Chapter 4 Join the Exploration Team
After a while, Yang Chuangrui, who was chatting with Xiao Shi, saw the four members of the oncoming exploration team.
Stopping the conversation with Xiao Shi, Yang Chuangrui took a deep breath, stood up and turned his head to look at the leader of the exploration team, and asked with a little nervousness:
"You... You guys... What are you going to do with me? ”
The four of them stood still and were silent for about four or five seconds, and the captain did not answer Yang Chuangrui's question directly, but turned his head to look at Xiaoshi and ordered:
"Take him to the outsider's quarters, tell him the rules here, and bring him to me tomorrow." After saying that, he prepared to leave with the three team members.
"Can I join you?" Yang Chuangrui shouted loudly, pausing slightly, and then added, "I mean to join your exploration team." ”
The four of them didn't stop, only one sentence came, "Come to us tomorrow, as long as you pass the test, you can be brought on the next mission." After saying that, he walked out of the small courtyard.
"Let's go, I'll take you to find a place to live!" Xiaoshi got up and said to Yang Chuangrui.
The two walked silently through the streets.
I followed the little stone to the edge of the town and came to a small square in front of a low stone house.
"Xiaoshi has brought a newcomer again, how about going out to harvest this time?"
Yang Chuangrui turned his head to look in the direction where the voice came from, and saw a sloppy bearded middle-aged man walking towards them.
"Pate, help him find a place to live." Xiao Shi didn't seem to have any intention of talking to this person much, and there was some command in his words.
"Also, you don't have to take him to work tomorrow, the food will be distributed as usual." Then Xiao Shi's gaze turned to Yang Chuangrui, and his tone became brisk, and he continued:
"Wait for me to come to you tomorrow, if you can pass the test, we will be teammates, you have a good rest, I'll go first." After speaking, without waiting for Yang Chuangrui to respond, Xiao Shi waved his hand and turned to leave.
After Xiaoshi left, Pate looked at Yang Chuangrui carefully, and then said:
"Come with me, there's an empty room over here."
"I'm in trouble." Yang Chuangrui said as he followed Pate into a hut.
There are three rooms in the hut, all of which are about 20 square meters, and the furniture and other things in them are all made of stone, and from Pate's mouth, there are no other occupants in the hut at present.
As soon as he entered one of the rooms, Pate lowered his voice and asked:
"What city are you from? Are you going to take the test? Are you planning to get out of here? ”
Yang Chuangrui was slightly startled, and then asked rhetorically:
"Why do you ask? Isn't there no restriction on outsiders here? ”
"It's true that there are no restrictions on going and staying here, but it's too dangerous outside, and you can't get out without an escort." Pate suppressed his voice again and continued:
"I don't think you're an ordinary person, if you can pass the test and join the exploration team, come here and find me, I'll tell you the ruins that can find a lot of crystals." After speaking, without waiting for Yang Chuangrui to ask a question, Pate quickly exited the room.
"The gods are mysterious and don't finish their words, why don't any people here can speak well." Yang Chuangrui complained.
He tidied up the room and lay on a stone bed covered with animal skins with his hands on the back of his head, reflecting on what had happened today.
"It's really crossed, how sad it would be for parents to find out that the cub they had raised for 25 years had disappeared so silently!"
At this time, a voice suddenly came from outside the window:
"Don't believe anything Pate says."
Yang Chuangrui stood up suddenly, and quickly ran to the window to check, only to see a figure disappear into the corner of the house.
"What the hell is going on here, there really isn't a normal person here?"
…………
At this time, in a small building in a small courtyard in the center of the town.
"Captain, are you really going to let that outsider join our team?" A rugged voice asked, confused.
Zhan replied with some helplessness:
"It only took him one night to absorb all the energy in a complete crystal, which is at least a fourth-level warrior, and if he strikes at us on the road, none of us will be able to escape."
"We don't know what his purpose is, let's agree to his request first and see what he wants to do." Then he spoke again:
"You all heard his conversation with Little Stone, he seems to have been injured in the brain, he has forgotten a lot, he doesn't even know the crystal, he doesn't know the steel monsters, if he doesn't pretend, then he is no threat to us for the time being."
"The three of you don't come into contact with him for the time being, so as not to have any accidents."
"Got it, Captain." The three of them replied in unison.
…………
Early the next morning, Yang Chuangrui waited in the small square, in fact, he didn't know what time it was, he was woken up by the sound of the people around him closing the door, he felt that it should be the next morning.
After a while, he saw the little stone come out of the town.
"Let's go, I'll take you to the captain." Xiao Shi walked up to Yang Chuangrui and said.
Yang Chuangrui asked suspiciously: "What is the general content of the test?" ”
"It's to test your speed, strength, and proficiency in using weapons, and if you meet the standards of a second-level warrior, you can generally be selected."
The new term "second-level warrior" attracted Yang Chuangrui, this should be the hierarchy system of this world.
Then he asked:
"What is a second-class warrior? By what criteria are they judged? ”
"I don't know, they said they would feel it after reaching level two, anyway, it's very powerful." After a pause, Little Stone continued:
"I heard that in the past, there was no need to test the soldiers above the second level to join the squad, because someone pretended to be a second-level soldier to join the squad, which caused the team to be almost wiped out when it encountered danger, so the test was unified."
The more Yang Chuangrui listened, the more doubts in his heart became, "How can I improve my level?" ”
"You don't know that? That's right, you don't even know about crystals. After answering himself, Xiao Shi said:
"It's very simple, carrying the crystal can absorb the energy in the crystal, making the body stronger, and the energy will break through when it reaches a critical point, and you will be promoted."
"It's that simple?"
"Simple? Crystals are very difficult to obtain, and everyone's absorption rate is different, and only the leader of the tribe has been promoted to a third-level warrior. ”
With that, Little Stone stopped.
"We're here, I don't know much, you go and ask Brother Zhan about them." Walking to the door of a small courtyard, Xiaoshi spoke.
"Forget it, that captain doesn't look very friendly." Yang Chuangrui complained.
Entering the small courtyard, Yang Chuangrui saw the four people who were training.
Seeing the arrival of the two, the captain did not stop moving, and said:
"Here, let's go sit on the stool next to me for a while, and wait for me."
The two walked over to the stool and sat down.
Watching the four of them skillfully compare the weapons in their hands, Yang Chuangrui began to panic a little, he is neither a second-level warrior, nor does he use any cold weapons, he only knows that his physical fitness is indeed much stronger than before, and he doesn't know if he can pass the captain's test.
After a while, the captain put away his long sword and walked over, and he asked Yang Chuangrui:
"Why are you staying here, and why do you want to join the Exploration Team?"
At this time, the other three team members seemed to be seriously familiar with the moves, but in fact, they were panicked, and their attention was completely focused on Yang Chuangrui.
Yang Chuangrui had long thought that the other party would ask this kind of question, and he didn't intend to tell all lies, so he replied directly with half-truths:
"When I woke up, I saw that it was you, I seemed to have a head injury, I can't remember a lot of things, I thought it would be safer to be with you, so I followed you here."
"I joined the expedition because I wanted to find out why I was here and what happened to me, I'm not familiar with this place, so I wanted to join you and follow you on a mission to see if I could find any key information."
After speaking, Yang Chuangrui stared directly at the captain, waiting for his reply.
The captain was uncomfortable by Yang Chuangrui's eyes, he was afraid that after refusing, he would be directly killed by the person in front of him, and he was afraid that this person would do something unfavorable to the town.
"How could I save myself from such a big trouble! I didn't meddle with anything before I knew it. ”
After hesitating, the captain decided to follow Yang Chuangrui's meaning first, and then he pretended to be calm and said:
"Welcome to join, the next mission is in 14 days," then he threw a metal tag to Yang Chuangrui, "The identity card of the exploration team, you can go to the blacksmith to build your favorite weapon with this, or you can find an empty house in the town to live in." ”
After saying that, the captain turned around and quickly ran back to the training team.
"That's it? This joins the scouting team? What about the said good test? ”
Yang Chuangrui touched the metal brand in his hand with a confused face, and he couldn't figure out the situation at all.
