As the others were busy inside, at the square located outside.

Sun Shuai looked at the sharp beetles that retreated into another abandoned warehouse and exhaled heavily. He only felt that his legs were wobbly as he almost fell.

He did not follow the players into the warehouse to move the magic crystals. At this moment, he only felt pleased to be alive.

“Double the horror! If I’m allowed to play this terrible game again, I will go bomb your headquarters!”

After taking another extremely deep breath, Sun Shuai swallowed his saliva again. He had never been so helpless in his life. Even though he knew that this was a game, he was still so frightened that he was not even able to walk.

After sitting on the same spot for half a minute, and after Sun Shuai felt that he had caught his breath, his first thought was to leave this place and go a little further away.

When he stood up, Sun Shuai suddenly saw a person leaning on the wall far away who was also breathing heavily.

“It’s that NPC!”

Although Sun Shuai had been terrified, he still managed to notice the NPC’s flame-like sword. Thus, he immediately started taking steps toward that person.

His thoughts were almost the same as other players. He felt that this should be an NPC that triggered some kind of mission. Although the display from the other party almost made his heart jump out from his throat, this did not change a thing—he had paid the price and it was now time to go over and ask about the mission.

“That… Nice to meet you. Is your wound okay?” Sun Shuai walked in front of the NPC, opened his mouth, and asked.

This NPC could be said to be the first adult male apart from him since he entered this game. The NPC was around 30 to 40 years old, had a strong body, and short greyish white hair. It was just that his face seemed to be weather-bitten.

Anyways, when it came to the characters in this game, Sun Shuai only had one comment, and that was that the modeling was awesome!

Gusa leaned on a broad sword with some difficulty to support his body. When he saw this stranger walking over, the look in his eyes showed a faint alertness.

He then noticed that this person’s costume was a little familiar. He saw a lot of people in this set-up when the gnolls attacked the camp, however, he was unsure if he had seen this person in particular before.

He only opened his mouth with some difficulty to reply when the person asked him this question, “Thank you and your companions for saving me.”

“You’re welcome, you’re welcome!” Sun Shuai’s face was filled with joy. He felt that this mission trigger was about to bring up the main subject.

“I just don’t know if there is going to be a job change, or skill, or something else?” Although he always showed an arrogant attitude when amongst the players, his nature was not that different from that of normal players.

However, the other party’s reply made Sun Shuai feel a little dumbfounded.

Gusa moved his body with difficulty while pulling his broad sword along as he simply said, “I need to leave!”

“Hmm?” Sun Shuai was slightly taken aback and continued asking, “What? You are leaving?”

Gusa nodded. He still had a lingering fear of these people that had dressed in such a costume when they faced the gnolls.

He told Sheridan that people who survived in the City of Despair should help one another, but, most of the time, a lot of the survivors did not fall in the mouths of monsters, but at the hands of their own people.

The more order crumbled, the eviler humanity became.

Even more so since this place was the land of the exiled.

“Do you have anything that you want to tell me? Such as some skills… Or if you want to give me or tell me something.”

Sun Shuai took another step forward, looked at this middle-aged man, and asked again. He felt that this NPC was acting a little weird. Not only did he not mention his name, but he also seemed to be hiding something from him.

Gusa looked at Sun Shuai weirdly, shook his head, and ignored him. Sheridan had escaped from the sharp beetles just now but he had no idea where he had gone now. In this dangerous city, and with his young age, who knew if he could make it back to the camp on his own.

“This… F*cking does not follow the status quo!”

Sun Shuai looked on as Gusa dragged himself forward and started leaving step by step. It was obvious that he had suffered from a serious injury. It might be due to his fight with the sharp beetles, but a huge reason for this was definitely because of the ultimate skill that caused the broadsword to burst into flames.

“No. I cannot let this NPC leave just like this!”

He had finally met an NPC that knew skills, but now, he was being ignored. This made Sun Shuai very unhappy.

Although he was unlike Liu Chuanfeng, who would talk about killing an NPC to see if he would get an item, as a player, he still had no real concern for these NPCs.

The NPCs in the camp had clear restrictions to not be attacked, but this one in front of him obviously did not have such a rule.

Sun Shuai pulled the iron sword from his waist and was about to give the NPC in front of him a stab to see if he would burst into an item and skill book.

However, his thoughts suddenly changed and he was a little hesitant.

“What is the reason why this mission had not been activated? Just now Phoenix did not make any gestures, so it’s obvious that they did not know each other. That means that they are from different camps. If it’s a different camp, then does this NPC have other use? Or could there be more triggering conditions?”

Compared to Liu Chuanfeng’s rude and impetuous characteristic, Sun Shuai felt that he was very good at figuring things out and conducting analysis calmly.

The thoughts in his brain changed and he didn’t rush forward to try to gain some items. Instead, he picked up the iron sword, lowered his head, then wiped the knife in some of the dead sharp beetles’ blood and poison glands. After this, he walked quickly toward Gusa, who was walking ahead with some difficulty.

Gusa slowly walked along the destroyed street. The consequences of forcefully using the forbidden power had meant that his body had been unable to withstand it. Pain and fatigue continuously weakened him. However, he was still very worried about Sheridan, who had run away, as well as the situation of his camp.

At this moment, Gusa suddenly felt someone approaching him quickly from the back. He felt that it would be the weird person that he had met earlier. Although those people saved him just now, he did not want to engage with them too much.

Suddenly, Gusa felt a sharp pain in his left leg. It seemed to have been cut by a sharp knife.

“He wants to kill me?” This thought appeared in Gusa’s brain. He then used all his energy to pick up his broadsword to counter-attack. However, in his current condition, it was not easy.

The thing that bothered him the most was his left leg suddenly went numb. He could not stand properly and immediately fell down.

“Leader Sun, what are you doing?”

At this moment, the players that were holding the boxes and had lots of packages in their hands came out. Li Yuncheng carried a big bag with a magic crystal inside it that weighed around 10 kilograms. Coincidentally, he saw Sun Shuai’s actions and asked loudly.

“F*ck me. Hey handsome, didn’t you fail at walking just now? Yet, you are able to pick up your knife now?” Liu Chuanfeng moved closer. He looked at Sun Shuai, who was holding his iron sword, and shouted in surprise. He felt like laughing again when he recalled Sun Shuai’s pitiful appearance earlier.

Sun Shuai looked at the people who had gained a lot of rewards and sighed helplessly. He pointed at Gusa on the ground. “I didn’t manage to get the magic crystals, so I guessed that I would not receive my mission rewards. Thus, I caught an NPC!”
