips and glanced casually at Du Zijun who was walking in the front row. He bumped the long knife twice in his palm, as if he was getting used to the feel of the hand. "Baby, after brother completes this walk with you, why don't you wait for me?" Knowing where to go next, can you bear to tie my mouth now?"
Wen Zheliu was about to refute, but then he thought about it. The result of summoning He Qin this time could only be regarded as an accident. If he really survived this first world, He Qin would still be able to survive in the second world. Can the current props be maintained in their current condition? Where can he find the Newbie Lucky Wheel and draw a second prize
He sighed and stopped talking.
He Qin saw his depression, took the initiative to put his arm around his shoulders, and comforted him: "It's okay. There will be a road for the car to reach the mountain, and it will be straight when the boat reaches the bridge. Just let nature take its course."
"Yeah." Wen Zheliu nodded.
At this time, Zhou Qing blinked and quietly came over from the side: "Brother, are you and this Chi Nian brother... really a couple?"
"Huh?" Wen Zheliu was startled and retorted with a guilty conscience, "That must not be the case! He is just more gay, but in fact we are both straight, okay!"
"Really?" Zhou Qing was doubtful, "But I heard him calling you...calling you baby."
"No." Wen Zheliu couldn't help but laugh or cry, "This is just his habitual spoken language. If you want to hear it, I'll ask him to call you that too."
He Qin and Wen Zheliu were walking side by side. He Qin didn't speak, but his eyes seemed to be smiling but not smiling. He glanced over from the side with a cool look, which made Zhou Qing tremble violently. He hurriedly didn't dare to talk to Wen Zheliu, and trotted forward to find her brother. .
Wen Zheliu murmured: "Girls nowadays can really think."
He Qin said casually, "Really?"
Zhou Qing lamented: "Today's straight men really don't know they are gay even though they are gay."
Zhou Yao: "?"
Gradually, as time passed, there were only sporadic and brief conversations between everyone, and everyone concentrated on continuing to walk forward along the path. Although the sun at this time was still hidden behind thick clouds, the time was already approaching noon. However, the forests on both sides of the road were still filled with milky mist, hazy, like a layer of lingering thin and thick layers. Veil.
In this unusual silence, Wen Zheliu keenly smelled a different kind of dangerous atmosphere. It felt like there were many pairs of eyes staring at them.
Wen Zheliu slowly straightened up his waist and tightened his grip on the steel knife in his hand. He felt a sticky chill creeping up his spine. He whispered, "Brother."
"Why." He Qin frowned, moved his thin lips slightly, and said in an equally soft and fast voice, "Did you find something?"
Wen Zheliu said: "I think..."
Before he could even say the word "de", an extremely piercing scream suddenly came from the front of the team!
"Help! Something, something caught me! Help!"
The players were in an uproar, and the two of them suddenly looked up. If they heard correctly, this should be the voice of the woman in the couple!
"Fangfei!" her boyfriend yelled, "Don't be afraid, I'm here to save you!"
Including He Qin later, the total number of players in the group was thirteen. However, the trail was muddy and narrow and could not accommodate all the players. Everyone consciously dispersed into small groups and walked forward one by one. Although Wen Zheliu and He Qin looked suspicious and ranked last, the self-defense weapons assigned to them were also the most powerful among the players. At this moment, Wen Zheliu pushed aside the panicked people in front of him with one hand, and then raised his knife and moved forward, "Give way! Those who are not strong in combat will automatically retreat!"
At this time, a huge howling sound came from the forest again, but the sound was inhuman. It was like hysterical laughter, but also like the gasping and roaring from a broken bellows. Wen Zheliu and He Qin Before he could reach the crowd, he couldn't help but be shocked for a moment.
I saw a thick purple-black tongue with bloody flesh shooting out from the trees diagonally in front. It was covered with dense barbs. It was wrapping around Lin Fangfei's waist and abdomen, trying to pull her into the dense forest. Her Her boyfriend Lu Hai held a long stick and hit it hard twice, but with little effect. Seeing that the weapon was useless, he simply threw away the stick, held his girlfriend with both hands, and dragged her back, "Help! Save her!!"
"Idiot, pick up your weapon!" Du Zijun clenched his cigarette and hit his tongue with a stick. Small electric currents rushed around, and at the same time angered the creatures lurking in the forest. It suddenly released its grip on Lin Fangfei, The tongue, which was as thick as an adult man's forearm, struck Du Zijun's abdomen fiercely, with a sound of breaking wind, and flew her away. Lu Hai, who was holding his girlfriend, also fell backwards due to the huge inertia. He rolled into a ball on the ground.
"Fuck you..." Du Zijun had blood on the corner of her mouth and a sinister look on her face. Apart from the mud spots on her white skirt, there was also mucus from her tongue that seemed to be mixed with flesh and blood. She was about to cover her belly and get up. Hearing that Zheliu had jumped out from behind, he drew his knife and slashed at the bloody tongue that was moving towards Lin Fangfei again as fast as a snake!
"Go to the back." He Qin followed closely behind, without even glancing at the young couple from the corner of his eye, and ordered coldly.
The defense-breaking power of a long steel knife is many times greater than that of a wooden stick. It can be heard that once the knife was cut down, the arm was numb from the force of the recoil, and the blade suddenly bounced up half an inch. His mind whirled, and he opened the five fingers of his right hand instantly. He took the knife with his left hand, changed it from chopping to cutting, and stabbed the knife diagonally. He actually immersed the steel blade half an inch into the tongue, and the rotten black blood spilled out!
The monster let out a hiss of pain in the forest and swung its long tongue wildly. Wen Zheliu was not greedy for the knife and hurriedly retreated. He Qin flicked the long knife and took over Wen Zheliu's position the moment he retreated. position, the two sides cooperated perfectly and had a tacit understanding. If Wen Zheliu was just a beginner in using knives and could only react faster than ordinary people, then He Qin was obviously a master at this.
Just as Wen Zheliu saw in the survival world, his sword was as powerful as thunder, intercepting shadows as it came and went. Even though he only had an E-level prop, he could wield it with the edge of a famous sword in the world. The creature in the forest was keenly aware of the danger at this moment. It wanted to twitch its tongue and leave immediately, but it was unable to match the speed of He Qin's sharp knife. The tip of its tongue fell to the ground instantly, and flew into the grass together with the smelly rotten blood!
The bloody tongue contracted like electricity, and the hidden monster also burst out with a burst of crazy roars and roars of pain. The forest immediately shook violently from far to near, as if some huge monster was about to rush out from it.
There was a loud noise and dust flew up. The players behind him collectively took a breath of cold air. Wen Zheliu put down the hand that was blocking the sand and stones in front of his eyes and clenched his teeth unconsciously.
... What stood in front of them was a huge, half-prostrate humanoid creature on the ground.
It has no skin or hair, and its exposed, knotted purple-black muscle texture is dripping with disgusting rancid mucus. It has no eyes or nose on its face, only a ferocious huge mouth, which occupies one-half of the entire face. . The mouth was split almost to the back of the head, and was filled with dense, jagged, sharp teeth. A long tongue was hanging down from the inside, swaying from side to side like a living snake. But at this moment, the tip of the tongue was broken, and mucus mixed with black blood kept dripping, turning the ground into a scorched black.
"Blood is corrosive," He Qin said in a low voice to Wen Zheliu without changing his expression, "Pay attention to this."
He Qin's calm and calm attitude also infected him, Wen Zheliu nodded lightly. At the same time, he also noticed its deformed and huge claws that supported the upper body. This humanoid creature with hands and feet was nearly three meters long. Even if it was only half-lying on the ground, it was enough to overlook a person. An adult man of average height, but fortunately his legs are always bent in a twisted posture, and he can only move by using his hands and feet. This may be a good thing for players.
Wen Zheliu also noticed that the monster's lower body was a mess of ulcers, and it didn't even have any obvious sexual characteristics, and he didn't know why.
While the players were observing it, it was also shaking its head from side to side, observing the movements and status of the players with non-existent eyes. Wen Zheliu tensed up and asked in a low voice, "Brother, can you tell that this is What level?"
He Qin said: "Don't fight hard, you won't be able to fight."
At this moment, Wen Zheliu stayed behind and He Qin was in front. The two of them formed a diagonal defensive formation, blocking the ten players behind them.
Mu Tuo was greatly surprised: "Wen Di, you..."
"Brother Mu, keep an eye on those two people," Wen Zheliu said without looking back, "Although I don't know the reason, it is obviously aimed at them."
Mu Tuo clenched the harpoon in his hand and said solemnly: "Then be careful..."
Before the words were finished, the monster on the opposite side seemed to have finished assessing their combat effectiveness. It let out a heavy breathing sound, grinned its sharp teeth, and raised the corners of its long and narrow mouth to both sides, showing the players an expression that was almost a ferocious smile.
"Alert!" He Qin's muscles tensed up and he shouted at Wen Zheliu. At that moment, the posture of holding the sword in one hand was changed to holding it tightly with both hands. The light of the sword was as fast as lightning, and He Qin's posture seemed to be gathering momentum. The leopard, which was at the peak of its excitement, showed a cold and cruel heroic spirit at this moment -
"Follow me!"
Wen Zheliu's heart suddenly moved, as if there was a transparent and invisible thread that held the two people together. He moved his steps, held the knife in both hands, and crossed with He Qin's knife to form an
