Luo Chen was alarmed; this was not a good sign.
[Strange, extremely strange!]
[I'm just a minor supporting character, why would I have the reaction of a main character?]
Luo Chen scanned his surroundings, his face full of vigilance.
Old Tie, noticing Xiao's sudden strange expression, leaned closer and asked, "Xiao, what's wrong with you?"
He still has great faith in Xiao's abilities, which is a consensus among everyone.
At this moment, he is at least temporarily acting as the group leader.
"It's nothing, just sniff." Luo Chen wrinkled his nose and looked at Lao Tie, his expression furious: "Can you smell a stench?"
"Huh?" Old Tie was stunned for a moment, then sniffed around and said, "No."
"It seems to have disappeared. Maybe my nose is blocked." Luo Chen sat up straight and said calmly, looking straight ahead.
Damn it, I thought you'd discovered something, and this is what you give me?
The guy was internally devastated.
However, remembering that Luo Chen had sneezed several times earlier, she thought that there might be something wrong with his nose, so she patted Luo Chen and asked with concern, "How's your nose? I'll get some medicine later."
[Dude, is this the important point?]
Luo Chen glanced at him, pointed ahead, and said, "Why hasn't Jiang Tao come out yet? Is he plotting something behind the scenes?"
Old Tie glanced at it; he had naturally noticed it before. Jiang Tao had been gone for so long; there might really be something fishy going on.
"Xiao, now that you mention it, it's quite possible. Could they be plotting something behind the scenes?"
The surrounding area was also noisy, as there were several hundred people waiting there.
Were they gathered here just to participate in a staring contest?
"Why hasn't it started yet? What's going on?"
"Could it be that Mayor Jiang is taking advantage of this time to have some fun in the back?"
"You have to be careful what you say, these days, words can easily cause trouble."
Nobody's a fool. They came here to see what Jiang Tao's plans were. Now that he'd raised this question, he had to give everyone a reasonable explanation.
Everyone just wants to survive. In this chaotic world, every day is precious, and every bowl of rice is precious.
Everyone has limited energy, so don't waste it.
"Xiao, did you really discover something just now?" Old Tie noticed the commotion around him and asked Luo Chen again.
Why are you bringing this up again? You can't let it go, can you?
Luo Chen shook his head: "I don't know, let's wait and see. Such a big matter probably requires more discussion and preparation."
[What's wrong with Jiang Tao? He seemed like such a respectable person before, but now he's left everyone hanging.]
Let's wait and see what happens next, and see if we can get any information.
[In this dream, caution is paramount. What are we doing here? Isn't it just to complete a mission?]
What's necessary to complete a task? More information, of course. Only with more information can you prepare for the next step.
Luo Chen carefully observed his surroundings.
That's what you call professionalism!
Despite his professionalism, he didn't notice that the large hood beside him had quietly returned.
Jiang Xian'er returned again, pondering her previous speculations about why she could hear those words.
Unexpectedly, upon arrival, I heard this person's series of inner thoughts, and I almost lost my footing.
What kind of dream was it? And what was the mission?
Could this strange man be a spy sent from elsewhere?
Why can I hear his thoughts, but others can't?
A series of messages lingered in Jiang Xian'er's mind; she had never encountered anything like this in her more than ten years of life.
It wouldn't be strange if it were on someone else.
"Could the Dream Realm be a mysterious organization?" Jiang Xian'er stared intently at Luo Chen, her gaze fixed on nothing else. This strange experience instantly filled her with curiosity.
For a girl who has always been curious, this kind of thing quickly began to trigger a series of associations in her mind.
A massive conspiracy has suddenly unfolded before him, and he is the key figure to saving the world. A mysterious door has appeared, and his responsibility is to find the key to open it. Now, the key is right in front of him.
This person must be up to no good!
Jiang Xian'er had instilled this idea in herself very well: the reason she could hear this person's voice was that she must be the chosen one.
"Don't worry, I will always keep an eye on you." Jiang Xian'er's eyes seemed to burn with raging fire, and she clenched her fists tightly.
She is ready to sacrifice herself for the world at any time.
Her murderous gaze naturally caught Luo Chen's attention; he couldn't help but notice it even if he didn't want to.
That look was anything but kind.
[Strange, why is that big hood looking like that?]
[This is practically begging me to eat him up! Is this person a man? Or perhaps a gay man?]
Luo Chen couldn't help but shudder; this was truly unusual.
He had noticed the hooded man staring at him earlier, but he had tried to keep it under control.
Now look at this, so blatant!
Forget it, there are all sorts of strange people here. Let's focus on the important matter first.
Luo Chen snapped out of his thoughts and prepared to turn around, but suddenly saw that Big Hood had extended his right index and middle fingers, pointing at his own eyes and then at himself.
[Holy crap, is this a hidden character in the story? Or did I accidentally trigger some weird NPC?]
Luo Chen was so frightened that he turned around immediately.
Jiang Xian'er, on the other hand, was smug and afraid of Luo Chen. She had the air of a petty person who had achieved her goal.
[This girl is truly chosen by heaven; she was terrified with just a glance.]
[What plot characters, what NPCs? There are definitely a lot of things we don't know.]
Don't worry, I will protect this world.
Jiang Xian'er held firm to her beliefs and clenched her hands tightly.
Luo Chen carefully touched his chest, becoming somewhat wary of the large hood.
The sudden appearance of such a blatant person inevitably made him suspicious.
Is this really the plot's doing? The plot is getting more and more incomprehensible.
[It's even more terrifying than reality, after all, everything is unknown.]
"Bro." Luo Chen lowered his voice as much as possible so that only the two of them could hear him.
"Hmm?" Old Tie turned to look at Luo Chen, and seeing his cautious demeanor, he instantly understood.
"Doesn't that big hood behind me look strange?"
Lao Tie covered his face with his hand, glanced at Luo Chen a few times, and nodded.
"Is there something wrong with this person?"
Luo Chen was surprised. As expected of someone with a lot of mercenary experience, Lao Tie could tell right away.
"What's the problem?" Luo Chen asked expectantly.
"This person is wearing so many layers and a mask, doesn't he feel hot?"
Luo Chen: "..."
Where did your previous vigilance go? I [xxxx] you [xxxx] .
