The next day, they finally encountered a battle.
It was a group of players fighting against a bunch of charred corpses.
Bai Yu rubbed his hands excitedly and winked at Yun Jianchao in the direction of the battle: "Should we go and join in?"
Yun Jian held a charged ball in one hand and a small pebble in the other, exclaiming, "Of course I want it!"
After saying that, she rushed out first.
I thought there would be a big battle, but when those charred corpses saw her appear, they immediately distanced themselves from the player and then quickly flapped their wings.
Yun Jian was all too familiar with this action of theirs.
This is the prelude to their plan to run away!
She quickly seized the opportunity to hook a charred carcass, and then slowly pulled the fishing line closer.
The other charred corpses flew away without looking back.
The charred corpse struggled desperately, but it couldn't fly away no matter what it did; instead, it got closer and closer to Yun Jian.
The expression on his face grew increasingly desperate.
Yun Jian smiled helplessly. Was she really that scary?
As he pulled the charred corpse close to him, Yun Jian threatened with an electric ball in one hand and a rope in the other, warning fiercely, "Let me tie you up and take you back, or else the electric ball will do the trick!"
After saying that, she asked Bai Yu and Xiao Zhen to come and help until the charred corpse was tied up like a mummy.
Charred Corpse: "..."
The other players looked at her fierce appearance and their expressions became complicated.
Good heavens, they fought tooth and nail against the charred corpses here, going to great lengths to avoid being injured by them, but as soon as Yun Jian arrived, they didn't even need to fight; the charred corpses ran away faster than rabbits when they saw her.
Sigh, when will they have that kind of strength?
That way, I won't have to worry about the threat of charred corpses. I'm so envious and jealous.
Faced with such a powerful player, they wisely chose to curry favor, saying, "Thank you for your help, Alliance Leader Yun. Otherwise, we would have suffered heavy losses today. We have no way to repay you. We only hope to stay by Alliance Leader Yun's side and do our part."
Bai Yu was so angry he laughed when he heard this.
Good heavens, this group's wishful thinking could be heard from a hundred meters away.
Yun Jian saved them, and they just casually thanked him and that was it. They even wanted to take the opportunity to get Yun Jian to take them in. To put it nicely, they wanted to join the Yun Alliance. To put it bluntly, they were treating Yun Jian as their bodyguard and meal ticket.
Moreover, upon closer inspection, these players all seemed to be incredibly cunning and shrewd.
Bai Yu was the first to reply on Yun Jian's behalf: "We accept your thanks, but there's no need for you to stay by Yun Jian's side, is there? Our Yun Alliance doesn't need any more people right now."
Those people were slightly displeased when they heard him say that, but they didn't say anything in rebuttal.
She still looked at Yun Jian with hope.
In their eyes, Yun Jian is the one who makes decisions here, and Bai Yu is just her subordinate. For Bai Yu to take Yun Jian's place is already an overstepping of his authority.
"As everyone knows, Alliance Leader Yun is kind-hearted. We were really driven to desperation by these charred corpses. We've run out of points and our items are almost all destroyed. We hope that Alliance Leader Yun will take us in, considering that we fought against the charred corpses together. Otherwise, there might be a few more charred corpses here tomorrow."
Yun found it amusing to hear this.
"I'm kind-hearted? You must have some misunderstanding about me."
Upon hearing this, the group felt a chill run down their spines. Don't people like to hear compliments? Why did it feel like they'd hit a brick wall with their flattery?
Before he could even calm down, Yun Jian said, "You're telling me to make conversation because we fought against the charred corpses together? In this game, who who survived didn't fight against the charred corpses? If you didn't survive, that's because you're not capable. Why should I care about people who aren't capable?"
The group of people were taken aback.
I never expected her to say that.
What was originally meant to be a pity speech was used by her as a weapon to reject them.
One of them retorted loudly, "So many people died in the game, does that mean they were all incompetent? How can you, a woman, speak so rudely?"
Yun lowered her eyes slightly and replied, "Yes, he's just incompetent."
The man caught his breath, then stubbornly retorted, "Some people are just unlucky."
"Luck is also a form of strength."
Seeing that these people were clearly unhappy, with their expressions constantly changing, yet they were still racking their brains to persuade her to take them in, Yun felt a surge of annoyance.
She took the rope in her hand, let the charred corpse walk in front of her, and turned to leave.
Bai Yu and the others followed behind her.
Mu Yuan looked like he wanted to say something but hesitated. Bai Yu glanced at him and directly told him what was on his mind.
"Are you trying to say, why not take those people in? There's strength in numbers, and one more person means a better chance of dealing with the charred corpses?"
Mu Yuan looked at Bai Yu in surprise.
"They're all old foxes who've survived this long. They all have their own tricks up their sleeves. If you take them in, they might stab you in the back tomorrow. Just browse the public chat a bit and you'll see what they're really like..."
Bai Yu was speaking eloquently when Mu Yuan suddenly said, "No, I'm wondering why they act so self-righteous when they're asking for favors."
Bai Yu was taken aback, then shook his head. "Because they never truly admired Yun Jian; they only treated Yun Jian as a pawn to be used."
Mu Yuan nodded. "I understand."
For the rest of the journey, Yun and his companions still did not encounter any charred corpses.
The journey back to camp was exceptionally smooth. Yun Jian even mocked the charred mummy, saying, "Looks like you're not popular with people, or rather, not popular with corpses. I tied you up the whole way, and not a single charred corpse came to rescue you. Don't you usually go out in groups?"
The charred corpse gave Yun Jian a mournful look, then let out a series of howls. Yun Jian used the beast language ring, but couldn't understand what it was saying.
"Communication is still a big problem!"
We'll have to go back and think of another solution.
When the group returned to the camp, Liang Song came out to greet them. When he saw that Yun Jian had brought back a charred corpse, his expression immediately changed.
Bai Yu chuckled and said, "What's there to be afraid of? These charred corpses are for research, like guinea pigs. How can we completely eliminate them without figuring out their strengths and weaknesses?"
Liang Song's expression softened somewhat, but he still had some reservations when he looked at the charred corpse.
"With so many people in the camp, what if something happens to this charred corpse...? Besides, having a charred corpse in the camp will make everyone a little scared."
He was afraid it would affect some of the more timid members of the camp.
Yun Jian, however, immediately turned cold and said, "There are charred corpses flying everywhere outside, and there are still people in our camp who are afraid of charred corpses? Aren't they utterly useless?"
Liang Song immediately lowered his head, "What the boss says is right."
Ignoring the stares of others, Yun asked Liang Song, "How's the explosives development going? Any results?"
Liang Song nodded, "Yes, I've already put some in the conference room. If the boss needs them, he can just go up there."
Yun Jian nodded and urged the charred corpse upstairs.
