Chapter 5

Zhou Tian, even if he was somewhat different, was still just a half-orc warrior. If other half-orc warriors had disappeared for some unknown reason, then if Zhou Tian were to encounter the same situation or person, he would also be destined to possibly disappear.

Disappearance did not necessarily mean something bad, but without knowing what had happened to the disappeared half-orc warriors, Zhou Tian naturally did not want to vanish silently like them one day.

In that situation, when Zhou Tian noticed that some half-orc warriors had disappeared, he showed no outward signs. However, after patrolling his living area as usual, Zhou Tian began to gather information about the half-orc warriors who had disappeared.

"Every trace here indicates that a battle took place not long ago. However, if the disappeared half-orc warriors were killed by someone, why didn't the other half-orc warriors, who were not far away, notice and pay attention to it? I really need to carefully observe what will happen in this area later." Zhou Tian was absolutely confident in his discovery. However, while believing in his hypothesis, there were still many doubts that Zhou Tian could not understand. In that situation, Zhou Tian, who was puzzled, decided to explore that area.

Under the rather lax management of the half-orc warriors, when Zhou Tian had that thought, he easily withdrew from his patrol duty.

Without attracting the attention of other half-orc warriors, Zhou Tian closely watched the area where the half-orc warriors had disappeared.

At first, Zhou Tian did not find anything. However, after about a week of closely watching that area, things took a new turn.

"What's going on?" Seeing several humans approaching a half-orc warrior, and other half-orc warriors ignoring the situation, allowing the half-orc warrior to be surrounded and killed by the humans, Zhou Tian's mind went blank.

"Are those half-orc warriors blind? They didn't even notice the enemies so close to them." Seeing those humans continuously killing the half-orc warriors nearby while the other half-orc warriors ignored them, Zhou Tian felt a surge of anxiety.

Although his emotions were somewhat out of control, Zhou Tian did not immediately jump out. Instead, upon discovering the abnormal situation, he immediately retreated from the area and began to speculate on what was happening.

All half-orc warriors looked almost the same, unless they had experienced enough killing to gain the experience needed for evolution, none of them would really be different from their companions.

Based on Zhou Tian's discovery, he did not believe that the half-orc warriors were really blind. Therefore, it could only mean one thing: the half-orc warriors were not really blind, but some unknown energy or ability was interfering with their nerves, making them ignore the enemies right in front of them.

When Zhou Tian had that hypothesis, he suddenly became excited.

If this was really a game world, then there must be three different groups in this world.

First, the strongest group was naturally the monster group to which Zhou Tian belonged. Although they were constantly pushed back in the game, in terms of performance during monster sieges and overall strength, the monster group was undoubtedly the strongest force. If not for their internal disunity, they would have already had the power to unify the world.

The second group Zhou Tian had encountered was the NPCs in the game. Although the NPCs he met were quite different from those in his game experience, regardless of the changes, Zhou Tian had already seen the members of the second group in this world.

The true existence that Zhou Tian had never met and was wary of was the real main characters in the game, the third group in this world, the players from Earth.

Zhou Tian did not know what kind of existence the players were in this world. It was even uncertain whether players really existed in this world. However, based on the behavior of the group he saw, if Zhou Tian had to give them an identity, he found it hard to believe that, in such a small monster area, any other existence could do those things except for the players.

With that thought in mind, Zhou Tian suddenly had the impulse to eliminate those players.

Perhaps his own experiences made him somewhat envious of the idle players, or perhaps it was out of self-interest. Since killing NPCs had proven to provide an opportunity for evolution, Zhou Tian really wanted to see what kind of rewards he would get if he killed those players.

With that thought in mind, Zhou Tian took no time to act. As soon as he had the idea, he immediately came up with a plan.

To deal with those players, it was indeed difficult, but if the right method was found, it would be easy to deal with them.

The advantage of the players was that their actions were not seen by most of the monsters in this world. In the NPC cities, they could buy various equipment and potions, and even if their strength was comparable, the monsters would often be worn down by the players.

However, if Zhou Tian wanted to deal with them, the biggest advantage of the players, not being seen by the monsters, would no longer exist. Although he did not know what power caused that situation, Zhou Tian believed that if he had a large number of half-orcs attack the area where the players were, even if they could not see the players, they would still pose a threat.

With a plan in mind, Zhou Tian immediately took action.

Due to his quick talent and intelligence, which gave him an advantage in battle, even though Zhou Tian's strength was not absolutely superior to that of ordinary half-orc warriors, he had become a small, unacknowledged leader in his living area.

While it was indeed difficult for Zhou Tian to command too many half-orc warriors, controlling a dozen or so was not a problem for him.

In that situation, when Zhou Tian was ready to act, he immediately turned around and gathered the group of half-orc warriors he had won over with various means.
