As Bu Ye was wondering where Yang Ming was, Yang Ming had already quietly sneaked up behind him.
This girl wore a smile, contemplating whether to shout loudly or give Bu Ye a hard pat on the shoulder to startle him. After all, since coming here, she had only developed a good impression of two people, and Bu Ye was one of them.
Bu Ye’s cancer cells had no reaction to Yang Ming’s level of sneak attack. Just as he was worried, his shoulder was suddenly hit hard, and a voice exploded in his ear, “Wu Song!”
Bu Ye was genuinely startled, his heart rate accelerating sharply.
Then, without turning his head, he guessed what had happened. The only person who would call him Wu Song here was Yang Ming.
“Watch out for retribution!” Bu Ye said, feigning displeasure, looking at Yang Ming, who was already in front of him with a mischievous smile.
“As long as you don’t seek revenge, I’m not afraid of retribution,” Yang Ming said with a laugh.
Ning Nie, who was standing nearby, had recovered from her穿越症状 and smiled when she heard this. She could sense that this reunion was much warmer than the last one, and she clearly preferred the current atmosphere.
To be honest, after suffering from a broken heart, she had isolated herself for two years, the most painful and lonely years of her life, but also the years during which she grew the most. She knew what loneliness felt like, so she had always felt a bit sympathetic towards Bu Ye...
At this moment, Qi Yanbin also walked over and said in a deep voice to everyone, “Have you noticed that there are not enough people?”
Everyone was taken aback; no one had actually counted carefully just now.
Bu Ye immediately raised his head, first counting the four of them, then counting the others, five, six, seven...
Nine!
There were only nine people!
And the last time they left, eleven people had survived!
At the same time, Lu Nan from the other end of the long table also walked over. Even though he could tell that everyone disliked him, he still stood in the crowd with a thick face and said, “Hello, everyone.”
Yang Ming looked at Lu Nan with feigned disdain and then said, “Have you noticed that someone is missing? What do you think, scumbag?”
Lu Nan had already noticed, but hearing the word “scumbag” still made him furious, and he didn’t know how to respond.
But Yang Ming, not letting up, suddenly brightened his eyes and said with a smile, “The ‘Nan’ in your name is great.”
Lu Nan and the others were confused, all looking at Yang Ming with questioning eyes.
“The ‘Nan’ in ‘Lu Nan’ sounds the same as the ‘Nan’ in ‘man.’ From now on, we’ll call you ‘Scumbag Nan.’ It’s a special title, you’re awesome, Scumbag Nan!” Yang Ming said cheerfully.
Ning Nie burst out laughing, her beauty like the moon emerging from the clouds, instantly brightening the eyes of the men around her and drawing the attention of others.
Qi Yanbin and Bu Ye also smiled, both thinking that “Scumbag Nan” was quite a catchy name.
Only Lu Nan was at a loss, not knowing how to respond. He regretted it again, blaming his previous speech for exposing his past. How stupid must one be to tell such a story in public? It seemed he would regret it for the rest of his life...
Fortunately, Lu Nan still remembered Yang Ming’s previous question and changed the subject, “The two who didn’t come, are they both dead?”
The atmosphere suddenly became serious, and no one laughed.
They had noticed the missing people, and so had the others. Apart from the five of them, the remaining four were the top-ranked Guo Su with an ordinary appearance, the eighteen-year-old Wang Kun, the author of the physical book Song Sicheng, and a young man in his early twenties named Yue Guang.
The four were all on the other side of the stone table, and only Wang Kun had the intention to walk over. However, just as he took a step, the red light on the stone table changed.
The red light suddenly brightened, as if awakening from a deep sleep.
The first words of the red light made everyone’s hearts race, “I am very dissatisfied with your performance in the Sky Bridge Constellation!”
Everyone looked at each other, not understanding why the red light said this, and whether it could monitor all their actions in the Sky Bridge Constellation.
“Guess how many of you died in the Sky Bridge Constellation in just 18 days!” The red light didn’t wait for their answers but continued in a stern and angry tone, “Twenty percent! Exactly twenty percent!”
“It seems that after benefiting from me, you all think you are the chosen ones and are getting arrogant! Ha ha... very good! This time, I’ll let you truly become ‘chosen ones’!” The red light emphasized the last four words.
“Anyway, the world you create will eventually need to expand outward. Invading other worlds, adaptability is one of the most important abilities. Now, let me see your adaptability!”
“In the next month, I will randomly throw you into the tribes I have created. Whether you can survive and how much benefit you can gain will depend entirely on your fate!”
“Let me remind you one last time, don’t show your intellectual limits again, you can’t afford the consequences! Mere mortals!”
The red light was angry from start to finish. After saying the last sentence, it didn’t give anyone a chance to speak, and red light chains shot out, attaching to everyone’s foreheads.
In the next instant, Bu Ye felt his body and soul being pulled out of the original world again, starting a ride on the time-space roller coaster...
A strong dizziness swept over him, and he couldn’t even tell if he was upside down or right side up, the light in his eyes changing rapidly...
“Huff!”
The beginning was fast, and the end was also fast. Just as Bu Ye was feeling uncomfortable, he suddenly felt his soul return to his body, and his feet touched the ground.
When Bu Ye opened his eyes, he couldn’t believe what he saw. The sky was clear and blue, as if it had just been wiped clean, covering the entire sky. The green grass stretched out from his feet to the distance, and herds of red and white animals were running far away. The life force almost filled the entire world. At the horizon, a huge mountain range rose up, most of it covered in snow, with steep cliffs exposing almost vertical green rock walls. Two golden eagles were circling above the snow-capped mountains, moving as fast as lightning...
Bu Ye soon heard human voices behind him.
He finally reacted and turned around, first seeing the familiar faces who were still in shock, then his eyes widened.
He was standing at the back of the crowd, and in front of him, besides Qi Yanbin and the others, there were also forty to fifty people!
These people were dressed differently, but their reactions were similar, clearly all being穿越者! It seemed several groups had converged!
However, what really made Bu Ye’s eyes widen was not these穿越者, but the other row of “people” in front of them.
In front of the穿越者, there was a row of giants with green skin, each over two meters tall, some even reaching two and a half meters!
These giants were not only tall but also extremely muscular, with green skin that had the texture of rhinoceros or crocodile skin. They had long legs and arms, all wearing simple leather armor, with weapons hanging from their waists and backs. Their eyes were cold and sharp, giving the impression of killing machines!
Behind them, on a high hill, there were rows of wooden houses, and at the foot of the hill, there was a tall wooden fence with watchtowers interspersed, manned by people who were tall but slender.
At this moment, the central giant in the row of green-skinned giants spoke, “Thank the Star God. The Qing Shi tribe has just lost many warriors and captives, and you have been sent as slaves! Slaves, our tribe only needs one kind of person, useful people! Now, come forward one by one and tell me your skills, and I will assign you your tasks.”
No one cared about the Qing Shi tribe anymore; everyone was focused on the word “slaves”!
But no one dared to question it.
The giants of the Qing Shi tribe were too intimidating, and their cold eyes clearly showed they didn’t care about the lives of slaves!
“You, come here!” The green-skinned giant who spoke was clearly the leader, standing at two and a half meters tall, the tallest and most muscular in the row. He pointed to a person at the front of the crowd, as if a gang leader pointing to a kindergarten child...
The person pointed at was a square-faced man in his forties. His face remained calm as he walked over confidently.
“What are your skills?” the green-skinned giant asked.
“I have combat skills, I can stand guard and fight,” the man immediately replied.
“Combat skills?” The green-skinned giant’s face, looking down, suddenly showed a disdainful smile, “Are you sure you have combat skills?”
The man was momentarily stunned, not knowing how to respond.
“Alright, I’ll test you. If you really have combat skills, I’ll consider training you for a few days and then assign you to stand guard,” the green-skinned giant said with a cold laugh, his tone implying something else when he said “combat skills,” “And all of you, spread out and watch carefully. Think before you speak.”
Although there were over fifty writers and authors, and only about ten giants from the Qing Shi tribe, no one dared to object, all spreading out to form a semicircle.
In the center of the semicircle were the human man and the leader of the Qing Shi tribe.
“Then, let’s begin,” the leader said.
The human man activated his Heart Cloud Blood Star and constructed the basic constellation within his body.
It was broad daylight, and the Blood Star’s light was not prominent, but the few stars used to construct the constellation were easily visible to everyone. The constellation he constructed was the third one.
Out of caution, the human man crouched slightly, adopting a defensive stance.
Five meters away, the Qing Shi tribe leader looked down at the human man and said calmly, “Remember, my name is Dazha.”
The human man’s nerves were on edge, and he lowered his center of gravity even more.
In the next instant, everyone in the semicircle saw Dazha move.
Standing at two and a half meters tall, with a high center of gravity, Dazha’s movement was not at all clumsy but incredibly agile and swift!
He pushed off with his right foot, and almost everyone felt their eyes blur as his left leg swung forward and landed on the ground.
In just one step, he covered more than three meters of the five-meter distance!
Impossible!
Everyone’s first reaction was that it was impossible!
Dazha, standing at two and a half meters tall, had not jumped, yet how could he cover more than three meters in one step?!
But the fact was that Dazha had indeed done it.
Almost as soon as his left foot touched the ground, his center of gravity shifted to his left foot, and he continued moving forward.
The human man was shocked beyond measure and had to muster all his concentration to respond.
In the next moment, Dazha’s right leg swung forward!
His leather armor did not cover all his skin, and at this moment, the exposed green skin on his legs bulged, even shining and hard as iron! Most terrifyingly, his speed! Everyone only caught a glimpse of his right leg as it lifted, and then it transformed into a green blur!
“Bang!!!”
Dazha’s right foot struck the man’s crossed arms, which he had raised to block in front of his chest.
“Crack...”
The sound of bones breaking!
“Huff!”
Dazha’s right leg continued to push, and the man was lifted off the ground, flying backward like a cannonball!
“Bang!”
The man flew backward, hitting the ground after twenty meters, then bounced up and continued to fly backward, hitting the ground again after ten more meters, and then began rolling, finally stopping after another ten meters.
Forty meters!
Dazha had kicked a man, who had at least a Heart Cloud ten-star and constructed the third constellation, forty meters!
The entire scene was silent!
In the silence, everyone’s hearts were pounding, and their eyelids were twitching...
The middle-aged man who had flown forty meters was completely silent. The large amount of blood and flesh scattered along his path indicated that his internal organs were shattered, and he was dead.
When everyone looked at Dazha again, they were all chilled to the bone, as if they were looking at a demon!
Dazha had not activated any Heart Cloud Blood Star or anything; he had used his natural abilities!
So...
The Qing Shi tribe was at least a race with superhuman combat skills!
Dazha didn’t look at the corpse again and said to the crowd, “I don’t have much time, so be quick. You, come here and tell me what you can do.”
The person Dazha pointed at shrank back but still walked up with a stiff face.
This was a young man in his early twenties, but he didn’t dare say anything about having combat skills. He looked up at Dazha, who was over seventy centimeters taller than him, swallowed, and said, “I can write, do accounting, and keep various records.”
To everyone’s surprise, Dazha nodded, “Hmm, the tribe is short of such people. I hope you can do the job. Go to Dagou for now.”
One of the Qing Shi tribe warriors in the back row immediately shouted, “Come here.”
“Okay,” the young man quickly ran over.
“Next,” Dazha continued, waiting for the person to come close, “What are your skills?”
“I can also do accounting and statistics.”
“Good, you go to Dagou too.”
“Next...”
Anyone who could be a web writer definitely had some education, and who didn’t know basic arithmetic? One by one, they all went up and said they could do accounting.
Until the sixth person gave the same answer, Dazha suddenly said, “Five is enough. What else can you do?”
At that moment, everyone thought that the poor guy must have had a herd of grass mud horses running through his mind...
“I... I...”
Dazha, impatient, said, “Speak up!”
Facing Dazha was a man in his thirties with a darker complexion, who was almost as frantic as the previous Lu Nan.
Lu Nan was standing two meters to Bu Ye’s right front, with Ning Nie in between. Seeing the man stammering, he completely empathized and silently prayed for him, “Bro, you must hold on! But don’t say anything too ridiculous...”
At this moment, the man finally gave his answer, his eyes brightening, and he quickly said, “I can tell stories and soothe children. Does the tribe need someone to take care of children?”
Damn!
In such a serious situation, this answer made nearly a third of the people laugh.
Qi Yanbin was to Bu Ye’s left, his face turning red, and he finally burst out laughing.
To Qi Yanbin’s left, the tough woman Yang Ming was also blushing, muttering, “Too ridiculous.”
At this moment, Dazha asked suspiciously, “Are you sure?”
“Sure.”
“Alright, go to Damo.”
What the hell!
Even the Dazha clan had a Dama.
At the same time, a Qing Shi tribe warrior with short dark brown hair and a rugged face said, “Come here.”
Everyone thought, so this is what Dama looks like...
Then, everyone followed suit, and five or six more people said they could take care of children...
At this moment, Lu Nan, who was to Ning Nie’s right, couldn’t help but ask her, “Beautiful, do you want to volunteer?”
Ning Nie didn’t turn her head, looking at Dazha and said, “Let’s wait for him to call us.”
“There might not be any easy jobs left,” Lu Nan said.
“That’s better than dying...” Ning Nie replied.
Lu Nan was like that, naturally drawn to beautiful women. And to be fair, he was actually a considerate man. If they were on Earth, his care and consideration would easily move women. If not for his short-lived love, he wouldn’t be so bad.
Unfortunately, he had exposed himself from the beginning, and Ning Nie was already immune to his appearance and sweet talk...
Meanwhile, Bu Ye was frowning, watching Dazha, and even when everyone was laughing, he showed no reaction.
Dazha was to their left front, and when Ning Nie looked in that direction, her peripheral vision caught Bu Ye’s right profile. She finally noticed something was off and asked, “What’s wrong?”
This was because in a new environment, and with so many unfamiliar colleagues, Bu Ye and the others subconsciously became more united. Hearing Ning Nie’s question, Bu Ye didn’t hide it and said, “I’m thinking about Dazha’s first step.”
Ning Nie was taken aback, not quite understanding, but Qi Yanbin, who was to Bu Ye’s left, heard and immediately responded, “I also think his
