Chapter 9: Hunting and Killing

When Su Bai was playing the game, he admired and liked the virtual character of Laura. Now that I've actually come to the world of the game and spent some time alone with the virtual character I once liked, this love has also been sublimated, and it seems that there is a tendency to go further.

Especially Laura, who seems to have a certain affection for him, makes it even more difficult for Su Bai to suppress this heartbeat.

Just thinking of his current situation, Su Bai sighed again.

"Remember, you're just a passerby and you'll leave this world sooner or later. There are some things that must never happen. Keep a certain distance from Laura, it's good for everyone. ”

He reminded himself in his mind.

At this moment, he had a deeper understanding of the sentence that the voice said, "All plot characters are not NPCs, but flesh-and-blood and real human beings", and its reminder of his "careful handling of the attitude towards plot characters".

A peaceful night passed.

The next morning, Laura opened her eyes to a fire that was still burning.

She sat up, a jacket slipping off her.

"Sue?"

Putting her jacket aside, she stood up and looked around, but she didn't see Su Bai's figure.

Laura put on her vest and walked along the path while shouting Su Bai's name: "Su? Where are you? Sue! ”

After walking some distance, a secluded valley appeared ahead.

A thin mist flowed slowly through the dense forest, and the sound of gurgling water came from ahead.

Laura ran ahead, and several crows fluttered their wings on the side of the road.

"Sue!"

She shouted, her voice echoing through the valley.

"Laura! I am here. ”

Su Bai's voice came from the front, and Laura's face suddenly showed excitement, and she ran forward and came to a small river.

"Ahh

She stopped, letting out a low exclamation.

I saw a corpse hanging upside down next to the big tree in front of me.

"Laura, here!"

When Laura heard the voice, she saw Su Bai standing on top of a large rock, waving at her.

"Sue!"

Laura ran towards Su Bai and stood under the stone and looked up at him.

"Laura, I'm going to get this body down now. He has a bow on his back, and we can hunt with it. Su Bai said to Laura.

Laura looked up at the hanging corpse, and sure enough, she saw a bow on the corpse's back.

At this time, Su Bai stepped on a single-plank bridge formed by a small tree that fell on a big tree at the edge of the stone, and walked towards the big tree where the corpse was hanging.

"Be careful."

With worry on her face, Laura shouted at Su Bai.

"Don't worry, it'll be fine."

Su Bai waved his hand at her, stood on the single-plank bridge, took a deep breath, and pounced directly on the corpse.

Laura let out a low cry and saw Su Bai grabbing the corpse and hanging it in the air. Then the weathered rope could not bear the weight and broke.

Boom.

Su Bai fell to the ground with the corpse.

"Sue!"

Laura rushed to Su Bai and helped him up, her face full of nervousness: "Are you okay?" ”

"Ahem, I'm fine. Let me take a break and take a breath. ”

Su Bai coughed a few times and said.

I have to say that the strengthened body is indeed not comparable to ordinary people, and he basically did not suffer any injuries when he fell from a height of more than three meters. If you are an ordinary person, if you are unlucky, you may have to break a few bones.

Su Bai sat up and gasped for breath, then stood up with Laura's support.

"I'm fine."

He spoke to Laura, and then walked over to the corpse, resisting discomfort and removing the bow from the corpse's back.

"Laura, will you use this?"

Handing the bow to Laura, Su Bai asked.

As a former ordinary college student, Su Bai did not know archery. After all, in modern times, except for some enthusiasts, basically no one will learn bows and arrows.

Even those who learn bows and arrows mostly practice the art of athletics, with an emphasis on the right head and the goal being the target. If they were to hunt with bows and arrows, they would not even think about it.

But Laura is clearly not an ordinary person.

She took the bow, and did not dislike getting it from the corpse, pulled the bowstring and tried it, and said, "Ross taught me, and it should be no problem for me to get used to it." ”

At the same time, the mechanical voice sounded in Su Bai's ears.

"Acquire the skill Cold Weapon Mastery (Bow and Arrow) lv1."

Cold Weapon Mastery (Bow and Arrow) Lv1: Master the basic use of bows and arrows and actual combat skills. Expandable and upgradeable.

"As expected!"

Su Bai's spirits perked up, and he soon felt a large amount of information about the use of bows and arrows rushing into his mind. In a moment, he felt as if he had been practicing bows and arrows for years.

"There's an arrow over there."

Laura took a few steps forward with her bow in hand, picking up a pot of arrows from the corner of a stone fortress-like hut.

"There's an arrow bag here."

Su Bai pulled a leather quiver from the back of the corpse, poured out the sundries inside, and handed it over.

Laura placed the six arrows she found into her quiver and carried it to her back.

There was a commotion in the bushes not far away, and a deer jumped out of the bushes and looked at the two men.

"Laura!"

Su Bai was stunned, and immediately called Laura in a low voice, and gestured with his eyes to the deer who lowered his head and drank water by the river.

Laura had a look of hesitation on her face.

"Laura, we need food to replenish our strength, otherwise we can't go to anyone else." Su Bai knew what she was hesitating about, and accentuated her tone, "You have to do this, Laura." ”

Laura bit her lip, pulled an arrow from her quiver and placed it on the bow, then pulled the bowstring and aimed it at the deer.

Su Bai didn't speak again.

He trusts Laura to know what to do.

Although he can do it himself and not let Laura's hands get bloody, it is very detrimental to Laura's growth.

His previous experience had taught him that many times he had to be ruthless and let Laura do something on her own. Otherwise, it will be even more difficult for Laura to confront the ferocious and brutal Russian thugs on the island, as well as the supernatural Storm Samurai.

He couldn't have protected Laura all the time. Besides, if Laura doesn't grow, he can't become stronger, let alone protect Laura.

So he had to do it.

Laura's arms trembled slightly, her lips pursed together, and she let go of the bowstring when she saw that the deer was about to leave after drinking.

Shout!

The arrow whistled out and sank deep into the deer's neck.

With a wail, the deer fell to the ground in an instant, and after a few gasps, it was silent.

Laura slowly lowered her bow and walked over to the deer, tears glistening in her eyes.

"Sorry......"

She muttered under her breath and knelt beside the carcass of the deer.

Su Bai looked at her with some worry, walked behind Laura, and just wanted to say comfort, he saw Laura take out an arrow, and after screaming, he held the arrow and stabbed it into the deer's chest, and then pulled it down hard, directly disemboweling the deer corpse.

Her actions made Su Bai stunned, and then she silently squatted down, pulled out an arrow from Laura's back quiver, and then used a sharp arrow to process the venison.
