As a laid-off reemployed worker, Yun Jian was accidentally swept into a real-life survival game when she had nowhere else to turn. She was also 'lucky' enough to acquire a special attribute...
Li Tao glanced at the crowd with disdain. "What? You're not convinced? Come and hit me if you're not convinced!"
A few impulsive individuals, seeing his provocation, immediately became enraged, exclaiming, "Fine! I've never heard of such a request before!"
A player stepped forward from the crowd.
Although I was still afraid when facing Li Tao, I couldn't bear to be toyed with by him, so I gritted my teeth and went for it.
They initially thought Li Tao was up to some trick, so they were all extra cautious.
Just as they were getting close to Li Tao, Li Tao, still acting like a madman, suddenly jumped up, turned his back to them, and then made a series of "poof" sounds.
Everyone: "..."
Since that's the case, then there's nothing to worry about.
Fists and weapons rained down one after another.
Seeing this, Xiao Wu quickly put his defensive gear on Li Tao and went over to mediate the fight.
He knew very well that with everyone's anger towards Li Tao, if Li Tao died, he, as Li Tao's trusted assistant and servant, would not have a good end either.
On the other side, Yun Jian temporarily released control over Li Tao and instead sent messages to Bai Yu and Lao Si.
"Hurry up and sneak in while things are in chaos, grab some perks and then we'll leave."
After thinking for a moment, she sent another message to Lü Ping, "Come over here, there's something good coming up."
Once Li Tao had been beaten to a pulp, Bai Yu and the others were in position, and Yun Jian continued to control Li Tao.
Everyone then saw Li Tao, who had been silent for quite some time, suddenly stand up and shove aside the players who were still trying to attack him, saying, "You think you're so great?"
His shout startled everyone.
Before they could react, Li Tao tossed his hands into the air, and countless small orbs of light fell from mid-air.
Several props also fell down at the same time.
As he tossed it, Li Tao shouted, "Thank you all for coming. This is a thank-you gift for everyone."
As soon as the ball of light appeared, everyone immediately bent down to pick it up. Bai Yu was particularly enthusiastic about picking it up, his movements were more skillful than a chick pecking at rice.
Xiao Wu felt like he was seeing a ghost, but there was nothing he could do. He could only try to collect more light orbs to reduce Li Tao's losses.
Seeing that the time was almost up, Yun completely released her control over Li Tao. However, she still felt unsatisfied, so she sent a message to Lao Si, "Can you use that skill? Connect Li Tao to any player, and then we'll retreat."
The fourth brother imagined the scene and couldn't help but shudder, yet he also found it extremely exciting.
Even now.
After quickly finishing the task, Yun Jian had Bai Yu and the other man cover them as they retreated from Li Tao's camp.
As soon as he came out, Bai Yu couldn't help but laugh. He looked at Yun Jian several times, then shook his head and sighed, "How did you come up with these dirty tricks? Now Li Tao's glorious deeds will be spread for who knows how long. If he's thin-skinned, he probably won't dare to show his face in public."
The fourth brother also felt extremely relieved, "Thank you, eldest brother, for getting revenge for me."
Yun Jian waved his hand and shook his head in denial: "I'm not doing this to avenge you. I already have a grudge against Li Tao. I'm just doing this for myself."
The fourth brother lowered his head, his expression unreadable.
Bai Yu was still laughing. "I wonder what Li Tao's reaction will be when he wakes up and finds out what happened today. He might even want to die. But with this, he has lost all his prestige, and he won't be able to expand his influence in the jungle anytime soon."
Yun Jian looked in the direction of Li Tao's camp and said, "Maybe he wants more than just to die; he also wants a man."
Bai Yu: "?"
The fourth brother weakly explained from the side, "Before leaving, the eldest brother asked me to play matchmaker for Li Tao."
Bai Yu was stunned for a moment, then laughed even harder than before, "What a talent! I'm so glad I didn't stand on the opposite side of you guys."
The fourth brother silently took out the light orb he had just picked up and presented it to Yun Jian with both hands, saying, "Boss, these are all the ones I just grabbed."
Bai Yu's gaze slowly fell on the fourth brother. Damn, who is this kid trying to impress?
Is this a competition for favor?
Noticing Yun Jian's gaze slowly drifting towards him, Bai Yu pursed his lips and slowly took out a portion of the light orbs he had just snatched. "Here, we'll split it 50/50, there's nothing more."
Yun Jian took the orb of light without any hesitation, and without even looking at what the fourth brother had taken out, he said directly, "Let's go back to the camp first."
Bai Yu's eyes widened in disbelief. He quickly jogged a few steps to catch up with Yun Jian and shouted indignantly, "Hey, why do you only want mine and not his? This is discrimination..."
At the camp.
Liang Song and his group are still building a house.
Yun Jian led the fourth brother over, saying, "This is the new guy. Liang Song, you show him the process and then he can get started."
Liang Song nodded, not asking where the fourth brother was from, and did whatever Yun Jian said.
Liang Shan, on the contrary, was a little dissatisfied. "We just recruited one, and now another one has come back. We don't have any extra rooms here. They only think about increasing manpower, but don't consider the capacity of the camp. They're only thinking about one thing and not the other!"
The fourth brother felt extremely embarrassed after hearing this.
He hurriedly told Yun Jian, "I can just set up a small shed next to it, it's fine."
Yun Jian pretended not to hear and looked at Liang Shan instead, "If there aren't any extra rooms, won't you build more? Can't you even figure out such a simple problem? Are you out of your mind?"
Upon hearing this tone, Liang Song immediately realized that something was wrong between the two.
He rushed over and advised, "The boss is right. The camp will have to expand sooner or later. With our technology, why would we worry about not having enough rooms? It'll just be a few more days of work."
Liang Shan snorted, "Doesn't it take a few more days of work to save time and energy? The key is that there's no profit to be made after it's built."
Liang Song couldn't stand it anymore. "Brother, what's wrong with you? Can you stop nitpicking?"
Liang Shan snorted and walked away, clearly not wanting to talk to him anymore.
Yun Jian took out all the meat she had stolen from Li Tao and threw it to Liang Song: "Make a plan, see which ones to make into jerky and which ones to save for now. Have you planted the vegetables yet? When you have time, build a fence to keep wild boars and rabbits away from damaging them."
Liang Song agreed to each one.
Seeing how obedient Liang Song was to Yun Jian, Liang Shan felt uncomfortable again and lost interest in building the house. So he simply opened the world channel.
As soon as I entered, I saw a small loudspeaker hanging in the center of the page; it was a bounty poster.
[Li Tao: Today, my Li Alliance's feast was disrupted. I, Li Tao, have been controlled by a villain and forced to do all sorts of absurd things. I hereby make a special promise: if any player can provide clues as to who is behind this, I will do anything I can for you!]
Liang Song's eyebrows twitched slightly when he read the last sentence.
