Chapter 147 Safe Zone 1 - Reunion with an Old Friend
Ning Shu returned to Maple Forest, summoned the panel, and took out the item selected for this instance.
Haha, she finally has a means of transportation! (Hands on hips)
She immediately stopped laughing, because—she couldn't ride a horse.
But she has to learn how to use it; she can't just treat the horse like a pet.
If she couldn't ride properly, she would fall to her death, so she could only put the horse back in the control panel and walk towards safe zone number 1.
Damn it, I should have just rewarded her with a bicycle. Now she not only has to learn to ride a horse but also buy equipment. It's such a waste of money.
Ning Shu walked for most of the day before finally leaving the maple forest and finding a place with a bus stop sign to wait.
What are we waiting for? Of course, we're waiting for a passing convoy, and ideally, we'll get her to wait for the Gale convoy.
As she wished, she got her turn, spent two points to take a ride, and then spent another 10 points to successfully enter safe zone number 1.
Upon entering the familiar place, Ning Shu burst into tears. It had been so long since she had returned, and she wondered how Cheng Chuan was doing.
Normally, if she didn't know that other players had forgotten about her, she would have gone straight to Li Mengqi's house, but now she won't.
Because going there would only make the other person think she was trying to get something for nothing, and would bring her no benefit whatsoever.
There's plenty of time; she can reintegrate into their lives and regain her former status.
Now she has to find a place to live on her own and find another opportunity to reunite with Cheng Chuan and the others.
Ning Shu was very efficient; she went to find a place to stay near Li Mengqi's house.
Because the place where Li Mengqi lives can only be rented by people from a certain organization, she cannot live in the same community as them.
I could only rent a single room in a slightly better place nearby, which cost me 10 points.
She discovered that after leaving Lei Tao, her points were disappearing like water, and she couldn't help but sigh that points really don't last long.
Ning Shu bought two more sets of clothes and a set of pajamas at the mall. Actually, she still had some clothes left with Li Mengqi, which she probably wouldn't be able to get back.
She also bought some other daily necessities, so she spent nearly 50 points today.
Ning Shu felt a pang of regret. If she had known it would cost so many points, she should have stayed with Lei Tao for a few more days and earned more points.
After tidying up, she ate a set meal and then lay down on the bed and fell into a good sleep.
She took a day off and sold all the props she felt she no longer needed; there was a prop trading platform in the mall.
Once the items are placed on the shelf, if someone is willing to buy them, they will contact her, and then the transaction points can be discussed.
She placed the sharp knife and the heavy weight into her spatial storage. The knife was so small that it didn't take up much space, and the weight, despite its name suggesting it was heavy, was actually quite small.
Ning Shu used it as a personal prop because she read the instruction manual, which stated that it could grow to a size of 1,000 kilograms in an instant.
She thought that if there was an enemy she couldn't defeat, she would release the weight, make it grow larger, and crush the opponent to death.
After finishing all that, Ning Shu thought that Cheng Chuan and the others often trained at the Small Universe Burst Training Camp, so why not go there and bump into them?
So she went to the training camp and spent another 20 points to get in.
Oh, it hurts so much, Ning Shu clutched her heart.
Gao Jun naturally didn't recognize her either, assuming she was a new player. He first gave her a physical fitness test and found that her reaction speed was good, but her physical fitness was too poor.
After completing the test, Ning Shu discovered something: her physical fitness had also been refreshed, returning her to her original "useless" state.
She felt as if struck by lightning; it was all the hardship she had endured to develop that skill.
Now that she's back to square one, she almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
While Ning Shu was thinking, Gao Jun had already called Ying Zhinian over.
"Xiao Ning, this is Coach Ying, who is in charge of basic training. He will be your trainer from now on."
Upon hearing this, Ning Shu looked up at Ying Zhinian and found him staring at her with the same indifferent expression as when they first met.
Coach Ying always had an icy demeanor, and she could already foresee how tough the training would be, inwardly groaning.
Ning Shu smiled ingratiatingly at Ying Zhinian: "Hello Coach Ying, there's something else I need your help with, which is that I want to learn how to ride a horse."
Ying Zhinian was somewhat surprised: "Riding a horse?"
Ning Shu told him about how she had acquired a horse as a prop.
Ying Zhinian nodded: "I don't know how to ride a horse either. I'll talk to another coach, and you can learn to ride with him after you finish the basic training."
Ning Shu nodded in agreement. From then on, her training plan was to spend two-thirds of her training time on physical training and the rest of the time learning to ride horses.
She had originally planned to go find Cheng Chuan and Wu Yi during her training break, but her body wouldn't allow it; she felt like she was about to collapse.
In the end, she had to hold onto the wall to leave the training camp; she almost had to crawl back.
It took her three days to adapt to the training intensity. On the fourth day, while she was learning to ride a horse, she suddenly heard a familiar voice calling her.
"Ning Shu?"
Ning Shu turned her head and was overjoyed. It was Cheng Chuan! He had actually found her first! It was truly a case of "searching high and low without finding it, only to have it come to you effortlessly".
She was as happy as a child, and immediately dismounted and ran towards him.
"Cheng Chuan, it's you! What a coincidence!" Ning Shu smiled, her eyes crinkling.
Cheng Chuan was taken aback at first, then smiled and replied, "It's quite a coincidence. I didn't expect you to be in this game too."
Upon hearing this, Ning Shu guessed that Cheng Chuan's memories had also been refreshed. She was initially disappointed, but quickly realized that it was to be expected.
"Yes, one day I found myself inexplicably here, and discovered that this was a game."
The two seemed to have been reunited after a long separation, and began to chat casually. Ning Shu knew most of Cheng Chuan's situation, but she was a little stunned when she heard him say the following.
"My team originally had three people, including a female member who died in a dungeon not long ago, so now there are only two of us left."
"Wu Yi, come here, let me introduce you to my classmate." Cheng Chuan beckoned Wu Yi over.
When Wu Yi came over, he looked at Ning Shu and said, "Brother Chuan, why do you have so many female classmates in the game?"
Ning Shu understood what he meant. The teammate who died before was also Cheng Chuan's classmate. That's right, they were all the same person.
Cheng Chuan felt a little embarrassed by what he said: "I don't know either, but I'm still happy to see acquaintances."
Ning Shu agreed with this statement. Who wouldn't be afraid of such a crisis-ridden environment? Having a familiar person around is always better, at least it can provide some comfort.
Wu Yi greeted Ning Shu, and then it was Ning Shu's turn to talk about her situation.
Ning Shu then made it up on the spot, saying that she had two teammates before, but they both died, and now she was the only one left. For a moment, the three of them felt a sense of shared misfortune.
Suddenly, the three of them felt a darkness before their eyes, followed by a sudden brightness, and then heard the system notification sound.
