Xu Anran's face was frosty, her eyes revealing a hint of ruthlessness as she coldly questioned, "Tell me the truth! Did you intentionally harm your teammates? Don't think I don't know that someone like you couldn't have only had one or two teammates before. So what about the others? What happened to them? If you dare to lie to me, I'll kill you right now!"
Hearing these harsh words, large beads of sweat rolled down the man's forehead. At first, he tried to appear calm, gritting his teeth as he retorted, "I really didn't! I swear to God, this is only the second world I've experienced. Since entering this world, I've only encountered two passengers, and we formed a group to travel together. However, the endings for both of them seem to be less than satisfactory..."
As he spoke, his voice grew softer and softer, as if even he himself felt a lack of confidence.
At the same time, Luo Xi, who had been silent all along, finally spoke up: "You had better explain things clearly. Otherwise, we have plenty of ways to slowly deal with you, and we guarantee you'll wish you were dead."
Seeing this situation, the man knew he had no other choice but to slowly open his mouth and tell the whole story about his condition.
His name is He Fei, and he is a professional illustrator. He usually stays at home and draws.
Unexpectedly, one day, a torrential downpour began in his world without warning. The rain was so intense that it was astonishing; within just a few days, the water level rose to the height of an eight-story building.
Fortunately, his home was on the top floor, and because he didn't like going out, he had stocked up on a lot of food. It was because of this that he was able to get through that period unharmed.
Then, just as he was running out of food and about to exhaust all his reserves, he unexpectedly found a train ticket.
With this ticket, he successfully left that world.
When he arrived at the place by vehicle, he had not made any adequate preparations beforehand. He could only find odd jobs here and there, while trying to stockpile various living supplies.
One day, on his way to investigate a meteorite, he met two girls who were his teammates from his first time teaming up.
This was their second world. They planned to rent a house together. Unexpectedly, when they went to the agreed location as planned, the two girls were tragically struck by a meteorite and died instantly.
Shortly afterward, enormous, hideous insects burst out of the mysterious meteorite!
These terrifying creatures seemed to come from the depths of hell, and their appearance plunged the entire world into chaos and panic.
At this time, he was hiding with another person in a simple rented room.
A terrifying insect flew to the outside of the house where they were hiding, and with its incredibly sharp claws, easily hooked the man out of the window, then mercilessly swallowed him whole.
At that moment, he was lying in bed, frozen with fear, too terrified to move an inch. Fortunately, after the insect had its fill, it quickly flew away, and he escaped death once again.
After calming down a bit, he slowly got out of bed and found two train tickets.
Immediately afterward, he decided to leave. On the way, he heard about a government-established safe base and decided to head there immediately for refuge.
Along the way, despite constantly encountering various perilous situations, Lady Luck always favored him. He was able to cleverly avoid those vicious insects each time, and even unexpectedly found many train tickets.
Next came the scene of meeting those two teammates yesterday, and the encounter with Xu Anran and the others.
After hearing his account of his experience, Xu Anran couldn't help but feel a sense of fear.
She felt that this person possessed some mystical qualities:
Anyone who gets close to him usually encounters misfortune; but he alone manages to escape danger time and time again.
Such people are absolutely terrifying!
Thinking of this, Xu Anran couldn't help but shiver, a chill instantly penetrating her entire body.
Just then, they happened to spot two cars approaching from the front, and Xu Anran and the others quickly found a place to hide.
They saw a group of about four or five men get off the car and lead two women into a shop ahead with ropes.
Xu Anran turned to He Fei beside her and said softly, "We've already rescued you from the bug, and you've given us your ticket, so we're done. You can go ahead and find those people and ask if you can come with us."
However, He Fei looked troubled and extremely unwilling. He muttered to himself, "I've finally met such a powerful figure; only now do I feel a little at ease. Maybe this big shot can really help me get rid of the misfortune that's been plaguing me all this time!"
Looking back at that group of people, he felt they weren't a good match. What if he went with them and ended up losing his life? Thinking of this, He Fei shook his head, unwilling to leave.
Seeing the obvious reluctance on He Fei's face, Luo Xi's lips curled up slightly, revealing a faint smile, and he said softly, "I have an idea, listen to it. He Fei, go ahead and ask those people if you can go together. If you can, you can team up with them ahead, and we'll follow behind, keep in touch, and rescue you if you encounter any danger."
“I think you have no other choice but to make this suggestion.” She then looked at He Fei.
Xu Anran continued, "That's right, you go ahead and stay with that group of people. We can keep in touch, so you don't need to worry about us abandoning you. After all, your life is in our hands now, and you don't have any better options."
He Fei asked, "Aren't you worried that I'll tell those people about you following behind us?"
Luo Xi scoffed, "What's there to worry about? If you tell them, wouldn't those people know you're... well, special? Besides, what good would it do you? What bad would it do us? I think you know very well."
He Fei thought their words made sense, and joining the group they suggested, with their protection from behind, wouldn't be a bad idea. He then asked, "What if they don't agree?"
Xu Anran said, "Then you should try to get them to agree. If they don't agree, then you should find your own way to the base. We're not going to wait for you!"
In the end, He Fei reluctantly agreed. The three of them discussed He Fei's explanation and their plans for the future.
Afterwards, He Fei took the phone with the GPS tracker that Xu Anran had given him and went to the shop in front of him alone.
