Everyone has boarded the bus.
Cheng Bin's body was left in a pool of blood beside the car.
Ning Fan sat in the car, feeling a little uneasy for a moment.
This was the first time he had killed someone in his life.
Yes.
Cheng Bin, he was the one who murdered him.
Lin Chuan gave him this opportunity.
Even though Ning Fan knew that he would experience this kind of thing sooner or later if he embarked on the path of a traveler, he did not expect it to come so quickly and so suddenly.
My stomach was churning, and I felt the dog meat in my stomach was constantly restless.
The sour, astringent and smelly taste kept rising up from the throat.
Even though he was in a bad state, no one would comfort him.
There was not even anyone to help him straighten his back.
Since you have chosen to be a traveler, don't expect anyone to treat you like a child.
Lin Chuan's brows were tightly furrowed.
After driving for about an hour, he finally spoke to break the silence in the car.
"Is the Ghost Mist Forest ahead?"
"Yes, less than ten kilometers."
Huizi said lightly.
"Turn right and go to the cave where we had a barbecue last time to rest."
"Okay."
Huizi drove the car to a cave and stopped.
Ning Fan saw some traces of burnt charcoal still remaining in the cave.
As Lin Chuan said, they are too familiar with this road.
Even during the last mission, they were able to leisurely find a cave and hold a barbecue dinner.
Everyone got out of the car and entered the cave. The man named Dazhuang found some wood and lit a bonfire.
But this time they were not here for a barbecue.
"We're being targeted."
Lin Chuan stretched out his hands to warm himself by the fire, his gaze fixed on the flames thoughtfully. "If I'm not mistaken, the people from [War Bear] are already waiting for us in the Ghost Mist Forest."
No one spoke, but no one showed much panic either.
"There are two options. First, we change our route and go through the Snake Cave to bypass the Ghost Mist Forest."
"Second, kill them."
Lin Chuan raised his head, the flames burning his gloomy face red. "Seven of us vote, majority rule. I'll make my statement first. Go get him!"
"Kill them!"
"kill."
"I don't think there's any need to get angry. It's not like we've been to snake caves before."
“Safety first.”
"We don't understand the War Bear, and a head-on confrontation could lead to uncontrollable risks."
Of the six people, three voted in favor of a head-on confrontation and three voted in favor of a detour.
This result surprised Ning Fan.
I thought that since Lin Chuan had already expressed his position first, everyone would respect the captain's face a little.
But Huizi, Qiao Fei, and that honest-looking Dazhuang actually voted against it.
More importantly, the crucial vote now fell into the hands of newcomer Ning Fan.
Everyone turned their eyes to him, waiting for his decision.
Although Ning Fan was a little uncomfortable, he still said calmly: "Brother Chuan, before voting, I would like to ask a few questions."
"Ask."
Lin Chuan nodded.
"What exactly is a spirit servant?"
Ning Fan held it in for a long time.
Whether or not a traveler can use a spirit servant makes a huge difference to him.
He needs to know how to obtain a spirit servant!
It seemed that he had expected Ning Fan to ask this question, but Lin Chuan did not answer directly.
"Remember what you saw when we just walked out of the inner area?"
Of course Ning Fan remembered.
How could I forget that scene?
There are corpses and starving people everywhere!
The ground was covered with dried brown bloodstains.
"In the wild, there are countless dead souls."
Lin Chuan said quietly, "After a long period of accumulation, these dead souls will become spirits."
"Spirit has no consciousness, no thoughts, but it can feel the pain before death!"
"A spirit is the product of the gathering of dead souls. The pain of one person before death might be bearable, but what if many dead souls gather together?"
"So, the spirits need to be liberated! And the way they are liberated is by attaching themselves to our weapons."
"We give them a place to stay with our weapons, and they lend us their strength."
Lin Chuan raised his knife: "This knife of mine contains the spirit of six dead souls gathered together. It is called the Butcher."
"Six dead souls gathered together?"
At first glance, Ning Fan felt that six souls were already a lot.
"Don't be so surprised. Think about it, what's the most abundant thing in the wild? It's not those weird plants or bloodthirsty beasts, but the souls of the dead!"
Lin Chuan pointed at Qiao Fei and said, "Qiao Fei's spirit servant is a collection of seventeen dead souls. She is also the only one among us who possesses a [Ten Soul Level] spirit servant."
Ning Fan suddenly looked at Qiao Fei and found that she was wiping her Tang sword with her head down.
Inside that Tang sword...
Hidden inside is a spirit formed by the gathering of seventeen dead souls!
"So, if you don't have your weapon with you, you can't use your spirit servant?"
Ning Fan didn't have time to sigh.
"That's not the case. The original spirits were only attached to weapons. That's why I just said that we are borrowing power from the spirits."
Lin Chuan said: "However, once you develop a sufficient understanding with the Spirit Servant, the weapon will only serve as a medium! Even if you change weapons, you can still use the Spirit Servant."
Ning Fan probably understood.
"Then how can we obtain a spirit servant?"
"I can't answer this question for you."
Lin Chuan smiled and said, "There's a popular saying in the circle of travelers: when the opportunity comes, a spirit will naturally come to find you."
Ning Fan was a little disappointed with this answer.
Has the opportunity arrived?
This is too metaphysical!
"Could it be related to mental power?"
Ning Fan asked without giving up, "For example, when you are on the verge of death, you are more likely to feel the presence of spirits?"
"You're overthinking it."
Huizi pointed to the three scratches on his neck and said, "The first time I went on a mission, I almost died outside and didn't get a spirit servant. But the third time I went out, I was walking and suddenly a spirit came to find me!"
It really depends on chance!
"Boy, don't be anxious. As long as you can survive in the wild, sooner or later you will have a spirit servant."
Lin Chuan patted his shoulder and said, "Vote first. Everyone is waiting for your decision."
Ning Fan withdrew his urgent desire to obtain the spiritual servant and began to seriously consider how to vote.
He knew that his decision would affect the fate of the entire team.
Ning Fan thought for half a minute but still didn't give an answer.
"Brother Chuan, to be honest, I think... your thinking is wrong."
The six people looked at Ning Fan at the same time.
This kid just scolded Brother Chuan, and now he is questioning Brother Chuan...
"Boy, you want to usurp the throne?"
Huizi raised his eyebrows.
However, this time Lin Chuan did not show any dissatisfaction, but tilted his head with interest.
"Top student, tell me what you think?"
