I made myself the protagonist

Chapter 329 Discussion
"Ning Jingxian and I met during the novice assessment task. He persuaded me to participate in this treasure hunt, and he also recruited eight newcomers from other bases to sign up."

Tong Bi said that he was hesitant at first, but he couldn't stand Ning Jingxian's repeated persuasion; plus he also had a gambler mentality, so he gritted his teeth and agreed.

Tong Bi is 27 years old this year and has practiced martial arts since he was a child. In real life, he once won the National Wushu Sanda Championship, and his physical fitness is different from ordinary people.

He met Ning Jingxian in the novice assessment. At that time, he was in a desperate situation, relying on the other party's mind to analyze the way out, and the two escaped at the last moment.After that, they performed a second mission together.

Therefore, Tong Bi believed in Ning Jingxian's ability and vision very much. During the days waiting to enter the game, he also asked the other party many times how the recruiting progress was and whether he wanted to meet those players.

But at this time, Ning Jingxian always swears that the person he is looking for is strong but very guarded, and he is reluctant to show up easily.He said that everyone is preparing for the game separately, and it is enough for Tong Bi to rest assured to train.

Unexpectedly, after entering the mission, Tong Bi realized that he had been fooled.

The "reliable teammates" that Ning Jingxian found were all newcomers who had just passed the first mission assessment!
"It's really hard to find such a group of naive guys these days. It's a matter of life and death, but that Ning Jingxian tricked him into it with just a few words." Zhao Sicheng couldn't help complaining.

"But if you think about it differently, if Brother Shen or Brother Ling asked me to discuss this matter when I returned to the base, I would have believed it." Wei Chongming scratched his head.

Tang Yao also recalled how Lin Yuanqi introduced the treasure hunting game to them as newcomers, and agreed with Wei Chongming: "Don't talk about them, I was also tempted at the time, wishing to sign up immediately, clear the customs and leave this ghost place."

Wei Chongming had a similar experience as Tong Bi. He compared his heart with his heart and felt deeply: "Everyone is a newcomer and has not experienced so many things. At the beginning, no one would think so badly about people or think too deeply about problems. Tong Bi and the others are not wrong, but that Ning Jingxian is wrong."

"That's right... that can only be said that they are unlucky." Zhao Sicheng glanced at Shen Tinglan and Ling Yun, and it was really rare for him to meet such a strong and kind-hearted companion.

"This Ning Jingxian is good at spying on people's hearts. He has caught everyone's eagerness to break away from the status quo. That's why he recruited so many newcomers."

Hubert was thoughtful: "It's understandable to want to gamble, but at least you have to find some strong players?! It's really irresponsible for him to do so!"

"Can you tell us what you have experienced after entering the mission? And Ning Jingxian, why did he disappear?" Ling Yun spoke first.

Ning Jingxian is not an important character in the book, but if he is a cannon fodder, he will never appear suddenly at this juncture.

Yes, Ling Yun discovered that what he had done had set off a dramatic butterfly effect, changing the direction of many things.

But one thing will basically not change: as long as you follow the protagonist Shen Tinglan, the plot centered on him and the key characters in the book will appear one by one.

Intuition told Ling Yun that there must be something tricky about this Ning Jingxian.

Not only Ling Yun, Hubert's words made Shen Tinglan and Su Li also aware of something strange: Unlike ordinary tasks, newcomers may be used by veterans to buy time for dead ghosts; but the treasure hunt game is all about the overall strength of the team , when it comes to choosing teammates, you must be extra cautious.

According to Tong Bi's description, Ning Jingxian quickly adapted to the rules of space, and collected a lot of information to do his homework. He is definitely a very smart person.

As smart as he is, if he really wanted to pass the treasure hunt game alive, why would he find a group of weak rookies as teammates?
Coupled with the fact that he disappeared mysteriously on the first night of the mission, Shen Tinglan always felt that it was not that simple behind all this.

Tong Bi's face was gloomy, and he stood there without saying a word.

Shen Tinglan glanced at the companions around him, and after getting support from everyone's eyes, he solemnly said: "The situation of your team is not optimistic now. Since everyone has met, and the destination is the same. Next, you will walk with us, Let’s talk about it after reaching the heart of the tree, how about it?”

Hearing this, Yu Yueyang swallowed in surprise.

He could tell that although they were young, the members of this team looked calm and composed. Obviously, they were all senior, and their strength was far from comparable to his own.If you follow this group of people, you might be able to pass the level by luck.

He was about to agree, but soon after thinking that there was a rule in the treasure hunt game where players kill each other, Yu Yueyang shook his head quickly: "No, it's no good to take us on the road... Instead, kill a few of us, what else can you do?" Bonus points! I don't believe you guys would be so kind!"

Shen Tinglan didn't explain anything.There is nothing wrong with Yu Yueyang's suspicion. He has been deceived so badly. Now whoever it is, he dare not trust others easily.

It's just that he has the same considerations as Ling Yun, and now some things must be confirmed from these people.

And since they have already appeared, and they are going the same way again, they are destined not to be able to get rid of these newcomers.The safest way right now is to take them by your side to watch, so as not to make other mistakes.

"What about you, would you like to cooperate with us?" Shen Tinglan looked directly at Tong Bi.According to the current situation, he is the only one who can take the decision.

Ever since the captain disappeared inexplicably, he left himself to flee with a group of rookies.Along the way, Tong Bi and others were attacked heavily, and four people were killed in succession; last night, a seriously injured young man in the team did not survive.

Zhao Kai, who realized later that he had been cheated, naturally took his grievances on himself.

Being in such a team with scattered hearts and weak strength, Tong Bi knew very well that they would not last long.

Now he is alone, bullied by his trusted companions and questioned by his teammates, his mind has long been a mess, and his heart is full of anger and has nowhere to vent.

If Shen Tinglan and others hadn't appeared just now, I'm afraid I would really have killed Zhao Kai on impulse because of self-defeating.

Contrary to what Yu Yueyang was worried about, Tong Bi knew that Shen Tinglan and the others were quite capable.

In the current situation, their team is at an absolute advantage.If he wanted to harm himself and the others, he would have done it directly, and there was no need to discuss it with them; even if the other party wanted to negotiate terms, he did not have the confidence to refuse.

But now, not only did that group of people not show any hostility or take advantage of the fire, but they understood their situation reasonably and sincerely wanted to cooperate with them.

It seems that there is no unparalleled road, and the appearance of Shen Tinglan and others may be the only hope for him to escape from danger.

Seeing the other party's decisive words, Tong Bi's eyes were slightly moved, and his tone was much more relaxed than before: "Let's go into the room and talk."

Shen Tinglan readily agreed, and followed Tong Bi into the wooden house with his companions.Ling Yun walked at the end of the line, saw Yu Yueyang was still standing there, staring at them vigilantly, so he walked towards him.

"Brother, don't be afraid. If you really want to kill someone, we won't talk nonsense with you."

Ling Yun helped Zhao Kai up, and carried Zhao Kai on his shoulders almost effortlessly.He tilted his head and smiled at the other party, with a relaxed tone: "Let's go, if you continue to freeze like this, this buddy must be sick."

Yu Yueyang expressed his composure, but he was surprised inwardly: Zhao Kai weighed about 150 kilograms, and now that he has passed out, he is as heavy as a lump of dead flesh.

It took me a long time to help him up just now, but although the man in front of me looks handsome, he has a strong physique and amazing strength, and he lifted Zhao Kai up with ease.
