Chapter 50 Chapter 50 Common Enemy

She needed to check the mental state of these disturbed sentinels.

The sentries near the pond, after drying their bodies, lined up and got to the car one by one. She was waiting.

Little Mushroom took two sips of Coke and started working again.

In the past, the sentries would have pretended nothing had happened, after all, there was no point in worrying.

They couldn't do anything about it, but now they had a guide, and things were different from before, and they no longer had to worry.

The first person she met was Xiao Han, the loyal sentinel who was also the most affected.

He rolled on the surface of the water, until the splashes became less and less, in order to save her.

The two of them sat opposite each other. The man bent his knees stiffly and tucked his legs to the side of the seat. She noticed something was wrong. "What's wrong with your feet?"

"It's cramped."

The stench was still lingering around Xiao Han's nose. When he woke up from the hallucination, he couldn't help retching. Looking into the water again, there was no guide crying for help, only a monster who wanted to drown him.

The man's tone was a little nervous.

Xiao Han: "I'm sorry, it's all my incompetence that put you in danger. Please punish me."

He lowered his head, looking very uneasy, as if he had done something terrible wrong, and didn't dare look her in the eye. Xu Shanshan couldn't bear to see him like this, so she grabbed the man's shoulders and used her fingers to force him to look at her.

"Don't say that about yourself."

Xu Shanshan: "I didn't protect you well."

How could it be? The guide's words were shocking. He stared in astonishment. How could he let her protect him... Why?

Obviously her attack power is weaker.

"If it was a physical attack, you're stronger and I should have hidden behind you, but it uses mental pollution to make you hallucinate, which is within my ability."

Xu Shanshan: "I should be watching you, so that even if you lose control, I can detect it immediately and bring you back."

"So, I am also responsible for what happened to you. I'm sorry."

The guide bowed his head and admitted his mistake. Xiao Han never thought that this was possible. He wanted to refute him, but he felt a secret joy in his heart.

"You did a great job getting us out of the water."

His tone was firm, his hands hanging on his knees. He tried to lift them up to touch her, but stopped, clenched them into fists, and raised the corners of his mouth.

Xiao Han: "Thank you for joining the team. It's our great honor."

A teardrop fell onto the surface of her trousers, bounced into the air and splashed. The woman stretched out her right hand, wiped the tears from her face, and her face wrinkled.

Xu Shanshan: "I'm sorry, I didn't protect you well."

Xiao Han didn't know who she felt guilty and regretful about. She wasn't looking at him. Between tissue and a hug, he chose the latter.

The two bodies snuggled tightly together, their emotions were accepted, warm liquid seeped through the fabric on their backs to the surface of their skin, and a pair of hands hugged him tightly, using force, as if they were afraid that he would disappear.

Who is she crying for?

Xiao Han doesn't know her past, a guide who has lost her memory and comes from an unknown place, but no matter what her past is, they will accept it.

So there is no need to be sad about the past, they will stand with her.

Xu Shanshan vented her emotions and cried for a while before she found it funny. She wiped away her tears and chuckled at the young face. The man also smiled.

He was obviously the frightened one, why was she crying?

Xu Shanshan couldn't understand it, maybe it was her own protective instinct that was at work. Fortunately, the two of them were in the car, and no one outside knew what was happening. She calmed herself down and let Little Mushroom start to act.

Familiar white light, she touched the ribbon-like mental power, all the way to the other person's forehead, but she could not see what was in the man's mind. She tried to close her eyes, but the end of the white ribbon was a ball of wool, and she could not get in.

Xu Shanshan felt a little lost, stepped aside and stared blankly, but she quickly composed herself. One day, she would be able to enter the other person's mental picture.

The dense tentacles explored every place, dissolving the lumps hidden in holes, branches, and nests. The white mycelium weaved into a dense blanket, washing the whole body of the bird hiding in it clean.

Xiao Han leaned on her, sweat on his forehead, his hands unable to hold on, exhausted. She called out to stop Xiao Mushroom, but he uttered a word lightly, "Ah."

She didn't hear the man's last words clearly, but just endured it and filled her mouth with her tongue, letting out a slight gasp.

The little mushroom was very grateful to this loyal sentinel and decided to protect him. He not only helped him deal with the pollution in the corners, but also left spores in his brain.

It had only done this twice before, and after being scolded by its owner the last time, it stopped. But he was different. It looked at the guy who was wrapped like a mummy but did not resist at all, and thought to itself, this is a good bird.

Besides Xiao Han, there were other sentries who went into the water, including Song Xiaoyu, although he did not go in the water. After checking them one by one, she rested assuredly.

She yawned sleepily and saw Xia Guangli standing by the door. "What's going on?"

He asked her if she wanted a human to sleep with her at night or a spirit, and she chose the latter.

Sleep till dawn.

The next morning, they went to check the pond, and she smelled the strange smell again, and determined that it was still there. Without being confused, they had many weapons and successfully eliminated it.

For the Sentinels, this kind of mental pollution is always more dangerous than physical attack.

After the revenge was over, the group drove to their next destination. They still had to observe their surroundings on the way to avoid being ambushed.

Outside the screen, Shan Hao was sitting backstage and witnessed the whole process.

Manuel got off work and came out of the underground prison. He opened the locked live broadcast room and learned relevant information based on comments, notifications, and rankings.

People outside the tower knew very little, so Lian Luoyi and the others had to wait until their family members won the exercise or failed and withdrew, and then they would meet them in person.

Shan Hao noticed that they took turns getting into the car at night, and the next day, they got along more naturally, with a tacit understanding and trust in each other. This was a good thing, but he couldn't be happy.

Manuel was happy for her when he saw her ranking high, but on the other hand he felt a little lost, seeing his own face in the rearview mirror. Young guys, the future belongs to them.

He looked at another live broadcast room, the team he used to be in, the Canine Team.

Groups of puppies gathered around a white Samoyed on the grassland. It seemed that they had just experienced a fierce battle. A hole was torn in its abdomen, its skin was pierced, and its internal organs were exposed. It cried miserably.

Like a newborn puppy calling for its mother, it quickly disappeared to the ground, which represented the "death" of the sentinel. The rest of the people needed to accept this reality and move on.

Another team wandering the grasslands was the Cats, stationed at the safety line. Any other team had to either take a detour or stay here.

A cheetah was panting in the heat in the shade. It saw a shabby group approaching. There were only a few people in it. It clearly saw Falk, but still came here.

Their team was so intimidating that the other side didn't even avoid them.

Ares stood up, climbed to a high place, took out a telescope and looked out. It was not the person he was waiting for. He was about to order an attack, but a piece of cloth held high caught his eye. They wanted to cooperate.

What kind of qualified team is it to cooperate with them?

But the pattern on the cloth made him a little concerned. Deputy Captain Shao Jiang also saw it, and he gestured to signal a pause.

The intruder was pointed at with weapons, surrounded by spirits, and was unarmed.

Three people, remnants of a defeated army, their clothes were torn and covered with blood, their cheeks were thin, their limbs were weak, and they fled in a very embarrassing way.

Even if today, it was not them but another team guarding here, it would be difficult for these people to get through.

Cooperation requires bargaining chips.

The Cat Team doesn't care about their ability to attract pollutants and set traps. They prefer to kill other teams rather than kill pollutants.

That would be too slow. These people's individual combat capabilities are simply a drag when working with them.

But they made an offer Ares couldn't refuse, a message, and were available for dispatch, since they had a common enemy.

When Shao Jiang heard him say that name, he was shocked and looked at Ares. He withdrew his gaze and looked down at the ground. The anger in his heart was visible from the rubbing of the soles of his shoes.

He hated those bird people.

But this needs to be discussed with others. After all, when there are soft persimmons, no one wants to touch the hard ones, which will end up hurting both sides.

But these three victims were determined to fight back, launching a sneak attack before dawn, with eagles circling high in the sky, ready to crush every bone in their path.

They had been targeted and had luckily escaped, but if they met again, it would be difficult to escape. Since there was a chance, it would be better to grab the opponent's handle and take the opportunity to get rid of him.

Incentives, deception, flattery, intimidation, and every other trick they could muster. The air combat team's route was easy to predict, but it depended on their willingness to cooperate.

Shao Jiang thought it was worth a try.

It is not difficult to convince everyone, because this is also their demand. The arrival of the guide can make the sentinels who are fighting on their own closely united and greatly encourage them spiritually.

It was easy to convince her. Even Falk, who usually prattled on about the guide, pricked up his ears when he heard she was coming and stammered, "Really?"

This is a good opportunity to show our strength. At least, look over here, they are not bad either.

Ares spread out the map, and the others walked forward, circled a location on the map with their fingers.

"Just wait for them here."
