Zhou Wen thought for a moment and felt that it wasn't a bad idea to go to Chess Mountain. He could also find the tiny palm symbol and see if he could download Chess Mountain into the game.
Just as An Sheng had said, the more he understood dimensional creatures, the higher the chances of survival would be when dimensional creatures broke out on a large scale in the future.
This was the best opportunity to head to Chess Mountain while the dimensional creatures in Chess Mountain hadn't rushed out on a large scale. The situation would only get worse in the future. It wouldn't be that easy to head there again.
"Just treat it as a vacation and take a look around. It won't be too late to return to school after resolving Ják's matter," An Sheng said.
"Alright, when do we set off?" Zhou Wen asked.
"To prevent any accidents from happening, let's do it now." An Sheng looked at Zhou Wen and said, "Don't tell me you still want to return to school to greet your classmates? Wouldn't that be equivalent to telling Ják who is more effective in threatening you? "
Zhou Wen thought for a moment and felt that it made sense. He immediately gave up on returning to school and followed An Sheng to Chess Mountain.
Chess Mountain wasn't far from Luoyang City, so it didn't take long for Zhou Wen to arrive at Chess Mountain's encampment with An Sheng.
As the situation at Chess Mountain was worsening, Qin Wufu had been transferred here and was temporarily in charge of guarding Chess Mountain.
"Adjutant An, are you sure you want Zhou Wen to join the newly formed team?" After An Sheng introduced Zhou Wen to Qin Wufu, Qin Wufu sized up Zhou Wen with a strange expression.
"Yes," An Sheng answered with certainty.
"You can, but you should know the situation of that team. The members are rather complicated …" Qin Wufu knew Zhou Wen and knew of his relationship with the An family, so he spoke more tactfully. Otherwise, he would've directly refused to join the team.
After all, Zhou Wen was only a student, and his newly formed team was used to guard Chess Mountain. The members inside were all at the Epic stage.
An Sheng could tell that Qin Wufu was worried, so he said, "You know Zhou Wen's situation. Because of Wang Mingyuan, the bureau has been finding trouble with him. Therefore, Madam got him here mainly because she hopes that you can take care of him … Actually, it's just a matter of a few days. Madam has other arrangements and will soon let him return …"
Qin Wufu immediately felt a headache. Guarding Chess Mountain was enough of a headache for him. Now, he had to take care of Zhou Wen, who had connections.
However, Qin Wufu couldn't disregard Ouyang Lan and reluctantly agreed to accept Zhou Wen. However, he rejected Zhou Wen from joining the team. He only said that he could stay here for a few days and that he didn't need to do anything.
Zhou Wen didn't mind. He was only staying here for a few days. Once he resolved Ják's problem, he would return to school.
Therefore, Zhou Wen stayed at the Chess Mountain encampment. As he didn't have a position and wasn't a soldier, he didn't need to be on duty. No one cared about him, so it suited Zhou Wen's intentions.
That day, Zhou Wen went outside the Chess Mountain encampment to take a look. He saw that Chess Mountain was shrouded in fog, preventing him from seeing anything clearly. The mountain pass was like a monster in the fog with its mouth wide open.
As for the river water that flowed out of Chess Mountain, it was as red as blood. An Sheng told him that it had been like this a few months ago.
"Which unit are you from? What are you doing here? " Zhou Wen slowly walked along the riverbank alone. Just as he was searching for the tiny palm symbol, an officer leading the patrol team stopped him.
Zhou Wen showed the identification card Qin Wufu had given him. The officer took it and immediately felt a sense of respect. After saluting, he handed the identification card back to Zhou Wen with both hands. "So it's Doctor Little Zhou. What are you doing here?"
On the identification card Qin Wufu had given him, it was written that he was an intern doctor. Although he was only an intern doctor, doctors were rather respected in the military. No one could guarantee that they wouldn't be injured on the battlefield. When the time came, they would definitely need a doctor's help.
Generally speaking, those who could become military doctors all possessed healing abilities. This kind of ability was exceptionally rare and precious on the battlefield. Even intern doctors were a rare species.
The officer didn't know that Zhou Wen wasn't even an intern doctor. This identity was given to him by Qin Wufu at the last minute to make it easier for him to stay in the military camp.
"I'm just here to take a look around this river," Zhou Wen said casually.
When the officer heard Zhou Wen's words, he imagined that Zhou Wen was investigating and taking samples. Hence, he sighed and said, "Doctor Little Zhou, you have to investigate carefully. There's indeed something wrong with this river's water. Recently, many of our soldiers have red rashes on their bodies. The more we patrol near the river, the fiercer it gets. Although that thing isn't too harmful and as long as we don't get close to the river, it will recover in two days. However, the itch is just too strong.
We can't avoid patrolling. "" Have you tried wearing a filter mask? " Although Zhou Wen wasn't a real doctor, he still knew some basic knowledge, so he asked in passing.
"I've tried it. It's completely useless. I've even worn protective clothing, but it's still useless. As long as I approach this river, the rashes will still appear," the officer said.
Zhou Wen really didn't know much. Just as he was thinking about how to send them away so that he could continue searching for the tiny palm symbol, he saw a soldier panting as he ran over from the mountain pass.
When the officer saw the soldier, he immediately went forward and asked, "Why aren't you guarding the sentry post? Why did you come back?"
"Liu Gui … He suddenly fainted … I can't wake him up no matter what … There are so many red rashes on his body …" the soldier said as he panted.
"What … Quickly find a doctor … Coincidentally, Doctor Little Zhou is here … Quickly follow us to take a look …" The officer recalled that Zhou Wen was an intern doctor and pulled him towards the mountain pass.
Zhou Wen's face turned livid. He was an impostor. How could he know any medical skills? It would be a miracle if he could tell anything.
However, he hadn't denied it previously, so it wasn't appropriate for him to say anything now. He thought that he wouldn't say anything when he reached the place and just get them to send him to the medical team.
The sentry post was the closest reconnaissance point to Chess Mountain. Usually, there would be two soldiers standing guard to monitor the nearby situation.
When Zhou Wen arrived at the sentry post, he realized that it was indeed very close to Chess Mountain's mountain pass. He could vaguely see the cliff at the mountain pass.
There was a soldier lying in the sentry post. When Zhou Wen saw his face, he was given a fright. There were many red rashes on his face, and some of them had already begun to fester. They looked like spots of blood on his face.
"What's going on? Why is his rashes so serious? "the officer asked another soldier.
The soldier didn't dare to hide anything and told him the truth. "Originally, we were supposed to change shifts every three days, so we could only guard here for three days at most. However, Liu Gui had something to do and switched shifts with his comrades. Including today, he has been guarding here for seven days straight."
