Chapter 210: Fierce
After hearing that they could take a break, several professional players immediately sat down and meditated.
One of them was so sleepy that he took out a bottle of water, unscrewed the lid, and splashed some water on his face.
After wiping his face, he sighed, "When will this fucking day end? I can't even close my eyes right now, for fear that a wild monster will appear the next moment."
The female professional gamer sitting next to him sipped her water silently. "Just hang in there. It's not far away anyway. We'll probably get there by noon tomorrow."
The complaining man didn't say anything, but turned his head to look at the ordinary residents huddled together not far away. They didn't want to be brought here, but he was forced to follow them.
Because they insist on following, there are a lot of wild monsters refreshed every day.
"Why don't these people listen to us and follow other professional teams? I told you that if more people follow, there will be more monsters."
The woman was silent. She was very tired and didn't even have the energy to blame others.
A young man was indignant. "It's because no one wants to take them. The ones we took were either acquaintances or paid a lot of money. But these people are so stubborn that they don't even give a penny but still follow us around, just hoping that the captain will do nothing to them."
Their captain is a man with a simple and honest personality. He was a good guy before the end of the world and usually has a good temper. In the early stage of the team, the rewards given were very balanced and based on personal contribution. Although he was simple and honest, he had his own way of dealing with things.
Because of this, many of them are willing to follow the captain.
As for the group of ordinary people, they knew the captain's temper and just followed him when they set out.
Even though the captain was good-tempered, he didn't look happy at that time and just treated these people coldly.
After a fifteen-minute break, the captain stood up and asked everyone to follow.
Even though they were exhausted, they had to hurry on. The shorter the time, the fewer wild monsters they would encounter. If they dragged their feet, they would only be greeted by batch after batch of wild monsters.
Maybe they were traveling fast enough, as they encountered a group of wild monsters two hours later.
But looking at the huge number of wild monsters, professional players feel tired just by looking at them.

The professional players fought with wild monsters, and the group of ordinary people who followed them ran silently to the protected ordinary residents.
These people glared at them and wanted to curse them, but were afraid of alerting the wild monsters.
With so many wild monsters, there will always be a few that will bypass the professional players and attack them.
At this time, young men and women stood up, picked up weapons and fought against the monsters.
One of the women was just an ordinary resident, but she was not afraid of these monsters at all. She picked up a machete and attacked the fox monster running towards her.
She was quite strong, and this attack knocked the wild monster aside, which was also because this type of wild monster was light in size.
Behind the woman stood her two younger siblings, both still young and with their parents gone, she had to step forward to protect them.
The group of ordinary people who were seeking protection didn't dare to deal with the wild monsters at all. When they saw a few wild monsters coming, a young man with dyed blue hair was frightened and screamed, attracting the angry glares of the professional players.
However, the person who was shouting had no awareness at all and jumped up to squeeze into the crowd, trying to get to the innermost part.
Someone had a bad temper. Even without a profession, he looked like someone who was not to be trifled with just holding a machete. He pushed the unruly young man hard and said, "You're pushing your ass out of here! Get out of my way!"
Starting with the hot-tempered man, other ordinary residents also reached out and pushed away ordinary people who approached them for protection.
Not only did these people fail to protect themselves, they also caused trouble for others.
The blue-haired man who was pushed away at the beginning was pushed to the side of the woman who was protecting her younger brother and sister. The woman was dealing with wild monsters. The blue-haired man got up in a panic and saw a wild monster jumping towards him.
I subconsciously grabbed a child and threw him forward, hoping that the wild monsters would attack the child first.
The little girl's face turned pale, "Sister!"
When the woman saw her sister suddenly being pushed out, she quickly attacked the monster with a machete. She took the opportunity to help her sister up, "Hurry up."
Although the girl was frightened, she still climbed up nimbly and did not cause trouble for her sister.
"Sister." The woman's brother ran over, grabbed his sister's hand, and brought her back to the crowd.
The woman looked at the blue-haired man with sharp eyes, but she didn't have time to teach him a lesson now. She had to deal with the wild monsters first.
The wild monsters they encountered were all brown iron level, which was much easier to deal with than bronze monsters.
The woman fought with the wild monster for a long time and drank a bottle of potion to replenish her energy and blood before she killed it.
For such a tough ordinary resident, everyone else is envious of her strength. They really wonder how powerful she would be if she could start a career.
It took more than half an hour to finally get rid of all the wild monsters. Everyone was sweating from dealing with the wild monsters.
After the woman dealt with the wild monster, she immediately turned around to look for the blue-haired man. He dared to push her sister out to block the wild monster. She was so angry that she had to chop him a few times.
The younger sister pulled her older sister's clothes and said, "Sister, the bad guy ran over there." The sister pointed in a direction.
The woman touched her sister's head and said, "Stand with your brother. I will teach the bad guys a lesson."
After saying that, she went to look for the blue-haired man with a knife in hand. However, because his hair color was too conspicuous, she saw him hiding in the crowd after a short while.
Seeing her holding a knife, the people around her made way unconsciously, and the woman rushed towards the blue-haired man with a fierce look.
The blue-haired man was scared to death and was pulled out of the crowd by the woman like a little chicken.
The young man was still scratching and shouting, "What are you doing? You're killing people!"
The people watching nearby did not dare to step forward.
The captain stepped out from the crowd and asked, "What's going on?"
Although he was unhappy with these ordinary people who were pestering them, he still had to come and see what was going on when he heard about the murder.
The woman let the man go, but the knife was still on his neck. "Just now, when I was dealing with a wild monster, this man pushed my sister in front of it. Luckily, I quickly blocked it with my hand, otherwise my sister would have been attacked by the wild monster."
Upon hearing this, the captain frowned deeply. He knew this woman. She was an ordinary resident, but she dared to pick up a knife and fight wild monsters to the death. Everyone in their team admired her. It was a pity that she didn't start her career.
"Push the kids out to fend off the monsters. Don't follow us. Leave now!"
After the captain said this, the group of ordinary people who wanted to take advantage of the protection became unhappy.
"That was his own doing, and he's the only one we should chase off."
"That's it, it's none of our business."
A team member standing next to the captain couldn't help but say, "You're just like him, the same old thing! Don't think we didn't see you dealing with wild monsters. You often pushed others to face wild monsters while you ran into the crowd!"
This resonated with the team, "That's right, all of you get out of here! Not only are you following us without contributing, you're also causing us trouble!"
The group of people who were protecting us were also angry. "Why are you trying so hard? We are just ordinary people. We are not like you who have super powers. What's wrong with protecting us?"
This made the ordinary residents who paid to join the team feel disgusted. "Bullshit, we are ordinary people too, but we paid the money and dealt with the monsters that came in ourselves. Don't give us a chance to do it in the dark, bah!"
