Seeing the man in a dilemma, Jin Mo silently took away his hand that was pressing on the barrel of the bipolar disorder gun.
The gun barrel was raised again, and the black muzzle was pointed at the man opposite.
"I promise."
It seems that the other party is also aware of the current situation.
The group began to move towards the southwest. Jinmo and the human from the settlement walked in the front, about one meter away from the other teammates.
Even if this man really has a problem, she can kill him with one blow while preventing her ability from affecting her companions.
The others followed behind the two men and kept silent vigilance. The beast herd released his four wolf-shaped monsters. Feng Yu kept capturing all the information around from the air, and the muzzle of the manic-depressive gun was always pointed at the man.
As for Mercury, he was literally just walking.
"Can you tell me about the Swamp Settlement? I want to know something about you. Of course, if you can tell me something, I can tell you. If you can't tell me anything, forget it."
Jin Mo, who was walking in the front, had an unusually gentle tone. Even his teammates had never seen such a captain.
"What do you want to know? I can tell you something."
"Okay, I want to know when your settlement was founded? How does it sustain its operations? What methods do you use to protect the safety of your members?"
Jin Mo asked three questions in a row. Seeing that the man next to him didn't know how to start, he repeated the first question.
"Ah, you mean the time? I remember the swamp settlement was formed about twenty years ago. I was still very young at that time. It happened that our original shelter was breached, so we had no choice but to come here to seek refuge with these outsiders."
"Outsider?"
"Yes, they claimed to be from a place called Hope City. They are smart and good at fighting, so we quickly recognized them as our leaders."
Jin Mo nodded and said:
"Where was your original shelter?"
“In the city of Agar… yes, it’s here, I almost forgot its name.
“Our shelter was breached by strange beasts 20 years ago. We escaped through the hidden passage, but found that the outside was completely different from what we imagined. We could only run away aimlessly.
"Anyway, it's further south. I don't know exactly how far it is. It would take about five days if we just rely on our own legs. That's how we ran here. Apart from eating and sleeping, we just ran, kept running..."
Jin Mo silently memorized this information, and at the same time he was constantly searching his mind, trying to find some familiar information or unreasonable traces.
But unfortunately, neither the shelter nor the city of Agar had ever been mentioned in her life.
"So what do you usually eat?"
"We eat things that grow out of the ground. A few years ago, when there were still one or two old people in the swamp settlement, they could still identify what those things were called, but now they are dead. I don't know any of them. I just know which ones are delicious."
"Anything else?"
“Yes, when food was not sufficient, we would start to go out to collect food from the surrounding areas. It was very dangerous and many people never came back after going there.
“I thought I was going to die…”
"Keep talking. You'll be fine as long as we're here."
"Okay, okay, we usually eat these, and sometimes we can eat strange meat..."
“Strange meat?”
The man's eyes flickered towards the herd of animals behind him:
"Like the ones around him."
"You eat exotic animals?!"
The manic-depressive patient was obviously shocked by the other person's words. While he was surprised, he began to observe whether there were strange gray lines on the other person's body surface, and whether there were obvious floccules in his eyes...
"He's fine."
Jin Mo, who had been prepared for a long time, said:
"He showed no symptoms of an infected person."
Manic-Depressive let out a long sigh, and the team continued forward and began to listen to the man's narration:
"I know what exotic animals are. We don't eat them, and if we do, we eat processed ones."
"Handled?"
As the captain of a super-powered team ranked within the top ten, Jinmo undoubtedly knew the main ingredients of Hope City's nutritional paste.
She knew that after going through multiple processes, the nutrient paste must be tested once more by the power of the Holy Shield before it could truly kill the mycelium, but the man in front of her and his settlement did not seem to have this ability.
“Yes, those chiefs have special methods of processing, and they can only eat it after they have processed it.
“But they don’t teach us…”
Jin Mo's brows furrowed slightly, and she could feel a strong dissatisfaction in the tone of the man beside her.
He seemed very dissatisfied with the different treatment of the leaders, that is, the people from Hope City...
This may be a point that needs attention.
Jin Mo thought about it and did not interrupt the other party, and the ragged and unkempt man seemed to open up and began to complain intermittently.
Seeing this scene, Feng Yu behind quietly approached the man with bipolar disorder:
"Can you use your ability like this?"
"uh-huh?"
Bipolar disorder gave a noncommittal answer, apparently agreeing with the other party's statement.
Her ability is very interesting. Making the target irritable or depressed for a short period of time is just the simplest and most basic application.
In fact, by regulating the body hormones of intelligent creatures, bipolar disorder can even make people change their emotions unconsciously, and generate or eliminate some desires. However, such delicate operations take time, and Jinmo has already set the stage for her.
At this time, the man in front of him had a desire to share and talk that had slowly increased over the past hour. Even he himself didn't know why he wanted to say these things so much, but he always felt that he would feel much better after saying them out.
"Did you also get Mercury to reveal so many secrets in the last party?"
Fengyu suddenly thought of something that happened a long time ago, and asked about bipolar disorder in Xiang's ear.
"Don't ask, I don't know, I haven't heard of it."
The super-powered man's expression suddenly turned serious, and then he looked to the other side as if nothing had happened.
It has to be said that the members of the swamp settlement really need to come from far away to collect things.
After noon, everyone finally saw what seemed to be a settlement in the distance.
At this time, nearly three hours had passed since they set out from their temporary camp last night.
This meant that the man next to them had already started his day's collecting work at daybreak or even earlier. No wonder this man looked like he was about to die even without being pointed at by a gun.
As the settlement got closer, more humans appeared on the road ahead of Jinmo and others. They soon learned that outsiders had arrived and hurried back to the settlement to report the news.
After a while, there seemed to be a small group of people rushing towards this side not far away. Finally, Jinmo saw people waiting for him at the gate of the swamp settlement.
The gentle middle-aged man wearing glasses held out his hand to her:
"Hello, I'm the person in charge here, my name is Zhang Tong."
