Although the situation at the scene was a bit confusing, Chu Lu still made a quick judgment.

He held Han Lenian tightly and quickly communicated the current situation with Mao Xingchang in his sea of consciousness.

Mao Xingchang: “!!!”

As expected of Brother Chu, he managed to infiltrate the enemy without even knowing his fate!

Chu Lu: ...No.

It was just a coincidence, and it was a coincidence he didn't want.

Even Chu Lu didn't expect that his adopted brother would be the protagonist of this fate line.

No, actually, now that I think about it, there are still many signs...

For example, Han Lenian's body has an obviously unusual amount of spiritual power reserves.

Before Chu Lu remembered which world this was, he subconsciously thought it was normal because the objects he unconsciously used as comparison were Xiang Zhengqi and Li Shengru, the people he was most familiar with in the last mission. However, it was already abnormal to use these two people as comparison templates.

Thinking of this, Chu Lu almost immediately determined that this was definitely a plot point.

Chu Lu interrupted Mao Xingchang's endless flattery and asked what the plot was supposed to be like.

Mao Xingchang: “!”

He suddenly realized that this was a scene where the mission had failed and he was being watched by his predecessors.

Mao Xingchang suddenly felt that his life had lost its meaning, and his mood became gloomy.

Mao Xingchang hesitated, but finally told the truth after Chu Lu's slightly tough questioning.

In a sense, the plot this time is very simple.

Beat up the group of protagonists and threw them off the mountain. This is a common operation for the villain to gain experience for the protagonist in the early stage.

Chu Lu had also taken on this kind of task before. The key point was probably to control the strength and be careful not to be too harsh. If there was enough strength, he could also guide the protagonist reasonably and try his best to increase his strength.

But now...

Chu Lu saw the alien lying on the ground, looking almost dead or alive, and then looked at Han Lenian, who seemed about to kick him if he hadn't been held back.

Chu Lu: "..."

This was the first time he had encountered such a situation.

Chu Lu recalled with difficulty the various graduation assessments for this newcomer. It seemed that his strength was F. He remembered that the bureau had a special task matching analysis department. How did this task fall to Mao Xingchang?

Thinking of his experience of being forcibly kicked into a certain mission world, Chu Lu's face darkened: Maybe it was some old guy who did it again! !

He put the blame on a willful old guy without hesitation, but Chu Lu did not shirk his own responsibility: Han Lenian's current strength did not match that in the plot, and he was definitely partly responsible.

Mao Xingchang almost jumped up from the ground after receiving Chu Lu's apology. He spoke incoherently: [No, no, no, Brother Chu, it's me, I'm so bad... When I was training as a new employee, I almost failed because of this...]

In fact, he had already failed the assessment on force, and he only barely passed by relying solely on other scores, especially the written test scores, to raise his overall assessment.

[And this mission too, the Analysis Department had clearly already stopped it, but I still…]

No, in fact, he was already prepared for the mission to fail, and was even prepared for the salary to be deducted after the failure.

But if this is told truthfully...

Senior will definitely be angry, right? He will definitely be angry!!

...having an inappropriate attitude towards tasks or something.

[……]

Obviously Mao Xingchang was in a hurry and completely forgot to open his mouth when explaining. The howling sounds and Chu Lu's explanation in his consciousness sounded at the same time, and Han Lenian mistook them as a sign of attack.

Han Lenian made a prompt decision and pushed his younger brother behind him, making a gesture to gather strength.

Chu Lu, who was just trying to think of a way to smooth over this situation, said: "..."

Seeing that he was about to lose control of Han Lenian and let out a scream, Chu Lu sighed inwardly, quickly looked up to observe the surrounding terrain, quickly locked onto a few nodes, and clenched his fists.

When a certain plot point cannot be maintained, sometimes giving up decisively is an option.

This time, Mao Xingchang's plot is to beat up the protagonists and throw them off the mountain. Although the purpose of "beating them up" was not achieved, it is obvious that Mao Xingchang's character still has more scenes to play next and he cannot die here.

Chu Lu: [Be careful to avoid it.]

Before Mao Xingchang knew what was going on, he saw the entire cave shaking violently, with rubble rolling down and about to collapse completely in the blink of an eye.

On this side, Han Lenian, who was about to move forward, was also affected by the shaking. He staggered the moment he raised his foot. He relied on his body's balance to turn around and stand firm.

--earthquake?

No, it seems not.

Although he didn't know what had happened, Han Lenian didn't care about the alien in the corner. He crouched down, picked up Chu Lu, turned around and ran out of the cave.

A year later, Chu Lu was easily fished out again: "..."

Shouldn't he be thankful that this time he wasn't holding it under his armpits?

The gravel behind him rumbled down, and Chu Lu gave up arguing with Han Lenian about whether he could actually run on his own. He found his proper position and sat still. But he couldn't help but lower his head to look at his hands and sighed again.

——Sure enough, this body is too fragile.

Over there, Zhuang Zhan, who had finally followed the trail, saw the two brothers of the Han family running out from the billowing smoke and dust.

The resentment here was so dense and strong that he had goose bumps all over his body. Looking at the earth-shaking scene behind him, Zhuang Zhan immediately became stern and clenched the talisman in his hand, but the resentment here was so dense that it was very difficult for him to lock on to the target. Before he could make a judgment, he saw Han Lenian staggering and sitting on the ground as if he was exhausted.

Zhuang Zhan: !!!

He rushed over with bloodshot eyes, only to see...

The smoke and dust cleared, leaving nothing behind the two men.

Zhuang·Zhan, who thought they were being chased by ghosts: ???

His excitement was like being fed to a dog, and he couldn't help but angrily asked, "Why are you running so fast?"

Han Lenian couldn't help but look at him after hearing what he said, then looked at the collapsed cave behind him.

——If he didn’t run faster, he would probably be buried alive in there.

Zhuang Zhan: “…”

...seems to make some sense.

In short, given the current situation, the group finally went down the mountain.

Almost at the moment they left, Chu Lu received a message from Mao Xingchang, "Chu, Brother Chu, I think... I passed the mission for this plot point...?"

There was still a hint of uncertainty in his voice, and his doubts could be sensed even through the system.

Chu Lu thought to himself, "As expected", the key to this plot point is probably not who beats whom, but that Han Lenian must meet the monster that was raised by humans.

The key elements of each plot point are different. For things like this, you can accumulate experience by completing more tasks. However, this time it is rare for him to be in the same small world with his juniors, so he is willing to give them some advice.

Hearing that his senior was willing to give guidance, Mao Xingchang could hardly wait to pack up the information of this world.

This way, Chu Lu would not be completely in the dark about what would happen next.

This fate line is not too complicated. Han Lenian's father is actually the legitimate son of the previous generation of the Han family. However, he fell in love with Han Lenian's mother and left the Han family, hiding his identity. It's just that abnormalities attract each other. Although Han's father left the Han family, he could not get rid of his identity as a heavenly master. Finally, he was unfortunately killed in an attack by an evil spirit, leaving behind Han's mother and the unborn Han Lenian.

Han Lenian inherited his father's talent and was born with clairvoyance, but his mother was just an ordinary person and knew nothing about the situation in that world, so naturally she could not teach Han Lenian. Han Lenian concealed his abnormality and grew up stumbling. Later, with the help of a friend (Zhuang Zhan), he finally understood the other world. After a series of events, he recognized his ancestors and returned to the Han family, becoming the legitimate son of this generation.

However, in a sense, this is just the official beginning of the plot. The Han family's legitimate son is not a good thing. Rather than being a "legitimate son", it is better to say that he is a "container", and the head of the Han family is the final boss in this main line.

When Chu Lu was Li Shenglu, he had met this patriarch several times and felt that he was a little strange, but because it was irrelevant to the main plot, he did not pay much attention to it. Now it turns out that the reason is here.

An old monster who has lived for so many years naturally has mastered many lost forbidden techniques. The monster played by Mao Xingchang this time is the one raised by the head of the Han family. Although there are several plot points involving him in the early stage, his core mission is actually only one point, which is to reveal the doubts to Han Lenian and arouse his suspicion of the head of the Han family.

This is also why, even though the roles of the attacker and the attacked were reversed, Mao Xingchang's mission was still successful.

Because in the judgment, the key to this mission is not who beats whom, but "meeting" and "leaving".

Listening to Chu Lu's analysis, Mao Xingchang took notes and nodded frantically on the other end.

——Okay, okay, I understand!!

He is indeed a senior who broke the record that had been sealed for hundreds of years in the bureau! Oh, how lucky he is to get the guidance of a senior! Even if he fails in this mission, it is definitely worth it.

No no no, with the seniors here, there is no way the mission will fail!!

On the other side, Han Lenian, who had returned to school again, was leaning on the table in a daze, his hand unconsciously pressing on his left shoulder, with a worried expression on his face.

Although the prey mark on his neck was erased for unknown reasons, Zhuang Zhan's problem was obviously not solved. The other party said that he had another solution, but since the other party chose to go up the mountain with injuries that time, it means that the other solution would only be more troublesome than solving the ghost that left the mark.

Han Lenian frowned: As expected, let’s go again in the evening.

"Brother Han, Brother Han."

Han Lenian was daydreaming when he was stopped by his roommate.

Of course, the university does not force accommodation, but the military training period is an exception. Knowing that his brother is not an ordinary child, Han Lenian is also worried, but under Chu Lu's insistence, he finally decided to temporarily live in the school for a few days during the military training.

They were all students who had just graduated from high school, and their minds were still pure. Han Lenian stood out in the military training because of his physical fitness, which he had developed from being chased by ghosts since he was a child. Under the influence of the psychology of admiring the strong, Han Lenian even dared to say that this was definitely the most popular time in his life, at least so far.

Roommate: "We are short of 1 person in our group, Han, if you are free, please lend a hand."

Han Lenian's life is indeed different from that of normal people. Hearing the other party say this, he was stunned for two seconds before he guessed from the computer that the other party had already opened that he was talking about "playing games."

Because of the accident on the mountain, the training was suspended these days, and the training was just standing at attention and basking in the sun. The students who were exhausted from the training a few days ago and fell asleep immediately after returning finally had some energy to do some entertainment activities.

Han Lenian hesitated for a moment: "... Sorry, I don't play games."

This time, not only the roommate who was invited, but also the other two people in the dormitory turned their heads in unison, with expressions as if they were looking at some strange creature.
