Chapter 122: Not Listening to Teammates
Li Aoting: Those flying geese are very fast. They just left Xuantian City today and will probably reach your location in a few hours. It's best to tell your professional players not to stray too far from the city-state, otherwise they won't be able to get back. We were able to return in time thanks to the city lord's reminder, otherwise, more people would probably have died.
When He Ange saw this email, he compared it with the email Yao Bingan sent him. The content was similar. He didn't think these two people would scare him. After all, after they talked about this in Qiuyu City, they saw those wild monsters in Jinjiang District, Yangshan City today.
[He Ange: How did the Lord of Xuantian City discover the wild monsters in advance? Did they release a detection item?]
Li Aoting smiled. What was this guy thinking about? He was even checking the props.
Li Aoting: We don't have such a tool. We speculate that the city lord was also out in the wild at the time, running quite far away, so he saw the flying geese first and then alerted us.
He Ange was helpless, but he also wanted to collect more tempering fruits. He had a pink cloud and had won a flying gem in a lottery, so it was very convenient for him to collect the fruits, but it was not so easy for the other people in the team.
In Longjiao City, ordinary residents were still hiding in their rooms, but they could also see the conversation channel. After learning that a large number of wild monsters were approaching, they were a little worried that the city would be attacked.
In the midst of anxiety, the flying geese from Jinjiang District arrived in Jinghe District, and another melee was about to begin.
Some people in the city-states in Jinghe District were quite greedy. After Mi Qingyi told them about the existence of the Tempering Fruit, they all ran out of the city to pick the fruit. There were so many people picking the fruit that they had to expand the picking range.
After seeing that Jinjiang District seemed to be under siege by flying geese, they became even more anxious and wanted to seize the remaining time to pick more fruits as soon as possible.
But he forgot that he still needed time to rush back to the city-state.
The Longjiao City Lord's team was climbing trees and picking fruits in the wild. One of the men, who looked very thin, saw someone in Jinjiang District saying that Feixuyan had left. Considering the time it took those wild monsters to reach Yangshan City from Qiuyu City, he became very worried.
"Captain, why don't we go back first? Someone in Jinjiang District said the monsters have left."
The wild monsters left, and their Jinghe District was one of the next targets. He felt it was very dangerous to stay in the wild far away from the city-state.
But the others were clearly dazzled by the free-picking Refining Fruits. The deputy captain was the first to curse, "Coward! There's more than just Jinghe District near Jinjiang District. Picking them will take another hour."
The thin man stood under the tree without saying a word, but others followed the captain in condemning him.
"Why are you so scared? These are all good things. Winter is coming soon. If you don't pick them now, you won't have the chance later. Who knows if these tempering fruits will only be produced once a year or every few years?"
"That's right. If you're afraid of death, then go back. But you don't have to follow us after you go back."
The thin guy has always been unwelcome in the team. Now he said he wanted to go back. Everyone else was very angry, wondering why he was so cowardly.
[Mi Qingyi (this is false information)] (Channel of the same province): Residents of other districts and cities in Yangshan City had better go back. The flying geese are very fast and will probably reach you soon.
Lu Jiu, who was still in Xuantian City, sent this message out of good intentions. If she hadn't been lucky enough to see it before, Xuantian City might have suffered losses, but people in other city-states might not have this luck.
When the thin man saw this reminder, he didn't say anything, but got on his bike and ran away without hesitation.
The last time he went to Xuantian City, he went with the city lord. At that time, he used all his savings to buy this bicycle, mainly for the purpose of escaping quickly.
His behavior caused other teammates who saw him to start cursing: "Damn, this coward really ran away!"
The deputy captain frowned and said, "Don't worry about him. When we get back, tell the city lord to kick him out of the team."
Although the other teammates were angry, they had to continue with the task at hand.
But seeing that man running away like that, I felt a strange feeling in my heart, a vague uneasiness after the contempt and scolding.
They continued to pick fruits, most of which belonged to them, and they only had to hand over 100 fruits to the city lord.
They have always bought cheaper equipment and props from the city lord, and will give the city lord some resources accordingly.
The thin man who just ran away was pedaling hard. He believed in his intuition. Before the end of the world, he relied on this intuition to survive twice.
What he didn't know was that Feixuyan had already arrived in Jinghe District.
Ten minutes later, the members of the city lord's team who were still picking fruits in the giant forest looked at their harvest and felt that it was a good thing that they continued. If they had gone back just now, they would have lost hundreds of tempering fruits.
The deputy city lord quickly put the thin man's escape behind him. The resources in front of him were the most practical.
After a while, one of the team members heard a strange noise when he came out. For some reason, his heart tightened and he felt something was wrong.
"Hey, did you hear anything?" he asked the team member closest to him.
At this time, the others were still in the tree canopy and no one cared about what he said.
The team member did not dare to act rashly for a moment, but stopped on the tree and continued to listen carefully.
Soon another team member came out of the tree canopy and saw him squatting on a branch in a daze. "What are you doing? Go pick some more fruits from other trees."
But the team member ignored him, then stood up with a serious expression, "No, it seems like the flock of flying geese is coming!"
The man was startled by his sudden rise and words, "You've also been influenced by that coward? There's no such thing as a flying goose."
How could they not see such a large group of wild monsters coming?
I'm not blind.
But the reality slapped him in the face. Now even he could hear the sound of flapping wings, and it was getting louder and louder.
The team member who discovered something was wrong had already slid down the tree, quickly took out his bicycle and ran away without even calling others to run with him.
"Stop picking them, the flying geese are coming!" The teammates who heard the noise later shouted loudly.
His shout drew the attention of others to the situation.
As soon as they came out of the treetops, they heard the noise. No one said anything and they quickly got down from the tree and ran away.
Some of them were riding bicycles with other teammates, but at this moment everyone was concerned about their own lives and did not care that the teammates without bicycles had not yet gotten on the bike.
"Wait for us, we don't have a car!"
"I'll be right down, where are you guys?"
They usually pick fruits separately, but even though they are close, some teammates don't want to wait and just ride away on their bikes.
The thin man who had escaped earlier had already returned to the city-state. He breathed a sigh of relief after entering the city-state.
Then someone nearby muttered, "What are those? Flying geese?"
The thin man stiffened his body and slowly turned his head, and saw the strange object that other residents were talking about, which was the flying goose.
It really came! However, it was still some distance away from them. They could only see a black mass getting closer and closer to Longjiao City.
The thin man's heart skipped a beat. The deputy captain and the others hadn't returned yet. Could they have encountered those flying geese?
"Hey, it's getting closer, it must be the flying geese, hurry up and call the people outside back!"
"My mother is still gathering food."
In this way, everyone hurriedly called back the ordinary residents who were nearby and still collecting food.
