Chapter 142 Have you met Su Jin1?
"Ding!" A system prompt sounded, and Su Jin looked at his watch.
[539 System Points +10]
He Xiao looked at the watch on his wrist anxiously. Time passed by minute by minute, but Su Jinyi still hadn't come back.
"Can you thank 539 for me? She just saved everyone and saved me twice. I want to thank her in person, but..." Zoe felt guilty for not helping 539 and didn't dare to see her.
He Xiao's thoughts were interrupted by her. He didn't hear clearly what she said and just nodded randomly.
Everyone else has left, as if nothing had happened here, but the two mummies lying on the ground are a constant reminder of everything that happened here.
He Xiao looked at the timer again
[ 1 hour and 20 minutes ]
He Xiao recalled what Su Jinyi had told him before he left.
"If I don't come back within an hour, you leave here immediately and protect yourself! No need to wait for me!"
He Xiao looked at the time unwillingly, his vision gradually blurred, and he wiped his face randomly in shame.
"Boss..."
"Yes! Find the boss!"
He Xiao made up his mind and ran to another direction immediately. Now was not the time for him to be sad. They brought Miss Su here, so they had to be responsible for her.
Now we have to find the boss. Only with the boss can we rescue Miss Su, even though we don’t know if Miss Su is still alive...
just in case……
He Xiao couldn't imagine what the boss would do if something happened.
He Xiao was like a headless fly, running around in this vast forest. Since Miss Su has arrived in this area, the boss must be here too.
The dense forest stretched endlessly, with no end in sight, like a green ocean, which made him feel powerless and confused. Countless vegetation intertwined together, forming a natural barrier that severely blocked his vision, making it difficult for him to even distinguish the road ahead, let alone find someone.
As he walked further and further, He Xiao was surprised to find that the scenery here would change every time he walked by, and he was not sure if he was walking the same route repeatedly.
In such an environment, not to mention finding the boss, even not getting lost became a luxury. With every step, He Xiao needed to carefully push aside the branches in front of him to avoid being tripped or lost.
He Xiao became more and more anxious. Time passed by, but he still had no clues and did not meet anyone else along the way.
When they were in the Flying Eagle Army, each of them carried a locator, so it was easy for them to find each other, but now they have nothing...
He Xiao slowly calmed down. The boss said that if they couldn't figure out the direction and couldn't find their teammates, they must leave their marks wherever they passed.
Even if you don't find your teammates in the end, you can give yourself some psychological comfort so that you don't get frightened in the wild.
He Xiao drew out his dagger, walked to a big tree, and left a string of letters on the tree with the dagger.
Wherever he passed, he would use his dagger to leave letters unique to the Flying Eagle Army on the trees, and he gradually felt relieved. He believed that Miss Su would be fine.
-
"Boss, look here, there is a new discovery!" Li Haodong shouted excitedly, pointing at a tree.
Lu Shaoang followed his gaze and saw the letters used within their Flying Eagle Army.
"Boss, who could this person be?" Li Haodong asked excitedly.
When Lu Shaoang was teleported here, he happened to see Li Haodong fighting with a snake. He rescued him and asked him to follow him to avoid him getting into danger again.
"I guess it's He Xiao." Lu Shaoang said lightly.
"That's great! I knew He Xiao could survive! Where would he be now?" Li Haodong asked puzzledly.
Lu Shaoang carefully looked at the letters on the surrounding trees again. Judging from their weight and degree of completeness, the other party wrote them in a hurry, as if he was in a hurry to travel?
What's the hurry? Lu Shaoang frowned.
"It looks like the other party is very anxious. No matter who it is, let's find that person." Lu Shaoang said coldly.
Li Haodong was shocked by the captain's attitude. Ever since Miss Su showed up, the captain's mood was rarely so bad. He always looked indifferent and was occasionally easy to talk to. Why did his mood suddenly turn bad?
Could it be related to Miss Su? Li Haodong was shocked by his own thoughts. Could it really be because of Miss Su?
Li Haodong silently looked at the captain's cold back as he walked in front of him. Then he remembered that the captain and Miss Su seemed to have special numbers. Why didn't they appear together?
He was so frightened that his eyes widened, and he dared not guess any further. He had witnessed how powerful Su Jinyi was, and he did not believe that she could be killed so easily.
But looking at the captain again, Li Haodong inexplicably began to feel sorry for the captain. The captain was actually worried about Miss Su, right?
"How long are you going to watch?" A cold voice interrupted Li Haodong's thoughts.
Only then did he realize that he was some distance behind the captain. Li Haodong was surprised. It turned out that he was just being too sentimental. The captain didn't seem to be worried about others at all! He was obviously doing well!
But Li Haodong's body was more honest, and he immediately quickened his pace to catch up.
He Xiao did not dare to stop for even a second, as he only had one thought in mind: to find the boss. This belief was like a beacon in the darkness, tempting him to keep moving forward. He left marks on the tree over and over again, silently hoping that his teammates would find him sooner with each mark.
Suddenly He Xiao tripped over something under his feet. As he had been in a state of high tension for a long time, this sudden change caught him off guard. He instantly lost his balance and fell forward.
"He Xiao!" Suddenly a hurried voice sounded. He Xiao thought he had heard it wrong. He was about to shake his head and stand up, but his feet were entangled by a sticky thing.
Before He Xiao could react, Lu Shaoang immediately ran over, picked up the dagger and instantly slashed open the chest of something. He Xiao only felt his feet lighten.
As a bloody smell came, He Xiao could see clearly that the thing was a small snake, which was killed by Lu Shaoang by cutting open its chest.
He Xiao was sure that the boss had found him. Perhaps he had traveled too far, or perhaps he felt guilty towards Su Jinyi. His eyes were instantly filled with tears, and he said aggrievedly: "Boss..."
Lu Shaoang frowned and said bluntly: "It's not a big deal, is it worth crying? Are you a man..."
"No, I'm sorry, boss..." He Xiao interrupted him with a sob.
Lu Shaoang's eyelids twitched, motioning for him to continue.
He Xiao saw that he could no longer conceal the truth. Since it was unknown whether Miss Su was alive or dead, he would tell the boss sooner so that he could rescue her sooner in case she was still alive.
If...what if he didn't dare to think about it.
"Miss Su..."
"Have you met Su Jinyi? Where is she?" Lu Shaoang immediately said excitedly when he heard Su Jinyi's name.
