Chapter 115 - Stay Where You Are and Dont Run Around (2/2)
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.”
