Chapter 38

With Deng Zhifan's temporary team collapsing, the atmosphere around the altar suddenly became relaxed, and the pressure that had been weighing on the players dissipated.

"Siyu, stop picking things up, let's go!"

Bao Qi urged, "Hurry up and enter the teleportation array."

"Bao Qi! Wang Yu!"

Zhao Siyu's expression was serious. "I hope you can recognize your own status and not speak recklessly in front of Sun Yuan. You don't have the right, and neither do I."

"I... I was just trying to help everyone."

Bao Qi felt very uncomfortable after being lectured by Zhao Siyu.

Wang Yu pursed her lips, feeling wronged.

"Regardless of who you're trying to help, you've misunderstood one thing. We survived because of Sun Yuan. Whatever he decides to do should be the top priority. Either you tolerate it or leave."

Zhao Siyu's tone was heavy.

Because she was helping Bao Qi and Wang Yu, if they didn't listen, they would definitely be abandoned by Sun Yuan.

To be honest, Sun Yuan initially favored Xu Qingshan's simplicity and honesty, thinking he could be a good friend, and that's why he saved the rest of them.

Otherwise, they would still be worrying about the Ganlu mushrooms.

"Even if the world has become a game, a place of survival of the fittest, you still need to learn what to say and what not to say, even in the real world."

Zhao Siyu knew these words were unpleasant, but they had to be said, or Bao Qi and Wang Yu would soon be in trouble.

She finished searching Deng Zhifan and then went to rummage through Fan Youbao's pockets and backpack.

To be honest, it was the first time she had done such a thing, and she felt very nervous and uncomfortable, but she knew she had to do it.

She needed to prove her worth.

Fortunately, each of the two college students had a Ganlu mushroom, whether they had found it themselves or taken it from others, but now they were Sun Yuan's spoils.

"A bunch of fish!"

Xu Qingshan looked at the fleeing players with disdain, then his gaze fell on Sun Yuan, and he was envious: "When will I be as strong as you?"

"Very soon. Work hard to complete tasks, clear a few more divine towers, and you can accumulate a lot of points to buy attribute points to strengthen your body."

Sun Yuan smiled: "And this isn't even called strong!"

You haven't seen my complete form in the mobile game yet!

Solo tower clearing, it's incredibly powerful!

"Sun Yuan, I found two Ganlu mushrooms, half a pack of cigarettes, and two lighters."

Zhao Siyu came over and handed everything to Sun Yuan.

"Thanks for the trouble!"

Sun Yuan liked working with people like Zhao Siyu because it was easy: "Can you give the Ganlu mushrooms to Li Wan?"

"Leader, this is something you should do!"

Zhao Siyu didn't go but instead handed the mushrooms to Sun Yuan and reminded Xu Qingshan to be vigilant.

"Alright!"

Sun Yuan walked towards Li Wan.

"Why can only the leader do this?"

Xu Qingshan didn't understand.

"This is about showing favor and winning people's hearts, and it's definitely something the leader does."

Zhao Siyu patiently taught Xu Qingshan about interpersonal skills.

"Actually, there's another point. I just picked up the mushrooms. Even if I gave them to Li Wan personally, she wouldn't owe me anything, after all, these players were defeated by Sun Yuan."

"It sounds so complicated!"

Xu Qingshan scratched his head, not wanting to think about these things.

Zhao Siyu originally wanted to advise Xu Qingshan that if he didn't understand these things and didn't mature quickly, he would only be a henchman and couldn't take on important roles, but she eventually gave up.

Everyone has their own path, and you can't force it.

"Li Wan, here are the two Ganlu mushrooms."

Sun Yuan handed the mushrooms to Li Wan and then called everyone: "Let's go, into the teleportation array!"

"Sun Yuan, thank you!"

Li Wan blushed and thanked him.

"It's nothing!"

Sun Yuan didn't take such a small matter to heart and turned to walk towards the altar.

"You see, you were wrong. Sun Yuan doesn't care about winning people's hearts."

Xu Qingshan thought Sun Yuan was a simple person.

Zhao Siyu rolled her eyes.

A bookish beauty making such a gesture had a unique charm, making Xu Qingshan's heart race and his love overflow.

"Let's go! Let's go!"

Zhen Yu stood by the altar, calling everyone.

Well,

Back when my team was just starting, we only had a few people and a few guns. When we encountered powerful monsters, they chased me around. Thanks to Senior Sun for leading me through it.

Zhen Yu watched everyone file into the teleportation array, humming a tune, feeling very pleased!

I am Senior Sun's loyal dog,

Senior Sun's team is mine,

No problem!

As Sun Yuan and his group teleported away, the players who had already found three mushrooms immediately ran over.

They wanted to enter before the other players blocked the giant stone altar again.

One, two,

The teleportation array kept flashing with light.

"What do you plan to do?"

Xu Jing looked at the altar and asked He Ming.

The two of them, unfortunate, had formed a temporary team for mutual support.

"My leg is injured. Even if I tried to抢 mushrooms, it wouldn't work. I plan to try the teleportation array. Maybe I can pass without the mushrooms."

He Ming swallowed, very nervous.

If he failed, he would definitely be eliminated.

"Good luck!"

Xu Jing was cautious. She planned to wait for He Ming to test the way. If it worked, she would do the same.

"Ha ha!"

He Ming gave a bitter laugh, leaning on a tree branch, and limped towards the altar.

Damn Chu Yuntao, if it weren't for them, I would have completed the task and could have watched other players struggle.

He Ming stepped on the stone steps, one step at a time.

His heart was pounding like a drum.

Finally, he stood on the teleportation array.

A pale yellow light shone, and a warm feeling washed over him.

"Can I really pass?"

He Ming's eyes lit up.

"Player He Ming, the game system has detected that you do not have a Ganlu mushroom. The teleportation array cannot be activated, and because you did not meet the conditions, you will be eliminated!"

The countdown to elimination began,

Ten,

Nine,

...

The Silver Horse was very sadistic, giving a countdown to make players show their ugliest sides before death.

This was also a selling point of its channel.

"No... don't kill me!"

He Ming's face turned pale, and he ran down the altar in a panic, but it was useless.

When the countdown ended, his head exploded with a bang.

Flesh and blood splattered everywhere, covering the steps.

Thud!

Xu Jing was so scared that she fell to the ground, her legs trembling.

"It's over!"

Xu Jing was in tears.

She now deeply regretted not having a good relationship with Sun Yuan. If she had, she wouldn't have to die.

One misstep, and a thousand regrets!

"Why did he get a headshot?"

A player was shocked.

"Ha ha, as expected, players without three Ganlu mushrooms who step on the teleportation array get a headshot!"

Fan Youbao lay on the ground, closing his eyes.

Since he couldn't survive, he might as well enjoy the peace before death!

Sigh!

I really want to fall in love!

If there is a next life, I won't waste my days. I will work hard to improve my life and become an excellent person.

Not everyone was like Fan Youbao, lying down and giving up. Those without enough mushrooms started a frenzied fight.

A melee broke out.

...

"Chen Yang, here's the fragrant pig."

Qin De found three Ganlu mushrooms and handed the vine rope tied to the fragrant pig to Chen Yang.

"You're just leaving?"

Chen Yang tried to stop him.

"Classmate, if we fight, you might not win. Better to find Ganlu mushrooms while there's still time!"

Qin De sneered.

Chen Yang was silent, cursed fiercely, and hurried to find mushrooms.

"You... you can't leave!"

Zhao Limin spread her arms to block Qin De.

"What do I do if you leave?"

Zhao Limin originally thought they would take turns finding mushrooms, but she realized she was wrong.

In reality, it was based on combat power. The strongest would get the three mushrooms first.

This left no chance for the weak Zhao Limin.

"Classmate, I don't know you!"

Qin De tried to push Zhao Limin, but she hugged him.

"I... I am Sun Yuan's ex-girlfriend."

Zhao Limin remembered how Qin De had tried to please Sun Yuan. She turned her eyes and lied: "Sun Yuan still loves me. If you take me back, I'll speak well of you and get you into his team."

Slap!

Qin De slapped Zhao Limin, leaving a handprint on her face.

"Do you think I'm stupid? With your looks, how could Sun Yuan like you?"

Qin De sneered: "Even if you are his ex-girlfriend, if I bring you back, he will definitely resent me!"

Zhao Limin was stunned, half her face in pain.

Qin De pushed her hard: "Classmate, the world has changed. Didn't you see? Several pretty girls are already surrounding Sun Yuan."

"Don't leave me!"

Zhao Limin tried to pull Qin De: "I'll be your girlfriend!"

"Get lost!"

To be honest, Zhao Limin was average-looking. In the past, Qin De wouldn't have minded dating her, but now,

Surviving is more important.

Around the altar, some players were giving up, while others were making their last efforts, leading to widespread fighting.

Qin De fought his way through the crowd and climbed onto the altar.

When the light shone, a warm feeling washed over him, and everything became blurry and distorted until his vision went completely black. Only then did he finally relax and feel at ease.

A few seconds later, the light shone again, and his vision returned.

Qin De found himself in a garden with green grass.

Sun Yuan and his group were sitting on the ground nearby, probably discussing strategies for the next divine tower game.

"Leader!"

Qin De shouted and ran over.

No matter the cost, I will follow this team.

...

"Why are you so disheveled?"

Xu Qingshan was curious.

Qin De's clothes were wrinkled and torn, with bloodstains, and he himself was bruised and swollen.

"The players at the teleportation array were fighting like mad!"

Qin De was still shaken: "If I weren't so strong, I would have been done for!"

Bao Qi and the others were all very scared when they heard this.

"Leader, with my strength, do I have the right to be your team member?"

Qin De looked at Sun Yuan and smiled: "Let's form an iron triangle. We can definitely clear this game and get the first kill."
