When Lu Ning and others ran upstairs, they discovered that there were already many people in the corridor on the second floor of the dormitory. Not everyone was as obviously armed as the boys and girls before, and more of them even had decent weapons. No.
The few people were easily dragged down by Yan Rong. It was obviously a one-on-five group fight. Yan Rong used the mop pole and his own movement to deal with several young students with ease. The three people who used melee weapons, including the boy, were always knocked off the edge before they even took action. The girl who used the heavy crossbow and the other boy who held a pistol did not dare to shoot. Yan Rong's positioning Always stuck in a place where someone of your own is blocking the trajectory.
"Hey, don't be so angry. I just came here to take shelter from the rain, and I didn't want to do anything to you."
After hearing Yan Rong's words, Lu Ning knew why Zhou Weiyuan said she was not good at negotiation.
"Everyone, can we stop? We are all human beings. Are there any irreconcilable conflicts?" Zhou Weiyuan quickly stood up.
Only then did people realize that another group of people had walked in, with different expressions on their faces, including surprise, fear, and disgust. The few people who were besieging Yan Rong suddenly froze, and Yan Rong instantly threw out his stick and hit three targets. On the man's wrist, three weapons fell to the ground almost at the same time.
"Can the two of you over there put down your guns and crossbows? I would be nervous even if I were targeted by something like that." Yan Rong, who had no nervous expression on his face, lowered his stick and shrugged.
The girl slowly lowered her arms and asked coldly: "Who are you?"
"Students who just came here, I don't know what happened."
"How can students be so good!" A boy said angrily, covering his wrist, "We are all..."
"Abin!" The boy named Zijian immediately warned, and then the boy shut up.
Then, he walked up to Zhou Weiyuan.
"My name is Teng Zijian, and I am the leader here. It's not easy to talk here. How about we change places?"
"Of course... everyone?" Zhou Weiyuan looked around.
"All of you, Abin, take everyone back. Uncle Zhen, Liu Shan, and Qi Guang follow me to the activity room on this floor."
Teng Zijian waved his hand quickly. His authority was pretty good, and everyone immediately left as instructed. However, before leaving, some people still looked at Lu Ning and others with strange eyes.
The activity room is a slightly larger room. In the middle is a large table made of several tables. Many of the seats have been damaged. Only a few are still good. Teng Zijian pulled one himself and signaled Zhou Weiyuan to be there. The other one sat down, while several of his companions stood around and either stood against the wall or sat directly on the table.
Lu Ning and others walked behind Zhou Weiyuan.
"Let's go back to the original question. First of all, although we can't defeat you, it's okay if we try our best, so don't think you've got us under control." Teng Zijian said with a straight face, "Who are you? Students are not Maybe with this kind of psychological quality, we have experienced many things before we can face the monsters outside."
Zhou Weiyuan smiled, took out his student ID card and threw it to him: "We are really students, but we are not so panicked due to personal reasons. You have also seen our strength. Before encountering real drastic changes, We won’t panic, right?”
"That's a monster!" said the older Uncle Zhen, "I don't believe that ordinary people can face monsters without panicking!"
"Are you that obsessed with this issue? Is it a bad thing to have a strong psychological quality? Or...is there something else hidden?" Zhou Weiyuan narrowed his eyes.
At this time, Teng Zijian also finished checking Zhou Weiyuan's student ID card and glanced at the others: "Do you still have the ID cards of these people?"
"This is not something I can order. It depends on everyone's willingness." Zhou Weiyuan turned his head, Yan Rong readily took out his ID card, and Lu Ning took out her student ID card after thinking for a moment.
After reading them one by one, Teng Zijian finally nodded.
"Zijian, are you reliable?"
"It's a certificate we've never seen before. The form is the same. The date is about two to seven years later than ours. It seems that the school has replaced it with a new card." Teng Zijian raised his hand, and there was a small card reader, "Unless they specially find a businessman to forge this set of identity cards...otherwise they are really a new batch of unlucky people."
"Oh? It sounds like you have a way to confirm your identity?" Zhou Weiyuan raised his eyebrows, "Then the medicine before..."
"If you take that medicine, we can trust you 100%. You have seen some monsters when you have come here, and there are some that can disguise themselves as humans. We have suffered losses." Teng Zijian returned the identity card They said, "Keep it carefully, this thing will still be useful."
"Now can we ask what happened here? It's been almost two hours since we discovered something was wrong, but we still don't know anything other than meeting a monster." Zhou Weiyuan said.
"We don't know what to say because we are not sure what happened and have no idea how to escape," Teng Zijian said.
"Then you can answer our questions?" Lu Ning suddenly spoke, "As long as you can answer it, just answer it as much as you can. As you can see, our strength is pretty good. If we understand this world, we can also help you."
"Ha... help, okay, what do you want to know?" Teng Zijian smiled bitterly.
"How long have you spent here?" Lu Ning got to the point directly.
Hearing this question, Teng Zijian was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at the people behind him. Finally, Liu Shan spoke: "Nearly nine months."
"Wait a minute, you just said that our certificates are two to seven years late. What's going on here for nine months?" Zhou Weiyuan asked.
"The time here is not synchronized with the outside, but every time a new person is brought in, you can know how long it has been outside by asking the time." Liu Shan said, "In addition, you will soon be able to experience the time laws of this world. Arrived and it was chaos.”
"Then let me ask the second question." Yan Rong coughed lightly, "Do you know the details of that guy in the sky outside? What is it?"
"Are you talking about [Rain Master]? It is the real controller of this rain world, and it is also the strongest monster here. Don't challenge that guy just because you think you have some fighting skills, it is simply invincible."
"Rain Master? How do you know its name?" Yan Rong asked.
"This kind of information can be purchased. You can buy basic information from a merchant." Teng Zijian replied.
"Who is the merchant? Is that where we spend the coins we took from killing monsters?" Xu Jianqi asked.
"The merchant will appear at the end of time. As long as you find it, you can use the money you have accumulated to purchase items and information. But don't think about it if you don't have money. Although the merchant is very dark, without it, none of us would be alive today. ." Teng Zijian sighed, thought for a while and added, "With your skills, you can save some armed expenses."
"Is there anyone else here besides you?" Cang Su spoke tremblingly.
"Yes, there are a lot of survivors in the Rain World. After all, the trajectory of the Rain Master's movements can be predicted, and he is not too aggressive. Other monsters always have ways to fight against them. But after all, they will not always be so lucky."
"What do you mean, there are other worlds?" Qin Yulou continued to ask.
"This involves time here... Once the time ends, the world we are in will be forced to switch, and you will feel the same feeling as the end of the world." Teng Zijian grinned, "The rain world is recognized The gentlest world, suitable for rest and adjustment, you don’t know how happy we are to find that we have switched here this time.”
After hearing this, everyone began to look at each other. It was expected that the world would switch, but if this world is the gentlest, does that mean that the real scene test has not yet begun?
"Sorry, I wanted to ask what other worlds there are."
Teng Zijian shook his head at this time.
"can not say?"
"No, exchange for things." Teng Zijian said, "I can tell you some basic common sense. After all, with your ability, you will understand after a little experience. But for the situation in other worlds, we have to exchange our lives and blood for it. Yes, it is impossible to inform for free in any case.”
It can be seen that Teng Zijian was still a little nervous after saying these words, but this is natural for tourists.
In a sense, the thinking of both parties is somewhat similar.
"This is a reasonable request, but we can't get anything valuable right now." Zhou Weiyuan took out the fish-man's white ball and put it on the table, "We only have this, we got it from killing a fish-man before. thing, and relied on it to escape a monster's trap."
"The fish-man orb." Cryptomeria raised his eyes and said the name, "It has the effect of avoiding water for twelve hours, but the effect will become weaker and weaker due to the loss of activity. It can be eaten, and it is probably worth it at the merchants. Three copper coins.”
Three copper coins...
There were five more coins in the bag that Yan Rong got. From this point of view, this thing is really worthless, or the businessman is really shady.
"You can stay here temporarily, but you must also be responsible for the defense of the dormitory area, because there are always monsters that can get in and attack people. As for other worlds, exchange them for money or items of equivalent value. Two hundred copper coins for a message, I There will be no price reduction," Teng Zijian said.
"You are asking us to be free bodyguards." Ning Yeyi shook his head, "Then how did you people get together? Why don't those people outside have a good attitude towards our arrival? Generally speaking, in You should be happy to see a capable human being in a place like this, right?"
"Two words, resources." Teng Zijian pointed at himself, then at Liu Shan, Uncle Zhen and Qi Guang, "We didn't know each other at first. We were even afraid and frightened. We only went hunting when we had no other choice. Kill monsters, save money little by little to exchange for things, and arm yourself. But there are still a few people like us."
Uncle Zhen nodded and said: "They only dare to kill some monsters with obvious weaknesses and easy to kill. This is understandable for the sake of life, but in this way, the accumulation speed will be very slow, and such weak monsters will not If you do this, you are actually robbing others of their resources."
"Hey, this is the situation, do you still care about this?" Qin Yulou couldn't help but said.
"The more you care about it at times like this, you will die if you are not careful. Many people will accept the slower but stable method. In this regard, even if your force is stronger than ours, it is meaningless. You are newcomers and have no response. You also have to accumulate monster knowledge, weapons, and skills from scratch, and the number of resources is limited."
Teng Zijian stood up and nodded slightly to everyone: "But I know very well that your quality is very good, at least much better than us at the beginning... Please be careful and don't challenge the Rain Master. If you switch after two or three times, If you are still alive, we can probably become very good friends."
Then, he bowed slightly and left the activity room with his companions.
After a short silence, Lu Ning spoke first.
"We are obviously rivals competing for resources, but we still have to stick together. Have you noticed the looks in those people's eyes?"
Everyone nodded.
Hidden behind those emotions is greed. This is not the regular elimination method in the distribution center, but a real chaotic elimination system. Not only are newcomers like Lu Ning and Yan Rong regarded as opponents, but even Teng Zijian and others themselves are regarded as up for grabs. The goal?
The things I just mentioned, intelligence, weapons, and supplies, are all up for grabs. It doesn't matter if you progress slowly. If you can inherit all the inheritance of a fast person, it will be an improvement... I'm afraid more than one person thinks so.
But Teng Zijian and others couldn't leave the team. A group of five people was too weak to survive in such a world. No matter how useless those people were, they still managed to survive the initial period. The value of providing early warnings still existed, and the team The power of a person is always greater than that of an individual.
"The survivors here all live in this way, so we have to change our attitude a little bit." Zhou Weiyuan whispered, "Yan Rong, do you have any ideas?"
"Save money."
"..."
"It's obvious, isn't it? The monsters here are definitely not all poor monsters like fishmen. We can make trouble for other monsters, not to mention that if we can't defeat them, we can't steal them? Don't tell me that you are not greedy for the equipment of those few. I want to use a serious spear instead!"
Zhou Weiyuan rubbed his temples and suddenly smiled. Following closely behind, Lu Ning and Rong Han also laughed, then Ning Yeyi, Qin Yulou...
They are indeed thinking too much. Before solving the fundamental problem, solving scene problems and other problems are only plans later. Now that they have a way to arm themselves, they should first solve the personal safety problem and then think about other things. Only then can they be promoted. The idea of level test.
"Everyone, we need to accumulate enough funds before we meet the businessman next time. This is the first step of the plan. Do you all agree?"
Everyone, including the most timid Cang Su, smiled at this time.
