[Main Mission Activated: Survive! (Newcomer's Trial)]
[Mission Objective: Survive in the Great Green Manor for more than seven days! Mission completed. You will be rewarded with 100 merit points! Note: Do not leave the Great Green Manor for the next seven days. Violators will be killed!]
[Introduction: In the ninth year of Taihe in Great Xia, the barbarians from the north have invaded and plunged the people into misery and suffering. At this time, a group of barbarian cavalry has broken through the defense line and is near the Great Green Manor. They are about to attack the manor. Live or die, you must make a choice!]
[Side Mission: Kill the invading enemy! In front of a powerful enemy, you will be rewarded with 50 merit points for every barbarian cavalry killed, 100 merit points for every warrior killed, and 300 merit points for every shaman killed!]
[Mission Setting: Small! Mission Difficulty: Barren!]
"Great Xia?!"
Kang Shouli exclaimed. "Before the Dazhou was the Shang Dynasty, and before the Shang Dynasty was the Great Xia! Have we returned to history? How is that possible? "
'It's impossible to return to history, but it's possible that they created a small world and intercepted a part of that great war?'
Wu Ming's heart skipped a beat as he looked at the others.
After hearing about the barbarian invasion mission, Huang Ying and the rest's expressions changed, especially Xiao Yu, who exclaimed in a low voice, "Shamans are the combination of witch doctors and priests in the grasslands. They can use witchcraft! And the warriors of the Great Green Manor are the strongest of the barbarian tribes … We … "
It seemed that this girl had gradually accepted reality and was even considering the possibility of completing the mission.
"The barbarian cavalry is ferocious. Everywhere they pass, not even a blade of grass is left! They are also unparalleled in riding and archery. I'm afraid we'll have to work together to take down one of them! "
Qin Hu took two steps forward. It was obvious that he wanted to work together with Wu Ming.
"As expected!"
Wu Ming looked over. Huang Ying had an expectant look on her face, and even Kang Shouli did not say anything.
In a disaster, it was instinctive to obey the strong.
The little bit of unhappiness from before was like a speck of dust, quickly buried by these people.
Seeing this, Wu Ming shook his head.
These people from all over the world did not even trust each other. How could they work together to fight against a strong enemy?
Therefore, he did not have much expectations for this group of teammates. Now that he heard it was a survival mission, his heart tightened at first, but he soon relaxed.
What made them nervous was that the Main Shrine had estimated that they were far weaker than the Hu cavalry. That was why they had given them a survival mission. There were no other requirements, but it was clearly more difficult.
It was easy, but there was no need to evaluate them as a whole, so they wouldn't be implicated by useless teammates.
But at this time, maintaining the unity on the surface and integrating everyone's strength was still better than being alone.
Wu Ming pointed at the village in his field of vision. "Is that the Great Green Manor? Should we go and check out the situation first? "
Suddenly, his expression froze.
That was because the smoke in the air began to rise again. A cool breeze brushed past, and the leaves rustled. The entire world seemed to have come alive in an instant.
[Ding! Main mission begins. Instant mission issued!]
[Instant Mission: Arrive! You need to arrive at the Great Green Manor within the time it takes to burn a stick of incense. Otherwise, you will fail the mission!]
A message appeared in the minds of Wu Ming and the others. There was even a sundial-like device with the needle spinning quickly.
Wu Ming and the others were stunned at first. The words "mission failure" really gave them an extremely bad premonition.
"Let's go!"
Qin Hu was the first to pounce. He was a member of a gang and was very practical. He believed that the fist was the truth.
Regardless of whether this was a joke or a conspiracy, just the fact that the other party could send information directly into his mind made him accept it even if it was obvious that they were toying with him!
"There is no penalty for failure in the main mission, because those who fail will die … but now …"
Xiao Yu and Huang Ying looked at each other and smiled bitterly as they watched Qin Hu's receding figure.
Huang Ying looked at Kang Shouli with a pleading gaze. Kang Shouli felt his bones soften. "If Miss Huang doesn't mind …"
"I can't thank Young Master Kang enough for helping me. Why would I mind?"
Huang Ying graciously hugged Kang Shouli's arm. Her soft voice immediately made Kang Shouli feel very heroic. "Miss Huang, don't worry. With me here, no one will be able to make things difficult for you!"
Although he was a playboy, comparable to the previous Wu Ming, and was also addicted to wine and women, he was still at the second stage of the Martial Path. He was at the Flesh Realm and had developed muscles. He was more than enough to carry someone.
"Looks like I'll have to carry you!"
Wu Ming touched his nose. He grabbed Xiaoyu by the collar and strode forward. With a few leaps, he surpassed Kang Shouli and chased after Qin Hu.
"Big Brother Nameless, thank you!"
Although she was being held by the collar like a child, Xiaoyu had a sweet smile on her face.
At this moment, observing from a close distance, Wu Ming could even feel that this girl's breath was like orchids. Her skin was fair and delicate, even better than the best porcelain doll.
"Miss Xiaoyu, you haven't told me your full name!"
As Wu Ming ran, he still had the mood to ask leisurely.
Xiaoyu's mischievous eyes turned and she imitated Wu Ming's tone from before. "The Jianghu is a dangerous place. I don't keep any details to myself! Ouch … "
Before she could finish speaking, her forehead was hit by Wu Ming and she could not help but cry out in pain.
The girl, who knew how powerful he was, immediately became much more well-behaved. However, she still muttered unwillingly, "If I had brought my hundred treasures pouch with me, I wouldn't have …"
Suddenly, she seemed to know that she had made a mistake and stopped talking.
Wu Ming did not mind. From the way she spoke, he knew that this girl was not of an ordinary background. However, when he heard that her item, which seemed to be a Taoist technique, was rejected like his, a look of deep thought flashed across his face.
The time it took for a joss stick to burn was neither long nor short. For ordinary people, especially girls like Huang Ying who did not have the strength to truss a chicken, running to the Great Azure Manor was as difficult as ascending to the heavens. However, for people like Wu Ming who practiced martial arts and had several levels of martial arts, it was not a problem.
When they passed by the boundary stone with the words "Great Azure Manor" and arrived at the village entrance, Wu Ming's mind received an instant notification that the mission had been completed.
Slowly exhaling, Wu Ming put Xiaoyu down.
"Thank you, Brother Nameless. You're such a good person!"
Xiaoyu thanked him with a grin and looked in Kang Shouli's direction with an anxious expression. "Hurry, it's almost time!"
At that moment, in their minds, the needle of the sundial was about to hit zero!
Looking at the two figures and the obvious strenuous expression on Kang Shouli's face, Wu Ming's eyes flickered. "With Kang Shouli's speed, he might be able to catch up. Should I …"
Qin Hu laughed sinisterly and suddenly stood up, blocking the boundary stone.
"What are you trying to do?" Xiaoyu's face was filled with wariness.
"What am I trying to do?" Qin Hu laughed coldly. "Naturally, I'm trying to see if this mission is real or fake. Or perhaps you're just trying to trick us … "
As he spoke, he had already taken out a few stones and was about to take aim.
"Wait!"
However, Wu Ming suddenly spoke.
"How is it? Isn't this what Brother Nameless wants to try as well? "Qin Hu said coldly." I'm just pointing out the method … "
"Even so, there are still many opportunities to try. This isn't the time!"
Wu Ming shook his head.
Qin Hu looked at Wu Ming, his eyes almost emitting a cold glow. Suddenly, he laughed loudly. "Fine! I'll give Brother Nameless some face today! "
"Whoosh, whoosh …"
As the two of them watched from the side, Kang Shouli finally crossed the boundary stone with Huang Ying before time ran out. His face was filled with joy. "Thank you, Brother Nameless, for saving me!"
"Humph!"
Especially Kang Shouli. He had seen Qin Hu's actions just now, and his eyes were practically spitting fire.
"How is it? You're not convinced and want to try fighting me? I've been displeased with noble young masters like you for a long time! "
Qin Hu laughed savagely. His fierce gaze directly looked over, causing Kang Shouli's forehead to turn numb. He retreated continuously, almost shrinking behind Wu Ming.
'This guy … Does he think that he can do whatever he wants after coming to the new world?'
Wu Ming watched coldly from the side, but he somewhat grasped Qin Hu's mentality.
At this moment, the benefits of still wearing a peaceful exterior were displayed. Qin Hu's actions were clearly pushing the few people to his side.
Of course, perhaps in Qin Hu's eyes, everyone else apart from Wu Ming was a burden. However, Wu Ming did not see it that way. After all, everyone had their own strengths and values.
Hence, he immediately adopted the attitude of a peacemaker. "Everyone, let's not talk too much. Right now, we should still consider how to interact with the people here …"
He pointed at the surroundings.
Only then did Qin Hu and the others realize that they were outside the village. They could not leave or stop, and they had already attracted the attention of the villagers. In fact, some of the able-bodied people were even gathering quickly.
In this chaotic world, no matter where the people were, they were always tough and good at defending themselves. Otherwise, they would have long been swallowed up by the various forces.
"In my opinion, they're very wary of outsiders! They're just waiting for the person in charge to come … "
Wu Ming glanced at the villagers who were pointing at them and said in a low voice, "Before that, it's best that we speak the same language! After all … if we're treated as enemies by the Great Green Manor and chased out, then we'll really have no one to help us! "
Under the pressure of life and death, even Qin Hu had to lower his head and cooperate with Kang Shouli, who felt that he had been greatly humiliated.
"Haha … Dear guests, please come from afar. This old man has been impolite!"
Sure enough, after a while, a red-faced, white-haired old man came out to welcome them, followed by a few young men. He cupped his hands in greeting and said, "This old man is Wang Qiao, the village head. May I know your names and where are you from?"
The few of them looked at each other, and Wu Ming stood up. "Greetings, sir. We are …"
After the urgent collusion, Wu Ming and the other four people's identities were finally explained. According to Wu Ming, he and Kang Shouli were young masters of aristocratic families from other counties. They had brought their beautiful concubines and maids with them, but unfortunately, they encountered the Hu cavalry and were scattered. Only these few people were left.
Of course, Huang Ying and Xiao Yu were the wives and maids. As for Qin Hu, his appearance was too unflattering, so he could only say that he was a guard.
"What? The Hu? "
Village Head Wang Qiao's expression changed. There was even a commotion behind him, but he quickly calmed down and said, "Dear guests, please forgive us! It's just that the Hu disaster is getting worse, and the boys are frightened. We've made a fool of ourselves. Please come in and serve us some tea, and let this old man entertain you well … "
