Chapter 34: The Abandoned Son (Red Ticket Plus Update)
Early in the morning, Lu Village.
"Bang!" Qin Long's door was slammed open by Philo, who shouted at Qin Long, "Wolves!! ”
"Is it already here?" A sharp glint flashed in Qin Long's eyes, and he stood up calmly. He hadn't slept last night, and he had nightmares and many mixed mirrors that had been haunting him, and it wasn't until Philo broke into the room that he was freed from the nightmares.
"Let's go, go up to the village and have a look!" Qin Long wiped his face and said.
By the time Qin Long and Fei Luo came to the front of the village, Lu Feng and the other two village chiefs had already led the hunters in the village to observe the wolves in front of the village, and several other reincarnators were also coming one after another.
The wolves in front of the village were not like the two wolves that Xu Mo encountered, they were clearly divided into two groups, but they were all gathered together, and when they looked at the past, they were all black, and it was impossible to see the specific number at all, but from the slightly different fur of the wolves, it could be distinguished that at least there were more than ten groups, which was more than Lu Feng and they estimated.
"Sure enough, sure enough! He's right, this kind of amount ......" The two village chiefs, Lu Feng and Meng Xu, glanced at each other, shocked with a hint of happiness.
Qin Long and the other reincarnators changed color one after another, they had already realized the danger. Several reincarnators with high perception were even more pale, and cold sweat broke out, no matter who they were, at this time, they already understood that they would face the most severe test.
"Wenwen, where is she, hurry up and let her see the specific surname of the wild wolf, how many there are." Qin Long turned around and shouted.
"Wenwen's room is empty, it seems to be ...... Missing! A reincarnation said with an ugly face.
"What?" Qin Long was stunned on the spot as if he was struck by lightning, in this temporary team, only Wenwen was the one who really supported him, and the others were all good-looking, each with a ghost.
But now, even Wenwen chose to leave, could it be said that he really made the wrong choice, he shouldn't have led the team to stay in Lu Village at all, or he shouldn't have accepted that damn hidden side quest at all.
At this time, a reincarnation person ran from the direction behind the village and shouted: "Qin Long, those bandits have also disappeared!" There were only more than 10 villagers in the back of the village on the defensive, and the bandits ran away! ”
"What about the wolves behind the village?" Qin Long calmed down now and asked in a deep voice.
"Wolves? It seems that there are less than a hundred! The reincarnation's eyes lit up, "Those bandits have attracted the wolves behind the village, should we retreat from the back of the village immediately?" ”
"No! Now let's go, as soon as the wolves attack, those villagers will definitely not be able to stop us, and we will be caught up by the wolves if we can't walk a few hundred meters! Philo said with a gloomy face.
"Yes, we must first withstand the first wave of the wolves and give these villagers a little confidence. Help us hold back the wolves when we retreat, so we have a chance to distance ourselves from the wolves! Qin Long's gaze dimmed, between the villagers and his own members, he had to choose to keep the members.
At this time, Xu Mo and the others had already finished resting and were back on the road.
Suddenly, Xu Mo frowned, looked at the back of the team, and shouted with a sinking face: "Come out!" ”
With Xu Mo's words, a woman walked out of the woods on the right side of the mountain road. The woman wore a bun on her head and a silk jacket, and her face was delicate. But at this time, her hair was in a messy bun, her face was sweating, and she was wheezing hard.
Xu Mo frowned, he remembered that this woman should be in Qin Long's team, the team member named Wenwen, how could she be here.
"Big Brother K, don't you remember me?" Dinah leaned down, her hands on her knees, and she breathed heavily.
Since last night, Dinah has been rushing to catch up with Xu Mo's team, and finally caught up with Xu Mo in the early morning, but physical strength and agility are not Dinah's strong points, so she is almost exhausted and almost collapsed.
Hearing Dinah's words, Xu Mo was shocked, turned around, waved his hand to the stopped team, and motioned for them to go first. Then he turned around again, walked up to Dinah, and asked in a low voice, "Dinah?" ”
Dinah's eyes lit up, she quickly straightened up, and said happily: "It's me, it seems that Brother K hasn't forgotten me yet!" ”
"The name Lao K, I have only used it in the trial world, and in that world, there are only a few people who survive, and you are the only female surname!" Xu Mo said lightly, a hint of memory appeared in his eyes.
Penny ...... She's dead? Dinah paused for a moment and said with a complicated expression.
"Yes, she's dead!" Xu Mo said slowly, "Since you have escaped, come with us!" ”
"No, Brother K, I'm not chasing after you, not to go with you!" Dinah hesitated, but still refused, "You should be the eighth reincarnation to receive this task!" I hope you can help us, and with your wisdom, you will be able to figure out a way to accomplish this task. ”
"Find a way to accomplish this?" Xu Mo laughed dumbly, "I've completed this task!" ”
Xu Mo said, pointing to the villagers and bandit teams that were gradually moving away, and said: "The villagers of the three mountain villages here have exceeded one-third of the total, as long as they walk out of the Luliang Mountain Road, we will not only be out of danger, but also complete this bronze-level hidden side quest!" ”
"What about the villagers and Qin Long who stayed in Lu Village?" Dinah's face changed dramatically and she asked quickly.
"They will depend on the goddess of fate, and if they are lucky, they will survive a few people. Luckily, they won't have to venture in this damn space anymore, maybe that's a good thing for them. Xu Mo said lightly.
"You treat them like outcasts? Aren't you afraid that the wolves will catch up with you after they kill them all? Dinah said bitterly.
"Dinah...... You're still so kind, have you forgotten what I said to you when I first entered the world of trials, hiding in that Cretaceous lake? Xu Mo shook his head and sighed lightly.
"Brother K, you mean, the wolves are for food? After they break through Lu Village, they will only enjoy the food first, and they will not chase you anymore! Dinah suddenly realized.
"Yes, with the number of those wolves, I don't have any hope that Lu Village will be able to stop it for long. What really consumes the wolves' time is the feeding phase of the cattle after they have conquered the village. It's just that the wolves, after eating those who stayed, could no longer catch up with us. After all, Lu Village is only a day away from Jiang Cheng, and we have already walked all night now, and we will soon walk out of Lu Liang Mountain Road. ”
Xu Mo said, sighed lightly again, and continued:
"The method you have chosen to carry out this mission is fundamentally wrong. Lu Village is not enough to resist the attack of the wolves in terms of terrain and population, so the space will leave room for you in terms of the conditions for the completion of the mission, and only require you to rescue one-third of the total population. ”
"But...... But before last night, you still have time to remind us! If I had known that it was you, I would definitely persuade Qin Long to give up the leadership of the team and let you command us, in that case, everyone would still have a chance to escape! Dinah asked, her eyes wide.
"Qin Long is a very good person, he is bent on organizing a united team of reincarnators to survive together in the space. I can see that he is not the kind of person who has a strong desire for power, as long as there is a more suitable leader who can lead us to live together, he is happy to give up leadership! Dinah muttered to herself.
"Why, why, you have to give up on us without saying a word, just like in the world of trials!" Dinah cried out in a gaffe, disappointed.
"With the words of the villagers alone, they can't stop the wolves for a long time!" Xu Mo lowered his eyes and said coldly, "What's more, why should I save a bunch of selfish reincarnators who look like gods!" ”
"Let's go! We've wasted a lot of time! Xu Mo turned around and walked in the direction the team had left.
"I ...... I can't go! I...... To go back! Dinah said with a look of struggle on her face.
"Maybe I'll go back now, just in time to save Qin Long and them! Brother K, those villagers should be able to get out of danger without you now. Can you help us, with your strength, even if you can't save Qin Long and them, you can get out! Dinah pleaded bitterly with Xu Mo.
Hearing Dinah's words, Xu Mo turned around like a whirlwind, stared at Dinah's eyes with a red glow, and said word by word:
"I repeat, I'm not going to save those selfish reincarnators who look like gods! In my eyes, they are no different from the villagers who have been abandoned by me, they are just some outcasts! Are you going to follow me? ”
"I ...... I ......" Dinah's face changed several times, and finally slowly quieted down, and said indifferently, "I'm going to go back and see, the team still needs me, I can't just leave." Even if I can't save them, I'm going to see their bodies with my own eyes! ”
As she spoke, Dinah turned around and walked in the direction of Lu Village, and the spring morning breeze came her last words: "I'm not as cold-blooded as you!" ”
